The Window-title doesn't show the actual directory selected in the browser on the left, as would be expected (by me at least :))

1. Cant change folder in the file browser and load a file from it as well.

@hamradio: Yes, I also use the amazingly useful CoLT, and I initially thought of it when I read about QuoteURLText, but they are not the same thing. QuoteURLText picks up the text and related metadata for pasting,

What type of metadata like full formatting and all or another as curious now if I should have the other as well?

403
Quote URL Text is like CoLT and CoLT can copy the selected text to clipboard as well. You can specify multiple formats for it as well instead of just one like Quote URL Text has at the moment.

Disclaimer: Not affiliated with CoLT just use it.

CoLT allows users to create custom formats to be used when copying a link location and its text. These custom formats also apply to copying the current page location and page title.

« Last post by hamradio on February 11, 2013, 12:13 PM »
Just released 2.1.0 build 1...

RECOMMENDED UPDATE:

1. Import in the chart builder now contains JASC-PAL and Gimp Palette.
2. Custom text color override for the chart text color in options menu.
3. Optimized some code which should result in faster loading of large chart files.

:)

Thank you, and I will be releasing an update soon as I put the polishing touches on it. :)

So by that information to me it appears he broke the "protocol" agreement that he signed...thoughts on that?

He did. Definitely in the wrong on that point. But as most of us (including we sysadmins) seem to be leaning, the school's response was way out of proportion to the offense that was committed. So much so that it doesn't make sense...

I can't help thinking there's still something more behind this incident than what is being acknowledged. I'm guessing this student got caught up in something else that was going on at Dawson (perhaps an ongoing investigation into an earlier or much more serious network breech?) and those behind it thought they had finally "got their man."

If so, some of the rabidness on the part of Dawson starts to make a bit more sense. As does their insinuation that there's more going on than they can publicly discuss. Which would certainly be the case if there was a police investigation currently in progress over something that had happened on Dawson's network.

Oh well...as time passes, more will come out. :o



The question though to me is what was in the "protocol" that he signed...like if it wasn't followed and such...like consequences.  So until that is posted in truth one has to assume that the "protocol" made him a "professional" and that it had a thing in it saying he could be expelled for not following them...
408
Quotes from the site...

October 24th

Hamed and his colleagues meet with François Paradis to test their theory of data access. A test server is setup for them to run their findings. They sign a Protocol for Portal Vulnerability Test. Part of said protocol stipulates that testing must happen on College grounds under the supervision of Dawson College IT staff.

and then in summary...

Hamed was eager to verify the updated security of Omnivox on October 26th and performed tests from his home.

So by that information to me it appears he broke the "protocol" agreement that he signed...thoughts on that?

Mouser wrote:
You will need to change SOMETHING about a text box before you see any fix -- so select it and toggle the inner color on and then off, or edit the text in some way, etc.
Meaning, use this technique in the new beta version?
It's nice to have some work around, but I'm assuming you will try to fix it (eventually) so the toggling / changing a text box isn't necessary?  Mainly because most won't know / remember to use the work around steps.

Tomos - I'm not sure either, what the sizes for fonts in SSC represent - or just a generic numeric value.  Definitely not pt. size.

Im not mouser, but what I think mouser is saying to do with the new version he put up is to see if its fixed by doing that on existing ones or you can see if its fixed just by creating a new one probably.

Today's gadget, an oven liner:

(see attachment in previous post)
http://www.amazon.co...-Liner/dp/B000GLNV8Q

What it does:
Sits at the bottom of your oven and anything that would normally drip onto the bottom of your oven drips onto it.  Can be easily removed and cleaned and reused.

  Or you can do as I do, line the bottom with aluminum foil.  When it gets overly dirty, just rip it out and put in some more...

Just a quick search...

Aluminum Foil vs Oven Liner

Don't use aluminum foil as oven liner
"The big name in foil — Reynolds — specifically advises against lining the bottom of ovens with foil."

Right now it uses cmd.exe to do its launching as was needed for what ConstanceJill was wanting.  I may make a option that can be toggled at some point that redirects it to a specified window as specified in the options as well that will find and send the text to a window instead of through cmd.exe.

Sorry for the delay myarmour, but I have gotten around to working on it a little tonight and I have got a global color value that saves it to the global prefs tonight and it can be toggled, but it remembers the last used setting.  It will be in the next version I upload  :)

Updated and removed the single instance for now as got sinus crud and never felt like programming much on it.  This will be the last release for NANY unless any other major bugs found.  Will work on it more after I get better and in the new year. :)

Hey there .o/

I've been using version 1.0.89 build 1 this week and I saw the window about being allowed to run only one instance.
However I didn't find an option in the GUI to choose whether or not to allow it.
Also, in my opinion, it would be better if possible, when only one instance is allowed, to make it so that, when trying to run another instance, the window of the existing instance would come up on top of other windows which may be hiding it, instead of displaying this warning window.

