Well, I can just say this came out of the dance of my fingers

Ok, I'll say a little more...

It's a class I built so that you easily create, read and delete registry keys.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to use:
        First you need to globally declare: 'var Regs = new Regs(SaveLocation)' -> where SaveLocation is a boolean, if it's 0,
            it will save to MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.UserId, if it's 1 it will save to MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.MyEmail.
       
Then you can use Regs.methods():

            Regs.Del(key)                                 - deletes the 'key' registry;

            Regs.Read(key)                                - reads the 'key' registry;

            Regs.WriteStr(key, value, overwrite)        - writes a string with 'key' name, 'value' value, overwrite is a bool, if omitted, overwrites;

            Regs.WriteBool(key, value, overwrite)        - writes a bool with 'key' name, 'value' - 0/1, overwrite is a bool, if omitted, overwrites;

The file is on the attachment

Your script looks ok, but it uses the wshell method that can be restrictive sometimes.

Matty made a script that uses the Registry API´s of windows directly

Attached is Matty´s Registry script that is included in Screenshot Sender 4

I´m not sure if there´s a newer version, you should contact Matty about that.

there's some problem with your attachment, but I have Matty's script, I'll give it a look

There´s nothing wrong with my attachment?

btw, what do u mean by restrictive?

IIRC there was a limit of some kind, can't remember exactly.

And Matty's script allows Enumeration of keys.

That's probably because your browser can't figure out that the file encoding is UCS2-LE (UTF16-LE)

EDIT: Searching the forums I found at least one thing:

RegWrite will write at most one DWORD to a REG_BINARY value. Larger values are not supported with this method.

EDIT2: Found some more:

RegWrite, RegRead and RegDelete are the only ones that JScript knows and those methods are very, and I mean very, limited.

eg:

    * You can not check if a registry key exists or not with RegRead; it will produce an error. => can be worked around using error checking.
    * You can not write bigger values than a DWORD to a binary registry value (this means no binary data strings for example)
    * You can not write a REG_MULTI_SZ value with RegWrite
    * You can not enumerate registry keys
    * and the list goes on...

Using Firefox...


I'm looking at the file now, still going to take some time to undersand it all, it starts going a little out of my knowledge

Because you saved the file as Unicode that is why the board isn't showing it properly. It assumes that the charset for a text file is ANSI not UNICODE.

However not to rain on anyones parade but I did make an updated version of the Registry editor. The previous one was a joke this one uses DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself - Eljay )

Attached is the newer version.

The functions included are:

• Registry_CreateKey
  
• Registry_DeleteKey
  
• Registry_DeleteKeyValue
  
• Registry_KeyExist
  
• Registry_KeyValueExist
  
• Registry_EnumSubkeys
  
• Registry_EnumKeys
  
• Registry_GetKeyValue
  
• Registry_SetKeyValue
  
• Registry_CloseKey

The more the better

I forgot to mention over the weekend or sometime next week I will be extending the functionality and including RegDeleteTree and RegCopyTree, now because these are native to Windows Vista I will have to code the Windows XP side myself but that wont be a problem. What is the use you ask? None really Just it would be nice to have a full Registry Class (although mine isn't a class it is still good haha.)
