Question on Informer Elf

[sky444]

danation hope I'm doing this right if not I apologize

Have a question on the Infomer Elf - wondering if once it's on is it always active or can you shut it off and on. I guess what I'm asking is, is there a "hot key" for it?

To be exact - here's one of my skins with informer running.(taken with MSnap) Can I clear the screen and show it when I want?

Yeah, you're good :)

But I unfortunately haven't tried this ELF yet, so I don't know the answer to your question.

I'm trying to figure some of the elfs out too - I LIKE THEM they sure seem faster.

anyway back to the original - here's the .ini file for Informer as I have it from a zip file.(just the global part) it's in Russian but the key1_exit=10 thing - doesn't that mean you can exit it....forgive me I'll be the first one to admit I'm "dumb" on that....


[GLOBAL]
Key1_Exit=10 ; êíîïêè âûõîäà
Key2_Exit=11
Key3_Exit=17
Between=12 ; ðàññòîÿíèå ìåæäó ñòðîêàìè

According to paralink, the Russian says "Buttons of an output" and the second one says "Distance between lines." Whatever that means, lol.

I don't know either - maybe Zdune will get in on this when he has time - seems quite up-to-date on it all.

if i'm correct,
Key1_Exit=10 ; êíîïêè âûõîäà
Key2_Exit=11
Key3_Exit=17 keys to unload the elf. thats what the comment means, keys to unload.

if i'm correct,
keys to unload the elf. thats what the comment means, keys to unload. Thanks Aravind , so 10 would exit me out of informer ? If that's right - what would make it happen 10 and what button ??

No, the continuous key press of 10,11 & 17 will quit the application.
(let me see which key these correspond to)

normally the unload keyts are #+*+red(or was it right soft key?)
anyways,
Key1_Exit=10 <-- key to pressed
Key2_Exit=11 <-- next key to press
Key3_Exit=17 <-- if this key is pressed, unload else continue doing whatever it does.(that is how the algo will work, but, here you are just giving the constants the names as key1_exit... so that, in the functions, you can just call key1.exit, and not having to compile the entire SC just for a change in combination. in short declaration of constants)
I'm bad at the explaining part :P

anyways, some of the read me files(of the elves) have the keys and their corresponding digits given, refer that.

[Danation]

That makes sense. Thanks for the info :)
