LaunchBar Commander / Using LBC on a jump drive - how to protect settings on HD version?
« on: February 17, 2009, 04:11 PM »
It appears from what I've tried so far that it's risky to use LBC on a portable USB device when the host computer already has LBC installed.

I set up LBC on my jump drive and built nodes to some of the portable apps and utilities I keep on that drive.  Worked fine, except when I next ran the LBC setup which resides permanently on my C drive, the dock for that computer had been overwritten with that on the portable version. 

Restored from the backup with no problem, but I've put on hold the idea of running LBC portably until I can figure out how to keep this from happening again.

LaunchBar Commander / Question or request - start LBC auto minimized to tray
« on: January 15, 2009, 06:37 AM »
Love LBC, but I cherish every free pixel of my laptop's 12" screen, and run the program minimized all the time.  Is there a setting or perhaps a command line option to have it minimize on program startup??

General Software Discussion / Is there a good freeware program to backup/restore installed drivers (Win XP)

Something that would be the free equivalent of programs like "Driver Genius"

thanks all!

Drag&Drop Robot / D&DR executable question
« on: June 04, 2008, 10:42 AM »
Yo Mouser,

Trying D&DR after you recommended it in the general software forum. 

It seems to be just what I'm looking for - if only it would accept the "built in to the OS" commands such as copy, delete, rename etc.

For example: copy *.mp3 e:\  returns "Error: could not find executable to launch"

Am I missing something in the configuration or syntax which would enable those commands, or can you suggest a workaround?

General Software Discussion / Is there a utility that will recurse a command down through subfolders?
« on: May 30, 2008, 10:11 AM »
Back in the old DOS days (I used DR-DOS) there was a neat command called "xall" which worked like this:

xall copy *.m3u E:\     
(from the starting point, drill down through all subdirs, find anything with the m3u extension and copy to the root of E drive)

xall ren *.txt *.prn 
(do the rename operation all the way down the subdir path)

Xall is still out there on the 'net, but all I can find is a version that's long-filename-unfriendly.

Anyone know of a Windows version of this?  GUI or command line, either would be great.
