[ANN] tRev Magic Menus: contextual, mouse-free menus

[Peter Alcibiades]

Here is the recipe.

Open a stack with plenty of buttons and scripts.

Now open any script in the editor.

Use the property inspector to get the properties of a given field

Select and copy the name of the field

Paste it into the script.  I think I used middle click, but think I have
also used control-v in the past.

It should freeze, flickering rapidly.  Then when you close the window of the
editor, the whole IDE crashes. 

I just did it, 30 seconds ago on this machine, and as expected, it happened. 
I did it a couple times this afternoon on a different computer when I just
forgot that it was going to happen - I was working on redoing the
application so as to eliminate the need to use print card, and needed to
take the name of the fields into the script, so as to put the contents of
them into a variable and then put this variable into a text file.  Which,
after manually reformatting it in rtf, I will then be able to open in a word
processor and print in acceptable format.

What a totally insane thing to be forced to be doing in the first place, but
that is by the way.

I have also had on earlier versions extreme slowdowns of the editor, where
the cursor took a half second or so to move from one position in the line to
another.  Or typed characters showed up only after about a half second
delay.

This is  a complete farce.  I'm an amateur, I don't charge, and I'd never
let stuff at this crap level of quality out the door.  Do they do any
testing at all?

Peter
