DESCRIPTION

14       This manual page documents briefly the gnote command.
15
16       Gnote  is  a desktop note-taking application for Linux and Unix. Simple
17       and easy to use, but with potential to help you organize the ideas  and
18       information you deal with every day.
19
20       Gnote's  usefulness  lies  in  the  ability  to  relate notes and ideas
21       together, using a WikiWiki-like linking system.
22
23       When run without any options, either a Search All Notes window  or  the
24       Gnote note menu appears in the notification tray area depending on con‐
25       figuration.  Selecting a note from a list in Search All Notes  or  from
26       the menu from notification area displays the note's spatial window.
27
28       Changes  to  notes  are saved automatically.  Links to URLs, files, and
29       other notes are detected as you type.  Rich editing such as  highlight‐
30       ing, bold, italics, undo/redo, and variable font sizes are supported.
31
32       Global  keybindings  exist  to  allow  fast  access  to Gnote notes and
33       dialogs.  These keybindings are set in GSettings (see below) and may be
34       activated from any application.
