I use The Bat! Pro on my main laptop, but now have a budget ultraportable (Xidu Tour Pro) as a back-up. It only has a 128Gb SSD (though it has a slot for a second one, which I haven't looked into). I'm looking for a compact, lightweight email client for it. A quick search turns up TheBat! as "lightweight", but recent versions have jumped from about a 40Mb download to 120Mb. I could use The Bat! Voyager on a USB stick as the Pro license covers this, but I'm wondering if there are other recommendations. I briefly tried i.Scribe / InScribe and didn't get on very well with it, but might take another look. Otherwise, the commonest suggestions seem to all be ports from Unix/Linux:Pegasus Mail only 12mb
- Alpine
- Sylpheed
- Claws Mail (a fork of Sylpheed)
Is there anything else I should consider, please?-rjbull (January 15, 2022, 03:19 PM)

Hi there.Thanks I will give it a try later on . I’m interested as to what’s causing the stopwatch to appear because it doesn’t appear in / from any other program when I use the save or save as options.
You may try to identify that process when it's running using, from the command line:
tasklist /fi "windowtitle eq Stopwatch"
It should give you the actual process name, which you'd then be able to find in the task manager, from where you should have the opportunity to open the file's location (using the right click menu on the process).
Whether or not it matches the "notepad.exe" or "charmap.exe" name, we'll still have some sort of clue. ( → If it doesn't, then maybe there is a registry entry somewhere that points to it, similar to how typing "pbrush" executes MSPaint on Windows 7, even though the actual executable's name is mspaint.exe and there is no such file as pbrush.exe on a default Windows 7 install… it's just there as some kind of compatibility setting.)-ConstanceJill (February 06, 2019, 03:50 PM)
My program does not invoke any stopwatch application. Textworx has a command to invoke charmap and notepad, but not stopwatch.Well some how it is doing it when I use the save options in TextWorx .-BGM (February 06, 2019, 01:33 PM)
Sorry what I really meant that I did a search on my computer to see if the was a stopwatch exe that your program TextWorx may be invoking the stopwatch as shown on the image I posted.Hi BGM
Using 1.2 version
Attached is screenshot of computer specs. and stopwatch that appears. Did a search for a stopwatch exe on the computer nothing came up
Doesn't seem to hang.-nogojoe (January 23, 2019, 03:36 PM)
I'm sorry, nogojoe, but I can't figure out what you are trying to explain. You say you did a "search for stopwatch exe" on the computer... this thread is for TextWorx, not for Shorthand. Shorthand is the program for searching files (using the Everything program underneath) maybe you've posted in the wrong thread. TextWorx does not have any file-searching function.-BGM (February 05, 2019, 03:53 PM)
Curious if anyone else gets the following error when the 'background' reg is used, and attempting to create date-time folder:getting the same message Win XP 3
"explorer.exe
This file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action.
(...etc)."
I've been trying to research it, but seem to arrive at dead ends.-nkormanik (October 24, 2018, 01:50 AM)

Anand,Nice work there Mike have it working well on the computer . any chance of doing something like this for an Ipad
As a challenge to myself and in order to add the ability to move and size Note windows in addition to coloring and text size, I decided to write my own program. Similar to yours, only one note is displayed at a time related to the active window. I call it Relevant Notes and it stores all data into one INI file in the same directory. I know you are busy with real work so this was an opportunity for me to be creative.
The blog page for the program is Relevant Notes

@orbis: Uploaded a new version with corrected timing.
@nogojoe: I'm sorry, but I can't replicate your problem.-skrommel (August 16, 2017, 12:55 PM)

@orbis: I use a timer set to 60 seconds, so it can be off by almost a minute. It's just to be as easy on the CPU as possible, but I can easily change it.
@nogojoe: So the test works, but when you click Run, there's no sound?-skrommel (August 13, 2017, 12:09 PM)
