Why not just use https://www.omdbapi.com/ as it is free.

For the average user iMarco is pretty much out of reach. Yet it is a fantastic program to use.

Morning Coffee Quantum – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US)
This is good for checking specific websites daily or on specific days. Just click the button and the pages open that you have set for that day.

Update Scanner – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US)
This checks webpages at times you set. It checks for differences in the page. So you can set it up to look hourly for 50 character changes on the page. If there is one, it alerts you with a pop-up.

I was surprised to see that nearly 10% of Windows users on Steam are already running Windows 11. But that's mostly because I forgot Windows 11 was even a thing.

Same thing here. Not even really thinking about 11 yet.

I agree that it is still a good service. I was just pointing out that if you are under the eye of a govt agency, there is little that a company can do to protect you.

It is simply proof that at no point are you ever truly anonymous on the net. If at anytime a state authority wants information, they can get it.

Used to be they could just go in and demand the logs. Now they know better. They get a court order to monitor your actions and the company is forced to comply. Sure they still do not log anything for everyone else, but if you're targeted by that state agency there is little they can do to stop it.

Post New Requests Here / Possible to get a GUI for this program?

« on: August 29, 2021, 09:19 AM »

I work with torrents and try to help others out the best I can. This program is excellent, yet command line only.

I was wondering about a GUI that is editable to be able to add more trackers to it.

I was hoping it would be so that you could click on all the trackers you wanted to create a torrent for, and it would run through the list.

Not sure if I am being clear to someone who is not familiar with torrenting so if more information is needed please ask.

Yeah. I gave up on this as a lost bet. I am in the lawsuit but I do not see it going anywhere.

Seems to be an issue if you try to do to many files at once.



Was doing 16 files at the time.

Yes. Lets not confuse the folder to the file.

Just straight to it. After all if your selecting to name folders after the files name there really does not need to have input.

How about a generic FileToFolder.

« on: May 09, 2021, 08:26 AM »

I can use this. One question about adding a feature.

I could also use an option to move to folder and each file would be moved to a folder from the name of the file.

Seems like in a few years I might not master the program but become proficient with it.

Thanks once again for the program. I might get lost in all the bells and whistles but it is a time saver.

OK. The script helped me out.

Now. I am having an issue with space at the end of a snippet. I put the period in to show where I want to break. Yet when I put this in the script it works great until I restart Lintalist. Then all the spaces are removed. I am using this in conjunction with the move to top to paste script and move the other text down.

Any idea how to have the blank areas stay?

Code: Text [Select]

1. Bunch of text Bunch of text Bunch of text Bunch of text
2. Bunch of text Bunch of text
3. Bunch of text

5.

The video was a bit beyond me. I grasped it but still not fully understanding it.

Can you give me a bit more information how it will kill the 86/64 bit processors.

Post New Requests Here / Re: [IDEA] Book Tracking 1.1

« on: September 13, 2020, 09:48 AM »

Just tried Zotero and that's is not going to work, at least for this. I do plan on using it to track data I gather the net and sites I work on. Thanks again for bringing this up again.

After many years of logging information about the books I have read I do not have it in me to go through thousands of books again, with yet another program. My hopes is to find a simple book program that will pull the authors history (excluding non English translation) with the books separated into the series they belong. Updating it would pull new books to the series without the need of trying to track down each author every time I am looking for something new to read.

When you read as often as I do across many series being alerted to a new book in a series is pretty damn nice. Not sure how many times I forgot about following up on a series and then stumble over it again and find multiple books have already been published.

Just that almost every book program I have tried is just to damn clumsy or so filled with bells and whistles that it takes away from the simple joy of cataloging what I read.

Almost another year has past since last post. Almost six since OP.

Thought I would bring this thread up again.

I quietly see what people post and check things out. Never seen a point in a comment or saying thanks.

So this will be my all encompassing thanks for this entire thread that everyone is posting to. In the future will only comment if I have a question.

Thanks.

OK. Spent a bit of time but was not able to find what I was looking for.

Part of my use of Lintalist is working in txtarea of webpages. Most of the time I need to be at the top and to the lext. E.G. CTRL + HOME

Is there a way to add this to a snippet so that when I click on it it immediately goes to the first character of a txtarea?

Thanks. Was there. Seriously doubt anything will be reimbursed as per their policy and the fact that they can't get the money from a company that is bankrupt. Still submitted though.

From the sites page:

Youtube commentary:
https://www.youtube..../watch?v=bfiibVaEMeY

The main discussion about a lawsuit is being done on the Discord channel. I already filed with the Washington state AG's office. I am not expecting a return on what I spent but I would like to see the guy go to jail. He horribly mismanaged the money and six weeks ago had another land sale to gather up more money before saying it is all done a week ago. So he knew they were shutting down and still was asking for money through kickstarter.

I only lost a couple hundred. Others have lost 5-20k and more.
