Pastor ReviewGreat little app, but some minor issues... - Version: 1.8, 4/23/2008 08:43AM PST

I've used this app for years now and it does what it's supposed to do. With the new release, I was hoping that it's possible to open a default document but instead, Pastor now opens a new document every time. Not sure what purpose that serves.
Please, please - if I had one request, please add the option to open a default document when opening the app - would make life even easier.

I fully agree with previous reviewers, the app is great although the INTERFACE is kind of surprising and disturbing.

Examples:
- the user discovers how to enter a password (including the one generated with the tool provided) only when, after having tried everything, decides to give up and quits the app: this is when the "enter password" dialogue shows up!
- now a new, cryptic, mention appears in red when I open the app from my own corresponding Pastor document: "This is a beta release of Pastor! Use it with a copy of your Pastor Document only!". I'm the only user of the app, and there is only one Document attached, did I do something wrong?

This somehow "impredictable" behavior has prompted me to create somewhere else a (encrypted) backup file with my data: you never know .... Next time, I may end up asking myself why to use Pastor in the first place....

I wish the developer will keep in mind that TRUST and PREDICTABILITY is good for all apps, but absolutely fundamental for THIS category of apps! You don't lock a door if you have doubts about what it will happen next time you want to open it!
