SlyControl 2.3+
UDP Control plugin
ShortcutEvent

--------------------------------------------------------------
Description:

Primary idea of creating UdpEvents, was to have a server part
for ShortcutEvents. But it also can be used, for
remote-controlling SlyControl, over Network. UDP was chosen,
because of simplicity. All network communication is written,
using plain WinSock API.

ShortcutEvents was intended, for using in Windows Shortcuts.
For example, you can create a shortcut containing
'ShEvent START,MyAPP,0'
and add SlyControl hook, for starting that application. In hook,
you can write custom initialization scripts, and even more.

Also you can use the ShEvents, for controlling SlyControl
on remote computer. See Configuration for details.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Use:

ShEvent Data

where Data is comma separated values of Type,ID,Param and ExtParams.
See Protocol for details.

Plugin part (UdpEvents) must be started (UdpEvents.Start), in
order for SlyControl to receive events.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Configuration:

Use Plugin Setup dialog, for changing configuration. Configuration
are stored in 'udp.ini'. Port entry are shared for UdpEvents and
ShEvent. RemoteHost is used by ShEvent. BoundIP is used by UdpEvents.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Security:

For plugin, it's strongly recommended, not to change the BoundIP.
It is the address, passed to Bind() API, specifying, wich physical
address to use. Specifying 0.0.0.0 will listen on all IP addresses,
allowing Events to be recieved from internet. If you use 127.0.0.1
you will receive only Events, sent from loopback interface (that is
127.0.0.1).

If you have decided to use the events-over-network, use some
firewall program, for security. In firewall settings, make, first
to accept UDP packets from [ip-of-computer-running-shevents] to
port [Port-in-inifile] and then to drop any other UDP
packets from [any-ip-address] to the [Port-ini-inifile].

Recommended value of BoundIP: 127.0.0.1
--------------------------------------------------------------
Protocol:

Type,ID[,Parameter[,ExtParam1[,ExtParam2[,ExtParam3[,ExtParam4]]]]]

Type - Event Type e.g. REMOTE, or KEY
ID - Event ID, e.g. TV, SCAN, ZOOM
Parameter - Event Parameter. Value, returned by hook. e.g. 0,1,2.
ExtParam1-4 - Extended parameters. Use quotes for strings. e.g. 'a',0,'zz'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Events: Any events.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Actions: No Actions.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Examples:

SlyControl Script:

TestEvent = Hook( "TEST", "EVENT", Enabled, Break ){
OSD.ActionManual("TEST EVENT: <%s> <%s> <%d>",@1,@2,@3)
}

Shortcut target:
"C:\Program Files\SlyControl2\Plugins\UdpEvents\ShEvent.exe" "TEST,EVENT,0,'Testing','extended events',555"

Output:
TEST EVENT: <Testing> <extended events> <555>
SlyControl 2.3+
Screen plugin
Copyright (C) Atis Lezdins aka xAM
--------------------------------------------------------------
Use: Useful, for automated changing of resolution. I created it,
because i had apps, that looks poor, on 1024x768, where i
normally work. Now, i write a small slycontrol script, that
changes resolution and starts app. When WinMon detects, that
app is closed, resolution is switched back.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Events:

Default type: "SCREEN"

CALLBACK_ALL

Event Value: 0
Ext parameter 1: Width and Height e.g. "640x480"
Ext parameter 2: Bits per pixel e.g. 32, 16, 8, 4
Ext parameter 3: Screen refresh rate (Vertical frequency) e.g. 100, 60

--------------------------------------------------------------
Actions:

ActionManual("ChangeRes_[Permanent|Temporal]" "XxY", [BPP, [Refresh]] )
ActionManual(Value )


Commands:
The following commands return numeric
value of requested screen parameter.
---------------------------------------
WIDTH - Returns screen Width
HEIGHT - Returns screen Height
BITSPERPIXEL - Returns screen bpp
FREQUENCY - Returns screen frequency
---------------------------------------
ALL - Raises CALLBACK_ALL event, requires at least
new resolution specified specified in second
parameter.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Example:
IExplore = Group ( Enabled ){
OnGroupEnable(){ WinMon.StartPreset("IExplore") }

IexploreStart = Hook("WINMON","IEXPLORE_CREATE",Enabled,Break){
Screen.ActionManual("CHANGERES_PERMANENT","1280x1024",32,85)
h = WinMon.ActionPreset("IEXPLORE")
WinCtrl.ActionManual( "MAXIMIZE", h )
}
IexploreClose = Hook("WINMON","IEXPLORE_CLOSE",Enabled,Break){
h=WinMon.ActionPreset("IEXPLORE")
Break(h<>0)
Screen.ActionManual("CHANGERES_PERMANENT","1024x768",32,100)
}
}

Description:
This example requires WinMon to be configured to watch Internet Explorer.
Whe IE is launched, resolution is switched to 1280x1024, 32 bits-per-pixel,
and 85 Hertz vertical refresh rate. When all instances of internet explorer
is closed, resolution is set to 1024x768, 32 bits per pixel, and 100 Hertz.

Example:

Res = Hook("SCREEN","CALLBACK_ALL",Enabled, Break, 1){
OSD.ActionManual("%s, %d bpp, %d Hz",@1,@2,@3)
}

ShowRes = Hook( "KEY", "Ctrl+Alt+R", Enabled, Break ){
Screen.ActionManual("ALL")
}

Description:
This example shows current screen parameters.

Clock plugin v1.0
Copyright (C) Atis Lezdins aka xAM
--------------------------------------------------------------
Use: The "FMT" action can be used, for displaying current time
if you're watching TV, no need to minimize your TV-program.

YEAR,DATE,MONTH,HOUR,MINUTE,SECOND can be used for displaying
welcome screens, that differ, depending from time of day, etc.
It's not reccommended, to use them for displaying time. Use
FMT instead. Maybe also as primitive random-generator.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Events:

Default type: "CLOCK"

CALLBACK_FMT

Event Value: 0
Ext parameter 1: Formatted date and/or time

--------------------------------------------------------------
Actions:

ActionManual( Command, [format] )

Commands:
The following commands return numeric
value of requested date component.
---------------------------------------
YEAR - Returns current year
MONTH - Returns current month
DATE - Returns current date
HOUR - Returns current hour
MINUTE - Returns current minute
SECOND - Returns current second
---------------------------------------
FMT - Raises CALLBACK_FMT event, requires format
to be specified in second parameter. See Remarks.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Example:
Clock = Hook( "CLOCK", "", Enabled, Break ){
OSD.ActionManual( "%s", @1 )
}

ShowClock = Hook( "REMOTE", "SCAN", Enabled, Break ){
Break( ShowClock <> 0 )
Clock.ActionManual( "FMT", "hh/mm/yyyy hh:nn:ss:zzz" )
}

Output: 27/01/2003 10:22:04:172

Example:
Welcome = Hook( "REMOTECFG","START", Enabled){
h = Clock.ActionManual("hour")
s = Math.ActionManual("x/6",h)
skip(3,s=0)
skip(4,s=1)
skip(5,s=2)
skip(6,s=3)
OSD.ActionManual("Woohaa, time for vampires!")
Break()
OSD.ActionManual("Good morning, sir.")
Break()
OSD.ActionManual("Welcome back, commander. Welcome back!")
Break()
OSD.ActionManual("What's on the evening news?")
Break()
}

Output: from 00:00-06:59 (night) : Woohaa, time for vampires!
from 07:00-11:59 (morning) : Good morning, sir.
from 12:00-17:59 (day) : Welcome back, commander. Welcome back!
from 18:00-23:59 (evening) : What's on the evening news?
