Go up one level in this thread


Quick feedback:

1. It asked for a debugging DLL: msvcrtd.dll.  I only made it work by making a
copy of msvcrt.dll and renaming it to what was asked for.

2. Need a bit of instructions on use.  What is meant by the folder called
"Unsorted"?  I don't know how to sort it.  And what's the folder called "Thrash"
for?

3. User must double-click where the Windows standard (and convenience) calls for
single-clicking.  E.g., to expand an outline on the right side, or to show the
message selected on the left side.  Single-click please!

4. Choosing "Rebuild Search Tree" (what does that do??) on just a single day's
worth of messages made it lock up my PC for about 90 seconds.

Otherwise, looks nice overall!
