This doesn't seem to have been raised here, though it's popped up on the Windows forum. I need ideally to sort documents in a collection by something other than name, label or status. For example, a collection which displays every document I've written on <phlogiston>* in the order in which I wrote ...

What's an offto? And where do you go to pick them? Are they like hops or what?

Strikes me as embryo genius. Potentially the photographic equivalent of the videogame or text adventure. Right now, from their gallery, it looks a bit like a do-it-yourself focus-puller; but it's a big change of gear; until now, digital photography was just imitating analogue/silver halide; if it's ...

"Chapter 1: Seems to have a lot of tabs in there (probably used in the orig draft as indents rather than using the indent slides. Tab indents format very awkwardly in ebooks."

Odd. I didn't use a single one. Ruler indents, in Scrivener, all the way...

Dear Pigfender

Bravo on the finished product.

When you come to recompile for the other formats, could you remove my # marks, which are just standard mark up for a blank line and shouldn't appear in the final version? Thanks.

Didn't recognise my picture of the detective. But tremendous fun. Much better than sitting around trying to write stagecraft. And I wrote the opening chapter so I can snigger at everyone else (No no, that's not how it goes AT ALL, dear).

A good wheeze. When can we do another one?

Twenty-six thousand words in a DAY?

Blimey. That's better than Simenon.

Thought to be short for "quacksalver", used by Sir Thomas Browne in his Pseudodoxia Epidemica (1648) to describe a hawker of patent (and mostly useless) medicines. Etymology is conflicted. The standard one is from the old German "Quacksalber", allegedly meaning "quicksilver&...

Delivered. And now I want to know what happens next.

Statistics (in case anyone cares): Started 13:08, finished 16:20, 2,566 words.

The right man in the right place at the right time. I wonder how long we'll have to wait for the next one to come along.

Can't see this anywhere on the forum. But it would be quite useful to be able to drag a document title/icon FROM the header bar TO a new position in the Binder. I've just had a case where I've been working on a file deep in the hierarchy. I found it via Search, so never saw it in situ in the Binder....

Mr B, I think he's talking about dumping his grubby old raincoat. :? Fluff Arf. But I meant, why would anyone want a -- probably shameful and humiliating -- record of one's daily output? (For example, today's, for me, so far, is -2,746ww. That's okay; means I took some crap out. But yesterday's 44 ...
