AutoPatcher Forum

Hello!
You are really doing a great job, guys!
But there is still room for some improvement.
I have mentioned this before: It is too easy to pick a wrong language by mistake.
Now there is a new version of apup.exe, and the languages are still mixed ...
I suppose it would actually be EASY to sort them up as shown in the attachment.

All the best to all of you

Ehm... your list is similar to old list. We have sorted the releases in chronological order (2000, XP, etc).
I must talk to Cristiano about...

in deed, the list was sorted in this way:

Name=AutoPatcher per Windows 2000 SP4 (x86)
Date=20100205
DetectFile=2k_x86_ita.rti
DetectHash=
WindowsVersion=2K_X86
SystemLanguage=Italian
OfficeVersion=ANY
OfficeLanguage=ANY
Script=http://www.autopatcher.com/releases/italian/autopatcher_2k_ita_20100112.script
Size=Calculating
APUPVersion=1.3

Name=AutoPatcher for Windows XP SP3 (x86)
Date=20100225
DetectFile=xp_sp3_enu.rti
DetectHash=
WindowsVersion=XP_X86
SystemLanguage=English
OfficeVersion=ANY
OfficeLanguage=ANY
Script=http://www.autopatcher.com/releases/english/win_xp/autopatcher_xp_sp3_enu_20100302.script
Size=243 MB
APUPVersion=1.3

apup has an feature that allows remember your selections. an idea may be choose that feature, in options. then, will be impossible do any mistake

That does not change my mind ...
Sorting according to languages definitely appears both more logical and more helpful!
So why not go back to the better?

I don't agree that your position is better. I, for one, rather sort by version - that's my position and opinion (which we all have).

guys, please... that old way of sorting was an nightmare. anyone looking for an specific version was forced to keep looking over and over the releases list to find an thing that could be done easily, if sorted by OS/language

by the way: the releases list wasn't sorted by language. the non english versions was at the end of that list, only that

I haven't looked at apup's source code since before the new ini was created but I think it would be possible to "hide" items based on the OS locale. From there, an option to "unhide" entries might be a good idea. Choosing this option could then create an entry in the ini. Whatcha think?

well, it's an idea. and, in fact, it could be interesting. it will be noted
