It has a very simple look and feel and a very intuitive interface, and is distributed under the GNU GPL version 3.

they would like it to be shown on screen.

at the top right corner. Clicking the hide button only hides
the note but does not delete the note's contents forever.
To bring back a hidden note back in to view, one has to
un-hide from the notes list. The notes list can be
opened by selecting the appropriate menu item from the
system tray icon's or the Notes icon's right click menu.

3. Keyboard shortcuts Ctrl-N to create a new note, Ctrl-P to
print the note, Ctrl-W to hide the note are now active.

selecting the appropriate menu item from the system tray
icon's or the Notes icon's right click menu.

selecting the appropriate menu item from the
note-caption's right click menu.
