App Updates

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.

ATPad is "done". I just have to test the code I added to handle language switching.

Generator is at Beta 2- in it I fixed some stupid errors. Beta 3 is sitting on my flash drive as well, with an annoying bug I have to fix. At that point, I can post it.

VTi. Ahh, VTi. I've been trying to get a stupid linking program for a calculator for awhile now. I finally found one, but, horror of horrors, it uses HKLM. Now, this isn't a problem for me as I usually have administrator rights. But some don't, so I'm in the process of trying to compile it to use the HKCU branch of the registry. BTW, if anybody knows how I can get ahold of a legal copy of C++ Builder 3, I'd owe you one.

BONUS: Timer. Its done, I just have to PAF'y it and put it up. This could be done within the week.

But! I'll post the source code for it- how bout that? You need a timer, here's a good one.

	Gui, 2:Add, Text, x16 y10 w400 h200 , Timer was written one night when I need a timer and I didn't have a stop watch.  Originally, it was about 15 lines of code.  Now, its extended to 112 lines of AHK code (some eneter for readability and still growing.)`nPosition save is enabled by defualt.  If you don't want to have Timer save its position every time, you can manually set settings.ini to look like the following: `n[WindowSaving] `nsave=false `nOr, you can click on the nice little buttons below. `nYou can use both the buttons and hotkeys to start and stop the timer. `nPress Win+S to start the timer and Win+F to stop the timer. `nSave time will make timer append the file times.txt with your value. Win+T will also create the entry.  If timer.txt doesn't exist, Timer will create it. `nTimer is an OpenSource Project, so, you can view is illustrious source if you wish.  The source is included in the file that you downloaded.

Save it as whatever you want .ahk and run. This is an autohotkey program.

You will also have to create a settings.ini with the following contents:

[WindowPosition]
X_Postion=457
Y_Postion=384

[WindowSave]
Save=true

Enjoy! BTW- This is a GPL L2 app, but I'd appreciate it if you didn't post it in the forums, as I can do that fairly quickly. And press the Help|About button if you want to know more.

Oh! I almost forgot- I got together a new Dev Test of FakeNES. I'm gonna play with the code a bit more, and then, I'll post that.
