A Personal Wiki is a non-collaborative [Wiki]-like application that lets a single individual browse, edit, search, and link together their own personal collection of pages.  At present there are at least four  applications of this kind written in TCL/TK and downloadable:

   * [Wikit], the [Wiki] software that runs this website, can be run as a standalone personal Wiki.
   * [Notebook App] is an application designed from the ground up to be a personal Wiki.
   * [Tkoutline] doesn't have search capabilities, but it does allow browsing, editing, and linking of collections of pages. In this case the pages are outlines.  Also, there is no distinction between edit mode and browse mode.  
   * [Minkowsky] is a task, appointment and an address manager.

'''Suggestion for a PIM'''

2004.12.20 [WJR] Hi - I'm looking for a Tcl/Tk-based addressbook or PIM. Any recommendations? Thanks!

[RA2] For a PIM wiki like, I recommend this very wiki we are writing on: Wikit. It works great! Like many have done, you can download it and install it on your hard drive. [NoteBook App] programmed by [Will Duquette] can also do the work brilliantly (stand alone no browser required). 

{LV] However, most PIMs include some degree of ''management'' functionality
for the personal information.  The wiki doesn't really do much - it
provides one search capability.  However, it doesn't provide, for instance,
the ability to sort ones addresses in various manners, etc.  Certainly
one can easily use a wiki to collect various pieces of personal information,
and then create some coarse degree of hyperlinking between pages.  Which
makes it functional, and free.  That's not a bad way to start.  Then
perhaps after you've figured out what other features you need, or at
least want, you can either look into enhancing the software or locating
a more featureful package.

---> If you'd like to change the look of your personal wiki yourself and if you know a little HTML, Eddies Wiki 1.1 is the big favourite in this arena. Download it from http://tinyted.net. More info here: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?EddiesWiki. Eddies Wiki (also called Wiki Server) is written in C++; it comes with a server and only a browser is required.  

---> WxWidgets was used by RyanNorton to make an excellent cross-platform personal wiki: http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxprojects 
(based on Eddies Wiki)

For a tcl-tk based address-book, try [Minkowsky] and report on it. I haven't tried it myself...

'''Enjoy wiki!'''
