For me, the voice recorder seems to be the quickest way
to quickly get information into my PPC6700.
However, it is not the best place to be reminded or for
long term storage of searchable data. What I needed was
a way to remind myself that I have new voice messages that
I needed to put into my calendar, todo or contact
applications or other.
I wrote this nscriptm script in order to fulfill that task
and I post it here in hopes that others find it useful and
improve upon it. I used the examples included with
nscriptm. You will need nscriptm in order to run this
script.
It has the following features:
- Search /My Documents and /Storage Card/My Documents
for recording*.wav and recoring*.mp3. The paths can
be easily changed in the script.
- For each recording found, prompt the user to:
- auto-rename recording to "yyyymmddhhmmss.wav/mp3"
- skip recording
- play recording
- exit entirely
- If it finds recordings then prompts to run the notes application (yes/no).
- schedules itself in windows notification queueto run in one hour
or tomorrow morning if after 10PM. (Reminder: Gotta fix leap day..). This
is easy to turn off if you have your own scheduling app.
Let me know if you find this useful or make improvements.
Note: File name should be findrec.ns but needed to put .txt extension.
EDIT: The best way to run this script is from a shortcut with
"/path/ns.exe" and parameters "/o /path/findrec.ns ". so it
does not display the console and is completely silent if there
is nothing to report. You should also modify the script so
that it runs itself through the shortcut when it's scheduled to
run again.

EDIT3: Get nScript here:
http://s-k-tools.com/freeware/nscriptm.zip.
I installed it in /storage card/nscriptm and ran the install.ns script
in order to have file associations set up.
EDIT: Did I mention that this is ALPHA code? Well, it is so use accordingly. Fixed a bug and added new version.
