For people who are often taking notes and always stuck at a command prompt there is an application for you. Note is a simple tool with a functionality that is similar to KNotes but for the command line.
How Notes Are Stored
This application uses a database to store the data but with modules you can use text file storage. With Note you can easily create and edit notes or manage old ones. You can search between the notes you have created or even import old databases.
Install Note
To install this useful little tool just try these commands in your Terminal.
$ sudo apt-get install note
You can use Note directly from the command line with options or you can use Note in interactive mode which is much the same.
