After a long wait, it is here. This version was very complex to do, and I hope I did everything properly. I’ve tried a fix on x64 systems, so let me know if you still encounter problems.
Please read the changelog, as well as the help file (AniFetch.chm) to understand the changes (especially operators).

I’ll release a minor update in a few days, regarding the program and the registry. Right now the “Launch AniFetch on startup” option writes an entry in your windows registry, but if you uninstall the program, the key won’t be deleted (yet). Gotta fix this.
Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback/reported bugs. Hope you’ll enjoy this new version.

Changelog :
Thanks to Anon, Knoobie and rhizzu for their ideas regarding this version, and everyone else for their feedback/bug reporting.
[Released] Version 1.3.0.0.
[Fixed] Numerous code improvements and other minor bug fixes.
[Fixed] “Subscript used with non-array variable” errors when a wrong Start/End tag was specified.
[Fixed] “AniFetch.exe” not found after an update, on 64 bits versions of Windows.
[Fixed] When the notification window was visible, buttons would not trigger until the window had dissapeared.
[Fixed] The notification sound would incorrectly play in some cases.
[Updated] Additionnal code when clicking on the “Get Source :” button. It should work better now (or so I hope).
[Updated] “(” and “)” symbols are now correctly parsed (omission) when reading the RSS source code.
[Updated] Helpfile “Anifetch.chm”.
[Added] Smart error detection regarding Start/End tags for the Title and Torrent sections. The program will tell you when they are not filled correctly.
[Added] Option to start AniFetch on Windows startup.
[Added] Option to choose where the notification window should appear (it properly takes the taskbar position into account as well).
[Added] Button to “pin” the notification window.
[Added] Button to immediately close the notification window.
[Added] Basic “regex-like” operators for the keyword section (+ and -).

Finally, it is done (;ﾟAﾟ). Let’s pray that I didn’t break anything.
The installer and the .exe files are no longer compressed. While this makes the files a bit bigger, it should prevent some false positive detections from several anti-virus softwares.

I recommend that you clean your history (using the new button) once you’re done downloading/updating AniFetch. Feel free to give me feedback on the new Help file as well.

Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback on the previous release. This version brings a lot of new features that I’m sure you’ll enjoy.

Changelog :
Thanks to Anon and rhizzu for their ideas regarding this version.
[Released] Version 1.2.0.0
[Updated] Some extra code for URLs which could, sometimes, not be processed properly because of some special characters.
[Added] Helpfile “AniFetch.chm” to help users in using AniFetch.
[Added] New “warn” icon in the tray area. This icon will appear if there is a new notification (only if “Show Notification Window” is unchecked, or if it is checked with the “Only when not in fullscreen” option set.
[Added] Option to hide the notification window, or to only display it when not in full screen (main window).
[Added] Buttons “Fetch Now”, “Minimize to tray” and “Open help file” (main window).
[Added] Buttons “Clear selection” and “Clear all” to clear one or all entries from the history (history window).
[Added] Tag “[:NEW:]” will be added for each new “unread” entry in the history (history window). This will only happen if the option “Show Notification Window” is unchecked, or if it is checked with the “Only when not in fullscreen” option set.
[Removed] UPX compression for AniFetch.exe and Updater.exe, resulting in bigger files, but less false positive detections from anti-viruses softwares.
[Fixed] Typo “Optionnal”

NG Hash Calculator v1.1

Let me know if you encounter any problem.
Thanks !

I will add the Help file (for people who do not want to look at the tutorial video) in the next release of the program.

Changelog :
[Released] Version 1.1.0.1
[Fixed] Conflict where the program would overwrite the “last save path” when using the “Load template” button instead of using the “last load path”.
—————————————————————
[Released] Version 1.1.0.0
[Fixed] Added some string normalizations to prevent some rare errors when fetching data.
[Added] Template support. You can now load and save templates for both the “Add” and “Edit” websites windows. This will load/save all the input fields (8 of them) from/in a file (*.atpl). Program will remember the last directory you used to load or save the templates.

What I had in mind when coding this software was “simplicity” and “fastness”.

Usually, you need to open an explorer window and manually look for the folder containing the file for which you want the hash values to be calculated.

It takes time, and it’s a pain to reach the right folder when you’ve got a lot of files/folders on your computer.
The drag & drop system skips this annoying step. All you have to do is drop the file on the program’s window and that’s it.

NG Hash Calculator

Key Features :
- Drag & Drop system. Faster and easier.
- Compare the calculated values with existing ones.
- Copy the calculated MD5/SHA1/CRC32 values to the clipboard.

Future updates :
- Shell integration
- History of previously calculated values

Note : Some Anti-Virus softwares may wrongly flag AniFetch as a Trojan/Virus. This is because AniFetch is coded using AutoIt (which is often used for bot programs on games). However, here this is a false positive.

I went through a lot of testing, but nothing’s ever perfect. If you have any problem/suggestion/critic, feel free to post them here. Thanks

Finally back home.
Thought it was time to tell you guys about the upcoming stuff :

Winter 2011 Animes Chart :
The polls for the Winter 2011 Animes chart are now closed. Thanks for everyone who voted.
I will be releasing a first image version of the chart soon, and I will update the flash version at the same time, if anything new has appeared.

Software :
I’m almost done coding a little tool for you people. I don’t want to spoil you all the content just yet, but to sum it up, this little program will allow you to be instantly notified whenever a fansub group or the most popular animes torrent sites releases something new that you are specifically interested in.
I still need some extensive testing because sites all behave differently, but I hope to be releasing it soon.

Fansubbing :
I want to release something new, but I’m not satisfied with the quality of the files I’ve found so far, so this may take a while.

The usual :
Pictures of the day, Japanese Artists, etc.. as always.

And..
Some other stuff I probably forgot. I always forgot things
