Re: [Jreepad-users] Thanks

[Dan S. <dan...@gm...>]

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the message! You're right that there's not a lot of
community activity around Jreepad - it's still just a one-person
project which I develop occasionally (but I use it every single day).
Development will continue, absolutely, but I'm not currently intending
to make it an all-singing all-dancing program, so don't expect many
jazzy new feature announcements. I like the idea of it being a
slimline simple app that can fit on thumb drives etc. (It can even fit
on a floppy disk! Are you old enough to remember those?)

Someone else had a problem with Ctrl-\ and so I'll change the shortcut
in the next release, to Ctrl-H. (For the time being, there's an
alternative on Windows: Alt-E and then C.)

What would be helpful for me would be to know where you looked when
you were searching for a suitable outlining app. I do put information
on software-categorising websites such as versiontracker and
freshmeat. Did you use sites like that? Or did you just search the
web, or...?

Best
Dan
