I'd like to request a program to do focus on mouseover (Windows platform). I know you can do it through the registry, but I'd like to be able to have it on computers where I don't have access to the registry. Also a lot of the computers don't have .NET or anything fancy. This program is almost exactly it, except I don't want the copy/paste functionality with the mouse buttons. http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/nt/TXMouse/

Wow. I really need to play with image manipulation in .NET. I didn't realize that it can be that easy. And I don't see one comment in your code there Neurosys!

I am looking for a program that I can point to a folder, (e:/mp3s) and will make a m3u or other playlist in alphabetical order of the files inside each folder, for each and every sub-folder. I would like these files to be placed in any directory that I choose. Is this very hard?

Sorry about the no comments thing, just tends to happen when I start coding after midnight. There's a bunch of nifty graphics stuff, it just takes some seeking out. I would have liked to have a tolerance setting like the magic wand in Photoshop, but then I wouldn't have been able to do the transparency in one line (with Bitmap.MakeTransparent ).

I'd like a commandline app (or anything I can run in OS X) where the last 10 IM's sent to an AIM address are put into an RSS feed. I'm guessing it could be tossed together by somehow linking Perl AIM libraries and something like this perl::rss library Essentially, I'm putting up an Instant-Feedback thing for my TV station, where someone can IM someone and it will show up on a ticker on the bottom of the screen (already have that stuff working).

Also once you have java start a phone call the phone takes control away from the java so it couldn't do more stuff in the middle of the call, but it could probably initiate it.

I'd like an application that logs into a POP3 email server and deletes all emails over a certain size. It'd be cool if it listed the headers and let you pick which emails to delete. My grandfather is on backwoods dialup (2-3K/s max) and people keep sending him 5Mb videos that take him days to download. It'd be wicked awesome if you could schedule the automated portion of it to run once every few hours. Bonus points if it scans for executable attachments. Right now, I'm downloading his email in outlook then deleting the culprits and then sending/receiving again to clear it from the server. It's kind of a pain in the butt. I can't really do anything myself until May (I'm sick, behind at work and it's the middle of exams), so if anyone wants to give that a try I'd be grateful. fez2 fucked around with this message at 03:36 on Apr 20, 2007 |

You know what would be sweet? A little application that sits in memory and at the push of the '~' key drops down a dos box window like in Quakeworld. Pressing '~' again slides it back up, where it remains in memory with your command history and last executed commands and such. I found something like this a while back, though it was horribly designed, buggy, a resource hog and was given a lame 'skin.' Any of you blokes up to the challenge? This would kick rear end :D

Neurozys posted:Sorry for the contentless bump, but we could really use more requests. 1. Something that downloads the animated gif of the weather radar from my area (file is located here, and no that url doesn't change) and then displays it in a window. The window shouldn't have a title bar or anything, just a frame big enough for that gif to fit in it. If I press escape or click anywhere on the gif, the window closes. I was able to do all of this in AutoHotKey except no matter what I did I couldn't get the gif to actually animate. This is important. If you want to make it more useful to other people and have the user specify the url of radar gif file on the initial run that's fine. Bonus points: Display either the 3 or 5 day forecast from my area (zip code 62704) in text-only format at the top or bottom of the radar. I should be able to toggle this display on and off via a key like space or shift or whatever. 2. Screenshot grabber with a twist. I want to be able to click and drag a rectangle on the screen. The graphic contents of that rectangle are then copied over to a new window. Scaling the window also scales the graphic inside it to match, though there should be a button or hotkey to revert it to its original size. I should be able to drag the window with the mouse. I'd also like to save the image as either BMP or JPG, to toggle the window as "always on top" and to set the opacity of the window (in percent) if possible. Bonus points: The mousewheel functions as a quick zoom-in / zoom-out on the window.

