Living Room / [forum] request for link statistics
« Last post by justice on November 10, 2008, 05:06 AM »
When uploading files you can see how many downloads the file got; which is one of the best features of this forum. Is it possible to do have the same functionality with links? I don't always want to host the files here but I'd love to see how many people clicked through. maybe there's a plugin that already exists.

* Refresh the screen by pressing F5 instead of Ctrl-r (only works when window is open0
* added global hotkey Ctrl-Shift-J
* improved resizing
* smaller window

See what you think tomos :) I was thinking of some kind of live filtering when entering tasks so you could quickly find tasks in a big list, and possibly have tasks belong to a project, but I quite like the simpleness too.

Developer's Corner / Re: Minimizing all windows except one in AHK - call for help
« Last post by justice on November 10, 2008, 04:39 AM »
try this:
Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. Winget, activeId, id, A
  2. WinRestore, ahk_id %activeId%
Workaround by minimizing all windows then quickly restoring the last active one ;)

helpfile also says:
If a particular type of window does not respond correctly to WinRestore, try using the following instead:

PostMessage, 0x112, 0xF120,,, WinTitle, WinText  ; 0x112 = WM_SYSCOMMAND, 0xF120 = SC_RESTOREThis command operates only upon the topmost matching window except when WinTitle is ahk_group GroupName, in which case all windows in the group are affected.

Window titles and text are case sensitive. Hidden windows are not detected unless DetectHiddenWindows has been turned on.

I have to agree with Josh, I've never had a good running system longer than my current vista installations. It's more robust, the interface is more responsive, and the best OS i've used. Especially if you install a lot of software, there's definately less breakage over time than any XP install I used. It's just got a bad image. I wouldn't consider putting XP on a machine.

It even runs fine on MSI Wind netbooks, - with a longer battery life and better performance than a XP install (in this case).

np give me a minute, i'll change it to F5 and only when the window is active, that should sort it.

Finished Programs / JustToDoIt - Fast ToDo lister
« Last post by justice on November 05, 2008, 08:33 AM »
I've always been looking for a better todo list manager and while I was working on Axem I realised the interface was very suitable for a todo list app.

so here's JustToDoIt: A fast todo lister for my own use that you might enjoy :)
 * it creates two text files, Activetasks.txt and completedtasks.txt, each file has a list of tasks, one task per line (so should work well with your own programs)
 * you can check tasks to complete them and remove them from the list
 * no need to save

Try it now i just changed some code that might have caused it in the latest revision. If that fails, delete the settings file.
WRT subfolders, I'd like to know how people organise autohotkey projects.
do you have a seperate folder for the exe files, the releases etc? Would it be a good idea to look for compiled scripts and use that folder to compile the script to?

I can imagine the following scenarios:
1. compiled scripts + ahk scripts + zips are in project root, manually creating zip files for releases
2. ahks in rootfolder (.\), compiled scripts in subfolder (for example .\compiled)
3. source in subfolder and compiled scripts in a different subfolder (.\ahk; .\compiled). This would be hard to detect.
4. project doesn't have a structure yet.

* Added Publish Option to script context menu: create a publish.bat in the project's folder containing commands you want to run. For example: zip and upload to webspace. I'll use this myself to automate building new versions of axem.
* Added Compile & Publish option to both compile and publish the ahk script.
* No longer being asked to choose source folder when writing settings.
* Writing settings on exiting
* Listview performance improvement
* Added example publishing scripts that are used for Axem releases
* summaries are now cleared when no comment is found
* wait for compiling and publishing to finish before continueing
* Completed keyboard hotkeys
* If no new folder selected, Axem now correctly rescans current folder instead of defaulting to axem's folder

Yes download is still from reply 3. What do you think it needs before I should post it to the Lifehacker coders google group?

Am thinking it would be a good idea to add a Compile... and Package.. option as well. (package would zip all files except .ini.)

* Hide window when close button is pressed instead of closing program. (exit via tray menu or future file -> exit)

I'd like to recommend everyone to test this version. I know when you resize the window it doesn't resize the listview yet, i'll be looking at that. Fixored in r21

« Last post by justice on October 31, 2008, 07:38 AM »
This has been retracted as it's untrue. see the comments at http://forums.ea.com...jspa?threadID=457006

That said, the previous statement I made recently (that's being quoted on the blogs) was inaccurate and a mistake on my part. I had a misunderstanding with regards to our new upcoming forums and website and never meant to infer that if we ban or suspend you on the forums, you would be banned in-game as well. This is not correct, my mistake, my bad.

Are there any videos?

just my uninformed opinion ;)
When something is open-source that doesn't exclude the fact that it can be violating patents etc of closed software or even other open source software AFAIK. So then you can still get sued as a developer of open source patent violating software ;)

However if you're talking about community owned open source software then perhaps you'd have to find the programmer responsible to sue or if the whole community is resposbile then sure the whole community which presents obvious obstacles.

  2. Win = AutoHotkey Help
  3.  
  4. WorkItBaby:
  5. WinWaitNotActive, %Win%

« Last post by justice on October 28, 2008, 06:42 AM »
I didn't really delve to deep into your script because it seemed very specific. To keep focus on a certain window:
Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. Win = AutoHotkey Help
  2. {
  3.         IfWinNotActive, %win%
  4.                 WinActivate, %win%
  5.         Sleep 200
  6. }
Maybe that will help. Change Win and Sleep where appropriate.

Thanks everyone for their comments!  :)
I imagine that Axem could become very popular to package a set of separate AHK scripts together for distribution and for a more user friendly first user experience when using AHK.
-VideoInPicture (October 27, 2008, 11:21 PM)
Interesting idea, I have to think on that.

(1) I think that the icons of the AHK scripts should be shown to the left side of the Axem window to help with visual distinction.
-VideoInPicture (October 27, 2008, 11:21 PM)
Most scripts don't have icons set in their scripts but are added using the Ahk2exe utility that ships with AHK. You don't have to use resource editor, It's also possible to specify it using the following AHK code:

Menu, tray, Icon [, FileName, IconNumber, 1]:
Got to look at that, maybe some options for this without slowing down the scanning too much.

(2) Provide a way to change the icon of each AHK script, including the icon it shows for it's tray icon.
-VideoInPicture (October 27, 2008, 11:21 PM)
See ahk2exe in the autohotkey installation folder it's already possible, not related to Axem.

Scan each ahk file and look for a comment near the top of the file of the form:
; Synopsis: This line will be shown in the Axem list next to a file's name if found
(3) I have Axem running and I second the motion to show the comments near the top of an AHK file if available.
-VideoInPicture (October 27, 2008, 11:21 PM)
Looking into adding something to distinguish the items better based on content.

(4) Could we change the background color?
-VideoInPicture (October 27, 2008, 11:21 PM)
I'd suggest to change your windows theme colors instead, if I set a specific color or skin then it will look out of place on other people's machines, and adding the options would make the app too cluttered. But I can add in a line that checks for a custom include so you can maybe add this to your install using AHK ;)

(5) Place the "Rescan", "Change Folder", and "Hide" buttons at the top of the Axem window as a toolbar strip since these are higher level commands.
-VideoInPicture (October 27, 2008, 11:21 PM)
Yes the listing / presentation can be much improved it's very much a work in progress ;)
