 How can I make the menubar work with the New button. Solved
Sub_title: solved |

Hello Everyone,
I have done an editor for Manna, but I have no glue on how to make a new note/file with the New button in the file menubar. Not sure if I need another widget or not.
Any help would be great thanks.
code

Hey Oldyeller.
First of all - that's great you've found the way to control the font in Gtkdialog GUI.
I didn't know how to do it until now, thanks! 
As for adding a new note, here's an example (perhaps there are better methods, but I always use something like this).
I made it "stand-alone" for clarity, but I'm sure you can adapt it to your reader easily:
| Code: | #! /bin/bash
export NOTES_DIR="/root/testdir"
add_note () {
NOTENAME=`echo "$NOTENAME" | tr '/' '_'` # replace '/' with '_'
[ ${#NOTENAME} -eq 0 ] && Xdialog --timeout 5 --title "Reader Error" --msgbox "Error: Empty note name!" 0 0 && return
[ -f "$NOTES_DIR"/"$NOTENAME" ] && Xdialog --timeout 5 --title "Reader Error" --msgbox "Error: Note already exists!" 0 0 && return
touch "$NOTES_DIR"/"$NOTENAME"
}
export -f add_note
export ADD_FILE='
<window title="Add Note" modal="true" icon-name="gtk-add" resizable="false">
<vbox>
<frame Note name:>
<entry>
<variable>NOTENAME</variable>
</entry>
<hbox>
<button ok>
<action>add_note</action>
<action>clear:NOTES_LIST</action>
<action>refresh:NOTES_LIST</action>
<action type="closewindow">NOTENAME</action>
</button>
<button cancel>
<action type="closewindow">NOTENAME</action>
</button>
</hbox>
</frame>
</vbox>
</window>
'
export MAIN='
<window width-request="500" height-request="500">
<vbox>
<table>
<variable>NOTES_LIST</variable>
<input>ls '"$NOTES_DIR"'</input>
</table>
<button>
<label>Create new note</label>
<action>launch:ADD_FILE</action>
</button>
</vbox>
</window>
'
gtkdialog -p MAIN |
Greetings!

Hi SFR,
As far as the font goes all I did was go through a program that had it and took what I needed for my reader and editor. Works great, except one has to edit the file for a different size.
This works great.
Added refresh for the Table ITEM and the new notes show up when the refresh button is pressed.
So is there a way to delete a note if one no longer wants one?
This is so closer of being a basic word editor for my notes 
Cheers

Sure it is, even easier:
| Code: | #! /bin/bash
export NOTES_DIR="/root/testdir"
add_note () {
NOTENAME=`echo "$NOTENAME" | tr '/' '_'` # replace '/' with '_'
[ ${#NOTENAME} -eq 0 ] && Xdialog --timeout 5 --title "Reader Error" --msgbox "Error: Empty note name!" 0 0 && return
[ -f "$NOTES_DIR"/"$NOTENAME" ] && Xdialog --timeout 5 --title "Reader Error" --msgbox "Error: Note already exists!" 0 0 && return
touch "$NOTES_DIR"/"$NOTENAME"
}
export -f add_note
export ADD_FILE='
<window title="Add Note" modal="true" icon-name="gtk-add" resizable="false">
<vbox>
<frame Note name:>
<entry>
<variable>NOTENAME</variable>
</entry>
<hbox>
<button ok>
<action>add_note</action>
<action>clear:NOTES_LIST</action>
<action>refresh:NOTES_LIST</action>
<action type="closewindow">NOTENAME</action>
</button>
<button cancel>
<action type="closewindow">NOTENAME</action>
</button>
</hbox>
</frame>
</vbox>
</window>
'
export DEL_FILE='
<window title="Del Note" modal="true" icon-name="gtk-remove" resizable="false">
<vbox>
<text><label>Are you sure you want to delete:</label></text>
<text><input>echo "$NOTES_LIST"</input></text>
<hbox>
<button ok>
<variable>CONFIRM</variable>
<action>rm "$NOTES_DIR"/"$NOTES_LIST"</action>
<action>clear:NOTES_LIST</action>
<action>refresh:NOTES_LIST</action>
<action type="closewindow">CONFIRM</action>
</button>
<button cancel>
<action type="closewindow">CONFIRM</action>
</button>
</hbox>
</vbox>
</window>
'
export MAIN='
<window width-request="500" height-request="500">
<vbox>
<table>
<variable>NOTES_LIST</variable>
<input>ls '"$NOTES_DIR"'</input>
</table>
<hbox>
<button>
<label>Create new note</label>
<action>launch:ADD_FILE</action>
</button>
<button>
<label>Delete note</label>
<action>launch:DEL_FILE</action>
</button>
</hbox>
</vbox>
</window>

gtkdialog -p MAIN |
You can rename a note too, just need to be checked if the new note name already exists (like in 'add_note' func).
Keep it up & Greetings!
