Pick Random Line
1 Attachment(s)
Takes input either from a file (drag and drop on the executable supported) or from typing with one "item" per line. Click on "Pick One" and it will select a random line and place it in the result textbox where it can be copied/manipulated. This is great for having a computer make up your mind when you can't.
Requires .NET Framework 4.0 (Client Profile). http://img.techpowerup.org/120809/pi...line_1_1_0.png Weighted Lines
Version history: -1.2.0: Fixed bug where last line wouldn't be picked if not using weights. Added drag and drop for files on the file name box and text on the main text box. -1.1.0: Added the ability to weight lines. See the above "spoiler" for details. -1.0.0: First release. |
Uploaded 1.1.0. It nows supports weighting lines. Details of how to use that feature are in the "Weighted Lines" spoiler. If you don't use that feature, it is functionally identical to 1.0.0.

Just get married. You will never have to make up your mind again. She will do it for you and you don't even need to install .NET Framework 4.0

So Ford this would be good for picking a winner for the next game giveaway? I'm all for it if so!
|
Yeah, that's what it was originally created for. The weighting was added to make it easier to decide what game to play (lower weights for games we've already beat/started).

Very cool, I'll try it out this weekend! Thanks

Hey Ford, beer me a minute of your time (haha, Office reference). Can you look to see if you get the same thing that i'm getting... If i input say 10 numbers/names, it seems to never choose the last one. I tried with 4, 10, and 11 entries. These are just normal, nonweighted entries. Maybe it's user error, but i'd appreciate the insight.

You're right. I'm sure I checked for that but must have some how broke it. I'll see about fixing it.
Also, I wanted to add drag n drop support so I might as well do that too while I'm at it. |

With the other issue, the temporary workaround is to just add another line, anything I suppose, and it'll suite me just fine. Thanks for looking into, and thanks for the great utility, really good for giveaways lol! :toast: |

Bug confirmed.
http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/at...1&d=1345661849 It just won't pick that last line ;) |
Typical little utility to write for when you have too much time on your hands. I like it. :)
@mailman: it sounds like you need to move on to Wife 2.0. ;) |

1.2 uploaded which fixes that bug and adds drag and drop support.
Edit: Also fixed the bug where it would show an empty line in the result box. Quote:
