Chamki requires Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or later for Windows Vista, XP, 2000.
If you are not sure that your PC is ready for this, please check Windows Folder \ Microsoft.NET \ Framework \ v2.0.xxxxx or v3.0 folder is exist. .NET Framework setup file is available at the Microsoft .NET Homepage and the setup requires the Windows Installer.
Microsoft supports .NET Framework even for Windows 98 but the performance is the problem. To run .NET application in reasonable performance, we think that you need a PC that purchased after the year 2005 in most cases.
When you install Chamki, the main program file will be copied to the folder you selected, and the following data files will be copied to User's folder \ Local Application Data \ UInterface \ Chamki folder.
Chamki_Options.xml : Stores PAD List section data and progress status
Chanki_Sites.xml : Stores Site List section dataThe files are managed by Chamki internally and not supposed to be edited directly. However, if you need to edit them directly, you must close the Chamki first. The files are XML format, UTF-8.
Note even if you uninstall Chamki, the above data files will not be deleted for later use (e.g. updating or moving Chamki program file only).
Chamki has three sections - PAD List, Site List, Browser - for your submission process.
- PAD List
You can add your PAD addresses to be submitted. You can also add other strings that required by a submission page - e.g. email address, company name, etc. - as you want.
Selecting (clicking) an item in this section causes copying the item to the clipboard and input focus will be moved to the browser automatically. This enables you to browse the page and paste the item quickly.
- Site List
This section holds a list of submission page addresses. Chamki basically offers about 50 site addresses - Google PageRank 5+ - and you can add your site or completely replace the list with yours.
Double-clicking causes connection to the selected address. The checkbox will be checked automatically to mark submission progress. When Chamki connected to the site, input focus will be moved to the browser automatically for your quick browsing.
- Browser
Browser section is a place to submit PADs. Chamki uses the Internet Explorer installed on your system.
PAD List Section is for your PAD addresses and other strings that are required by submission pages.
- Click: The selected item will be copied to the clipboard, input focus will be moved to the browser.
- Double-click: The selected item (generally PAD address) will be opened in the browser. This is a way to confirm whether you entered PAD address correctly or not.
- Right-click: Context menu activation.
This enables you to add or insert an item to the PAD List. You can enter any one-line strings that you want as well as PAD addresses. Chamki performs case-insensitive exact string search by default to check duplicate item.
3-2. Edit, Delete:
This enables you to edit or delete current items. Edit also performs duplication check.
Site List Section is for the submission page addresses of download sites.
- Double-click: This is the first step of the submission process and the selected address will be opened in the browser. If connected, input focus will be moved to the browser automatically. The checkbox is checked if the item is in unchecked status and vice versa.
- Click on Checkboxes: This enables you to mark your submission progress.
- Right-click: Context menu activation.
Indicator displays current location(8) / total number of site(60), number of selected/checked items.
This enables you to add or insert an address to the Site List. Chamki performs hostname only search by default to check duplicate site address in this section.
4-3. Edit, Delete:
This enables you to edit or delete current address. Edit also performs duplication check.
This enables you to find a specific site addresses with hostname only search by default.
- Import
Import is a way to add your site list to Chamki's site list or completely replace the list with yours. Chamki accepts text file format that contains site addresses line by line:
Chamki performs hostname only duplication check by default. If there some duplicate addresses exist, Chamki will exclude the addresses and display the list in the browser.
- Export
Export is a way to make a backup copy of the current site list. The file will be saved in Text file format (can be imported directly). Note that the checkbox status will not be included.
Browser section is a place to navigate sites, submit PADs. Chamki uses the Internet Explorer installed on your system.
This is for multiple PAD submission and enables you to connect again to the previously visited submission page. Note this is not the 'Refresh' button.
6-1. Separate Site List Management
If you have well-classified site list already, we suggest you create separate site list files in Text format and use them by Chamki.
Sites requires no account.txt
Sites requires account.txt
Sites support auto-poll.txt
Optional sites.txt
..
..
- Import first site list file to the Chamki, replace current list with it.
- Submit PAD.
- Repeat with the next site list file.
6-2. Using Chamki by Multiple User Accounts in a PC
Chamki can be used by multiple user accounts in a PC. Chamki stores data files in each user account's application data folder, so this enables multiple user accounts run Chamki individually.
- Administrator installs Chamki, export basic site list to a public folder.
- User runs Chamki, imports site list from a public folder, performs a submission work.
- User exports the site list to a public folder if the list need to be updated.
