StrokeIt is an advanced mouse gesture recognition engine and command processor. Basically, it's a nifty little program that lets you control programs by drawing symbols with your mouse. It can currently recognize more than 50 unique mouse gestures and can be easily trained to recognize many more. For each gesture recognized, it can execute a user-defined set of commands within the active application. It commands are defined within plugin libraries that can be easily created by third parties to do virtually anything.
- Changed Run explorer command from "explorer.exe" to "%WINDIR%\explorer.exe"

- Fixed: More bug fixes for crashers

- Fixed: Problems defining "Modifier only" hotkeys
- Fixed: Whitespace dataloss with keystroke plugin

OMG, I forgot about this little gem. I'm using chrome on win7 RC and really miss gestures, nothing fancy; back, fwd, close tab. This will make life a bit better.

very cool time saving tool , has a very small foot print. will keep my eye on this one
Reviewing 0.9.5 (Sep 26, 2007)
Stroke-it- simple smart smallest program can't live without it. it is highly configurable can be used with all programs. using it for 2yrs. I wish programs like stroke it, taskbar shuffle should come as default with Windows.
Reviewing 0.9.5 (Dec 6, 2005)
A great, cant-live-without-it program!!! People rave about gestures in browsers, but StrokeIt allows gestures in pretty much any program.
Everyone should use this. Small, lightweight and bug free as far as I can see.
Reviewing 0.9.4 Preview (Dec 4, 2004)
Great program, does its job efficiently and very small (100k download.. and ~1M memory usage)
Definitely a keeper, and just sorry about not having found out about it earlier.
Reviewing 0.9.4 Preview (Nov 20, 2004)
An AMAZING program - it adds incredible functionality to all programs with great customisability. Mouse gestures, once you invest time to set them up, are the biggest revolution IMO in the UI some time.
This thing has a working set memory use of around 200kB!!!!!!!!! Tight and efficient coding if ever you'll see it...

Imagine using a foreign pc, and pressing the right mouse-button to make a gesture. i allways miss this little program, saves me so much time. using gestures became as common as the "strg+alt+entf" command on windows :-P
> a must have!

...Sensiva...(alias Symbol Commander)...
Maybe StrokeIt is free (Sensiva v1.52 is free too...)...but i dont like it for the moment...to difficult to configure...with Sensiva i'm able to make really complicated Operations (Showing Folder ordered by Date and using Group...for example).
They have a lot to do before being able to be compared to Symbol Commander. Whats good is: the "Disabled App"
But i really would like to be able to make as far as 4 or 5 combinations of Hotkey easily.
I will follow this app...according to me : not ready.
Still Keep Sensiva v1.52.

scared me when i saw shareware.. great appage here.. :yes:
Reviewing 0.9.4 Preview (Oct 25, 2004)
It's freeware but you *are* allowed to pay for it, which I did. It simply saves me so much time and is so incredibly convenient! And you can make gestures for nearly ANYTHING you'd want. Essential utility!

5 isnt enough for this program. f'ing awesome and unbeatable. why is this listed as shareware? it's free! free i tell you! amazing!
Reviewing 0.9.2a (Mar 12, 2003)
Been using it for a long time, it boosted my productivity: a software not to miss. FREEWARE! FREEWARE! FREEWARE! FREEWARE! FREEWARE! FREEWARE! FREEWARE! FREEWARE! FREEWARE!

I can't live without StrokeIt anymore :)
thanks a ton for that absolut perfect program.
Reviewing 0.9.1 (Feb 5, 2003)
Downloads are fine. Awesome program, very useful.
Everyone should be using StrokeIt!
Reviewing 0.9 Beta 9 (Oct 19, 2002)
The program is good, but obviaously the homepage and the downloadlink are down. :(
This program is also Freeware and not Shareware
Reviewing 0.9 Beta 9 (Jun 27, 2002)
You can download MSN/Hotmail into Outlook Express (as it supports web based e-mail) but you now have to pay for it.
Reviewing 0.9 Beta 5a (Jan 3, 2002)
I've only played with it a bit, but so far I am very impressed. I'm accustomed to using a "stroke" interface on a certain high-end electronics CAD/CAM tool, and I've been hoping for functionality like this on my PC for some time...
Reviewing 0.9 Beta 4 (Dec 13, 2001)
This program reminds me of Sensiva.I recomend it because it requires very few resources.It stays in RAM with just 570 k and it has a very good and flexible macro editor
Reviewing 0.9 Beta 3 (Dec 11, 2001)
This is true bonus of a program. Looks really impressive. Maybe could do with the line sparkling when it recognises my gesture just like in black and white. Cant wait to be loaded, by a home automation system and turn the kettle on with a jesture - life just keeps getting easier, G

Deffenetly must-have for people, who are very fond of shortcuts. Its small, you can always enable/disable it and it comes very handy, if You work with programs and need to use a lot of shortcut keys or You are just too damn tired to crawl under Your File menu and start clicking stuff there. Just give it a shot and try it out Yourself.
Reviewing 0.9 Beta 2 (Dec 4, 2001)
Yes this program is great. It reminds me of my palm pilot. Its especially good for lazy people like myself! Even if you dont use mouse gestures all the time you can still have fun painting your screen with the gesture tool ;-).
