    Thank you very much for the program distributed under a free open license!

    Works great for editing Google Maps. Call me crazy, but it feels a lot easier to use for my workflow than Greenshot. Better annotations - they are easy to edit and reposition. Already great, but OCR on graphic text both from the graphic and externally from the system tray would be "plus ultra". The only people who do a decent job of on screen OCR to clipboard is ABBYY, (Do you detect a challenge?) but Abbyy does not offer graphics edit
