The author has discontinued development of 40tude Dialog for
Microsoft® Windows while it was still in beta. So it was never
intended to be a finished piece software. Therefore, it has some
shortcomings, and it has not been updated since about 2005-03.

OTOH, one does not have to write scripts or use regular expressions
to use it as it is. Scripts allow some customizations, for example
to take body text into account for scoring. And one does not have
to /write/ scripts, but can download prefabricated scripts.

+1
I gave 40tude up in the year 2003. Concept, workflow and optical
presentation were outdated at the beginning of this century.
