One click direct from cold desktop to unread posts only

Postby Henni » Wed Jun 06, 2007 11:56 am

Hi everyone,

I know this is not rocket science, but I've just discovered the following:

When you open the home page of this forumn, on the right hand top you'll find the following shortcut: "View posts since last visit".

Right click on this shortcut and select "copy shortcut"

Now close everything, go to your desktop, right click and select "Paste shortcut"

Use this link next time you want to visit this forumn and viola! you see only what you need & want to see!

For a quick demo, just click here: search.php?search_id=newposts&sid=c25e4 ... 00d1b60108

Regards,

Henni

With a Mac you get a shortcut macro which is easy to learn ie "apple key and whatever assigned key straight to a application...

Why play with MSDOS (windows) as itss oh so backward..?

Hi Zulu1,

Being in C&I Project Engineering I spend most of my day in front a computer. Unfortunately every operating system I use for any coding is based on Windows as the main platform - hence no interest in the Mac systems. I think that most experience the same and that's why Windows is still used & preferred by most - not because it's a better system, because it might just not be so.

Ouch, food for thort, how can an OS be preferred if the people doing the preferring haven't tried out anything other than their preferred OS...can we still call it preferred? :wink:
