Product Description:
A slipbox is really just this: a loose collection of slips stuffed into a box. Each time you have an idea that seems worth remembering you scribble down a note on an (electronic) slip and put it into the box. Then you forget about it. When the time comes that you need those ideas the functionality of the program helps you to quickly find relevant slips and, what is more, relations and links between different slips by associative searches.
What's new in this version:
New features
- Image resizing
- Segmented control for most common font commands
- Search Results table has columns for source, author, creation date, modification date (set via View menu)
- Arranging the Extra Slip Windows on the screen so they are all visible (if there is enough space; experimental)
- Dock menu containing Keyword Search and Source Search
- Dock icon accepts drop of images, text, RTF files and web links; this creates a new slip
- Function to add a keyword to the slips selected in the Search Results table
- Contextual menu for tables: Searches in Spotlight, Wikipedia, Google; Lookup in Dictionary; Copy (Slip); Add Keyword; Replace Keyword
- Removed `Show title column in Search View' button from Preferences window
- `Find related slips in documents in Spotlight' works depending on the current view
- Changing a slip scrolls the visible area to the top of the slip, not the current selection
- Highlight colour is now also an on/off feature when no text is selected
- Moved `Close All Extra Slip Windows' menu item to Windows menu
- Copying a slip also puts a String and an RTFD representation on the pasteboard
- Toggling the flagged status in the Search Results Table works if multiple results are selected
- Option to set titles as filenames for export to separate files
- Restored menu item to unflag all slips

I have been using SlipBox since early October and am more and more pleased by it. And Spotlight seems to have no problem with it either. I use it for simple things like iTunes receipts, complicated projects involving information pulled from a lot of different web sites, almost all the info I want to store somewhere and be able to find again. Since I can define Type (i.e., Receipt) and Source (i.e, iTunes, VersionTracker) and add whatever keywords seem crucial to a search or memory jog, I can work a lot faster and not have to wonder whether I can find an item later. And SlipBox is not a CPU drain nor a memory hog. It is a good program that does what it says it will.
very useful app - but did spotlight stop working in 0.7.2? - Version: 0.7.2, 9/15/2006 07:48PM PST

been using 0.7.1 for a little while and finding it great way to organise
and search my usually disorganised notes.
I use shift-cmd-M (paste selection into a new slip) and using spotlight to search. Slipbox does more than this, but this is the feature that really saves me a lot of time.
If you havent tried this app and want something quick then give it a go.
Spotlight seemed to have stopped working for me on 0.7.2 though? - reverted back to 0.7.1 and I'm happy again.

Downloads, installs, runs (or should I say "launches"?). Otherwise, it just sits there doing nothing. Tried every command that wasn't greyed out, and absolutely nothing happened (OS X 10.3.9).
