SOLVED: Insert Anywhere Date and Time utility
CodeTRUCKER:
Hi,
I need a utility that will stay on the top of my windows where I can "click" and the date and/or time can be inserted. I am involved in a perpetual project where the entering of Date/Time/Date & Time is necessary many times a day across multiple text-entry applications.
PS - If this is already available, please post links. Thank you.
Here is a list of requested features...
* "Always On Top" option
* Three Buttons.
* Date
* Time
* Date and Time
* The "Date and Time" button to include date, at least in this specific format, but others can be included...
"Nov 15, 2010 02:43 PM" (color only for reference, not needed in app.)
Please ask me for other formats, if you want to include them?.
* Optional Radiobuttons to select Date/Time formats *if* you have the time and inclination. Thedat & Time format above,"Nov 15, 2010 02:43 PM," is my only immediate need.
* "Date & Time" Mmm DD, YYYY HH:MM AM (the same as the above exact example that is really the most important format.)
* Another Date format MM/DD/YY (Example: 01/14/11)
* Time format 1: HH:MM (24 Hr Clock)
* Time format 2: HH:MM AM (12 Hr Clock)
* YYYYMMDDHHSS - I use this to prefix file names as a simple date tagging system. .
* It would be nice to be typing in a text editor and just click the "Insert Date" button and populate it in the document I am working on, but I can settle for sending it to the clipboard if that is all that can be done easily. .
* Small footprint
* Just big enough for the radiobuttons (for the format selections) and the three "Date," Time" and "Date & Time" insertion buttons.
* Menu in Right-Click menu, if easier.
.
* Just a thought...If app is produced in AHK, I might be able to make any necessary mods myself (once I learn AHK, that is), but any usable exec would be great at this time.
.
I think that about wraps it up. Does this sound doable? Can you give me a "best guess" ETA on completion?
Standing by...

You can actually use Auspex for this. It has pre-defined tokens for the date and time. Screenshots coming up...

Inserts today's date when you type 'dt'

Inserts the date in a format you can control when you type 'dt1'

I can add AM/PM tokens or whatever else you'd like, if you find this program useful for what you want to do. Just let me know.

Ok, I'll check it out and report back.
FMI - How did you get the "(3109.2 KB - downloaded 445 times.)" appended to your download link?
Thanks,

I have no idea! I thought it was some standard feature of the board :huh:
