PinUp Notes Version 1.1 for Microsoft Windows Copyright (C) 1991 Jonathan Reed PinUp Notes is a shareware program. You are welcome to try it out free of charge. However, if you like it and decide to keep it on your system, you are obligated to register your copy by paying $5.95 U.S. to the author at the address given below. Registration entitles you to legally use this and all future releases of PinUp notes, notification of future releases, and limited technical support. PinUp notes provides small pop-up windows for taking notes and capturing graphics. Upon running PINUP11.EXE, a PinUp Notes icon will appear at the bottom of your screen. Double click the left mouse button on the icon to create a text note. Double click the right mouse button to create a bitmap note. Both types of notes may be created from the icon's system menu as well. Text notes are used to enter and store text from the keyboard. Simply select the note and type in. Bitmap notes are used to copy and store regions of the screen. To do this, select the Grab option from the bitmap note's system menu, and use the mouse to outline the rectangular region to be copied. The image will be stretched to fit into the dimensions of the note window. Both kinds of notes may be minimized. Also, a note's caption may be changed to reflect its contents by selecting the Caption option from the note's system menu. Upon exiting Windows, any notes that are still open will be saved in a file named PINUP11.NTS. The notes will then be automatically restored the next time PinUp Notes is executed. Loading PinUp Notes from your WIN.INI file makes this feature particularly useful. One last tip...clicking left once on the PinUp Notes icon brings all existing notes to the top of any other windows currently displayed on the screen.
