Memo

Add notes to bookmarks and keep code and instructions

Add your reason for saving a URL or your next task, then find it later by the words in your note. Keep code or script text in Memo with its purpose and cautions. You can also create note-only cards, to-dos and instructions with related buttons. This guide includes Desktop examples and steps to save and copy code blocks in the Web app.

What you can do with Memo

  • Write procedures and notes
  • Format for readability with headings, dividers, quotes, code, and more
  • Insert an existing button
  • Create a new button on the spot and insert it

Add a short note to a bookmark and find it later

Write why you saved a URL or what to do next in its Memo. Try this Desktop example by saving one link to the backup instructions.

ItemExample entry
LabelBackup instructions
URLhttps://linkjumkey.matsumotojoho.com/guide/print-import-export.html
MemoRead before month-end work. Check where the exported JSON is saved.
  1. Open the destination project, choose + Button > Open as is, enter the example above, and press Save.
  2. Back in the list, the Memo appears below the Label. To update it, click the Memo, edit it, and press Save.
  3. Enter month-end in the search input at the top and press the magnifying glass (🔍). This button appears even though month-end is absent from its Label and URL.

This example searches the Memo saved in LinkJumkey. A short note about why you saved a page helps you find it even if you forget its title.

Add the page you are viewing in Chrome (requires Desktop on the same PC)

Choose and save text and related links from an AI answer

Use Desktop to save selected text from an external AI answer in Memo. This does not automatically import the entire conversation history.

  1. Copy the text you want to keep from the AI answer. In LinkJumkey, open the destination project and press + Button.
  2. Set the Label to AI research notes and leave URL empty. Paste the text into Memo, such as the conclusion and what you need to check next.
  3. To keep a related link too, select its position in the text, open the formatting tools with ✏️, and press Create new. Enter the Label and URL, then press Create and insert.
  4. Review the entire Memo and press Save. Later, open the Memo, switch to View, and press the embedded button to open the related page.
When copying preserves the links

If the copied text contains HTTP or HTTPS links in HTML format, pasting into Memo can turn those links into buttons. For plain text without link information, or an AI copy button that copies only text, add the links you need using the steps above. Newly created link buttons count toward cloud storage and sharing limits.

Save code and scripts in a note

Use Memo to keep code text with its purpose and notes. To save it as a button that runs on your PC, follow the steps for saving and editing script text.

This example records a short Python snippet in Desktop. Saving the Memo does not execute the code.

amounts = [1200, 800, 500]
total = sum(amounts)
print(total)
  1. At the destination, press + Button, set the Label to Sales total code, and leave URL empty.
  2. Paste the purpose and code into Memo. Select the code lines, open the formatting tools with ✏️, and press { } (Code).
  3. Press Save. Later, open the card's Memo to review or edit the text and code.

Use Insert existing to add buttons for related documentation URLs or code files stored on your PC to the text. How to register a code file

Save and copy code blocks in the Web app

Copy just the code, with the tabs, indentation and blank lines saved in the code block. On Desktop 1.9.0 or later and mobile 1.1.0 or later, open the Memo and choose Copy code.

  1. In the Web app, open the card's ⋯ menu and choose Edit. Paste code into Memo, select its lines, and press Code in the formatting toolbar.
  2. Press Save and reopen the card's Memo to review the stored code text.
  3. Expand the Memo's Copy code section, check each block's first line, and press the numbered button for the block you want. This section is available when viewing or editing a Memo that contains code.

Saving or copying code in Memo does not execute it.

Original files and checks before reuse

Memo stores code as formatted text. Copying an entire Memo normalizes leading or trailing whitespace and consecutive blank lines, so check indentation and line breaks before reuse. Manage original .py, .ps1, and other files on your PC. Registering a file button does not copy its contents into LinkJumkey.

Edit-mode basics

The formatting and insertion steps below are for Desktop. Select the Memo area below a card's label to edit it, or to add a Memo if it is empty. If the area is hidden, set Memo on button cards to 2 or 4 lines in Settings.

Switch between viewing and editing a Memo. Use the formatting toolbar while editing, then save and close. On Web and mobile, open editing from the ⋯ menu. Available formatting and insertion options differ by edition.

Common formatting Purpose
Bold / underline / color Highlight key terms and cautions.
Divider Clearly separate procedure paragraphs.
H2 Use as headings for a procedure guide.
Quote / code Show supplementary notes or command examples separately from the body.
☑ (ToDo) Turn each step into a checklist item.

Save a procedure as a checklist (Desktop)

  1. On Desktop, open a card’s Memo in edit mode and write “Check the documents” and “Review before submitting” on separate lines.
  2. Select those two lines, open the formatting tools with ✏️, and press ☑ (ToDo).
  3. In edit mode, click the checkbox at the start of a completed step, then press Save. If you are in view mode, switch to Edit before making changes.

Put buttons in Memo

01

Insert an existing button

Select the insertion point in the text, then choose a button with Insert existing in the formatting tools. Further selections are added after the preceding button. Move the text cursor first to insert elsewhere.

02

Create and insert

Choose Create new in the formatting tools, enter the Label and URL, then press Create and insert to add the button to the text.

03

Check the save location

Buttons created in a card's Memo are saved in a folder named after the card within its project. For a folder's Memo, they are saved inside that folder. Check Destination in the creation screen.

Practical uses

  • Write a case's startup procedure in Memo and line up the needed buttons below it
  • Leave a “press these in order” guide for newcomers, like a Welcome folder
  • Highlight only cautions and exception handling in a quote block
Separate the display name from the instructions Use Label for a short name, Title for a supporting heading, and Memo for longer instructions and notes so they are easier to find.
