Attached is an
HTML Application intended for running different (or
multiple) configurations of NetStumbler. For example, if sometimes you wimp out with a D-Link and a DigiTraveler GPS, and other times you are allowed the privilege of a supported ORiNOCO and a SiRFstar III-based USB or Bluetooth GPS.
Instructions: Simply rename it to
ns04helper.hta (or nearly any other name ending with .hta) and double click it. Configure NetStumbler as desired, then use the Helper to Capture it. Configure differently, and Capture again. Then Load at any time.
There is (as of the initial offering) one configuration item: the number of
Profiles to keep. Change as needed. One could argue that the icon location (4th line) is also somewhat configurable - I just hardcoded the path to where netstumbler.exe is stored by default.
Configuration settings are stored in the registry as siblings of the normal NetStumbler settings, but with the configuration number as a prefix. In the initial release, it's only storing Device, Script, and GPS info, but more could be added.
Currently, it only executes NetStumbler.exe, but other possibilities could be added (e.g.
XPort3 or
GPSGate or
MapPoint or
Roadnav). If you'd find that useful, please post a sample GUI mockup.
Send feedback, and enjoy!
Newsflash: see last post! (I'll edit this later.)
