N.A.N.Y. 2012 / Re: NANY 2012 - NoteMe - Mail Myself

« on: December 01, 2011, 04:28 AM »

With the goal of making this program as easy to use as possible, I'm considering making a serverside component do the emailing so that the user won't have to worry about setting up the smtp details. The program would send the [message , subject, to] fields to the server. The server is setup to process emails.

Also I have been thinking about a hotkey to bring up the program window, and it would minimize after sending mail. Bring up the window, type body, alt-s to send. Did you know you can already use alt-s to send?

I'm going to add the feature to select from multiple TO addresses so that you can use it for multiple purposes, ie [email protected] and [email protected] but it would remember the last selected address. Add / remove these addresses built in the UI.

Also I noticed that the updater will say that the program is up to date, really it should only come up when an update is available, when automatically run.

DC Website Help and Extras / Re: Lists on the blog

« on: November 28, 2011, 04:46 AM »

Fix. In donationcoder2.css:1348 (.quotefloatpicboxL) replace the margin rules with:

Code: CSS [Select]

margin: 0 40px 40px 0;

OR (depending on what the intended look and feel is) in line 43 (ul) add:

Code: CSS [Select]

list-style: none;

I've received a suggestion by email: could you add the feature that Ctrl-A checks all the windows and then Ctrl-A again unchecks them all?

Coding Snacks / Re: structured plaintextfile based note taker

« on: September 28, 2011, 05:24 AM »

I'm using ResophNotes now and I'm completely happy. You can switch from the default DB to plain text files if you want (but I dont) and you can sync them to SimpleNote (web based note taker) which I do, plus it can parse to markdown (/ html) which is very handy.

This is great for the occasional notes and stuff I used to have disorganised in evernote, and things that convert to html like installation instructions. Everything structural I have moved to workflowy.com now.

General Software Discussion / Looking for 'self email' sender

« on: September 05, 2011, 04:49 AM »

I'm looking for something a windows desktop app that you can popup with a hotkey. start typing. When you're done, hit Send. The note is immediately delivered to your email inbox. Specify the address in the settings. That's it. No email server configuration, no subject, no other options.

Does this exist or will I have to make it?

Living Room / Re: 'Work Done' Lists Sofware, any ideas ?

« on: August 26, 2011, 03:12 PM »

I use workflowy.com for this. Make an entry per week inside that the schedule and one entry per day and inside that a worklog of things I did that day.

Couldn't you do much the same thing just using any outliner app - and optionally hosting or (preferably) syncing the data file with something like a free Dropbox account? That way, if workflowy ever went out of business, or changed hands, you'd still be set to go.

yes, the keyboard shortcuts are great though. Also you can export your stuff out of workflowy and into any outliner.
