in TO DO list would love to add some more script formats
-Saira (March 23, 2012, 12:00 AM)
It's on the list*, just didn't write it in the post  ;)

is thr any possibility to import pdf also ?
-Saira (March 23, 2012, 12:00 AM)
Hm, that may depend on the pdf thrown at it. Some don't allow text to be copied/taken from them, depending on settings used during creation. I'll investigate that soon.

... wanted to keep the post alive .
-Saira (March 23, 2012, 12:00 AM)
No issue, just a few days of lower activity here because of other obligations :tellme:

Updated ScriptLineCounter to version 1.3.0.0

What's new/changed:
Version 1.3.0.0:
  • Added: GUI mode, but just in beta mode for now (-gui), using Swing with MigLayout, still a lot to add and improve
  • Improved: Layout according to received sample (b/w and some fonts larger)
Version 1.2.1.0: (not actually released :tellme:)
  • Improved: Sort by Lines is now enabled by default
  • Improved: Totals column is now bold
  • Improved: Episode title is now right-aligned to better mate with episode titles
  • Improved: Less verbose if matchVerbose was added from .ini
  • Added: SortByName (-n) overrides -s
  • Added: Alternate grey/white background (-a), default enabled
  • Added: Zero counts are now suppressed by default, -z enables zeroes
  • Improved: Code changes/refactoring
  • Added: Changelog.txt.file, extension .file because .txt is excluded from svn commit

TODO: (in random order)
  • Write a Readme.txt file
  • Create a GUI interface
  • Improve and expand the GUI interface
  • Possibly add headers and footers to the output
  • Add some unexpected features :)
  • Fix any bugs or issues reported (2 until now :o)

2 possible solutions:
- Create an image right after you've done all updates and settings, and restore that next time you need a refresh
- Use the Microsoft supplied install automation tooling (WAIK is the keyword I guess) if you need to run it on different hardware

This example is different again in that it's a PDF within the browser - presumably in Adobe Reader?
-tomos (March 17, 2012, 11:31 AM)
Assuming you addressed me:
No, I don't have Adobe reader installed, but Foxit PDF reader. AFAIK that doesn't have a plug-in for Chrome (in contrary to FireFox), so I guess Chrome handles pdf display itself.

Only action I did to ease the capture, is I made sure I could scroll the pdf with the mousewheel, then did the capture, using the recommended test and everything auto-guessed, with the 1 correction I wrote about in my previous post.

I just made a near perfect scrolling screenshot using Chrome 19 (build 1061-dev), only issue is that SSC didn't correctly auto-detect the right margin of the screenshot. but that was easily adjusted.

What version of ScreenShotCaptor are you actually using, it sounds as if you have a pre-3.0 version? The version number is in the About screen. If not version 3, then first upgrade and re-try 8)

Please give 'names and numbers' for the browsers and pdf readers (that integrate into your browser(s)) you've used in your attempts, so others can replay and try to discover why it isn't working for you :o

I've finished a rough first version. It only handles .rtf files, and is command-line controlled for now, but it works :)

The pre-requisite is to have Sun/Oracle Java 6 installed, grab JRE 6 release 31 here. (Though not yet tested with Java 7, it should work fine)

The get the download from my (DC supplied) webspace, unzip into some directory, open a command prompt there, and use a command-line like:

Code: Text [Select]
  1. ScriptLineCounter -p scriptfilesdir -x scripttitle.xlsx

It expects a subdirectory called scriptfiles, as specified by -p (if spaces are involved use double-quotes around the name), processes all files with .rtf extension, and creates an Excel file (.xls or .xlsx as specified) in the current directory with the name supplied at the -x parameter.

I'll be working on .doc and .docx support, and a GUI for easier 'control'. And a readme also has to be supplied :tellme:

Questions/support in this thread for now, I'll officially release in a separate thread if it's a bit more mature :-[

Thanks for these interesting links and site!

But those articles weren't written when I wrote Excel2Html :D, and they require Excel to be used, so it won't run unattended on a server or on Linux, if that is a requirement.

What happens if you bring up a command prompt and use one of those commands directly at the prompt?
-skwire (March 14, 2012, 06:01 PM)
-then the job is done at once :-)
-Curt (March 14, 2012, 06:25 PM)
That depends on the type of Command prompt, a 'standard' one or an 'Administrator' command prompt, as the last one has better privileges and can execute nearly anything with admin rights :tellme:

I AM the administrator of my PC. Guest account is not activated. The problem may be HOW various programs are installed, and/or where their shortcut is situated ("Curt-user" vs "All users"). It now #seems# to me that in general it is mostly a question of not double-clicking installation files, but right-click > Run as admin'. But I am not yet certain of this. Please teach me! On my previous computers I would always just double-click the installer, and never had this new problem.

I've seen similar 'issues' with downloads using IE9 on other Inno Setup based installers lately (in the Inno Setup newsgroups). Case of 'meh' I guess, or another way of pestering small software vendors.

A few questions:

@all:
Has anybody started working on this already? If not, I'm interested to start something, to be finished in a couple of days/a week, as I won't be working on it full-time ;)

@Saira:
- What input format is to be expected most often? rtf or doc(x)?
- Where does the extra column with names come from? Is there some mapping of character names to a list of actual participants in the play?
- Do you have the need to merge results of several runs into 1 output xls(x) file?

BTW, I'll be using Apache POI components in the Java application I'll be writing, so a working install of Java 6 (JRE, latest revision is recommended) will be required to run the application.
