It’s a pleasure to use, and it gets updated often. Kavia I just paid for WF's 1 year plan and then I discovered your freaking software which is quite awesome local and it's very quick on my Macbook. JP Aubrey I'm impressed with the desktop version so far. The main place I was considering installing this type of tool was indeed on my laptop as I have RRMS and sometimes need to take a break from typing or don't have the energy to some days.
