I'd add Powermarks, a bookmark manager I used and loved for more than a decade, and InfoLink, the program I used to check links on my websites.  The InfoLink developer, BiggByte, no longer even mentions the program on its website.  Someone put up a comparison of a number of link checkers and said that InfoLink has been discontinued.  He claimed that the program was now available from BiggByte for free, but the link he provided no longer works.

To my surprise, I've been able to replace both of the above programs with Linkman  :Thmbsup:, which has been reviewed and discussed on DonationCoder.  Not only is Linkman a superb bookmark manager, it's also a very fast and reasonably accurate link checker.  I find it MUCH faster than InfoLink and more accurate as well.

Thanks for the quick reply.  I'll see what I can do to duplicate the problem.  :tellme:

LaunchBar Commander / Cannot make a visible window modal
« on: January 16, 2009, 07:18 PM »
I have no idea what the error message in my subject header means, but when I tried today to set up LBC (version 1.86.01) on my laptop (IBM ThinkPad T40 running WinXP Pro SP2), I installed it, minimized it to the system tray, and then started to configure it.  At one point, I tried to right-click on it to add more nodes in Preferences, and I got an error message box that said "Cannot make a visible window modal."  Since I had no idea what the problem was, I decided to reboot and see whether that helped.  It did not.   I noticed that it had not started with Windows (I suspect I had somehow not checked that option), so I clicked on the destop LBC icon, and I again got the error message.  At that point, I decided to uninstall LBC and start again.  However, before I do, I'd like to understand what had happened so I don't encounter the same problem again.  I should note that I had no trouble installing LBC on my desktop a week or so ago.  It's working beautifully.  That's why I wanted to put it on my laptop as well.

I think it should remember its state -- so if you close while minimized it should start up minimized -- that's the idea anyway.
i could make it an explicit option though.
Yes, that's the way LBC works for me.  I was surprised and delighted when, after being minimized to the tray, it opened minimized the next time I started my computer (and from then on).  I think it would be great, however, if you could make an explicit option.  I remember looking for one and being disappointed not to find one.  I didn't realize at first that LBC was smart enough to remember what I wanted without my telling it.  :)

I am delighted to report that mouser has fixed the glitch I wrote about at the start of this thread.  He has posted the new version of LaunchBar (1.86.01) on the LaunchBar page.  Thanks again, mouser, for this wonderful program!  :greenclp:
