PasteIt notes is intended to be used to replace those sticky yellow
notes that many people have stuck all over the place. Just create a
pasteit note and 'stick' it on your screen wherever you like. It
will stay there until you move it or delete it (assuming that the
application is running).
All of your notes will be stored in a "PasteIt Notes Data" document
in the same folder as the application. You may move this document to
your system folder if you wish.

VERSION HISTORY
(changes from 1.0 to 1.0.1)
1. The following sequence was causing a crash.
Create a new note
Set its title
Save it
Change its title to a longer title
Save it
This was due to overwriting the handle used to store the
title in the resource (there was a missing SetHandleSize()). The
application heap was getting corrupted.
2. An unlocked handle was being dereferenced during a
memory move operation (no crashes were reported for this
one).
3. A indication has been added to the title bar for dirty
(not saved) notes.
