Graphical Apps
I'm not usually one to write so many apps that do graphical tricks, but it seems to be a trend lately with my coding. I think it's because of the wonderful documentation of the WinAPI on www.pinvoke.net. Does anyone know if there is a high quality complete .NET wrapper for the WinAPI? I thought I've stumbled accross some projects out there. Let me know...
So tonight I piss off the linux users by writing another app using the WinAPI, plus I piss off the Mac users by writing an app that mimics something they have built into OS X. Sorry guys, please forgive me.
Check out Jedi Concentrate on the download blog!

Only been out for a few hours but heres the first mod:
JediConcentrate with options. It allows you to set the opacity of the background and the speed of the fade. Get it here:

Hey... Could I post an app request here? I could not find the link to send you one. Anyway, I'd love an app that could transform those clunky M$ graphs and charts and make em more snazzy. Perhaps a customizable console, coloured gradien t, borders, framings?
Is that possible?
Thanks for your work!!
Hi,
Was having this idea for quite some time now. But donno whether it is feasible or not. I want to write a web app using AJAX to mimick the functionality of 'Remote Desktop Connection'. This will enable me to connect to my office or home pc from any computer running on any OS without having to install any software. Hoping to hear from you. Thanks in advance.
Hey, Great Work. Awesome Idea's!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, I dont know if this helps you but here is a pretty good, yet overly obscured Windows API Overview . . . Although, for your purposes i doubt it will help . . .

Tell me if that helps at ALL!! =D

If I remember correctly the j# libraries ( java.ms ) contain a .net wrapper for the w32 api. Although that was in .net 1.1, so it could have changed.

Can't find your email so I'll put the simple app suggestion here :
An app that you load an mp3 into and allows you to select and preview a part of the audio save that as an mp3.
Basically a simple visual app to quickly make a ringtone from a mp3 file.
hey dana
nice thing going on here. please could you put and "alt tab" popup (thingy) on the icons in the system tray.
thanks
scott
I thought the concentrate app was very cool... what about if you have it on whatever window your own automatically goes bright as the background dims?
I also have an idea for your next one... MP3 startup music for windows! heh
Hmmmm... the comments appear to be loading a bit strange, and not for the post I'm trying to comment on. Check this MSDN article that tells you how you can use p/invoke as extern methods. Check it out.

just a thougt for a small app: a 'popup message balloon' which appears just above the system tray, invoked on the command line.
easy for usage in applications, when you want to notify the user of 'someting'. loads of apps have options like 'start this-or-that-application when [action]'.
i'd love you for it.
I tried posting this earlier, but it didn't show up.
Idea: a web browser within a web site. Lets you navigate to a website, and within that website is a mini-browser that lets you navigate to another website. Sort of like a proxy, but you don't have to configure the client you are using for proxy use.
I get an error running jediconcentrate (only tried it as a limited user so far, I always run as limited user for security).
Application error
"the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the application.
Do these apps require .Net to be installed? 1.1? 2.0? either?
App Request:
Could you make an app that ACTUALLY does what Expose does? Jedi Concentrate is certainly cool, but it's nothing like expose...

There are a ton of Expose clones for Windows already. The 3 best are entbloess, winplosion and topdesk.
joe,
you could alternatively run iis on your home machine, and set it up to display a page which is blocked at your works pc's and then simply connect to http://youripaddresshere and you will get access to that website you need... ;)Better yet you could write a simple html page to open the site with a frame from your own address included in it. This would be enough to allow you to get through most ''works'' firewalls (i.e. your employer :P - i was just assuming this is what you needed it for)
regs... chris
