If you frequent my site, you'll notice that I
update it and the projects I create quite a bit. Due to size and
scope, updates are scattered all around. This listing serves as a
quick reference for those who only want to look at the newest changes.
By default, the latest 15 updates are listed below (with links to the
changed or added content). If you are looking for a specific area of the
site, use the search field above or use the site nav links in the top
right and bottom right of the page. Area specific links are typically on the
left side
[ /sean/code/hotrkeyz ] :: Rewrite and new version 2.0. Now includes an active key capture dialog and uses key names (Ctrl, Alt, Win, Shift) instead of code characters (#$^!). Will not work with v.1 combos as the subfolder naming is different. You will need to recreate your Hotrkeyz combos and copy the program links from your old v.1 combo folders into the new v.2 combo folders. Documentation has been updated with new operations and screeenshots.

[ /sean/code/hotrkeyz ] :: Rev to v.1.06. Added a 'first run' dialog that explains basic usage of Hotrkeyz. This dialog then goes silent on future executions. Documentation updated to include screenshot of dialog. Added some additional FAQ entries as well.

[ /sean/code ] :: In an effort to give me more flexibility on file locations, I've modified all projects to route web calls for updates to '[project dir]/updates.html' which will redirect to the appropriate CATS call and location of the update files. This allows me to move updates in the future without having to modify code and recompile. Additionally, the same has been done for support calls. These now all go to '[project dir]/support.html' to be redirected. Any project that had a 'donate' link in it has had this removed. All projects that use these calls have been updated and recompiled.

[ /sean/code/ezpcdets ] :: Code and documentation changes. Rev to v.2.20. Hovering over the EzpcDets Systray icon will display LAN1 & WAN address info. Clicking on the Systray icon will display 3 lines: "[Domain] / Computername / Username / os ver and sp ver" on line 1, "Sysdrive free and total" on line 2, and "Sysmem load % and total" on line 3. Binaries are updated. Documentation is updated to include updated screenshots.

[ /updates ] :: Moved '/sean/updates' to '/updates' (a higher level to act as "catch all" for site-wide updates). Sub area searches can be done thru the search field at the top of the page. Access to updated areas can be done via the included link located at the front of each update post. Direct calls to 'shrum.net/sean/updates' will automatically redirect to the new location and will automatically filter on just '/sean' (sub)area updates. Some update calls from my apps and utilities (if present) will fail but ultimately, all homepage links will continue to work and links to area specific updates will work from there. Code has been updated but binaries should be built to incorporate the new site layout.

[ /sean/code/orphaned ] :: Code and documentation uploaded. Click the link to get more info on this utility for locating orphaned files in a backup.
[

[ /sean/code/orphaned ] :: Creating a new app for locating/segregating orphaned files in a backup. These are files that no longer match up to the source locations in active use either because the source file was renamed, moved, or deleted. When such file is found it is copied (maybe moved later) to a subfolder. This allows users with years of backed up files to create a folder of only orphaned files. It's in development and I'll give it the production treatment, complete with command line enabling and dialog prompting later. Right now I'm testing on my backup.

[ /sean/code/cats ] :: [where] is now a "server side" protected parameter (if user tries to overwrite or NULL the parameter via the query string, it is ignored). This allows webmasters to filter recordsets prior to passing [DATA] to the user to view and start doing searches on. Ultimately, the best place to do filtering is in a plugin but this gives a more flexible option for when it's needed instead of creating multiple plugins that require redundant coding.

