SharpKeys: Saturday, January 31, 2004 at 09:42 PM by Randy
Two "enhancements" for this release, but nothing too major. Consequently, this is Release Candidate 1.
For those of you that are new to my site and my software projects, I treat my projects like "real" applications. When I get a new set of features that I want to work on, I start coding them. When an application gets to be somewhat stable, I make it available to the public - mostly for feedback and testing - for a couple of quick beta cycles. From there, once the application becomes stable and "feature complete" I kick it out the door as "released" and consider it to be done. Of course, some time after that, the cycle usually begins again with a new set of features.

The point of this little blurb is to declare that SharpKeys is very close to being considered "done" as of this release.
Better Add/Edit dialog - I've switched the one-lined DropDown list box for multi-lined list boxes. While this does make for a larger dialog, I find it to be worthwhile because more items are visible and it should be easier to find the key you're looking for. I was contemplating multi-tab filtering system, but in all honesty, that sucked worse, so this is what I'm going forward with.
Context menu - This is just for the List of mappings: right click on the list and you'll see options for to match the buttons on the dialog. Just a little something to help navigation.
