FuryCell Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 (edited) Here is a program I made called RocketLaunch. It makes finding items in your startmenu easier by letting you query though them. Attached is a zip plus some screenshots. The zip contains the compiled exe , the source, and a documentation file. (It can also be viewed online http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/public/SolidSnake/Documentation.html). Please let me know what you think of it.Edit:Changed About Box to reflect my new email address.

FuryCell Posted January 21, 2006 Author Share Posted January 21, 2006 Updated. Removed the compiler options file as it was causing compiling problems.

But Microsoft beat you to this one , or at least in their latest build of Windows Vista.

But you can still be the XP King well, sry but f*** msVISTA!!! they are incredibly lame. they just copy all the cool apps of mac OS X!how pathetic is that?the answer is simple: it's micro$oft!AND you need the best/fastest PC to run vista, 'cause of all the visuals.apple did the same thing long ago, and it works on a simple G4...anyway...

sPeziFisH Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 cool, I didn't know that a mac has cool features like that. SolidSnake, I like this app - and I got some ideas for enhancements. On the one hand I would like to have a hotkey (like rakudave's QuickGold), e.g. win + space to start RocketLaunch. RocketLaunch should be started in the tray, menus like 'Options' or 'About' should be in a tray-menu - I like things with a minimalistic & slim appearance. The RocketLaunch-Window itsself should be a small window without a titlebar (so no $WS_CAPTION), only the edit-control with a small icon left of it - your rocket-icon instead of 'Query' - its sure that the edit is for the query and giving an icon gives you the place to move the small window (as no window-titlebar is there) - the window-position should be saved. Maybe double-clicking at the icon (or ctrl + click (or whatever) at that place) can be used for regenerating SDB, options or ... 'Regenerating SDB' could also have a hot-key, which is active if the RocketLaunch-window (the edit etc.) is visible. The window is closed (made unvisible) by pressing escape (esc) if visible and selecting close/exit/quit in the tray to quit the whole app - so no quit-button is needed. The results are shown by using the dropdown-box (like now) directly under the edit-control, up- and down-keys should change the dropdown-box-selection. Maybe its worth about introducing a launch-counter, so that the possible-dropdown-entries with the most launches will be available as first selection - if so, there has to be a 'clear launch-counter'-button - just an idea. If so, after regenerating the SDB old counts have to be taken over - I didn't have a look if you are really creating a new one or if you are deleting and adding some entries; if creating a new one there will exist two SDBs between regenerating. I don't know if the whole idea is really worth using, maybe typing and using up/down will be fast enough, at least after been used to work with RocketLaunch. The 'regenerated SDB'-info-window in the options (after pressing the 'regenerate SDB now'-button) should have a 1sec- or 2sec-timeout - I don't need this info at all... Keep up the good work greets, sPeziFisH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuryCell Posted January 26, 2006 Author Share Posted January 26, 2006 (edited) Thanks all for the replies. @RakuDave The GUI for QuickGold is awesome. @Flaxcrack Yeah. Yeah looks like MS beat me but as you said this might be useful for all of the people who useful XP or lower. @sPeziFisH You have a lot of good ideas. I will hopefully implement some of them in the next version of RocketLaunch. I especially like the idea of having RL have a hotkey to pop up its window and having a tray icon with menu.
