Maybe you remember this thread http://www.donationcoder....m/index.php?topic=24936.0.

Sure, I remember. 

Both your tools need to be present in the subdirectory with the mp3 files.

-TomD101 (March 29, 2011, 04:16 PM)

[...]

I have TAR and the other program stored in d:\MP3. I need it in every subdir.

-TomD101 (March 29, 2011, 04:16 PM)

Correct me if I'm wrong but are you copying the TAR.exe file into every folder that you have MP3s in?  If so, why?!

Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA to avoid double typing

« Last post by skwire on March 29, 2011, 05:32 AM »

Though I think you'll find using software to solve this more cumbersome than getting a different keyboard, here's a way using AutoHoktey.  Just play with the timeout value of the second Input call (T0.08) until it's how you want.  The value is in seconds.

Code: Autohotkey [Select]

1. Loop,
2. {
3.     Input, foo, L1 V I,
4.     If ( ErrorLevel = "MAX" )
5.     {
6.         Input, bar, T0.08
7.     }
8. }

Skwire, thanks for your excellent program, I can see many uses.

-timn (March 28, 2011, 03:00 PM)

You're welcome and welcome to DonationCoder.  

I have some suggestions that would make it even more useful for me.
1. Don't clear the filter match field when you turn off filter mode - I often want to use it again.
2. A method to import a CSV file, use its first line as header names and delete that row in one operation.
3. More filter types like "doesn't equal", "doesn't contain", "greater than", "less than", regular expression match.

-timn (March 28, 2011, 03:00 PM)

• Can do.  Added to the ToDo list.
• I understand the reasoning behind this.  However, this would sort of break the mass import you can do by dropping a bunch of CSV onto the list (or multi-selecting them via the file choose dialog).  Did you see the Edit/Context menu option to convert a row to the header?  Maybe a solution/option would be if there was only one file dropped (or selected via the dialog), auto convert the first line into a header.
• I'll add these to the ToDo list as well.

Thanks for the feedback.

That would be cool!  Would it just keep track of the history, like the last 10 items?  Either way, it sounds like a gret idea.

-superboyac (March 28, 2011, 01:12 PM)

I could make it like that or make it so you can add/edit the entries manually.  That way, favourites don't get cycled out.

If you want, I can make it so the prefix and suffix fields are combo boxes.  That way, you could save your favourites of each.

Skwire Empire / Re: SFV Ninja (Simple File Verification application)

« Last post by skwire on March 28, 2011, 12:14 PM »

I just tested out the latest FlashSFV and, unless I'm mistaken (entirely possible), here are some of my findings:

• It can't handle Unicode paths.
• It can only create an SFV file out of files from one folder.
• It does not save the SFV with relative paths.  In other words, if you save the created SFV into another folder other than the one with the checksummed files, it won't work anymore.

The above items are important to me so SFV Ninja does all three.  It handles Unicode paths just fine and writes its SFV files out in UTF-8 format.  You can also build an SFV file out of files that come from any number of folders.  The resulting SFV file is then saved with paths relative to the save folder of the SFV file.  Furthermore, I tested out SFV Ninja on a 4GB VM hard drive file and it worked just fine.  Give it a shot, you may like it.

does it have decent progress bars?
Does speed rock?
Does it handle >2GB files?
Does it support the MD5 SFV extensions?

-f0dder (March 28, 2011, 11:08 AM)

• The progress bar is less than desirable by your standards, I'd say.
• Speed should be fine.  It is for me, anyway.
• I've tested with 1GB sized files.  Now tested successfully with 4GB sized files.
• No, only standard CRC32 SFV files.  Now supports SFV, MD5 & SHA-1 checksum files.

One of the main reasons I wrote this five years ago was that I wanted to be able to easily scan through a directory, load all the SFV files found and batch check them.  Nothing I could find back then really suited my purposes.

Wonderful!  I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but you do know that you can insert tabs in the prefix or suffix using the \t token, right?  Anything else you want added to this?

Ah, you want the text with all the markup and links and such, eh?  If so, you will probably need to spring for Surfulator or maybe you could get by with the Scrapbook extension.

skwire - How did you insert that cool scrolling text box on the forum?  I tried to figure out how to do that, and just used a table to set my example apart. 

-Nater (March 27, 2011, 11:38 PM)

I used the AHK code highlighter.  It's available from the Code Highlighting drop-down list when writing a post/reply.

My snippet should work with any flavour of AHK.  All you should need to do is copy out the snippet to a <something>.ahk file, edit the hotkey if you want, save and run then run the .AHK file.

Skwire Empire / Release: SFV Ninja (Simple File Verification application)

« Last post by skwire on March 27, 2011, 03:41 PM »

Name	SFV Ninja (Simple File Verification application)
Short Description	SFV (Simple File Verification) application.  It also supports MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 checksum files.  I wrote this several years ago for my own use but cleaned up the code for a public release.
Features	Two verifcation modes.  The first will verify all files in the list like any typical SFV application.  The second mode will only verify any newly added files.  This second mode allows you to "update" an existing SFV file without having to verify all of the files. Recursively scan a folder for SFV/MD5/SHA-1/SHA-256 files and load them all at once. Uses relative paths whenever possible when generating checksum files.
Supported OSes	Windows 7.  Probably works, but not tested, on Windows XP/Vista/8/10
Website	http://skwire.dcmembers.com/fp/?page=sfv-ninja
Download Link	Download

When your computer goes into idle, do you just lock the desktop (similar to the Win-L hotkey)?  Or, are you suspending/hibernating it?  Also, how are you dismissing the popup?  Escape key?  Click on the X button?

Yep, and that's exactly why I mentioned it.  The clipboard is a fickle beast and working with it can be a right pain in the arse.  I'm glad you got it working.

Are you familiar with AutoHotkey?  If so, here's a way to do it with AutoHotkey that seems to work pretty well.  It uses F2 as a hotkey which will only be active if a Firefox or Chrome window is active.  You can change the hotkey to whatever you like.  Also, you may have to play around with the sleep values a bit if it doesn't work right for you immediately.

Code: Autohotkey [Select]

1. ; Allow partial titlebar text matches.
2. SetTitleMatchMode, 2
3.  
4. ; Create a window title group to match on for our hotkey.
5. GroupAdd, myBrowsers, Mozilla Firefox
6. GroupAdd, myBrowsers, Google Chrome
7.  
8.  
9. #IfWinActive, ahk_group myBrowsers
10. {
11.     F2::
12.     {
13.         ; Copy user selection to a variable.
14.         SendInput, ^c
15.         myText := Clipboard
16.         Sleep, 100
17.        
18.         ; Switch to address bar in browser and copy URL to another variable.
19.         SendInput, ^l
20.         Sleep, 100
21.         SendInput, ^c
22.         Sleep, 100
23.         myURL := Clipboard
24.         Sleep, 100
25.    
26.         ; Format data bits.    
27.         myData := myURL . "`r`n`r`n" . myText
28.         Sleep, 100
29.            
30.         ; Put formatted data back onto clipboard.
31.         Clipboard := myData
32.     }
33.     Return
34. }
35. #IfWinActive

Skwire Empire / Re: Birthdays (simple birthday tracking app)

« Last post by skwire on March 25, 2011, 12:10 AM »

I serve the public and the public hath spoken!  The age column stays. 

As for your issue, nogojoe, I haven't seen that happen.  The columns get resized when the app first displays, when a birthday is added, and when you resize the app.  If you lose a column again, try resizing the app slightly to see if that brings them back in line.
