Title: My programs
Post by: wimc on Sep 11, 2016, 11:28:58 PM
For those interested in my programs.


Link: http://www.dusttrail.net/files/ (http://www.dusttrail.net/files/)

Eventually moving away from old development software with something much newer. Still considering putting Windows 10 back on main computer for future development.

May put all my programs on one page.

Possibly as http://www.dusttrail.net/tools.html (http://www.dusttrail.net/tools.html) (other posted links would be redirected to this page).

I like it, William.

Went ahead and changed same day. Prefer to have all programs on one page. Actually have all details on one page.

DustTrail will eventually fade away.

My programs are now at http://www.mcntsh.net/tools.html (http://www.mcntsh.net/)
Title: Re: My programs

Thought of using my last name (without two vowels), but decided to continue to use www.dusttrail.net

Looks good, William.

Post by: wimc on Mar 03, 2017, 09:11:08 AM
Find my programs at http://www.mcntsh.net/files/ (programs and screenshots).

There will be a tools page for them in due time, my name on the programs link to dusttrail, that will change once I get the computer* back that I was developing them on.

* my parents computer died so I loaned them that one.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Mar 04, 2017, 05:59:16 AM
Gave my parents my newest computer and took my old one back and using it instead, this May will order me another computer.

When (or if) you download my programs, my name will link to www.mcntsh.net now. And, last program on the tools page will take me some time to complete.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Mar 21, 2017, 12:14:14 AM
Sorry, pursuing other interests. Programs if used will still work regardless. If need help post here.

All links on this page are dead. Couple posts up, link to /files/ redirects to my homepage.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Mar 21, 2017, 09:22:09 AM
Correction: links to dusttrail.net are dead only.

Had to leave programs, see post #10 for link to the files, .exe are the programs, and .png are the screenshots.

Started to access my Simple Notes file but got a warning from my virus scan not to open.  First time this has happened.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Mar 22, 2017, 04:51:24 PM
That is odd, there is no reason for that.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Mar 22, 2017, 11:53:09 PM
Added to Temperature Conversion:
1. "Double-click to copy" the readout/result, paste anywhere.
2. My name when hovering it, will show below and only links to my homepage.
Code: [Select]
Link to: http://www.mcntsh.net/
Other programs are same name link as well.

Nice William. 
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Mar 23, 2017, 11:13:19 PM
Thanks bestofour.

Antivirus or similar may see something different only because I am not known and flag progam(s) for this reason, please do not let that discourage you or anyone.

I'm a one man operation, guarantee my programs are 100% safe to use.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Mar 30, 2017, 10:19:08 AM
Made some very minor changes to simple notes, stop watch and temperature conversion.

I will NOT make any other changes/updates anymore on above programs, unless I get another domain (which I am considering doing this october).

As for temperature calculator, its approximately 75% complete, as of this post.

See my signature for my programs, tools page.

Thanks Tina.

Bought another domain and hosting for it, see the earth globe to the left for everything.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Apr 04, 2017, 04:20:09 PM
Once again, got another domain and hosting for it, see signature for details.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Apr 08, 2017, 10:32:08 AM
Having a hard time deciding domain to use, so what is currently added in my signature is what I'll be using.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: bestofour on Apr 12, 2017, 01:33:42 PM
Love some of your links.  The earth cam is so fun.  Wish I was in Myrtle Beach.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Apr 13, 2017, 08:05:35 PM
Changed domain again, if you use programs, please download again so the link on programs will go to website added in signature.

Abndn.net is registered for 2 years, previous domain is registered for 1 year (will not exist end of this month).
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Jun 02, 2017, 06:07:13 PM
Haven't done much to the temperature calculator program for awhile, it will get done when I feel better or at least feel rested more.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Jul 20, 2017, 05:04:12 PM
Most likely will switch to another domain end of the year. As mentioned, see my signature for details.

Been very slow finishing temperature calculator.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Jul 31, 2017, 01:06:21 PM
My website will be back this December, most likely with another domain.

Really hoping to have temperature calculator done and available when website is back.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: bestofour on Jul 31, 2017, 02:35:16 PM
Seems there's domain issues.

Post by: wimc on Jul 31, 2017, 02:44:13 PM
Seems there's domain issues.

More like me having issues. Will admit, do have a hard time deciding on domains the last few or so years.

Which will be straightened December.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Aug 01, 2017, 04:45:53 PM
Decided to keep website in signature active and running. Thanks to bestofour, and other reasons. Still domain may change December.

I don't know how you can teach yourself computer stuff.  I have trouble learning it with someone showing me what to do.   I like your earth cam link but can't get the Birds of Paradise to work anymore. 
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Aug 01, 2017, 09:53:12 PM
Taught myself in the 80's with the Commodore Vic 20, teaching myself really took off early 90's. Learned Visual Basic (hence the programs) 2001-2002 via online college. Lots and lots of trial and error over the decades.

Earthcam sometimes has issues. Not sure what you are viewing though.

Well, tools are now archived.

Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Aug 23, 2017, 05:14:41 PM
Above link does not work, that website will be removed.

Files and screenshots updated to reflect my name - Bill McIntosh, now shows on programs, and all link to my homepage at http://www.billmcintosh.net/

My programs are at http://www.billmcintosh.net/projects/visual-basic-programs.html

Added to signature also.

Your welcome.

Kept playing the option of keeping files to one page or separate pages, went with each file having their own page.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Aug 28, 2017, 07:06:48 AM
Holy cow, been almost a year working on temperature calculator.

Available now: http://www.billmcintosh.net/files/temperature-calculator.html

Though it still needs work. Hopefully next release will fix my to do on completing at 100%, I'll say its at around 80% currently.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Aug 29, 2017, 04:44:09 AM
Prefer using fnctn.net, so everything was changed to reflect that, see signature.
Title: Re: My programs

I get a message about not downloading now.  I have Windows 10.  Compatible?

Sorry, not actually sure what you mean.

Have a windows 10 note on the programs page (added when I used windows 10), though no way testing now, I do not ever plan on putting windows back on mine.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: bestofour on Aug 30, 2017, 09:02:00 PM
I was looking a the temperature calculator and got a message about the possibility of downloading damaging my computer is all. 

I'm not that fond of windows but since I'm a technology dummy I take what I can get. :)
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Aug 30, 2017, 10:05:39 PM
Old software versus newer operating system, my programs are 100% safe.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: bestofour on Aug 31, 2017, 10:54:46 AM
Thanks.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Aug 31, 2017, 03:36:37 PM
No problem.

As mentioned on the first page. My programs may also get flagged by Anti-virus and any similar software. Once again, my programs are 100% safe to use.

See signature again, though I may like fnctn.net, decided its best to go with billmcintosh.net instead.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Sep 02, 2017, 11:57:33 AM
Changed back to using fnctn.net (prefer using this). My name on them hasn't changed. As always, see signature.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Oct 02, 2017, 11:05:49 AM
Domain updated again. See signature for website and the files page for my programs.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Oct 02, 2017, 08:30:18 PM
Sorry for the domain roller coaster ride.

Domain changed back to what it was before previous post.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Oct 13, 2017, 05:15:22 AM
I promise last domain* change. Went with what I had when I started this topic, also in signature.

* well, may be August 2018 or so, but seriously doubt it'll happen.

And all the domains I've posted in this topic redirect to whats in my signature, at least till they die off.
Title: Re: My programs
Post by: wimc on Oct 20, 2017, 08:09:09 PM
First, domain will remain as fnctn.net, already added 2 years to this domain, shows expiration of 2020, and more years will be added early next year. And January 2018 my hosting account will be paid annually.

Temperature Calculator, got wind chill calculation the way it should be, will not accept any temperatures 41 and greater, wind speed will not accept -1 or less, entering 0 or 1 in wind speed will reflect temperature.

Heat index calculation is a bugger for now.
