Beta Testing

If you've tried the new app organization in 'smart' mode, you may notice that it's not quite what we'd like as a default view. Currently, it lists favorites first. Then all other apps are listed by the number of times they've been run. I'm thinking it may make more sense to sort them by when they were last run instead. Possibly even adding in the ability for an app you just added to filter to the top for a day or so. What do you think?

Application: Jarte
Category: Office
Description: Jarte is a tabbed word processor based on the Microsoft WordPad word processing engine built into Windows. Like WordPad, Jarte is fast starting, easy to use, reliable, requires little screen space, and creates documents perfectly compatible with Word. But Jarte reveals the WordPad engine's true hidden power by adding many features Microsoft never made available in the WordPad program.

I am in the process off finalizing Jarte as a portable app. I have permission of the author and in fact he will be releasing a new version next week that will even be more PortableApps friendly. This would be for the freeware version. My question is is there any conflict in the TOS of PortableApps since he also has a paid version as well?
