Some tips that make using Eraser more convenient or help you to maintain your privacy better are discussed on this section.
 
Reading tasks from a different file  
 
If you want Eraser to read initial tasks from a file different from the default.ers located in the application folder, you can specify the initial file on the command line - eraser.exe alternative.ers for example. The file specified on the command line will be used only to read the tasks, when leaving the program, tasks will be saved to the default.ers file.  
 
Shortcuts  
 
Most Eraser windows contain keyboard shortcuts allowing you to use them without needing to grab the mouse. The shortcut keys for different commands can be found from the menus.  
 
Animated icons
