I also liked that it had a keyboard page – so small bonus, I guess? There’s a few other features that make it useful, but I don’t know if it’s worth the price tag personally. I did like the visual scene page though, and I think that might be very helpful for some people. I also didn’t like how it would require extensive set up to be even remotely robust, and how the message window had to be manually added to every page.Ĭonsidering all of the other programs I tried that were way more extensive than this (some even cheaper!), I didn’t like it.
