StickIt2, the Amiga sticky note reminder program
************************************************

Copyright (C) 1993,1994 Andy Dean.

Welcome to StickIt2, the Amiga sticky note reminder program!

Requirements
************

   StickIt2 will run on any Amiga equipped with AmigaDos 2.04 and
above. It requires no third-party libraries, and will work with the
non-scalable diskfont library (version 36) although you won't get
scalable fonts then :-).

What is StickIt?
****************

   StickIt2 is a replacement for the good ol' Post-It note. It allows
you to stick notes on your screen which will be displayed every time
you reboot; useful to remind you of things to do.

   StickIt2 was written with a job to do... to replace all the bits of
paper I used to leave around to remind me to do something. I have tried
to write a program to do that with the minimum of fuss and with a nice
clean Workbench 2 interface. I have tried to make the program
configurable enough for each user's needs, without over-doing it.

Program features
****************

   StickIt version 2.00 supports the following features:

   * StickIt2 can have up to 100 notes in use at any time.

   * StickIt2's notes can be in any colour.

   * StickIt2's notes can use any font in any colour, size and style.
     Each note can have its own font.

   * StickIt2's notes are directly editable (like typing text into a
     word processor).

   * StickIt2's notes are resizable using a discrete hidden resize
     gadget.

   * StickIt2's notes can open on any public screen.

   * StickIt2 runs as a commodity.

   * StickIt2 uses the system clipboard.

   * StickIt2 can be run from either Workbench or the CLI with full
     tooltype support in both cases.

   * StickIt2 has a font sensitive GadTools interface designed with the
     excellent "The Designer". See Credits.

   * StickIt version 2.00 is only 7k larger than StickIt-1.03.

   The limits imposed by the program are:

   * The note may only contain 4k of text (just over 4,000 characters).

   * The title bar may only contain 128 characters of text.
