what do you use to take notes on linux..
i have so many little notes commands and errors messages i want to log but would like something more seamless than finding a terminal, opening vim, naming the file, remembering the file, not ending up with a million little files lost throughout the system; please help

Dude. I'm literally writing a 3 column Gtk note application for this exact purpose right now.

But there's this nifty app I've been using in the meanwhile - Springseed. I haven't gotten too deep into the src, but it uses a Web browser ( a la atom.io ). It's not very performance and you can tell the guys who built it are rookies, but it's pretty and it gets the job done until I'm finished with my project.

oh nice. can i follow the project on github? how can i find it once this 404s?
i'll check out springseed in the mean time, not thrilled about using the browser though.

I just use Libreoffice honestly. Gives me much more control than a stripped down word processor specifically for taking notes.

how do you organize your files?

>>54500598
Everything is backed up to an external 1 TB Seagate drive, and then furthermore organized into specific folder.

libreoffice really ought to have a onenote clone

cherry tree is good to organize notes

Tiddlywiki is pretty great! I use it to store programming knowledge, keep a log of my projects, remember random linux commands, etc.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

I'm terribly sorry for interjecting another moment, but what I just told you is GNU/Linux is, in fact, just Linux, or as I've just now taken to calling it, Just.Linux. Linux apparently does happen to be a whole operating system unto itself and comprises a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Most computer users who run the entire Linux system every day already realize it. Through a peculiar turn of events, I was misled into calling the system "GNU/Linux", and until now, I was unaware that it is basically the Linux system, developed by the Linux project.

There really isn't a GNU/Linux, and I really wasn't using it; it is an extraneous misrepresentation of the system that's being used. Linux is the operating system: the entire system made useful by its included corelibs, shell utilities, and other vital system components. The kernel is already an integral part of the Linux operating system, never confined useless by itself; it functions coherently within the context of the complete Linux operating system. Linux is never used in combination with GNU accessories: the whole system is basically Linux without any GNU added, or Just Linux. All the so-called "GNU/Linux" distributions are really distributions of Linux.
