Fast thinking

Well I wanted to integrate launchy with firefox 3 bookmarks for quite some time and never got the time to find a workarround ’till today.

Thanks to my beloved Lifehacker Magazine I was able to do it with this article.

On the short it says:

1. Open Firefox
2. type about:config on the location bar and press enter
3. then type browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML and from FALSE passit to TRUE with a double click.
4. Restart Firefox
5. Rebuild your index
6. You’re ready to go! 

This will allow launchy to index your firefox bookmarks, the only problem with this workarround is that it will index the new bookmarks after you close firefox. This is because firefox dumps your bookmarks to the bookmarks.html file when it is closed.

Hope this helps

Well it’s about time to release this new version, this app comes with a lot of improvements, better coding (I hope) and support for other services.

The change log is in the rar file, but in short:

• Twitter support
• Pownce support
• Snarl support (needs snarl installed on your machine)
• new commands (config, party, twitter, pownce)
• new configuration window
• proxy support (if you are behind a firewall on your house or office and want to use the twitter or pownce feature)
• popup and snarl time control

So here are some screenshots:

iTuny comes with alot of improvements for you to enjoy. Please let me know if you want another feature or find any bug.

Hope you like this :)

0.5: Dropbox / Badongo

For some history here are the older versions:
0.4.5: Dropbox / Badongo
0.4: Dropbox / Badongo
0.3: Dropbox / Badongo
0.2: Dropbox / Badongo
0.1: Dropbox / Badongo

Well my word was in danger if I didn’t release this before the new year arrives :D so here it is, Version 0.4 of iTuny the Launchy companion to control your iTunes from the confort of your keyboard.

So what’s new on this version… well 5 new features and some bug fixes from the previous version 0.3 so let’s get this straight.

New Features:

• PrevAlbum and NextAlbum (this code is from jarethbone so the credit goes to him, i just added a message to tell you the info)
• Artwork on the Track info window, this is something i’m just testing so please let me know if you like it this way or the other way. I changed the tooltip version of the Track info to a window that auto disappears after an amount of time. This window contains the same info as the tooltip version + the artwork. so to call this just do the same as before iTunes Track. The tooltip version is still there but now to call it you have to type iTunes info and the tooltip version will appear.
• Art, this is a window with just the artwork. That’s all. It disappears after an amount of time.

And finally but not less the feature that I love (I hope you will), the TAG feature (as suggested by Rob here at my blog).

The Tag feature let’s you do that. Tag the current playing song. By now it lets you tag the next fields:

• Name
• Artist
• Album
• Composer
• DiscNumber
• Genre (Rock, HardRock, Pop, etc…)
• Grouping
• PlayedCount
• Track (this is the Track number)
• Year (4 digit)
• VolumeAdjustment (from -100 to 100)

To use it just type:

• iTunes Tag > name “multispace name”
• iTunes Tag > name singlespacename

After sometime typing it you could use itag or tag and launchy will recognize this as your preferred action for that word.

Fixed Bugs:

• Problem with Main Music playlist (Musik) in German . Reported by Lakriz
• Problems with the installer, in some cases it wouldn’t create the links correctly.

The RAR (556k) contains:

• iTunes Control.exe
• iTunes.ico
• iTunes Control.au3 (source code)
• NA.jpg (the no artwork image)

To install it just double click the iTunes Control.exe and the installer will popout.

By some reason Avast Antivirus is giving me false positives on all autoit scripts, so don’t be fooled this script is safe, contains NO virus, trojan or any other malware. The source code is on the package for you to see.

Hope you like the changes, and comments are always welcomed.
Update: 0.4.5

This fix an issue with the Query function that in some iTunes installations returns nothing every time.
Thanks Sebastián.
