Organizer: PNotes 7.0.107

Managing your day-to-day life is not an easy job to do. There are so many things to concern for – housekeeping, shopping, children… And what about cousin’s birthday you always forget or important phone numbers? Undoubtedly your working place is covered with dusty yellow (or blue, or pink) sticky notes. If so – PNotes is right for you. Throw the physical stickies away and replace them with virtual ones on your desktop.

PNotes (Pinned Notes or Portable Notes, use what you prefer) is written entirely in C and Windows API (with Pelles C for Windows IDE) – so it is fast and light-weight.

  • Ease of use – no installation, just unpack the downloaded archive to any location and run PNotes.exe.
  • Formatting – format and design each note as you wish, using all the advantages of rich text formatting.
  • Skins – there is a variety of skins for PNotes but if you wish, you can run the program in skinless mode, in which case you can stretch notes to any reasonable size.
  • Transparency – you can set notes’ transparency level from opaque to fully transparent. If you enable this feature each note can have its own transparency level.
  • Scheduling – use various schedule types to be reminded about significant events by many different ways. Using this feature you may just hide notes and don’t worry, you’ll be notified in time.
  • Overdue notes tracking – stay alerted even with overdue reminders.
  • Password protection – prevents unauthorized access to program.
  • Encryption – allows all your notes to be stored as encrypted files, so nobody could read their content, even in case you lose your USB stick.
  • Control Panel – this is your central command post. All management is put into effect here.
  • Groups – divide notes into groups of your choice, create new groups and subgroups, control all by mouse click or drag-and-drop.
  • Docking – dock your notes to any side of the screen, forcing them always to be straightened and look like a panel.
  • Searching – search for (or replace) text fragments in all notes, including hidden or in each separate note, or find notes with specified title.
  • Favorites – access intensively used notes by a single click.
  • Custom fonts – use your custom fonts which are not installed on current machine.
  • E-mailing – send notes via e-mail as mail body text or as attachment to any target with PNotes running and open attached note on target machine.
  • Recycle Bin – you decide how you want to delete the unneeded note: completely or send it to Recycle Bin with ability to restore it later.
  • Backing up – you decide whether to make backup copies for changed notes and what is the deepness of backup levels.
  • Internationalization – PNotes is fully Unicode supported and translated into many languages.
  • Portability – PNotes does not require installation, it can be started from any drive (fixed or flash) and leaves no traces on host computer after finishing.
  • Other features – of course there are many other unmentioned features in program, but I suggest you to discover them by yourself, these are delights of any new program, aren’t they?
