  1. If you have so many lists, and resizing the dialog does not suffice, wouldn't it suit you better to have an alternative view mode like "details" instead of "tile view"? Yes this would suit me too.
  2. A simple progress indicator for updates would be nice IMO ... 10%' date=' 20%, 30% will do ...[/quote'] I will explain a little: 1st - Since i want to see if any errors occur i have to always manually expand the dialog via this button.Alternate behaviour would be to expand the dialog when warning occurs(yellow) or error occurs(red).This would be user customizeable.So if nothing goes wrong then a simple progress indicator will suffice. 2nd - There are custom install groups that i use more often then others so i always have to scroll to bottom since new groups are added to the bottom while default ones are sorted alphabeticly. 3rd - This is purely for custom install order.I think this and the reason why was mentioned before in here somewhere. 4th - When something goes wrong an you want to make a quick forum post(yes thats me lol) then it could come handy.I am aware that you can copy to clipboard from log but my log output is 200+KB so it's not so straightforward to search the entire install sequence there and pice it together. Resizeability i wanted because more often than not messages are hidden by box border. EDIT: By the way some of my downloads stopped working and at first i was at loss as to wth is going on.Added referer to all - this fixed some of them.Then on a hunch added my Firefox useragent and voila.Everything works again.Funny that these downloads worked fine before and i needed to add UA shortly after this option was added to Ketarin
  3. Hope it's not to late to input some recommendations for Beta? - When only one application exists and is removed then Ketarin shows text "Loading applications..." instead of "No applications have been added yet.".A Ketarin restart is required to show correct info. - The "Installing Applications" dialog box is not resizeable yet is maximizeable which is odd. - Automatically expand "Show details" in "Installing Applications" dialog box.Leave option to manually hide details if the users wants or use some setting to remember user choice and always use that view. - Allow repositioning of install groups(up/down). - Allow repositioning of apps inside an install group(up/down) - Add option "copy to clipboard" in "Installing Applications" dialog box. So as you can see most of my issues are with the behaviour of the "Installing Applications" dialog box.
  4. Was fast for me before so i don't notice any difference really.
  5. Hmm i didnt know that Still i dont use {version} .I use my custom variable to display version numbers so i guess that's why it does not show any version regardless of beta/avoid.
  6. Currently it has 3 columns: Application name;Last updated;Uses Would be even better if we could sort by Category,FileHippoID,WebsiteUrl,Url and maybe even by some category i can't think of now.
  7. So this i what i use currently: {prettyversion:multireplace:,:/,-,_,(,),b,c,f,g,h,j,k,m,o,q,s,w,y,x,z,January,February,March,April,May,June,July,August,September,October,November,December:.,.,.,,,B,C,F,G,H,J,K,M,O,Q,S,W,Y,X,Z,01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10,11,12}
  8. Just an update.As of Ketarin 1.5 Alpha the app settings window is resizeable. Only the settings window is not yet resizeable and Settings-Commands does not have option to open in editor(although if window were resizeable then there would not be much need for it).
  9. Vista has 3.0 integrated and enabled by default. Win7 has 3.5 integrated and enabled by default. So users don't really have to install anything in those platforms at least. And i suspect when Windows 7 SP1 comes early next year it could have .NET 4.0 integrated and enabled by default.
  10. The biggest i have seen for me is 2MB or so but then again most of my downloads are fairly simple and only a handful involve regex.This is likely to change over time as i learn regex myself and add more redundancy to existing downloads. Currently i have 147 apps including programs,sevaral drivers and about 30 Firefox addons. I recently did a export-import of the database so currently it sits at a very slim 191KB What i would like to see in future Ketarin version is the ability to change the number and location of database backups.Currently i use my system wide backup batch file to backup stuff into SFX exe: rar u -dh -ed -ep1 -m0 -os -ow -o+ -r -y "D:\Windows 7\App Settings\Ketarin.exe" "C:\Users\Tomorrow\AppData\Roaming\Ketarin\*"
  11. Ideed they use cookie for filter but there is currently no way to tell that to the variable because URL is same. If they would append NOBETA=1 to url like this: http://www.filehippo.com/download_utorrent&NOBETA=1 then it would be so much easyier. Anyway thank you so much again CybTekSol for these regex codes.I tried and both seem working just fine now .If anything brakes due to some webpage changes i will let u know. Btw u have 666 posts
  12. No the downloads are just fine and i always get latest stable version downloded for these two apps.Even when hovering over the downloaded file the windows tooltip shows that it's the stable version.Yet due to the issue mentioned at the top it simply has a Beta version number. Maybe you misunderstand?.The download is fine.I use the start/end thing in Variables {version} to capture the latest version number and give it to the saved file. I need to switch from regular start/end to regex to test these.I recon adding the regex strings and choosing force download should do fine. Yes this would be the preferred way.
