Version 0.6 is up.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/inittemplatep5/

This update fixes the "extra null" bug reported by Jo Wood.

Thanks to Jo :)

Version 0.7 is up :)

Hi Ceropecero, i am a big fan or your tool. Is there the chance you are going to update it to work with Processing 1.5?

Hi cedric, I was not aware that Processing was updated, so I'll work on the tool to see if there i any issue.

InitSketch was updated to version 0.8

While you are here: I really like the tool and always meant to ask whether it would be possible to have more than one template? I typically have three different start templates that I'd like to use with your tool.

Pretty cool. that was fast! thanks man

Multiple templates seems like a good idea, I think I can have it working in a couple of weeks (I'm not a full time coder, not even half time)

I have a working 0.9 version with the new multiple templates feature support, there is some more testing and polishing to be done to it, but now you can be quite assured this is coming soon.

Version 0.9 is up and ready to go:

This is great. Thanks very much for working on this!

Here it is!

I got a silly request :)

now a serious one:

oops missed that.

Hi guys, I haven't used Processing in ages, do these tools still work at all?

I think I can dedicate time to making them into a single tool, If the old API is still in place. The email I had linked to this forum was inactive so I realize there were new answers until now.

Peace!

still works!

Alright so now that Processing is at 2.0 I will tray and get some time off to give maintenance to these tools, and very probably move the code to GitHub, which is way coller than source forge with all the social features over there.

I will get some time this weekend and let you guys know about the repo so you can also fork it any time and send me your pull requests with improvements and so on. Cheers!

PS:
I hope I can still program in Java, have been doind PHP for years now lol

Just a quick notice to all, this tool has been recoded, renamed and moved to Github. It's now called Bootstrap, and has the very same functionality. You can find it here: http://poifox.com/bootstrap

When I try to use the new Bootstrap tool I get an error:

I think this is a windows only bug. I will take a look at the code on monday when I get to my main PC.

It seems to be an initialization problem. I guess the filesystem for windows gives a different path result than the *nix filesystems. For some reason this ends up calling a null value in loadstrings but for the life of me I can't figure out where it's coming from.

An interesting note about the error :

- first run (after starting processing) I just get the error

- second run I get the window with a selection dropdown that has 2 duplicate entries for my only template (setupdraw.txt). When I select the template I get the error

- third run there are now 3 identical entries for setupdraw

etc.

Is there someone else with windows that can try to replicate this bug? I'm starting to think this is a hidden problem with the PDE beta.
