DESCRIPTION
BlocNotes it's a WB commodity that permits to take some notes.
When you hit a custom hotkey it opens a window: in that window
you can insert as much text as you want. All the text will be
stored, together with a description of the window, in a file, so,
at startup, all the previously opened windows will be reopened,
each one with its text.
3.0 version has great enhancements(see end of file for details).
It's possible to open a great number of windows(in theory there's
no limit but Intuition can't look at too much windows together).
For each window you can set the textfont, the size and position
and some other stuffs(as GADGETLESS or EDITABLE). You can set for
each thing a default value.
It supports completely the clipboard, so you can copy text from a
shell to a note-window or viceversa. You can also import or
export files. All the windows can be closed or completely deleted
with a simple command.
Every window has simple editing function and text scrolling, so
it's not necessary to size the window at its max dimensions.
