What is Chimp!?
----------------

* Post-It / Sticky note style memo pad for Windows 95 / NT4. 
* Internet enabled - store and launch URLs with a simple click 
  of the mouse. 
* Store file paths and launch applications via the file's own context 
  (right-click) menu. 
* Unobtrusive and easily accessible via an icon in the System Tray. 
* Multiple tabbed topics. 
* Saves automatically. 
* Complete with full Install/Uninstall programs. 
* Full printing capability. 
* Fully customisable. 

Chimp! provides a convenient place for keeping to-do lists, reminders
and miscellaneous information. Chimp!'s interface is based on the model
of a tabbed notebook - each file is divided up into a set of topics,
each of which is displayed as a tabbed page. By using this model, Chimp!
allows a large amount of information to be held and conveniently
accessed without the screen clutter associated with programs based on
the "sticky note" metaphor. In order to provide easy access to stored
information, Chimp! can add one or more icons to the SystemTray. When
Chimp!'s window is closed, the icon remains in the system tray.
Double-clicking this icon immediately restores the window, including the
currently selected topic, cursor position etc.

Chimp! does not require any action to ensure that any notes are saved -
Chimp! auto-saves whenever necessary. This allows you to treat Chimp!
just like a paper-based notepad: whenever a note has been edited, the
software takes charge of making sure that the modifications are saved,
you do not have to remember. Chimp! provides a comprehensive set of
editing features, printing support and customisation options such as
colours and fonts. It also allows files and URLs to be launched directly
from Chimp! simply by selecting the text corresponding to the path/URL
and right clicking.

Chimp! is shareware.

Chimp! may be freely distributed, subject to the terms in the file 
license.txt which accompanies the installation.
