Done!

Run it like this:

RandomRun.ahk desktop 10

And it'll open randomly all executables in the desktop folder, waiting up to 10 seconds between each one.

Oh, now i understand what you mean by "bodies" :)

Yeah, i also downloaded the message bodies. I didn't find the option at first, though, and was opening the messages one by one. I eventually made an ahk script to do that for me and left it running for a few hours. When i found out about the option, i felt dumb :)

If we're having a "less keystokes competition"...
c\*\photo :P

Just kidding, i was just letting people know that if you use \\ (two bars with nothing inside them), it'll match one level of directories, but if you use \*\, it'll match multiple levels! (it'll take quite a bit more time to find what you're looking for, though :P)

About spam: while i was downloading the email through imap, i also got the same problem.
I suppose that's the spam filter "learning".
The solution is simple: go to gmail and clean the spam folder. Then, go to opera, select all of the emails on the spam folder and select "not spam".
After i did that, no more non-spam emails got in the spam folder. (and i've already received a few spam emails that did get in there.

nontroppo: yep, i also noticed that most of my emails that got in the spam folder were chain-letters and alike.

One thing i love about this new config is that i've created a hotkey to toggle "spam state" of messages. It's VERY useful, and really fast!
Of course, i found out how to create it through nontropppo's great opera wiki!

FARR Plugins and Aliases / Re: Character Table
« Last post by jgpaiva on February 08, 2008, 05:30 PM »
czechboy: a word of advice since i see you're making cool plugins with frequent updates.

Don't post new versions throughout the whole thread, you can edit your own posts, thus, the best method is to keep updating the first post and directing people to download from there. This'll allow you to not enter version hell, because people in the future might be constantly reporting trouble you already solved in an more recent version but they just downloaded the one at the top of the thread.

Do you see what i mean?

[edit] another (and possibly way better) option would be for you to get some webspace (mouser hint, hint!!) and then you'd only have to post the link here ;) [/edit]

Find And Run Robot / Re: General Help and understanding pattern scoring
« Last post by jgpaiva on February 08, 2008, 05:23 PM »
then do the following farr query (<tab> means pressing the tab key):
c:\Pro<tab>ado<tab>\pho\
photoshop is now the first result.
Or better yet (and i bet not many people know about this one :P):

c\pro\ado\pho\pho sho<enter>

Notice that you don't need the ':' after 'c' (which is perfect if you have a keyboard layout that forces you to use shift to press ':' ;) ).
And that you can continue making successive parcial matches on directory browsing. It increases the workflow quite a bit! :D

General Software Discussion / Re: Opera M2 + Gmail + IMAP = not recommended
« Last post by jgpaiva on February 08, 2008, 04:24 PM »
Ok, now i really recommend it!

I was able to set the "[gmail]/sent" folder as the sent folder for opera, and now all is good. No more repeated emails, and all emails are correctly labled as sent when they are sent by me, as opposed to POP, where i did get the emails i sent though the web interface in opera, but they weren't labeled as "sent".

Now let's just wait for some spam to arrive to see if it gets in opera's spam box or in the inbox. (unfortunatelly, i think it'll appear in the inbox, as there's no option in opera to set the IMAP spam folder).

Yep, everything ok.

I have 10k emails (i think it's something around that) which represent 500mb, i think.
I'm not synchronizing buddies (or you meant a completelly different thing and i misunderstood you completelly? :) )

It takes a bit more time to check the mail (nothing noticieable, i'm just being picky), and it has a "synchonize" when you start opera which takes about 3 seconds.
There are only 2 important problems:

It took a whole afternoon to sync it all (but my wireless router has been acting really stupid, this it might be related).
And, some spam passed though the filter (3 emails) in that first day. Hasn't happened ever since (i already have the normal 100 spam emails on gmail's spam box). I'm just saying this because i'm not sure if the fact i created that "send all emails to archive" gmail filter might or might not have affected gmail's spam filter.

Oh, also:
Opera doesn't identify gmail's "sent" filter as a filter, thus, all emails i send get repeated in opera's inbox (because they are in 2 folders in gmail). This isn't anoying to me because they don't show up as unread. Also, this problem might be caused by a misconfiguration on my side, because opera has a "folder for sent emails" setting which i still haven't figured out how to set to [gmail]/sent see followup

I also would recommend dexpot.

drjdcollins: Thank you for your (mini) biography!

For those (like me :) ) that have never heard of cryptic crosswords, here's the wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia....i/Cryptic_crosswords

That's pretty impresive, those crosswords are VERY advanced, i had never seen such a thing!

About your program... If you think others might be interested in it, and you're not going to sell it in the future, maybe you could release it though DC, through a normal release or within one of our contests or challenges!

PS: how much time does it take you to solve one of those crosswords?
PS2: did you introduce all those 1.5mil words yourself?   :huh:

Great! :)

General Software Discussion / Re: How many of you use encryption?
« Last post by jgpaiva on February 06, 2008, 09:07 AM »
I was following these 2 ideas:

- Just because you don't have anything to hide, you don't need to show everything.
- Disk encryption is mainly processor-based.

Thus, it'd be a pain-free way to have future guarantees. (since the processor is free most of the time)

General Software Discussion / Re: How many of you use encryption?
« Last post by jgpaiva on February 06, 2008, 08:40 AM »
Following up on what i mentioned above:

Note that the volume header (which is encrypted with a header key derived from a password/keyfile) contains the master key with which the volume is encrypted.
- TC help file

Which means that your key only encrypts the master key, thus, you can change it without having to encrypt the whole disk.
Ok.. I think that the next time i format my machine, i'll use system-partition encryption :)

f0dder: why wouldn't you use it for the main workstation?

General Software Discussion / Re: How many of you use encryption?
« Last post by jgpaiva on February 06, 2008, 08:08 AM »
That "pre-boot autentication" got me thinking: would you be able to change the password?
I change my windows password very frequently, thus if changing that password would involve decrypting + encrypting the whole disk again, it'd make no sense in my case.

« Last post by jgpaiva on February 06, 2008, 07:56 AM »
I made a small mistake, you're supposed to only use the drive letter (without the ':').

Does it close only one but open both of them?
1696
There are quite a few sites that acomplish something similar to this.

You can download the full site with programs like httrack, or save the webpages your visiting, for future reference with surfulater ;)

Oh, i thought you already were doing that!

Yes, in the "arguments" line, add the letter of the drive you want to eject!
(better add it with the ':' for example, e: )
