mmullers	First of all, I love this program. I have been addicted to note takers since late 2004. I have one large note file (20MB) this literaaly has my whole life for the last 20 years on it. I imported it from notecase into cherrytree yesterday, and I am blown away. It imported nealy perfectly. It has all the features I really missed on the other packages.This is BY FAR the best package I have ever tried. My question is, has anyone thought about making a windows portable app of this with python and gtk all buit in? Here’s my dilema: I carry my data on a usb stick. It’s a bootable Lubuntu with notecase on it. I also have a fat32 partition on the drive which has some portable windows apps, including notecase.exe, so that in the case I am using a windows only computer, I can acces my .nce file from a windows host. I really don’t want to muck up a friends xp machine by installing python, adding a dll, and gtk before I can access my file. I wonder how hard it would be to make a portable app out of this. Any thoughts? One suggestion: add a “donate” button to the website. I would like to be the first to throw some cash at this, the program is worth it to me!

giuspen	I understand your needs, will try to create a portable windows archive for the next version. As for the donate thank you, maybe I’ll add it in future Cheers.

mmullers	giuspen, Thanks for your very prompt reply. My intent was not that you should create the portable app (your time is much too valuable for a task like this). It was my hope that one of your windows users would see the value and volunteer to create the portable app. I have been windows free (Linux only) for my own use for about 10 years; my xp skills are a bit rusty, and I have no experience in Vista nor 7, but perhaps I will try this myself to save you the effort. In any case, there is no rush. I’m hooked on cherrytree! Mike

taa	Giuseppe: A portable version would be very useful to me as well, mainly for work, and for similar reasons (I have to avoid installing apps on customer PC’s). mmullers: I’m very curious — how exactly do you have your notes organized to encompass 20 years?
