Notes Disappeared

Hmmm...I recently identified a bug whereby if you change a note (including opening/closing/moving it), and you shut down your PC before Memento has a chance to save it (it autosaves every minute), *AND* there was a problem saving the notes (it couldn't write the file, etc) then this can happen - your notes file gets corrupted (in my case, it actually got filled with zeros, but was the correct size).

I'm working on a fix and hope to release something soon. I'd recomend backing up the notes file regularly to avoid this until then. It doesn't happen often (I've seen it once* in 2 years of use on two machines, and had about 3 or 4 people report something similar happening) but it's better to be safe than sorry of course.

Sorry about that.

* This was following a reboot caused by installing a Windows critical update, so I have my suspicions...
