NoteCase runs on Windows and Linux and supports editing with rich-text formatting such as bold, italic, underline, and custom color formats.
There is also an advanced commercial version of this product named NoteCase Pro.
- Overview
-
NoteCase is a hierarchical note manager program; such programs are often called outliners. It is written in portable C++ (using GTK+ 2.x toolkit) and can currently be compiled on the Windows and Linux operating systems.
NoteCase is published as open source and licensed under the BSD license.
Design principles:
- simple but usable GUI
- keep program dependencies (other libraries) to the minimum
- modular code: separate the GUI code from the low level document editing library
- make it scalable (works on Zaurus)
- optimize for speed
See the Changelog section for a precise list of implemented features and changes.
- Concepts
-
Each NoteCase document file stores one or more notes organized in a hierarchical manner. This hierarchy is displayed on the screen within a tree window (widget). That's why a single note is sometimes referred to as a node, because it is also a node within a tree of notes.
Each note basically consists of two main parts:
- note title (visible in the tree window)
- note text (visible in the text view window)
Each note title has an associated note text, which can be edited by clicking on the text view window.
Additionally, each note has other information parts such as:
- text formatting (fonts, bold, italic, ...)
- attachments
- links
- pictures embedded in the text
The free NoteCase program can open only one document at a time; NoteCase Pro does not have this limitation.

- task management features - Usage
-
Standard NoteCase tasks.
- Command line options
-
NoteCase supports the following command line options:
--export-file - defines the file path used for an export target
--export-css - defines an optional CSS path to be used when exporting to HTML format
--embed-css - CSS will be embedded into the HTML (as opposed to the CSS being linked)
--export-branch - defines the export of a single branch (requires a branch Idx recursive number to follow this flag, the "depth first search" index number)
--password - defines the password used to open an encrypted file
--export-links - when exporting to html, also export (recursively) all documents linked inside the document being exported
Example 1 (open file specified on command line):
NoteCase.exe D:\help.ncd
Example 2 (loading encrypted file):
NoteCase.exe --password mypass D:\help.nce
Example 3 (load file and export it to another format):
NoteCase.exe --export-file d:\aaa.html --export-css dir\temp.css D:\help.ncd
Example 4 (loading encrypted file with password specified and exporting to html):
NoteCase.exe --export-file d:\aaa.html --export-css dir\temp.css --password mypass D:\help.nce
Notes.
1. Option "--export-css" requires an additional path string after the flag.
2. When embedding CSS in the exported HTML, always use an absolute path; a relative path might work, but this is not guaranteed.
3. When linking CSS in the exported HTML, whatever string is passed will just be copied into the HTML tag/field; it is up to the caller to make sure that the CSS path is valid.
- Environment variables
-
NoteCase checks three environment variables on startup:
NOTECASE_HOME - This is the full path to the NoteCase home directory. The default path is "users_home_directory/.notecase".
NOTECASE_INI - This is the full path to the NoteCase initialisation file which is read on startup. The default path is "users_home_directory/.notecase/notecase.ini". This initialisation file is updated automatically, and is not meant to be edited directly. (But see the Usage entry "Export post-processing".)
NOTECASE_HELP - This is the full path to the NoteCase help file; under Windows the default is "help.ncd" in the NoteCase application directory, and under Linux it is "/usr/share/doc/notecase/help.ncd".
- Export post-processing
-
If you want to post-process the result of your export procedure, you need to define one or more post-processing scripts manually inside the .ini file.
See this sample definition of three scripts below:
-------------------- sample begin ----------------------
[Export]
PostExportCount=3
PostExportTitle_1=Convert to OO.org
PostExportScript_1=D:\process.bat
PostExportTitle_2=Convert to Mind manager
PostExportScript_2=D:\process2.bat
PostExportTitle_3=Convert to XML
PostExportScript_3=D:\process3.bat
-------------------- sample end ------------------------
Once defined, scripts can be selected in the export dialog. (The selection is invisible until a script is defined.) After the export is done, NoteCase will call your script with the exported file path as the first parameter.
- Help file setup
-
When NoteCase opens a file it moves to whichever note was open when the file was last saved. This is useful if you want quick access to a specific help page, such as the "Keyboard shortcuts" entry. Make sure that the help file is saved with that page open, and then running help will always give immediate access to that page. It's also useful to mark the help file "Read-Only" before saving it.
