jmj -- maybe one of these days in near future you will let me bend your ear and ask a few questions about the best way for me to do it.-mouser (December 17, 2008, 02:40 PM)
I didnt mention firefox. The wand pales in comparison to roboform. Several users here can atest to that fact.-Josh (June 12, 2008, 11:37 AM)
Dont confuse security with lack of use. Sorry, still no roboform, no opera for me.-Josh (June 12, 2008, 08:20 AM)
3.1.8.3220 is the last beta linked from the main page, which I'm assuming is http://locate32.net-nosh (April 07, 2008, 10:32 AM)
, it seems that I have forgotten to add a message for 8.3260. It's there now.
Edit: The program's home page lists a slightly old beta (it didn't have the thumbnails feature).
Here's the link to the Locate32 Beta Page-nosh (April 07, 2008, 06:28 AM)
- Realtime indexing - very low on resource consumption, better (perfect) results, no CPU spikes as with scheduled indexing.
- Thumbnail mode for graphic files (would give it an outright advantage over other FS tools that do realtime indexing, none that I know of have this implemented)
- Panes for listing recently added/changed & recently launched files (like with Ava Find)
- Popup window showing files being added/modified (like in Filetracer)

But anyway, I tried to unplug my server and opened Locate32. Locate32 did hang on couple of seconds! I'll check that what Locate32 it is doing.-jmj (January 11, 2008, 10:56 AM)
I can brush up the modification a bit and commit to the repository, since unicode display would be nice to have for console users nonetheless.-f0dder (January 12, 2008, 07:12 AM)
f0dder: "Disable updating (...)" option is there for, did you try that?Yup, "Disable updating (file information from database)" checked, "Do not add directoris (except local drives) to the list" checked, "Use default icon for directories (use with...)" checked.-jmj (January 11, 2008, 09:58 AM)-f0dder (January 11, 2008, 10:11 AM)
Sorry but that didn't answer the question really. I understand why it needs access to specified locations to update the database but why does it need to access anything just to open the search window (I am not talking about during the search - literally just opening the window to enter search criteria is incredibly slow).
Also even during a search why does it need to access anything - surely the whole point about have an index database is precisely to avoid looking at disk/network content to do a search ???-Carol Haynes (January 11, 2008, 09:34 AM)
it took two days here? Typically I'm not so slow. jmj: I want to play around with it a bit, as soon as I get the thing fully building. Is the filename output done exclusively from the two callback functions?

f0dder:
OK, so everything I know at the moment:
1. Console in Windows XP can produce full Unicode output but only for displaying. Piping and redirecting is unsupported so it's useless for us.
2. Standard printing functions like wprintf (used in locate.exe) uses built-in WideCharToMultibyte conversion (to DOS codepage in my case), so polish letters have wrong hexcodes in normal windows.
3. I'm able to write raw Unicode to console (swprintf+WriteFile, without widechar->codepage conversion) - when displaying it look like there are spaces between all letters, but after redirecting to a file it works like a charm (even without BOM).
