General Software Discussion / Re: scan a folder and subfolders for compressed files....

« Last post by Contro on September 02, 2013, 05:25 PM »

I know my friend. He is thinking in automation. A script able to collect the rar and zip files and extracto to the same folder.

That's the point.

In his own words translated : Programa que recorra un árbol de carpetas descomprimiendo los "zip" y "rar" que se encuentre y deje los archivos descomprimidos en la misma carpeta.....

Program to scan a folder tree decompressing the zip and rar file that are found and decompressed this files in the same folder where they are found.


Note : jiiiiiiii . He is learning english and perhaps in a time he will post directly. I hope so.

I was going to suggest any file manager that will give you a "flat" view - i.e. in one pane it will show you all files in a folder *and* all it's sub-folders.
Then sort by filetype.
In Directory Opus you can then filter the files - probably in other managers too.

But why dont you simply use some quality search programme? e.g. XYplorer does both - possible that the last free version will do flat view as well but I dont know (I think in XY it's called something else)

best of luck ;-)

jejejeje. Think together.
Directory opus make what we need ?
They have a trial and once done is enough
Exactly what he needs...... my "prestige" is in game.....

I have remember now : Directory Opus.
I remember have a trial.
The program I ask is not for me. Is for a linux lover that only uses folders for organizing and need decompressed. I have many programs in compressed modes and don't need decompress.

General Software Discussion / Advanced search in folders of PDF files

« Last post by Contro on September 01, 2013, 10:22 AM »

Many pdf software is able to search inside a pdf or a group (folder) of PDF
like
http://www.docu-trac...e_Tools/pdfx_viewer/

but I would like an additional thing. Use collections in virtual folders. I have try to select a folder with shortkeys (direct access..) but pdf-xchange don't go to read the real file in the original place.
adobe reader nevertheless....

How can I create collections for special searches not only in the ways of physical folders as also as virtual folders.

I have examined the basic documentation of

FileHand
Is not basically portable and for me is a point to be portable. Depends upon on net de microsoft
and seems a little old....

Copernic Desktop Search ... The free version don't offer the possibilities of the paid version.

X1 Product Suite well reputated in software comparisons may be useful for biggest enterprises environtments.

Exalead from Dassault Systems. I know from this house de CAD program Draftsight . I register an account but I don't understand very well. Seems the integration of your local searchs with a web engine search. I will received information

and finally DocFetcher 1.1.8
In one web tell tha the project was stopped, but in the documentation I can read 2013 and they had a forum
Is open source
I have provisionally adopted
First thing to do is create indexes of the folders you want to scan inside PDF and many other types of files. But that is other story......

Best Regards
 

There are a lot more.
My personal opinion is that type of programs will be "devorated" by the operative systems. In fact windows 7 have a quick search option.....

Not sure whether this might be of use:

MS Word 2013 seems to be able to convert PDFs to a Word doc, and then lets you get on and edit it as such...
I haven't used it other than to see if it works. Seems to be pretty good - and fast. Tried it on a PDF with several images in. The Word doc file size seems to be a good deal bigger than its source PDF file size though.

I am using Everything to search my disks under 7
I was using locate32 under xp
and are very goods program

I know some programs able to search inside binary files, but not in a pre-search or configuring a database for more fast and powerful searches.

I would like, if possible, something similar for PDF files. Pre Scanning often to control any search. Like Everything. (background indexing)

Is it possible ?(is posssssibleeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!  )

Similar in price, and you can check the 30 days demo, if it works.

-anandcoral (August 27, 2013, 12:41 PM)

I've also been very happy with Beyond Compare.  I didn't suggest it for this thread because I've never used it to compare a word document with one in pdf.

General Software Discussion / AutoIt limitations

« Last post by Contro on August 29, 2013, 07:40 PM »

The most useful tool i have is my CRM Goldmine 5.5
Some time ago I ask a good friend of mine to make me a script with a suggested name : linkfolder
And he did me a marvellous script.
Is a script basically only I can use in all his possibilities. Because is used in combination with my goldmine 5.5.
But he tells me that a feature I would like to have was not possible with AutoIt capabilities and invite me to ask to other programmers about possible solutions.
That is exactly what i am doing now.
i have the code and put here.
LinkFolder can read folders and subfolders and make links to my goldmine in different ways. For me is important to document steps and thoughts.
Offers me a rapport of preselect folders and archives i can link.
But some times i need to retire some of those folders and archives. the affected screen don't accept multiple selection option. So in a preselected screen with a pair of thousand files is very unconfortable deleted the unwanted ones.
I refer to the control or shift multi selection capabilities.
Initially we have the additional problem that when i delete an item goes allways to the first item. In a long list was very unconfortable. But this is solved.

What Would I like ? multi select option screen capabilities with some trick, some lines of code in any language we can add. AHK is brother of AutoIt.

I only upload the main script. But i have all if necessary. (edited, the rar contains all modules and the ini file)
All alternative solution is welcome.
what i need basically is a quick selection system

Best Regards

The password of the rar file is : autoit


Edited 11.09.2013.18.08 to attach the last version LinkFolder

Macro Scheduler is a very serious program .
As everybody knows i am a dummie and not programmer. I'll try to see If I can understand something.
 
The program is perfectly organized in commands types. Have examples. I supposed a normal person in a few hours is making scripts. 
Have image recognition (screencapture). Many options
It seems so easy than launch the command in the left and insert according to what you need to do.
Offers an interactive help in any selection you do and probably the best way to learn is with an initial script. I have tried this with many other programs. But I have a very bad memory and make me nervous.
But I will try because I am studying with anki .
We hace nowadays a lot of options,but surely for me the best is use the marvellous snacks and freebies from DC.

I have used AHK a lot but more recently I favour Quick Macros, which is a very powerful tool with low resource usage. Reasonably low cost and highly recommended.

This wonderful program seems not have OCR recognition.
I thin integration software is a special way of relate and integrate old software in a single application with theses scripts maker.