I have a app request. I'd like a program that would allow me to control Windows Media Player on my Desktop machine from my PocketPC, over my wireless network. Nothing fancy like playlists or anything like that. Just a simple Play/Pause/Next/Prev control, using the .NET compact framework on my Windows Mobile 2003 device. I'd assume the best way to do this would be to write a server app that sits on the desktop and waits for requests from the client app on the mobile device. If someone writes this for me I'd be very happy, since it'd be ideal for parties.

I have what's hopefully an easy request. Essentially I'd be interested in a program that dumps the directory listing of a dvd/cd that's in my dvd drive to something that I can use in excel or a text file. Although I'm not sure how well the information could be organized in excel. To explain it a bit better, I was wanting to catalogue all my DVD's. Writing all the tv shows, artists, and files that are on the surface of the disc is a pain in the rear end and unsightly. I'd rather just assign it a number, such as DVD 32, then open up a catalogue on my computer to find out what's on it. Also I'd be able to search through the catalogue to find what I want, rather than sticking in a bunch of DVD's to find out what I want. Assuming it's a text file, It would output the txt file to be "DVD/CD ##.txt", depending on whether it's a CD or DVD, and a number of my choosing I guess. Then it would scan the contents and list them in some sort of format. IE: DVD/CD ## SUMMARY: xx files total/yy MB total [MP3S] -somerandomfile.txt 1kb -[ARTIST] --files1.mp3 3mb --files2.mp3 4mb -[DUCKS] --ilikeducks.jpg 102kb The formatting isn't very concrete, but it's an idea. As long as it's legible. blahz fucked around with this message at 12:47 on Apr 20, 2007 |

Would you be able to make a little app that would, upon running it, open one program, and close another? It would need to be easily customizable for selecting the locations of the files needed for opening and closing. I need something like this for my dockbar. It gets in the way of playing games, and sometimes I forget to turn it off and don't realize until I'm neck-deep in a firefight and suddenly Word opens up, so if I had a program that would open the game, and at the same time, automatically close the dockbar, that would be  .

Thanks in advance, guys! I love these threads. My program should be pretty easy. This may sound stupid, but I would like a context menu extension that can toggle "show hidden files and folders" on and off, preferably with only one context entry. That is, I don't want one context menu entry saying "Show" and one saying "Hide," but rather one entry, like a toggle. I don't really use hidden file settings to hide things, but just to reduce clutter by hiding infrequently accessed files/folders or those stupid undeletable ones that come with XP. Sometimes, it is necessary for me to see them and I hate having to go through folder options to toggle this. Basically, I am lazy.

Either way, take a look at this: WeatherDisplay, I hope it's what you were looking for. The forecast is only for today and tomorrow, I'm afraid, the yahoo rss doesn't give out more. You can click on it, though, which will open yahoo weather in your default webbrowser.

I'd like a program that acts basically as a customized random image viewer. It would scan a directory structure (e.g. a dir and all its subdirs), and then let you check off some of those dirs. It'll then go through and select random image file and display it. Then it'd have a button to go through and pick another random one and display it. (or to listen for a particular keystroke would be even better.) It could use the standard windows image viewer for actually displaying the image. EDIT: This would also be great for music! You could select an image and an audio program with a 'browse...' button and it'd use that to show images or play music files. Could anyone do this? Thanks!

Is there any easy way to create a windows app that feeds a command-line program variables, either based on a directory of contents or a selection of files, etc? I have a command-line tool that I'd like to figure out how to mass-process images. It should be able to take a directory of jpeg2000 images and one .xml file, and use the command line tool to embed the .xml into the jp2, and save out new .jp2s. This is easy in a single instance, but obviously I'd like to batch this. I'd also like to be able to mass-extract .xml from the .jp2's. The string goes something like this: tool.exe -i file.jp2 -o file_new.jp2 -xml file.xml -lic <string> <string> -i is input, -o is output, -xml is the xml file, if that wasn't obvious. The -lic is the temporary license code I have from the company. It's very clumsy in that I have to append it to the command every time it's run. I'm not a programmer, so I'm not sure if I can simply use something like visual basic to create a front-end for the command line tool or what.... ideas, opinions? Anyone want a project?
