Tasks and Scripts

[dominicv]

Good evening Folks,

Would it be possible to have a section or specific area of the board dedicated to

TASKS & SCRIPTS

This area would enable users to post their examples of tasks and scripts they have found to be useful, so instead of searching throughout the board, everything would be in this section.


The main reason for this section, is to provide new users and old with examples, in order to reduce the learning curve required to master HouseBot.

At the rate I learn things based on reading instruction, I will be old and grey by the time I achieve my goal, now hold on a second, I am already old and grey.

Just a thought.

There is a section on the main site (http://www.housebot.com) under the downloads section that has some user scripts and configuration imports that you might find useful.

Thanks Scott,

I had just assumed that by having all information pertaining to tasks and script located in the same section would be a lot easier for everybody.

Here is a better idea, since I am the one always looking for info, and help, how about if you send me the info.

Therefore :

To All Users, If you wish to help an old man, in dire strait of learning this program, you can send me your task and script examples with a brief description, as long as the task and or script works and serves a purpose, I would appreciate any assistance.

Again, thanks everyone for your patience and help.

Regards

Well now, that would spoil all the fun and learning of searching. Searching for stuff is a skill on its own and once you master it, you can walk the path toward your own goals instead of others dumping crap in your mailbox. You would loose your way.

Hey good morning Richard,

I fully agree with you, I am an expert on searching and researching, this is how I found HOUSEBOT.

As a matter of fact the company I worked for before retiring, had me search for products no one else could find, didn't matter where or what, I had a good success rate.

But now, I find that I spend too much time looking for stuff, so I would rather check with someone that has done the stuff already instead of trying to reinvent the wheel all the time.

Richard, you are still too young, it seems that as I get older, I want to achieve more in less time, I wonder if this is a recognition of my own mortality, ( Man that is deep, its actually scary ).

So Folks, don't forget to send in those Tasks and Scripts, before I croak, LOL.

Have a great day Richard, a thought, maybe I should visit the Netherlands before I go, I hear it is a very beautiful place.

I figured that once you are retired, you have all the time in the world and actually don't want to move that fast anymore. Unless you are related to mister Benjamin Button;)

Richard,

You have a very good point, I will have to think about this one and get back to you.

Don't think too long. It Will consume valuable HouseBot time;)

Richard,

That's my problem, I don't think, and when I do, I get in trouble.
