Hi.

New version out and no dev history? Pity.

A feature I would really appreciate being developed is the ability to mask the contents of templates (at least for the simple text ones). Allchars has this feature. The text contents (or strings) thus shown would be protected with a password and only be unmasked ("decrypted") by once the user provided the password. Usually, of course, these special text strings would be program license keys, passwords, confidential personal data etc. Please, download and take a look at Allchars for better understanding what I mean, here: http://allchars.zwolnet.com/download/program.html

Thanks in advance for your time.

Regards.

If something changes (not a bug), it is stored in a file changes.txt

Yes. I want to do it. I myself want this feature.

Have a nice day

Hi, Admin:

Thanks for your reply.

Wow, can't wait! But please note that the password-protected data would only be protected against unauthorized editing (unless optionally and previously set up by the user himself otherwise) and thus not prevented from being used for, say, licensing a given program, being entered into a certain data (online form) field etc., just like Allchars do, just after being "decrypted" on-the-fly (there should optionally be no need to provide a password for accessing the data, which, naturally could be invoked through an abbreviation [alias]). Once this new version of your program comes out, I guess it will be the only one of its kind to feature this (Allchars has no password protection option for "encrypted" data).

Have you ever heard about SuRun? If not, take a look at and download it here: http://kay-bruns.de/wp/ (interface in English also)

My kind regards.

Hi,

I am contacting from a Cybercafe.

OK, I'll try it and update the language file. Only be patient about getting the update, since I have no home (I work home) internet connection at present. Sorry.

Regards.

Milton
