Here’s what you’ll need in your config file to make it work: Update: A feature enabling you to store notes as a folder of text files has been added, but it’s not well documented. But I’m glad to see that Resoph isn’t the only game in town, and that there’s finally a real option on Linux. I store my notes as text files and sync them with Dropbox so that I can access them on my phone with Epistle, so I’ll be sticking with Resoph for now. Currently the app saves everything in a single flat file in the popular format JSON.

One big missing feature is the ability to save files locally as a directory full of plain text files. If note name is not found in current list of notes, assumes it’s a regular expression and sets it in the search bar.

There’s the closed source but free-as-in-beer ResophNotes for Windows and a Linux clone called Notetak that hasn’t been updated since 2007 and doesn’t sync with SimpleNote.

Over the years there have been a few attempts to clone Notational Velocity. Now there’s an open source clone called nvPY that runs on OSX, Windows and Linux. It’s simple, fast and it can sync with either Simplenote or Dropbox, giving you access to all your text notes from virtually any device.īut it’s only for OSX. The phrase “life changing” gets thrown around a lot by it devotees. Notational Velocity is a cult favorite open source note taking app for OSX.
