I think you did great.

Having said that, the hard part is getting people to find it.
I know there are home listing sites (zillow?) though i'm not familiar with them.
Best thing you could do is post your property on those.

Yeah, looks like i need to make a special layout for portrait phones.
Another alternative you could use is to go into options and change what info is displayed in that middle column and make it more compact.

Is there an undo option in case you hit the NOW button by accident


Each item keeps a log of all times you hit the NOW button.
So just hit EDIT and either clear all history or clear the last date (or add a custom one for that matter).

I'll try to fix the other items -- it shouldnt break up into lots of lines, but its hard to predict on all machines.  Maybe i need to do as you say and detect small screens and split into multiple lines manually in such cases.
Do you know your portrait resolution?

I've had an old friend visiting for the last 12 days and we saw several movies:

  • Mad Max Fury Road - Not bad, but basically one long car chase.
  • Tomorrowland - I hated it; friend liked it.
  • Poltergeist (2015) - Should have walked out half way; terrible.
  • Wild Tales (2014) - Spanish subtitled.  LOVED LOVED LOVED IT. Highly recommended.

Hi hoffmann.

I've just reproduced the problem -- looks like you've found a bug with the Ctrl+C copy procedure not copying the bottom-right row and column.

Stay tuned I'll try to have a beta update tonight or tomorrow that fixes it.

Thanks for reporting the bug!

Hi Furtive!

I'm surprised more people don't ask for this.
What you did should have worked -- you probably have to restart the program before it will take effect.

However, there is an easier way.  Go to the "More Interface Options" tab -- near the bottom is where you can customize the sound file used.

ProcessTamer / Re: CPU Smoothing? (Solved)
« Last post by mouser on May 18, 2015, 08:08 AM »
Process Tamer web page is here: https://www.donation...proctamer/index.html

The program isn't a magic cure-all, and won't make your old pc suddenly into some super fast modern gaming workstation.

It's a small utility that can be useful in some situations, where you have a process that for some reason is dominating your cpu:

There are times when a process will hog your cpu, such as when converting audio/video files, or working with compressed archives. Because these processes completely consume the cpu, your system becomes sluggish to respond and using the computer for other tasks becomes impossible while these processes are running.  Process Tamer solves this problem by identifying such these degenerate conditions and temporarily reducing the priority of the offending processes in order to allow your system to respond to other requests.

The other way that Process Tamer can be useful is in IDENTIFYING the processes that may hog your cpu and make it unresponsive -- if such behaviors are happening unexpectedly.

On a modern multicore cpu, a program like Process Tamer is less useful than on an older cpu, because the presence of multiple cores means that even if one process is completely hogging a core, your operating system may remain fully responsive by using the other cores.

ProcessTamer / Re: CPU Smoothing?
« Last post by mouser on May 17, 2015, 12:24 PM »
Welcome desiree!

Let me try to explain the concept of the cpu usage measurement smoothing.

First of all, understand that the setting does not change your cpu -- it refers to how the program MEASURES how busy your cpu is when it decides whether it should tame a program.

If the setting is at the far extreme towards "Might Jump the Gun" it means that the program is always looking at the current, instantaneous cpu use of the program -- so as soon as the program uses a lot of cpu for even a fraction of a section, Process Tamer will view the program as something to be tames.

As the slider moves more towards the "Might React Too Slowly" end, Process Tamer will AVERAGE the cpu use of an application over a longer and longer period, and only pay attention to the recent average.  So if you set it at the far end of that scale, a program could hog the cpu for 10 minutes before Process Tamer decides the application needs to be tamed.

So the default setting is reasonable, and you could move it a bit towards "might react too slowly" if you have applications that are being tamed when they really are just using high cpu for a short period that you don't care about.  Or move it towards "might jump the gun" if you find that process tamer is waiting longer than it should before kicking in and taming an app.

Bottom line: It's not a setting you are likely to benefit from much by changing it away from default.

Well, setting that should NOT have caused that problem!
You should be able to set firefox there.
So something must have been confusing farr and making it think that the password generator thing was a url somehow?

how odd!!

can you check your settings on the "External Tools and Plugins" tab and see if you have anything custom set.
