DonationCoder NANY 2016 Software released
NANY is an annual event over at the DonationCoder community website where members of the community pledge to develop applications for the new year.
Considering that you have access to hundreds of programs created for NANY events, you can almost be certain that you find something of interest created during the event.
This year was a low-key event according to DonationCoder as it was not promoted outside of the forum.
Actually, if I would not visit the forum regularly to find out what is new and hot, I would not really heard about it either.
NANY 2016 apps
The following applications were released by DonationCoder users for the event. If not mentioned otherwise, the apps are compatible with the Windows operating system.
- Automatic Screenshotter - This application creates screenshots of the desktop or active windows in select intervals, and stores the last n-copies on the local system.
- Iconus - A simple icon viewer.
- Lucid Dream Inducer - A tiny program that is designed to play a "customizeable chime and voice file" in the middle of the night for lucid dreaming.

I knew this was here now, because one of my rss feeds for portable software had skwire’s sTray. So I was going to check it out later. Jody does some really cool stuff, they all do. Thanks for the reminder :)
Thanks for posting, Martin!
You guys deserve the publicity!
thanks i really like this software!
Wasn’t really sure if there was going to be DonationCoder NANY, I like sTray the developer of Splat (Simple Program Launching and Termination). He has a lot of useful utility’s and their all free.
