***Tinyappz.com will has been shut down. If you had anything there that you need a copy of PM me and I'll retrieve it from the backup. Feel free to continue using this thread as you see fit. Thanks everyone!*** Update: 4/20/2010 Here's an archive of every app that was hosted on tinyappz.com. The wiki text is not included, since parsing it out of the database dump would be a huge pain, and I'm not going to put the dump online since it contains the email addresses of people who registered on the site. It's 28 MB. My first request a tiny custom app thread went over well, but keeping track of every request and every fill became really unwieldy after the first few pages. However, it's been chugging along some six months now, so I guess people still want some tiny custom apps. I'm now unemployed and therefor have far to much free time. Plenty of other people on this forum like the occasional small coding project. So, I've decided to breath some new life into the concept with this brand new thread, and, much more importantly, a companion site - http://www.tinyappz.com/ The idea is simple, you think of some tiny, one trick pony application that you'd like to have for whatever reason. You post your request here, then you post your request here. Myself or one of the other talented coders on this board sees your request, decides to fill it (or not) and posts it on the Tiny Appz wiki as a new article. Then they delete it from the Open Requests list and brag about their accomplishment here. Request guidelines -First post your request in this thread -Then use the Add Request page to add your request. -Adding a link back to your request on this thread seems like a good idea. -Not all requests will be filled. Mostly because we're doing this for fun and your request might not be fun at all. Application guidelines -Absolutely no exploitive code! No virii, no backdoors, etc. -If possible provide both source and executable -First post your application on the wiki -Mark the request as filled (follow the # link in the open requests list and follow the directions) -Then post your application here with a link to the page you created. -You should quote the request you're responding to. -You can post unsolicited apps/fill your own request. You may look foolish. -Assuming your app actually is tiny, it can be hosted on the wiki, simply put it in a zip file and upload it just like a picture. -A screen shot is encouraged. -If you contribute multiple applications you can add a page for yourself with links to your work. The website is a MediaWiki site with a few extensions. It's hosted by Dreamhost (blame them for any downtime.) Please refrain from vandalism.

I posted this in the other one, but I would like if possibleL a calling card java app for a cell phone. It stores a calling card phone number and the calling card pin number, lets you choose from your phone book a number to call with calling card. * dials CC phone number * preferences lets you choose which is first in the list, the phone number to dial or the CC pin * dials each one seperately when a button is pressed.

From the last thread, for my stats-output-to-text custom app:JediGandalf posted:Unfortunately I know nothing when it comes to windows scripting. However, I did construct this in C#. Hopefully this will be just as good if not better. Thanks man ! Seems really cool, I can't get it to output the text file though...in APP > Preferences it asks me to OPEN a file, so I tried creating a blank info.txt file and opening it but that didn't work, wouldn't let me click OK. So where does the txt get outputted to ? I minimized it and after a while I think it quit itself ? I'll leave it open again to see if it does it again. Thanks a lot anyway man, it's otherwise exactly what I wanted.

I would love someone if they could make a program that copies a Dir, its sub folders, and its files then moves them to to a different Dir (I would love for the source and destination to be editable via a .ini or something) but leaves the folder structure from at source the same (its dose not remove the folders but does remove the files). if you have any questions my aim is in my profile and thank you.

I would really love some functions in C++ (or C) that:
I would like to make a truly badass mass tag & rename program, but one that can also rename files based on their tag contents OR fill out all their tags taking info from their filenames (I have had to do both way too many times). Tag&Rename and iTunes just can't do what I want (iTunes refuses to care about ID3v1 tags). Finding and reading both versions of tags in an mp3 file is the only part that I have no idea how to do and don't have any time to research.

Wow, awesome to see this thread return. I have a request for what I take to be a pretty quick wav audio file splitter: A fast, no-frills app which splits wav files into a desired number of even segments, saving those files to a subdirectory: -- Input syntax like "wavsplit -9 somesound.wav", which will split somesound into 9 equally sized wav files, and save them to ../pieces/ -- Preferably doesn't need to load the entire wave file into memory, so that large (multi-gb) files can be easily split. Someone might have done this before, but I've only found spyware, memory-intensive (ie, doesn't load the whole 2gb file into memory first), or overkill software.

