gMote 1.41

Thanks for downloading!

Instructions: extract to the folder of your choice (preferably somewhere you can remember) and run gmote.exe. No installation is required; the program will extract several files it needs and you will see these appear in the same folder. If you have an older version, save the new one in the same folder and you'll keep your settings.

- The first thing you should do after you load gMote is click "Create Gesture"! Then experiment...

- By default, the program won't run next time you start Windows unless you tell it to, by clicking its icon on the task bar and selecting "Always run at startup".

- If you're using Vista (like me), note that the Aero them can slow gMote down when "drawing anywhere". Either switch to the Basic theme or tick "fast trails" on the Options dialog. Using fast trails, you'll notice that parts of the gesture might disappear if something else on the screen is redrawn (such as an animation).

- gMote will check for updates online and tell you when they're available. You can turn this option off in the "Options" dialog.

Feedback is really appreciated, especially bug reports and suggestions.

Version 1.41 Update:
- FIXED: An issue where it would crash on startup because the tray icon couldn't be created quickly enough.
- FIXED: An issue where network errors were ignored and "You have the latest version " was reported by default.
- NEW: Hints on creating gestures (some people said it wasn't clear)
