Does anyone have a copy? Gdrive is dead

-Rockets (September 08, 2017, 03:52 PM)

Copy of???  FileNote?  If so, a simple Google search turned this up:  http://www.softpedia...ement/FileNote.shtml

Choosing a mirror from the Download link seemed to work in my basic test.

How does user get completely out?

-nkormanik (September 05, 2017, 05:41 PM)

Right-click the tray icon and choose Exit.

Interestingly one can pause simply by clicking on the desktop.  And resume by clicking on the program being read, picking right up again.

-nkormanik (September 05, 2017, 05:41 PM)

It's not paused.  That is, it's still sending a PageDown keystroke to whatever app/window has focus.  That said, the script can be easily modified to only work when your FBReader app is focused.

« Last post by skwire on September 05, 2017, 06:40 PM »

Actually...now that I read the initial post more closely, the request is a bit different from the thread I mention.  I think the OP wants a program that will take two images (the folder image and the "custom" image) and then make a composite of them.  Is that correct, Stamimail?

Finished Programs / Re: IDEA: Shell extension to show total play time of media clips

« Last post by skwire on September 02, 2017, 09:39 PM »

Hi, Alloneword, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.

PlayTime uses the MediaInfo library to populate the list so, if MediaInfo doesn't return the data, it will be blank.  That said, I can try updating PlayTime to use the latest MediaInfo library to see if that fixes the issue.  If it doesn't fix the issue, you might try writing to the MediaInfo author.

You must be checking for duplicated entries also since there are multiple occurrences of JD and QQQ.

Yes, at the end of the list processing, I do an alpha sort and filter out duplicates.

@skwire: What regex did you use, (if you did)?

-4wd (August 28, 2017, 12:19 AM)

What ended up working the best was:

1. Loop through each line.
2. Crack each line on its spaces.
3. Evaluate each part with: [A-Z]+\b

It's not quite perfect, and I'm not sure it ever could be, but it seems to be close enough for the OP's work.

As you mentioned in your first post, this sort of thing is a bit inexact and might require a bit of manual cleanup.  However, please try the attached EXE as it should be pretty close to what you want.

Finished Programs / Re: FINISHED: Hourly chime software (like Cuckoo for Mac)

« Last post by skwire on August 14, 2017, 10:01 AM »

but it has the unfortunate side-effect of making the chime and voice sound every second for the minute it's set to run.

-orbis (August 14, 2017, 09:37 AM)

Ah, apologies for that.  I didn't look too closely at the source.   

Might there be a way round this?

-orbis (August 14, 2017, 09:37 AM)

To answer your question, yes, it'll take further code modifications to do what you want.  Unfortunately, I do not have time today to look at the source more closely (regular job getting in the way  ).  If Skrommel doesn't get to it first, I'll try to find time later this week.

« Last post by skwire on August 14, 2017, 08:52 AM »

Thanks. I'd certainly sacrifice some CPU for a bit more accuracy here.
Or is there a setting which users can change, perhaps?

-orbis (August 14, 2017, 06:10 AM)

The source code doesn't have this as a user-definable setting but, if you have AutoHotkey installed, and are using the .ahk file instead of the .exe, you can easily modify the source on line 189 to do what you want.

Code: Autohotkey [Select]

1. SetTimer,RUNNING,60000

The 60000 is 60000 milliseconds, or, 60 seconds.  If you want it checking every second, close the script, change the 60000 to 1000, and relaunch the script.  Make sense?

The only issue I've had so far is that the program only utilizes .wav files, which meant I couldn't use the audio file I had originally planned on using.

-Seed (August 13, 2017, 06:34 PM)

There are a myriad of audio file converter apps out there that easily convert just about any audio filetype to any other audio filetype.  There are also many website-based options, too.  Here's but one:  http://media.io/

Regretfully I haven't found the right one, although, one comes very close.

-dcwul62 (August 08, 2017, 01:19 AM)

Since it's extremely doubtful that you're going to find an app that does exactly what you want, consider using a small script that formats HashMyFiles' clipboard data.  Here's an AHK example:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]

1. myNewText  := ""
2.  
3. Loop, Parse, Clipboard, `n, `r
4. {
5.     If ( A_LoopField )
6.     {
7.         myArray := StrSplit( A_LoopField, A_Tab )
8.  
9.         myNewText .= "Filename: "      . myArray[ 1 ] . "`r`n"
10.                   .  "Filesize: "      . myArray[ 2 ] . "`r`n"
11.                   .  "Modified date: " . myArray[ 3 ] . "`r`n"
12.                   .  "Creation data: " . myArray[ 4 ] . "`r`n"
13.                   .  "MD5: "           . myArray[ 5 ] . "`r`n"
14.                   .  "SHA256: "        . myArray[ 6 ] . "`r`n`r`n"
15.     }
16. }
17.  
18. Clipboard := myNewText

I call these ClipEx (CLIPboard EXchanger) scripts and I use an extensive amount of them in my day-to-day routine.
