Big Notes v1.01
____________________________________________________
copyright 1995 Ben Gottlieb and Stand Alone Software

Big Notes is a hack for the built in Note Pad application. It will allow notes up
to 8 times bigger than the built in software (up to 32k.) You will not see any
change in the behavior of the note pad, other than you will not be bugged by
those annoying "The current note is too large. To start a new note, draw a line
across the note pad." messages. If a note gets too big (near the current free
heap of the Newton) it will start to slow down. The best policy is to always keep
your note to at most 1/2 of the current free heap, and probably 1/3. To find your
current note size, tap the 'i' button at it's top. To get the current heap, try
using something like ICS's SleepAid (a very cool app, I gotta say.)

Also included in this archive is a copy of Ben's Register, a program that will
let you register my software with just a password. When you register, I will send
you a password. Enter that into the Ben's Register screen, select the app you
registered from the picker at the top of the screen, and tap "Register". The app
will no longer put up those pesky "Please Register" notices, and will start
working again! :-)

	point. (shareware)