- Keyboard shortcuts
-
The following shortcuts are the standard values for their respective actions.
You can customize these defaults using the main menu Edits => Shortcuts entry.

- Main menu entries
-
NoteCase uses the following menus:
1. Main menu.
- handles work with documents, editing text and starting help.
2. Note tree context menu (right click on the tree area).
- handles work with tree node operations (insert, delete, rename, move, import, export).
3. Note text context menu.
- handles work with text editing.
Most menu entries have keyboard shortcuts defined; these are listed in the "Keyboard shortcuts" entry.
The main menu entries are largely self-explanatory. Some that are not are:
1. File => Read-Only
- if a file is saved with the Read-Only flag set, it cannot be saved after further changes unless the flag is reverted.
2. File => Lock Document
- this is used with encrypted files (.nce format). It unloads the file from memory and displays a password dialog, so that the user must re-enter the password in order to continue editing.
3. Tree => Node properties => Mark node as Completed
- Marked nodes (or notes) have their tree view title drawn with a "strikethrough" font. Some operations, such as "Delete all Completed Notes", deal with such notes as a group.
- HOWTOs
-
Expanded instructions for some NoteCase tasks.
- Compilation on Ubuntu Linux
-
Use the following steps to compile and set up NoteCase on Ubuntu (tested on v6.06 - Dapper):
1. Run the command "sudo apt-get update" to refresh the information on the latest available packages.
2. Run the command "sudo apt-get install gettext make g++ libgtk2.0-dev libgnomevfs2-dev" to install the packages needed to compile NoteCase.
3. Download and unpack the latest NoteCase sources and change to the NoteCase directory.
4. Run the command "make" or "sudo make install" if you want to install the application, not just compile it.
Alternatively, you can run the command "make deb" to create a .deb package and then install it with "sudo dpgk -i your_package.deb".
To create or install deb packages, you must first install dpkg; run the command "sudo port install dpkg". To create a .deb package you will also need gmd5sum: run the command "sudo port install coreutils".
- Compilation using Mingw
-
Use the following steps to compile and set up NoteCase using the Mingw compiler:
1. Install GTK+ to "C:\gtk" using the installer for the latest GTK+ development package from http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/
2. Install mingw using the installer from http://www.mingw.org/
3. Install MSYS using the installer from http://www.mingw.org/
4. Edit the file "c:\msys\1.0\etc\fstab", adding the line "C:/gtk /target" to mount the gtk directory to the target directory (note the space between directory names).
4. Edit the file "c:\msys\1.0\etc\profile", adding the line "export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=".:/target/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"" below the "export PATH ...." lines.
5. Open a new MSYS shell terminal and go to the directory with the NoteCase sources.
6. Enter the command "make" to compile NoteCase.
- Create encrypted document
-
NoteCase documents can be encrypted by using the special ".nce" file format:
1. create new document
2. from the 'Save' (or 'Save as...') window, select the file format 'NoteCase encrypted document (*.nce)'
3. click 'Save'
4. you will now be prompted for a password
5. your document is now encrypted and will require the same password to open it in future
See Encryption security in FAQs for a discussion of how secure this document is. - Exporting documents as EXE files
-
When exporting a document to an EXE file, the .exe alone is not enough; you must include all the GTK+ files. For example, you can get the (Windows only) portable version of NoteCase, and just replace notecase.exe with the exe file created by your export.
- Exporting documents with CSS
-
When exporting a NoteCase document to HTML format, you can optionally insert your own CSS file, in order to make your document look nice.
A sample CSS for use with your HTML is given in the attachment to this node. (See the paperclip on the toolbar above). If anyone can manage something more interesting than the sample CSS, please email me.
- Language support in Ubuntu Linux
-
By default Ubuntu does not install support for all available locales (languages),it only installs basic locales depending on the language selected during installation.
Below is an example of enabling NoteCase to use a Catalan translation (using ISO-8859-1 codepage),on Ubuntu (Dapper) Linux ("ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso") installed with the English language as default.
1. Prepare the system
- use Synaptic to install the package "language-pack-ca" (in the "Internationalisation ..." group).
- run the command "system/administration/Language support" to show that Catalan is a supported language.
- check the "Catalan" entry and click "Apply". This will install the necessary files.
- select Catalan as the default language in the drop list and click OK.
- now log off and log in again for the new language settings to take effect.
