Online applications for a long time constitute a serious competition to conventional programs, and in some cases exceed them. For example, Singapore programmer Yujian Yao liked the service so Google Task, that he decided to write a special tool for easy access to the capabilities of the online task manager. As the realization of this project is overgrown with additional features and the result is a rather interesting program for quick access to the mobile site directly from the system tray.
Treb - a mix of the words tray and webWhich very accurately defines the basic function of the utility. With it you can access the contents of favorite web pages with a click of an icon in the system tray. The only condition - the site must have a mobile version, since the content is displayed in a small pop-up window.
First you need to download the utility from home page. It is distributed as a zip file and requires no installation. After unpacking, locate a file folder treb.exe and run it by double-clicking. In the system tray will be a new icon, clicking on which you can call the settings window.
By pressing the button New We open the window to add a new service, where to enter the name, address of the site or its mobile version, the display scale. Here we can set the update interval and the method of masking the client (represented as iPhone, Android, Nokia).
If you are too lazy to add services manually, it allows you to export ready-made settings of some services. To do this, you need to download this file, Unzip it, and then click Settings Import and specify the path to the desired file with the extension *. treb. Installed services consistently add their icons to the system tray. If the icon is not displayed, you can manually add it by placing the desired image format * png to the appropriate folder in the directory C: \ Users \ name \ AppData \ Local \ YYJHAO \ treb.
Scope of this utility is very wide and limited only by your imagination. Someone will be convenient to keep track of updates Facebook and Twitter, Google will have another immediate challenge for the soul Task and Calendar, as well, the third like to have on hand the omniscient translator and interpreter of the words of Yandex Dictionaries. Despite some existing shortcomings and mistakes, Treb is a very interesting program, certainly deserves a positive assessment. It remains only to add that the program is distributed free of charge and works under Windows.
