HandRecorder
HandRecorder is a program that will allow you to easily save hands for later review without diverting your attention from playing other hands.
The hands you save will be displayed in a format much more readable than the original hand history and you will be able to look up stats for your
opponents with ease.
You can download the latest version (v0.9c) here (8092 downloads).
