HAMDI  What is a single seat, for God's sake? Even bikes have two. Besides, the common practice in the Mac community is letting two licenses (even three) in one purchase as most of us have a desktop and a macbook. This issue remains ambigious on their website. It has been raised by a user in their forums, but is left unanswered to this day. Besides, when you try to contact them, the developers do not encourage you to do so -you are just said: 'due to high volume of mails we receive every day we are not able to respond personally, but be sure we read them,' blah blah. Well, a Microsoftish attitude, it seems. Not inviting, to say the least.

The software is great, though. No doubt of that. But I will not pay for it until they promise support for support, and show us a nicer face. Will stick to good old and now much crippled QS.

myWords
Feb 2 2009

HAMDI  Well, change is good. I am using Scrivener and am quite pleased with it. Actually I finished a book on it. But this newcomer to the writers' playground well deserves an extensive test. For me, the result is quite satisfying. First of all, myWords is prettier than Scrivener (though less so than Ulysses). Secondly, it has password/encryption feature -a feature for which the developer of Scrivener refers us to Apple's disk utility which I find hard to use. Well, although I am backing up my creative work in many ways, I know -God forbid- that my computer may be stolen. I do not want to see a burglar's name on my work-in-progress. It has many essential Scrivener features like snapshots, fullscreen, etc. Besides, it has a killer attraction: letterbox mode -I loved it. The only thing I am not sure about is whether it will be able to handle large files. We will see that some months later. Till then, gentlemen, this seemingly small application has won my respect as it is. I hope the developer continues to build on it.

QRecall
Dec 5 2008
*****

HAMDI  Top-Class Software,

I've been using QRecall for two months and am extremely glad with it. It does everything I asked and scheduled it to do in a wonderfully efficient way -besides, a rarity among backup/sync applications, in a highly stylised way. I am backing up and archiving my writing work on an hourly basis and returning back to see what I've done all along. (Though I haven't tried large-scale things like system backup etc -SuperDuper seems to be reigning there). Once I had to contact the developer for a small clarification and received a quick, detailed and kind response with encouragement for more. All these things seldom come together nowadays. Well, one of the finest of all Mac applications, I believe -in league with such greats as Quicksilver, Pathfinder, Default Folder X, Ulysses and such. Highly recommended.
