Welcome to the freeNotes homepage. freeNotes is a wiki like application for the desktop. With freeNotes you can create as many notes as you like and using tags navigate through the notes like a wiki. Each note can have as many tags as you like. As soon as a known tag is typed in any note it gets highlighted and you’re only a mouse click away from the note that contains the tag.
The current release is a very early release, so it’s only contains a basic feature set. you can create and delete notes and you can assign tags to notes. Forward navigation is possible, backward navigation isn’t implemented yet.

freeNotes is written in Python using the splendid Dabo framework which is currently based on wxPython. The data is written to a SQLite database.

In principal freeNotes should run on MacOS X, Linux (GTK) and Windows. I’ve only tested on a WindowsXP SP2 installation, so other Plattforms may behave wierd.

You can either download a complete installation (~5.5 MB) which is contains all you need (wxPython,Dabo,SQLite). After you downloaded the archive extract it to any directory you like, to start freeNotes double click on freeNotes.exe.
If you already have a working copy of Dabo (you need at least a Dabo nightly from the 14th of January 2006) and SQLite installed you can download the python source archive. The source archive contains the source (obviously :)) and also contains the file freenotes.db which is the SQLite database. This file needs to be in the same directory as the freenotes.py file when launch the application.
