Autohotkey's StringReplace command could also come in handy.. here is something right off the help file:

;If clipboard contains - or *, remove them..
StringReplace, clipboard, clipboard, -, , All
StringReplace, clipboard, clipboard, *, , All
MsgBox %clipboard%

FARR Plugins and Aliases / Locate32 Plugin for FARR by Okke

« Last post by lanux128 on September 25, 2007, 07:18 PM »

Okke, just a small suggestion for this cool plugin.. why not use the default location for Locate? i think it should be: C:\Program Files\Locate\locate.exe, this way new users won't be confused as why it's not working..

Junglerooster, what type of CPU is yours? maybe the motherboard needs some new drivers to adjust to the cpu.. just my 2¢.

i didn't notice FDM in the 2nd option earlier.. but FDM does support downloads from rapidshare, youtube, etc.. but i'm not sure how because i haven't had the need so far..

i'm not sure whether it's the same but discussions about tray utilities are quite popular here at DC. maybe in one of them, there could have been a mention of a viable freeware alternative to "PS Tray"..

-nosh (September 24, 2007, 03:25 AM)

don't worry about it, nosh.. i too have heavily customised my settings to even begin to move to another file-manager. and each time, i tried a new one, i'd start comparing with Salamander.. that is a normal reaction, i think..

General Software Discussion / Axis inverting or rotating mouse filter driver by MAF-Soft

« Last post by lanux128 on September 23, 2007, 11:48 PM »

found this via TinyApps.Org, a shareware tool to rotate/invert mouse movements either by X/Y axis or degrees (90, 180, 270, etc). the author, Moritz Franckenstein, has made available a trial version which deactivates after some time.. more info available here (in English) even though the homepage is in German..

General Software Discussion / Any MWSnap users out there?

« Last post by lanux128 on September 23, 2007, 11:30 PM »

recently, shellcity.net posted about MWSnap, a "small yet powerful Windows program for snapping (capturing) images from selected parts of the screen". so, i went to the web-site to check out its features but i was surprised to say the least because the program's last update was in July 2002. therefore, i'm wondering if there are MWSnap users here and would like their input on the program's capabilities and reasons to stick with it..

after upgrading to Win9x, the first thing i did was to look for a LFN-compatible NC-clone.. there was a version 5.5 with LFN support for NC but it didn't much justice to the old NC and Altap picked up the mantle.. i don't actually remember FMStepUp but Salamander was freeware then so that did the trick for me..

Post New Requests Here / Re: change cursor appearance

« Last post by lanux128 on September 23, 2007, 09:44 PM »

AHK only allows changing the current cursor into another cursor form, i'm not sure if another image/character can be used instead..

A_Cursor

The type of mouse cursor currently being displayed. It will be one of the following words: AppStarting, Arrow, Cross, Help, IBeam, Icon, No, Size, SizeAll, SizeNESW, SizeNS, SizeNWSE, SizeWE, UpArrow, Wait, Unknown. The acronyms used with the size-type cursors are compass directions, e.g. NESW = NorthEast+SouthWest. The hand-shaped cursors (pointing and grabbing) are classfied as Unknown.

also, another similar request here in the AHK forums has not received much response suggesting a lack of options within AHK but i'd like to proved wrong, though..

Darwin, there is no tree-view display in the current version.. but this has been requested several times in the Altap forums and the devs are planning to include the feature in the coming versions, according to the "road-map"..

P.S. a work-around: use Shift+F3 to open the current active folder in Windows Explorer.

this is great! thanks a lot, Okke. this is a major leap for Farr in term of functionality..

and also to Armando: thanks, that's what i did in the end.. i added another alias with a space after the ^loc so that i can use the keywords independently..

As for the lizard, I'm holding on tight. He's not going anywhere!

-nosh (September 23, 2007, 06:05 PM)

ah, a fellow salamander user! good post, nosh.. i hope you had added your Salamander vote in the on-going file-manager poll..

i was like you earlier, trying out other file managers to see what i was missing but always went back to Salamander. i think it's a legacy preference because i too was enamoured with NC in the old DOS days and since then the dual-pane concept refuses to go away.

btw, now that Altap Salamander 2.5 final has been released (after countless betas), what do you make of it?
