Finished Programs / Re: AHK Coding Snack Idea: Deluxe AHK Script Manager (DAHKM)
« Last post by justice on October 27, 2008, 10:04 AM »
Revision: 11
1. Use default editor for .ahk  from HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AutoHotkeyScript\Shell\Edit\Command
2. Added option to ignore self (now turned off by default)

This means you can now use Axem to edit itself haha.

AXEM:

    * When you start the script it discovers a list of .ahk scripts in a userdefinable (saved) directory.
    * Double clicking on tray will present a simple form with each script listed on its own line with a checkbox on the left.
    * The user can then enable and disable scripts from that dialog by checking boxes.
    * Scripts that are enabled will be launched if not currently running; scripts unchecked will be closed.
    * There's a contextmenu to edit, compile, and publish your AHK scripts!
    * Checks will be shown for scripts that are currently running.
    * It uses the correct script editor, with notepad as an alternative.

Download Axem (always latest version)

Oh, I'm still running "full UAC" - no tweaks, haven't diabled the "protected desktop", etc. I don't really find it annoying once the initial new-setup-install-spree is done (and you can disable it temporarily while doing that, anyway).
-f0dder (October 27, 2008, 05:27 AM)
Just a note, if you want tot disable UAC and enable it later on. I've had experience with this, program settings and licence status might change. This is not Vista's fault AFAICS but lazy programming (storing settings / licence files in the program's installation folder should be avoided, that's why with UAC on programs don't have permission to update their own folder) but it did happen with Direct Access the one time I tried it.

However it's quite easy to remedy, moving the files to where the program expects them to be would solve the situation.

General Software Discussion / Re: Writing to two folders simultaneously. Possible? Tired of running synch progs
« Last post by justice on October 25, 2008, 07:35 AM »
If you don't want to spend money, alternatively it's easy to just run robocopy on startup with the /MOT:m option where m is how often you want to sync again, in minutes.
             Repeated Copy Options
            /MON:n : MONitor source; run again when more than n changes seen.
            /MOT:m : MOnitor source; run again in m minutes Time, if changed.
http://www.ss64.com/nt/robocopy.html

so robocopy c: d: /MOT:5 would sync every 5 minutes any changes from c to d. If you setup a scheduled task to run it on logon or as a service you would never see it.

Not as clever as MirrorFolder though, by description I'd go for that, you might get better performance out of MF.

Living Room / Re: keep xp, put vista on 2nd partition on a raid 0 drive - will i regret it?
« Last post by justice on October 22, 2008, 08:51 AM »
In the situation of non-raid 2 harddrives with XP installed on disk 1 and vista on disk 2:
Vista will install its own bootloader on disk 1 and bootfiles on disk 2 and you will now require both harddisks to be available to boot into vista, if you want to get rid of it later you will have to go to the windows xp recovery console and fixmbr & fixboot

Don't have any experience of Raid 0 so not sure how that affects it.

Also any of the files created by vista will have permissions set to the vista system, with another installation I cannot get rid of the Windows and Program Files folder and I had to take ownership of my vista created folders.

Coding Snacks / Managing tasks / windows like real time strategy games
« Last post by justice on October 06, 2008, 04:24 AM »
A great post on the Windows 7 Engineering blog about Managing windows in windows 7 got me thinking again on window management

I tend to work on several different tasks, each with their own windows. Usually this is a web development task, a web research task, maybe an email / administration task and a file management task. For example the webdevelopment task can consist of Dreamweaver, beyond compare, several browsers, remote desktop, visual studio.
That's 6 windows for one task, and then with 4 tasks this can easily get to 15+ windows.

The taskbar, systemtray, alt-tab etc don't work very well in this scenario. Instead of using virtual desktops which are never very well implemented in my opinion, I was thinking about creating window groups ala RTS games:

* Define a group by selecting multiple windows on the taskbar, then ctrl-<number> them
* ctrl-numbering with no windows selected should remove the group.
* Switch to a group by pressing windowkey-number (unfortunately number only will conflict, although windows+number is also the hotkey for quick launch icons bah) - this should minimize or hide (?) the other groups.
* add the current window to a group by activating it and pressing shift-number
* remove the current window from a group by activating it and pressing alt-number

Would this be worth pursueing?

General Software Discussion / Re: Installers Hall of Shame
« Last post by justice on September 27, 2008, 03:10 AM »
I was thinking of some kind of autohotkey-autoinstaller that would have data files for versions of products and a general settings area where you could check/uncheck 'set desktop shortcut' 'install toolbars' etc that most programs ask, I don't know why the installation routine is not built in in windows more to give these options centrally. Sadly I don't have the time but the idea might help someone ;)

General Software Discussion / Re: 'Everything' is one FAST file search engine
« Last post by justice on September 27, 2008, 02:55 AM »
wow it is fast. two tips, theres a ftp/http server so other users can remotely search your system (impressive), and if you search for *.ext then it seems to work on extensions only. It did scan insanely fast and searching is instant. Thinknig its worth having next to locate.

Also if you got a fileserver or backup server just run everything and one of the servers and you'll have instant access to its files remotely

Now I get this instead:
---------------------------
Find and Run Robot

Find+Run Robot Encountered an exception error (EAccessViolation). Please report to [email protected].
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

---------------------------

---------------------------
Find and Run Robot
---------------------------
Access violation at address 74E50DE8. Read of address 74E50DE8.
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

This is on an XP machine. I also tried 0.2 (not 0.1) at work on my vista machine and I get the same error message.  I get it when my tasks are loaded. Internet Explorer is NOT my default browser on both systems, in case this matters. The last two errors only occured the second time i tried it (probably because i took longer to click ok) and when not clicking on the OK button repeat themselves after about 4-5 seconds. After I closed all errors then farr crashes. I unticked all plugins from the plugins part of the preferences.

Are there any error logs somewhere that I can attach?
