Installed Ians tcl sticky notes Cool

eventually found the runnable file is put in usr/bin
(had to read the documentation to find that - maybe on Linux but Windows users are NEVER gonna read that) Confused

The documentation and help file is brill Smile

sadly when I tried to grab - this is what I got - the menu dissolved

I was trying to grab from the help file in sticky notes and had just dragged the about or help over the scticky note program - this caused the loss of focus or refresh. The thing is I had no menu . . .

I downloaded the latest version from contributed dotpups
Any other testers get this?

Lobster,

there is another program.
Maybe it is not interesting for you, as it is slightly different.

You have no menue, because it automatically saves your notes, when you switch to another weekday or exit.

It is part of this collection:

You also can download only this single program (and delete the .exe files, they are just required on windows):

I personally prefer several notes in one window instead of several windows.

Looks nice - I think I recognise some of those pots. Surely not Lobster pots . . .

Many thanks - tend to use the default editor - Beaver (would prefer leafpad) for single notes - and Tuxcard pupget for the above tabbed browse / edit

Will certainly give it a go Cool

I extracted the xpad_1.12-1.backports.org.1_i386 and then the data.tar.gz
All you need is just the binary and possibly icons. It can be put in any directory. Right click for menus.
