No, tried and gave up after first screen. So I tried again and did go beyond the mnemonics... Alas, still not a happy camper. Why two stars? + one (can't be less) + one for the effort - the first screen with 12 mnemonics - couldn't find any proper documentation or instructions (unless you want a wiki for compiling) - the functions are very limited (and cumbersome, I am afraid)

Offers a variety functions as expected, not just on/off... and without those moronic mnemonics :D
