I use Feedreader from a USB as I have a home PC, a Laptop and a work PC I all work from
All have different proxy's etc and each time I connect to Feedreader I have to manually update the connection which is a pain. Please, PLEASE add a feature where you get the settings automatically from IE so that I dont have to change this each time
Assume others are in the same boat !
Although already asked in the past, I still can find no solution.
Could you add a command line instruction to update all feeds in the database.
An option to specify which database and which proxy to use would be a huge plus.
For example, the command line would be like this:
"C:\Program Files\Feedreader\feedreader.exe" "D:\Database\Feedreader\RSSENGINE.FDB" /proxy "http:\\myproxy.com" /proxyport 8080
Same problem here, it would be nice if internet settings (proxy) could be detected from IE (useful when using Feedreader as a portable app).
no problema
copy feedreader.exe and rename them
feedreader_laptop.exe
feedreader_pc.exe
feedreader_work.exe
(or something else like (FR_proxy)
and make 3 configfiles
feedreader_laptop.ini
feedreader_pc.ini
feedreader_work.ini
(have to be the same name as the .exe)
..with different proxy settings
run the desired one
This is not enough, Vidar2, please make all this (proxy setting, location of the database) available as parameters of the command line.
not enough ? :-)
first there are hardly any no commandlines in FR
2) it's a good soultion for people who want to use proxy, i dont want it !!
i hope FR will fix the bugs first, then some new goodies, then maybe your suggestion
also..why don't you send a large sum of euros to their paypal account ask nicely..
or why dont you fix it YOUR self ? you have the .ini file, and obviously it's to toguh to keep 3 FR.exe separate..so why dont you build something own with for example http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/index.shtml
:-)
Interesting....
Cool down, I do not want to offend... First point, I am not sending euros for a software with so little updates in the past months... It is not a question of money, but motivation of the dev team. If you want to talk about bugs, be my guest, just look at my past threads, many are still open.
Thanks for the autoitscript suggestion. I did just that. One line of code in the script to enable the proxy:
IniWrite("C:\[path]\Feedreader\feedreader.ini", "conf", "proxyEnabled", "1")
I hope that will benefit others too. That way, you do not need to maintain several .ini files, only 1 is enough.
