Product Description:

VoodooPad Lite is the stripped down free version of VoodooPad.

VoodooPad is a new kind of notepad. It's like having your own digital junk drawer, where you can jot down notes, web addresses, to-do lists... Anything on your mind. VoodooPad automatically links each page together, to form a miniature world wide web just for you! Anybody familiar with WikiWikiWeb will feel right at home with VoodooPad.

Type in your notes, and highlight important words or phrases to create new pages; or drag and drop folders, applications, or URLs into VoodooPad - they're linked up whenever the word representing it is found.

What's new in this version:

Made it possible for bookmarklet type urls to work when created via a custom url (under the Edit menu, and deletable / editable in the document info palette).
Updated the JSTalk plugin, and you can now do jstalk: and javascript: bookmarklet type links.
Changed the order in which VoodooPad plugins are loaded. First, the user's plugins folder is checked, then /Library, and finally the included plugins from VoodooPad.
Fixed a bug where VP would allow you to change the formatting of an encrypted page to plain text.
Fixed a bug where VP woudln't let you delete an encrypted page.
Fixed a bug where VP would mess up an encrypted page if you used the Bucket to append text to it.
Fixed a problem where you couldn't change a document password in VoodooPad.
If a URL ends with a '.' or ',', it is no longer included in the link. While ending with a '.' or ',' is a valid url, it is much more common to have a URL at the end of a sentence or next to a comma, then to have a URL which ends with a '.' or ','.
Trying out a switch to the LLVM/Clang compiler.
Return of the Text Styles palette (just for Mike!).
VoodooPad will no longer override custom links. For example- let's say you have a page named "iPhoto", and you want to link the phrase "Using Acorn with iPhoto" to the iPhoto page. Previously VP wouldn't let you do this, since the word iPhoto appeared in the phrase. This type of custom link now works in 4.2.3.

Flying Meat very kindly got back to me regarding their bug that installs version 4.0 of VPL, which is 10.5 LEOPARD ONLY, on top of the last working version for 10.4 Tiger, v3.5.2. Gus, from their support team, wrote me:

"Sorry for the confusion. You can download old versions of VoodooPad from here:

"hope that helps"

I was ticked off to find that Voodoo Pad Lite FALSELY reported to me that a new version was available and offered to install it. Like a good little user I said yes. Turns out I was really a luser because what was installed wasn't compatible with my Mac OS version, which was 10.4.11. Darn. Now I have to go dig up an older version of Voodoo Pad Lite so I can use it again.

I wrote a report to the developer about their bug.

It is terrific that the Lite version is offered for free. I am grateful. But when a program sabotages itself due to a developer blunder, I am deservedly miffed. :-P

I just started to use this little app (the free version), and it seems very nice. However, it seems it is not possible to copy text in another application (TextEdit for example) and to paste it in VoodooPad Lite... This makes this app that could be great not so efficient...
