This is a simlilar in appearance to the familiar SimpleText
application. The main difference is that FinderNote 2 opens, edits &
creates Finder Desktop Text Clipping files and it does it rather well.

> FinderNote is a simple text editor whose documents can be read in
> the Finder (on the Desktop) without needing to run any application.
> This means that these notes open up as quickly as any other Finder
> window. This is possible because a FinderNote document is a
> particular type of file that Apple call a 'clipping'.
>
> Clippings are very handy for keeping memos, to-do lists, notes about
> other files or folders, 'boilerplate' text (like letterheads) that
> you can insert into other documents - the list is almost endless.

FinderNote 2.0 is Freeware. This Download is an 800k Disk Copy 4.2
floppy image file that has been archived using Stuffit 3.6 before
uploading. Use Stuffit 3.5 or newer to extract.

Compatibility
Architecture: 68k PPC

FinderNote is FAT binary, it runs natively on both 68k and on PowerPC
Macintosh. It also runs in Basilisk II and SheepShaver.

The included FinderNote Extension is an optional install and required
only if you wish to enable "hot-keys" to be used with the FinderNote
application. This Extension enables double-click opening of clipping
files while holding down a specified Hot Opening Key (one or more of
the modifier keys: Option, Command or Control).

[Note] The additional optional extension appears to be broken in Mac
OS 9.1 and later. It does not affect the operation of the FinderNote
application, if the extension is not used in Mac OS 9.x (dragging
clipping files onto FinderNote's icon to open them, works fine in
9.x).
