This is sad news . . . I'd grown quite fond of the app. My other favorite, File-Ex, hasn't been updated in a long time either. Wonder if they're calling it quits for vista as well. I hate when software I love dies.-allen (September 21, 2006, 08:53 PM)
Thank you for letting me know. Rather than joining the discussion
myself, you're welcome to quote any or all of this for me:
As of yet I have not had a chance to look at Vista to see how easy it
would be to support it. It may not be practical to port File-Ex to
Vista either -- the comments about FileBox eXtender aren't very
encouraging. I do plan to investigate the situation in a couple
months, hoping that I can find a way to do it (perhaps File-Ex's
architecture is different enough from FileBox eXtender that it's not a
problem for File-Ex), but at this time I cannot promise that a Vista
version will be forthcoming.
By the way, if anyone has tried to run File-Ex under Vista, I would be
interested to know the results. As yet I don't have hardware capable
of running Vista myself.

just a clarification in case its not clear, the quickpaste feature allen describes is from Clipboard Help+Spell. You can create as many custom formatting profiles as you want and they appear in the quickpaste menu and in the formatting panel in the main window.-mouser (September 14, 2006, 06:07 AM)
F-Prot is a program I tried once because it sounded like F-Secure. It turned out to be decent.-superboyac (September 13, 2006, 10:59 AM)
It's a feature that allows you to preconfigure quickpaste items which, in essence, allows you to apply a text replacement/cleanup filter/query on text on the fly. You can preconfigure and save them, then use them as simply as hitting ctrl alt q and selecting the one you want from a drop down.-allen (September 13, 2006, 06:01 AM)
Quick Paste Menu, Quick Paste Menu, Quick Paste Menu . . . just that feature would make a killer standalone app. Having a clipboard manager wrapped around it helps.-allen (September 11, 2006, 05:34 PM)

i just thought, how about if u make a program that compiles documents then automatically print it in sequenced pages similar to a book?-n0name_04 (September 10, 2006, 12:54 AM)
TxtPrint is a small application designed mainly for one purpose: Printing out text files.
By numerous settings, you will have precise control over the output. TxtPrint can be used to print all kinds of text files, but I think programmers printing out source code do appreciate the features most.
The main advantage with TxtPrint compared to standard text editors is the ability to divide the page in several columns and rows. This is very useful for saving paper and getting more text on a single paper.
From there, the ability to read and write xml files is inherent, so why not give it the ability to read/write a popular web technology?-allen (September 11, 2006, 05:20 AM)

I wonder if there are "layout translations" as well as there are "language translations". I am thinking of localized keyboard shortcuts; so basically the finger movements are the same, so the keys are different. This would be very convenient for us Germans too... I shall try to find out.-housetier (September 10, 2006, 10:00 AM)

PLATFORMS:
Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP
DESCRIPTION:
Sometimes the keys on your keyboard just aren't in the right place. Many of us who are familiar with the original 84-key IBM PC keyboard layout have it ingrained in our muscle memory that the Ctrl key is right next to the A key. This drives us nuts on most newer 102-key keyboard, on which the positions of the Caps Lock and Ctrl keys are reversed. We find ourselves toggling CapsLock on and off instead of typing a Ctrl+Key combination. Perhaps you'd like to have your keyboard laid out more like a typewriter, with CapsLock at the bottom, Shift above, and Ctrl above that. You might even want to disable that pesky left Windows key, because you keep hitting it by mistake when you want the left Alt key.
TradeKeys 2 makes all that possible; you can remap your keyboard almost any way you want. Under Windows 95, 98, and Me, you can change, swap, or disable any of the standard keys (those that existed on the original 84-key keyboard layout). Under Windows 2000 and XP, you can also remap extended keys such as the Right Ctrl and Right Alt keys, the Windows Logo key, and the navigation cluster. You can save your mappings to a file for later reloading. This lets different users on a system switch quickly between different mappings. TradeKeys 2 is an update of our earlier keyboard mapping utility, ZDKeyMap.

"Put another password in,
Bomb it out and try again,
Try to get past logging in,
we're Hacking, Hacking, Hacking.
Try his first wife's maiden name,
This is more than just a game,
It's real fun, but just the same,
It's Hacking, Hacking, Hacking."

I'd love something that would (easily) allow me to make a few desktops with different icons, say graphics icons, tools, maybe a desktop for my partner who uses my computer occasionally.
