Product Description:

MacNote3 is an advanced version of MacNote and is a whole new version of the earlier MacNote2. It still responds to commands very quickly and has a familiar interface, but also has many additional features, such as facilities for selecting multiple pages and exporting images. MacNote3 is easy to use (it's similar to Notepad, or Scrapbook -- applications familiar to users of Mac OS9). Also, it allows the user to edit text via AppleScript or by means of regular expressions.

Features

1. Simplicity
The most important feature of MacNote3 is its simplicity. It can be used in a fairly intuitive way, and there is no need to pay any attention to its file structure, or worry about saving data. New data is saved automatically and in a manner compatible with unhindered use. I hope that, for purchasers, MacNote3 will always be the stationery of first recourse.

2. Link
The user is able in any MacNote3 page, to install links to URLs, Files, other pages of MacNote3 and messages in Mail.app. Thus, pages can serve as an application launcher or a bookmark. In OSX 10.4 or higher, it is possible also to make a link to a message in Mail.app, so it's easy to organize a To-Do page.

3. Multi-Window and Tab
MacNote3 allows the opening of multiple windows. In addition, multiple pages can be opened, via a tab, in one window.

4. Increment Search
MacNote3 provides a swift incremental search. The user can quickly locate a needed page, even though it may be hidden among many others. MacNote3 also provides a list of "Frequently-used pages" and "Recently-used pages", so the user is free to store as many pages as required.

5. AppleScript
MacNote3 is AppleScript compatible. Text data from MacNote3 can be transferred to another application via AppleScript. For example: templates for creating mail messages may be stored in MacNote3, and by employing AppleScript, new email messages can be created from these templates. Or, by means of AppleScript, lyrics from iTunes can be imported into a newly-created page.
AppleScript can edit text of MacNote3 too, so it's easy to insert HTML tags and so on. Of course you can write a new script and expand the ability of MacNote3 by yourself.

6. Iconize
If the user so desires, MacNote3 windows can be made to appear as tiny icons, and thus can be displayed separately on the desktop. In this mode a MacNote3 window is unobtrusive, yet allows the convenient entering of new data.

7. Export to iPod
It's easy to export page data to an iPod, and therefore memos can be read on an iPod. MacNote3 can export its page data to any kind of iPod - from the oldest models to the most recent touch iPod or iPhone (with the exception of shuffle). If memos are edited when using an iPod touch or iPhone, MacNote3 automatically imports the new data when the appliance is synced.

8. Compatible with other standard services of Mac OSX
MacNote3 is compatible with other services that apply in Mac OSX. A new page can be created via the "Service" menu of another application; a page in MacNote3 can be opened via Spotlight; a page previewed via QuickLook, and so on.

MacNote3 ReviewBest Notepad for me - Version: 1.2, 4/16/2008 03:26PM PST

I have continually monitored notepads over the past year and tried out most of them. I've settled on this one due to its superior search capability (3 different modes from local to global--I use global mostly), responsive user support (I've made about 10 requests in the past 2 months and ALL of my feature requests have been added), and its encryption capability (can protect individual notes). It has all the standard formatting features plus it is the only notepad I have found that includes highlighting capability (one of my feature requests). Also, no problem copy/pasting or dragging images into the notes.

I also like the fact that the program remembers all of my setting each time I launch it: ruler, window placement, etc. In a number of other notepads I would have to reset these things every time I open them.

Finally, it has nice import capability, allowing one to drag and drop collections of rtfd note files that can be exported from other notepad programs.

While the author may be Japanese, his English seems to be as good as mine. I've found no grammatical mistakes whatsover by him during extensive emailing back and forth about feature requests. The English documentation is excellent.

MacNote3 ReviewMacNote 3? Very good now - Version: 1.1, 2/3/2008 12:00AM PST

I've been using MacNote 3 for several months now and I find it quite useful, stable, easy to learn and easy to use. I recommend people download it and try it out for the 30-day period.

The current downloads, by the way, include manuals in both Japanese and English, so the language problem no longer gets in the way. Well, except when you visit the web site, which is still pretty much in Japanese. But given how well the app works, this shouldn't be necessary anyway.

At $15 I think it's a bargain!
