Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

Yes i know, but i use it with production note, but this one are automatically backup before any sync on all devices.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

I did a search for an "undo" function, but didn't find anything. Is there one? Lets say I highlight a large portion of a note and then accidentally press the wrong key and erase it, is there any way to get it back?

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

As Conny says, the windows version of Tomboy reads Conboy with no conversion needed. Since each note is in its own file, sync seems to be simply a matter of synching the relevant folders. I'm using WinSCP (essential prog for any N900/windows user!) with SSH installed on the N900 to sync to XP over my wireless network.

Unfortunately I've not yet implemented undo. I would like to have it myself, though. Still, it's difficult and takes a lot of time, so I'm unsure whether I'll do it or not.

Ah, ok, thanks for the response.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

I was typing in a note when my N900 suffered one of its famous random reboots. When I started conboy again the note was not there anymore. Is there a way to recover the note or is it gone for good?

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

I have a similar question. Conboy crashed while I was working on a doc (in diablo/n810) . It appears to have autosaved the doc and restored it to the way it looked 40-50 min before the crash occurred. Does conboy autosave notes at certain intervals? If so, what are those intervals and can they be altered in any way?

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

@etuoyo: You can look inside the folder /home/user/.conboy and see if you can find your note there. However, if Conboy does not pick it up, it´s very unlikely that you find something there.

@Echohead: Notes are automatically saved after 4 seconds of inactivity, when closing Conboy and when switching to another note.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
 

hm, weird. I definitely lost about 40min worth of work and there had to've been a 4-sec interval in there somewhere. Perhaps not, perhaps I'm just that productive lol Thanks.

What desktop OS are you using?
Win7

You need to copy the .note files into a directory Tomboy knows about. The directories are listed here: http://live.gnome.org/Tomboy/Directories
Also you should activate the "Note Directory Watcher" add-in in Tomboy. This plugin automatically loads new notes once they have been placed into the right directory.

Tomboy has a sync feature that lets you sync with any folder. I don't see "Note Directory Watcher" anywhere.

You can read and write the .note files comfortably using Tomboy, GNote or Conboy. Using one of those application you'll have a note editing user interface. The other way to edit them is by using a text editor. You'll then have to edit the raw XML, which is probably not what you want.

Haven't tried GNote yet. Prefer not to have to edit raw XML.

Did you try the latest -devel version? It offers synchronization between Conboy <-> Ubuntu One <-> Tomboy. Maybe that's what you're looking for?

Still prefer something more direct, i.e., rather not install Ubuntu just for this.

Or do you really just want an RTF, HTML representation of your note? What is your use case?

RTF would be ideal. Any chance...?
