       Enter a message and choose the [OK] button.
   (2) Toggle between display memo, display frames, hide memo modes.
       If memos are distracting you, hide them.
   (3) To change icon bar's position, choose this button (button with word
       "Next". Icon bar will move rotate counter-clockwise to each corner
       of the screen.

       Order of aligned memos can be changed by pressing the left mouse
       button on the memo to be moved and dragging it up or down the list.
       When unaligned, memos can be dragged anywhere on the screen.
       Line Spacing between memos when they are aligned may be specified
       by setting the following lines to the MEMO.INI file in the WINDOWS
       directory.

       with a foot).
       Programs must be entered in MEMO.INI file in the WINDOWS directory.
    (a) Use a text editor (such as NotePad in Accessories) to edit the
        MEMO.INI file.
    (b) Search for [AddCmd]. If it does not exist, add this row. 
    (c) Enter commands in the following format:
		CmdName?=Name to appear in the poplist list

       button to delete it.
   (2) To change text and color, execute the KAZUSET.EXE file. It is
       recommended        that this file be defined to be executable from
       the "foot" button (see section 1.5 above).
   (3) To display a bell mark to a memo on a set date, insert a date before
       a memo text.  A date must have one of the following format:
	 - YY/MM/DD	Always specify dates as 2 digits
	 - MM/DD	If a current year is to be used, year can be omitted.
 	e.g. 95/12/24 Christmas eve
       WARNING: Validity of dates are not checked.  Invalid dates are
	        treated as part of a text.

       WINDOWS directory.  Search for [Environ].  If it does not exist, add
       a new line.  Add or change the following lines.
	ButtonWidth=x	x=width of buttons in dots
	ButtonHight=y	y=height of buttons in dots

       Notepad icon, select the [Display only on icon].

Warnings *******************************************************************
  1. Only 50 memo's can be created.  If a memo list extends pass your
      screen, you will not be able to see it.
  2. Location of icon bar may change when Kazuhiro's Notepad is selected
     from a Task Manager.
  3. If a memo is dragged too quickly, it might not behave properly.
  4. Some buttons on a icon bar may not be properly displayed when another
     icon is displayed on or underneath it.

Afterthoughts **************************************************************
  There are many functions I think are still necessary to Kazuhiro's Notepad,
but I don't have too much time.  I plan to add the following features in
V2.00:
  1. Capability to change font and text size
  2. Multiple row text
  3. Add color to a memo
I'll try my best so don't give up on me yet!

  I want to express my gratitude to Momonga for developing KAZUSET.EXE,
which allow text color to be changed.
