@Groups: You might want all Opera packages, others might not want them. In particular, it would never work for the online database, since most users submit "unpolished" data (as you have probably noticed, duplicate application names and the like). @RegExp: You can already do that I'd say. If you use () within a regular expression, Ketarin will use the value matched within these. If you do not use any (), it will use the full matched value. @SHA1/MD5: They should not be part of the online database (if that is what you mean), because they could be faked on the client side when submitting the applications. My suggestion would be to implement special variables. Say, if you define a custom variable called "md5", Ketarin will compare the value of the variable and the actual value of the file. The same goes for "sha1".

I doubt that all your requests will make it into 1.0. In particular, I don't see a need for this grop thing. Could you explaon the last two a bit more? So far I'd say that there already is a fully functional Regex engine. What would I do with SHA1/MD5 signatures?

Unforunately, it is not easy to create this project file in an auotmated way, since some sources come from (as you probably figured out) from CDBurnerXP. I updated the package now with the clipboard thing included.

You need to link all files in the CDBurnerXP folder into the project before compiling.

I'll add trimstart and trimend, both with and without parameters. The Realtek servers suck. They are even too slow for actually testing whether or not there is a problem I'd suggest to find some better servers instead.

Ops, didn't I post a link!? http://ketarin.canneverbe.com/downloads/Ketarin/Ketarin-0.9.9.19a.zip

Could some of you maybe do some testing regarding the variable functions? Currently, I implemented replace as mentioned above, tolower, toupper and trim. Maybe you have more useful suggestions?

I guess you won't give up...just make sure that you throughly test the upcoming version :-p

No, you are not supposed to do anything differently. I just wanted to figure out whether or not a feature like "Use variable X as change indicator" would help.

Well, if you have a version variable for example, it could serve as indicator.

Maybe using a variable as change indicator could be helpful?

It's somewhat complicated to make a difference there.

You could either add an additional " " or an additional "&", depending on what you intend.

Not yet, there's too much to do already

An & as parameter does not matter. It only matters if it is the very last character.

I'd like to avoid that, because it'll get you in (performance) trouble if the variables need to be downloaded

I'll add 1) for the next version, but the second suggestion sounds a bit too complicated (for now). Thanks for your feedback BTW, nice to see a namesake once in a while ^^

I mean that if you add an & at the end, it will *not* wait for the process to finish.

...is now on Ohloh: https://www.ohloh.net/p/ketarin/commits

Ketarin waits until xplorer2_UC.exe has closed. I'll add a new option for the next release: If you add an & to the end of the command, it will execute in background (UNIX-like).

I guess that such a syntax is just too much for Ketarin. It needs to be very simple. Maybe something like {varname:replace:_:}

Happy new year to everyone and thanks for all your kind feedback!

Actually, the yellow one means "new" or "update found". It's this kind of "new" star you also find in icons like "New folder" or "New file". Green means that it is already up-to-date. Otherwise you couldn't see which applications were actually downloaded after the whole process is done.

It's C#.

Thanks for the nice comment! Regarding the version: In your case, you could try scraping it using regular expressions instead of start/end. Another approch is to provide a functionality for string replacement within variables, I'd just need to find some nice syntax.
