127.0.0.1

I need a replacement for Windows Calculator. Prefer a "printing" version if
possible.

Currently using magnify but pain in the ...

Could also use a better screen magnify that can toggle on/off or some such
thing. At least more user friendly. Used to have a better one on the old
computer; can't find it.

Looking also for a program that "attaches" to a file (not just a folder) for
comments or description of what's in the file (so opening isn't needed).
Used to have one of those too, with the only glitch that you lost the
comment if you moved the file.

Any disability (freeware) sites links woiuld help too.

I'd search but takes forever with that d*mn "magnify" windows gives.

thanks

Have you thought about changing the screen resolution of your monitor?
If you have please disregard this suggestion.

I did a little scouting. The sites I found that listed disability
software were woefully out of date. If there is a good site out there
I'd like to hear about it - if there isn't ISTM making a list of apps
would be a worthwhile project for someone.

I'm actually compiling some on my site I am revamping at the moment,
including all things disability including freeware, so I'll give a shout
when it's done (I'm very disabled, so please be patient!)

Bless you. :) From what I saw better Freeware info is sorely needed.
Please keep us posted.
