ANN: Snapper Screen Recorder for Mac OS X

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Andre,

It should be possible to get the global mouseLoc in Rev. At least, I  
am going to try this. I don't really feel like taking another  
snapshot of the images and an AppleScript OSAX is no option for this  
application, but I am sure I can work out something. The idea of a  
cursor trail is very nice. I will definitely implement that when I  
find the time for it.

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille
