RL VISION NEWS
Apr 09, 2012 - PORTABLE VERSIONS UPDATED
-
I have updated all portable versions with a new "launcher". The previous caused some anti-virus software to triggered it as malicious (a false positive of course). This should be fixed now as I have completely re-written it. In addition to this, the portable versions will now work with command line options too!
Mar 12, 2012 - RLV BLOG STARTED!

Jan 7, 2012 - PORTABLE VERSIONS!
-
Update week is coming to an end, and I have saved the best for last! I am now offering all my programs as zipped portable downloads in addition to the normal installers! Portable version do not need to be installed, and save their settings in their own folder. This means that you can move them to a new place or even another computer by just copying the folder! If you are unsure of what this means, I recommend that you keep with the ordinary installer versions.

-
Day 4 of update week brings perhaps the most unexpected update: PDF Wiz has been updated with a brand new processing mode, allowing you to render whole pdf pages and save as images, complete with text, bitmaps and vector images.

July 25, 2011 - SNAP2HTML 1.0!
-
I've been fiddling with a new programming language (C#) and environment (.Net) lately, and I thought it would be a good excercise to try and something "real". I decided on a little utility that I have been thinking of putting together for a while: Snap2HTML lets you create folder structure listings and save as an interactive HTML file with fancy features.

June 24, 2011 - REPLACE GENIUS 2.0!
-
Big news today! Replace Genius is a brand new program making its debut today. Any of you familiar with Flash Renamer will instantly recognize how it works, but instead of filenames it loads text files that you process each line in. I hope many of you will find this useful! (Since the code is based on Flash Renamer and it is fully loaded with functionality right from the start, I have decided to bump the version to 2.0 even though this is the first public release.)

I had a little spare time so I made a completely new program. Based on PDF Wiz, Office Wiz give you the ability to easily export images from various documents and save them as separate images files. As this is the first release, it only contains the most basic functions, but I plan add more in the future. This first release is freeware!

Aug 17, 2010 - NSF TOOL 2.0!
-
Many years ago, I made a small program that I called NSF Tool. It is a simple utility for managing your "NES Sound Format" collection. I released it on my personal homepage, which I have since closed. Lately I have been working on updating this program and today I decided that it was time to release this update!
April 8, 2010 - HOT SPOT STUDIO 2.0!
-
Surprise! Yet another brand new program for you all! Hot Spot Studio is a program I whipped together a couple of years ago, but never got around to release. I finally set off some time and made it into a "real" program. It's mostly a fun toy to play around with, but it is surprisingly addictive and I'm sure you will find yourself hooked on creating abstract masterpieces! :-)
March 23, 2010 - PDF IMAGE WIZ 4.0!
-
It's time for an update to PDF Wiz. This time I have added batch functionality so you can extract image from many PDFs in a single go! I have also split the program into two versions; Basic and Pro. For differences see here. Already registered users are automatically upgraded to the Pro version!
March 15, 2010 - NOTEPAD2 BOOKMARK EDITION

February 22, 2010 - BEEP.EXE
-
Some years ago I made a very simple program that simply makes a notification sound through the PC speaker. I use it to tell when my PC has booted and is ready to use. I figured that someone else might find it useful too, so I made it available here on my site today!
