New day, new beta release:
http://www.lupopensuite.com/files/dropi ... rtable.zip

It includes the amazing tproli theme for html lists:
http://www.lupopensuite.com/files/dropi ... _List.html

And now it automatically creates new lists of files each drop (I added a new style of numeration for lists, not the classic "_04" but " (04)", write me eventual ideas or requests to improve it).

Given the new major improvement, it may includes new bugs.. but given that it's near to the next stable release, I ask your collaboration to test and fix it. Thanks!

Great, the html output is simply amazing :)

I've mailed you but apparently you haven't read it, there's a simply updated version of the html, I think it's worth updating:

No changes made in the markup except the "updated" div plus the CSS part of course. Just updated the html a few seconds ago so download again if you have already did before.

No more updates, I swear! :)

Good! I think the stable release is getting close.. this time it will includes few but important features!

As usually, I sent an email to all translators for this update.. and the plan is to publish it in the weekend, after the last tests.

ps: CHIP.de contacted me to request the authorization for publication :D

The encoding of the html file is ANSI. Properties in non-English languages contain non-ansi characters and filenames/paths/etc may also, so probably a UTF-8 encoding would be better. I know it's my fault, sorry :)

If I set the target file to XXX.html, then clicking on the browse button again and selecting xml from the lower listbox and click on Save, DropIt doesn't change the extension. I think this is the progress an average user would follow but seems broken here.

I know about this limitation.. the idea is to use UTF-8 encoding by default (as indicated in html and xml headers), but there are some problems during the file creation.. I'm working to resolve them..

Could you make me a video example like the previous issue? I cannot replicate it, but I fear it is a problem of XP..

Now tried that extension thing on another PC (XP SP3) and I couldn't reproduce. So probably it's an XP SP2 related problem.

You might find this Function useful (created in 5 minutes) >> It searches a specific filetype e.g. .au3 with a particular keyword. So in the Example below I've set recursion to True and I'm looking for DropIt in .au3 files located in the @ScriptDir. Multiple filetypes aren't supported, but it's easy to add.

Hint: StringSplit() using ';' e.g. *.au3;*.txt

Code: Select all

#include <Array.au3>

Global $aArray

$aArray = _FindInFile("DropIt", @ScriptDir, "*.au3") ; by guinness 2011
_ArrayDisplay($aArray)

Func _FindInFile($sSearch, $sFolder, $sMask = "*", $iRecursive = 1, $iCaseSensitive = 0, $iDetail = 0)
	Local $iPID, $sCaseSensitive = "/i", $sCommand, $sDetail = "/m", $sRecursive = "", $sStdOut_Read = ""

	If $iCaseSensitive Then
		$sCaseSensitive = ""
	EndIf
	If $iDetail Then
		$sDetail = "/n"
	EndIf
	If $iRecursive Then
		$sRecursive = "/s"
	EndIf
	$sFolder = StringRegExpReplace($sFolder, "[\\/]+\z", "") & "\"

	$sCommand = 'findstr ' & $sCaseSensitive & ' ' & $sDetail & ' ' & $sRecursive & ' "' & $sSearch & '" "' & $sFolder & $sMask & '"'
	ConsoleWrite($sCommand & @CRLF)

	$iPID = Run(@ComSpec & ' /c ' & $sCommand, @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, 4 + 2)
	$sStdOut_Read = ""

	While ProcessExists($iPID)
		$sStdOut_Read &= StdoutRead($iPID)
	WEnd
	Return StringSplit(StringTrimRight(StringStripCR($sStdOut_Read), 1), @LF)
EndFunc   ;==>_FindInFile

OK, so I added multiple filetype support because I had time :mrgreen: >>

Code: Select all

	$sFolder = StringRegExpReplace($sFolder, "[\\/]+\z", "") & "\"

What if I was to add support for CDROM drives? So when DropIt is run from a CD or ReadOnly folder it won't write any log file or setting files.

It could be interesting.. but is the idea to ReadOnly settings and profiles that already exist or use it totally on-the-fly?

Because a fully on-the-fly is quite hard to be implemented.. it may needs special windows to select actions on the fly..

It's aimed at those that are happy with their profiles and just want to burn their DropIt (compete with Profiles) onto a CDROM, because at the moment DropIt is always writing the disk, including the Log file. Of course it's just an idea for those that still use CD's :lol:
