Re: [DQSD-Users] How to install on windows 7 32bit system

[Charlie Russel]

If all you see is Quick Search on the bottom, it means the bar is there, but 
hasn't got room to expand. You need to right click your toolbar and unlock it. 
Then expand the Quick Search toolbar by clicking on the pebbled vertical bar to 
the left of Quick Search and dragging it to the left to expand the toolbar. 
(You can reduce the space required for the toolbar by right clicking Quick 
Search and clearing the Show Title option.)

 Resent in plain Text Format for DQSD List Archive purposes 

Fellow DQSD Users.

Like most of you, I've been running DQSD for many years and cannot live
without it! It's one of the very first things I install on my Windows
taskbar. I finally got it to work flawlessly on my new Windows 7 x64 (RTM)
machine and it behaves and looks great IMO! I developed the Vista theme
(.css) (with Kim/Charlie) several years ago and now I've finished the
Windows 7 Theme. It looks like part of the Windows 7 OS.very clean and auto
adjusts to whatever Window Color (The transparent bar color) that you
choose using the Personalization Control Panel. Accordingly, multiple
themes (i.e. XP's DQSD) aren't really necessary. Please see attached
samples.

This theme OVERWRITES your current theme.css and is more of a hack than
using the traditional theme selection---yes, I was lazy this time. ;) Feel
free to adapt it or make it better and resubmit to the list.

If the attachments in this post aren't available in your reader, they are
here also:

http://vysa.net/dqsd.zip

Hopefully, Charlie or Kim will put this on the main page soon!

It's important to note that this theme is only for Windows 7 running in
Smaller 100% DPI mode and not the default 125% DPI.call me old fashion!
;) See Remarks inside theme.css file for more details.

Hope you like it and continue to use this awesome search tool on Windows 7
RTM!

Special thanks to Maud Dib for helping me get it to work properly on Windows
7 x64 using IE8 32-bit browser instead of 64-bit browser.

Re: [DQSD-Users] Windows 7 RC 64 Bit Install Help needed

Looks right (good job!) -- Now we'll need to do some work to make DQSD look 
good on the new taskbar. The Vista look is better than the XP look, but still 
not a good match for the new Win7 taskbar and Aero look.

 Well, good news and bad news.
 
 The good news is I have it working.
 
 The bad news is it can be difficult to remove if the installation screws
 up
 in a certain way.  See notes below!!!
 
 The steps I came up with avoid some Windows 7 security checks without
 disabling them altogether. I will list the general steps, not every
 Windows
 UAC Confirm this step message.  Note that I use TweakUAC to suppress
 most
 of them anyway.
 
 1) Download the dqsdx64-4100-beta.zip package to a location you will
 remember. :-)
 
 2) Right click the dqsdx64-4100-beta.zip package and select Properties.
 At
 the bottom of the dialog there may be a message
 
 Security: This file came from another computer and might be blocked to
 help
 protect this computer
 
 Click the Unblock button.  Click Apply then close the Properties
 dialog.
 
 3)  Repeat Step 2 above and VERIFY THAT THERE IS NO SECURITY MESSAGE
 
 4)  Create  a temporary folder for easy Command Window access - I used
 C:\Temp.  Unzip the dqsdx64-4100-beta.zip file (keeping folder names)
 into
 C:\Temp.
 
 5)  Navigate to  C:\Temp\DQSDx64.  Check a couple of .JS files and
 verify
 that the files do not have the Security message in their Properties
 (see
 step 2).
 
 6)  Create a new desktop shortcut - Target: CMD.EXE ; Name Command
 Window
 
 7) CREATE A SYSTEM RESTORE POINT.  IF THE INSTALLATION SCREWS UP THE
 DQSD
 CLOCK SCRIPT ERROR WILL MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO REMOVE DQSD. THE EASIEST
 FIX
 IT IS TO DO A SYSTEM RESTORE.
 
 8) Right click the Command Window shortcut created in step 6 and click
 Run
 as Administrator
 
 9)  In the command window navigate to the installation folder
 C:\Temp\DQSDx64 (or where the Unzipped files are).
 
 10) Type SETUPX64.CMD - follow the prompts.
 
 11)  When install is complete, with no errors (Hope!)  you will have to
 right click the taskbar and select Toolbars twice before Quick Search
 appears.
 
 NOTES:  There is no entry in Programs and Features to remove/uninstall
 DQSDx64.  I could not find one in the install folder either.  Also, once
 you
 have  turned the toolbar on by right clicking the  TaskbarToolbars
 any
 attempt to turn it off causes Explorer to restart with DQSD still
 there.
 Additionally if the installation has javascript errors in the CLOCK.JS
 (?)
 for whatever reason, it is virtually impossible to delete the install
 folder
 in order to start over/reinstall, even when booting to SAFE MODE.  That
 is
 the why the RESTORE POINT above is important.  If the install fails -
 you
 can restore your system.   Should an error crop up in the future, the
 only
 thing I can think of off-hand is to boot to a command prompt an delete
 the
 installation folder manually.
 
 Whew I hope I got all that right!

Re: [DQSD-Users] Windows 7 RC 64 Bit Install Help needed

[Charlie Russel]

Another possibility is some sort of standalone application that could be
hot-key activated (that's fairly straightforward), and have a small
window that could be parked down in the lower corner of desktop. But a
Vista/Win7 Gadget is probably a more obvious fit, though would impose
more limitations on what it could do in terms of popping up additional
windows, etc. 

I'm afraid I'm fully committed to Win7 at this point, even though it has
meant no DQSD for me. It wasn't an easy choice, I can tell you. I do
have DQSD loaded in my Windows XP Mode virtual machine on Win7, but
that's not all that helpful when I use applications there in RAIL mode.

 I've been concerned about this.  I wish I could help with the
 development.
 
 I could live with a gadget as long as Windows+S still brought it to
the
 foreground and gave its edit box focus (maybe even pasted the current
 selection or clipboard contents in there...).  I'd also love the
 searches with popup windows to continue to work.  (Like mwd /popup
used
 to, and the newer, unreleased, df search does.)
 
 Ideally, though, I'd like to have its edit box always be present so
that
 I could navigate to it via mouse, too, as it is on the Taskbar in
 current Windows OSes.  I realize that that may be too much to ask for,
 though.
 
 This is the *only* thing that makes me hesitant about Windows 7.
That's
 how important DQSD is.

Re: [DQSD-Users] Failure to Instantiate - instantiate_failure.png

The x64 version of DQSD always uses the 64-bit version of IE. (This is because 
it's a 64-bit DLL, and can't call a 32-bit EXE.)

 Yes.  After a fresh install the CLSID default value and file location

 help which I assume is using IE, but is it the x32 or x64 version of
 IE?
 
 If this follows past experience DQSD will remain working for a while,
 it may even be a couple of days.  I am not going to tempt fate by
 making changes to the local*.* files and will just let it run as is.
 
 I have my fingers crossed...

Re: [DQSD-Users] Adjust Clock Font

Bill (and Kim) -- For some clues on how and where to change, take a look at 
the Vista CSS file we did. (Look under Themes, Vista in the installation

We had to do quite a bit of tweaking to get fonts where we wanted them in 
Vista, and I think you'll find some good clues in that directory.

 Hi Bill,

 The clock is governed by the CSS class clock in search.css. Here are
 the relevant portions:
 --
 .txtfld, .clock
 {
 font : menu;
 background-color: window;
 color: windowtext;
 border-style: inset;
 border-width:1px;
 padding-top:2px;
 padding-left:2px;
 padding-right:2px;
 padding-bottom:3px;
 margin:0px;
 position:absolute;
 overflow:hidden;
 word-break:break-all;
 }
 .clock
 {
 background-color: menu;
 color: windowtext;
 cursor:hand;
 text-align:right;
 }
 --

 You should be able to set the font size, by adding something like:

 .clock
 {
  font-size:15px;
 }

 to your localsearch.css, but I don't know CSS well enough to say that
 that's the final truth.

 The idea, anyway, is that you overload whatever class you want to
 change in localsearch.css -- the specifics of what you want to do
 should be CSS mechanics.

 Good luck,
 - Kim

 What I can't fathom is what section of the search.css contains the
 section to be adjusted.  My knowledge regarding css (and probably most
 other things) is nada.  Attempts so far have been unsuccessful.

 Would a Guru please be so kind as to point me in the right direction.

the problem exists on 32-bit as well, so it isn't 64-bit specific.

Re: [DQSD-Users] DQSD Install Problems - Vista 64

[Charlie Russel]

Actually, in many ways, Win7 is better/easier than Vista. I'm really
looking forward to it being released. But for applications like ours,
it's really a challenge. 

I've had to mostly stop using DQSD. Not what I wanted, I miss it every
day. But it crashes explorer in Win7, and I can't run it off the
terminal server without running a full desktop session. And I'm using TS
RemoteApps for most things these days. 

I'd really like to see us have a Vista/Win7 gadget for this. It would
get us out of the UAC issues, get us off the taskbar (where MS doesn't
like anyone else to play), and give us some version neutrality. But
while I don't think it is a huge developmental hit, it's way more than I
can do any more.

Charlie.

Re: [DQSD-Users] DQSD Install Problems - Vista 64

[Charlie Russel]

 Cool, I didn't know that. I was worried that we might be facing
 *another* port to AMD-64 :)
No, no worries there. There are a very few things that one or the other
does slightly differently, and probably only the Intel compiler knows
what they are. AMD64 completely caught Intel by surprise, they were
trying to push everyone to Itanium. And when AMD came out with a very
fast, very compatible, 64-bit processor that MS agreed to support, Intel
basically had no choice but to clone it and play catch up. They've done
a good job of that, but AMD had seriously eaten in to their server
business for a while. 
 
 No, you don't want to do that; the setupx64.cmd batch file is the
 64-bit version of the 32-bit dqsd-.exe installer. They don't
 complement each other, it's either-or.
You're right, I realized that my systems all have weird legacy stuff
hanging around from my early testing days of this. 

The key to Bill's problems were the requirement for full administrative
privileges, I'm sure. (I _thought_ that was called out in the readme,
but maybe not. Have to look.) And the requirement that the setupx64.cmd
file run from the same drive letter as your system drive. (or, more
accurately, as your %programfiles% drive.)
 
 Sorry to hear about Windows 7. We could look into what's breaking, I
 wouldn't give up so soon... :)
Well, it's going to RC soonish, from the sounds of it. I had it on build
7000 (the widely available public beta build) on a machine that was an
update from Vista where it was working. It loaded fine (but the colours
are all different again, so we need to deal with that), but as soon as
you clicked on it, Explorer crashed. Couldn't even unload it - the
attempt would crash it and it would reload with explorer. 

As I mentioned, the colours are all different in Win7, so we need to
either recreate the work we did for Vista (not hard, but might be a bit
of a nuisance because the bar is a lot taller by default), or come up
with a way to better handle this on the fly, picking up our colours from
the environment. This is especially the case in Win7 since the task bar
changes colour and transparency along with the window theme. (Oh, and
the bar also does the Aero thing just like window boarders do if you
have an aero theme selected.)

But Win7 is the death knell of the task bar as we knew it. It's changed.
A lot. I still think that the way forward is a Vista gadget. This is
MS's official way to add this kind of utility to Windows and they're
less likely to break it than the taskbar. Also, the server version of
Win7 is 64-bit only, and this may well be the last and final 32-bit
client version. So we need to move to 64-bit as the core if we're going
to run as an Explorer DLL. (Gadgets free us from that requirement, by
the way. )

Re: [DQSD-Users] comx /dilbert access denied

[Charlie Russel]

Yes, I've reloaded after changing the comx file. Heck, I've rebooted. But 
this is Vista, with UAC on, so fussy. It was working until comics.com 
changed everything, and still works in non-comics.com areas.

Shawn - if you can re-write it, I'd certainly appreciate it. The ability to 
easily add additional comics would be a nice touch.

 Charlie / Shawn --

I am assuming that you reloaded the xml searches in DQSD by typing a 
 single ! character in the search box, after replacing the
 comx.xml file (otherwise, you're still running the old search).

That being said, is the access denied message you're receiving 
 similar to the one I've attached to this message?  If so,
 welcome to my office-based hell.  I started getting this message doing any 
 comx query after a windows policy update on my office
 computer.  comx still worked fine on the WindowsXP machine I had at home 
 at the time.

Kim -- this may be where you come (back) in to the conversation --- if 
 they're seeing the same thing, it's the issue I was
 trying to explain I was having several months ago, and could no longer get 
 (for instance) comx to work properly on my machine at
 work.  There's something in the configuration of internet access, Windows 
 XP, or some policy therein that prevents the comx.xml
 script (and, perhaps, others as well) from working as they should. 
 Instead, I see the error message I've attached to this note.

I no longer have a Windows machine at home, so that's why I have no way 
 to test the changes I've made to the comx.xml file.  I
 am fairly confident they work, though, as I made similar changes to my 
 comx.php program, which I specifically wrote to run on my web
 server so that I could still get a single page with all my comics on it 
 from my machine at work (and, as a bonus, can also get from
 any non-windows [thus incapable of running DQSD] machine).  :)

comics.com did change the entire layout of their site on November 3, 
 and all of the comics hosted there stopped working
 (including dilbert, which changed a bit more radically than the rest). 
 As a result of those changes, I rewrote the portion of my
 php program that fetched comics from comics.com, and it now works.  The 
 changes I made to comx.xml mimic the changes I made to my
 php program... that said, they should work.  :)   I've also sent the 
 comx.xml to a friend of mine that was able to use DQSD and comx
 on his computer before, and I'll let you know if he has any problems with 
 this new update.

 anyway... I've rambled on enough here.   attached is the error screenshot 
 from my work machine (where comx.xml doesn't work, nor has
 it for several months) -- Shawn, Charlie -- I'd appreciate your input on 
 this thread as to whether that's the same message you're
 now seeing...

 Does anyone else on Vista see this? Is there some way to tweak my

Re: [DQSD-Users] Local aliases not working

[Charlie Russel]

You don't specify which version of DQSD you're using. If you're using
the latest RC3 Build, which you should be on Vista, you need to
completely uninstall all previous versions before installing DQSD. 

I'm still DQSD-less, since I've been waiting until we have an RTM
version before asking someone to build a 64-bit Vista ready version. And
I only run 64-bit here. 

Charlie.

none

Re: [DQSD-Users] Odd Math Error

[Charlie Russel]

It's all about binary arithmetic. Spreadsheets have traditionally had this same 
issue. There are workarounds for it, but there's a substantial performance 
penalty and in most cases it's simply not enough to worry about. The number is 
always only off by one bit at the limit of your precision.

 Hi Richard,
 
  Uhhh that doesnt sound right to me. I subtracted 3 different values

 Oops, I didn't see your results were identical for the first two cases.
 I tried it here;
 
 2156737.51 - 16123.81 = 2140613.67
 2156737.51 - 16123.83 = 2140613.679997 -- Note: .6_7_999...
 2156737.51 - 16123.82 = 2140613.69
 
 Could you try it again to make sure you transcribed the values correctly?
 
  Also two of the results are flat out wrong.
 
 Right, but they're pretty close to correct, which is what you get with
 floating-point, if I understand things correctly.
 
  I could understand if I had used some kind of hokey notation but its
  a straight up math problem X-Y. When performed in a calculator
  application I dont get that result?
 
 The calculator (at least the one in Windows) probably doesn't use
 floating-point to store its numbers, but again, I'm a bit out of my
 depth here.

Re: [DQSD-Users] Vista issues

[Charlie Russel]

I did the theme, with help from several folks, especially Matt B. It IS
an improvement, isn't it? Now if I just had this as a 64-bit version,
I'd be happy. Unfortunately, I can't run DQSD these days since there
isn't a 64-bit one. I tried to do it myself, but no joy.

  Hello all,
 
  I've recently started playing with Vista to see if I can live with
it;
 of
  course DQSD is a prerequisite for that :) I have two issues:
 
  1. (Functional) Closing the searchbar (right-click, choose Close
 Toolbar)
  crashes the Explorer process.
 
  1. (Cosmetic) I found in an archived message that someone had made
theme
  files for Vista, and indeed they help make the DQSD bar look better
in
 the
  Vista taskbar. However it would look much better still if it didn't
 quite
  span the width of the taskbar.
 
  I've attached a piece of a screenshot (having no idea if attachments
 work
  with this list or not) showing the DQSD bar next to the Windows
 Address
  toolbar, which leaves a few pixels of taskbar above and below
itself. If
  the DQSD bar could do that it would look pretty good. (I tried
playing
  with localsearch.css but I couldn't find a way...)

Re: [DQSD-Users] Vista

[Charlie Russel]

Correct. Users running Vista will need to take the provided files and
substitute them for localsearch.css and theme.css. Our installation
should simply put them into the dqsd directory. Actually, the
localsearch.css should be renamed to localsearch_vista.css before we
make it available to folks so that it doesn't overwrite their own
version. Those who already have localsearch.css will want to merge their
customizations in with the provided css file, and then name it
'localsearch.css'. 

In my working with these, I found it best to copy the files to my own
directory, make all the changes, and then copy them back under \program
files\quick search deskbar. You'll get a couple of UAC prompts, but
that's always going to be the case with Vista.

Re: [DQSD-Users] Vista

[Charlie Russel]

Kim -
   I agree, I thought I should have been able to get this whole thing to work 
with just theme.css. But some things just wouldn't take right and it ended up 
looking ugly. Specfically, the  button wouldn't change colour, and a couple 
of other minor things. I'm not at all sure which one overrides the other. Maybe 
this could be done entirely in localsearch.css? I didn't actually try that 
scenario. But definitely theme.css alone wasn't sufficient. 

  I confess, this was just me poking around, no real knowledge about what was 
happening where. And a lot of trial and error (which is a PITA with UAC turned 
on, I can tell you!) 

I don't by any means think these are definitive versions. Just my best guess by 
the time I gave up at 1 AM this morning. g The one thing I'm sure of though 
is that it is WAY better than any of the existing themes in Vista. (You really 
have to see the ugliness to appreciate it how bad it is.)

 Hi guys,
 
 I found some time to look into the menu -- it's built from configure.xml

 That script contains boatloads of logic to set up the menu, including a
 set
 of calls to add themes in buildConfigureMenu().
 
 It bothers me a little that the Vista theme requires changes to both
 localsearch.css and theme.css... Could this be re-made to require changes
 only in theme.css? Maybe that puts more pressure on the other themes,
 though, I don't know 100% how this stuff fits together.

  Correct. Users running Vista will need to take the provided
  files and substitute them for localsearch.css and
  theme.css. Our installation should simply put them into the
  dqsd directory. Actually, the localsearch.css should be
  renamed to localsearch_vista.css before we make it
  available to folks so that it doesn't overwrite their own
  version. Those who already have localsearch.css will want to
  merge their customizations in with the provided css file, and
  then name it 'localsearch.css'.
 
  In my working with these, I found it best to copy the files
  to my own directory, make all the changes, and then copy them
  back under \program files\quick search deskbar. You'll get a
  couple of UAC prompts, but that's always going to be the case
  with Vista.

Re: [DQSD-Users] Vista

[Charlie Russel]

Hi, Kim. 

Yes, my localsearch was empty before I started. The one thing that simply would 
NOT change in theme.css was the  on the button. It stayed doggedly black, 
which doesn't work on a very dark grey background. 

I'll play around a bit more in a couple of days, when I have some time, and 
maybe I can get it all back to where it is done in theme.css. If I can figure 
out what is going on with the chevrons. I agree, that would be best. Then we 
simply ship the theme_vista.css plus the two bmp files, and folks can manually 
copy the theme_vista.css to theme.css and be done. 

Charlie.

 Hi Charlie,
 
 Right. It seems the load order is:
 
 1) search.css
 2) theme.css
 3) localsearch.css
 
 so localsearch.css should only be involved at the very last stage.
 
 Was your localsearch.css empty to begin with?
 
  Maybe this could be done entirely in
  localsearch.css?
 
 I think it should be the other way around -- theme.css should be the only
 point of change. localsearch.css is for user-specific mods, and should
 override both search.css and theme.css.
 
  The one thing I'm sure of though is that it is
  WAY better than any of the existing themes in Vista. (You
  really have to see the ugliness to appreciate it how bad it is.)
 
 Heh. I keep getting the blue XP theme because I install as administrator
 and
 run DQSD as another user, and that really looks crap with my classic
 theme.
 
 Cheers,
 - Kim

Re: [DQSD-Users] Vista

[Charlie Russel]

 
 Weird... I'll try and figure something out, but as I said, CSS isn't
my
 forte.
Nor mine. I wonder if there's a decent online reference for it. I'll
have to look around. It's all a nuisance, of course, since I don't have
a 64-bit dqsd to work with and only have one machine running 32-bit
Vista. All others are on 64-bit. 

Give me a few days to poke around. I can probably sort something. Now
that I've gotten pretty much everything looking at least reasonable, I
won't have so many variables to deal with. I probably made too many
changes at once and lost track of something. 

Thank goodness for gvim - doing all this editing in notepad would be
seriously painful. 

Charlie.

Hmmm. Not on that machine right now, but I'll try it again tonight when I have 
a moment. 

I'll pass on the excruciating one. And try the other, thanks. 

Little red chevron is good. Though I actually think the best for the theme 
would probably be silver. I'll try that later. 

Thanks, Kim.

 Here's the actual spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/ -- excruciating.
 W3Schools: http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp -- usually short and
 sweet, but low on basic ideas
 
 FWIW, I removed everything from localsearch.css and copied the *button
 classes into theme.css, and it worked, instantly. I get a little red
 chevron, at least.
 
 Maybe it's a Vista thing?

Re: [DQSD-Users] Vista

[Charlie Russel]

Yeah, that works. But you can't use the right click menu to change themes. But 
since that doesn't work in Vista anyway, I guess that's not too important. 
(Permissions problem with UAC turned on.)

OK, I've got a bit map that works. Now I just need to figure out how to have a 
calendar popup that isn't seriously ugly and light blue. A good background for 
Vista might be a nice light grey - it at least wouldn't look odd. Though I 
suppose a darker grey would be more in line with what the toolbar is.

 I think the idea was to name the CSS of your choice 'theme.css', and
 restart
 DQSD -- it should pick it up as-is.
 
 You may want to keep the empty theme.css around, as I believe it
 constitutes
 the Classic theme.

I can take the necessary screenshots if someone can define what they

 Maybe it has something to do with comics pulled from ucomics.com.  Try
 viewing 'Dick Tracy' using both of the following methods to see if they
 work:
 
 comx /dicktracy
 or
 comx /dicktracy /nopopup
 
 If neither work, try clearing your browser cache and try again.

RE: [DQSD-Users] COMX.XML - missing Joy of Tech User Friendly (again)

[Charlie Russel]

You're right, it's going against comics.com. But I've cleared the
browser cache (both 32bit and 64bit ie), and definitely replaced the
comx.xml. And reloaded with !, of course. And via the  menu. And I'm
even getting the popup, so that's a sure sign it's not the original
comx.xml. 

I'm going to do a reboot in a few minutes. 

Charlie.

 It sounds like it is running an old comx.xml, or you have the URL
 cached.   This behavior is what you will get when the pattern matching
 fails to find the string in the destination website..  (which is what
 was happening after forbetter was removed from comics.com)..
 
 After you get the blank window, do a view source on the page and see
 what the url is for the image..   I suspect it might be trying to go
to
 comics.com..

