Find And Run Robot / Re: Need help with optional parameters in aliases

« Last post by skajfes on April 25, 2009, 03:09 AM »

this could be done.. tab would autocomplete and then add the ++ for you automatically so you could put some optional commandline options.  certainly i could add an option for this at the very least.

-mouser (April 24, 2009, 10:41 PM)

If that could be done, could a special character separator be used instead of the ++? something like ►, » or •? I am thinking that the user never has to type it, because we can use tab to autocomplete and add a separator, so why not use a character that is IMHO visually clearer?

I am thinking also if multiple parameters are needed you could just keep pressing tab to insert aditional separators. And I am not sure if this is needed in file browsing mode.....

im open to other ways to handle arguments with spaces.. it's just that tab is out of the question since it's used differently in farr.

-mouser (April 24, 2009, 05:58 AM)

is tab doing anything that i am missing? it autocompletes the text, right? if it's all it does why couldn't it be like launchy? autocomplete plus a separator for the arguments?

you can press Control+R to get the menu if you don't want to reach for the mouse..

or you can just press the i-don't-know-what-it-is-called-key right next to the alt button. This key does a right-click on the currently active item in windows.

skajfes I was trying to say that non c# plugins work fine and obviously it has to do with C# plugins because FARREnvironmentVariables  crashes Farr as well.

I cannot uninstall .net2 damn WIndows does not let me uninstall or reinstall

-kartal (April 17, 2009, 05:33 PM)

Ah, sorrry, its late overhere, I am not thinking clearly.

try this

[Select]

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

this should reinstall aspnet 2.0

the .js plugins work fine. But not the ones reference c# I think. How can I check the integrity of c# libraries on my system?

-kartal (April 17, 2009, 04:24 PM)

Who said anything about .js plugins? I've mentioned the FARREnvironmentVariables plugin which is a very simple C# plugin (to my knowledge) to test the c# plugin sdk.

Anyway, try reinstalling .net framework 2.0

i recently changed something in new farr version that was fixing an old oversight and it may have broken these 2 plugins.  basically farr was passing the search keyword in the search string to the plugin, and it shouldn't.  the fix made klipkeeper start working again, but its possible that these two plugins depend on that bug and need to be rebuilt..

-mouser (April 17, 2009, 12:02 PM)

I don't think that's the problem... I have both those plugins installed and no problem whatsoever.

@kartal: Try removing both those plugins, and install some other c# plugin, like FARREnvironmentVariables or something. See what happens? If it breaks, i suspect something with c# sdk and your system is not right. If everything is alright then it is something with the plugins in question.
Also try finding c:\FARRCalendar.log or <farrinstalldir>\calendar.log or <plugindir>\calendar\calendar.log (i know i should make this better but i don't know which version of the plugin you have and I was in the middle of moving the logs between the versions...) and see if it was changed recently...

You can get the latest fscript.dll that fix the problem at : http://e.craft.free....ipt/fscript.1.16.dll and replace fscript.dll into your fsubscript folder.

Find And Run Robot / Fsubscript doesn't play well with others

« Last post by skajfes on April 14, 2009, 03:16 PM »

I have noticed that if Fsubscript plugin is running, i can't scroll down the results in Process Kill, Network connections, or KlipKeeper plugins.

For example, I activate the ProcessKill plugin by typing in "kill", the list of running processes shows up, and when I press down to pick a result I get this:



Note that if I just press enter in the input text box (without pressing down to pick the results) the first result activates normally. I can even execute other results by adding text to filter them out until the desired one gets to the top so I can execute it with just pressing enter. If I disable Fsubscript everything works as expected, and with Fsubscript active there is no problem with my other list displaying plugins (Calendar and Clipboard).

Any ideas?

Import this into FARR

Or you can simply copy the attached file to <FARR installation folder>\AliasGroups\MyCustom\

Find And Run Robot / Re: Farr and Rainlendar?

« Last post by skajfes on April 06, 2009, 06:29 PM »

I have run some tests and when I override the regex the plugin never gets called. It is initialized on FARR start and all, but that's it, no subsequent calls are made to the plugin. Mouser, any ideas?
In the meantime here's a newer version. I've managed to remove {0,1} from the regex and put a default alias cal which should not interfere with calc plugin.