  13. So the problem is that they have a section called: Latest Version ProgramName Version I can set the start and end and it correctly gets the version from there. Problem occurs when i always download only stable version of that program from filehippo(avoid beta). I that case the downloaded file is given a beta version number because filehippo has changed the content between my start/end tags. Specificly there are 2 programs where this happens for me: uTorrent: http://www.filehippo.com/download_utorrent/ Flash Non-IE: http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_firefox/ Im thinking maybe uTorrent can be done with regex because the stable builds are marked as: uTorrent x.x.x Build xxxxx while beta builds are: uTorrent x.x.x Beta xxxxx So maybe find first occurence of the word "Build" from website and then include 6 characters in front of it,the word "Build" itself and 6 characters from end. With flash it could be similar albeit more difficult because the number of numbers in version number does not seem consistant between versions.Stable versions are: Flash Player xx.x.xx.xx (Non-IE) while beta/RC versions are: Flash Player xx.x.xxx.xx Beta (Non-IE) or Flash Player xx.x.xxx.xx RC 1 (Non-IE) Still i don't know how to go about finding the stable version number based on these. If anyone has any ideas i would be grateful. For utorrent i currently use this forum topic to get the version number: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=82840 However this falls out of sync when 2.0.5 comes and i have to do a manual change again.
  14. I see.I use Filehippo for Java but Sun website certanly has more downloads so i can understand why someone would use it. How did Ketarin appear until this?.Did it use some generic UA?
  15. The install button is misaligned only if i enable status bar.If not then it's exactly where it should be. This happens with empty/fresh jobs.db Btw:Totally love that app window is now resizeable.Thank you for implementing this EDIT2: Moving beta versions to first tab in app window seems more logical indeed. Wondering about specifying user agents - where could this be useful?.I can almost remember but not quite. EDIT3: Help-About still shows version number as 1.1.4.344 for me.
  16. Well the problem is that when you update ketarin trough regular download like other apps and add some command to unzip then how on earth are you supposed to update it while it is running? Ketarin restart would be required.So i think this should be the last command to do so it would not interfere with other downloads.
  17. Installed.Looks good. Thank you.
  18. Hmm intresting question.Still why would you want ":"? Is it for download link,appname or something else? Just a crazy but maybe try: {download:multireplace:,:%2F,%3A:/,":"} or {download:multireplace:,:%2F,%3A:/,::}
  19. Small feature request actually - add option to mark all subforums and threads as read.Maybe add this option to index page? ( http://ketarin.canneverbe.com/forum/index.php ) Currently i have to go separately to each 5 subforums to mark them as read. Though this might be limitation of PunBB that this forum runs.
  20. Thanks.Not in hurry but if it get's done someday i'll be a happy camper
  21. Good that i use Windows 7 then.Windows 7 has a feature called Aero Snap that allows you to throw window to either right or left side of the screen and there the window is automatically resized to 50% of the screensize. This allows to run Ketarin at one side and show the log window at the other.Both take equally 50% of screenspace. It's also possible to select option "Show windows stacked"(rightclick on taskbar) if you prefer to show windows on top and bottom(like you described). If you use some other OS then maybe there is a third party program that does something similar.
  22. I assume you won't be moving to a newer .NET because of XP compability? Although XP users should be able to use 3.5 and 4.0 too.
  23. Well you can always use "&&" argument for sequential commands. Tho for me all commands work sequentially despite the fact that i have not specified && between commands.Odd.
