* Package name : tomboy-ng Version : 0.29c Upstream Author : David Bannon <tomboy...@bannons.id.au> * URL : https://github.com/tomboy-notes/tomboy-ng * License : GPL, other Programming Lang: Object Pascal Description : Cross Platform Notes tomboy-ng is a rewrite of the old favorite, Tomboy Notes. Tomboy had become difficult to maintain, unusable on some of the platforms it once supported and required substantial dependencies. Like the original, tomboy-ng supports a range of text enhancements, automatic links to other notes, shows multiple notes, file sync to other systems, printing, multi language (only English and Spanish so far), searching. tomboy-ng uses the same file format and will sync to the same file sync repository. In addition, tomboy-ng can manage its backup files, take snapshots of all notes and config data, has a built in calculator, detailed help notes, spell check, single note mode. tomboy-ng will sync, over the internet, using sshfs to any server the owner can ssh to. tomboy-ng is built, from the same source, to work with 32 or 64 bit GTK2, Qt5 (64bit only) and a list including Windows, MacOS, Raspbian. It can be built for GTK3 but not to a satisfactory standard as yet. A script exists that will convert the zip file downloaded from github to a 'kit' ready for debuild. A tomboy-ng binary install uses about 5Meg, in most systems little or no additional packages are required. Some issues remain about building in a manner appropriate for Debian. Its not clear, at present, if tomboy-ng will build satisfactory using the version of Lazarus in Buster. Bullseye is fine.
