Proxi v0.18

link: Proxi v0.18

In this update:

  • Folder monitor
  • URL coloring removed
  • Help menu

My apologies to anyone affected by the expiration of v0.17, I usually set the expiration date one month beyond the release date, but this time I let it slip.

Folder monitor. This works similarly to Apple’s own Folder Actions. When a folder has an item added to or removed from it, it will generate a trigger with the name, url and some other information. You might use this to monitor a drop box or initiate a series of actions via AppleScript.

URLs in Screen Messages (and elsewhere) no longer force the text color to blue unless you have not specified a color for your text. So you should be able to set the URL color to whatever you like. I do force the underlining of a URL however.

Help: This kept me busy for awhile, I have a hard time when it comes to documenting for some reason. And I was kind of rushed with the expiration problem at hand so there are probably numerous grammatical and spelling errors.

So there you have it not much in this release, I’ve had a few other neglected projects that I spent time on over the last 2 weeks. I think we’re getting close to opening up the beta so if you have any additions you really want to see, now would be the time to make those requests.

    Imposible to set a Hotkey in Hotkey Monitor using a keyboard definition other than US. I’ve tried it with Spanish ISO keyboard definition (my default) and French keyboard definition.

    I cannot get the AppleScript task to open an existing AppleScript that I wrote with the AppleScript Editor that comes with OS X? It has a .scpt extension, but the file is grayed out in the open file dialog.

    Solved my own problem. Saved the script as a text file instead of a script file. I now having a working script for Play/Pause of RealPlayer 10. Still trying to figure out Track and Volume controls, though.

    It looks like you can set the hotkeys, but they do not display correctly in Proxi. I’ll see what can be done.

    I don’t have RealPlayer installed at the moment, but are there keyboard equivalents for these commands? If so use Key Press tasks. That would mean that Real Player would have to be the active application though. You can use the Launch Application task to activate it.
