...the missing plugins, they were still excluded from the package. The last version should contain all of them.

I see them now.  Thanks!

There are new functions that you can use by doing a require("lib/clipboard.js") : they are clip and paste. Paste can optionally take a text to paste. You can also do a sendinput but it's currently limited to printable characters only. If you feel like improving it, I'll be happy to take your version and put it in Qatapult.

Both functions are built with direct call to win32 dll from javascript using the dynamic wrapper. Have a look to clipboard.js in lib if you want to see what it looks like.

There is a new jsmath plugin that eval javascript as a way to evaluate mathematical expression. Start a query with = on the first pane to trigger it. It work well but doesn't handle the display exactly the way I would like : The perfect thing ihmo would be to have a custom display on the first pane that display both the expression and the result, then a second pane with the operation. The current thing use 3 panes. I think that it might  be worthwhile that we use some specially named values that skins could detect and handle display for a large number of types instead of handling types individually like we do today : skins could be more versatile that way ihmo.

Looking forward to checking these bits out...however, I don't see them in the latest zip.  I tried downloading with 2 browsers but didn't notice any difference.  For reference, the MD5 of what I ended up with was:

  MD5: 7a416eb360fcbd53dcfc1e672f575839

What am I missing?

I've uploaded a new version. This is the ground for the future settings ui that should be more usable. You can now enable and disable plugins from the UI. There is also a ton of less memory leaks.

Thanks for the new version!

Just a quick note -- I no longer see "Quit" or "Reload".  This is with a fresh install on Windows XP SP3.

Any ideas?

Having difficulty with Windows Explorer in Windows 7, been looking for a good alternative.

Tried DoubleCommander and FreeCommanderXE for a bit and though they looked promising, neither feels quite ready yet.  Currently using CubicExplorer and finding it in its current state to be a bit more usable -- sadly no dual pane yet though:

Armando,

FWIW, I mirrored your settings, but I still have access to the new behavior...

No specific suggestion, but would a file synchronizer be of any help?

FWIW, AutoHotkey.dll is what I've been using for at least one earlier Qatapult plugin -- the Calculate one.

For reference, below is a bit from Calculate.ahk:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. ; XXX: ScriptText should have #Persistent and a function def
  2. ;      Pass the script's text using ScriptText
  3. ;      Pass the name of the function in using FuncName
  4. RunFuncInScriptWithInputText(ScriptText, FuncName, InputText)
  5. {
  6.   ; XXX: before didn't need to muck with path...
  7.   AhkDll := AhkDllThread(A_ScriptDir . "\..\AHK\AutoHotkey.dll")
  8.   ;OutputDebug, % "Script content: " . ScriptText
  9.   AhkDll.ahkTextDll(ScriptText)
  10.   OutputDebug, % "Value passing to script: " . InputText
  11.   Result := AhkDll.ahkFunction(FuncName, InputText)
  12.   OutputDebug, % "Script returned: " . Result
  13.   AhkDll.Terminate()
  14.   Return Result
  15. }
  16.  
  17. Calculate(InputText)
  18. {
  19.   FuncName := "Calculate"
  20.   ScriptText := "#Persistent`n`n"
  21.               . "#NoTrayIcon`n`n"
  22.               . FuncName . "()`n"
  23.               . "{`n"
  24.               . "  Result := " . InputText . "`n"
  25.               . "  Return % Result . A_Space`n" ; XXX: convert to string
  26.               . "}`n"
  27.   Result := RunFuncInScriptWithInputText(ScriptText, FuncName, InputText)
  28.   Result := RTrim(Result)
  29.   ; XXX: consider whether to modify trailing zeros
  30.   Return Result
  31. }

AutoHotkey.dll aside
AutoHotkey.dll has some nice features and the developer (HotKeyIt) is usually pretty responsive about bug reports, but docs for his things are not always up-to-date.

If you happen to be an emacs user, perhaps the following may appeal:

  https://emacs.wordpr...ing-your-file-names/

In dired mode C-x C-q will let you leverage the functionality of emacs to edit the file names in the dired buffer.  When you're done, C-c C-c to commit your changes...

Do you mind if I change the name of setInput to setOutput ? I think it would be more appropriate.

On a related note regarding renaming -- I think in English, spelling for collector ends in 'or'.  When I did search, I found that in French there is a word that ends in 'er'.

May be you knew this already :)

see if you maybe have that option above set in the radio box "Hide When Focus Is Lost" -- that can cause some odd behavior.

FWIW, here, toggling

  Options
    Window Options
      Focus Preservation
        Hide When Focus Is Lost

seems to toggle the new Control+Enter behavior here -- if any of the other radio buttons are set, the new behavior appears to be in effect.

IIUC, Josh is already aware of the following, but FWIW, there's a Unicode-aware version of PopTray in the works:

PoptrayU is quite young though...I think Josh said it crashed in his testing.

eg seems to be a perl script -- haven't tested it thoroughly yet, but it does appear to run using StrawberryPerl and msysgit on Windows (only tried XP Pro SP3).

Promising claims from the page:

eg makes git easy to learn and use

  • easily learnable - I claim you can learn git faster by first using eg than by starting with git directly
  • interchangable - You can switch between using eg and using git as often as you'd like. I do it all the same on the same repositories.
  • fully capable - Unlike other wrappers for git, eg does not remove or limit any capabilities of git in order to simplify it; it just tries to layer concepts and present the capabilities in a more orderly fashion.
  • compatible - eg is essentially command-line backwards compatible to git; those familiar with git can start using eg by simply replacing "git" with "eg" in their commands.

Ant Renamer seems nice -- source code is available too  :Thmbsup:

I hope to verify whether it works well portably and under Wine.

Assuming you've tried it, please share how den4b's ReNamer is lacking for your purposes -- that's the one I ended up on.

There were some similar items mentioned at the bottom of the Easy Git page:

    yap (announcement), by Steven Walter

    A porcelain that concentrates on making git easier for those interacting with subversion repositories; particularly trying to reduce the impedance mismatch that exists between the very different workflows typically used with native git repositories versus git-svn ones.

    pyrite, by Govind Salinas

    A porcelain focusing on providing a Mercurial-like user interface.

    yyhelp, by Tim Janik

    A single file bash script serving as a minimal porcelain. Emphasis on minimal; it's a very short file with no documentation that I could find.

    vng, by Thomas Zander

    A porcelain focusing on providing a darcs-like user interface.

I haven't tried this, but it looks promising as an entry point for using git.

FWIW, it seems to be working here.

Not sure if these are relevant, but screenshot of some options for the local setup follows below:
