Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Windows Shell Add-on/Hack To Enable Regular Expressions Support.

« on: November 18, 2006, 11:46 AM »

Yes it's me again, the one obsessed with Regular Expressions. 

This would certainly increase productivity and usability of Windows if it suddenly supported Regular Expressions.

Donations, more than just the ones that I have in my profile are available for the proper implementaion of this idea.

Thank you.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Firefox Profile Sync.

« on: November 15, 2006, 04:15 PM »

I am sure lots of others out there other than me have several computer that they would like to see their Firefox profiles synced between them.

I know that there are around a dozen Firefox bookmark sync services, but never seen a Firefox profile sync.
Netscape did have a "Roaming Profile" feature which was helpful, but that is no longer there, and Seammonkey has it now, but I am more interested in using Firefox than Seamonkey.

A profile sync that includes themes, add-ons, extensions and bookmarks would be a great thing to have.
I am currently using FEBE (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2109/) and a script to download and install on other computers, but that's hardly efficient, and bugs are sometimes causing me headaches.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: RSS News Reader With Filtering

« on: October 31, 2006, 09:12 PM »

Almost all of the freeware RSS readers/aggregators have no filtering functionality or use filters to combine and direct feeds.

The idea is a simple RSS reader whcih incorporates regexp based filtering.

That will prevent spam/offensive content from reaching you, and helps reducing duplicate.

I am currently using an email2rss and that is curretly filtered only on the header, since Forte Agent, as of this time, cannot filter on body content.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Command Line move

« on: September 25, 2006, 07:53 AM »

I would like to see a command line move that works as mv in Linux/UNIX does.

The built in one in Windosws cannot move folders and only renames them under the same parent folder, and the UNIX ports so far are either buggy (one of the adds endless loops of the folders moved at the destination) or don't support UNC paths.

Again this is a time saver in batch files instead of capturing the folder name, copying the tree and then deleting it.

Thank you.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Command Line Renamer

« on: September 25, 2006, 07:50 AM »

I would like to see a command line based (non GUI) based renamer that supports regular explressions, works on both files and folders, and also supports working on \\UNC paths.

The ones out there, either do not support folder renaming, buggy, or do not have regular expression capability.

It is very handy to use in batch files.

Thank you.
