UCMe2 v0.1.0 (Beta) (PPC Application)

Release notes by Radimus:

Premise is that there are many backup utilities that will backup/restore either dirs or the whole ROM, but not just for a specific apps settings. There are many ways that dev could use to store their settings for a given app, but getting them all to do the same way is “difficult”. However, if program A had it’s settings in a settings.ini (or whatever name) and that specific file could be backed up and restored later after a hard reset or new ROM installed, it would make the flashing a ROM even easier since UC came out.

My idea is for an app that works sort of like AppToDate, in that it will parse a collection of ini files in a directory to determine what a given progam uses for it’s configuation (files or reg keys) and will backup/restore them.

Basically all that someone needs to do is:
– Extract the UMCe2.zip to a folder on their Storage Card
– Register Mortscript (just click on it once, from this point on you can just click on a script and it will run.)
– Place the INI files that define the files or keys of the app that you’d like to backup/restore into the Storage CardUCMe2ini folder. I have posted a small collection of some INI files as examples
– If you’d like startmenu shortcuts, I attached a few dummy.exe files that you can put into the UCMe2 folder so you can make shortcuts.
– Run the UCMe2_Backup and it will read every INI file in the ini folder and store the backup files in Storage CardUCMe2Backup
– Run the UCMe2_Restore and it will read every INI file in the ini folder are restore the backups

Feel free to create your own INI files and post them here for others to share

Task Facade v4.0 (RC6) (PPC Application)

Task Facade, previously known as Dynamo 3, is a cool, animated task manager for your PocketPC 2003/05/06 device. Say goodbye to boring text lists of running programs and instead manage your programs by sliding in images of all your running applications onto your screen. For each program on your device an image is saved and when you click the hotkey they all zoom onto your screen. Simply click the one you want and it will increase to fill the screen. Quickly seeing all the running programs is far more efficient than having to read through a text-based task list so Task Facade can make task switching a much faster, and cooler, experience.

Task Facade also allows you to quit programs from inside the image view meaning that it does everything your old text-based program manager could do.

As well as just looking generally cooler, Task Facade offers far more customization than before and allows the whole application to be controlled using either your PDAs hardware keys or the stylus.
