<div> <div>Exactly - whereas when you're making quick notes, you'll probably (usually) find the time to pop a quick title at the top while the first ideas ferment in your head. For instance, I recently made a note (on paper though) about what I need to do to backup Breezy and get rid of all the crap and broken packages I've installed to start a fresh (I know, I know. I just want to start over with Dapper. This is not where I want to bring up the argument again about the Windowsism of 'Fresh/Clean' installs) </div> <div> </div> <div>So, I got a pen and paper and wrote 'Stuff I need to do for backup'.</div> <div>There I go, underlined. Now I can see what that note is all about. </div> <div> </div> <div>So if Orwell, as a note-taking application just says 'Oh. Time for me to autosave. Let's see. The first sentence is "Blah I hate backups and restores"', then it names that note accordingly.</div> <div> </div> <div>Just a thought.<br> </div> <div>It may be called ~/Documents/Blah001.dat or ~/Blah\ I\ hate\ backups\ and\ restores.txt or whatever, but as a note-taker I think I'd prefer the former naming convention idea.</div> <div> </div> <div>Cheers</div></div> <div><span class="e" id="q_10b6125f8a97cdc6_1"> <div>Chris</div></span></div><br><br> <div><span class="gmail_quote">On 23/05/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Joel Bryan Juliano</b> <<a href="mailto:joelbryan.juliano@gmail.com">joelbryan.juliano@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid"> <div>usually, when I take notes, I save them on whatever filename that pops into my head, sometimes when I'm in a hurry or just being lazy, I save them a filename "asdf.txt", so i got alot of asdfjkl files.</div> <div><span class="e" id="q_10b612092cdf9965_1"><br><br> <div><span class="gmail_quote">On 5/23/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Chris Neary</b> <<a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="mailto:hello@poetofcode.org" target="_blank">hello@poetofcode.org </a>> wrote:</span> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: rgb(204,204,204) 1px solid"> <div> <div>Re: WYSIWOD..</div> <div> </div> <div>Nice idea, and it could be put to good use if implemented well.
