Will KeyNote ever be able to display alarms, reminders or to-do lists?
Maybe. I realize that it would be an extremely useful addition: a new kind of note which would store and display a list of to-do items, alarms, periodic reminders, etc. I am seriously considering something like this for version 2.0 of KeyNote. However, this type of functionality raises a terribly difficult design problem, if the alarms were to be stored inside KeyNote files. When you use a reminder program, you expect to rely on it; once you enter an alarm or a to-do item, you expect that the program will display an appropriate alarm or show a message when necessary. The program must not fail to do so. But if you had your reminders stored in a .KNT file, they would only be active as long as that particular .KNT file was opened in KeyNote. The moment you opened a different .KNT file, the reminders would not be working anymore, which makes the whole function useless. Perhaps most users typically work with a single file only; but KeyNote was designed to allow you to create many .KNT files