  Maybe it has something to do with comics pulled from ucomics.com.
Try
  viewing 'Dick Tracy' using both of the following methods to see if
they
  work:
 
  comx /dicktracy
  or
  comx /dicktracy /nopopup
 
  If neither work, try clearing your browser cache and try again.

RE: [DQSD-Users] RE: x64 Edition version 3.1.9.1 available (for Charlie Russel)

[Charlie Russel]

Nat -- No problem, I'll contact you off list. 

For later or arrivals: There is a version of DQSD that runs natively on
XP x64 Edition, compiled by Kim, and I put together a little batch file
install. If you need it, just ask. (DQSD will not work in 32-bit WOW64
mode, because it needs to attach to the 64-bit task bar. )

[DQSD-Users] COMX - another favourite goes away :(

[Charlie Russel]

Another favourite comic - Cat's with Hands - is no longer working, and
appears to have changed its deployment to something we'll have trouble
with. That makes two of my favourites that don't work -Cats and Zits.

[DQSD-Users] Comx request

Anyone feel up to trying to add Zits to the comx list? It's a King
Features one, so it's not available online at the more normal sources. I
have found it online daily at the Seattle Post Intelligencer
(http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/fun/zits.asp), but parsing the comx.xml
file and figuring out how to get it to work properly is beyond me, I'm
afraid.

[DQSD-Users] x64 Edition version 3.1.9.1 available

[Charlie Russel]

Please contact me off-list if you would like a version of DQSD that runs on 
Windows XP Professional x64 Edition. Thanks to the outstanding efforts of Kim 
Gräsman we have a DQSDTools.dll file that is 64-bit and works in x64 Edition. 
I've put together a crude batch file install for it and I'll provide the whole 
thing to those who need it. 

The mid term goal is to create an msi that can be used to do the install, and a 
longer term goal would be to have a single, platform intelligent, msi that 
would give us a single install for both platforms. But all that will have to 
wait while our day jobs get done for a bit. For the moment, this rough and 
ready batch file is all I could slam out over the weekend. It isn't 
particularly bright, and doesn't give you a choice of where you want to install 
DQSD -- it's going in %ProgramFiles% whether you like it or not. ;) Of course, 
it's just a batch file, with local variables -- change the batch file if you 
need it somewhere else. 

Charlie.

RE: [DQSD-Users] x64 Version, please?!

[Charlie Russel]

Yes, Kim, I have tried it. :(

The problem is that explorer.exe, and thus the desktop and task bar are 64 bit. 
You can't use a 32-bit extension to a 64-bit app -- 64-bit apps can't call 
32-bit dlls, and 32-bit apps can't call 64-bit dlls. So even if the hooks are 
there, they're 64-bit hooks, and can't talk to the 32-bit DQSD. If DQSD were a 
standalone app, it would work. As you say, the vast majority of 32-bit 
applications work just fine. 

There's a known workaround for context menu extensions (right mouse click stuff 
like WinZIP) that allows one to run the 32-bit explorer.exe, but it doesn't 
replace your desktop, only opens a separate window for Windows Explorer that 
runs in the WOW64 subsystem (the 32-bit subsystem, IOW). 

If you need references/pointers to appropriate developer level docs, I can 
probably help, but I am NOT a developer, though I have written C code when I 
absolutely had to. But it was a long, long time ago. 

Charlie.

 Hi Charlie,
 
 I don't know much about Win64, but don't 32-bit apps run cleanly on it?
 As long as the shell has the hooks used by DQSD, it should just work.
 
 Did you try it out?

[DQSD-Users] Error Hotkey registration failed?

[Charlie Russel]

After a system crash yesterday, I am now getting an IE error message
when I enable DQSD: There was a problem initializing the enhanced
keyboard support - some key combinations and hotkeys may not work
(Error: 'Hotkey registration failed')

System is Windows XP Pro SP2. Error occurs after doing the usual SP2
clicking to enable DQSD. I tried re-installing 3191, but that doesn't
seem to have solved anything. Arrow up through the previous searches
works fine, but it's now strictly one-way -- you can't arrow down if you
up-arrow one too far.

