Notenik 9.3.0 - Cool New Functions

Posted on 10 May, 2022

This latest version of Notenik includes a couple of significant new functions that you might find useful, along with some nice enhancements to existing functionality.

Populate an App Catalog for your Mac

The second new function can be found beneath the File menu, and is called Populate App Catalog. You can point this function at your local Applications folder on your Mac, and it will then extract information about all the apps found therein, and use that info to populate your frontmost Collection with information about your apps. This is not something that will appeal to everyone, but it is a way of maintaining a user-editable, taggable, searchable, info repository about the applications that you use on your Mac.

Import a Folder of Text Files

Also included is a new Import option that will allow you to import a folder full of existing text files in just about any format. (You could import one at a time previously, or drag and drop a bunch onto the List tab, but this new Import option may be easier to use in some cases.)

Improved Status Field Editing

Version 8.5.0 opened up the Status field to allow input that did not match any of the preset values, but also left a few problems behind. The Status field now combines the best of both worlds, allowing easy selection from a list of tailorable presets, or from any free-form status values encountered within the open Collection.

Additional Info

And that rounds out the set of changes in this latest release. As always, if you have something on your Notenik wish list that is still not there, feel free to drop me a line and let me know how you think my little app can be further improved. I’m always happy to entertain suggestions from users.
