Media Player Classic enqueue shell extension | Krofinzki's World
an option to enqueue files in MPC via file association tweak. I think I'll move forward with my Playlist Handler. DDE? Fingers crossed.
DDE Server (for single-instance file association) [std-lib]
I'm lost with this DDE / selected files thing and it's late. Maybe there's a way to do it. I just want to have a bunch of files passed to a script using DDE... I just wish I knew a way to have all selected files put into a temp database for use in my AHK scripts. Rest...
Tips N Tricks
Think I found a way to do what I want. I need to select the files then have AHK script copy to clipboard. From there the clipboard can be parsed and manipulated. Problem is making the last explorer window get focus when the control-c is sent. That way I'm copying the right stuff. *** In this post, look (also) for hashes.dll. Gives me an idea to make my own dupe file deleter based on hashes.
Is this possible? Select a file and copy its location
Pretty much got this Playlist thing sorted, or at least planned - I meant to go to sleep (woops). Now I just need to implement it. This post shows another way I might use to get the selected files - might try it, but what I have works well. bed time.

Retrieve AddressBar of Firefox through DDE Message
loving this. time to update my delicious API scripts... now with DDE... later maybe error check
Command Line DDE
I have a script that makes it easy to select several/many files and open them in a playlist in MPC. Problem is that there is a limit to the number of characters in parameters (file names/directories) that are passed to a program. Hopefully, using DDE I will be able to get the files selected and have their locations passed to an AHK script that will make a temp playlist and run it in MPC. Of course, I haven't searched for a context menu hack to do this same thing with MPC without the AHK script... maybe I should.

program irDA - Google Search
I have spent YEARS wanting software/hardware to control my PC. I want to do simple things like: play/pause a movie or music, run scripts/bats, initiate music/movie. Why has this been so hard for me to achieve and why do I have to have something like Frontrow or XP MCE? Maybe I'll track down a solution amidst all the turmoil in my life right now.

this would be nice for a PC Remote, could be even better if this and a Harmony remote mated and made babies, ie. would be could to have a little touch screen included.

some software that looks interesting regarding the PC Remote control topic. Another task I had forgot to mention: use PC irDA to turn on and off TV, stereo, etc.

Environment Variables - Linux Commands
nice. just call 'env' and you can see all environment variable. then you can do something like 'echo $USER' to see your user account name.. I think there are better ways to do this, but this is nice - in general.

Running Stunnel as a service under Windowz/Cygwin
FINALLY got cygwin and stunnel working. Now I can email from the command line/ terminal.
Cygserver
some advice on getting program to run as service with Cygwin. this is useful after you got stunnel running. Next step is to make some scripts that email me when it's important or make a little GUI that acts as a quick email app.

make app portable - Google Search
when apps are installed on windows they usually write something to the registry or put some file somewhere that tracks whether they are registered or not - I think. It would be nice if there were a way to have a program execute that program and intercept all registry writes and emulate the registry reads. this way you could pretty much have a portable app, right? Portable is good cause it can be migrated easily. It's what I want.
