==============================================================================
Running
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Portable version: Start cintanotes.exe from its home folder. Complete usage
instructions are available in the help file, which can be opened using the
"Help / Help" menu command.
Installable version: Run using the created start menu shortcut.
Upgrading
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Portable version: Extract all files from the folder inside of the downloaded
archive into your current CintaNotes folder, overwriting old files.
Your notebook and settings won't be overwritten.
Installable version: run the installer and point it to your current

CintaNotes folder.
Upgrading from CintaNotes Beta to CintaNotes 1.X is a bit more difficult

because CintaNotes 1.3 dropped support for the Beta .dat file format.
You need to export your notes to an XML file first, and after installation
of the latest version re-import it using the "File/Import" command.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
User files are located in the CintaNotes folder by default.

However, in case CintaNotes folder is located in the "Program Files" or
"Program Files (x86)" folder, then the files are moved to the CintaNotes
subfolder of the %APPDATA% folder.
