Proprietary software
„Hot Notes is a fully functioning, time-unlimited free trial, with the occasional message to buy a license for continued use.
You can purchase a license by clicking the About Hot Notes menu item in the app.“
(license.md should include the licenses for Ghostty and fzy - both MIT. Not sure that bundling their licenses in a file within Contents/Resources/ is sufficient.)
- The app takes 40MB disk space, and around 80MB RAM. So quite light.
- Ghostty is fast, and is needed to render the search result list quickly. It is much lighter than a whole browser engine (Electron apps).
- I wanted a single "drag and drop" install method for all skill levels.
- The app needs its own windows and bundle ID so that the global keyboard shortcut can focus the Hot Notes window without interacting with your other terminal windows.
