No change in UI or functionality.
Just fixed a one-line bug when creating a note on N900 with non-ASCII characters in the title (thanks Oleg)...


"brown bag" update - a stupid typo made it impossible to start the app for the very first time (when the notes database was empty). Insufficient testing on my part, sorry. Hope this one goes better...

There are also two minor changes in the UI :

- changed the label for the check box in "New note" from "Date prefix" to "Add date"
(forgot to update it after I added the option to append it :-)

- went back to "standard" scrolling method for the notes list, the fancy one was more trouble that it's worth...


After a short beta period by some bold users in this thread, here is a more formal announcement and a more functional 1.0 version of SnXM, a Simplenote client for the N900... and hopefully for future models up to 990, hence the "XM" instead of "CM" :-)

Simplenote is a web service that lets you jot down quick text notes and access them from anywhere : the web site, Firefox or Chrome extensions, and a number of client apps for Windows, MacOS, iPhone, Android, PalmOS... and now Maemo5.

It is similar in concept to Evernote, except it handles only "plain text", and is therefore much lighter and faster. On the N900 it can also be used completely offline.

From the README.TXT :

Written in Python for the Qt UI framework (PyQt)

This version targets the Simplenote 1.0 API.

The site uses a newer, backward-compatible API as of August, 2010, The 2.0 API reference was published at the end of September, too late to be implemented in this version. It will be in the next.

Thus newer features (such as tags and revisions) are not supported yet. However, tags may be added to notes' title and/or body and searched.

The app is very simple by design, and presents the following screens with their keyboard shortcuts and menu items, shown in the posts below.

Enjoy,
