N.A.N.Y. 2020 / Re: NANY 2020: ISMONISM - search Start Menu (or any folder) for 'missing' entries
« Last post by mouser on December 29, 2019, 10:26 PM »
Another nice feature would be a custom IGNORE list, so that we could specify patterns to ignore when scanning.. That would be useful to let us ignore items that we don't care about.  Bonus would be right-click add folder or add file to ignore list.

Working really well here.. You did a great job!
It would be nice if there was a gui options tab where user could set the search directories and personal shortcut folder name..

Can those who weren't seeing GoTo menu populate try the new beta.  It uses a new system.  You can also now manually edit the GoTo list in the options (it will also auto populate it as you open new BASE folders).

Developer's Corner / Anyone played with graphviz tool for drawing graphs?
« Last post by mouser on December 29, 2019, 06:30 PM »
Spent a day last week playing around with python, networkx (python lib), and graphviz (language neutral), for drawing and laying out graphs.

My boardgaming buddy and I are huge fans of the pandemic series of board games.  We played recently Rising Tide, a spinoff with a very confusing looking board.  I decided to see if a more traditional node-edge graph would help make sense of the layout, and thought it was a good excuse to get some familiarity with writing code to visualize graphs, etc.

Here's the original board:

Here's the graph:
rtidesmall.png

Fun stuff.. Anyone else played with graphviz or networkx?

ps1.
There is a nice windows build of Python3 which is completely portable -- WinPython.  I had good luck with that.
ps2.
I'm not a big fan of Rising Tide, I think the other spinoffs are much better.

Well that was hellacious, but I think it's solved.
I reported the bug(s) to smf here: https://www.simplema...x.php?topic=571025.0 and https://www.simplema...x.php?topic=571026.0

Just reporting that the rss feed is working again.  I saw it was down earlier, but now it works.

I hope I'm not speaking to soon -- but this comment gave me a clue that may have been the cause of all the problems -- so thank you!  :Thmbsup:

Kindly let me know when you find something broken.. I suspect there will be some things based on the smf code I have merged being troublesome.

Find And Run Robot / Re: Password Managers that work with FARR?
« Last post by mouser on December 27, 2019, 08:21 PM »
It would be better to accept that FARR should not be able to search your passwords.. Use a password manager that can search well (Keepass, free).

Can anyone else on Windows 10 let me know if the GoTo menu autopopulates with folders as you change your root folder, and exit and restart?  Trying to figure out if I need to rewrite that code.

Here's a DEBUG version that will log a LOT of debug info to a debug text file:
https://www.donation...RunRobotPortable.zip

Unzip that in portable directory.  Exit regular farr, start this one, search for your libre calc, then exit farr soon after it shows up in the display.

The resulting debugout.txt file should contain information about how it found the icon images, etc.  and you can mail that to me ([email protected]);  it won't have any sensitive info in it, but feel free to look it through before you send it.

Would you like to set up the source code and dev env on my pc and remote into it so you can debug it?

No, though I may have you try a debug-build that will log for me what files it thinks its asking for icons from.
Hopefully it's simply a matter of FARR mistakenly asking for the icon for exe that it thinks is in Program Files x86, when it should be specifying the file in Program Files\

« Last post by mouser on December 26, 2019, 02:43 PM »
It's possible that even though it's displaying properly on my machine, it's actually asking Windows for the wrong icon file, and that I can fix it.  I just want to eliminate other possibilities first..
What OS are you using?

In the very unlikely chance that it has something to with my last official build, I've uploaded a beta of FARR with my latest build; let's check to make sure that doesn't solve it:
Download beta version (2.233.01) from here (portable zip).
