General Software Discussion / Re: [IDEA] copy on select
« Last post by skwire on June 14, 2013, 03:03 PM »
I've used a slightly more complicated version of this QnD (Quick 'n Dirty) AHK script for years to paste on middle-click.  Here's a basic version:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. ~MButton::
  2. {
  3.     If ( A_Cursor = "IBeam" )
  4.     {
  5.         SendInput, ^v
  6.     }
  7. }
  8. Return

Just finished the first book of the Mistborn trilogy by Brandon Sanderson.  Really slick magic system and a neatly developed world.  Onward with the second book...

As an aside, I think basing the rename off of file sizes is just asking for trouble since the chance of a collision does exist, however small.  On any modern computer, generating any kind of checksum for such small files wouldn't be much of a price to pay to better guard against collisions.

Also, while we're at it: Why exactly are Linsux users too dumb/lazy to spell "Windows" correctly? Can't Linux stand out without having superior operating systems bashed verbally?

Worked fine here on a netbook running Win8Pro + ClassicStartMenu.  All icons disappeared and then returned to Desktop, (mind you there are only two of them :) ).

Thanks Skwire for this handy little program.
-nkormanik (May 28, 2013, 11:41 PM)

You're welcome.

-- Probably the first would be "auto-update" -- one minute, five minute, etc.
-nkormanik (May 28, 2013, 11:41 PM)

I've considered adding this but the "add alerts" feature requests will come next and I really don't want to deal with that.

-- Add in some additional available fields.  Open, high, low, close, volume.
-nkormanik (May 28, 2013, 11:41 PM)

Ah, crap.  :-[  I forgot to upload v1.0.2 which adds an additional tab with many more data fields.  I've uploaded it now so please check it out.

-- Another really useful one -- and may not presently exist out there; for sure not free -- would be creation of a log file for some particular security.  With ability to bring the log file into Excel, etc.  One could easily then see the daily trend, or two days, or however much data the log file holds.
-nkormanik (May 28, 2013, 11:41 PM)

I think you can get this type of historical data from the Yahoo Finance page.  Again, though, what I know regarding the stock market wouldn't fill a thimble so I might be (read: probably am) wrong.

v1.0.2 - 2013-05-29
    + Added new tab with more comprehensive data set.  (Thanks, P. Loshuk)
    + Added "Yahoo! Finance lookup" to the Edit/context menu.  (Thanks, P. Loshuk)
    + Pressing Enter now performs a Yahoo! Finance site lookup.  (Thanks, P. Loshuk)

In Fences, one can show/hide the desktop icons with a single click. I would like an app that will do that. I want to be able to place its icon in the taskbar so that it is always available. Do not want to have to right-click on desktop, open view submenu and select show/hide ...

Hi, nelsonpole, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.  An app called DeskSweeper will do what you want.

I'd like to make simple programs to start with.  Like this:

FWIW, that application is written in AutoHotkey but could have been written in any number of languages.

Hi, jf3000, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.  It might help to explain more about what the application does.  Is it simply a lookup type of database or something like that?  Also, maybe a screenshot with some data in it might help.

« Last post by skwire on May 16, 2013, 09:14 PM »
Sure, it can be done but I think I'll pass because, if the user selects a boatload of files, that dropdown list is going to be just as long and might slow things down.

That is my software site for applications I've written and released.  Everything you see there is written in AHK.

skwire, I know that AI comes with a "special version" of some editor, so there should be some possibilities somewhere, it's "doable", in theory.
-evamaria (May 16, 2013, 11:43 AM)

Sure, it's doable.  In fact, I have syntax highlighting in the editor I use for AHK (PSPad).  However, on the forum, it's just a simple keyword highlighter.  You can do it yourself when you write your own posts.  Highlight the code you want and choose the appropriate language from the 'Code Highlighting' dropdown.