I love the resize helper, btw  :-*
And yes, the vertical scrollbar thing definitely seems fixed. Thanks again :Thmbsup:

1. Unless it is minimized the existing instance should come to the top of other windows after displaying that window through a windows api call.  I am also still fiddling with a easy way make it only one instance on demand.  I may comment it out till I can figure out the easiest way.

2. Glad you like the resize helper.
3. Good about vertical scrollbar.

:)
418
MINOR UPDATE

1. Hopefully fixed the vertical scrollbar from appearing after a minimize when it was not showing before minimization.
2. Hopefully fixed the DropDownWidth bug.
3. Added <var> that will allow you to specify it as many times as you want in both prefix and suffix. (If not specified then old method works of putting it in the middle of prefix+suffix.)
4. Added another button parameter to allow you to specify if the command window should stay open once command is done. (Useful for commands that need information reviewed.)
5. Added a resize helper that shows the outline of the buttons when resizing the form.
6. Added Move Left/Right One to the context menu of each button and separator.
7. Hopefully did not break anything, but let me know if I did and I will set about to fix it with a hotfix update.

Note: See first post for download url. :up:

As for showing the whitespaces in the textbox I am not sure it would be possible with a normal textbox.

He cool project!  :Thmbsup:

Can i blame you if my network admin ask me why i download crap?

Sorry, my first response is an bug notification...

Using 1.0.75.1, on W7-64, fresh un-packed,
clicking at the drop-down arrow of the Variable edit, i get

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException:
InvalidArgument=Value mit dem Wert 0 ist für DropDownWidth ungültig.

Once i have written an variable i can click at that button without an error.

2.)
I have to think myself about an space sign after the Command Prefix.

F.ex.
Variable: C:\temp\crap.txt
ComPrefix: notepad

Results in: notepadC:\temp\crap.txt


- - -

3.)
I had expected to have an parameter like <variable> to add this in my command line where i need it.
This had be more intuitive for me on my first test then just "automatically add the variable" to the command line.

- - -

4.)
Your tool calls comspec as default if no other executable is specified???
Can you please add an option check box like "[X] don not close command line window" and so call "comspec /K" ?


F.ex. i use
Variable: 127.0.0.1
ComPrefix: ping
Caption: Ping variable

- - -

5.)
Hmm, seeing now your "custom_testfile.xml" i get the idea: how about an option to save & load different settings.xml?
Perhaps even from command line: "crap.exe /s work.xml"

The name was the idea of ConstanceJill on the forums here who originally requested an app like this. So I just used it as I thought it was a good name for an application. :)

1) Let me know if its still there in the next version as I hope I have fixed that.

2) I don't think I should put a forced space in it therefore the user should.  (e.g. Some commands a user may want to use could be undesirable to have a space after the prefix which if I forced a space would mess it up. Therefore for the notepad example just enter notepad followed by a space for prefix, then you wont have to think about that anymore for that command as it will have the space by default.)

3) Not sure I understand what you mean. Maybe you could clarify or someone else could. But do you mean similar to the other macros? If so I implemented it for prefix and suffix, old way where it places it in the middle of prefix and suffix should still work too in case you don't want to specify it for some buttons.

4) Added to each button.

5) Yes that might show up in a later version.

Update still planned.  New version tomorrow or Friday sometime after noon my time. (Eastern Standard Time)

Hello there .o/

Hmm I think I found a minor interface issue in version 1.0.75 build 1 : if one opens the program window and sets it in any way where there is no vertical scrollbar, then reduces the application to taskbar by clicking its button, and restores the window by clicking the taskbar button again, then a vertical scrollbar appears.

Thanks for the report and yep I found that the other day myself and just forgot to update the first post saying it was known and hopefully fixed the next time I upload. :)  I have also implemented resize helper by showing a button border when you are resizing the form and hiding it when resizing is ended so you know where to stop if you want a good looking form. On that note look for a new version sometime between now and Friday.

Viewers of the accompanying video might initially wonder why the person doesn't just give the cockatoo its nuts, rather than make the poor bird work painstakingly for its meal. But what's astonishing is that the bird, a captive-bred Goffin's cockatoo named Figaro, possesses the skills to craft a tool, and use it to achieve its objective.

Hope you had a good vacation and I did a update to have the variable and favorites on one line by default, but you can take it back to two lines if preferred over the one line style in the preferences. :) As always let me know if you see any glaring bugs that I missed.

I have switched from a ToolStrip with a flow layout to a FlowLayoutPanel with buttons.  The reason being is I noticed the ToolStrip was not adding a scrollbar if buttons overflowed, the flowlayoutpanel adds a scrollbar if it does.  Please back up the button data before trying it, but it should still look pretty much the same and act the same.  I have also added a copy button context menu item and menu item in the button editor that will allow you to copy the data from a button for adding a new button in case some stuff is just minor changes to the command.  I have also added the option to enable/disable balloon tooltips for the buttons instead of the rectangular style. Also, some of the menu items have moved into a sub menu to keep the items menu cleaner. Finally, I have rewrote some of the code to make it a little leaner and cleaner, so please test to see if it still works as it should for you.

:)

Should be fixed sorry about that had to go do a few things away from computer.  Try now should be fixed.  :)
