There is a typo in the link, which is pointing to a non-existent strokesplus_2.7.8.1_x86.zippip, rather than to strokesplus_2.7.8.1_x86.zip

Combine this with PopSel and you got a pretty decent file launcher!
Great!

Wrong version number... it's V0.97, not 9.7. Fixed, but everything else is the same.

ComputerWorldKraft: StrokeIt is free for personal and non-profit use. The 10 day trial only applies to business usage, which is a common clause for freeware applications. Take the time to actually read the information provided by the author in the future.
