BTW, what's the current status of any "Request a Tiny Custom App Website" thing to organise all of the posted apps? I know the original went down a couple of years ago, but has anything popped up since?

I seem to remember that the original website was archived before being taken offline in case someone wanted to host it at a later date.

Here's what the OP posted:Neurozys posted:Here's an archive of every app that was hosted on tinyappz.com. The wiki text is not included, since parsing it out of the database dump would be a huge pain, and I'm not going to put the dump online since it contains the email addresses of people who registered on the site. It's 28 MB.

I just put all my apps in a folder on my host and will create some kind of directory for them when I can get off my rear end long enough to finish that. Otherwise I think we just have the archive that CP posted above.

I could do with an tiny app that... launches another app. Basically, I have Program A which will occasionally launch Program B. I'd like to replace Program B with a better version, but the problem is that Program A has B's executable hard-coded in and also doesn't suppose arguments. What I'm thinking is that instead of A executes 'B.exe' it's more like A executes 'B.exe' B reads 'B.ini' B.ini contains 'xyz.exe -param 1 -buttes "jerk 2000"' B executes 'xyz.exe -param 1 -buttes "jerk 2000"' B would also need to stay resident and only terminate when the spawned child terminates so A stays waiting. If B could read a different config file depending on its own filename (so C.exe reads C.ini) that would be awesome. xyz.exe would probably be in the same directory as B.exe, and the name and format of the config file I don't care about.

I need a Windows developer to write me a command line application that returns a parseable list of the sound devices in the system that includes all the info in the Sound applet: That would include the device name, the "extended name" (like 5- Logitech G35 Headset), the state (Not plugged in), and whther it is the default device or default communications device (see the drop down arrow on the Set Default) button. I'm not really familiar with windows programming, and can't for the life of me figure out how to get this info out of .NET or WMI. This is for free app Soundswitch which is wrote in AutoIT. Currently I automate opening the Sound applet and scrape all this info out of the window controls, but that's clunky and it's hard to maintain state without always opening up that dialog. So...a command line program that outputted this info via stdout would rock my world!

I feel like a break from Java though so I'm going to have a go. Edit: gently caress this poo poo. OpenAL is not the way to go. I can list all active devices (ie, devices which show up in windows sound as "Connected") but can't get a true list of all devices. Hope someone can find some other way to do it. vvvv That's pretty cool. It lists all input and output devices together though, so it's hard to differentiate between them. ephphatha fucked around with this message at 13:48 on Jul 15, 2011 |

Maybe without any grouping...just list one device per line with it's associated info seperated by a comma or tab? Don't care how it looks since I'm just parsing it with another tool. If it's too much trouble don't worry about it, I can work around it. Thermopyle fucked around with this message at 22:47 on Jul 15, 2011 |

Yep I can do that. I basically just formatted it that way because that is how the information is provided by win32 (grouped by state.) I'll find time over the weekend to do it unless somebody else wants to make the change.

Ok, so I have an HDTV hooked up as a mirrored monitor so I can play games or watch Netflix from my couch. The only problem is that I have to constantly switch my default audio device manually every time I switch between SPDIF and headphones. I have a fancy keyboard that will let me call programs with the media keys, so I need a program that will pop up in the background when I press a key and switch the audio output. Pressing the key again should switch it back. Basically, a program that flips the output every time it's run, then closes.

Ok I'm not actually sure how the devices are ordered in the control panel. I'm guessing it's something weird like most frequently used in which case I have no idea how to get that information. Here's a new version anyway. The devices are ordered first by data flow (render/capture) and then by GUID. The output should be a bit easier to parse now too. http://pleasesendhelp.com/Apps/audiopyle_1.2.exe I don't know if you'll find it useful but you can also filter the results using an -f argument. Examples: -f active unplugged render : Display active or unplugged rendering devices. -f disabled notpresent capture : Display disabled or not present capture devices. -f active : Display all active devices. -f render : Display all rendering devices. If you want to display the GUIDs then you can also use -id

