“Introduction to SonicFileFinder” article live on DotNetSlackers.com
in SonicFileFinder onRead moreA few weeks ago Sonu Kapoor from DotNetSlackers.com asked me to write an article about SonicFileFinder (a Visual Studio 2005 add-in I wrote). I finally found some time to get it done last weekend and it’s online now.
The article is a short introduction about the idea and the main features of SonicFileFinder.

First donation for SonicFileFinder
in SonicFileFinder, Tools onRead moreThis is big day in the history of the SonicFileFinder development. I received the first donation from a colleague of mine. 😀
He handed me three cans of a nice bio-parfait I ate from time to time, but it wasn’t available at my local market anymore. Gerhard found them in a market nearby his home town and here they are:
Thank you Gerhard, I really appreciate this!
If you’d like to make a donation yourself and don’t know what food to buy, you may also pick some non-food stuff from my amazon wishlist…
P.S: No, I don’t want to hear any jokes about dog-food(ing) 😉
IE7 Add-Ons I cannot live without
Read moreIn the dawning of IE7 there has to be some serious enhancing and tweaking to be done, right?
Inline Search For Internet Explorer
After completely migrating from Firefox to IE7, I immediately missed Firefox’s inline search feature. Why didn’t Microsoft think of that? Luckily there is http://www.ieaddons.com/, a site hosting Add-Ons for Internet Explorer 7. Guess what? There is an Add-On providing Inline Search For Internet Explorer which works like a charm!
Just use Ctrl-F as usual, but instead of the normal IE search popup you get a search box at the bottom left of the browser window. Hitting F4 let’s you navigate through all locations matching the entered search text. Shift+F4 does the same in upward direction.
Bloglines Browser Plug-In
Did I mention that I really love Bloglines? There is an Bloglines Browser Plug-In for subscribing RSS feeds with one click and add them to your Bloglines account.
It integrates into the feed view of IE7: When visiting a website with an news feed attached, the feed button is highlighted and active.
Click on it and you’ll see a preview of the feed content. In addition to the “Subscribe to this feed” link there is now a link “Subscribe to this feed in Bloglines”.
1st blogging anniversary
in General onRead moreWell, well, as time goes by. While trying out Windows Vista, I just missed my 1st blogging anniversary. My first post was on October 3rd 2005, but I guess it’s not to late as I’m still in a one week radius 😉
While writing a “larger” blog post like Code Snippets – the whole enchilada is really hard work, I must say that it’s really worth it realizing that people actually read the stuff you wrote.
Also the very positive feedback I got on my first published tool called SonicFileFinder really keeps me going.
Thank you all for reading / using my stuff and I hope you stay tuned for things to come.
Regards
JensSonicFileFinder 1.2.5 released
Read moreSonicFileFinder is a free add-in for Visual Studio 2005 that allows a fast and convenient search for any file within every Project of the loaded Solution by entering the complete filename or just a part of it. The found file(s) can either be edited with a single keystroke or a Windows Explorer can be opened at the file’s location.
What’s new?
This release contains some minor bugfixes.
- FIXED: Support for multi-monitor systems in popup window mode. The position of the popup window is now stored individually for each monitor.
- FIXED: “Tripple-click” problem in project file list. A double-click on a project file now works even if the file list didn’t have the focus.
Download it on the SonicFileFinder website.
