MiniTasks

[fishgod]

There is an updated version of this script.
It is now in the > Mega ScriptsPack <

MiniTasks v0.01.0001
Run shorts pieces of code, Start ScriptFiles, XY-Commands, WebSearches, ...

This script allows you to have a list of MiniTasks from diffent types.
No longer wasting catalog-space as scripts-launchpad.
Fully dynamically generated menus from the .ini-File.
The script includes Create New/Edit/Delete/Rearange-functions with a nice interface.

Take a look at the MiniTask.ini-file to understand what is possible and how it works.
Currently only the items are editable via script-menus, when you need to edit the types you'll have to go into the .ini-file.

Download:

MiniTasks.zip

(The zip-file contains the scriptfile MiniTasks.xys and a sample-configuration MiniTask.ini)

Changes:

Code: Select all

v0.01.0001  2008.04.16

  can be created via menu

v0.01.0000  2008.04.16
+ initial release

New type for MiniTasks:
Every setting available via Script command: setting can be set via a nice On/Off menu

Place the following piece of text as new "Type#"-entry into your MiniTask.ini

Code: Select all

TypeName=Setting OnOff
TypeDescription=Enter the Name of the Setting here:
TypeDefault=AutoRefresh
TypePattern=Global $g_return; Load ("""On""<crlf>  Global "."$"."g_return;<crlf>  "."$"."g_return=1;<crlf>""Off""<crlf>  Global "."$"."g_return;<crlf>  "."$"."g_return=0;"), , s; Setting %s, $g_return, p;

Now you can create a "Setting OnOff"-item, simply enter a label and the name of the setting.

could I ask what you used to zip the file as winrar couldnt open it.

.xys is the official extension for script files, therefore no compression applied...

I created the file with 7zip i guess. You can download it from sourceforge.net or just ask google...

This script is ages old and does not use new scripting-features like real loops... I'am also not sure if it works anymore with the newest XY version.
Bascially the Script is a INI-Reader and Manager, The part of creating a menu is the simplest one.

I've created a INIManager-Script wich is more powerfull in managing entries of ini-files than this script. It can also be called by other scripts and therefore integrated. I personally use this technic in a lot of scripts.

I haven't had the time to maintain this script or to puplish my other scripts here.

Maybe this Weekend I can look for the compatibiliy of the script and also post a few other scripts.
