Snarl 3.1 / 4.0 DR4 | 10.3/10.2 Mb
Snarl is all about notifications. They can be displayed on-screen in a variety of shapes, colours and sizes; they may be spoken out loud, sent to your mobile phone, another computer, and so on. All made possible by an easy-to-implement API that applications use to generate notifications and a simple user interface to manage them. But that’s not all...
Features
• It just works. Once Snarl is installed existing applications register with it automatically and start generating notifications immediately. Snarl provides the user with the ability to determine which notifications an application displays, how they are displayed, and where. So you have control over notifications; not the application.
• It's easy to use. Whether you’re a developer adding Snarl support to your application, or an end-user configuring the look and feel of individual notifications, Snarl makes it all a breeze. And, as well as being able to quickly add support to applications, anyone with a copy of Notepad can also create incredibly powerful styles and extensions.
• Notifications anywhere. With the ability to send notifications to other devices, forward notifications to remote computers and receive notifications from other computers – all over a variety of protocols – Snarl becomes a central point for alerting you to what’s going on – no matter where you are.
A large number of notification types
By default, Snarl comes with a diversity of alert types that are of general use. You get notifications for clipboard content change, reminders, alarms, high processor use, low disk space, connected or disconnected devices, exhausted physical memory and much more.
A really great thing about the application is that you can download and install add-ons which allow Snarl to communicate with other software that you have on your computer. This way, you are able to get notifications when someone contacts you on your IM application or such.
Easy to configure notifications
For each each registered application, Snarl enables you to customize its corresponding notification in terms of appearance, behavior, forwarding and redirection. You can choose to have the notification displayed in a specific style, set transparency, select its onscreen position and color tint.
In terms of behavior, Snarl makes sure that you are not constantly nagged about changes that occur. It allows you to manually set the priority of the notifications along with their duration or you can let the application decide for you.
While it is running, Snarl creates and displays an icon in the system tray area. From there, you can quickly access the application add-ons and set the conditions that trigger the alerts.
Redirect and log notifications
With Snarl, you can install add-ons that allow it to send the notifications and their content to other destinations rather than on your computer. They are recorded as log files and can be sent to web services or external devices.
Create custom notifications in a simple way
To sum things up, Snarl is by far one of the most practical, intuitive and easy to use notification systems out today and it can certainly help you keep track of all kinds of events.
Supported on Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, and 8 and equivalent Windows Server variants.
