If the path has spaces, be sure to double-quote them like this:

del /S /F "c:\path\to\my\folder\*.wma"
del /S /F "c:\path\to\my\folder\*.m3u"
del /S /F "c:\path\to\my\folder\*.tunebite"

  2. del /S /F c:\path\to\my\folder\*.m3u

Sample rate and Channels columns use the AudioGenie3 DLL so Win9x support is out for those.  I'll try to look into the ModDate column for Win9x.

« Last post by skwire on December 31, 2011, 08:21 AM »
I simplified a few things where you were duplicating a lot of code when using the whole alphabet.  You'll see what I mean.  Also, I tried to clean up and indent your code a bit.  I'm not a fan of including labels/functions within other labels/functions so, if you would like, I can clean it up much further than this.  Here you go:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]

N.A.N.Y. 2011 / Re: NANY 2011 Release: Snap DB
« Last post by skwire on December 30, 2011, 02:34 PM »
Downloaded the version and I don't see any change in behavior I was referring to.
I am referring to File > Export rows to CSV file. The whole File menu disappears when I click on the checkbox for Filter/Read-Only mode.
To clarify further, it would be nice to be able to export a subset of records based on the filtered rows that are displayed.
-daddydave (December 30, 2011, 12:11 PM)

Sorry, I was focused on the toolbar button which was still available.  I've added back a subset of the File menu, while in filter mode, in this next build.

I like the Web Search. I set it to search pronunciations from Forvo: http://www.forvo.com/search-hi/$$1 It works great from the right click menu, but nothing happens when I press Ctrl-W (which I think is generally used for "close window", but I don't know if that matters.
-daddydave (December 30, 2011, 12:11 PM)

Uh...yeah...about that.   :-[  See the latest build.    :D  Let me know if that works how you like.

Website | Download
v1.3.6 - 2011-12-30
    * Changed the filter mode so a subset of the File menu is available.
    ! If you're going to hotkey an action, it helps to actually add the code for
      said hotkey.  Ctrl+W now works for the new web search functionality added
      in the previous version.  (Thanks, daddydave)

Finished Programs / Re: DONE: Drop target to move files to predefined folders
« Last post by skwire on December 29, 2011, 11:18 AM »
[BUGS]
  • If two items exist in the ini and one is not a valid path the popup is not created and the operation is executed with the first valid path as the target. (maybe on load you should warn of invalid paths and give the item number)
  • "Reload Settings" attempts to perform the last completed operation again, but with the target of the first valid path in the ini.
-dragonmage (December 28, 2011, 01:16 PM)

Drop Zone has a feature where, if there is only one valid path configured, no menu will pop up.  However, you do make a good point about informing users about bad paths.  Regarding the "Reload Settings" issue, I'll take a look.

Functionality
  • I can't seem to find an easy way to set the target to the Recycle Bin. Any ideas?
  • It would be nice to have a quick way to open the target folders. Maybe an "Open Folder" submenu in the context menu that lists all the items by label name. Selecting one opens the corresponding folder. With only one target maybe the folder can be opened by a click or doubleclick on the window.
  • Here's a biggie. Would it be possible to have an alternate mode where you send files to applications rather than folders? It would be great if you could specify arguments in the ini as well.
-dragonmage (December 28, 2011, 01:16 PM)

1) I just tried it with the CLSID for the Recycle Bin and it didn't work so I'd assume that it can't be done without some internal code changes.

2) Good idea.  I'll consider adding this.

3) No, I think it would be outside the scope of the program.  You may want to check out DropIt, another similar app with much more capabilities.

Appearance
  • Set border color.
  • Set transparency
  • And the biggie... Make it skinnable! Transparent PNG support for the background.
-dragonmage (December 28, 2011, 01:16 PM)

You won't see skinned stuff from me as it's not my style or preference at all.  Again, check out DropIt and see if it's more suited to your tastes.  Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.   :)

You already can.  Simply drag-n-drop the columns in whichever order you wish.  Their order and widths will automatically be saved when you exit the program.

If you're serious about taking screenshots, I'd recommend a dedicated screenshot tool like mouser's own Screenshot Captor.  However, to answer your original request, here's an AutoHotkey snippet that will do the job:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. $PrintScreen::
  2. $!PrintScreen::
  3. {
  4.     If ( A_ThisHotkey = "$PrintScreen" )
  5.     {

  7.     }
  8.     Else If ( A_ThisHotkey = "$!PrintScreen" )
  9.     {
  10.         SendInput, !{PrintScreen}
  11.     }
  12.     ClipWait, 5, 1
  13.     Run, mspaint.exe, , , myPID
  14.     WinWait, % "ahk_pid " . myPID
  15.     WinActivate, % "ahk_pid " . myPID
  16.     WinWaitActive, % "ahk_pid " . myPID
  17.     SendInput, ^v
  18. }
  19. Return
