Borland has extended and expanded their Open Tools contest. Previously this contest was only open to C#Builder-coders, but the contest has been expanded to Delphi8-submissions as well.
The thing to build is a “must-have” add-on for C#Builder or Delphi8 in their Open Tools API.
You can submit your entry until June 30th, 2004, and you can win a Tablet PC!

Another update to OUAU, now version 1.0.5.0.
Changes:
To do:
Microsoft must have gone bonkers! After opening up the source to WiX, they are now giving away the commandline tools for Visual C++. How about that?
Minor update to ouau, bringing it to version 1.0.4.0.
Changes:
My Office tool ouau has been upped to version 1.0.3.0. Changes are:
– Has a decent icon
– Ability to unblock all the extensions as listed in this MSDN-page
– Ability to “Select all”
It’s not new, but I ran accross SnippetCompiler. A little stand-alone .NET editor that enables you to test Snippets (doh!) without starting VS.NET or something big like that.
If you still use the .NET FrameWork v1.0 you need to download an extra config-file, but that’s all.
It works like a charm, even here in an environment where the C:-drive is protected. Just unzip it in a directory, start SnippetCompiler.exe and you’re good to go!
The authors weblog can be found here.
I’ve just discovered (by accident: my hand was resting on the CTRL key) that you can change the Textsize in Internet Explorer by holding the CTRL key and using the scrollwheel on your mouse. Very nice.
Al blog-lezend kwam ik Process Explorer van Sysinternals tegen. Een FREEWARE tool dat je kunt gebruiken als vervanger van TaskManager. Zeker voor de programmeurs onder ons is dit een must. Go get it! Waar wacht je nog op?!
Tim heeft ouau getest, en zegt dat het niet werkt. Hij heeft Office 2002 (XP). In TweakXP is wel te zien dat alle extensies zijn vrijgegeven. Klopt helemaal Tim, ouau werkt op dit moment alleen maar met Office 2003 (interne versie 11.0). Ik zal zo snel mogelijk zorgen dat alle Office versies vanaf 2000 werken.
