 :-[ Uh oh, I actually forgot to put in the code! There's nothing there but the messagebox!

 :) Try MoveOut v1.2.

About the command line, I'll get back to it. I'm having trouble running MoveOut on Vista, seems there's some limitation in AutoHotkey. Looks like I'll have to recode the whole app...

 :) To access programs running on a different monitor, try my MultiMonMan. But it starts by default on your primary monitor, so it might not be of any help to you. Actually, I've never thought of this problem... I'll look into adding a hotkey or something to move MultiMonMan to the monitor where the mouse is.

Adding a virtual keyboard or mouse is possible, too.

 :) If you can live with having the icons farther apart, try changing the horizontal icon spacing in your desktop settings.

It's explained here: http://www.microsoft.../tips/iconspace.mspx

It is also possible to make the desktop display icons in details view, a list, small icons, icons and side by side, just like any explorer window.

General Software Discussion / Re: Software to compress large pdf files

 :) Use IrfanView with the Postscript and ImPDF plugins from http://www.irfanview.com to decrease the colors, reduce the quality, or whatever you have to do to shrink those PDF files.

And it's free!

I use this command line to make black and white PDFs:
i_view32.exe "in.pdf" /bpp=1 /convert="out.pdf"

 :) @phillfri: So far it's hardcoded, but I'll put it in the ini later. But the source code is available. Office 2007 has dropped menus all together, and Barnacle can't even extract the proper window dimensions. So there's yet another Windows standard down the drain... I'll look into this...

@ moongoon: I've not tested W2K, anyone got it working?

Just uploaded Barnacle v0.992, adding System Menu selection, for minimizing and maximizing and more.

 :) Or for a proper random, proper restart, transparent, maximized version, try BadCountDown.

Save the script as BadCountDown.ahk, download and install AutoHotkey to run.

It uses ethan's images, so place the images in subfolder called images, and name them LED0.gif through LED9.gif.

 :tellme: @lanux128: I'm planning global buttons. No, toolbars are harder to control, as they are owned by the application. But it is doable...

@bliss: Does the extra bar change color if you tell it to? If so, it could be the icon loading...

All operating systems support GIF, JPG, BMP, ICO, CUR, and ANI images. On Windows XP or later, additional image formats such as PNG, TIF, Exif, WMF, and EMF are supported. Operating systems older than XP can be given support by copying Microsoft's free GDI+ DLL into the AutoHotkey.exe folder (but in the case of a compiled script, copy the DLL into the script's folder). To download the DLL, search for the following phrase at www.microsoft.com: gdi redistributable. - Quoted from the AutoHotkey help file.

 :) Try ToggleNic!

It's just a quick hack, using Windows' own network folder, but it works! I'm testing Vista, and I couldn't get the menu selction to work properly, but in XP you could remove the ; before WinMenuSelectItem and add a ; before Send.

Remember to change the nic= and hotkey= lines to match your system!

Skrommel

;ToggleNic.ahk
; Use a hotkey to toggle your network cards' enabled state.
; Change the line nic= below to match the names of your network connections, separated by comma.
; Change the hotkey= below using !=Alt ^=Ctrl +=Shift or #=Win followed by any other key.
; For more advanced hotkeys, check the AutoHotkey help file.