2. Compile NoteCase or install it from the available packages (see this topic)
3. Add the missing locale
- run the command "sudo gedit /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local".
- add the line "ca_ES ISO-8859-1" to the file, save the file, and exit gedit.
- run the command "sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales".
4. Check the result
- start NoteCase and set "Catalan" language in the Options window.
- restart NoteCase and it works! The user interface is now written using the Catalan translation.
- Merging NoteCase documents
-
To merge two NoteCase files:
1. Load the first NoteCase file.
2. Import the next document file. The new file will be appended at the end of the node tree.
3. Repeat step 2 for any additional files to be merged.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Autosave feature
-
I can't get the Autosave feature to work.
Perhaps the autosave is the wrong name for this feature. It actually creates a copy of the entire document in the "~/.notecase/" directory. If NoteCase crashes, when it is restarted it will detect these files and offer to load them. That way, you won't lose the data you entered before the crash. If NoteCase closed its files successfully, before shutting down it will delete the temporary files from the "~/.notecase/" directory. - Command line document export
-
How can I automate the export of a document from the command line?
NoteCase supports several command line flags to help you automate file exports.
Example 1:
NoteCase.exe --export-file d:\aaa.html --export-css dir\temp.css D:\help.ncd
Example 2 (loading an encrypted file with password specified and exporting to html):
NoteCase.exe --export-file d:\aaa.html --export-css dir\temp.css --password mypass D:\help.nce
Flags used when exporting:
--export-file - defines the file path used for the export target.
--export-css - defines an optional CSS path to be used when exporting to HTML format.
Note that the program will close after completing the export, to permit batch processing of multiple documents. - Command line file opening
-
How can I open a file from the command line?
Just pass an absolute file path as an argument to NoteCase on the command line.
Example 1:
NoteCase.exe D:\help.ncd
Example 2 (loading encrypted file):
NoteCase.exe --password mypass D:\help.nce - Encryption security
-
How secure is the encrypted file format?
NoteCase uses the Blowfish algorithm for its encrypted format. This algorithm is considered to be pretty strong and is very popular and widely used, especially since it's patent-free. For really paranoid people (or the ones that require a really high level of security) there is one more issue to consider; program memory can be swapped from memory to hard disk (a swap partition or swap file) while the program is running. In that way the contents of a protected document might end up being written to swap in unencrypted form.
There are two standard ways to ensure a high level of the safety of your information:
- by using an encrypted swap partition (on Linux)
- by wiping all the data in your swap partition, for example on each shutdown

-
How can I find the supported locales (languages) on my system?
On a Linux terminal run the command "locale -a" to get a list of all supported locales. - New version notification

How can I be notified when a new version is released?
- register as a new user at SourceForge.net (it's free).
- after logging in to your new SF account find the project summary page at http://sourceforge.net/projects/notecase.
- click on the green section link "Download NoteCase", and find the table for the NoteCase package.
- click on the monitor icon (it looks like an envelope) to add this project to your monitor list.
That way you will get email notification each time a new version is released. - Windows version startup
-
I can't start the Windows version.
Sometimes when starting NoteCase Windows gives the error message:
"The procedure entry point libiconv_set_relocation_prefix could not be located in the dynamic link library iconv.dll"
This is a common case of so called "DLL hell". Basically, some other application has installed the older version of the same dll on your system. Since this version is probably installed in the Windows system directory, Windows ends up using this older version instead of the proper one, which is our new version of the library. Such errors usually happen on one of these libraries: iconv.dll, libxml2.dll and intl.dll. There is an easy solution:
- find the new version of those libraries; look in "C:\gtk\bin\" or in a similar GTK+ directory of the portable version.
- copy those DLLs into the same directory as notecase.exe.
- Windows
-
There are a number of ways to install NoteCase on Windows.
1. Windows.zip archive
If you have already installed GTK+, just unpack the archive contents and start the program.
A GTK+ installer package is available at <http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/>.
If you wish to compile the sources yourself, download and install the latest development GTK+ package, otherwise you'll need the runtime GTK+ package version only.
2. Windows .exe installer (written using InnoSetup tool)
Start the .exe installation. If you are installing for the first time, make sure that you check an option for GTK+ installation when you get to the appropriate screen.
There is no need to check this option if you already have GTK+ installed.
See also the HOWTO, "Compilation using Mingw". - Linux
-
There are a number of ways to install NoteCase on Linux.