[ /sean/code/cats ] :: RECORD2,3,4 parameters are now depreciated and no longer supported. Never used these and really can't see a situation where multiple record templates would be needed. Site documentation updated.
[
edit
]
[ /sean/code/cats ] :: Added sort on CATS [search] operators, gives the following order of operation: - (not include), + (must include), none (or), ^ (case sensitive or), " (phrase or) which allows me to halt additional processing on multi term search strings if NOT or AND conditions are not met first (OR conditions skipped).
[
edit
]
[ /sean/code/cats ] :: Recordnum counter was not respecting actual record number when displayed as part of a [limit] set, was resetting to '1' on page 2, 3, etc. Adding $aRecordset['start'] to $iRecord fixed this.
[
edit
]
[ /sean/code/cats ] :: [in] parameter now handles user defined field(s) selection for [search] and provides more robust filtering options using conditional operators (+/-/"/^). Going forward, the following SQL parameters are deprecated and no longer used with CATS directly (can still be used by plugins): [select], [from], [group], [sql].
[
edit
]
[ /sean/code/cats ] :: Optimization; [search] bails out when conditions do not match user requested terms. This will greatly decrease search times on large data sets. Added '^' for defining a case sensitive search term as all other searches case insensitive (fuzzy). Version rev 4.12.
[

[ /sean/code/cats ] :: Added code to use $aScript['subdomain'] to create cyclical link between 'local.[domainname]' and 'www.[domainname]' to allow for 1 click switching between development server and live server
[
edit
]
[ /sean/code/cats ] :: Sorting tweaks. Sorting was executing in "case sensitive" mode. Capitalized words would appear ahead of lower cased. Inserted "SORT_NATURAL|SORT_FLAG_CASE" into array_multisort() calls to address this issue.

[ /sean ] :: Reverted back to a site splash entry (a 4y word cloud of my blog from many years ago) when using sean.shrum.net or shrum.net/sean URLs versus throwing everyone directly into the updates page. It was laying around so figured I'd use it. Calls to shrum.net and www.shrum.net still get Diana's project site.
[

]
[ /sean/code/cats ] :: Wrote in some [DATA] array testing after performing [WHERE] and [SEARCH] functions to make sure we don't start trying to do array stuff on an empty array which would break things that would normally happen after a valid set of [DATA] was returned. Empty arrays results return an image of a goose egg.

[ /sean ] :: Site ID page change. Note the "wrench" icon preceding the pathname title at the top of the page. Clicking on the wrench on any page generated by my content system will output additional CATS debug info by appending "&debug=y" to the end of every URL here. This lets you see what the script is doing behind the scenes. Plus it gives me an easy 1 click option to toggle into debug mode without having to type it into the URL every time I need it. Moved coding around to optimize speed and allow for function skipping when required parameters are not present.

[ /sean/photos ] :: Got around to creating an area to showcase my CATS web server script ability to generate navigable photo albums. Plus it showcases CATS "Random" [SORT] ability. Still need to figure out Imagemagick's mogrify command as the resulting output gif files are not respecting the input jpg orientations.

[ /sean/code/wan2web ] :: Changes to Wan2Web (v2.04). [W]an setting prompt defaults to my remote_addr.php for wan ip reporting but can be set to elsewhere, set [M]inutes default to 30, and now allow the user to store their FTP password in the registry (you have to manually add it). Updated documention on where to put the key.

[ /sean/code/dir2subs ] :: Changes to Dir2Subs (v2.02) to default to the [s]ource directory if the [d]estination parameter is omitted in command line calls. Now offering both x86 and x64 builds for those without AutoIT installed. Links to these are in the nav bar. Added screenshots of dialogs and example output.
[

[ /sean ] :: Support page has been changed. Added a "DIYer's" section outlining and providing links to off-site programming sites, forums, and editors. Multiple additions. Moved support email link to bottom of page.
[

[ /sean/code/hotrkeyz ] :: Changes to Hotrkeyz (v1.05) to exclude files in the combo root folder (running only files in the "ShellExecute" and "ShellExecuteWait" subfolders). Tray icon will now display the app title and number of combos being monitored for. Removed the "_sample" combos folder as the app was trapping "_" as a user defined hotkey. 'Support' SysTray menu will now redirect to website support page. Now hosting both x86 and x64 builds for those without AutoIT installed. Links to these are in the Hotrkeyz nav bar. Appended more information on the app in the FAQ's section regarding unassociated filetypes and "combos" folder location moves

[ /sean/code/cats ] :: Numerous code updates to CATS in terms of data validation, additional debug output support, and more proper DIE'ing. Starting to write more function specific plugins as I need them and I'll post those later into the plugins area. Documentation has been updated as I went along which can be found in the CATS documentation section.
