May 23, 2012 at 21:21OutWiker. Open source note storage program
Hi, habravchane.
The other day I posted a new version of the program for storing notes OutWiker . Once, more than a year ago, I already wrote about it on Habré, during this time the program was updated many times, it acquired new opportunities that it makes no sense to compare the latest version of the program with its (pose) last year’s version.
OutWiker is a cross-platform (Windows, Linux) program for storing notes in the form of a tree. OutWiker is open source. A feature of the program is that all records are not stored in one file, and the structure is formed from attached files and folders. In addition, the program supports several types of pages: simple text pages, pages where HTML is used for writing notes, and pages in a wikinotation format (reminiscent of pmWiki).
For example, the following screenshot shows the wikitext for the first picture of the post.
For wikinotation, you can see its correspondence in HTML format. This feature can be used, for example, to design blog posts. Still, Wiktionary is more concise than HTML, therefore, IMHO, it is more convenient to use it for writing large texts.
If you do not want to use wikinotation, you can write notes directly in HTML format. In both formats, buttons are displayed on the toolbar for inserting the most frequently used tags (for HTML pages) and wikimedia commands (for wikis pages). There is still a type of pages without layout - ordinary text records, but there is nothing much to talk about.
For each page, you can set tags (tags), which are grouped into a tag cloud in a separate panel. When you click on a tag, a list of notes marked with this tag will open.
Recently, OutWiker began supporting plugins, a list of which can be seen here.. At the time of writing these lines, the following plugins have been created: for coloring code in various languages, for exporting notes and tree branches to HTML format, for creating links to LiveJournal users, as is customary in LiveJournal itself, and a few other plugins related to page design in wikinotation. For example, the following screenshot shows the operation of the Source plugin for coloring source codes.
In the near future there are ideas for some more useful plugins.
You can embed TeX formulas on wikisages, embed attached pictures or their thumbnails (plans include a plug-in for creating a gallery of attached pictures).
In addition, relatively recently they sent Ukrainian localization to OutWiker.
OutWiker 1.6 introduces the ability to set page styles. The screenshots below show the same page using different styles.
As I already said, the program is cross-platform, Windows users can download the assembly for this OS, for Linux there is an archive with source codes, and for Ubuntu users a PPA is prepared, links to all this are on the program page .
Wishes and comments are accepted. You can also leave your wishes on the site outwiker.reformal.ru , where at the same time you can vote for proposals from other users.
