Notes

Every version of the MacOS to ship for many years contained a small utility named NotePad. It was, unsuprisingly, a very good place to keep reminders and notes without having to keep track of numberous small files or clippings. When I installed Mac OS X with the intention of learning to program in Cocoa, I quickly realized that there was no such place to keep the kind of records or reminders that NotePad offered. Notes was started as a 'Hello World!' type project, through after several complete rewrites as I learned, became a serious project.

Some of the features offered by Notes:

• Easy orgainisation of ideas, notes, and reminders.
• Simple, intuitive interface.
• Full control of text font and size.
• Advanced text editing features, Rulers, Kerning, Ligature, and Baseline.
• Color Text.
• Supports pictures and graphics.
• Import notes from RTF, RTFd, and text.
• Export notes to RTFd.
• Notes can be re-ordered in the list through drag and drop, and categorized into folders.
• Take Note system service, for quick and easy note taking.
• Move To menu system, for ease in organization.
• Search for text in any note.
