Agreed. I sent the developer an email and promptly received a response:

..."I did not expect the publicity Tyler would receive after the revival - please allow for a few days for us to organize and react.

An update is under way."...

In conclusion, no need for refunds yet. I for one can't wait to see updates. It's almost there... a few more bug fixes and 1 or 2 small features and it'll be worth the €7.99 I spent on it.

I agree. Though a more useful constructor would be nice for naked dicts. I've created a helper function that allows for nicer construction of dicts based on other dicts and potential new fields:

https://gist.github.com/24651d78d3f1e3dec6f4 :

def new_dict(args, *kwargs):

    """
    Create new dicts

    >>> new_dict({1:2}, {2:5}, foo=5)
    {1: 2, 2: 5, 'foo': 5}

    """
    d = {}
    for arg in args:
        d.update(arg)
    d.update(kwargs)
    return d
d = new_dict(old_dict1, old_dict2, old_dictN, foo='bar')
