Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

First, good to hear that it works for you :)
Second, hiding the toolbar is already on my list, I'm not really sure when I'll do it, as it first requires some reorganization of the UI code and I hate UI code :) But I'll try getting it into 0.4 or 0.5.

Support for different foreground/background colors should be very simple. The only problem here is that I have to implement some options page to select the colors. I'll put it on the list :)

Thanks for the feedback!

Conboy 0.3.2 Released
 

Hi,

I just released version 0.3.2 of Conboy. It's now also available for Fremantle and contains some small bug fixes.

News:
* Builds and runs on Fremantle Beta SDK
* When removing the package, the icon in the menu is removed too
* Fixed bug, where the formatting of the first line was wrong
* Fixed bug, where formatting was wrong after formatting several list items

Enjoy!
Conny

This is quickly shaping up to be a superior replacement for Maemopad+ (provided one doesn't need sketch notes), thanks.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

There seems to be a problem with the Diablo autobuilder. For Diablo the version is still 0.3.1 only Chinook and Fremantle have 0.3.2.
I´ll post as soon as the problem is fixed....

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

The problem has been solved, so now 0.3.2 really is available in extras for Diablo.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

Tomboy homepage mentions
search and
link tools.

Unless I'm missing something - -,
I hope they will come to Conboy !

(Notecase has them, but is a bit complicated for note taking.)
(Quicknote has only search.)

The idea of combining the functionality of
Conboy and
Quick Clip
sounds good, unless the simplicity of using the apps is lost.

Conboy will be great,
especially if it can sync between computers (e.g. main<>NIT).

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

Linking is already possible, just mark a word or phrase and press the link button (the arrow icon on the toolbar). In the current version I'm working on automatic linking. It works like a simple wiki - if you type a word or phrase which is the title of a note, it is automatically converted into a link.
Searching is on the my list too...

This was just an idea, I'm not really sure if I'll ever do it or not. We'll see :)

Thank you! Sync is very important for me too. I'll have a look at it as soon as the normal editing/viewing things are completed.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

Was anyone aware that this existed? http://www.mono-project.com/Maemo They have done a port of Tomboy to Maemo already. I just tried it but it runs a bit slow. I didn't know if this would be of any interest or help to you Conny. Thanks for all the work you've put into conboy thus far. I've found it to be very useful.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

I´m aware of the mono based version, but thanks for the pointer :)
There have been several reasons why I decided to reimplement/port it to C, one of them is speed. Others are hildonization, integration and the problem of getting mono compiled by the autobuilder. Also personally I wanted to refresh my C skills ;)
Most of this was discussed in this thread on the Tomboy mailing list.

Conboy 0.4.1 Released
 

Hello Again!

I just uploaded version 0.4.1 to the autobuilder. It should be available in extras-devel soon.

New in this version:

• Added automatic linking to existing notes while typing
• Added new window for searching and selecting notes
• Bugfix: After pressing enter inside a bullet list, scroll to make cursor visible
• Bugfix: Should install in Fremantle now

Opening the new search window the first time is really slow. It takes around 5 seconds with ~70 notes. I will improve this as soon as I find some time. Also for now it only searches the titles not the full text. Full text search is planned, though.

Please report problems on the forum or directly file bug reports on garage.

Also I would have some jobs if someone is interested :D

• Create small website on http://conboy.garage.maemo.org
• Design an icon
• Do some coding

Well, for the last point, I probably have to do some code cleaning first, but still - help is always welcome :)

So long! Enjoy!

EDIT:
I just promoted it to extras so it should be there within the hour :)
Also I attached two screenshots of the new search UI.
That the buttons reads "Leeren" is because of my german local settings. In English it should be "Clear". I18n is coming soon - hopefully...