1. Linux installation from a source code archive
Just unpack the sources and run the command "make install". After this has completed, you can delete the directory containing the unpacked sources.
2. Linux installation from binary RPM package
If you are installing the program for the first time, run the command "rpm -ivh notecase-xxx.rpm", where xxx stands for current version+arch.
If you want to upgrade an existing NoteCase version run the command "rpm -Uvh notecase-xxx.rpm"
See also the HOWTO, "Compilation on Ubuntu Linux".
- OSX
-
1. OS X installation.
- to install .deb packages, you must first install dpkg; run the command "sudo port install dpkg"
- install macports from http://www.macports.org/
- make sure that you have the gcc compiler from http://connect.apple.com/ (download XCode from the Development section)
- run the command "export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH" in a terminal
- run the command "sudo port install gtk2" (this will take a while)
Now you can compile NoteCase; unpack the sources and run the command "make" to compile or "make install" to compile and install. An alternative to compilation is to install a pre-compiled NoteCase binary, available from the project website.
NoteCase must be started from an X11 terminal as "notecase.x11app".
OSX might also automatically open NoteCase on a double click of "notecase.x11app".

Notes on NoteCase internals and build processes.
- Sources
-
The program source code is divided between several directories:
/src/lib - contains core code (not dependent on any GUI library)
/src/gui - contains abstract GUI (GKT+) wrapper classes easily reusable by other projects
/src/_unx - contains code specific for Unix platform
/src/_win - contains code specific for Windows platform
/src - other code (main, interface, dialogs)
The GUI code was generated from a notecase.glade file and then manually edited (see /docs/notecase.glade).

Instructions for compiling NoteCase from source code.
IMPORTANT:
To compile NoteCase for different processor architectures, please define the correct byte order for your CPU (little endian, big endian, ..). The #define in question can be found in blowfish.cpp file, with the default value:
"#define ORDER_DCBA // choosing Intel in this case".
LINUX compilation:
0. Prerequisites:
- a recent GTK+ must be installed (this comes with every Gnome installation).
1. Unpack the sources.
2. Enter the command "make".
3. The resulting "notecase" binary will be found in the "bin" subdirectory.
4. If you want to install NoteCase on the system enter the command "make install" (previous "make" calls are not required). Even better, enter the command "make install2" to install the application and register NoteCase file formats with the system. Registration is required to handle links to NoteCase documents.
5. If you want to create NoteCase RPMs enter the command "make rpm" (previous "make" calls are not required).
WINDOWS compilation (Visual C++):
0. Prerequisites:
- the development version of GTK+ must be installed under "C:\gtk" (see http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/).
- the Visual C++ 6.0 compiler must be installed.
1. Open the project workspace file (NoteCase.dsw) in Visual C++.
2. Start the project compile (F7 key).
3. The resulting "NoteCase.exe" binary is found in the "bin" directory (under "Debug" or "Release").
WINDOWS compilation (MingW compiler):
0. Prerequisites:
- the development version of GTK+ must be installed under "C:\gtk" (see http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/).
- the MingW compiler and MSYS shell environment (see http://www.mingw.org) is installed.
- the file "c:\msys\1.0\etc\fstab" must be edited to add the line "C:/gtk /gtk" (note space).
1. Enter the MSYS shell terminal, usually available through a desktop shortcut icon.
2. Go to the NoteCase source directory.
3. Enter the command "make -f Makefile.mingw".
3. The resulting "NoteCase.exe" binary can be found in the "bin" directory.
- Data format in memory
-
A document's content consists of nodes, each having its title and text. Nodes are stored inside an one-dimensional vector (or array).
There is more than one way to refer to some node inside a document:
1. The node index within the vector of nodes is is good for temporary access, but since the node can be deleted and the index value reused, if a node index value is stored for some time it may end up not pointing to the original node.
2. The node ID value, generated with m_nIDGenerator, is guaranteed to be unique within a single document for as long as the document lives! For example if you delete node with ID=2, a new node with this ID value will never exist, since the generator value always increases. An ID number thus has no connection with a position in the vector storage, it is simply a unique value.
There are two methods for conversion:
1. To get an index from an ID use: g_doc.GetIdxFromID(nID)
2. To get an ID from an index use: g_doc.GetNodeByIdx(nIdx).m_nID
The hierarchy of the nodes within the document is defined by these node properties:
1. Node parent ID (m_nParentID)
- this variable indicates the parent node for the current node, or is -1 if the node has no parent (ie. it is a root node).
