N.A.N.Y. 2010 / Re: NANY 2010 Release: Anuran

Thanks, froggy, and thanks to everybody for shaping Anuran into what it is today.  =]

In support of my comment above, I do realise that that limitation will limit Boot Snooze's functionality for some.

Does the script work if you have set a password? If not, maybe you should prompt the user for their password and then temporarily activate the autologin, removing it after reboot. Then again you probably thought of this already, because I've yet to test this out...  :P

Thanks for the feedback but, no, it does not.  Also, for security reasons, I won't code around this.

My idea was
Creating a "hibernation point" which allows your PC to start from previous state every single time.
Rather than, restarts then enters hibernation mode (anyway, the pros is easier to archive) .

Maybe you can explore into it...

Nice idea, but well beyond my skills.

Well, you had mentioned tracking multiple projects so it seemed a pretty logical jump to being able to save/load separate files per project.  It's not hard to implement...I'll finish it up tomorrow.

Can I have a separate Bestimate file for each of many projects?
If projects are sequential there's no problem, I can simply delete unwanted items and start again. However, if projects run in parallel and each has many steps...

Any thoughts as to why my system doesn't hibernate / standby from Boot Snooze, when it will do both when manually triggered from the Turn Off Computer menu?  Anything I can do to help you test?

I really have no idea, Ampa.  :(  It works fine on my computer, my wife's and mouser's secondary PC.  I believe it works for Tomos, too.

Maybe a bug under Tools\Options\Audio notification on new track\Enable--TTS $title as token
On playing new song it gives the last song played.

Thank you, nogojoe.  =]

v1.0.4 build 1 - 2010-02-04
    * Revamped Trout's upper GUI.  (Thanks, Lesmo16)
        1) Larger, multi-line title text area.  Right-clicking on this area will allow you to copy the text to your clipboard.
        2) Larger album art.
        3) Volume control moved horizontally under the control buttons.
    + Under Tools, Options, String formatting tab, you can now preview any and all formatting changes easily.


Hopefully, I didn't break anything.  =]  However, if I did, you can download the older version here:

Here's how the new changes turned out.

any chance of a totals row at the foot of the window, in order to sum each column?
-cranioscopical (February 03, 2010, 01:56 PM)

Sure...but did you mean just the Actual Value, Predicted Value and Accuracy columns?  Otherwise, I'm not sure how you'd like the other columns totaled, guv.  =]

thegipper, if you're not having any luck with the recovery software you've tried, I can highly recommend FileScavenger found here: http://www.quetek.com/products.htm  It was able to recover a drive for me when all the other apps I tried couldn't even read the disk.  I can definitely count it as some of the best $50 I've ever spent.

Also, it might be resolved by means of "powercfg -h on" command execution in the "Boot Snooze" - just for user convinience.

Ah, very nice.  Thanks for the heads up.

For instance, when I leave home in the morning, I put my XP desktop in hibernation, it wakes up just before I get home.  This morning, I had a huge download to perform, and had either to stop it and hibernate OR to leave it running.  With BootSnooze, I could have asked for a reboot/hibernate in 3 hours time, then, when coming home, my PC would just resume from hibernation and the download would have been complete.

Ah, I gotcha.  Sure, I'll add it in.   :)

Does that fix the button issue?

Still missing the words Hibernate and Standby with the newest build.

Okay, I'll make the buttons wider in the next build.

Also: my system shuts down, reboots, the Hibernate warning appears, but no Hibernation occurs.
I have been impatient and clicked the Hibernate now button, so don't know whether Hibernation happens at the end of 10 mins.
I have not tested Standby.

For hibernation to work, your computer must have "Enable hibernation" already checked under your Control Panel, Power Options, Hibernate tab.  Is this enabled?  If so, which OS are you using?

Sure, it's possible.  Could you give me a scenario where this would be necessary, though?  What I mean is...this app is meant to be used when you're done with everything and ready to reboot.
