---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Craig <mtb...@ya...> Date: 19 May 2010 02:26 Subject: Idea for BasKet Notes To: ke...@ie... Hi, I've been looking for a Linux replacement for Evernote. BasKet Notes looks to be the closest, but is lacking in one critical feature that keeps me from really using BasKet. With Evernote, I loved its ability to simply paste in text with embedded hyperlinks and also simply paste in images. EN even had a convenient "webclipper" that after you selected the text and/or image(s) you wanted, you just click their webclipper button and it would automatically save it all. It looks like with BasKet, you have to manually insert hyperlinks into text and manually insert images. The only Linux apps I'm aware of that you can simply paste in hyperlinked text and images is big word apps, like OpenOffice Word. I couldn't find any Linux note-taking apps that can do this. I think if BasKet had this ability, it would be one of the top apps for Linux, since I see so many Linuxers longing for a good Evernote and Onenote alternative with the ability to paste in hyperlinked text and paste in images. How difficult do you think this idea would be to implement it in BasKet and do you think it's a good idea? Sincerely, Craig -- Kelvie Wong |

Don't we already have this functionality? Or is it broken? --Robert On Wednesday, May 19, 2010 3:05:28 am Kelvie Wong wrote: > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Craig <mtb...@ya...> > Date: 19 May 2010 02:26 > Subject: Idea for BasKet Notes > To: ke...@ie... > > > Hi, > > I've been looking for a Linux replacement for Evernote. > > BasKet Notes looks to be the closest, but is lacking in one critical > feature that keeps me from really using BasKet. > > With Evernote, I loved its ability to simply paste in text with embedded > hyperlinks and also simply paste in images.