2. Node sibling index (m_nSiblingIdx)
- this variable defines the ordering of nodes that have the same parent. For nodes with the same parent, the node with the lower sibling index comes before the node with the higher sibling index.
- Data file formats
-
Descriptions of the data file formats used by NoteCase.
- Data file types
-
NoteCase supports following file formats for both reading and writing:
1. NoteCase document (*.ncd)
This is a main unencrypted format. It consists of pure HTML with some additional attributes stored as HTML comments. It is compatible with the format used by NoteCenter (see below), with the additional feature that this format correctly escapes special HTML characters, which NoteCenter does not do.
2. NoteCase encrypted document (*.nce)
This is the main encrypted format, and has two versions. The first version is a encrypted form of .ncd format using Blowfish encryption. The newer version of the format adds a compression step before encrypting the contents to the disk. This allows for more than 50-70% average size reduction, compared to the version 1 of the format, or the unencrypted format. See the detailed descriptions of the formats in the subnote.
3. NoteCenter document (*.hnc)
This is an HTML like format, very similar to the .ncd format. It is used by NoteCenter Win32 program (see at: http://notecenter.net/).
Some additional formats are supported for import only:
4. Gjots2 document (*.gjots2)
This is a format of a Gjots2 program available at http://bhepple.freeshell.org/gjots/. Basically it is a plain text format with special lines marking note start, branching etc.
5. Sticky Notes document (*.xml)
This format is used by Stycky Notes applet, part of gnome-applets package for Gnome desktop environment. It is formatted as an XML document with the note text written between tags <note>,</note>
6. MM/LX document (*.MM)
This is a plain text format used on HP handhelds. Find out more on: http://www.dasoft.com/MMLX
Some additional formats are supported for export only:
7. HTML file (*.html)
This format is essentially identical to the main *.ncd format. It is pure HTML with note hierarchy implemented using definition lists tags: <DL>,<DT>,<DD>
8. Text file (*.txt)
NoteCase can export a document in plain text format, with node titles generated as in this example "* 2.1.4: The title". The numbers indicate the node's hierarchical position.
- Unencrypted file details
-
NoteCase document (*.ncd)
This is the main unencrypted format. It consists of pure HTML with some additional attributes stored as HTML comments. This format is compatible with the format used by NoteCenter (see below), with the additional feature that this format correctly escapes special HTML characters, which NoteCenter doesn't do. Additionally some internal data used by NoteCase is written as HTML comments (using HTML comment tag "<!-- ... -->").
The internal data is:
1. Index of the last active document note
Example: "<!--LastNote:15-->"
2. Node icon property
This property has two types: internal icon (embedded in the NoteCase application) and external icon (external icon file in .xpm format).
Examples:
"<!--property:icon_internal=help-->"
"<!--property:icon_file=D:\tmp\notecase-1.1.2\res\internal_lock.xpm-->"
3. Node keywords list
List of keywords attached to the note is written as string delimited by ';' character
Example:
"<!--property:keywords=;Linux;tech;-->"
NoteCase also implements links which are implemented as standard HTML links.
- Encrypted file details
-
Notecase document (*.nce)
As described, the NoteCase encrypted format actually has TWO versions:
1. First (old) version.
This version uses the Blowfish algorithm to encrypt the content of the basic NoteCase unencrypted format (*.ncd). The binary file consists of file header fields followed by a Blowfish stream.
Format header:
- format signature text "NOTECASE" (8 bytes)
- SHA-1 hash value of a password used to encrypt the file (20 bytes)
- size (32-bit integer) of an original (unencrypted) file - currently not used (6 bytes)
2. Version 2 (used since version 1.0.7).
This version adds a zlib compression step before encrypting the contents to the disk, using Blowfish as in the previous version. The binary file consists of file header fields followed by a compressed/encrypted stream containing .ncd formatted data.
Format header:
- format signature text "NOTECASE" (8 bytes)
- version format string - equals "enc2" for this version (4 bytes)
- SHA-1 hash value of an password used to encrypt the file (20 bytes)
- size (64-bit integer) of an original (unencrypted) file - currently not used (8 bytes)
- compressed stream size (64-bit integer) (8 bytes)
3. Version 3 (used since version 1.3.8).
This version improves on the previous one with better password security. The password is now stored using password salting; the 32-bit random salt is changed at each save.
