FolderCache 6.3.8.1
MilesAhead:
You should probably change the name - when seeing cache, I half expected some file/disk caching stuff rather than "just" a list of used folders :) (oh, how I wish somebody would make a NT version of "vramdir"...)

When I see Disk Cache I expect a disk cache. When I see folder cache, I expect a folder cache. Sorry to disappoint. :) 'sides, then I'd have to do something more difficult with the icon. Typing a dollar sign is easy.-MilesAhead (April 23, 2009, 07:32 PM)

I'd have opted to simply call it an MRU list, but that's just me. And after all, the name doesn't detract from it's usefulness :)

True enough. :) I spent a lot of time on Delphi 5 XMon explorer folder monitor but the thing I didn't like about using it was having to scroll horizontally to read long paths. I'd have to reinstall Delphi 5 to update it and I've installed that compiler too many dozens of times. The monitor engine was in AutoIt3 anyway, so I figured I'd give the GUI a shot.
If you notice any bugs please let me know.
MilesAhead:
Please download v. 1.3. It fixes a bug introduced in 1.2 that hangs the window when the folder max option is adjusted. Minor brain cramp. Should be good now. :)
Edit: Updated to 1.4. Made the window a bit taller and updated Readme file a bit. On my machine 24 folders fits nicely without scrolling. I think it's pretty stable now. :)
MilesAhead:
Latest build has a minor fix, if the folder file doesn't have a number for the max folder option on the first line. It's been updated on the page.
MilesAhead:
v. 1.5 Added code to prevent opening 2 instances of the cache window.
Edit: hopefully this is stabilized now. Heres a list of changes
MilesAhead:
hey looks like martin at ghacks likes it:

Hmmmmm nice to get the write-up but I wonder if he actually used it? Afaik double-click in the Listbox does nothing. Quite a "delay" indeed!! heh heh
