. I see a game where you can win a big BMW. I´ll try this today...
. The problem is how to create compatible states, because internally the categories and subcategories have a singular number and new categories/subcategories must be inserted the right way that they´re not leading to collisions. I wanted to do this later. An index isn´t useful. All entries should be inserted by their creation date.--- if I click on a record and then decide to insert a new record, it makes a copy of the one I'm on. Is it supposed to do that?-> Yes. I made this because often some special cases appear again and again and so I only have to click on an old case, can change it if I like and so simply can insert and create a new ticket. It could be interesting to analyze the repeats of similar tasks/tickets.
--- having your categories read from the file makes it hard to set up some existing projects and categories, especially without an option to do it directly. You actually have to enter tasks to enter category information.-> Really? Creating categories and subcategories should work without any tasks. Please describe a more detailed example how to get this problem.
I've been using Task Coach Portable lately and it also saves all the data, including categories, in the main data file but it has options to enter them separately. I like Task Coach but don't actually need the overhead and all the features. It's written in Python, so it takes up a lot of disk space.-> I wanted a lightweighted solution that saves as small files as possible and has only the features I personally need. This is the reason why I save categories/subcategories only one time at the header and use their index along with the tasks. I also planed to insert zip or 7z support for the datas if it doesn´t slows down too much.
I hope you continue to develop your CrushPad. It's nice to have choices.-> At the moment other projects have a higher priority but I never wanted to stop its development. All of my programs could get new functions in the future at the latest when I personally need them. (Besides, I use my own programs quite often
)
(I only hoped to get one of these mugs as reward or perhaps nothing)
Some very bad news for germans have come up today: During the AES process, everyone agreed that Rijndael was the risky choice, Serpent was the conservative choice, and Twofish was in the middle. To have Serpent be the first to fall (albeit marginally), and to have Rijndael fall so far so quickly, is something no one predicted.I become a little bit sceptic when I see that NIST and the NSA wants everybody to use AES for public encryption. Would they really want you all to use an encryption they cannot decrypt without big efforts? Organisations that insist and live from controlling, information gathering and knowing everything about everybody doesn´t seem to be a trustful source for hints and tips. But if you trust in public recommendations of the inventors of the gigantic Echelon project
, ok - it´s your decision .. With such an attitude I would never take a close look to other programs like FARR, fSekrit or other cool things you can find here or anywhere else. I posted the code to other programmers that also said to me this could be a too simple way of encryption. After taking a look on it they admitted it´s impossible for them to say something about it´s safety but the principle should work. If someone has questions I will be here to answer them as good as possible. I started to work on this encryption about 6 years ago for granting a very secure user validation to access a delicate program I made for a big concern and I also want to use it for other things I created in the future. You can believe me. It´s not done just for fun over the weekend. If I see other new cool ideas and improvements I´ll try to integrate them into my Cryptonizer algorithm to even make it better.
