\"Journaley\"<\/p>\n

Journaley<\/a>\u00a0(version: 2.1) is a simple yet unusual journaling program, it is freeware and hosted on GitHub.<\/p>\n

The unusual nature of the program is two fold, perhaps. The first is somewhat disturbing,\u00a0the set up did not provide any prompts (tested on a Windows 10 64-bit computer) until the program shortcut was ready on the desktop, whether this is a bug or not is not clear and there is no mention of this behaviour on the developer’s GitHub<\/a> page. The second unusual aspect of the program\u00a0is that, at\u00a0first launch, it suggests the dropbox folder as the\u00a0location\u00a0to save its\u00a0database.<\/p>\n

Add an entry by clicking the blue + sign at the bottom left of the program, change the date, to any other date if necessary, and start typing. A word and character count is displayed as is the number of entries in th journal. Images can be added to an entry as can tags and stars. Starred entries will turn\u00a0yellow in the left pane view<\/p>\n

The entry, calendar and tag views (above the + sign) provide different glimpses of the journals written. When editing an existing entry the edit button must be clicked before the text becomes editable.<\/p>\n

The program settings include (only three) different sizes for the font and only two, Noto Sans or Noto Serif, as fonts. The included spellcheck can be disabled and a password assigned to protect the entries.<\/p>\n

The target user for such a software may or may not be obvious but it is nevertheless one newer addition\u00a0in the note keeping\u00a0category.\u00a0Journaley\u00a0requires .NET framework 4.5 and therefore works on Windows 7 and\u00a0newer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
