Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 
I just uploaded a new -devel version to the autobuilder. The changes are:
- Updated Midgard-Plugin
- New About Dialog
- Improved bullet list editing

I'm hoping that it is no longer possible to create invalid bullet list structures with this code. Hopefully this will help with the sometimes corrupted notes. The sync code did not change since the last -devel release.

How are plans going, if at all, to get Conboy to "share via service," e.g. Evernote?

Well, to share via service, we first need to convert the notes into something the services can understand. Probably XHTML would make sense and it shouldn't be very difficult as the notes are stored in XML that is already quite similar to XHTML already.

Still, someone needs to do it. Volunteers?

Hi. Great app, but it would be of MUCH more use to me if I was possible to select different system fonts (serif, new times, sans, etc.), and various font sizes (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, etc.) to make the best use of screen real estate for editing simple documents. Any chance of such a feature in conboy?

Maybe I'm missing something, but how do I easily get a Conboy file onto my PC for editing?

I won't add this, sorry. However, you can use the zoom/volume hardware buttons to change the general text size. Not sure that will help you, though.

The notes are stored in /home/user/.conboy. They are named *.note, but are plain XML, so you can edit them with a simple text editor. Use, for example, scp to copy them to your PC.

That's actually pretty decent (can't believe i didn't think too try it, lol). Thanks.

Excuse the ignorance, but that appears to require copying via xTerm, using the SCprotocol - just to get a note over to a PC? I was hoping for an "easy" way, like drag and drop or something. No?

Well, you replied to my message regarding XML/XHTML conversion. Because of this I thought you might be interested in coding and if you're interested in this, xterm is the way to go :)

It looks like I misunderstood you. So what exactly do you want to achieve?