Mr. Heavy posted:"ID3v2 support" is actually support for a whole bunch of conflicting ID3v2.x standards. Either only implement one minor version, or have fun. You know your format is overcomplicated when your own reference implementation can't read or write it. Wikipedia posted:Despite being over six years old, ID3v2.4 has not seen much adoption. This is likely because the ID3v2 reference implementation still cannot read or write it.

I would like a program that on launch: 1. Waits for 10 seconds. 2. Disables the IEEE1394 controller. 3. Waits for 5 seconds. 4. Enables the IEEE1394 controller. 5. Prompts if the device is enabled. 6. Gets user input (yes or no). 6a. If yes, quits. 6b. If no, returns to step 2. I wrote a batch file that does this, but I would like a win32 app that runs at startup. Is that tiny enough? Thanks...

A service that runs on my laptop that automatically checks a file on my web server. When that file contains something (or exists, whatever), my laptop self destructs (or deletes specific folders/files). 1- Laptop get stolen 2- I upload a file called "fuckyoubastard.htm" on my server. 3- Thief connects to the net, laptop automatically checks my site for that file, it exists ... 4- Laptop deletes everything, my server logs the IP that asked for that file (which might come in handy.) My laptop was recently stolen and I wish I had some way of remotely erasing my poo poo. That would be handy for my home PC too.

I don't if it was that my request was too big or ignored or whatever I'm going put it here again. If someone made it it would make me very happy. A program which when given two images will rotate and scale one of them to match the other one based on points placed onto the images. Like if I have two maps but they are different sizes and orientations so you place points which are the same location on the maps and then the program uses the orientation of the points to do the scaling/rotating/translating of the images.

Hopefully this is good enough: GoToHell 0.2 source code here If you have GoToHell 0.1, download and install 0.2 right now. Version 0.1 contained a pretty serious bug where if it couldn't connect to the server hosting the theft alert file, then it would delete all your private files (or whatever you had set it to delete) whether the theft alert file exists or not! I found this out the hard way when I turned on my computer while my internet connection was down It should automatically run each time you turn on your computer. Read the README for instructions on how to set it up once installation is over. I also should point out that I wrote this program in one night, so not only is it pretty rough around the edges, but it might blow up your computer or erase all your porn or something. Hopefully not, though  I'd test it on a folder full of empty text files first.

I've not found a util that can do this (if there is one i'd love to know). What i'm looking for is a util that can open (and close) a number of applications, files and stop/start services in one click. The purpose of this is when I am working on a project, I always load the same apps and files each time, typically this would be: Dreamweaver Zend Studio A wikidpad file for notes and documentation etc Start Apache (the service on my local machine) Start MySQL (the service on my local machine) A few folders in explorer Firefox, to the local development site Then when i'm done, I close them all down again. I might then work on a different project that requires a different set of applications, services and files to be opened/started. (Say, Installshield, Photoshop, Snagit, Robohelp) Then say I want to play a game, I close most of the apps I have open, stop unnecessary services etc I would envision the program to have a list of "profiles", each profile defines a list of services/files/folders/applications to open. You click the "open" button for the profile and all the defined things open up. A second button, "close", closes them all. This would need to be intelligently done so that it does not try to open stuff that's already open or close things that are already there etc. (and if you're switching from one profile to another that it doesn't close an app then immediately reopen it, since that's unnecessary). The open/close profile should not affect stuff that's not in its list (so it leaves, say, trillian alone). Lastly, a profile should be storable in an individual file so that it can be transported to different machines and still operate correctly (assuming that each machine has the same apps installed in the same places, the same services, etc)

With doStuff.bat you can choose exactly what you want to happen after Firefox is closed. "rem 500" at the beginning of doStuff.bat is how long to wait (in milliseconds) before executing the batch file after closing Firefox.

Don't sweat it, I don't want it taking up too much of your time. If you don't mind though, I would like to change it to every 20 minutes as every hour is a little large. If it helps, for the bug: the new server has one large hard drive partioned into two...a 8gb and a 270gb partition. Apart from the ram/cpu it's pretty much the same as the machine I tested on: XP pro.
