Blogs

Okay, I don't really want to post this in the forums, but I figure I cn blog it here.

I am currently working on ATPad; VTi; Generator; and xVideoServiceThief

Actually, xVideoServiceTheif is done, I just haven't posted it yet. I talked to John about it, and he wasn't to enthused about the name. Also, its stuck in ALPHA. It works greet and all, but I think John would like for it to go into beta. Anyway, if you wants it, you can add a comment to the blog saying so, or just saying that the blog sucks, either way-it'd be nice to know someone's reading.

John gave me the developer permissions, so, now I has a blog.
So what do I write?
I doubt he'd appreciate me posting a rousing round of lora ipsum so . . .
Well, the first post on the blog has been blown.

I know! I'll post code examples here.

Cheerio!

After holding off on them for a while, I've finally decided to have a go at portablizing aTunes as well as Columba.

With 2.0 Alpha 1 now out I thought I would give out a rough timeline of future developments, in chronological order

Today/tomorrow: Spanish translation poll
In the next week: Assuming the poll comes up with an answer the next week should see the release of 1.2.2, which should be the last release in the 1.x series.
Two-three weeks: Alpha 2 released, this may come earlier, depending on when I get free time!

That's right, there is only one more major feature to be added before the first release of Toucan 2. Every major function listed as a target for the first alpha has now been added, except for previewing sync. However I have spent a lot of time working out how to best achieve this. Because of this I think it is fairly safe to say you can expect Alpha 1 in the next couple of weeks. Please check the rest of the blog for features that will be included in Alpha 1.

Well, 7 months after the first launch we hit the big 200,000 today Thanks to all for downloading it, and I hope to have some more news on 2.0 very shortly, progress is being made!

Just a quick little post with a preview of the new preview system for Secure. The red lettering indicates that the file will be ignored. And the best thing about this new system is that its very fast, in fact the component (wxVirtualDirTreeCtrl) only looks down two levels by default so you wont even notice a delay you click the preview button. Enjoy!

One of the new features in version 2.0 will be scripting support. Currently I have planned for the following commands but I am always open to suggestions for more.

Sync <job>
Backup <job>
Secure <job>
Delete <filepath>
Move <sourcepath> <destpath>
Copy <sourcepath> <destpath>
Execute <filepath>

Please note that this is not intended to replace batch file scripting, it is merely an easy way for you to tack a number of jobs together is an order, for example to run a Sync Update command before Encrypting.

Wow, it´s basically a whole month since my lat post, how time flies! Exams are done and my coursework is submitted so I am now able to make some good progress again and things are starting to come togther.

Currently I plan to have three development tests of Toucan 2.0 before the pre-releases, they will go something like tihs:

This page is primarily for me to keep track of my releases. Unlike the Development Test page, I will list currently release applications here, applications in beta, as well as soon to come applications. I'll try to update this chart as soon as I make a new release. I'll continue typing now so Drupal can provide a preview for this post without John noticing there's a chart following it using full HTML. Lets hope he doesn't hurt me.

Release
