General Software Discussion / Re: Firefox 16 search engine keywords stored where?
« Last post by Ath on November 27, 2012, 01:58 PM »
That setting seems to be stored in the profile directory in a file called search-metadata.json

I changed the alias for Google to 'gggggl', and this is how it's stored:
Code: Text [Select]
  1. {"[app]/google.xml":{"used":1,"alias":"gggggl"}}

It references the search definitions as found in {firefoxProgramFilesDir}/searchplugins (*.xml)

As mouser said, but in other words: Get an external power supply for use with the writer. (Or at least a writer with an external power connector, so you can add the psu later)

Looks like you made a great deal!  :up:

The i3 processor (and the rest of the system) is fast enough for kids of her age, for doing what they need/want to do, and by the time she has some real work for her PC, she'll need a new one anyway because of this one being too low-tech by then. 8)

« Last post by Ath on November 21, 2012, 06:11 AM »
  • Classic Shell is probably the best way to avoid the new 'Modern UI' with tiles etc.
  • If no touch-capable I/O devices are detected, most touch functions won't have any impact on normal day-to-day use of Windows 8
    (and: Windows 7 already has integrated support for tablets and other 'touch' based devices too... :o)

« Last post by Ath on November 18, 2012, 08:51 AM »
Updated ScriptLineCounter to version 1.6.0.0

What's new/changed:
  • Added: New FileFormat nr. 4, based on doc-files supplied by Saira, the original initiator of this tool.
      note: This format is quite similar to FileFormat 2, so it may need to be forcibly used on some files/filesets.
  • Added: Setting the FileFormat from the commandline using -ff parameter, or set from the ini file, as documented in the readme.
  • Changed: GUI now has the Fileformat combo box enabled, to force a specific file format to be used.
  • Improved: Some more robustness while handling the file contents.
  • Added: A warning in the readme file to NOT use Windows Notepad for editing the properties files, as it inserts a BOM in UTF-8 files, not supported by SLC.

TODO: (in priority-order)
  • Improve and expand the GUI interface (partially done)
  • Add some unexpected features :)
  • Fix any bugs or issues reported (3 until now :o)
  • Possibly add headers and footers to the output
  • Replace own logging system by log4j (already required/used by some libs)
  • Handle pdf files for input
  • Handle extra file-format extracted from samples received (4 file-formats supported now)
  • Write a Readme.txt file
  • Create a GUI interface

And after that: Get VirtualBox, and install the required OS for the application (XP should probably do fine, but Windows 7 would imho be safer/more robust). Don't allow the guest-OS access to network or local resources.

@nkormanik: What f0dder said:
Also, almost forgot: what's the symptoms when you try to launch the application? If it's a "Windows failed to load JVM.DLL" kinda message, it might be as simple as a x64 vs x86 JRE version issue.
-f0dder (November 14, 2012, 02:33 PM)
You have (also) installed the x86 version of Java I assume? It sure looks like the SAS application is x86, and those are not capable of loading a x64 edition of the Java dll's. (If the application just shells out to a Java.exe then it would have worked as expected.)

Best suggestion for this direction so far is that it runs fine on Windows XP. It's highly unlikely that you are running XP x64, and unlike other software, Java needs to be installed in the bitness (x86/x64) of the application trying to use it, not the OS. On my x64 Windows I only have x86 Java installed, as I use no application(s) that require a x64 JVM.

NB: Full-blown Java applications shouldn't care nor matter what edition of the JVM is installed, except that the x64 edition has more memory available for applications.