Yeah, after some further testing I have managed to narrow it down to the c# sdk. The c# layer never checks if the plugin settings like regex are overriden.

EDIT: Overriding the regex should work just fine now.

did you add a space after "cal"? this is the most important thing....
can't you change the regex to something completly different? cc, kal, calendar, blabla... ?

I don't get it. I have jscalc with calc as keyboard, and calendar as "cal " defined as keyword (notice the space after cal). When i type calc jscalc activates, when I type cal calendar activates... Maybe i am missing something?

Find And Run Robot / Re: Farr and Rainlendar?

« Last post by skajfes on April 05, 2009, 08:33 AM »

It is the problem with the C# SDK. For some reason the sdk is adding " {0,1}" to whatever keyword is defined in the plugin meaning that the keyword with or without trailing space will trigger the plugin.
Just add a custom keyword with a trailing space in the plugins dialog and you should be just fine.

That is really cool! This plugin should be part of Farr release.

Hey, thanks!

If you can simply explain how to format visible data in Farr window that would be great.

-kartal (March 31, 2009, 03:19 PM)

You just put html codes in the strings for caption and group. Caption is bold by default so if you want non bold text you put it between

[Select]

</b> <b>

This closes the bold tag and opens it again later (kind of like an sql injection, but for html ). You can also use

[Select]

<br>

to start a new line etc. Mouser should know more...

I do not have much clue about regex stuff myself.

-kartal (March 31, 2009, 03:19 PM)

Regex is used to extract description, dates, times, categories, calendars and locations from the input string. I think there really is no need for changing the regex, but I have put what I feel is simple enough, and thus the option for changing. If you want to play around with it you can use http://gskinner.com/RegExr/ for examining and building regex.

It should work with any .ics calendar. I used Dday library for access to the calendars and they say they comply with standards. You'll find a log in c:\FARRCalendar.txt that should say what's wrong with it. If I am not mistaken, you should get an error that the file is used by another process. I am currently on a different computer and it is not working either for the same reason. I hope to get this fixed as soon as I get home.

By the way, My Phone Explorer works with .ics calendars too (not i realtime though). It is a great way to sync your rainlendar with your SonyEricsson.

EDIT: I found an error. i forgot to put the dll in the package..... so here it is.

Find And Run Robot / Re: Farr and Rainlendar?

« Last post by skajfes on March 30, 2009, 07:11 PM »

Well i couldn't sleep....

So here goes... I've managed to get the plugin to a runnable state and it should work with no problem. Just unzip it to plugins folder, and go to options and set the calendars.

By default you type "cal " to input an event, "cal todo" to input a task. Dates and times should be recognized normally. You can view existing events or tasks by typing "cal todos" and "cal events". I am not sure if it works correctly but you can do a "cal sum" with additional dates or categories to get a total time of events for a period of time. You can specify categories with "+category", location with "@location",  calendar with "!calendar" and separate description from summary with "|".

If you take a look in the advanced options window (found in plugin properties) you can see a list of calendars along with their name(this is the name the plugin uses to identify calendars), some keywords and some regular expressions. Set the correct calendar path or you'll get an exception. I think that other fields are self explanatory but here goes, you can set which keywords you want to use for adding a task, viewing a list of tasks and events. You can also set regular expressions for recognising dates and times, calendars, locations, categories etc. Defaults work pretty fine so there no real need to change them unless you know what you are doing.

NOTE:
- first calendar in settings is considered default so if no calendar is specified, that one is used.

EDIT: I found an error. i forgot to put the dll in the package..... so here is the updated package.

You can add rainlander events trough -a or --add command switch of rainlendar2.exe but is very limited. It only ads events trough default template and does not allow setting categories and such.

I wrote a plugin some time ago that inserts and displays events directly from ics calendars (which rainlendar uses) which has some more flexibility. But it is beta, and abandoned as i really don't have a need for it anymore. If you are willing to wait I can port it to new c# sdk and get it to somewhat runnable state. Or if anyone wants to mess arround with bad c# code i am willing to post the code.
