SuperList Pro

A multi-level checklist/outliner program for the Pocket PC

Overview

SuperList Pro is a multi-level checklist program that allows you to quickly and efficiently create a list of items and sub-items either directly on the application screen or by importing simple list text files. The ability to create branches and sub-branches gives you the flexibility to group similar items in a list. Items can also be moved around by doing a simple drag-n-drop procedure directly on the screen.

In addition, if you’re looking for a general outliner application, SuperList Pro allows you to turn off the display of the checkboxes while still maintaining the hierarchical tree branch structure.

Text colors for the different level of items, branch node icons, display attributes, etc. are all customizable for each individual list you create. With SuperList Pro, you can easily switch between the different lists in your main database, and you can also password-protect certain lists for security purposes (encrypted using strong Blowfish encryption scheme).

Version 2.4

Text notes can be created and attached to each list item, and displayed in a small window at the bottom of the screen if desired. Also, SuperList Pro has a Search option which will find a specified substring in the list and automatically scroll the list to display it (a very helpful option if you have a very long list!).

SuperList Pro background images

One of SuperList Pro’s most unique features, is the ability to “skin” or define a custom background image for the application. Standard BMP and JPG image files can be used as background images as shown in the figures below:
