Any idea if this could be ported to the tablet (without much difficulty?).

http://rasm.ods.org/keepnote/

Currently for a multiplatform note editor I use notecase (has both a Linux, and Windows client as well as one for the Nokia Tablets). But it doesn't support links and images. Though from the intial look, it might be to feature heavy for the tablets' specs.

Haven't tried it... but it's written in python, so it shouldn't really need to be ported (except a desktop file)... Try installing the deb they have. Then, run /usr/bin/keepnote from the command line.

written in python? whats python?

Some dependencies might not be immediate to satisfy. Needs python > 2.4, python-central >0.6.7, debhelper > 5.0.38, cdbs > 0.4.49, python-gtk-2, python-glade2, libgtk2.0-dev.

Oops! Forgot to look at that. cdbs is in extras-devel, python-central should work from http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool...0.6.11_all.deb and the rest are in extras, I believe.

I just DL'd the tar, ran setup.py, and everything seems to be working. It insists on being run as root, though, I'll look into it.

BTW, how hard could it be to reparent the menu and fix the toolbar?

Those are Build-Deps, only needed to build it if you're making a deb. cdbs is PITA compared to normal rules files...

Python-central can be knocked off, it's a debian specific python packaging thing. Fremantle has it AFAIK, but on diablo, we're OK because we only have one python version... But you have to fix the rules file to remove the py_central references and optionally install the files in the correct place (as python-central is not being used).

In this case, reparenting isn't required. The gtk.ItemFactory it uses allows us to get a gtk.Menu instead of a gtk.MenuBar.

This works to get an Hildon menu:

Hmm, I just tried that and I keep getting errors:

Code:

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute <some_attribute>

It thinks that all the gtk.MenuItems are "NoneType", so they, obviously, keep throwing errors.

Did I do something wrong?

Was it applied properly?

Only error that I get is:

But I'm pretty sure I got that before. It works here:
