A client has sent me several hundred MP3 which are all untagged and have the file names in the format Track001.mp3

They also included an index of the files as a PDF file, which contains a table laid out as follows...

Track | Sound  | Duration | Description
001   | 1      | 0:32     | Various Finger clicks
002   | 1      | 0:10     | Cat miaow
etc...

Is there any tool sophisticated enough to rename the tracks with their Track number and Description?

To complicate matters further some Tracks contain multiple sounds...

Track | Sound  | Duration | Description
013   | 1      | 0:59     | Hiss (close-up)
013   | 2      |          | Hiss (muffled)

Thanks for help in advance,

Skrommel's Software / MouseActivate at left hand screen edge.
« on: October 10, 2005, 10:42 AM »
It is probably a bad habit of mine, but I often throw the mouse pointer to the left-hand screen edge, and at present MouseActivate interprets this as a command to put the current window to the back!

How can I disable this feature as I find it a hindrance not a help?

Checked the ini file but there seems to be no option there.

Find And Run Robot / Numeric Keypad
« on: October 07, 2005, 04:05 AM »
Perhaps I have overlooked a simple option somewhere in the preferences, but recent releases of F&RR seem not to accept item selection from the numeric keypad (a function that I found most speedy when using the mouse).

If this has been removed, may I ask what the reasoning behind the decision was? And whether it can be reinstated.

General Software Discussion / [Query] Vector to DWG or DXF
« on: August 18, 2005, 08:44 PM »
I use Xara X1 as my vector graphics program of choice... But it doesn't output in a format that I can import into my 3d design package (SketchUp). So I am looking for a freeware converter that will go from on of the following...

.eps
.ai
.wmf
.xar

To...

.dwg
.dxf
.3ds
.dem
.ddf

Can anyone help?

eVER TYPED A LINE OF TEXT, ONLY TO DISCOVER THAT CAPS WAS ON? oH DARN - IT'S ON now!!!

OK so now I want to repair the damage so that you guys don't think I am shouting at you... what choice have I got but to retype the entire line of text?  Well how about if I could simply select the offending characters, hit my Caps Lock key and not only would it turn off CAPS so that I'd not be producing further garbage, but it would also reverse the case of the selection fixing my original problem in a single stroke.

Now I know that some software (eg Word) has a switch case funtion, but why not have this facility system wide?

No more reversed case issues in Messenger or IRC or on forums etc etc...

Just a thought.

Ampa.

PS - Yes I know that I should touch type better and avoid ever making mistakes in the first place, but the fact is that a lot of us do screw up in this manner from time to time.

PPS - I also once tried, but failed, to configure a HotKey program (I think it was HoeKey) so make a small sound when I hit Caps Lock as a warning... perhaps this too could be a feature of this tiny tool?
