Well I copied the gnote directory in to a tomboy directory.
However, I can't get cherrytree to display a directory (i.e. .local)
which is hidden. How would one do that?
I think you don't need to copy from one directory to the other, just
leave notes in gnote directory (~/.local/share/gnote), then select
import from tomboy, and in the open file dialog just right click and
select something like 'show hidden files' ;-)
HTH,
Germán.
My second attempt is to copy the tomboy directory to /tmp. Now the filwe
is available to cherrytree but clicking open has no effect,
So how can the transfer of databases be done?
