Hello,
I use gnote for notetaking on my desktop, and really like it, except that it requires GNOME libraries which is what I want to avoid on a lightweight system.
So I would like to know if there exists a similar tool but that doesn't need GNOME. I'm not looking for a "desktop wiki" like ZIM, it's way too much for what I want, just something that can be easily accessed via a keyboard shortcut, allows links and has some basic search features.
Thanks!

I use notecase. It is probably a bit basic given your description of what you want...

nano... Always the handy tool for text editing.

Does nano have search?

Ctrl-\ for search and replace... (and Ctrl-R if you don't want to replace anything).

orgmode for emacs- search, links, folding, tables, todo, tags, agenda

you could try rebuilding without applet support.

Sorry, I missed this thread so far, but --
If you ever want to go the vim route ( ) then have a look at Vim Outliner (vim-vimoutliner package in the AUR).
It utilizes basically plain text files. I use it regularly for keeping todos as well as almost all of my notes.

To know or not to know ...
... the questions remain forever.

I recommend Emacs & Org-mode.

I know, "solved", but how about code-browser? It's in the AUR. I don't think people really consider it but its pretty nice--different, but nice.

I know its solved and old, but for those that might search the forums, zim is extraordinarily light and does not require the know how that vi(m) and emacs requires.
