Okay, so I'm looking for a program for my handheld (Dell Axim X30, Windows CE) which handles simple text files. The thing is, I want to be able to add tags to these text files, to help things remain organized. (Tags: google main, delicious).
I also want a desktop version that will sync with my pda. Is this too difficult to ask for? = )
Gr, maybe I should finally get down to business and learn programming...
Any suggestions?

Re: PIM, handhelds, syncing and tagging!
Thu, June 30, 2005 - 12:09 PMNo idea on the WinCE front, but I'm looking to organise myself through text files over the coming months, and am wondering if I can get away with something extremely simple - like just denoting tags manually in text (e.g. "[_stuff_]") - and then having a really simple search script that basically just greps through everything.
Depends on grep-like commands though, so YMMV...
Can anyone see any major drawbacks with this other than scalability perhaps? -

Re: PIM, handhelds, syncing and tagging!
Thu, July 7, 2005 - 12:14 PMI emailed the folks at TreePad and asked if they were going to come out with a version for handhelds. The rep. said in the next year they will. In the mean time, however, we could use this:
www.realtimetools.com/NoteTree.htm
It is compatible with TreePad files.
I used FreeMind on my desktop for brainstorming. It's free, and very, very cool. I wanted to take this with me also, and someone offered this suggestion: Instead of having a version of FreeMind for pda, just use a Word file. Make an outline (the screen really isnt big enough for brainstorming in a mind map) and use tabs to indent new layers.
Then, sync with the desktop. Then, highlight the outline and drag it into FreeMind. FM will automatically convert the outline into a visual mind map! = )
