A layered take on a notes app for...well, anything, really. Ever a work in progress, but currently it features:

• Layers! 3 of them. There will never be any more or less.
• Easily reorderable lines of text!
• Pin notes to the top, or the bottom! They respect creation order (new notes are in front of older notes), but the pins should be helpful anyways.

===CONTROLS===

• Double-click with the left mouse button to create a note.
• Drag things with the left mouse button.
• Use Up/Down Arrows to change lines in a note quickly, and hold Alt while doing so to move the current line around within its note.
• Change layers with the scroll wheel.
• There is a menu on the top left.
• Right click to pin notes, or un-pin them
• Ctrl+W or Ctrl+Q both immediately close the board, without saving it. Alt+F4 also works if desired.

• There is no undo button.

================

Future advancements planned include:

• (deciding if autosave is important, it might not be)
• user preferences (changing default interaction types, making the autoload check actually mean something), more hotkeys?
• make file saving and loading a file dialog so it respects multiple of them existing
• image embedding, ideally? (there are whispers of general media embeds as well, down the line...)
• clipboard-based note creation (text and images and anything valid).
• mobile???? i want to put this on my phone eventually. might need to swap renderers for building that.
• ??? like make it stick to the bottom of the screen like a widget even in tiling WMs (i don't know how to accomplish this but i want it to be a thing so it's easily available everywhere)

*code is hosted at https://git.gay/crescentMoon/dovecote, should you be curious.

**i do not have a windows pc that i use as of the death of windows 10, but i am building it with default settings because it should work. i have never owned a mac device, but i can build it on request if someone asks. no guarantees either way as i am not testing those myself, but it's pretty OS-agnostic so far.
