Overview

Event Manager is a program to help you remember your appointments, birthdays, special events and aniversaries.

It is a light weight reminder program that supports powerfull options to create repeatable events. It can also be used to run applications or scripts at a scheduled time. This can be usefull to run backups or to defragment your hard drives on a regular basis.

Event Notification Options:

• Audio notification (also allows the user to add their own custom .wav files if they choose)
• Visual tray popup notification
• Execute an application or script

Event Manager is very simple to use unlike other bloat-ware reminder applications… just unzip it and its ready to go! This also makes it perfect to copy it to a USB pen drive for a truly portable application.

UPGRADE NOTE: If you used the execute feature in the previous version, you will need to re-add those settings to your events.

Changes

• Keep your events safe with auto backups
• Improved GUI (minor changes to the look)
• Changed the look of the notify window and how it works (e.g. snoozing events will be much easier)
• Updated that experimental time picker ctrl on the edit event form (it will be more usable)
• Fixed a bug where if you were using 24hr clock you couldn’t set an event time for 12am
• Added a system wide hot key (Ctrl + Shift + E) which allows you to create an event using selected text in any other application (useful to create new events from emails or web pages etc)
• Configurable notify window transparency
• If EM is run for the first time some default categories are created and a new welcome event is created
• You can now execute an application with an event without showing a pop-up (optional)
• Added functionallity to create scripts to execute directly within Event Manager (no more hunting for lost batch files)
