+EditNote
+========
+
+Attach a note to any type of item, or edit an already existing note.
+This feature is useful if you do not have enough space to store all
+of your item description, or if you would like to add sub-tasks to an
+already existing todo item for example.
+Before pressing the 'n' key, you first need to highlight the item you
+want the note to be attached to. Then you will be driven to an
+external editor to edit your note. This editor is chosen the following
+way:
+ o if the 'VISUAL' environment variable is set, then this will be
+ the default editor to be called.
+ o if 'VISUAL' is not set, then the 'EDITOR' environment variable
+ will be used as the default editor.
+ o if none of the above environment variables is set, then
+ '/usr/bin/vi' will be used.
+
+Once the item note is edited and saved, quit your favorite editor.
+You will then go back to Calcurse, and the '>' sign will appear in front
+of the highlighted item, meaning there is a note attached to it. \ No newline at end of file
