If you have a cell phone with [free] long-distance, you can do what I do when I need to send a fax. I simply forward my cell phone to the fax number and then fax to my cell phone number (which is a local call but forwarded on to the fax number). It works a treat for me on the rare occasion I need to send a fax since I don't keep long-distance on my house's landline.-skwire (July 08, 2010, 02:22 AM)
Sorry, I should have clarified that I do this from a printer/scanner/fax combo (Canon Pixma MP830). Though, I can't see why it couldn't be done from a modem in a computer along with some fax software.-skwire (July 08, 2010, 08:35 AM)
Ah. I took the OP though to mean a way to convert files to fax without using the modem or connecting telephone lines. That was what I thought you were doing and I was curious how that was accomplished. Thanks for the clarification.-steeladept (July 08, 2010, 08:59 AM)
Stoic Joker: you should just this suitHm... Nope, can't do it. That requires that I actually buy one of the silly things (Ick!) before I can join in.-Eóin (July 14, 2010, 11:23 AM)
- We should sue!wait, wait, wait...
Nobody said to register a quirky domain name with them. (that would be really stupid)
I was suggesting in case of the kind of temporary emergency that is being suggested in this thread, if the standard 13 root servers were shut down, use the alternative ones to CONNECT. They have a copy of every record the standard ones have and they will help you reach all the .com, .net, .org, .edu, etc. until the standard root servers come back online. (ok, it's not perfect, but it's better than nothing at all, don't you think?)-app103 (July 04, 2010, 06:26 PM)
Remember however that it's not just the DNS servers. It's the backbone routers as well.Quite true.
If you have no packet routes, it doesn't much matter what you're pointing to.

Hello all
Just recently found T-Clock after years of using Dale Nurden's program.
I'm glad to see this effort going on as I had always hoped there would be enhancements made.
I use the functionality every day at both home and work.-MKappy (July 02, 2010, 01:27 PM)
I'd like to offer some enhancement ideas that may or may not have already been suggested.
1 Allow what is displayed when the mouse hovers over the date/time in the system tray to be user selectable.
What I personally would select for example is to display the current months calendar.
This allows you to quickly see the month without using up one of your mouse click options
2 Add right click capability to match the left click.
Note: Middle button on Win 7 Pro brings up "document flip" so we really only have 2 copies not 4 available.
My motivation for this is to give us at least one if not two additional copy strings.
Example use case:
--- Left Single Click - copy the current date time as a Prefix - e.g. yyyy-mm-dd_
--- Left Double Click - copy the current date time as a Suffix - e.g. _yyyy-mm-dd_hh"hrs"_mm"mins"
--- Right Single Click - copy in a user defined string - e.g. an email address, [email protected]
--- Right Double Click - copy in a user defined string - e.g. an email address, [email protected]
3 Auto Rename file for file drag and drop?
This might be possible now but it's beyond my knowledge of how one would set this up.
The idea here would be to rename a dropped file to have a predefined user date/time string appended as a prefix or suffix before the file extension.
This might be the same as the single click option for example or perhaps yet another string specifically for this purpose.
For example:
Original file name: Draft_ideas.doc
Suffix Drag drop results in: Draft_ideas_2010-07-02_02hrs_07mins.doc
Prefix Drag drop results in: 2010-07-02_Draft_ideas.doc
4 Drag and drop the clock ?I'm not sure we really need that many roads-to-Rome ... But, I may explore that later.
I've got no idea if this is even remotely possible....
What if you click down on the date/time in the system tray and drag and drop it?
Could this be made to paste a string?
I hope to one day get modern coding skills back up to date and join you all as contributing developers.
Thanks again for your efforts

Design is often a natural talent for creative people, and can be taught for those it isn't, but how do you teach creativity?-steeladept (June 21, 2010, 09:00 AM)
However, under this approach, the FCC claims it will exercise “forbearance,” a regulatory doctrine whereby the government promises not use its regulatory authority in most cases.Well, there goes the neighborhood - The internet will completely turn to shit in 5... 4... 3... 2...-Cpilot (June 20, 2010, 11:12 AM)
Um... When I change the DPI setting it only asks to logoff and then back on to enable the change (which I do). But are you saying that after a reboot the behavior changes again? Or are you just rebooting instead of logging off/on to be sure it takes? IIRC my results don't change either way as I had to reboot the VPC a few times during the tests for other reasons - and - I just can not get the thing to fail.I have Win 7 x64 installed, I downloaded the version at the top of the thread, the x64 version , changed Windows to use hideous 144dpi, and T-Clock looks fine to me whether Windows XP scaling is checked or unchecked (was prompted to log off each time). Is there something I should look for?-daddydave (June 16, 2010, 01:06 PM)
Yes - I get the same untill I reboot.-sagji (June 18, 2010, 10:58 AM)
Crap, you're right - I misquoted the dialog.I did try toggling Use XP DPI scaling in the program's shortcut, but it had no effect. Now as to which one can effectivly override the other goes ... I've not a clue.Strange I don't get that setting - the closes I have is "Disable display scaling on high DPI systems" in the settings section of Compatibility tab, and everything in that section is disabled.-Stoic Joker (June 16, 2010, 12:22 PM)-sagji (June 18, 2010, 10:58 AM)
