This program will count the number of lines, characters, etc, of a specified list of files in a given folder (and optionally all of its subfolders). I plan to add more statistical data later, such as a list of the "top ten" files, by number of lines. The line counting method is simple: it counts all lines that contain any non-whitespace characters. It also counts the number of pure comment lines (those that start with a ' and contain no code) and displays that number. There are probably better counting algorithms out there but this project is somewhat tailored to the kind of coding I do. Among other things, this module also demonstrates how to use the Browse For Folder dialog (Windows API--thanks to Dev Ashish) and the FileSystemObject to recursively search for files. Please vote, as I'm just plain curious :P. --Mark
** Please comment and vote, even if you hate it :) This is a relatively simple class for reading from and writing to the ID3 tags in MP3 files. For those who don't know, the ID3 tag stores the information describing the contents of the MP3--that is, title, artist, track number, etc. I've included a list of every defined genre as an enumeration and provided a function to go from the enumeration to a textual description and visa-versa. Another nice little helper function allows you to rename the file based on a dynamic "style" that can include any of the ID3 fields. Note, however, that it only works with MP3's using the ID3 version 1 tag. Most of them (i think) do. The newer version 2 tag lets you store more information. One final thing: I have tested this alot, and I'm sure that the reading functionality works without doing any damage to your MP3's. However, I am very new to MP3's so I really can't guarantee that the writing functions are safe. I tested them on my own files and it seemed all right, but if you're going to use the writeTag method, I have to express caution. Perhaps it would be a good idea to make copies of some of your MP3's to test it on first. :) **Please vote!** -Mark
Removed bug causing small menus to be displayed off-center. This is a .NET component written in C# that allows you to place an animated "circular menu" within your applications. This type of menu is a popup menu designed myself and a group of interface engineers to be more efficient and appealing to end users. This popup menu animates its icons circularly around the click position, ensuring that the user moves the same distance to any desired option. Enclosed within this package are the library projects (C#), two tutorial projects (VB.NET and C#), a Word tutorial, a quick HTML tutorial, an installer project, a compiled help file and a PDF help file. NOTE: The documentation was created with NDoc, which you can find at http://ndoc.sourceforge.net/; the PDF documentation was generated with NDoc and Miktex, and their implementation is apparently buggy. As a result, all cross-reference links in the PDF did not show up. Also note: PSC removed an EXE file required for the installer project to compile. This EXE file, H2reg.exe and its accompanying .INI file, allow the installer to register the Circular Menu help files with Visual Studio. They are recommended by NDoc as explained on this page: http://ndoc.sourceforge.net/content/vsnet-deploying.htm
This simple program compares the file contents of two folders for similarity. It checks the latest write time, file size, and if both of those are the same, it generates a quick checkum (by adding every 100th byte) and compares that. All files are color-coded so you can see at a glance the difference between the folders. You can change the color-coding scheme by double-clicking the colors for any item in the top part of the legend. NOTE: I've left the binaries out of the zip file, so you'll have to compile yourself. Hope you enjoy, and please remember to vote (I'm just curious!) -Mark