Format header:
- format signature text "NOTECASE" (8 bytes)
- version format string - equals "enc3" for this version (4 bytes)
- password salt - random 32-bit integer (4 bytes)
- SHA-1 hash value of a password+salt combined (20 bytes)
- size (64-bit integer) of an original (unencrypted) file - currently not used (8 bytes)
- compressed stream size (64-bit integer) (8 bytes)
Note that NoteCase by default uses the latest version of the .nce format, but it can load older versions of the encrypted format to give backwards compatibility. An advantage of the new format (version 2 and higher) is an average 50-70% reduction in document size, produced by the new compression method.

NoteCase documents can be exported as Standalone executables.
This format consists of:
- a copy of the NoteCase executable
- the document data in encrypted format
- ending with "header":
- offset of the start of the document within this file (8 bytes)
- "NOTECASE" string (marker of the standalone mode) (8 bytes)
As previously stated, document data is always stored in encrypted format. If a password was not set when the document was exported, the default password is set to "NOTECASE". At run time, this password is automatically detected and the document is automatically decrypted. Of course, if you set a custom password, you'll have to type it to in order to see the document.
- Embedded image format
-
Since version 1.3.7 NoteCase supports adding images to your document file. NoteCase supports adding any image format that is supported by your GKT+ installation; it should support at least png and jpg. No matter what the input file format, NoteCase always stores data in png format.
Image data is embedded directly into the document using the data URI scheme defined in RFC 2397. This scheme is supported by most mainstream browsers including Firefox, Opera and Safari, but not by IE.
Basically, data is stored directly into the HTML img tag like this:
<img src="data:image/png;base64,
iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAoAAAAKCAYAAACNMs+9AAAABGdBTUEAALGP
C/xhBQAAAAlwSFlzAAALEwAACxMBAJqcGAAAAAd0SU1FB9YGARc5KB0XV+IA

ch9//q1uH4TLzw4d6+ErXMMcXuHWxId3KOETnnXXV6MJpcq2MLaI97CER3N0
vr4MkhoXe0rZigAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==">
The tag above stores a sample image of a small red dot. You can view this image in a browser if you paste the contents of the src="" parameter as one-liner into the browser address field.
This format was chosen because it allows the underlying HTML format of the document to be maintained. An alternative might be to use Microsoft's MHTML format which stores image data as multipart MIME attachments, but that would require substantial document format changes without clear benefits.
- Embedded attachment format
-
Since version 1.4.3 NoteCase supports adding file attachments to your document file. Attachments are properties of document nodes, so each node can have its own attachments.
File data is embedded directly into the document using the data URI scheme defined in RFC 2397. This scheme is supported by most mainstream browsers including Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Internet Explorer 6, but NOT by Internet Explorer 7.
Basically, data is stored directly into the HTML link tag like this:
<A title="image.png" src="data:application/octet-stream;base64,
iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAoAAAAKCAYAAACNMs+9AAAABGdBTUEAALGP
C/xhBQAAAAlwSFlzAAALEwAACxMBAJqcGAAAAAd0SU1FB9YGARc5KB0XV+IA

The tag above stores a sample image of a small red dot. You can view this image in a browser if you paste the contents of the src="" parameter as one-liner into the browser address field.
This format was chosen because it allows the underlying HTML format of the document to be maintained. An alternative might be to use Microsoft's MHTML format which stores data as multipart MIME attachments, but that would require substantial document format changes without clear benefits. You can see that this format is almost identical to the format used for embedded images; only a different tag is used.

- How to make a translation
-
NoteCase uses standard message catalogs (.po files) that can be edited either by hand or by using specialized programs like poEdit.
How to create a new translation:
1. Download and install poEdit.
2. Go to the catalogs page and download the latest version of the translation template file (named "notecase.pot").
3. Rename "notecase.pot" to "xx.po" where xx corresponds to 2-letter ISO code for your language (for example "it.po" is the Italian language catalog).
4. Open the new catalog file in poEdit.
5. Under "Catalog/Settings" menu, set the catalog properties: required fields are Language, Charset (preferred charset is utf-8 for all languages). You should also set your Name and Email address as a translator name.
