How to quickly autonumber text lists?

;D ;D
Oh my goodness! Thanks so much for posting that. I've always wondered how the process went. And it was funny as hell.
skwire, thanks so much for doing this, I wish I could repay you somehow.
Sorry I haven't been keeping up. I'm spending a week on vacation at my university and I'm using the time to work on other academic/business projects.

I thought you might all appreciate this conversation from the chat channel, to give you a fly-on-the-wall view of how real software development takes place and how software evolves:-mouser (October 19, 2010, 05:19 PM)

...and you guys thought it was all planned and orderly... :P

Give this a whirl, superboyac: List Numberer download
Currently, it does not save any settings. This release is more to see if this is what you had in mind...consider this a beta NANY entry. =] Anyway, play with it and let me know what you think. Also, names for this application are welcome. It's been a while, Cranioscopical...what say you? =]

skwire, this program is excellent. Thanks for doing it, that was very nice of you. I think it works very well. My only comment is how to add a 'Tab' character in the prefix or suffix? I'm guessing it can be done with a unicode character, but I can't find it. Since the tab character is fairly common, I would suggest you add a button that will conveniently add the tab character to the fields (prefix/suffix).
As for the name, I actually really like "List Numberer". It's clear and has a little charm to it. When I get home, I'll look for an icon for it and send it to you, and you can use it in place of the ahk icon, if you like.

In my current build, I have those two edit controls set to insert a tab character when the tab key is used. However, you will lose the ability to tab out of that control to the next one. Make sense?

Don't worry about the icon since this is a preview/beta build. I'm going to submit it as a NANY app and will dress it up then with my typical Skwire Empire stuff.
