Just a feature that might be good, so that when PL are restraint a process, by showing that process icon(instead of PL icon), user can know which process are current restraint by looking on the Tray Icon. :D

Ya, and I hope this feature will not be affected by the process icon(in list) bug...

That's not a bad idea, except for the problem of sometimes multiple restraints on several processes happening in the same interval. Still, it doesn't have to be perfect. I'll consider this!

I would be just as happy with a balloon/tooltip that lists the currently restrained processes.

Maybe someone here is skilled enough to make a skin for rainmeter, pulling info from PL log file? :)

Interesting. I could dump the log as an RSS (or other) type of feed... so definitely could inter-operate with that software. I don't have time to fool with creating a skin, but make it so nobody has to worry with pulling things from the log file.

That would be cool I think. I really like rainmeter, since it is so customizable. I'm sure there are people out there willing to put some time into creating a PL skin, if there's an easy way pulling interesting data out of the program.
