Problem launching Java app with minimised console

Submitted by Matt Harris on October 14, 2008 - 5:30am

I'm working on a launcher for a Java application and wish to have the console window to be minimised at startup.

The use of the javaw.exe executable (instead of java.exe) is not a suitable solution as certain console messages need to be visible.

At the moment, the code snippet below launches successfully, but with a normal console window:

; create STARTUPINFO structure
System::Alloc /NOUNLOAD 68
Pop $5
System::Call /NOUNLOAD '*$5(i 68, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i 1, i 6, i, i, i, i, i)'
; create PROCESS_INFORMATION structure

Windows port for LGames

Right now, I'm working on packaging the whole LGames suite.
Unfortunately, 2 of the Apps I like best, LTris and LPairs, dont have windows ports. They are sourceode and linux only.

So my question is this:

Is there anyone willing and able to port them or help me giving it a try?
Or update LBreakout2 to the latest version?

I emailed the guy in charge and he would be greatful if we could find someone as all the windows ports werent done by him but different people.

Hi guys,
Here's MrBar again. I've done it for testing the new features of R34. Yesterday, Elite343 sends me a new theme where he packed some themes in one folder. I never realized this could be done. So I've stolen his idea to publish MrBar again Wink

Sunbird "custom export view" request

Submitted by uberoi on October 6, 2008 - 11:25am

I love Sunbird Portable. I use it to make a calendar I share with others. I am forced, for unrelated reasons, to share the calendar by exporting as a webpage or sometimes printing it. Both of these result in a multi-page list, starting at the beginning of the entire *year*, not "today." It's not pretty to look at, it isn't easy or quick to find something in, and I have no control over how I can export it.

I think that many of the users here have found themselves staying up too late and wishing the next day that they had something that would tell them when to go to sleep or when to do something. So I am proposing that a All in one Clock be made. So you could put in your own reminders, set a specific date, time, or week for your computer to Turn off, standby, hibernate or restart. Then you could even have your computer do certain tasks at certain times, such as locking down for your lunch break, playing your favorite song, or just running another program, etc.

Hey all,
This is kinda a general request for help. While working on Frets on Fire Portable I keep running into a slight problem. One in-game mod works but the other one does not. I first mentioned it here and have not gotten a response. I have tried everything I can, and have been working on this non-stop for the past and hoped to have the problem fixed be the today but it has not worked at all. So if anyone can take a look at it I would really grateful
