How does it work?

Pystickynote creates a small QT window for you to jot your ideas down and then display them later on all with a command line tool. On top of that, the note itself is fully customizable allowing you to change colors, alpha, and borders.

Installation

pip3 install pystickynote

Running It

<pystickynote/pysn> create <name_of_note> # Displays stickynote window

<pystickynote/pysn> open <name_of_note> # Displays old stickynote

<pystickynote/pysn> delete <name_of_note> # Deletes stickynote

<pystickynote/pysn> list # Displays all notes
