- INTRODUCTION:
-
- Are you still looking for the ideal note-taking program? A program that
- allows you to take random notes and also helps you organize the vast
- amount of random information that you collect every day. A program where
- you can find your notes on any subject easily, a program that allows you
- to keep large bodies of text, related or unrelated, grouped into folders
- of your choice. Well, look no more. You have arrived! WhizNotes can do
- all that for you.
-
- What's more, WhizNotes even lets you link your notes by hypertext
- links by a simple drag and drop. The advantage of hypertext is that
- you can jump from note to note by double-clicking on these links. In
- WhizNotes' hypertext scheme, any note which is not already open is
- opened for you and if the note is contained in another folder, even that
- folder is opened for you. AND THAT IS NOT ALL! WhizNotes is also a Help
- authoring system. Turn your notes into "WINDOWS hypertext help" easily
- and effortlessly.
-
- Combine this with the ability to give long names to the notes and the
- folders, and you will be delighted with how much you can accomplish with
- WhizNotes. Start using WhizNotes and say goodbye to your journals, logs
- and diaries. No restrictions. You can enter free-format text in your notes
- and search for it in free-format as well.
