Recently the Tomboy Notes has been released for windows. This is great news, as my current work build is windows and I have a shed load of notes stuck on my linux box at home.

Installing.
I found this didn't work 1st time, so these are the steps.

You should now be able to run tomboy... it appears in your system tray.

Importing Notes.
If like me you have a linux box with a load of notes you want to read, then follow these steps.

On your linux box:

  • cd into \$HOME/.tomboy
  • copy all .note files

Transfer the .note files to your windows box.

On your Windows box:

  • Exit tomboy
  • cd into C:\Users\\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\tomboy
  • paste all your .note files

Start Tomboy & Enjoy!
