If you love this addon and want expedited and prolonged work on it, please donate! <3

Simple, light-weight framework for adding notes to items. User-editable notes and Item Level display are builtin.

To see an example of how to write your own plugin, see ItemLevel.lua and ItemLevel.xml. Of course, you'll write it as a separate addon..

You can now set a hotkey to edit notes. You can set it in the Key Bindings section under Item Notes.

There's a GUI now so you don't have to use the command line (though you still can). You can find it in the Interface->AddOns options, or by typing /ins

The interface should be pretty natural. You can use the up and down arrows on the right to change the order of the notes and the eye to show/hide. Click the name or colour (or anywhere on the line that's not a button) to select that note type, at which point you may select a colour for it with the colour wheel.

Item Notes can now be localized! There's really not many strings, though. If anyone wants to submit a translation, you can do so in the localization section on Item Notes's Curseforge page. You can find the current strings in locale.lua as well.
