PNotes is a program that will allow you to remember important things.

This utility will allow you to create virtual post-its that you can place anywhere on your desktop, reminding you about meetings, events, dates, birthdays, phone numbers and every piece of important information you must remember.

PNotes stands for Pinned Notes. When you run the program, it will remain quietly as an icon in the system toolbar. You can access to its commands by right clicking on that icon.

You can make a new note, using your preferred font type, color or size. You can underline whatever you want, and write the text in italics or bold, applying your preferred alignment. You can adjust the note appearance, by changing the caption font or background color, and its schedule, so it will appear in your desktop at a given time, or at given intervals. You can also dock the note to your desktop, or send it out to someone as an email attachment.

For a better management, you can create groups, and classify your notes into them. You can even save notes to your hard disk, and load them into PNotes whenever you want.


v8.0 [Jul 6, 2011]
Fixed bugs: Note's content is not shown on Control Panel when Control Panel is loaded at startup; "mailto:" link in notes doesn't work (discovered by Nartan Sijbrandij). Notes' exchange between computers on local network (disabled by default). All exchange related settings and contacts management are at Preferences->Network. If you want to enable exchange, you have to permit network access to the program in your firewall rules. Sending notes - right click on note, "Send Via Network" and choose contact to send. You may also send to multiple contacts by choosing "Send Via Network"->"Select Contacts". New predefined group "Incoming" added to Control Panel. Option to protect individual note or group of notes with password (right click on note, select "Set Note Password"/"Remove Note Password" or choose group at Control Panel and then "Set Group Password"/"Remove Group Password"). Password protected notes and groups will be shown only after entering right password. You may also check the "Do not show note's content at Control Panel if note or its group is password protected" at Preferences->Protection->Miscellaneous in order to show "******" instead of note content at Control Panel. "Sent To:", "Sent At:", "Received From:", "Received At:", "Password protected" and "Created" columns added to Control Panel.
Wrappable toolbar on Control Panel. Option to show big icons on Control Panel's toolbar. Option to immediately hide notes marked as completed (suggested by bejobe). Option to show/hide notes by last creation/modification date - several predefined periods (suggested by bejobe). Option to search notes by last creation/modification date. Rolling/unrolling notes accordingly to position (rolled note located at the bottom of screen will unroll up, and not down) (suggested by Jose James). New unsaved notes are deleted completely without moving to Recycle bin. Newly created notes are saved after scheduling, even if they are empty (suggested by Wolfram Schelzel). New command line switches: -b for backup (suggested by cominder), -confnonetwork or -confignonetwork (the same as -conf or -config, just without exchange ability) -nonetwork (program starts without exchange ability). Preferences dialog will show menu items in addition to command buttons (OK, Apply etc) on computers with low screen resolution (suggested by gino1307). Option to hide both Delete and Hide button of note (suggested by charles80). Order of menu items in main menu is changed to more consistent (suggested by Sergey Christov). Note's toolbar on skinless notes changes position when note is resizing. All program resources (icons, bitmaps) stored in separate library (pnotes.resources), which decreases program size by hundreds of kilobytes. Skins are changed in order to conform new options (note password protection) - please, update your skins if you have any. Code revised. New version of PNShortcutManager - support for new command line switches.
