Post New Requests Here / Re: [IDEA] Notepad: Highlight all text after X number of characters/words
« Last post by publicdomain on April 17, 2021, 06:20 PM »
My idea for a Coding snack would be a simple notepad UI, where you specify 1) the number, 2) whether you’re counting words or characters, and 3) if characters include non-space or not. All text beyond that limit will be in red.
-vevola (February 26, 2021, 02:09 AM)

Hello @VeVoLa! Just wanted a bit of clarification on #3. Please elaborate!

P.S: the "Count spaces" functionality was deferred for second version... Should it be "Count non-spaces"?

P.P.S. initial version is launching without #3, so take it easy :) it's v0.1.0 --the whole v0.x branch is for this :)

So glad you liked it :)

Preferably in AHK so I can learn a little
-magician62 (March 23, 2021, 04:51 PM)

You may learn the Regular Expression language for .NET to expand the program's matching & launching: https://docs.microso...uage-quick-reference

No noticeable difference. Still counts number launched, but nothing appears.

Is there a way to tweak it so it just outputs what I have dragged and what it is proposing to do?
-magician62 (April 11, 2021, 04:20 PM)

There may be no need for such a "debug tweak" :)

Please retry with this fixed version (v0.1.1): https://github.com/p.../releases/tag/v0.1.1

Many thanks for your test & report :-*

User input is magical! It makes software work as it should  :Thmbsup:

I'd love to be able to select a group of files/folders, then right click and select the option 'Enfolder' and Windows creates a folder and places all of my selected files into that folder.

Hi there Jason, I'm in! :Thmbsup:

I'm finishing the releases in my signature + some others as I'm finally home & free from work. Stay tuned @ the repo.

You can use any sound file you want by placing it in the same folder & renaming it to "DonationTimer.wav" :)

(If there's no sound file it beeps)

Hi & thanks for your request! It's all possible via .exe :)

4) The .bat file makes a HTTP call via curl to my IoT-server

What's the target IoT server's IP? (to set as default address for your use case)

Thanks a lot.
Not needed for this time.
It was an incidental need and is solved.
-Contro (March 30, 2021, 04:25 AM)

No worries! Glad to see you've solved your use-case :Thmbsup:

(Still the original concept of "List and Print" in a straightforward tool looks useful to other users... --it may become a proggie some day).

BTW I second the encouragement to your creative ways for requesting what others may skip :) Keep it up!

Hola Contro! If you get stuck in your search, I can make you a quickie program just for this purpose :Thmbsup:

The quickest would be to simply generate an HTML or RTF file for you to print, if that suffices.

Thanks for everything you're doing! I know this is in beta and we're trying things out, I'm hoping the end product will have minimize to taskbar. Regardless, despite having to occasionally having to re-enable it, I love this little piece of software enough to consistently use it.
-SyRaza (March 26, 2021, 09:26 AM)

It's my pleasure to assist! :) New version (0.1.0) gets minimize to task bar & auto-start  :Thmbsup:

Hi there Nick!  :)

  • Is the browser still visible (i.e.on screen) when the error happens?
  • Does it happen when you have the "close browser" checkbox ticked?

We can debug this :Thmbsup:
