Thanks to all who replied to my
question. I am pleased to know this little gem hasn't been abandoned;
I just love its functionality and convenience and would have kept using
it anyway. I appreciate the prompt response and I will definitely get my name on your User's List. Sincerely, Bethany Shawn K.

We are currently in the process of alpha-testing the 4.0 branch, already resolves much of the XP trouble many have faced, and it also has ballooned the number of included "searches" to well over 300. At current count I believe there are about 375, and I have another 10 or so left in my upload queue, waiting for CVS to work properly again.You can still see the latest stable build (3.1.9.2) on the DQSD.net homepage here: http://www.dqsd.net/ Which soon, hopefully, will be replaced by the 4.x build.

Kim and others have done the lion's share of the build/release work over the last couple of years while some of us have been AWOL. Is there some feature you really wish it had that it doesn't have now? That's usually how improvements on this little proggie happen, a user suggests a change and someone has enough interest in the same feature to dig in and make it happen. Personally, I still use it several times a day. But I'm busy enough with life and other projects (that pay better), and am content enough with its functionality to simply use it, and usually avoid the temptation to enhance it.
