Well, that one went down so well [thanks for your thoughts, Dreamcatcher] here's another. I found one of the most boring parts of writing a website, even a modest one, is checking that all the links are correct. Xenu, a little freeware utility from http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html checks all your links [or anyone else's links, for that matter] in just a few moments. Like Photocopier it is a smallish download and is a stand alone program, so it can be easily deleted if you don't like it. Worth it's weight in pprunes.
And to answer your question DC, many low end scanners come with basic Textbridge or similar recognition software, a modest image editing package, but no easy to use one-click copying program. Try Papercom if you want a definition of clunky, for example. Also, Photocopier works with NT!
