  • Quick Actions: Double-click to bring a note to the front, toggle its open/closed state, spawn new notes, or permanently delete notes right from the manager.

⚑ Productivity & Shortcuts

  • Insert Timestamp: Quickly insert the current date and time (yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm) with a single click or shortcut.
