Application: Generator
Category:Development
Description: Hate trying to remember how to put the forum postings and test release page posting together? This handy app does it for you. Its still a Beta- but functional. Also, it will remember your username and user url on PortableAps.com so you don't have to dig it out every time!
This is a beta so the options button doesn't do anything but pop a box saying its not implemented. If you have suggestions, I'm open. It is portable, although not in PAF, as I would like to finish the app before I do up a wrapper.
BTW, the better part of this posting was made in Generator.

Interesting idea.
1. Tabbing through the edit fields works until the last two. It goes - Date -> Options -> Description
2. After submitting, the GUI is hidden for all eternity
Use the NoHide option after Gui, Submit, or show the window again after the function is finished, or set a tray option to show the window.
Otherwise, good start!
1. I think I've got that fixed.
2. Thanks- I noticed that after I uploaded and wondered how to deal with that.
EDIT All is well, thanks for the tips.
Beta 2 uploading in a couple of minutes. Compile with Options takes a long time to compile
AND! Thanks for testing

This is interesting, just a few things you should change. The main Gui should not always be on top, pushing any button such as "Options" comes up behind the Gui which makes it a hassle to see what it says. Also, its cool how it saves what you can post into the Posting.txt, but to make this more easier and faster to use, you should have it copy to the clipboard, then a message box come up saying what they wish to post is in the clipboard and to just ctrl+v it in, or something along those lines. or you could always make that an optional option for users. Overall this app has potential and I can see it being popular to forum users. Also if u need help doing something, I have a lot of experience with ahk and I could probably help you if u needed help.

One thing I think needs to be changed it the location of the colon (":"). As of now it is not bold for any of the fields and it should be. It is a very simple fix. I also think there should be a botton/tab for a RequestApp. Rather than have these be buttons at the bottom of the GUI, maybe they should be tabs at the top. I really like this app, hopefully you develop it some more.
