[lamer]

I'm not sure this is the place - may be this topic should belong to othere theme.
Any way, I wrote a little program - PNotes (Pinned Notes) for managing desktop notes. Substantially for my self and colleagues, but somebody can find it (or any part of code) usefull.

+ to make a "always on top" flag for each note
+ A nice feature would be to open a network port for listen and open a pnote from another (allowed PC)
+ to make a button for sending a note to another PC (IP address/Netname).

Did you mean "always on top" for all notes? Because the option exists for each single note.

+ A nice feature would be to open a network port for listen and open a pnote from another (allowed PC)
+ to make a button for sending a note to another PC (IP address/Netname).

I try to make the program as much more portable (and simplier) as possible - after all it's just desktop notes, nothing more . IMHO, these features will not add it portability. May be "send by e-mail"...

lamer,

Nice job!  Yes, keep it simple.

Really well done!
It's hard to believe it's done just with plain C and Windows API.
The .exe is small, light and fast, but still it's lots of work.

Congratulations!

Hi all!
PNotes project moved to http://pnotes.sourceforge.net.
New version is available since 18 Jan 2008.
# Simple edit box is replaced by rich edit - since now any portion of note's text can be formatted separately, applying font properties, highlighting and alignment
# Added hyperlinks recognition
# Added option for autosave mode - all notes will be autosaved in appointed interval
# Each note can now be saved by pressing Ctrl+S
# First characters of note are now used as default note's name instead of creation timestamp
# Added Drag-&-Drop support
# Added "Save All" command
# Because of rich edit format each note is stored as separate file, instead of previous versions, where all notes are saved in single notes.pndb file. Notes from previous versions can be imported by choosing "Preferences->Misc->Get notes from previous versions"
# Command line arguments are changed as well. In previous version swicth -config had two arguments: Notes.ini file location and optional Notes.pndb file location. In the current version -config still has two arguments, but the second optional arguments is now "data" directory location, and should not be a file name
# Bug fixed - notes are saved automatically on system shutdown (if option "Save all on shutdown" is selected)

Regards,
lamer