This is a bit of a strange one but here we go. I'd like a program that I can give a set of number/letter pairings and it can return solutions fitting a certain criteria. Specifically, I'd enter different pairings of the letters A-D and numbers 1-4 and get every combination of pairings where 3-4 pairings have the same letter and number, same letter and all different numbers, all different letters and same number, and all different letters and numbers. For an example, say I enter A1, A2, A3, B2, C3, D3, D4 the different solutions I would get would be: A1, A2, A3 A1, B2, C3, D4 A1, B2, C3 A1, B2, D3 A1, B2, D4 A1, C3, D4 A2, C3, D4 A3, B2, D4 A3, C3, D3 B2, C3, D4 The sets of data will be significantly larger and also variable in the number of pairings so you can see why doing this manually would take a lot of time. This should be doable in PHP or even Javascript and I'd actually prefer a web app if possible.

Thermopyle posted:See the application Soundswitch I mentioned 7 posts previous. This type of application would be wonderful. Unfortunately, in Vista (and later) this can only be done by something like AutoIt. In windows XP a simple registry change would change the default device, but they removed that in Vista, only allowing the user to make the change via that control panel applet. They have nice APIs to query the sound devices and do a lot of things with them, just not change the default one  .In my opinion, while i do understand their reasons , i disagree with MS on this one. Seems like a management decision that has nothing to do with developers' needs or users for that matter. Completely disconnected from reality.

Sorry Moey This is close but when entering the data set a4,b2,b2,b3,b4,c4,c4,d1,d2,d3,d4,d4 as an example I get back some sets that don't fit what I want: a4, b4, c4, c4 a4, b4, d4, d4 a4, c4, c4 a4, c4, c4, d4 Stuff like this doesn't work because even though all the numbers are the same and multiples of the same letter are present in the data set, ALL of the letters in a solution must be different, or the same. The same goes for numbers: d1, d3, d4, d4 d1, d4, d4 d2, d3, d4, d4 d2, d4, d4 d3, d4, d4 Even though all of the letters are the same, these don't work because all of the numbers are not different or the same. Thank you for your attempt, though. I'm not quite sure how difficult implementing my criteria will be over what you've got. Also I'd like the source if possible to be able to run locally or host on my own server. Moey posted:Quick question, 1 letter and number combo, or different amount of letters and numbers Just one each, though it would be nice to be able to use any amount of letters to count as one "letter" if that makes sense, just to be able to label them rather than using A, B, C, etc. bebaloorpabopalo fucked around with this message at 00:20 on Jul 19, 2011 |

Hi, I need to read a webpage (html style) and detect repetitive patterns, an example could be HTML that looks like this with the same structure, repeated 10-20 times but the contents would vary per instance. I'm doing this in PHP at the moment although perl would work fine as well. Does anybody have the knowledge or the skill to pursue doing this? I've thought about it but can't come up with a good dynamic solution. It's important that the code not be looking for this HTML specifically, but for repeated patterns, this is just an example of what the HTML i'm looking for could look like. <div class='property column-1' id='property-summary-[IMPORTANT_ID_NUMBER_I_NEED]'> <h2 class='property-title'>Complexes</h2> <div class='image-container'> <div class='image thumbnail'> <a href="/properties/details/pullman_wa_99163"><img alt="Complexes" src="/property/123.jpg" /></a> </div> <div class='property-helpers'> <li class='favorite-link'> <a href="/mysite/login?add_favorite=123" class="add-to-favorites-link">Add to Favorites</a> </li> </div> <div class='property-details'> <ul class='details-summary'> <li class='price'> <span class='price'>$XXX,XXX</span> </li> <li class='city-state'> <span class='city-state'> <span class='first city'>Pullman</span> <span class='comma'>,</span> <span class='state'>WA</span> </span> </li> <li class='view-details'> <div> <label>Courtesy of</label> <span class='courtesy-of'>citywok</span> </div> <a href="/properties/details/pullman_wa_99163">View Details</a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div>
