Search as-you-type through files
$30-100 USD
Paid on delivery
I need a little program, in whatever programming language you want*, that filters out a list of files on my HD, as-I-type the search string.
The graphical interface must be like (very similar to) the attached image.
I try to describe it here with words:
on the top (1cm): an input text box when I write one or more folders (comma delimited)
just under the top (1cm): an input text box when I write a string
on the rest of the page: the resulting filtered list of files
Requisites:
1 - for every key I press in the "Search string" field it must update the results (real-time, as-I-type, as I already saw in some Javascript applications on the web)
2 - the height and width of the window must be changeable and the content consequently adjusted (as web pages do...)
3 - the program must be light and fast (no more than half a second for filtering 100 files, for each key press)
4 - when the Search string is empty it must show all the files (unfiltered)
5 - double-clicking on a file must open it. Right-clicking on a file must show a menu with atleast "Open" and "Rename" and both these actions ("Open" and "Rename") must work as in Windows Explorer. Slow double-click (or better: selection+singleclick) must "rename" it as Windows Explorer does.
6 - the line on the top with "Folders (comma delimited):" and its input text box must graphically be *half* a size respect to the attached image (I made it in equal size only because I wasn't able to change its size in making this example)
7 - I must be able to launch the program specifing the folders in the command-line (example: [login to view URL] -folder:"c:dir1, c:dir2, c:windowsfoobar"). The Folders field must be autofilled consequently as soon as the program starts.
8 - I must be able to launch multiple independant istances of the program, each with different command-line option (ie each searching on different folders)
* Note: someone told me that you can't do it in Javascript because it don't work on local files and that if you use VB Script with the File System Object you'll get a security warning. I don't want these problems therefore don't use these languages.
Escrow offered and released after receiving the source code and the fully operational executable.
