Noty is a small Notes taking applications.  Allows for small notes with formatting 
that can be organised in to a tree like structure and also uses internal hyper-links.

It can be found in SourceForge [http://noty.sourceforge.net/]

Allows you to write your notes with some formatting for "eye-candy" and allows you
to organise them in a "tree-like" structure.

It does have support to create hyperlinks between different notes.

Unfortunately it is not documented yet.

For TCL/TK developers it contains a ""rtext"" mega-widget that encapsulates all
the logic needed to edit text with formatting.  Also a simple add-on to it "ser.tcl"
allows it to serialise/de-serialse its contents.

Sample screenshots can be found here: [http://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=190974]

[SEH] 20070311 - Congratulations on a nice looking program.  I think the rtext widget is an excellent addition to the available set of Tk resources.  I suggest that you combine the rtext widget and the formatting buttons into a word-processing mega-widget that can be dropped whole into other applications, similar to the wordpad widget you see in some Delphi et al. applications, and the WYSIWYG editors seen in some advanced web apps.

michael - 2007-03-13 - its a .exe download. where's the version for other platforms?

Sorry, but I just downloaded and started "noty.exe" and got following error message about a hardcoded path:

 Error sourcing /Apps/UsbDisk/swdev/Noty/main.tcl: couldn't open "appdef.opt": no such file or directory

[ALL] This should be fixed now (2007-03-13).  My apologies as I made a mistake when I wrapped the application.

Thanks for the feedback.  I consciously decided to split the buttons from the rtext widget itself and opted
for having two widgets, the "Toolbar" and "rtext".  The intention is that they would "talk" to each other
as needed.  Similar to the model used by the scrollable widgets and toolbars.

Again, I have to disturb a bit.

I just downloaded the 1.0.1, started it, specified a "new" folder for the storage and noty started up. So far so good.

But adding a new node caused the tree to look a bit odd:

Before adding:

 \  _
  \|_| Home Node

After adding:

 [-]  _
 [-]-|_| Home Node
      \   _
       \ |_| New Node


Clicking at the new node to edit it, but that is not that easy since the text widget showed a very tiny font - perhabs 5pts high.
Using the "Return" key caused than noty to show an application error:

 can't read "cfg(style)": no such variable
 can't read "cfg(style)": no such variable
     while executing
 "regexp {^Hdr} $cfg(style)"
     (procedure "insertCB" line 4)
     invoked from within
 "insertCB .pw.bf.tx 1.18 {
 }"
     ("after" script)

Does this information help you?

Best regards,

Martin

I am at a loss, any help here will be appreciated.

I am unable to recreate your error on my system.  If you have tcl/tk installed maybe you could try
downloading the source version either .zip or tarball and see if that makes any difference.

I must confess that I have not fully tested the noty-1.0.1.exe as I usually call wish on the source directory.

BTW, the behaviour you describe about the tree looking a bit odd, that is the normal behaviour of the [tktree]

[HE] - 2007-03-14
The error raises if I do the following:
   * start noty
   * create a new node
   * click in the text window to edit the text of the node
   * double klick on the 'new node' in the tree to create a link in the text window
   * mark the link in the text window
   * select a new style
   * press return
