Thanks.

Yes, that's exactly what it's designed for.

 AA> Do you use it - much?

Nope, never.

 AA> Regarding "Editable right-click menus"  ..what is that, really?

You can add menu options to your right-click menu which can save a lot

Right-Click in any window, click "Edit" and all will be revealed ;-)

wish to add that to the "[APoint] PROS" section.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Thank YOU 

I have a request .....

In the intro at the top of the page, could you change "includes  
Windows/Linux program and Quick-Start guide" to "includes Windows/ 
Linux program/source and Quick-Start guide".
