ok I read that...none the wiser to be truthful. I have now learned that this is way over my head but I am still interested. I read that tweaking programs was possible and thats what got me into it. For instance, I work with a lot of images and the search box is just way too small and I reckon when somebody wants to open a file they should have the option of a full page rather then the small box we get now to browse through. I would like that search box to be like a folder choice.
Another one is that if I export a file from photoshop or whatever program I have to go through the save options and select, say, .jpg...and then go to save the next image but I have to go and scroll looking for .jpg again. It should stay at my .jpg selection until I change it myself instead of always defaulting back to the programs file extension.
Think I'll ever get a job with the big BGates?
Cache the code is either a sample file in the dev-c++ program or I copied/pasted it from a tutorial somewhere off the net...
I'm quite sure its the most basic code and I just wanted to see if I could do anything with it but that was when I started to look into the outer limits...
