Great, more code project spam.You're not very fond of the code project?-Nighted (December 29, 2007, 07:11 PM)
, and I don't feel any problems with the current method, even though locate.exe weighs in at a whopping 333kb here.I guess if it's just for US coins f0dder, they dont need any metricYes, but we need to convert those heathens. Let the crusades begin!
It's that independent streak they have over there-tomos (December 29, 2007, 05:05 PM)
Hmmm, I wonder what is doing that window called xplorer² in my taskbarWhat about "my network places" then? That doesn't work for me in xplorer^2 :/
The only thing for what I launch a explorer window these days is for the Control Panel, just because it's not arranged in alphabetical order in xplorer-Lashiec (December 29, 2007, 01:26 PM)
It's not necessary to use wsprintf, until it's something which works.Yeah, works, just checked out source from repo.
You can try to fix it if you wish. If you haven't noticed, new address for the repository is http://svn.locate32.net/locate32. The repository can be read by anyone and your old password should work for writing.-jmj (December 29, 2007, 05:25 AM)
Reality: Even if Windows XP is a stable operating system, the piece of mind will cost you a mere 8-10 MB, released as soon as you exit any explorer window.Yeah, and using a second explorer.exe instance isn't THAT bad, because of the copy-on-write sharing windows does of executable images (including DLLs).-Lashiec (December 29, 2007, 12:50 PM)
, xplorer^2 being a goooood alternative), you won't be launching the second explorer.exe instance very often anyway.
if you have "launch folders in a separate process" enabled (as you should), you have a separate explorer.exe for, well, folders.-f0dder (December 29, 2007, 11:34 AM)
might disable that - I never use explorer anyways...-tomos (December 29, 2007, 11:42 AM)
Crap, f0dder! Explorer.exe on my XP Pro system fluctuates from a (seldom seen) low of 13MB of memory up to 100MB of memory. Currently, using 32MB memory and 58MB VM, so having a decent day here100megs of private bytes? Holy pants.-Darwin (December 29, 2007, 11:07 AM)
. I'm tempted to have a go at writing one myself, but I don't have the free time.but would there really be many programs you have configured on your LBC that wouldn't be in your start menu?Yeah, at least in my case - after format, I carry over a lot of stuff in c:\usr\prg that doesn't need reinstall, and thus doesn't end up in the start menu... some of which is handy enough to have in a launch bar.-mouser (December 29, 2007, 10:28 AM)
) use separate applications for this. Problem with the directory/folder handling is that things like My Network Places and other folders are special, and not all explorer replacements handle them well.