  Did you have to reinstall XP? is so, did you install a program the

No and No. No programs were installed or re-installed in the interim.
There was a system crash (I've GOT to get a new DVD recorder, this one
stinks) and when it came back up, the problem was there.

Monty Scroggins delicately suggests RTFM...

 I _think_here have been posts about this problem in the past.  I can't
 remember what the problem/fix was..   Can you go to the list archive
and
 search around?  You might find some info that will help..
 
 http://www.mail-archive.com/dqsd-users@lists.sourceforge.net/

Got it in one, Monty, thanks! Changed OneNote to autostart for this
particular project I'm on that I'm using it a lot for. And it got itself
loaded before DQSD got there. I only saw it after the crash, since that
was the first reboot after the change to OneNote. So I changed the
hotkey to Win-Q for QuickSearch in preferences.js, and all is well and
happy.

[DQSD-Users] bugmenot?

[Charlie Russel]

Has anyone done a bugmenot search for DQSD? I don't really feel up to
creating my own right now, but it would be a useful one.

[DQSD-Users] 64-bit version?

[Charlie Russel]

With the pending release of the x64 version of Windows XP and Server
2003, is there any chance of a version of DQSD that will run on x64
Windows? I confess, I'm not willing to move to x64 Windows as my primary
workstation until I have DQSD working there.

[Charlie Russel]

Actually, you can prove this to yourself.
Click Allow Active Content to enable dqsd. Now, type ? into the search window,
to bring up help  bingo, it prompts you, again.

Kim, by refuse I *do* mean the first thing you said, not
the second--i.e., the
security issue; not the annoyance. 

I *do* trust you, intentions-wise; but I'd feel more comfortable in the
correctness
department if you could site some authority or other evidence to support that
by
clicking allow active content I'm issuing page-specific, and not
global, permission.

 Hi Paul,
 
 FWIW, Allow Blocked Content is currently the safest way of making DQSD
work.
 It only allows the current executing page (as opposed to the application
 running DQSD, or the system as a whole) to do whatever it tries to do, and
 trust me, you can trust us. :)
 
 If, by refuse, you mean that you can't bear the annoyance of
have to
 Allow, then I hear you. We're working on it!
 
 Kim

  Thanks for the info Brent. Since I absolutely refuse to
  Allow Blocked Content, I guess I'll have to wait for 3.2
  before I can escape from the Google Deskbar.

RE: [DQSD-Users] DQSD 3.1.9 BETA-1

[Charlie Russel]

Something else going on there, then. Thats
the way it 3.1.8 behaves here, certainly. I admit, I have downloaded but not
yet installed the 3.1.9 beta.

Thanks, Charlie. That would have been
exactly what I wanted, except it didnt work. First of all, as soon as I
approved dqsd, I got an error about being unable to load the
enhanced keyboard or something. It said that some combinations of hotkeys might
not work. Then, when as you suggested, I entered just a question mark as the
search, I got an IE Script Error message.

RE: [DQSD-Users] Fix for XP SP2 Problem

[Charlie Russel]

The Rev Chuck Baker states:
 
 I downloaded the comx and racetv searches and they both worked for
me.
 and my calendar works too. and I do have SP2 installed. so if other
people
 are having problems with these searches it is probably because activeX
is
 disabled by default in SP2. But you can enable activeX through the
 internet options panel.
 

No way would I consider enabling ActiveX on my desktop globally.
Especially since it's nearly impossible to run as less than local admin.
That's a recipe for quietly having a zombie some day, or even a root kit
installed. I'm willing to let a specific application (ie, DQSD) run one
or more ActiveX components on my desktop, but it stops there. If we
can't find a more long term solution to the problem, I'm quite willing
to either give up the calendar (a minor loss, for me personally), or
click twice during logon, and if/when I open help. An annoyance, but
hardly life altering. A root kit on my machine would quickly become life
altering. So count me in favour of releasing a version with rolled up
fixes, with or without a more long term solution to the SP2 problem. 

Charlie.
