Services2 - File-system plugin to list and manage services

[Fla$her]

Before I can even implement it, I'm going to post a longer description of the issues I face to open up a discussion on how to implement it.

It's good at least that there is hope. Will this discussion be in a separate thread?

I think you can understand that. Maybe you can add one of them to your vast TC plugin collection once I publish them .

Sure I can. It's not excluded. )

Well, after testing a preliminary implementation (and that of the other plugin you mentioned), I find such feature useful. So, as long as it's feasible to implement, I'm going to do that.

Will this discussion be in a separate thread?

Probably not. Don't worry, you won't miss it.

OK. Good news.

[Fla$her]

It's been 2 years and 3 months. I would like to finally get some kind of solution.

[Dalai]

Please be patient. I will post that description eventually. I've written it down already (not finalized yet), but as soon as I post it I need time to think about what people say - and that's something I'm currently short on. Not giving any feedback to user's thoughts, or taking months to do so, isn't something I'm keen to do. I hate it when other people don't react to bug reports I give them so I won't do the same the other way around.

Do you understand how strange this sounds to me when the consideration has been going on for more than two years?

What do you mean? Have you addressed bugs to anyone? Privately? Or is there a public link?

I don't see strangeness here. I've given feedback on your suggestion, considered it useful (and still do), but I also said that I've been facing issues regarding the implementation and I'm going to open a discussions about these.

I understand that it might be frustrating for you not having seen any progress. But as I said a couple of posts back: If it was simple I would've implemented it a long time ago.

I've given numerous bug reports and suggestions to various software projects over the years, and in some cases the author(s) didn't react in any way for some amount of time, or even never in two or three cases. That is something really frustrating and annoying.

It looks strange, if only because you started talking about starting a discussion a year ago.

I understand that it might be frustrating for you not having seen any progress. But as I said a couple of posts back: If it was simple I would've implemented it a long time ago.

I understand. But we are not eternal, and time flies. 2 years is a term.

The attitude to this is clear, but does it have a direct bearing on our situation?

I not see external tools.

[Dalai]

I not see external tools.

External tools need to be defined by the user in the plugin's settings file. Did you do that?

[Hurdet]

[Services2.Tools]
ShowIcons=1
;--- AutoDetectArch=1
;AutoDetectArch=0
1_Name=Google service name
1_WWW=http://www.google.com/search?q={SvcName}
2_Name=DuckDuckGo executable name
2_WWW=https://duckduckgo.com/?q={FileNameOnly}
3_File=%ProgramFiles%\HxD\HxD.exe
3_Params=""{FileName}""

where I see it?

[Dalai]

External tools are available via the [>>] button in the service properties dialog which can be called by pressing Alt+Enter, Enter or double-click.

Well, so nothing was achieved in 3.5 years? Or is there at least some progress?
