Zenity based memo/notes

Simple and basic, yet very usable and non-bloated memos for Your every day life.

Requirements:

1. Linux operating system
2. zenity and libnotify (libnotify: notify-send command) packages installed

Installation instructions:

1. Copy and paste all the contents of the zmemo file into your ~/bin directory.
2. Make script executable chmod +x ~/bin/zmemo
3. Run zmemo new from Your command line or Your favorite search applet (eg: ALT+F2) capable of executing shell scripts

Usage:

• zmemo reckognizes two arguments: new or list
• zmemo new will create new memo file
• zmemo list will show a list of already created memo's

Good to know:

• zmemo allows only one working, launched instance
• zmemo files are ordinary plain text files stored inside ~/.local/share/zmemo.
• When You add new zmemo file, blank spaces in file name will be replaced with underscore _.

Configuration:

In order to change ...

• Default width and height of dialog box window, see lines 24 and 25
• Default zmemo directory for Your zmemo's, line 23

... inside ~/bin/zmemo it self.

Application launcher item

If You want (KDE users for example) to click and open (instead of typing command) memo's, create new desktop file (eg:/usr/share/applications/zmemo.desktop) and paste contents from zmemo.desktop. You may want to uncomment #Icon= line and provide some.
