Remember? Status

Just a quick update on the state of the next version of “Remember?”. I’ve got several significant new features in the works:

  • Extending the cut-off year for events from 2018 to 2134
  • Safer occasion file updates
  • Automatic occasion file backups

The coding for these changes is essential completed but will require extensive testing before I’ll let it at anyone else’s data. Occasion files that contain events beyond 2018 won’t be compatible with previous versions of Remember? and can’t be opened by them.

These are fairly extensive changes so I’m not sure when this version will be ready for public consumption. I’ll post a pre-release test version for the more adventurous after more testing.

    Still is not opening from ‘Hide’ when there is a reminder on that day! Please hurry with the new version. I nearly missed paying my Master card 😉

    Hi, Dave.

    I’ve been trying to make the preference for “24 hours” stick, to no avail. It always visually resets to “12 Hour, 12:00,” although the setting does show “24 hours” from one activation of Remember to the next. This also happens if I set it to “12 Hour, 12:00.”

    Curiously, the time and date for the .pref file indicate it is being modified when I change the Preferences, but this is not the case of the .plist file. Anyway, maybe this is OK.

    Also, the .rtfd help file recommends checking the “What happens at startup” options, but there is no such option in the Preferences.

    Finally, I tried sending this to “info@warker.com” (clicked on the link at the top of the .rtfd file), but it bounced with “no such user.”

    Regards,

    Daniel
