Thank you for testing it. :D It seems not that many people have taken an interest in it. I will try and keep it updated but there hasn't been a new version of this app since late 2007

As far as it working, I haven't had any problems. I can't speak for the PAF compatibility. I use this program at work, so it's really nice having a portable version of it.

Thanks!

Your welcome :D

    In the App dir
  • rename IH Wake On LAN to ihwakeonlan
  • In the App\AppInfo dir
    • You have a readme there i dont think you need it
    • Also your icon meets the requirements for the 256 colors but now you also need the xp colors(so ur half way there!!!)
    • In the appinfo.ini 
      • Description=(Description)

        actually add a description

      • Category=

        add a catogory as well

      • DisplayVersion=0.031

        Make this a little more user friendly(that is why we have it)

      • You appinfo.ini version should be 0.9.8 not 0.9.9
    In the Other dir
  • In your Other\source dir
    • You have a file called ReadMeNow which needs to be deleted
    • Your entire ReadMe is about Sumtra PDF.(take a look at any release to get the proper design for the readme)
    • In the readme make the this line
      Copyright 2004-2007 John T. Haller

      into this:

      Copyright 2004-2008 John T. Haller
Copyright 2008 Ben Kaufman
    • You are missing an appsource.txt look at any release to see what it contains
    • Your code looks great, just remember to add the change in the $EXESTRING because u changed the app path
    • You also have a splash fade of '10' after the 1000 on line 165 that you can change to 0.
    In the main dir
  • Your help.html needs a little more info, add a link to the (original)site and an faq or forum that they may or may not have. Also change the link for IH Wake On LANPortable Thread. to the actual thread that you are using for the project

That is all I could find, when you release again i will check again

Please search before posting. ~Thanks

Aww.....

I thought I got all the readme's (I originally used digitxp's template). Guess not. I will fix all that stuff as soon as I can. I will probably need some help with the icons though (neorame will you help me?). And also I will eventually need to get the high res icon for the splash screen (neorame again? :D ). I might have a little trouble getting it out though. I have a term paper to do and regular homework also :'(
Thanks for the tips,
Bensawsome

To prevent the name of the app your using as a base for your new app appear in files, use one of the two "Cloning Cleanup" tips here:

http://cubegames.net/development/pre-deployment_checklist#cloning_cleanup

Cancer Survivors -- Remember the fight, celebrate the victory!
Help control the rugrat population -- have yourself spayed or neutered!

this is cool

All right! not the best implementation of WoL on the web, but it works for small-scale stuff. So far, running no problems, haven't checked if any files left behind yet though

Nope its not my app. But do you mean by switch off it turns the computer off?
