What a sweet little app- and free! Yes, I found the interface a little unusual: I couldn't figure out how to get a new window then saw you just drag a new folder over. And I wanted to remove the word 'alias' from the end of a huge number of aliases, and it worked very well when I told it that 'alias' is an extension.
But so what? saved me a bunch of work and obviously a labor of love. I appreciate the work. And the price :-)
I'd like to give it a 5, but I know the developer agrees there's more work, and that is the only reason I gave it less than 5.
I'm surprised how much I like this little critter. The only thing I wish it would have? A single click to toggle the on/off condition rather than selecting a menu in the manner of Show desktop, another incredibly handy little app. I'll donate anyway, though.
Thanks for a nice app- looking forward to the updates. [oh- and you morons who demand 'please fix'- this is a free application, dude].
The only real complaint I have: when you go to add an app to the list, the program looks at all the applications it can find- and if you have several hard drives this means it will show four copies of VLC1 [or whatever]. Would rather default to 'Browse', which would also be a lot faster, but just a suggestion.
I DO use this thing. While in India recently, I had a fairly slow connection, so I would leave iTunes downloading 'Lost' all night. But when I came in the morning, the connection had been droppped. This thing solved the issue.
Yes, I know how to use the Energy Saver pane, but for whatever reason, the Powerbook slept anyway, I guess, but Doze kept it tickled.
Does anybody know how to contact the developer? I bought the software, used it once and it worked but need to run it again, and I get an applescript error. There is no way to contact the developer.
I was contacted by Anders, the developer, and we are working this issue. I'll post the final results but I expect it will be resolved quickly.
I should point out that the issue is variable- sometimes it is there and sometimes it is not, so there will be some time in pinning down what is happening exactly.
Oh I have such warm and fuzzy feelings towards this programmer-- I can't trust myself in the same room with him...
Everything works except the pen won't make the mouse move- which I believe will be essential. I mean the UD1212 sees the driver, and vice-versa, but I cannot get the pen to move the cursor.
nonetheless the fact that someone is working on this is so great...

Did I mention it's free?

Thanks for writing this useful utility.

But it crashes as soon as it draws the initial windows, and two emails to the developer have gone unanswered.
Too bad.
