| SpeNak in a "Nutshell" |
| Start a group of programs in the order you want when you want how you want. |
| What SpeNak does |
SpeNak enables you to start a group of programs starting each the number of
seconds after starting SpeNak that you specify. |
So you can start a group of programs ...
- in order
- tidily (compared with a batch file)
- one after another, spaced the number of seconds you want
- how you want (minimized, maximized etc)
... all through a simple to create and use script file. |
| Using SpeNak |
Usage:
SpeNak ProgramToRun.snk |
Use your favorite text editor to create a SpeNak file (ProgramsToRun.snk in the
example above), the format is as follows:
If the first line contains ...
<Hidden> then SpeNak will run invisibly (after trial period only registered
version can run hidden).
<Pause> then SpeNak will display a "Pause" button enabling pausing.
<NoQuit> then SpeNak will not display a "Quit" button and can not be closed
until all items have been started.
<CanHide> then SpeNak will display a "Hide" button that will hide SpeNak when
clicked (after trial period only registered version can be hidden).
These can be combined (but if you select hidden you will not be able to see any
buttons). |
Otherwise lines need to be as detailed:
Executable,[StartAtSeconds],[StartVisibility],[Directory],[Parameters] |
Items in [] are optional but to use an option later in a line you need to have
the separating ','s.
The options for StartVisibility are:
Min - Minimimized
Max - Maximized
Norm - Normal
Hide - Hidden |
| Lines starting with ; are ignored |
| Save the file as WhatEverNameYouWant.snk |
Example ...
<Hidden><Pause>
