Hello,
I found a magic trick for windows… it use WMIC.

Using WMIC, it is possible to list out all the running processes and their parameters!

The following command-line outputs the list of running processes (with the complete command-line arguments used for each process) to a text file:

ffmpeg.exe -y -i “DEC_M6_U1_L3_R.avi” [...] “DEC_M6_U1_L3_R.mp4″

I’m happy!

Yes!
It’s double right click!

In this snippet you can use right double click to “go back” on your web browser!
It’s a stupid tricks, but it’s very useful!

Here we go!

As usually, copy and paste this snippet in your windows application.

First of all, you must include this libs:

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Diagnostics;

Ok, this is first part of code, used to catch mouse event with windows API like kernel32.dll and user32.dll.

After that, create two simple method that invoke mouse hook:

…you can view that in HookCallback function there is a method that use “%{LEFT}”, this is equivalent to ALT+LEFTARROW, used to go back in web browser.

SendKeys.Send( “%{LEFT}” );

When is detected a double right click, the program send to the system the ALT+LEFTARROW keys. If you are in a browser, you go back!

Finally,
in you form init, insert this lines

that starting the mouse hook.

Perfect! Compile and test it!

If you like this tricks, add it in Windows Autorun!

As a Linux user, you may have to get the following error:

bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long

There are a lot of methods to resolve this issue, but I use this stupid and simple one:

Here the code (copy, type vi rmany.sh, paste the code):

You need to make it executable (chmod +x rmany.sh) and optionally add it as alias (alias rmany=’./rmany.sh’).

Your input is rmany [EXTENSION] [COMMAND]

Hello!

if you like linux or mac os, you should also like the windows dragging cool trick right?

In linux you can drag windows anywhere by pressing ALT+CLICK… I’m not sure, but it should be the same thing in OS X.

Googling around… I found an interesting article in howtogeek.com that explains how to do that in Windows OS!!

The original script is here:
http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/scripts/EasyWindowDrag.htm

Oh, you want the complete package?

Ok ok… click here, extract it and put it in Autorun of your Winz.

If you want to write and compile you personalized version, I have coded a C# version, easy to use!

First of all, include Win32API in your code. This library is needed to send events to external windows.

After that, set a timer and call GetForegroundWindow() just like this:

Now, create the KeyHook listener class:

Ok. Now, run it on Form_Load():

and create OkKeyPress event:

It’s all!

When the ALT key is detected, the program will launch a SendMessage( handle, 0xa1, 0×2, 0 ) passing the control (handle) of the foreground window and… you can move it!

Oh, by the way, you can also move an opened Windows’ Start Menu!
You don’t believe me? Watch this!!!

happy summer.
