Oh, i hadn't noticed that.
It's interesting.. I search for "d\ga\tm", and Timer comes up, it really shouldn't.. I'm not sure if the regex would solve it, though, because i added that regex as a custom regex and then Timer stopped working as it did normally.

I guess mouser could give us some explanation? :)

Yeah it seems as a bug. I have already given notice to mouser and he said he would resolve it ;) So let us hope :)

I search for "d\ga\tm", and Timer comes up

i think this might be a bug in fscript matching of keyword. i'm passing the buck to ecaradec and see if it comes back to me :)

I have tried talking warning and I have got "unknown exception" several times and suddenly now it works fine again. I have no idea why this happends but I have included try catch statement so in case of any error you will not loose your alert message

Thanks.  I'll experiment with that!

tm settings
gets me a never-ending series of settings windows. Have to kill FARR to stifle the little blighters... :down:

Having spoken messages enabled no longer causes the message window to fail, though : :up:

same here! definitely a problem.

czechboy and i might have to talk to see if this is a bug with the new FARR system or a bug in the plugin.

i suspect the problem may be with the way that farr now signifies an Enter being pressed after a search string is set programmatically.
the solution may be simply to add the ability to add a \n to a string when you specify an alias action of "restartsearch" so that plugin/alias can choose whether to trigger the hitting of enter after setting the search string.  if you don't understand what i'm talking about that's ok, this is only for the heavy alias users and plugin writers to be concerned with.

i think there was also something farr was doing wrong that is now fixed. new version of farr+timer have no trouble with settings.

czb: you might want to make timer (and any other plugins) not launch settings until user hits enter, and just display in output that they should hit enter to launch settings dialog now that the Enter method works.  just an idea.

Hi echo!
I think you're looking for "dosearch", "restartsearch" or "dosearchontrigger". They're documented on the help file, under "Advanced Use -> Special/Virtual Launch Strings".
An example would be:
dosearch tm in 60 tada
The three different keywords are aimed at different situations, so just try each one and see which ones fits best ;)

mytm2To my surprise
dosearch helped     :Thmbsup:

It might be only me , but I wouldn't have guessed it from the HELP .  Why are aliases so different from UNIX aliases ?

Thank you for the assistance  :)

:) The aliases aren't designed to replace a search by another search, they are designed to be used to launch other programs. Only when you add one of those I mentioned do they work like you'd expect with an unix alias.
Probably, the name isn't very adequate :)

-czechboy (June 12, 2008, 11:16 AM)
Enter doesn't work for validation :(.
Typing a period is not intuitive and very puzzling for a new user (in the video the period is hardly visible ;))
Otherwise a great bravo for Timer

I'm not saying Timer plugin don't work. I'm saying that it works but with period key for validation and not with enter key (XP SP2, French keyboard).
My bad English for sure ;D.
