- Alarm Clock
From time to time, you may find the need for a simple alarm clock...either to wake you up or to get your attention at a specific time of day. This one is very simple, just select the time when you want the alarm to go off, and press the Set
button. When that time arrives, the Alarm Clock window will come to the front of all other windows on your screen and a beeping sound will be heard. Enjoy!
- Data Driven Width O' Sizer
When designing software, it is often necessary to display data. The data, of course, may be of a variety of lengths (e.g., Utah
contains 4 characters while West Virginia
contains 13 characters). Because the length of data varies, it is difficult to determine beforehand the appropriate width of the control that will display the data. This issue is further compounded if the data is to be displayed in a variable width font. With these issues in mind, Data Driven Width O' Sizer was created. Essentially, Data Driven Width O' Sizer reads data from a text file and determines the width that a control would have to be in order to display the data in a specific font.
- FileConcatenator
Concatenating multiple files into a single file can be a tedious task, especially if the files reside in different directories. FileConcatenator is a powerful GUI utility that provides the ability to quickly concatenate multiple files.
- FileRename
Renaming files is a simple process. But, the task can become arduous if you have numerous files to rename. Using the DOS REN
statement, the process may be simplified by renaming all of the files in a directory. However, if you need to rename files in all sub-directories, you must repeat the REN
statement in each folder. FileRename provides the ability to recursively rename files in all sub-folders.
- FileSplitter
This programs splits text files into separate files based on either (a) the number of lines in each resulting file or (b) the size of the resulting file in kilobytes. There is also an option to write the first line of the file to each resulting file. It keeps lines intact. That is, it splits files between lines, not within lines. Yes, I created this program specifically so I could easily split up files to load into OSCommerce using EasyPopulate.
- RAT (Randomize And Test)
The design of experiments often requires the randomizing of subjects across conditions or the randomization of the order in which conditions are presented to a given subject. Accomplishing this task entails consulting a random number table, drawing numbers from a hat, or some other tedious method. Using a computer program to automate this task could save time. With this objective in mind, the program, RAT (Randomize And Test), was written to randomize the presentation of conditions to subjects.
- Simple Usability Test Logger
Simple Usability Test Logger was created to provide a simple logging tool for usability tests. To this end, it is easy to learn and use the logger. Log data is saved in CSV (Comma Separated Values) format and may be easily imported into spreadsheet applications.
- TextReplace
Finding and replacing text within multiple files can be a tedious task. Often, the find and replace process must be repeated within each file. TextReplace is a powerful utility that provides the ability to quickly find and replace text in multiple files simultaneously.
