[OffTopic] is that win+i or win+L  :tellme: :) win+i googles nothing so I think it's lock keyboard or lock something? (how do you unlock :tellme: :) ) [/OffTopic]

true mwb1100
the Plus version is not supported by the european servers - I've opted for the american ones now so wont go back unless things very sluggish or something :)

hmm
a straight forward copy/ drag n drop of files in DOpus results in new modified date - is that the norm -
using SFFS the files keep their original modified dates (I've no experience with online backup or with networks even :) )
I'm reasonably used to SFFS so probably wont use Jungle Disk as the actual backup software

Well, unless you plan on constantly moving a lot of data the lower performance shouldn't be too much of an issue.  Just schedule Jungle Disk to do the transfers when you aren't on your computer.  When I first installed it, I transferred about 2 gigs worth of data over the first couple of days.  Since then, I only move a few MB per day.

thanks Carl :up:
rebooting now for the drive remapping

I'm just after installing Jungle Disk & opening an account with Amazon
Opening amazon a/c is a bit confusing -
I thought I was just signing up for S3 & was faced with a list of services with no S3 in sight till I figured it's "Amazon Simple Storage Service" (I presume!)

my question is
Anyone in Europe using American storage for S3 ?
-
The American storage is a lot cheaper but they do say that the European will give better performance in Europe..
If the American storage is atall passable I'll probably go with that cause I will be loading lots of GB's
although looking again it's 13c(US) more expensive per GB in Europe which wont break the bank...

edit/ corrected my sums

I meant that I prefer to use simple <Win>-keyed move windows to its positions, without any generation of grid on the screen. Anyway I'll try to make it by myself.

there are a couple of other hotkey scripts here (dc) that move windows around - I'm happy with gridmove so havent paid much attention to them
Also not sure what to search for ...
these might be worth a read
DONE: move around windows with keys + extra feature
and
(Feature Request) Arrow keys to move windows inside grid

Quick File Compare. Check out with a single click whether two files are same or different.

Yaaah!

I actually dont want to have to look at text & compare it (or even know where the differences are) - I just want to know if they're the same or not :)

Maybe I should just ask DonL seeing as I have XYPlorer liscence...

thanks Abterix ... and jgpaiva (i think :P)

actually I wasnt as lazy as it looked ...
I had found the thread Abterix points to
I think there is no "Support for multi-session" CDs right now.(***)

Changel log 2.4.0.0 says "Added: Support for multi-session/track CD reading/burning (*using a CUE file "

See the forum "Multisession Disk, Where is the option??" too.

I had also found this thread *
ImgBurn can't start/continue a multisession disc in Build mode, although it can read and write multisession discs in Read and Write modes smile.gif
-http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=6576&hl=multisession
which I had misread as ImgBurn can.... which left me very confused :)

I'm always amazed how little interest there is in multi-session burning
maybe it's only when one starts working [at home] with bigger files (and doing half-hourly or so backups) that it seems attractive ??

Keep thinking about going online backup but slow to change...

* edit/ * boy, do they have some NSFW avatars over there ...
9468
and
Support for multi-session/track CD reading/burning

has anyone actually used imgburn for multisession ?
I cant find anything related to it in programme or "Guide"/help pdf
I know, I know, I should go ask in their forum but I dont have time right now so thought I'd try the lazymans way :)

I get quoted $59 here for the pro version ...

strange that it's never been fixed ...

yesterday a local tech-mag did a write-up on Kingsoft quoting the price for the suite at around US$110 (via a local reseller)

so Softmaker Office sill comes in cheaper (for commercial use) at just under $80
9472
- you have to register. As with any other Office pack you will have to give it a/your name as Author before creating your first document, and that is all - that is the registration - they don't even ask for an email address. But you cannot fill out "Organisation", because that will move the license from Private freeware user to company shareware user.

wonder what the situation is with it for commercial usage -
I dont see any buy links at their site... I'm just curious really, like Darwin I have my share of office software installed, esp considering I hardly ever use the stuff :-[)

I keep going back to a free copy of Nero burn I have (with simple interface), dont even know what version (7 maybe) -
but anyways, keep going back to it because multisession simply WORKS

mind you I think(?) img burn may have that capability now & I havent checked it out...

I have never seen "Taiyo Yuden" discs in the UK - online or in the shops - but then I haven't really looked for them.

I've brought them as Plextor discs on ebay.de but I couldnt guarantee you they're not forgeries
