file, use perls open() instead.
CHANGED: excluded some of the help texts from the usage message and the
interactive help command to a manpage.
ADDED: new commandline flag "--encrypt" which one can use to encrypt
the mysql database password. This will be decrypted before
connecting to the db. There is also a new config file option
"encrypt_passwd" which indicates an encrypted db-password.
ADDED: another new config option "ShortCd", which can be set to "yes"
or 1 and if set, then a command like "cd 13" would jump
directly to the topic of the note with the number 13.
ADDED: now you can at any time cd back to the "root" of the
topic-structure using the command "cd /".
CHANGED: mysql.pm does now only do a table-lock on single write
accesses, no more on the whole session. This allows one to
access the same db twice or more.
FIXED: Changed README and Changelog for readability on 80 by 25
displays. And changed indentation of the note script itself.
ADDED: NOTEDB.pm - a generic module, which holds some methods, which
are used by binary.pm, mysql.pm and dbm.pm.
ADDED: NOTEDB.pm generate_search(), which allows one to
use AND, OR and various combinations of them using ( and ).
ADDED: a search does now return the 2nd line of a note if a matching
note's first line is a topic.
CHANGED: use "unshift" instead of push to add $libpath to @INC.
ADDED: a new feature, Caching of notes. supported by binary.pm and
mysql.pm. To turn it on, one need to set "Cache" in the config
to a true value.

<h2>upgrade from previous version of note to 1.0.x</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In any case: BACKUP your existing note database!!!!!!!
|
|
The format has not changed, but some default values
|
|
(see the new config file-sample). Use this command
|
|
to save your note database with your *old* version
|
|
of note:<br>
|
|
"note -D"<br>
|
|
This works with both the mysql and the binary version.
|
|
<p>
|
|
You need to reedit your configfile. Please refer to the
|
|
sample config in config/noterc.
|
|

This version of note has now encryption support build in.
|
|
If you decide to use it, you need to re-initialize your
|
|
note database. That's why, because your current database
|
|
is unencrypted and *if* you want to secure your data, you
|
|
need to secure everything. That means, your existing data
|
|
must be encrypted before you can use this new capability!
|
|
<p>
|
|
Follow this steps:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> backup existing db:
|
|
<br> $ note -D
|
|
<li> backup the db:
|
|
<br> $ cp .notedb .notedb.save
|
|
or (for mysql users!):
|
|
<br> $ cp -r /usr/local/mysql/data/notedb ~/notedb.mysql.save
|
|
<li> go into note and delete all existing notes:
|
|
<br> $ note -d 1-20 (or however)
|
|
<li> now upgrade your note installation:
|
|
<br> $ perl Makefile.PL; make install
|
|
<li> re-configure note. Turn $USE_CRYPT on by setting it
|
|
to "YES".
|
|
<li> re-initialize your database:
|
|
<br> $ note -I note.dump.2323 (or whatever)<br>
|
|
note will prompt you for a passphrase. It will be used
|
|
by Crypt::CBC for encrypting your data.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
From now on, your data is encrypted. You will need the passphrase
|
|
you set above for decrypting it! So - don't forget it!
