Yo yotta, what's not clear in jomtones' post?

Ok so far I tried Launchy which I liked but inexplicably stopped working.

I know that, but it looks like a scam to me, and it'd be pretty easy to reproduce a scam :)

Why do you clasify it a scam?

« Last post by PhilB66 on February 27, 2008, 08:36 PM »
Just started playing with ImageWalker - a fast/lightweight image management and viewing application that runs on Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP/Vista. It can read the following file formats: BMP, GIF, ICO, JIF, JNG, JPG, KOA, LBM, MNG, PCD, PCDS, PCX, PNG, PNM, RAS, SUN, TGA, TIF, WBMP, WMF and writes GIF, JIF, JPG, PNG, TIF.

Screenshot:

Features:
  • See you images in their full glory: Edit, view and slideshow images in full screen mode.
  • Automatically scan metadata information (e.g., size, date taken, exposure or aperture) or add your own keywords and descriptions to keep track of your photos.
  • Work the way you want: ImageWalker will index images for speed in any folder and does not force you to keep images in an enforced folder structure.
  • Save time: manipulate and print multiple images at a time using batch functions.
  • Preserve photo quality by using Non destructive (lossless) JPEG rotation and crop.
  • Upload images to Flickr: preserving description and keyword information while registering the images flicker ID in local image metadata.
  • Generate HTML web galleries for displaying images on your web own site.
  • Preview and view RAW image formats with full colour management support for ICC and ICM profiles.
  • Runs great on slower computers and Unicode compliant
  • And best of all...its FREE for home use

RBTray does exactly that:

"RBTray allows you to minimize windows in the tray area on taskbar by clicking right mouse button on the window`s minimize/close box or from system menu or from window`s system menu. And to set any window in Always on top state from window`s system menu."

General Software Discussion / Re: Another System Explorer
« Last post by PhilB66 on February 22, 2008, 09:06 AM »
How do I disable the auto versioncheck?
-PhilB66 (February 22, 2008, 08:44 AM)
System Explorer has new version checking feature. New version is checked once per day. First check is processed after 24 hours from first start of System Explorer. If exists major update, user is notified about it once. There's no automatic download. User must download new version manualy.

There's no option to disable this feature in actual version. Should we add it ?

Also, why the assignment of a user_ id number?
-PhilB66 (February 22, 2008, 08:44 AM)
I don't understand, could you please explain it ?
-mistercz (February 22, 2008, 08:57 AM)

Oh, at the bottom of the config.ini file, just after the lastVersionCheck= line there's this [user_xxxxxxxxxx] number. What is it for?

Yes, I think you should let the user decide if he wants to check for updates manually or go for the autocheck for new version mechanism.

Very nice, thanks Carol  :Thmbsup: It's lightning quick, easy to read, and light on resources. I *think* this is a keeper. I like Systernals Process Explorer a lot, but this, to my mind, has an easier to read/understand/naviagate interface.
-Darwin (February 22, 2008, 07:40 AM)

Process Explorer's tree view is IMO a much better tool to understand what's going on on your machine.

BTW, this tool has a similar interface to DTASKMANAGER.

I figured it most likely had been mentioned before, but I decided to post it here, because I wanted to compare it to launchy, which hasn't been done on here that I know of.

"Enso launcher/words is a must for everyone!" sounds like a reccomendation to me. How does Enso compare to Launchy then?
