Sticky notes (a.k.a. Snotes)
Description
I kind of like the idea of sticking little notes to my desktop - just like you would stick yellow stickers on your fridge. For a long time, I used knotes for that purpose but got really really tired of the KDE connection. (No - I dont think KDE is neat - its rather heavy and has too many superflously features. I like small programs who only does one job; but does it well :-) ).
So in lack of (good) alternatives, I decided to write my own version of knotes: Snotes (for Sticky Notes). If you compare knotes and snotes (and disregard the KDE-connection) you will see that
- The basic idea, as well as the basic layout, is the same.
- Knotes has a more polished view than Snotes.
- Overall Snotes is more configurable than Knotes.
As said before, I basically wrote Snotes for my own use, so there are missing features which I do not plan to invest much time in. I can perfectly use Snotes as it is now.
 Release 1.1.0
BEWARE!!!
The data in Snotes are not encrypted. It is stored in plain text in ~/.snotes/ and information stored with Snotes should therefor NOT be security sensitive information - e.g. passwords.
I specifically made Snotes, so when I opened an SSH connection to my computer I would still be able to read my notes.
