StrokesPlus v2.7.1 Updated

Checker on 19 Mar 2013

StrokesPlus is a a mouse gesture recognition program that allows you to automate repetitive tasks by simply drawing a symbol with your mouse or performing mouse and/or keyboard modifiers to launch predefined action(s). Includes a powerful but lightweight embeddable scripting language (Lua), endless gesture and modifier combinations, granular control over program settings, and actions and the possibility to create global hotkeys for actions without using the mouse.

Non-Admin users: the application will not be able to control other programs running with admin privileges (e.g. maintenance, antivirus, etc.)

Category:
System Requirements: WinXP / Vista / Win7 / Win8
Writes settings to: Application folder
Dependencies: Administrator rights are necessary for full functionality.
Stealth: ? Yes
License: Freeware
How to extract:
  1. Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice.
  2. Select subfolder (depending on your OS).
  3. Launch StrokesPlus.exe.
What's new?
  • Updated mouse hook to have more checks for Training Mode, to prevent unexpected errors/crash.
  • Added acDisableCapture() and acEnableCapture(), these are different than acDisable or acDisableNext as they control a global flag which tells S+ to forward/ignore the mouse events until acEnableCapture is called, or the Lua states are reinitialized. There aren't many use cases for this pair of actions, but there's at least one person who could use them.

I'd like to note that for Windows Vista+, if you extract the signed version of S+ to a folder under Program Files and manually install the StrokesPlus.cer certificate into Trusted Root Certification Authorities, S+ can be run without administrative privileges and still interact with programs which are running with administrative privileges as well as interact with Windows 8 screens (Start screen, task switcher, etc.).

Yes, I also understand that at that point (installing a certificate), you're no longer really using S+ in a truly portable fashion; but wanted to mention it anyway =)
