F4MiniMenu (AHK): F4Menu w. Drag&Drop, filelist, cmdline (XYPlorer, Everything, Explorer, Double Commander)

Yes, XML for the configuration file.
You would like to use INI so you can manually edit it easier?

[hi5]

If you really want to use INI you can download an experimental version here, haven't really tested it but as I focused on loading/saving the object from and to ini only it should probably work - download the zip here and unpack:

https://github.com/hi5/F4MiniMenu/issues/5

Update Feb 15th: If you've downloaded the INI zip file from GitHub I recommend you download it again to fix two issues with reading/writing the INI (parameters and startdir were missing)

Can't compile to exe under Windows 7 x64 SP1 - I get error:

Code: Select all

Error: Call to nonexistent function.
Specifically: XA_Load("F4MiniMenu.xmr')
Line#
— >	036: XA_Load(,'F4MiniMenu.xmГ,)
The program will exit.

Under Win7 x32 SP1 all ok. I use the latest version of ahk and you tool. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

PS. I have tried both versions of F4MiniMenu XMl and INI - still no luck

[hi5]

By the looks of it it seems that the file (F4MiniMenu.ahk) is not correct.

The code should be

Code: Select all

XA_Load("F4MiniMenu.xml")

and you can see in the error it says

Code: Select all

XA_Load("F4MiniMenu.xmr')
XA_Load(,'F4MiniMenu.xmГ,)

so not "F4MiniMenu.xml" but another character at the end.

OR it doesn't include XA.ahk but that would be odd.

Could be an encoding issue of the script file, should be utf-8 with BOM, do you know which version of AutoHotkey you are running?

If you have Notepad++ you can easily change the encoding to say ANSI or remote BOM and see if that helps.

Thanks for suggestions, I'll check today evening (Moscow time) and I'll write you about result. Non compiled - working fine.



AHK version is v1.1.24.00 - May 22, 2016

Now it working.
I have added a lines into the file F4MiniMenu.ahk and it seems that compiled version works fine.

Code: Select all

#include %A_ScriptDir%\lib\class_lv_rows.ahk
#include %A_ScriptDir%\lib\DropFiles.ahk
#include %A_ScriptDir%\lib\GetPos.ahk
#include %A_ScriptDir%\lib\iob.ahk

thanks for reporting the missing XA from the INI version, updated that download here https://github.com/hi5/F4MiniMenu/issues/5
(can't believe I missed that )

Glad to hear it works now

Sorry, it seems you didn't understand me:

Until I added these lines to the file F4MiniMenu.ahk, compiled version did not work. The presence or absence of the file XA.ahk in the distribution of INI version did not change anything. I have compiled without XA.ahk.

That is peculiar, how do you compile? Right click on F4MiniMenu.ahk and then compile or do you use another method.

I just tried the following on win 8.1, 64bit
- I download from here https://github.com/hi5/F4MiniMenu/archive/master.zip (you get that via the "clone or download" button)
- unpacked it to a folder
- Right click on F4MiniMenu.ahk, compile

It compiles with no errors and it works as well.

In principle AHK should automatically see the files in the LIB folder and automatically "include" them - https://autohotkey.com/docs/Functions.htm#lib

Then again adding them specifically can't hurt so I will do so just to avoid future problems. Thanks for reporting it.

[Ovg]

Thank a lot for information!
I use portable version of AHK, and I compile via AHK2EXE ...

[hi5]

That might explain it, thanks.

Edit: v0.83 and the INI zip file version now have the #include lines for the lib files as posted by Ovg above.

Hi! It's me again

Could you please add support wildcards (? and *) in extension settings for editors?

[hi5]

Is this what you mean?

tx? would mean it would open files such as file.txt, file.tx1 in say Notepad

i* would open file.inc, file.ini in akelpad

[Ovg]

2hi5

Yes, you are absolutely right!

[hi5]

I think that should be possible, you can download a test version here - as I only had to amend the main script it is just one file - you just copy it to your F4MiniMenu folder and start it (be sure to close F4MiniMenu if you have it running first) - info & test download here:
