title: Tp-Note - fast note-taking with templates and filename synchronization

Tp-Note is a note-taking-tool and a template system, that consistently synchronizes the note's meta-data with its filename. Tp-Note collects various information about its environment and the clipboard and stores them in variables. New notes are created by filling these variables in predefined and customizable Tera-templates.

Upgrading

When you install a new version of Tp-Note, please delete the old configuration file, that is automatically written in

  • Linux: ~/.config/tp-note/tp-note.toml

  • Windows:C:\Users\<LOGIN>\AppData\Roaming\tp-note\config\tp-note.toml>

The reason is, that the structure of the configuration file might change from version to version. For example, new configuration variables might be added: When Tp-Note starts, it reads the old configuration and will complain about a malformed structure. I recommend deleting the old configuration file, even when there is no error message: new template-variables might activate new features, that will only be available, when Tp-Note starts with a fresh default template.

There is no need to say, that in case you modified the configuration file, you should backup it before deleting.

Building and installing

    If it works for you, you are done. Otherwise continue the next step.
