LaunchBar Commander / Re: How to have docked launchbar not take up entire edge?

It's not something i can change for the case where it is always docked, but for the sliding/hiding case, it could be done.. though it's a little hard for me to see why it would be very useful since it's only temporarily sliding out on rare occasions, so is it really important in such cases how big it is?

There is no way for it to dock and not take up the entire height or width.
However, there are other options for if you dont want it always occupying the space on your screen:

• Have it hide/slide out only when you move mouse near edge.
• Keep it minimized in system tray and have it only pop up as a menu from there.
• Configure a hotkey to bring up a menu at your cursor.

Screenshot Captor / Re: New option for after making a selection

« Last post by mouser on May 21, 2010, 05:05 AM »

ctrl+c should do it (or Edit-> Copy object/image to clipboard); this works on whatever you have selected or the entire image if nothing is selected.

« Last post by mouser on May 18, 2010, 04:34 AM »

i will try to add drag and drop support, but the way it works now is that if you HIGHLIGHT/SELECT a result and then press the button, and the button is configured to open the %file% or similar things, it will work on the selected result file.

Programmer Libs / Re: MwImporter php script - Batch import an html site into MediaWiki, or generic

« Last post by mouser on May 17, 2010, 12:47 PM »

Ok finished up adding the features i wanted to add -- you can now import a large deep directory of pages and images, and it will import properly all of them, creating unique names when the file and page titles are not globally unique (nesc. due to flatness of a wiki), and fixing up all links between pages.

Hopefully this will be useful for someone who is interested in migrating a site from static to wiki format.  I will upload soon.

N.A.N.Y. 2011 / A NANY 2011 Coders Requesting Funding Idea: Feedback Wanted

« Last post by mouser on May 15, 2010, 06:17 AM »

I had an idea.. I would like to see coders to take on more substantial programming projects to release at the end of the year as part of NANY.  I wonder if it might make sense to encourage coders to request donations to help them spend some time on their NANY, or purchase things that might help them code their project (icons, clipart, programming tools, etc.).

The nature of DC means that such donations would be small -- but still maybe worth a try.

Doing this doesn't really require us to implement anything special -- donations can be made via donationcredits, or any other financial service, or coders could set up one of those funding accounts on other sites.

The only real thing we should do IF people think this is a good idea is maybe put up a page or sticky thread listing the coders who are requesting some funding, what they are planning to do with any donations, and some background on whether they have participated in NANY before, etc., and then just encourage people to send money to these people as they post updates on their projects.
