Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA: DropButton
« Last post by skrommel on January 22, 2007, 11:21 AM »
 :) Here's DrOpen, an AHK script I think does what you ask!
To run, save as DrOpen.ahk and install AutoHotkey.

[Select]
;DrOpen.ahk
; Drop files on a window to open the files in an associated program.
; Syntax: DrOpen "<command>"
; Example: DrOpen "c:\windows\notepad.exe"

 :) Try DimSaver v2.1!

- 2007.01.22 - v2.1: Added option to ignore accidental mouse movement.

There's also some rearrangement in the settings dialog, with a new option to set the time to ignore mouse movement.

To compile it, download AutoHotkey.

[Select]
;FolderLimit.ahk

;Skrommel @2007

folder=C:\Test   ;Folder to count and recurse

#NoEnv

Loop

Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA Text file of Folder contents
« Last post by skrommel on January 20, 2007, 08:56 PM »
 :) Here's a combined command line and drag and drop tool.

Drag a dir on it to have it create a Files.txt of the filenames of the dropped dir in the dropped dir.
Or run it like a regular command line tool with paramaters.

To compile it to an exe, download AutoHotkey.

Skrommel


[Select]
;Dir2Txt.ahk
;  Text file of folder contents
;  Syntax: Dir2Text "<sourcefiles>" "<targetfile>" <includefolders?> <recurse?> <fullpath?> <append?> "<ignore>"
;  Example:      Dir2Txt.ahk "c:\test\*.*" "c:\test.txt" 0 0 0 0 "exe,com,bat"
;    Read filenames in c:\test\ into c:\test.txt ignoring exe, com and bat files
;  Example:      Dir2Txt.ahk "c:\test\*.*" "c:\test.txt" 1 1 1 1 "exe,com,bat"
;    Read full path of all files in the directory tree c:\test\ into c:\test.txt ignoring exe, com and bat files
;Skrommel @2007


If 0>1
{
  sourcefiles=%1%
  targetfile=%2%
  recurse=%3%
  includefolders=%4%
  fullpath=%5%
  append=%6%
  ignore=%7%
}
Else
{
  sourcefiles=%1%\*.*
  SplitPath,sourcefiles,name,dir,ext,name_no_ext,drive
  targetfile=%dir%\Files.txt
  recurse=0
  includefolders=0
  fullpath=0
  append=0
  ignore=
}

If append<>1
  FileDelete,%targetfile%
files=
Loop,%sourcefiles%,%includfolders%,%recurse%
{
  If A_LoopFileExt Not In %ignore%
  If fullpath<>1
    files=%files%%A_LoopFileName%`n

Try lowering the idleduration=30 or =1 to test it, and see if that makes a difference.

why do you use the loop thing

I missed that information in the excitement, f0dder! So you've been reading the AHK manual, have you?

The code isn't mine, I pretty much borrow everyone else's work.

I've posted your findings on the AHK forum. Maybe you should post your final GetCpuLoad code there?

Post New Requests Here / Re: Can DimSaver become DimScreen?
« Last post by skrommel on January 15, 2007, 06:41 PM »
 :) I can make DimScreen keep more always on top windows under wraps, but they tend to flash instead of just showing through, so I chose this solution.

I guess I could cut holes above purple squares to make it work with videos, too, but I think a "change the monitor brightness" is a better solution to the whole problem.

Post New Requests Here / Re: Can DimSaver become DimScreen?
« Last post by skrommel on January 15, 2007, 05:24 PM »
 :) Try this one.

DimScreen - Dim the whole screen.

Features:
- Change the brightness by selecting a % in the tray menu.
- Doesn't work properly with video windows.



You'll find the downloads and more info at 1 Hour Software by Skrommel.

It's far from perfect, slowing things down, and things are popping through, but it could work for example in night time navigation apps.

 :) Actually, it should be no problem making this, if you can identify the window. Try using AutoHotkeys spy tool and see if it can get the name and class of the window it's over. If so, I can get the image, turn it greyscale, and paint it back.
