Finished Programs / Re: Frameless.exe: program usage syntax
« Last post by Ath on May 10, 2015, 07:18 AM »
Assuming you are using the latest version, we'll have to await Skwire's response as he has the sourcecode. So far I can't see you've done anything wrong in that command-line.

Possible external causes:
- The png file could be malformed or in-use by another program (preview?)
- Your AV is interfering with frameless
- There could be a permission issue with either the exe or the png file

Nice tool, but somewhere along the road it lost its Linux-ability :o That seemed like a nice-to-have feature, but _I_ won't be using it that way, anyways.

I do not see that there is anything preventing the user from removing the hard drive from the old PC, connecting said drive to a suitable drive carrier, and plugging the latter as a peripheral device, into (say) a USB port on the laptop.

General Software Discussion / Re: Help with Windows batch script
« Last post by Ath on May 06, 2015, 03:18 AM »
You might want to create a %server%-validusers.txt file, by making these subtle changes:

Code: Text [Select]
  1. ...
  2. SET userlist=validusers.txt
  3. ...
and
Code: Text [Select]
  1. ...
  2. :Logoff
  3. findstr /I ^%1$ .\%5-%userlist% >NUL
  4. ...

and having 3 files APPLE-validusers.txt, BANANA-validusers.txt and CHERRY-validusers.txt in the current directory.

You could make it even more fancy by adding a check for common users in validusers.txt, but that seems like a little overkill to me.

What's wrong with a Wiki page in Sharepoint? You can create a list of links there, easy as pie.
You do need Create and Modify permissions of course.

What type of internet connection would have this usage-model? Most current internet connections are always-on, AFAIK, so no need, or even means, to turn it 'off'.

Despite its name, my tool Excel2Html can be used for this exercise, if the .csv file is converted (loaded) into a .xls or .xlsx file.
And a .html template is plain text, of course.

Relevant DC threads (original Coding snack request and support-thread) are available from the link.

Living Room / Re: Ethernet cables: UTP vs. STP
« Last post by Ath on April 27, 2015, 02:43 PM »
It's to do with the Category of the cable.
CAT 5 is qualified for 100 MBit/s
CAT 5e for 1 GBit/s
CAT 6 for up to 10 GBit/s and requires better signal to noise ratios (10 GBit/s not over the full 100 meters)
CAT 7 for up to 40 GBit/s with even better signal to noise ratios and less crosstalk, using shielded pairs within the cable

More info here: http://www.xmultiple...xwebsite-forum24.htm
And Wikipedia on CAT 5/5e: http://en.wikipedia....iki/Category_5_cable

For converting an image to base64 I used this freeware multi-platform off-line/command-line Base64 De-/Encoder (no connections, just a happy user). It supports output to stdout so redirecting output directly into the message from a batch-file is easy-peasy :up:

You have quite loose visibility settings allowing any indirect contact (friends of friends?) to access you info, apparently. You are in control, though... FB provides with very strict access, but you have to change that manually.

-Has some compatibility problems with Windows 8 (error on exit)
-doesn't remember settings (like where the time was displayed) This might be because of the error above.
-ayryq (April 14, 2015, 02:05 PM)
You might be able to fix that by applying "Run as Administrator" on it, it probably tries to write to protected registry locations. It's from 2008... :huh:

What else does it bring for that size? It's rather large at nearly 2 MB (imho). Is that because of the development environment used?
