And then, and only then will I fix this hunk I crap I made. oh yeah, thats a very nice idea as far as manipulationg all the strings, I will make millions of or arrays and sub arrrays and arrays of arrays, I am gonna split them things like it were string cheese, then I offer this as a useful somthing to the group here, cus no one really wants a job handed to em have done

Hacking <> Cracking |
Interesting sig, IU, but I find your definition somewhat lacking. The Wikipedia jargon file definition does it justice:
| Wikipedia wrote: | hacker n. [originally, someone who makes furniture with an axe]
- A person who enjoys exploring the details of programmable systems and how to stretch their capabilities, as opposed to most users, who prefer to learn only the minimum necessary.
- One who programs enthusiastically (even obsessively) or who enjoys programming rather than just theorizing about programming.
- A person capable of appreciating hack value.
- A person who is good at programming quickly.
- An expert at a particular program, or one who frequently does work using it or on it; as in "a Unix hacker". (Definitions 1 through 5 are correlated, and people who fit them congregate.)
- An expert or enthusiast of any kind. One might be an astronomy hacker, for example.
- One who enjoys the intellectual challenge of creatively overcoming or circumventing limitations.
- [deprecated] A malicious meddler who tries to discover sensitive information by poking around. Hence "password hacker", "network hacker". The correct term for this sense is cracker.
|
I do understand you were just being clever, though. At my old high school I was referred to as a "hacker" and I had to clear up this definition to the teachers more than once. |

I was known as the hacker in school to, infact I was accused of crashing three Labs as school, and all I did was steal everylast mouse ball in the school, I was never malicious...except for that. besides it takes little brain to damage a good sys, just start renaming files all over the place or delete a few that look tasty. being productive takes more brains, and creativity
[OPINION]
Oh yeah, my sis blamed me for 400 something bucks missing from her bank acct after I have been on her pc. Like where the hell would I put that money, I dont do digital cash, I dont even have a bank accout. that was about 3 yrs ago and she is still mad at me, my god. ok ok I am done.
btw anymore suggestions for the MemoryKeep before I get too far with 2.0?
EDIT: oh yeah, is that definition > 255 chars? if it were less I would make it my sig _________________ my lame sig  |

one short question.
Is there some kind of system variable or environment variable that holds the actual systemtime like e.g %System Time%. A Variable that takes the actual date and time from the windows clock in the lower right systray?
Then I could possibly use this variable for "dateofcreation". |

I studied the script already a little bit. That's why I have a question at the moment. It's about the naming of the control elements.
In the MKTips Script:
You retrieve the name of a GUI Element under the Mouse Cursor with MouseGetPos and save the name to ControlUnder. With the help of "Window Spy" I can also see where the names of the elements come from. But what I don't understand is, who or what gave the names to the GUI Elements. I haven't seen any definition that declares an edit field as "Edit1".
So my question is who or what gives the names to GUI elements?
Can I affect the naming of GUI elements?
Will I always have to use Window Spy to learn about the names of the elements or is there any rule?
Thanks for any help. |

| The naming of controls in any type of window is quite logical: the name of the control, and the instance number. The name is usually something concise but descriptive, like Edit or SysListView32. The instance number is the order it was created in the window; that is, the first edit control will be Edit1 (in many applications Edit1 is the "main" one), the second will be Edit2, and so on. The first list view control will be SysListView321, the second SysListView322, etc. Does that make sense? |

makes sense. Thanks
But who gave the name "edit" to the edit field or in other words where can I find a list, that quotes all names of elements that can occur? |

AGU would you like a time stamp of when each task was created as well as a time stamp for when its complete? any other features? _________________ my lame sig  |

I just wanted a time stamp for creation. I'm just too lazy to insert a date of creation manually. But maybe a date of completion is a good idea. For later issues like looking in archive to see when a task is completed.
Ohh I could imagine so much other features. But that would all be for later when the basic app is ready. But to mention one.
- Some kind of calendar GUI that lets you choose the deadline with a mouseclick.
Concerning the GUI I thought of just one simple big listbox that is filled with the entries dynamically. This means:
-I start the app;
-A loop collects all entries starting with "N" ("N" for now)
-Listbox is filled with the result of the Loop. A sample entry like | Code: | | N|mow the lawn|timestamp|... |
-Clicking on Archive fills the same listbox with all archive entries dynamically. And so on.
It's all a very raw concept. Haven't thought 'bout the details yet. But your script gave me some ideas. So thanks again for this. A good way to study my possibilities. |

hmmm heres another idea, scince mine asks for the completion due date, and time stamps whens its marked completed, it wouldnt be to hard to compare those two dates and see if it was completed on time or behind schedule. _________________ my lame sig  |
