Here's part 2 in my screencast of ritePen + nirCmd. This part shows off some of my everyday use of the app mashup, specifically how it improves my ink blogging process. Yes, that means this is a mini demonstration of Build 52 (http://www.markandtanya.us/scribbles/Build52.html). It's a surprise two-in-one demo. Enjoy! [+/-] Hide/Show Text [+/-] Hide/Show Text
i applaud you for making this screencast. I was very interested in seeing this put to the test. I can see how this system would be essential for any tablet user, me being one of them. However, mine is actually a convertible and though i do ink a lot, the fact that the keyboard is undeniably faster for shortcuts in most cases. It is too bad that keyboard shortcuts can be used for things like photoshop in tablet mode. I cant be in tablet mode while having the benefits of keyboard shortcuts.
Either way, I agree with you that these two programs are killer for anyone with a tablet-only setup, and I can see how it would be for convertibles as well.
Actually, my screencast does show how well this works on a convertible. I use a Toshiba R25, primarily in slate mode. I do swivel to use the keyboard when convenient, but ritePen + nirCmd makes it easier to stay in slate. Also, I'm expanding beyond simple shortcuts to multi-step shortcuts, like rename + copy to copy a file name, doing things in one scribble that would take multiple taps on a keyboard. Very excited about that.
