My first application. message count & reminder

I'm going to write my first app.

It will be a today app, which will display the unread messages for each message store and have custom alert reminders for each.

It will be using the minimum amount of Today space as possible. Probably just 1 line of text.


Yes, I know there are about a dozen apps that do this, I'm more interested in it as a programming exercise.

It should be pretty simple as there is a reg key that keeps the unread msg count for each store... add a few timers for delays on the reminder. a form to allow the configuration of the options, and reg reads/writes to store the data.


Suggestions for features are always welcome... In fact, there are a few wanna-be developers here that might like to make a contest out of this.



If there are, let us make a few rules for the contest if anyone cares to participate. (i'll follow these rules regardless)

1) must be freeware, without expirations
2) no nag screens, but can have the developers name/website displayed somewhere unbtrusively (like on the options page)
3) the contest, such as it is, would be decided by public opinion poll.
4) source code will be freely available (so the other developers can be amazed by our cleverness), which is the most important aspect of this

Any other suggestions for either the app or the contest? feel free...

Well, I can't program (and, as you know, I am not very competitive ) but I do want to wish you luck with your venture. :approve:

Who knows, I may even beta test it for you
