Does not fix the restart-on-wake-from-sleep issue (just happened), but it does fix graphics glitches and allegedly the screen freeze issue.

Nice -- but how about an option to hide it from the dock?

Can someone tell me why it is necessary to overwrite a file more than once?

Suppose you have a 100MB hard drive. (I know -- it's just an example.) It is filled with a 100MB file. You delete that file, then load another 100MB file onto the drive.

The first 100MB is completely gone, right? Because if it isn't, then you would be fitting more than 100MB on the drive -- and if anything significant could be recovered, then you'd be fitting a lot more than the drive's capacity.

If any remotely useful data can be recovered after one -- let alone seven -- rewrites, couldn't one find a way to fit more data on a hard drive than its capacity?

I don't see why one would need to overwrite more than just once.

Still my favorite screenwriting software, for the following silly reasons:

1. I can trust it - because it is an industry standard, I don't have to worry about formatting, fonts or anything. I just write. ("Just add words.")

2. It has a very simple interface. There's just a window with your script in page layout - or, if you want, note cards next to it.


That said, it isn't work the price if you're presently looking for software - but that is only because of Celtx.

My experience has been better than I could have expected. It's amazing how many things run - Office, IE6, Kontakt2 (although there isn't much of a way to use it without MIDI support). Nice GUI, more compatible than WINE for Mac - considering what it's trying to do, it's amazing. Of course you can't expect everything to work! It's a beta of something that states explicitly that not everything will work.

My chief complaints are launch speed and hardware support, but it would be a miracle if both of those were perfect.

I have a USB Dazzle video digitizer, and it still doesn't work. Seeing as the software comes with a DirectX installer, I suppose this is due to lack of DirectX support? Why is it that emulators / virtualizers feel that DirectX / 3D support is unimportant? There's actually little I can use Parallels for because of that one problem causing so many others.

Am I insane, or is there no Intel version? The Intel download on the site gives me a PPC binary that runs under Rosetta even after it is fully launched.