6. Now you just need to translate all the phrases and save the new version of the .po file to disk.
7. Send me the .po file in an email attachment.
How to update an existing translation:
1. Download and install poEdit.
2. Go to the catalogs page and download the latest version of the translation template file (named "notecase.pot").
3. Open the file catalog in poEdit (xx.po).
4. Select "Catalog/Update from POT file" and select the latest "notecase.pot" file previously downloaded from the catalogs page. This will add any new phrase into the older xx.po catalog.
5. Now translate any new phrases and save your xx.po file.
6. Send me the .po file in an email attachment.
How to test your translation:
You must copy your xx.mo file ("compiled" is the version of the .po file created when saving .po in poEdit) under "/usr/share/locale/xx/LC_MESSAGES/notecase.mo" on Linux platform, or under "notecase_install_dir/locale/xx/LC_MESSAGES/notecase.mo" on the Windows platform, where:
* xx is your language code
* notecase_install_dir is the directory where NoteCase is installed under Windows
If the latest catalog template belongs to a yet unreleased version of the NoteCase you might not be able to test the translations. If that is the case, contact me and I'll arrange to send you the latest development version of NoteCase.
Additionally, some phrases have a _ (underscore) character inside them. It marks the character (the first one after underscore) that will be underlined and used as a menu shortcut. When translating such phrases please choose one character in your translation to be underlined, but take care not to duplicate shortcut characters within a single menu.
The correct ISO language code is best found through Google.

It is used:
- when you cannot install GTK+ on the PC that is used to run the program
- when you want to run NoteCase from a memory stick
To achieve this, copy the NoteCase installation files to some folder as stated below:
/app - directory with the NoteCase program and its related files
/gtk - directory with the GTK+ files copied from an existing GTK+ installation
/config - directory used to store application settings; in portable mode, one .ini file is used for all users
NoteCaseLauncher.exe - program that starts NoteCase, and sets the correct path variables
Some tips that might save space in the portable installation:
- consider compressing all exe and dll files using UPX or a similar tool
- consider removing all language files other than English to save space
When copying your GTK+ installation (for example C:\gtk) into the "/gtk" archive directory, you can skip copying some files and directories in order to save space. Usually it is best to use the GTK+ Runtime installation because it is smaller, but you can also use the Development installation of GTK+.
>
> My C:\gtk is almost 100 MB in size, the GTK+ of NoteCase Portable is only 11 MB...what must be copied over to the portable directory?
>
You can skip copying the following directories, which are used only when compiling:
/gtkglext-examples
/include
Then you can also delete:
- uninst.exe, which is related to the uninstallation of GTK+
- in /bin you can delete all .exe files
- in /lib you can delete all .lib files and all include directories with .h files, which are needed only for compiling, and maybe even few more files. See my archive.
- in /share you need to delete a large number of files. "doc" and "gtk-doc" dirs are documentation and can be deleted, "glade-2" dir can be deleted, since glade is not used, "glib-2.0" dir, "pixmaps" has only glade images and can be deleted, "gtk-2.0" had "demo" subdir which can be deleted", "aclocal" can be deleted
What's left is the biggest directory inside the "/share" named "locale". There you need to delete all the translations that are of no interest to you. Note that English is hardcoded, and does not have a special translation.

System info:
1. What is your NoteCase version?
2. What is your operating system and its version, processor architecture (i386/x86_64/...)?
3. Did you compile NoteCase yourself, or did you use an existing package? Which package did you use?
Bug info:
1. Specify the nature of the problem and the steps to reproduce it.
2. Is the problem random or is it consistently repeatable?
Additional data:
1. Try to give as full a description as possible. For example, some actions can be performed by mouse or by keyboard or by menu, so please describe your actions precisely. Also, if you can reproduce a bug in three steps, it is much better than giving us a list of 50 steps to reproduce it.
2. If a bug can be better explained with an image, send the screenshot to illustrate the problem.
3. Send a sample document file if that can help in specifying the problem.
4. Send the crash dump file:
When NoteCase crashes (or you kill it with some signal), the program generates a file with a title like "notecase_crash_070105_122501.log" in your home directory (actually the /your_home/.notecase/ directory). This file lists the last actions performed by the program before the crash, and can be a very important source of help in tracking the problem. So, even if your NoteCase hasn't crashed, if you notice the bug, send it a signal to crash it, and then send us the generated dump file.
