Data is arranged in a "tree" structure, just like that of the hard drive. Text can be entered into each branch of the tree, and copied to the clipboard with a simple double-click. This makes Scratchboard perfect for quickly filling out forms.

In addition to an arsenal of text editing tools, Scratchboard supports global search and replace, bookmarking, macros, spell checking, encryption, password protection, a skinnable interface, XML import/export, and much more. It's time to stop using scraps of paper. It's time to get organized with Scratchboard!

Here are some key features of "Scratchboard":

· The tree data is saved in a compact "project" file. There is no limit on the number of projects.
· For privacy, project files can be encrypted and password protected.
· The "tree" has a complete set of editing tools: cut, copy, paste, rename, alphabetize, and much more.
· The text editor contains a full set of tools: calendar, calculator, character map, clipboard manipulation, macros, printing, search/replace, and much more.
· Branch text can easily be copied to the clipboard by double clicking on the tree. You can even make Scratchboard switch back to the previous application after a double click - very useful for filling out forms.
· Bookmarks allow you to quickly navigate to frequently used branches of the tree.
· Supports text searches and search and replace operations on the entire tree, just one leaf, or just on branch names.
· Supports spell checking of a single branch or of the entire tree.
· Supports "drag & drop" of text and tree branches.
· A powerful export tool can convert the project into a text file. The format of the export file is highly configurable.
· Supports printing of the tree and leaf, including print-preview.
· Suports XML export/import.
· The user interface is "skinnable".
