Post New Requests Here / Re: NetTraffic xml export to Excel
« Last post by Ath on February 13, 2019, 01:44 PM »
Thanks for sharing. And I'm happy my educated guess about the ts field was quite close :-[

Can you attach an original xml file to a reply? Scraping it from your messages doesn't provide the original structure, you seem to have taken clips from a webbrowser (the dashes in front of the <Stat elements give it away ;)) (Finally downloaded NetTraffic and did a testrun 8))

Use sed, the Stream EDitor, known from Linux, but also available for Windows. And here is a SO answer with details

I would like to loop the {DOWN} x 10
-slc7 (May 13, 2018, 06:00 AM)
You could run my tool WinSendKeys, that is created in, and supports, the AutoIt3 syntax, like {DOWN 10} to repeat the {DOWN} keystroke 10 times (might need surrounding quotes when used on a command-line). It also has options to direct the keystrokes to a specific window or application, read keystrokes from a (script)file, execute mouse clicks and moves, and a whole plethora of related stuff.
Haven't tried myself to start it from LBC, as I'm not an LBC user, but it is designed for tasks like that.

Ejem. What do you think about this ?

Real or imaginary ?

-Contro (February 09, 2019, 04:31 AM)
It's real, but not suitable as main storage.
And how long you'll have a device that will support micro-USB? My current phone has (and most newer phones will have) USB-C connector...

Well, I tried a couple of possibilities, and the closes guess I have is that 'ts' is related to 1/1/0000, in seconds, but with a factor 100 off. Guess that's close enough for determining the data.
ul and dl are quite self explanatory (million bytes).

Best advice would probably be to contact the developer and ask for documentation.

Excel can open an xml file just fine as a worksheet:
  • Start Excel (2007 or later I'd advise)
  • Use File-Open to fetch the xml file
  • Choose either the 1st 'As an XML table' or 2nd 'As a readonly workbook' option when prompted
    • The 1st option will induce a message about a missing schema, just continue with OK
    • The 2nd option will include some of the metadata as column headers, it can be removed if desired
  • Process & massage the data as required/desired

A few developer tools come to mind:
- Compare It! by Grigsoft (shareware, my personal favorite)
- Beyond Compare by Scooter Software (shareware)
- WinMerge (OSS)

They may need some configuration/settings to act as described.

base10 to base64 or reverse
-BGM (January 22, 2019, 10:34 AM)
I've never seen a practical use of that, AFAIR :huh:

Base64 encoding of content is often used to transfer binary data in text-form, avoiding unexpected mangling by intermediate processing. And it was required for e-mail transport, as (older) Russian servers passing through the mail around their part of the i-net were only 7 bits, so if content contained 8 bit data it would come across mangled...

hope you don't mind waiting
-BGM (January 22, 2019, 10:34 AM)
That's no problem, I prefer my tools to work perfectly, so if all it takes is a little (more) time, that's fine with me :Thmbsup:

Well, I updated to 1.2 and tried the Base64 conversion, but when using the keyboard to select the option, either with or without shift, it gives an error "Error! Only alphanumeric Symbols will be accepted!", but that's a bit weird, as it should accept any string of text instead of numerical data (dec ?) to convert to Base64, and a valid sequence of base64 text to convert back to a string.
When selecting the option using the mouse I get an error:
"Missing Parameter!

Use: baseConvert("Value", "From", "To")

Example:
baseConvert("55", "dec", "hex")
"
(Stripped some unneeded text away)

I think you have the Base64 conversion not working in the expected way Base64w
And selecting options using the keyboard seems to behave a bit strange too

Example:
Original text: This is a test 1, 2, 3
Base64 encoded: VGhpcyBpcyBhIHRlc3QgMSwgMiwgMw==
(with padding)

Android Apps / Re: android app keyboard
« Last post by Ath on January 18, 2019, 06:42 AM »
Depends on what you want to type, for my tablet I use Hackers Keyboard by Esc (Play store link), that has cursor keys to facilitate (somewhat) easier text selection using shift/control + cursor keys.

AFAIK, that's not possible/happening. When closing a 'Window', the app is actually terminated, on Android.

Non-Windows Software / Re: Android 6.0 tablet recent windows close all?
« Last post by Ath on January 16, 2019, 01:13 AM »
On older Android versions I used to use Advanced Task Killer (by Rechild, couldn't find it in the Play Store anymore) to kill off unused programs, but I started it manually only, as I didn't want it to kill apps 'under my fingers'. I think I stopped using that around Android 5 or 6, but it should still work on those versions. AFAICS, killing an app is the only way to close it's (remaining) views.

TMK that close-all feature first appeared on Samsung devices, and later also on other brands (nothing to compare with though), but only recently was added to stock Android.
Sometimes it requires to 'shift the list aside' to reveal the Close all feature, have you tried that?

Start at pos 1 of the string take 3 characters and hold them, shift 1 position and do the same, until the end.
Do the same for the second string.
See how many trig's are the same among the strings and calculate the percentage to the total number of trig's of string 1.
-Uit_VerKoop3 (January 07, 2019, 03:22 AM)
I'm not quite sure, nor an expert on the subject, but isn't this the 'F23 Jaccard index' calculation from StringSimilarity? You'd have to multiply by 100 to get a percentage, if you need that, I kept all results except Damerau-Levenshtein (number of edits) in the 0..1 range. The documentation for the F23 library and an excerpt of its algorithms can be found here
