----------------------------------------------------------- KEYNOTE Version : 1.6.5 Copyright : (C) Marek Jedlinski 2000-2002 (Freeware) Released : 28 July 2000 License : Mozilla Public License (source code available) ----------------------------------------------------------- HELP AND DOCUMENTATION: The Help file is incomplete and partly outdated. PLEASE READ THE FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) before emailing for support. The FAQ is available at http://freeware.tranglos.com/free/keynote_faq.html Other sources of information: Primary URL: http://www.tranglos.com/free/ (here you can subscribe to mailing lists) Frequently Asked Questions: http://freeware.tranglos.com/free/keynote_faq.html Support / discussion forums: http://forum.tranglos.com KeyNote 2.0 Development FAQ: http://www.tranglos.com/free/knt2devfaq.html View and report bugs: http://mantis.tranglos.com SourceForge (KeyNote 2.0 development): http://sourceforge.net/projects/keynote/ The file "history.txt" is the most important file to look at, especially if you are upgrading from a previous version. New users can also find this file helpful, as it contains detailed information about *all* KeyNote features added since the program was first released. The file "bugs.txt" contains a list of known bugs and limitations of the program. Windows NT and Windows 2000/ME users: you MUST read this file! "sample.knt" - this file is opened automatically when you start KeyNote for the first time. It contains many tips, features, keyboard shortcuts, and showcases some of KeyNote's capabilities. DO NOT USE THIS FILE FOR PERSONAL NOTES! It will be overwritten when you upgrade Keynote to a new version. All these and several other files are located in the "\DOC" subdirectory, below the directory where you installed KeyNote. Please browse through these files before you send a bug report or a support question. Thank you! ----------------------------------------------------------- FURTHER INFORMATION: There are two mailing lists which you can subscribe to, to keep up with the latest news about KeyNote and other freeware programs I wrote. One is an announcement-only list (note more than 2 messages a month; information about major upgrades and additions). The other is an unmoderated discussion list. To subscribe to either list, please go to the General Frenetics Freeware website: http://www.tranglos.com and click the "Mailing lists" link. ----------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT FOR USERS UPGRADING VERSION EARLIER THAN 0.90 As of version 0.90, KeyNote supports two major new features: encrypting the KeyNote files and creating Tree-type notes. These features are incompatible with any previous release of KeyNote. Therefore, encrypted files or files which contain Tree-type notes cannot be opened using any version of KeyNote earlier than 0.90. However, any file that does NOT use these features will be automatically saved in a format that is compatible with earlier releases of KeyNote. ----------------------------------------------------------- SOURCE CODE: KeyNote is an open-source program, distributed under Mozilla Public License (MPL). You can download full KeyNote source code from http://sourceforge.net/projects/keynote/ (Borland Delphi 3.0 required to compile. You may need to install some third-party components, some of which are included in the distribution.) ----------------------------------------------------------- Please see file "acknowledgments.txt" for a list of third-party components without which I would certainly not have been able to take KeyNote as far as it is today. ----------------------------------------------------------- CONTACTING THE AUTHOR ----------------------------------------------------------- Primary URL: http://www.tranglos.com Primary email address: marek@tranglos.com Alternate email address: marekjed@users.sourceforge.net NOTES: Please do NOT send HTML-formatted email to any of the addresses above. All HTML-formatted email will be bounced to sender. It will NOT be read or answered. Please do NOT send any irrelevant attachments (.vcf cards, graphic backgrounds, "winmail.dat" files, etc). Attachments are OK if they are directly relevant to a program you are contacting me about: for instance, if you are reporting a bug, you are welcome to attach a screenshot where the bug is apparent (but please send GIF or JPG images only, no bitmaps unless they are compressed!). PGP signatures are welcome. Please do not request that files be sent to you via email. I have a rather slow and metered connection. Since all the software I offer for downloading is free, I would really like to avoid any additional costs. Whatever is available can be downloaded directly from the website. Thank you. ----------------------------------------------------------- Questions, comments, suggestions: email No HTML-formatted email please!
