takeamemo v0.3.0

take a memo

Install

npm i -g electron takeamemo

Usage

In a terminal, run takeamemo to start the app. You'll see a small microphone icon in the taskbar.

Global shortcut Cmd+':

• take a full desktop screenshot.
• record the microphone until you press Cmd+' again.

Files are saved in ~/.memos, so you can record notes on what you're doing and review or share with others later.

Every event has a corresponding .png and .mp3 filename, like:

.memos/
  2017-10-25-13-40-06.mp3
  2017-10-25-13-40-06.png

Clipboard

While recording is in progress, any text or images you copy into the clipboard will also be saved in your .memos directory.

This is useful in combination with Cmd+Shift+Ctrl+3 in macos (copy selected region to the clipboard) so you can highlight certain parts of the screen while you speak.

Development
