Suggestion of attributes

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi.

I´ve some suggestions for Keep Note. 

The unstructured perspective of text editors can be minimized with the 
attribute functionality. The user should be able to insert a variable number of 
attributes (name = value) to each note.

Besides it, it would be useful if the attribute´s value could be a link to 
another note, it it would be desirable. This is an ontology-like functionality, 
that is useful to maintain knowledge. It could help to be an alternative to the 
rigid hierarchical alignment of the notes. 

This functionality is similar to the "attachment", but it correlates notes of 
the same unit.

Thanks!

Bill

Do you mean "tags"?

Tags like in http://del.icio.us and gmail? It would be a nice idea too.
The tags would be useful to associate notes with similar content. It is useful 
to manage knowledge. It would be another idea, because I wasn´t talking about 
it.

The first idea is different, it is about note´s attributes (name = value). The 
note´s content is unstructured. I miss some way to get arbitrary structured 
data associated to notes. It is useful to manage knowledge too, because it can 
be used to maintain metadata information. 

The second idea is to admit links into the attribute´s value. It is the 
samething as the link functionality that already exists in Keepnote, but these 
links would be into the text field of the attribute´s value, instead of being 
embedded into the note´s content. 

Otherwise, I guess the second idea is functionally similar to the your idea 
about tags. And I guess tags are easier to implement. 

Thank you by your attention.

Another good idea would be alias for notes.
It is hard to put everything on a rigid hierarchical structure. 
Fake notes linking to the real one are a good idea. It would be like an alias.

I would like to suggest you to use real relative links on <A href="">, instead 
of "nbk:///", in order to enable pages created with Keepnote to be used 
directly on Web Servers.

May be a solution to this problema to adapt another <A>´s attribute to store 
"nbk:///" reference and to maintain <A>´s href attribute with relative links. 
I guess it is relatively simple to be implemented and it would be useful to 
expand the ways of use of keepnote.

I am working towards have custom attributes (new columns in the listview).
