Getting Started With Anagram

First, make sure Anagram is running. There should be a small Anagram icon like the following in your task bar next to the clock:

You may need to click the small arrow to expose unused icons that are hidden by windows.

If that icon is not there you will need to find and double click the installer file that you downloaded called anagram_vx.x.x_installer.exe. (x.x.x is the version number, such as 2.9.0). If you cannot find this file, you can download it again by clicking here.

Once you've found the Anagram icon, hold the mouse cursor over it without clicking for a few seconds and Anagram's status will pop up, like this:

This will tell you what shortcut key(s) you have configured. In this case, F12.

You can change the shortcut key at any time through Anagram's "Target Apps" preferences. Click the Anagram icon to pop up a menu and find the "Target Apps..." option, like this:

Finally, once you know what shortcut key Anagram is using, just highlight some text in any application and then press that key to capture the text into a new contact or calendar item, like this:

Anagram will process the text and display a new item immediately. Anagram intelligently determines the type of text you selected and chooses the type of item appropriately.
