When you create a project in MPLABX, quite a few files are created within the project folder. After some trial and error testing, I found that the only files really necessary for MPLABX to open a project are these:
<ProjectName>.X (this is the project folder)
<ProjectName>.X\Makefile
<ProjectName>.X\nbproject\configurations.xml
<ProjectName>.X\nbproject\project.xml
 
Items to ignore would be these:
# MPLABX folders
build
disassembly
dist
private
# MPLABX files
funclist
project.properties
Package*.bash
Makefile*.mk
Makefile*.properties
 
(MPLABX is based on Netbeans version 6, so I imagine Netbeans projects may have similar file sets. I'm not familiar with other types of Netbeans projects, so I'm just guessing here.)

Timer

The timer can count up from a time in the past or count down towards a time in the future.

The timer's appearance and the format of the time (and text) is very configurable. You can hide it's border, it's background, set the color and glow effects.

Sound Recorder

This is a simple recorder that records directly to an MP3 file. Recording can be paused and resumed.

The recording window has a compact mode and can be set to stay on top of other windows, so it can be out of the way, yet still visible.

When done recording, you can playback the recording or upload the file to an FTP site.

RocketDock with multiple bars\docks

Submitted by drew on

It seems there is plenty of interest about how to make RocketDock work with two or more docks or bars. Most answers say to use additional docking programs--one for each dock you want. Or use a commercial program that offers multiple docks. I think RocketDock is excellent except I want more than one. I finally figured out how to do it!
