Yeah, aside from the fact that the user has to manually move the Ini file then it's a good idea. I think I'll go with that. :) (It's actually similar to what I did with Micro DVD Player.)

Where does your plugin create the default Ini if it cannot find one in all 4 places? I guess in the wincmd-ini-directory?

Thanks!

To everyone with this problem: I fixed that (was a remainder from when the first entry in the device list was the ISO WRITER, thus not requiring speed query). Re-download the package, should work now.
Yes, it works correctly now. Thanks.

You are free to integrate this functionality into the plugin configuration interface. I haven't found time to add this to my plugin.

No it's created in the directory where Wincmd.ini is located.

Yeah well, as I wrote, I have some other projects running too, so the forum is not only meant for the TC plugin. Let's see what happens, I can still make changes later. E.g. I'm also planning to "hire" some beta testers for the plugin, and discussion among them and me shouldn't need to take place in this forum. :)
In the licence text we can read: "In commercial or other environments it may be used only with express permission of the developer." What does it exactly mean?
It's supposed to mean that you may only use it for your private purposes, but not to use it somewhere where you make profit with it - directly or indirectly. Say a company that offers mass-copying CDs or similar may not use it. But if you want to use it at your workplace to copy some of your own CDs that's okay. (Damn legal stuffs... :) ) I put this phrase mainly so that people don't make profit with a freeware tool.
If I accidentally try to copy a folder with a lot of files to "** Project: ISO/CUE Image" I get an info that the file is not a valid .iso file. Unfortunately I get this info many times. It's very annoying.
Okay, fixed that. Behaviour is now that in case of such an error, the return value FS_FILE_USERABORT will be issued, that behaves as if you clicked Cancel in the copy progress window.
When I tried to chnge the volume label for the first time I tried to put the name of the volume inside the brackets Try to do it.


Yeah well you're supposed to put ONLY the desired new name in the new file name, nothing else. :) The behaviour you experience happens because all characters but A-Z, 0-9 and _ will be stripped.But I'll change that so that if [ ] are present only the string inbetween will be used.

Why the volumn label is common for all projects? It should be separate for every one.


Goes on ToDo. :)

What if I'd like to use it for company purposes, eg. for making backup of my business data from my disc? It's not possible at all or I have to pay for it?

Another suggestion:
If I want to create .iso file and if a file with the same name already exists on the disk the plugin overwrites it without any warning. Could you add confirmation question if to replace the existing file?

When you want to burn project you get the last window: "Burn media". There is a label on it: "Powered by Foxburner SDK". It looks like the link (even coursor changes if you put a mouse over it) but it doesn't seem to work.
Yikes. :) That label was on the burn progress dialog before. Moved the label to the burn settings, but forgot the click event procedure. :)

TCmd uses such jokers in a button with cd-command to realize filters e.g. command "cd c:\data\text\*.txt" changes to the proper directory shows txt-files only. So the asterisk-mark for pseudo files/directories conflict with this TCmd-feature.
Loc2262 wrote: Mmm-kay, I'll see to it that I change the Project directory names so they don't conflict. The commands like Burn, Clear Project etc. should stay with asterisks, so that they don't conflict with possible files of those names you might wish to add to your project.
Well, this is the reason that led me to ask about Dynamic toolbars controlled by plugin authors. This way, Loc2262 could avoid showing asterisks.

Will need to think about that. I'd say if you use it for your private "fun", it's free, but if you use it as part of your work processes, your company should pay some for it.

Done. Some "ofOverwritePrompt" flag was missing there. :)

Hmm, I don't really see what the one has to do with the other? The "copy" and "delete" commands sure needs to be there, and I wanted to e.g. make sure noone tries to copy a file to a project that has the same name as one of the command pseudo-files.

Loc2262,
Thanks also from my side. :)

Concerning the ** Project Size: [89 files, 651.087.093 bytes], could you please show the size in the Size field? Because with extensions aligned (with Tab) the 093 bytes part is in the extension column and doesn't look good.

And another problem - a DVD+RW always shows up as having exactly 1.36 MB free space, no matter if completely clean, erased, new, or fully burned. Therefore I (and some others, according to http://www.cdr.cz ) cannot burn DVD+RWs using your plugin.

TIA
Roman
