Re: File Renaming Using a List of Names

@juverax. I found something! SubPad (https://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=313) Years ago, I used a text editor that had selection by columns. You would in your example append the names Alabama, Berkshire, ... to the bottom of your mp3 list and open the whole thing and then use Column select...

Re: File Renaming Using a List of Names

Den4B's Renamer Lite can also do the same thing (https://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=562) The newer versions of Renamer Lite allows you to put that list (Alabama, Bershire, etc) either before or after the filename, whereas the last uninhibited version we have here only allows the list to b...

Re: Vovsoft Tree Notes

It has a lot of potential for a version 1.0. Here is the page for asking for features for future versions: https://vovsoft.com/feature-requests/tree-notes/ (it is also on the website) It loaded very fast and has a nice, clean look. Does RTF well but the buttons seem "sticky" insofar as on ...

Re: Looking for a specialty screen ruler

I found a freeware utility that appears to be able to measure percentages between two points on the screen, and hence solve the issue I raised in this thread. GCaliper is a screen calipers that you can rotate on an angle and figure out where to cut your PDF page (or anything else). Home page: https:...

Re: [BeefText:] creating new combos

In the same vein as lautrepay, This is a common problem for anything using text expanders. For text expansion, such as for transcriptions, one can preface the shortform with an easy to reach character, such as `, [, or ], as these are not used in most texts. a simple way for your need might be [tw T...

Re: Need simple portable drag and drop list program

On a whim, I checked out the Outline editors category here at PortableFreeware. I found in a quick search of the ones I've used that Tkoutline that does pretty much exactly what you want. https://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=185 It is defunct but works on my Windows 10 to this day.

Re: Turning a PDF 4 degrees

I forgot one thing. As I usually prefer a black background when working with Irfanview, especially with aging eyes, change the background to white. Click on the Options menu and choose Properties (or press P). Under the Viewing settings, change the Main window color to **white**. If you don't, the d...

Re: Xelitan PDF Reader

Great job. It is on my USB for sure. I've done a few tests. I do like how it is very small and enveloped in two files, adding to its portability. There is not a lot of wasted screen space for the buttons. It has case insensitive search, basic info about embedded fonts. Here are some observations and...

Re: Quick Clipboard Editor

Still testing but the append works. Thanks for giving a choice in Options for the delimiter, it adds to the functionality.

I found one SQLite error--I'll send the details in DM.

Re: Quick Clipboard Editor

The way cliptrap works is that anything that is copied to the clipboard is appended into a window; one is concatenated onto the rest. If I am reading a paper, and I want the title, the author(s), and the 2 significant lines from the abstract. As they are different snippets, I would highlight each of...

Re: Quick Clipboard Editor

I've played with it a bit, and like the quick transformations for the clipboard. I haven't found problems with the transformation functions yet. The only thing I find really awkward is the lack of Append. Working with academic documents much of the time, my current workflow uses Cliptrap (https://ww...
