Re: Bible Lightning - lightning fast scripture searching

Update: BL's homepage appears to be down, and the last update to the program was, by all indications, 28-04-2015.

The latest version of the program can still be found on Softpedia (GUI, Console) and FreewareFiles.

Electron-based programs tend to be non-portable as well, unless the developer specifically makes a portable version.

Re: WebTorrent Desktop

@smaragdus Like @Userfriendly , I tried a couple of torrents and they all worked. At first I thought maybe WebTorrent isn't meant for anything other than audio/video type torrents - things that can be streamed. However I experienced no problems with some ebook torrents, none of which I think are pa...

Re: Free Download Manager (FDM)

Have to agree with @smaragdus that the FDM5 interface is very bad. It hides too much functionality.

Re: X-MyPaint

The "official" builds mentioned above are split into prerelease binaries which I make, and the current official stable build done by TumagonX, the chap behind @shnbwmn's "unofficial" link above. So things are a little more blurred there than you might think. Sorry, I didn't know...

The latest official MyPaint Windows installers can no longer be extracted, and the WinPenPack version is terribly outdated. Baas already mentioned the unofficial builds , however that was years ago. I'll retest it sometime this week. Perhaps the extracted files from the unofficial builds work with t...
