Description
At times in the past, I've had some upload issues with my home internet connection. To help show my ISP that the issue was with their peering, and not my equipment, I had written a quick'n'dirty script which ran speedtests to various Speedtest.net servers all over the world.  sSpeedtest replaces that script, and is a Speedtest.net GUI application which allows you to build a list of Speedtest.net servers and easily run speedtests on all of them.

Features

• Uses the Speedtest.net CLI found here: https://www.speedtest.net/apps/cli
• Add as many Speedtest.net servers as you would like. To find out the server ID of a Speedtest.net server, follow the guide here: https://www.dcmember...dtest-net-server-id/
• Includes an option to quickly add a group of Speedtest.net servers closest to you.

Planned Features

• Export options.

Usage
Installation
Download the zip file and extract its contents into a new folder.  Run sSpeedtest.exe.

Uninstallation
Exit the application and delete the folder you unzipped it to.  No changes are made to the registry.

Description
Add battery percentage to window titlebar text.  Also adds a battery icon to the system tray to show battery life.

Features

• Currently, it updates every fifteen seconds (will be made configurable at some point).
• A plus in front of the battery glyph (+🔋) shows that you're charging (plugged in) while a minus (-🔋) shows that you're discharging (not plugged in).
• Exiting from the tray icon should clean up the title bar text.
• Not all title bars are modifiable, so some windows won't show the battery percentage information.
• Windows that constantly update their title bar text, like some text editors, will remove the battery info. However, the fifteen second timer will bring it back.

Planned Features

• Configurable refresh timer.
• Auto-start with Windows option.

N.A.N.Y. 2018 / NANY 2018 Release: SubAHK

« on: January 01, 2018, 02:09 AM »

NANY 2018 Entry Information

Application Name	SubAHK
Supported OSes	Windows 7 (Probably works, but not tested, on Windows XP/Vista/8/10)
Web Page	Website
Download Link	Download
Author	Jody Holmes (Skwire Empire)

Description
Subsonic desktop client. I’ve run my own personal Subsonic server for many years and make use of several different clients depending on platform. However, none have the sort of easy playlist manipulation I want, so I started writing SubAHK.

• To make use of SubAHK, you must run, or have access to, a fully licensed Subsonic server (or use one of the license-not-needed forks mentioned below). That said, please consider running the official Subsonic product and supporting its author with a paid Premium License.
• SubAHK is not feature complete at this time. This release of SubAHK only has the playlist manipulation features I wanted. That is, currently, it doesn’t even support playback of files. I do plan to further develop SubAHK as time allows.
• SubAHK makes use of the official Subsonic API. Therefore, I have no idea if it works with any of the Subsonic forks out there such as MadSonic, AirSonic, etc. If these forks support the official Subsonic API, they should work. No promises, though.

Screenshots



Usage
Installation
Download the zip file and extract its contents into a new folder.  Run SubAHK.exe and choose Options from the menu.  Enter your server credentials and off you go.

Uninstallation
Exit the application and delete the folder you unzipped it to.

N.A.N.Y. 2018 / NANY 2018 Release: WHAT (Windows Hotkey Activator Tool)

« on: January 01, 2018, 01:19 AM »

NANY 2018 Entry Information

Application Name	WHAT (Window Hotkey Activator Tool)
Supported OSes	Windows 7 (Probably works, but not tested, on Windows XP/Vista/8/10)
Web Page	Website
Download Link	Download
Author	Jody Holmes (Skwire Empire)

Description
Assign hotkeys to activate/focus windows.  This was a recent request by stisev on 2017-12-20; the original thread was here.

Screenshots




Usage
Installation
Download the zip file and extract its contents into a new folder.  Run What.exe to start the application.

Notes

• The window matching comprises the following criteria: process name, window title, and window class.  You will almost certainly have to play around a bit with the text to get certain windows to activate and, even then, some may not.  Furthermore, you do not need to use all three criterion for a given hotkey.  Don't be afraid to experiment.
• While the add/edit hotkey dialog is open, all hotkeys are disabled.  They are enabled after you click the save button or close the add/edit hotkey dialog.
• Checkboxes in the main list enable and disable individual hotkeys.
• You can assign the same hotkey to multiple entries and it will activate all the windows in top-down order.  You can easily change the order in the list.
• Check out the Options menu for a few usability options.
• The hotkey selection GUI is such that you can specify just about any combination of keys, mouse buttons, and modifiers.  Go crazy.

Uninstallation
Exit the application and delete the folder you unzipped it to.
