N.A.N.Y. 2012 / Re: NANY 2012 Early Beta: Portable Extension Warlock
« Last post by hamradio on September 08, 2011, 03:00 AM »
Cannot get DropZone to work.

PortableExtensionWarlock.exe works fine - added Notepad++
Launched DropZone - created the icon on my desktop
dragged a txt file on it - got the error message that "Could not be found" - does not say what could not be found

Windows XP SP3 , .Net4

Sounds like it is having trouble finding the application at the path you entered that will handle the txt file.  You can download it again the version hasn't changed but I uploaded one that changed the area I think it is to tell you what couldn't be found.  So you might try that and report back.

Description
Build a launch file to launch files of certain types in certain applications skipping the system file associations.  You should be able to use this as well on portable devices as long as the computer you intend to use it on has .NET 4.0. by using the DropZone that is included.

Features
Portable enabled.
Shows an open with menu when it detects you have more than one type of an extension in the launch file configuration.
You can also create application listings with specific command line arguments to do certain things for you when launching the file.

Screenshots

The launch file editor...

The DropZone with the built-in form skin.

The launcher when it has detected that you have multiple file extensions of the same type in the launch file configuration.

Usage

Installation
Extract to an application folder outside of the normal program files folder making sure to extract it with folder structure intact.

Using the Application
To act as a launcher for file types you specify from the launch file editor.  For non flash drive you can add a shortcut in the SendTo folder of your system that points to the launcher. Then when you right click a file goto the Send To menu and select the shortcut to launch with the launcher.  This also has the added benefit of not having to change file associations on the system.  Currently to use from your flash drive or portable hard drive you would need to use the DropZone with the launcher and launch configuration file in the folder that the DropZone is.

DropZone Skins
Any png file with alpha transparency placed into the skins folder.

ac_arguments.dat
Feel free to edit that file in your favorite text editor for argument auto complete to show up when adding and/or editing an application.  Note: One set of arguments per line.

Help File
Please note that the help file is not done.

Uninstallation
Just delete the application folder.

Known Issues
Currently do not know of any.

I don't write to outside portions (non application folder) to keep the settings from being wrote in other computers directories when you use it from a USB device.  The simple solution is to basically extract programs that don't have installers to a user created folder named My Programs or similar and put extractable applications there for applications that might write to the app folder instead of the users folder.  Guess I should attempt to catch it and make a warning of it though, so thanks for bringing it up.  :Thmbsup:

You can also use URL Alias as well.  You can setup multiple data entries with it by changing %s to %1 %2 and so on wherever you need it. :Thmbsup:

Should $notes=trim($notes) be $note=trim($note);?

Living Room / Re: Firefox fixes the version number problem
« Last post by hamradio on August 16, 2011, 12:42 PM »
Just gives me another reason to add to my list of when to look elsewhere for my browser needs. Mozilla has almost made the list full...and when it becomes full...bad things will happen to the Firefox on my computer...(as in removal and never looking back). I for one don't think browser updates should be forced down your throat with automatic updates and having a version number in the about box is standard procedure...if they are going to remove it then they should just rename the stupid about box name to Check for Update as that will be all it is going to mainly be in the box afterwards.

Bottom line: If my firefox automatically updated today I would not be able to use Stylish at the time of this writing cause the version number is not set to go with the newly released 6. It is one of the many reasons I don't like it to update automatically.

And what about the current scores already there? Is my 2nd place one going to get removed since it was an older version potentially taking me out of -> "The top-three high-scoring DC members will receive an additional prize from the site." as you posted on the first post?

RECOMMENDED UPDATE:

1. Made the color chart double buffered which should help decrease loading time for color charts (even more with large ones).
2. Improved the load settings function.
3. A few bugs hopefully fixed.

First post for download link or download through the link in the check for updates screen.

Only concern I got is how are you going to keep people from using a .net disassembler to see the password?

General Software Discussion / Re: A sneaky new attack on privacy
« Last post by hamradio on May 05, 2011, 10:44 PM »
After reading it myself they seem to talk out of both sides of their mouth...for instance...


"WHO IS COLLECTING YOUR INFORMATION: Appsbar and its affiliates are the sole owners of the information collected; except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy or otherwise communicated to you at the time you provide the information, we will not sell, share, rent or loan this information to any third party."


then in under...
"
WHAT IS COLLECTED, AND HOW DO WE USE IT:
...
Appsbar may sell, rent, lease, share or exchange your Personally Identifiable Information with any third party; and
..."

So it sounds like the bottom line is...they can and will share it and you shouldn't listen to the first part I mentioned.

Sounds like they made it confusing to read which is a big thumbs down. :down:
