Find And Run Robot / Re: Farr configuration decision: what's your opinion?

Possibly the hotkey functionality makes the start post functionality obsolete and can be removed?

-justice (July 21, 2007, 07:30 AM)

That "start text" has been moved to the hotkey system, the screnshot i grabbed is from the "hotkey configuration" menu.

Hmm... Careful with the possiblity of having email addresses stolen for spam lists, though
Those guys don't seem to offer any payed service, thus, as nothing comes for free, their catch must be just that.

I wonder why that doesn't work. The keypresses are being sent correctly, so there should be no problem.
Yes, you can remove the first 2 lines, no problem.

Another variation:

[Select]

F5::
  send,{alt down}{shift down}3{shift up}{alt up}
  return

When you uncomment them, ahk doesn't load because the second line has an error, it is incomplete.

Try this instead of the last line:

[Select]

F5::
  send,!+3
  return

Find And Run Robot / Farr configuration decision: what's your opinion?

« Last post by jgpaiva on July 20, 2007, 06:07 PM »

Mouser has made a small but important change on the latest version of farr.
I'm in disagreement with it, but mouser presented a good explanation for this change.
He opted by adding an option for this, but we're wondering which one should be the default setting.

So here's the change. On previous versions, when you had something selected on the following option:


When you started farr, you'd get something like:


Now, you get something like:


The difference is in the editbox, before, the text was pre-selected, now it isn't.
My rationale for having it selected, is that when you bring up farr, you can just type and search for anything.
Mouser's rationaly for not having it selected, is that if you have an alias like the pre-included "search" alias, you might want to call farr and just complete the command line.

So, the question is: which one do you prefer? the old method or the new method?

Actually, there's a serious difference between portuguese and brazilian portuguese, that's why i said i can't do the brazilian one, recently i read a brazilian blog entry and wasn't able to understand much more than our fellow lashiec, which is spanish

DC Website Help and Extras / Re: New PC with Windows Vista and LaCie ICON is MISSING.

« Last post by jgpaiva on July 19, 2007, 04:50 PM »

I'm not sure if this is the case, but it might happen that the system icons cache was currupted somehow.
I found this program on the web: http://www.filedudes...-download-25312.html

You may have noticed that sometimes the Desktop and Windows Explorer start to display the wrong Icons for some file types. Running RefreshEm when they do repairs the Windows Icon Cache so that the proper ones are immediately displayed.

Disclaimer: i've never tried it, and am not sure if it's related to your problem, it's just what i'd do if i had a similar problem.

I also spend an uncomfortable amount of time (whole seconds!) on a clients computer wondering why "pause/break" doesn't work, only to realize that they of course dont have FARR installed.

-Tekzel (July 19, 2007, 01:35 PM)

Here's another idea: "Farr beats the portability of it's contestants! It can be transported on your mind, all you have to do is touch the other person's computer, and farr will install itself!!"

Not a quiz, but I will make a hangman game. That would make a nice plugin game.

-tinjaw (July 19, 2007, 02:28 PM)

The problem with hangman games are that those usually only work for a language (english, in this case).

I like the idea about a quiz for regex. Something like:
"give an example of what the following reges would match:"

FARR Plugins and Aliases / Re: Requesting good alias files

« Last post by jgpaiva on July 19, 2007, 06:16 AM »

And... Guess what?
Yep, one more alias pack.

This one includes:

• +zip action, to zip files
  
• +del action, which allows you to either recycle or delete files
  
• +edit action, to open files in notepad (you can also adapt this to your favourite editor)

Those are all actions, which means they have no predifined format.
There's also an "encrypt" alias, which follows the following format:

file encrypt password
Thus, the best way to use it is to find the file, press -tab-, type "encrypt" (although you can only type "enc"), press space, type password and -enter-.
The encrypted file will be self-extracting, encrypted with 7zip with the specified password and will be created in the same directory as the original file was.

This time there's no "main menu", because these are all actions and i didn't know how to do that menu. Any suggestions on how to do it are welcome.


PS: the zip action needs a better icon, i think..

[edit] added a version which confirms recycling of files (both confirm deletion of files) [/edit]
