GeneralProject Progress Update II [modified]memberZac Greve31 Dec '12 - 7:44 
First off: HAPPY NEW YEAR!
 
With that out of the way: I am still working on my Windows 7 Rich Text Editor, and I think I will be able to release it in a couple of weeks, if VS will cooperate with me. Most of the functionality is in place, and I am working on the English translation for the application. When I get it online, I will need help translating it to other languages.
 
The AddIns I am going to create/have created are:
 
* Additonal Toolbar Themes (Office 2007/2010 and Vista) (Already functional)
* A Scripting Environment (IronPython with support for VB and C# using Roslyn)
* A Web Browser (WebKit (Chromium), Gecko (GeckoFX), and Trident (The built in web browser control), with the default being WebKit)
* A PDF Viewer
* An Automatic Updater (Eventually)
* Cloud Upload/Download (e.g. SkyDrive, DropBox, etc)
* File Compressor (using SevenZipSharp)
* FTP Upload/Download (Eventually)
 
Another idea I had is to make the main window use a docking system instead of a generic tab control. What is your input on that? And any other AddIn ideas? This is a Windows Forms application, but I will take ideas that use WPF as well.
 
I also think I will post an entry on the blog on my profile page soon as well.
 
Entry Posted[^].
 
All further discussion should take place there.

A Very Joyous New Year to You and Your Families !
 
I will be in 2013 in only 4 hours and 38 minutes: if anything looks 'wrong,' I'll get back to you asap.
 
yrs, Bill

    “A human being is part of a whole, called by us the 'Universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts
       and feelings, as something separated from the rest ... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.

     This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires, and to affection for a few persons nearest us

    Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures, and the whole
     of nature in its beauty.

I'm glad we sent you ahead.
 
Let the rest of us know if it's safe or that we'd be better off remaining in 2012.

Come off it Bill.
 
We all know the 'Real' time is GMT, so it is not the New Year until we here in Blighty say it is!
 
Now I know some of the colonies insist on having their local time, but it is merely an affectation and has nothing to do with the international standard.
 
By Jove, once we remove ourselves from the EU and re-establish the Empire we will insist on GMT being the correct nomenclature once again, and not that highly offensive UTC.

Greece already operates GMT when it comes to paying taxes. Greek Maybe Time.

Meistre David of Dalek,
 
Your island may have lost its former empire, and its delusions of colonial glory, but it has never lost the crown of chronology: time here in S.E. Asia, where I live, is measured as an offset from GMT !
 
Now here, we do not observe "Daylight Savings Time," but that's no slight on Old Blighty: while the creator of DST was born on your island, he grew up in New Zealand, and was an adult, there, when he proposed the idea, after an experience with Maori hallucinogens, so he can certainly be excluded from consideration as a true native sod.
 
Happy revelery !
 
Smile | :)

Sweet! As evidenced by recent events it's obvious that the "experiment" here across the pond has failed. I for one welcome our new yellow toothed overlords and can't wait for the free cradle to grave services.

In return for your allegiance, our first act is to have Piers Morgan released into the wild, just in time for hunting season. Who says we don't know how to please the colonies?
