Any chance FARR could call up the "Blue Screen Of Death"
shortcut/alias "BSOD"

also
"crash"
"freeze"
"lockup"

FileHampster is excellent. I wish I had found it before I tried to roll my own. I guess one advantage is that if you know AHK you can alter it to suit your needs.

Is it possible to select all files in a folder that have a specific extension, so that the program automatically monitors and backs up changes of that file type?

That would be much more protective, in case a user doesn't remember to add a file to your listing.

sounds like a great idea, i will see what I can do.

How about CSVed
http://csved.sjfrancke.nl/index.html

All the power you will ever need to manipulate a CSV file.
The help file is limited, so sometimes you need to explore and learn.

Load a CSV file into the app, pay attn to the 'Set Separator' and refresh

You can modify/replace/search/prefix/suffix etc , its all there, plenty of power under the hood.
or even better....

Hi Nighted

Calimanjaro does look interesting, and somewhat familiar, in fact it looks exactly like Yagoon http://www.yagoon.com/index.htm

And here is the rub, neither look like they are currently being developed. Both just sit there collecting license money which is a real shame because once you get use to the views, its magnificent.

but..
There are a couple of bugs that need attention. ie. in multiday view, some events do not show up in the far right column if they start after 1200
so in a simple two day view, you really only get 1.5 days.

the versions are different, and I will try Calimanjaro just to see the differences.

I will email Calimanjaro, as I had no luck contacting Yagoon

Interestingly
Release Notes
March 18, 2007
Calimanjaro 1.1.3 has been released.

March 14, 2006
Yagoon Time 2.3 has been released.

The ical function is great though, and I wish more calendar applications utilized this.

Brett

Edit* Yagoon (time.exe) is very heavy on memory, considering it sits in the tray all day, this can be a burden.
