+ Scripting got a new function.
Name: Font
Nice addition. You added the capability to use a fixed font for SC inputselect a while back which was great. Now we can change to a fixed font for a menu similar to this below yet change the font back to a proportional font when ending the script. Quite nice! :tup: :appl:

Code: Select all

  +++ Scripting: Started adding arrays. It already seems to be working at a basic level:
        $a[2]="cat"; $b=1; echo $a[$b+$b]; //cat
    + Scripting | Arrays: Now associative arrays are supported. The named keys have to be 
      put in single quotes:
        $a['pussy']="cat"; $b="pussy"; echo $a[$b]; //cat
        
Smth Revolutionary is coming! :ninja: I hope there will come a command to easily take INI file/section and convert into associative array.

Code: Select all

    * SC WriteFile: Added two parameters to control the position and length of the data 
      written to the file.
      Syntax: writefile(filename, data, [on_exist], [mode], [start=1], [numbytes=-1])
        start:  Start writing at this byte position.
                Defaults to 1 which is the very beginning.
                Note: Writing here is always overwriting, not inserting!
        numbytes: Write this number of bytes.
                  Defaults to -1 which means: write everything passed in the data argument.
      Example:
        writefile(, "abc", , , 3, 2); //writes "ab" at pos 3 to the currently selected file
Now one can be a master of hiding own info by "adding" it to other files. :twisted:

    + File Info Tips and Hover Box: Now you can specify a "Hover Blacklist" containing any 
      number of target paths to be excluded from the File Info Tips and Hover Box, i.e. 
      excluded from file access on mouse hover. Usually you want to exclude slow paths, 
      e.g. cloud folders.
Didn't track who wished for that, but will be useful.

in the past, I've attributed the initial lag in accessing an external (large) drive to hardware or os issues. After this last release (23.80.0304) my system is suddenly much "zippier" - so you get the Thanks.

Code: Select all

    + SC inputselect enhanced: Now you can pre-check all checkboxes.
      Syntax: inputselect(header, listdata, [separator="|"], [style=1], [cancel], _
              [width=800], [height=400], [windowcaption], [preselect], [icon])
        style: 
             2 = Show checkboxes; prefix items with "+" to pre-check them.
         32768 = Pre-check all checkboxes.
      Examples:
        text inputselect("Select Food", "Soup|Cheese|+Cake",, 2); //Cake pre-checked
        text inputselect("Select Food", "Soup|Cheese|+Cake",, 2+32768); //all pre-checked

Just for the record, Virtual Folders and Event Sounds have been a real game changer for me. I work a lot faster and have a lot more fun doing it.
