TabPad  1.5
             
A tabbed notepad with quick-key tool buttons for fast and easy note taking.

Palm™ handheld owners can now use TabPad as a desktop companion for the built-in Memo Pad application.
Major Features
quick-keys:  designed for those who prefer using shortcut keys over the mouse - all tool buttons have an Alt key shortcut (quick-key), making font formatting and bulleting a snap.  You do not have to access help to determine what the shortcut keys are.
editing tools:  time saving tool buttons include;  UPPERCASE, lowercase, proper case, CLEAR (clear font formatting), and  TEXT (paste the contents of the clipboard as raw text).    
insert Date/Time:  insert the date and/or time using the DATE button.  Customize the format in which the date/time is to be inserted, including the ability to add a prefix, leading or trailing spaces, etc.
instant access to each page:  change pages (tabs) at any time using a shortcut;  simply use Ctrl+Shift plus the first letter of the page you want to change to.  Alternatively, you can press F6 (set focus to the tabs), then press the first letter of the page you want to change to.
hot key:  assign a hot key to recall (activate) TabPad.  You also have the option of using the same hot key to minimize TabPad  (if TabPad is already the active window).  Also, you can assign a different hot key to recall each of your TabPad notepads. New in version 1.5
font formatting:  each page is in Rich Text Format (RTF), allowing you to change font size, color, bold, italic, underline, strikeout, and insert bullets.
compatibility:  pages are saved as individual RTF files in a folder on your hard drive, and can be opened using WordPad or any other word processor that supports the RTF standard.
printing:  print Selection/Page/All Pages directly to the printer, or generate the RTF text to open in your word processor.
auto-save:  TabPad's auto-save feature saves changes whenever focus is lost (whenever you switch to another application). New in version 1.5
customize:  TabPad can be customized by changing tool button colors, changing the document area color, hiding the menu, etc.
multiple notepads:  organize notes into as many notepads as you need.  All notepads can be kept in a desktop folder, directly on the desktop, or on the Start menu.  Options and settings for each notepad are saved separately, allowing you to give each notepad a different look and function.
export to a file:  export the raw text (with bullets) of each notepad to a CSV (Comma Separated Values) text file.  Export files can be updated automatically each time you exit TabPad. New in version 1.5
specifications:  each notepad can contain up to 255 tabbed pages.  Each RTF page has practically no limit on the amount of formatted text that can be stored.
OS support:  TabPad runs on Windows® 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP operating systems.
Possible Uses
Use TabPad to store notes, and lists, including research notes, project notes, to-do lists, trip check lists, ideas, goals, music to try, books to read, recipes, etc.
TabPad is ideal for saving text from web pages - you can paste raw text (formatting removed) using the TEXT tool button.

Palm™ handheld owners can use TabPad as a desktop companion for the built-in Memo Pad application.
