how to monitor some apps

Post by eadmaster »

i'd like to get events from these programs, if you have some suggestions please post it here:
- WinRAR, 7-zip (compression/extraction finished)
- TotalCommander (file copy/move finished)
- ImgBurn (burn process complete)
- filezilla (queue processed)
- jdownloader (a download is completed)

EDIT: i've found the last 4 apps can produce a log during execution.
Monitoring these logs with the File Operations plugin can produce the desired events but a bit of filtering is required... (i have written a python script for this)
For Winrar and 7-zip currently i'm simply monitoring for "Process.Destroyed.WinRAR" and "Process.Destroyed.7zG" (it works as expected only if they are started from explorer right-click menu).
If you have better solutions please let me know...
