These can be attached to certain events such as when a specific application is in focus or when the mouse is in a certain position (over the taskbar, on the side of the screen, etc.)

The program also allows you to restrict the wheel action to a set of rules for determining when it can changesettings. You can for example use your right mouse wheel, alt/ctrl key, etc. Volume settings for microphone, speakers, and default recording can be attached to any different combination of these.

So lucky to have this. My Lenovo machine has poor volume control buttons that frequently ignore input depending on what application is in focus. Volumouse meanwhile doesn't care: I have the left button + scroll wheel mapped to slowing increasing/decreasing the sound and the right button + scroll wheel mapped to mute and un-mute. Just excellent.

Especially like that it only takes up a little over a meg of RAM.

Volumouse is my default program for about two yaers already.
Thanks to the author.

Despite being very handy Volumouse lacks very important feature for me - preset volume levels. I need 11 of them - 1 (100%), 1/2 (50%), 1/2^2 (25%), ..., 1/2^9 (0.195%) and 0. Now I found Volume2. Don't sure whether it can be completely registry-stealth or not (uses HKCU/Run for autorun), at least it saves Config.ini to its folder.
Goodbye Volumouse.
P.S. Still using NirCmd "nircmdc setsysvolume xxxxx" by lnk-files in start-programs menu for setting volume w/o mouse.

It doesn't have functionality far in advance of other editors, but the interface is great. There are big, clear icons, themes, easy tabbed interface, and a really smooth options menu. If you think text editors are supposed to be functional rather than friendly, this might not be your cup of tea. Otherwise...

PapaiMark on 2020-02-25 15:11

Nice. The best text compare Ive ever seen. And mainly because of the trim-left/right.

eitang on 2021-12-10 15:46

Hi all,

Yes, Great editor !!! BUT:

Although it says compatible with Win2K / WinXP / Vista / Win7 / Win8 / Win10 version v18.2.1 is NOT compatible with (at least) Win XP SR3 (which I still use).

I wrote to support@texteditor.pro but no reply as yet.

Anybody has a cure ? a Work Arounfd ? (it may be some useless DLL, for example...)

TIA,
