What's new since v0.3.0

• Unified Scale — one knob (50 / 75 / 100 / 125 / 150%, fine-tune with Ctrl+±) now scales the whole program: fonts, buttons, sidebar, pie menu. Every step is visually distinct and text never becomes unreadable — 2K/4K friendly
• Comprehensive help — click the ? button for every hotkey (including your own rebinds), mouse gesture, and feature
• Ctrl+E journaling flow — headers the line (# + bold + underline + timestamp), then drops the cursor onto a fresh • bullet two lines below; formatting no longer bleeds into what you type next
• Normal Window toggle fixed — reframes instantly instead of vanishing
• Pie menu hover is readable again; deeper undo coverage and persistence hardening throughout

Highlights

• Silos — up to 100 auto-saved scratchpads per project, with pin-to-top, recency color tints, per-silo line counters, and drag to reorder (drop onto a silo to swap)
• Snippets — named text blocks on F1–F10, per project tab (up to 5 projects)
• Archive — one click stores the current silo or snippet; everything undoable
• Deep undo — Ctrl+Z covers text and silo/snippet operations: clear, delete, move, pin, archive, even deleting a whole tab
• Markdown editor — live highlighting, clickable checkboxes & links, auto-bullets, --- divider lines (Ctrl+W), timestamped headers (Ctrl+E), zebra stripes, line numbers with margin marks
• Mouse-first UX — wheel pages silos/snippets/archive, wheel switches tabs, Ctrl+wheel walks silos or zooms text, hover buttons on silos
• Readable at every scale — 50–150% UI/button scaling with hard readability floors; 2K/4K friendly
• 6 vintage themes + full custom color editor, optional UI sounds & typewriter effect
• Local-first — SQLite next to the EXE, no cloud, no telemetry, no accounts

Quality

• 461 unit tests + 43 integration tests (the real app driven offscreen), including randomized fuzz tests holding structural invariants over thousands of operations
• Crashes are loud: error dialog + crash.log next to the EXE — never silent

Built with Python 3.11 + PyQt6, compiled with Nuitka (~26 MB).
