take X supported template, drop the note text into the middle of it, and resave the file, and recurse for all the eligible files in a folder.

-TaoPhoenix (March 11, 2012, 03:50 AM)

Question, does the "note text" go into the same place in the template every time?

So, as an example:

1) Read in text contents of note_text_1.txt file.
2) Read in template.html file.
3) Insert note_text_1.txt file contents into a specified place within the template file.
4) Save off combined contents as note_text_1.html.
5) Lather, rinse, repeat for other note_text_#.txt files.

Is this what you're after?

I really have no idea then.  I'm not all that well-versed in W7 so maybe somebody else can offer more.

I know some folks will scoff at the idea of a database-less CMS but, if it's a small-ish site, you can always use something like FlatPress.  That's what I use for my Skwire Empire site.

« Last post by skwire on March 14, 2012, 09:03 AM »

Ah, crap.  I apologise for this and, after some digging, I know what caused it.  It has to do with compiling as Unicode but trying to read the older ANSI birthdays.txt file.  Man, what a stupid oversight on my part.  I hope I didn't cause you guys too much work.      I am very sorry.

« Last post by skwire on March 10, 2012, 05:46 PM »

What about the send direct to text files?  Thoughts?

-nkormanik (March 10, 2012, 04:42 PM)

This is rather easy in AutoHotkey with a simple script.  In other words, I really don't want to make a full-fledged application out of it.  Consider this example (change the DestPath variable to suit your needs):

Code: Autohotkey [Select]

1. #Persistent
2. DestPath := "c:\tmp"
3. Startup := 1
4. Return ; End of auto-execute section.
5.  
6.  
7. OnClipboardChange:
8. {
9.     If ( Startup )
10.     {
11.         Startup := 0
12.         Return
13.     }
14.    
15.     FileAppend, % Clipboard, % DestPath . "\ClipSave_" . GenUniqueFilename( DestPath ) . ".txt"
16. }
17. Return
18.  
19.  
20. GenUniqueFilename( sPath )
21. {
22.     Loop
23.     {
24.         If FileExist( sPath . "\ClipSave_" . A_Index . ".txt" )
25.         {
26.             Continue
27.         }
28.         Else
29.         {
30.             Return A_Index
31.         }
32.     }
33. }

« Last post by skwire on March 08, 2012, 05:26 PM »

Yeah, I was afraid of that.  I changed the priority of the OnClipboardChange thread which should have buffered stuff better.  However, doing that sometimes affect other things out of my control.  I'll revert that change.  I'm curious, though, about what you observed with that version.

In the meantime, I've added the following:

I really like ReNamer because it lets you set up separate renaming "steps" and then save them all as a preset to easily use over and over.  Good stuff.

Can ListNumberer work from the command line?

-nkormanik (March 07, 2012, 05:32 PM)

No, it cannot.

Would be nice to set it up in a process chain so that, say, 'zero-padding' a folder of files (with titles numbered 1.txt through 1000.txt) is a single 'double-click' operation.

-nkormanik (March 07, 2012, 05:32 PM)

Hmmm...List Numberer is not a file renamer.  If you're looking to easily renumber files like that, take a look at one of my favourite renamer applications called, oddly enough, ReNamer.  You can easily set up a ruleset that will do what you want like this:

Thanks, mouser.   

Nicholas, try this build:  ClipTrap v1.0.5.2

I made a single change to the clipboard watcher thread that may or may not work.  I still would suggest inserting delays in between your copy operations, though.

I think that is outside the scope of the application.  However, you may be able to leverage my List Numberer program to do what you want.

The clipboard can be a fickle beast.  That being said, I never really designed ClipTrap to be a heavy-duty clipboard manager.  I wrote it to fill a gap between having no clipboard manager and the heavy-duty ones.  If it's missing captures, I'm not sure writing the data to disk is really going to help anything, you know?  How much data are you copying at a time?
