Finished Programs / Re: DONE: make folder set out of a txt file

« Last post by skwire on October 25, 2012, 10:46 AM »

Hi, mandolin, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.  Let me give your request some thought.  You are aware you can create subfolders by using backslashes, right?  For example, to create your example above, you could use:

c:\folder1\subfolder1
c:\folder1\subfolder2\subsubfolder2
c:\folder1\subfolder3

N.A.N.Y. 2010 / Re: NANY 2010 Release: ClipTrap

« Last post by skwire on October 25, 2012, 10:43 AM »

As of right now ClipTrap overwrites an existing file without any notice.  Poof.  All the previous clippings saved vanish and are substituted with a new set.  User ought to at least get a warning.

I'm not sure what you're getting at.  If you try to save using a filename that already exists, you will get the standard "blah blah already exists.  Do you want to replace it?"  Is that not notice enough?

General Software Discussion / Re: replace files in batch

« Last post by skwire on October 23, 2012, 08:38 AM »

Here's an AuotHotkey snippet that should do it (adjust variables as necessary).  However, run it on a test folder structure first.

Code: Autohotkey [Select]

1. myDir := "c:\tmp6"                 ; Will be recursed.
2. myFileName := "File.txt"           ; Filename to look for.  Name only, no path.
3. myReplacementFile := "c:\File.txt" ; Full path to replacement file.
4.  
5. Loop, % myDir . "\*.*", 0, 1
6. {
7.     If ( A_LoopFileName = myFileName )
8.     {
9.         FileCopy, % myReplacementFile, % A_LoopFileFullPath, 1
10.     }
11. }

General Software Discussion / Re: replace files in batch

« Last post by skwire on October 22, 2012, 08:18 PM »

This is easy to do but there is one caveat.  Do you want to replace the "contents" of these filenames with your specific file or do you want to replace the entire file with a new file.  For example:

Assume the files that need replacing are named File.txt.  Assume the file you want to use as a replacement is named NewFile.txt.

1) Did you want to replace the contents of File.txt with the contents of NewFile.txt (thus leaving the original File.txt name in place)?

2) Or, did you want to completely replace File.txt with NewFile.txt.

Of course, this scenario is moot if you're looking to replace File.txt with a completely different file that is also named File.txt.

Hi, rogerrabbit, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.

Is there any way that the current date can be added automatically to the folder name?

-rogerrabbit (October 09, 2012, 05:01 AM)

Not currently, but I certainly could add the functionality.  Stay tuned.

Welcome to the site, huismus.  The biggest obstacle in your idea is almost certainly going to be trying to capture that drag & drop event.  Personally, I don't think it can be done elegantly from outside of MS Outlook.

Hi, ConstanceJill, and welcome to the site.  I had meant to reply to your original post but it slipped my mind.  Apologies.

In regards to your request, does it have to be physical buttons on the GUI?  Interfaces like that can get really messy if you plan on adding a large number of these commands.  What about using a listview where you can double-click a row to run a command.  Or, highlight a row and click a single button to run a command?

We've been working offline on this.  On first run, the program creates an INI file.  Adjust as necessary and choose reload from the tray menu.

Clipboard Help+Spell / Re: Remote Desktop / mstsc / rdpclip Woes

« Last post by skwire on September 20, 2012, 05:25 PM »

FWIW, I don't think this is a CHS-specific issue; moreso, I think it's a generic clipboard or clipboard manager issue.

I use ArsClip and have occasionally experienced exactly what you describe with RDP sessions.  It doesn't happen that often (maybe once every few weeks) and a reboot of the remote side seems to fix things for me.  Note that I use this RDP session daily for several hours per day so an occurrence once every few weeks isn't that often.
