Rocket

The first time I heard about Rocket, I was somewhat confused. I have been looking for something like this ever since I purchased MacVish. As a result of this confusion, I downloaded MacVish to see if Rocket would do the same things as MacVish. What I discovered about Rocket is that it does exactly what the Mac version did, but it also works on the Windows platform, which is nice because it let's me use my computer on both Macs and PCs. The reason I like Rocket over MacVish is that they both do the same basic thing, but one has a Mac-like side where you can tap your keyboard to bring up options, and the other has a Windows side with a lot of different options that are not available on the Mac version. Once you download and install Rocket onto your PC, you will then be able to launch the app from your desktop. What is neat about Rocket is that you can then use "tap keys" to launch your programs instead of having to hit keys with your mouse. Basically, you just utilize the same method you would in Photoshop or SketchUp, but instead of hitting those keys the actual touch of your fingers on your computer keys will do the trick. Trigger keys, followed by an emote name, are utilized to launch Rocket. For instance, using the trigger key ":" uses the default start of an emote name, which is "Space". Another nice feature of the software is the ability to store and retrieve your latest documents by setting up a system of tabs. This means you can have one tab for your documents and notes, one for your photos and one for your games. If you prefer to type everything manually, you can set up tabs for each individual section of your documents, so you have access to your documents without even having to go to the Rocket web-based word processing software. Overall, Rocket Typist is a great cross-platform typing software tool that is easy to learn and use.
