It gets better. Nice to see the little things all sorted. Much cleaner!

I have been testing your application out for cf/js/sql/shell scripting/jquery/regex and a whole host of things like mysql monitor commands and shell commands...commands for bsd/linux/solaris etc...only thing I have not put in it is something for windows. ;) I am just saying the idea works for anyone thinking of giving it a go. I work solo so I have no long winded in house way to keep snippets. BTW I have put in thousands of snippets to this little app and it handles them with ease.

Importing/exporting is okay in your app and it works well but not enough options. I think the import/export needs to be super strong to pull people in. Like syncing it is essential. People have got to be able to quickly get in years of built up snippets and get them out again to share with people.

I think there is a couple bugs in the beta if I get time I will document them but it is beta of course and I think they are minor.

Last suggestion any chance of getting a wrap column marker line at 78 or set it yourself characters like text mate has. Very handy that as a guide.

THIS APP IS GREAT BUY IT NOW EARLY AND GIVE THESE GUYS THE INVESTMENT THEY NEED TO KEEP MAKING THIS BETTER!

    Hi Michael,

    Thanks for the feedback. Syncing and sharing are two of the key things we're looking at for future versions. We get lots of requests about these so they are top priorities.

    As for your beta bugs, if you could post them here if you have a free moment, I'll try and get them fixed for the next beta.

    Thanks

    Martin

    I've installed 1.4b1 and things seem to have gone a bit wonky.
    - when I create a new snippet and save it it seems to get populated with the content of the next snippet in the library list, the original content disappears. In short I'm not able to create new snippets.
    - when I have a folder selected in the side bar and click the button to create a new snippet it does not get created in the selected folder, I then have to go to the Library and find the "Untitled Snippet" in order to enter the details... which then does not get saved as described above.
