Alexander has recently (this past June) released version 2.2 of TuxCards, which is written against Qt 4. It’s very slick, and certainly a welcome upgrade to the program, now that Qt 3 is ancient history.

I tried this tool years ago and liked it, but as far as I know the latest version is from 2004. Already then I thought it could need some work at the interface and some new features. as the packages are made for older linux-versions I am not even sure if they work fine with actual distributions..

If you like this app, you also might like to check out ‘treeline’. It’s got some special features like the ability to create custom data types.

I am glad someone else realises the power of OneNote one of the most underplayed Windows Office products. I had version 2007 and it really was a useful filing method for just about every document on my computer.

The one Microsoft product I really like is OneNote. The key features for me are:

1. full text search across all notes.
2. paste screen clipping (e.g. dialog boxes to remember how you configured something.) into note
3. link from a note to an anchor within another note

Tomboy doesn’t support screen clippings.

BasKet Notes does most of the above, but it’s pretty clunky.

Doesn’t look like TuxCards does screen clippings. Also looks like the project is DEAD. Last release 2004?

Since the stuff I take notes on at home overlaps my work notes, it really makes sense to just have one notebook. I think the solution for me is:

* Install a vpn client so I can mount the folder at work where the OneNote notebook lives.
* Get OneNote running under Wine for use at home.
