I'll be moving tomorrow and losing Internet for a few days, that's what they tell me anyway.
Version 1.5.1 is looking good and a benefit to the adding categories is being able to multi-select actions and assign a category or remove the actions.
I'll also look at the reports of the Push to Deactivate (PTD) key and TS not working.
