-cnotes v0.1.1 for DOS
-=====================
-
-A simple command-line note-taking system
-Built with Turbo C++ 3.0 (large memory model)
-
-WHAT IS THIS?
-------------
-cnotes lets you quickly add, view, search, count, and archive short notes
-from the DOS prompt. Notes are saved in plain cnotes.csv in your notes
-directory (usually current directory on DOS).
-
-COMMANDS INCLUDED
------------------
-CNADD    - Add a new note
-CNDUMP   - Show all notes in a table
-CNCOUNT  - Show statistics (total, by category, by date)
-CNDEL    - Archive (move) notes to cnotes.arc
-CNFIND   - Search notes by text/category/date
-CNHELP   - Show this help overview
-
-INSTALLATION
-------------
-1. Unzip all files to any directory (e.g. C:\TEMP)
-2. Run INSTALL.BAT from that directory
-3. Follow the on-screen prompts
-
-After installation:
-- Best: add C:\CNOTES to your PATH
-  SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\CNOTES
-  (put this line in C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT to make it permanent)
-- Or run commands with full path: C:\CNOTES\CNADD "Test note"
-
-QUICK START
------------
-CNADD "Remember to call Bob"
-CNADD -c Work "Meeting 3pm tomorrow"
-
-CNDUMP          - view all notes
-CNHELP          - full command help
-CNHELP cnadd    - help for one command
-
-NOTES LOCATION
---------------
-By default: current directory (cnotes.csv and cnotes.arc)
-Override with environment variable:
-  SET CNOTES_PATH=C:\MYNOTES
-
-Have fun logging notes the retro way!
