I would like some feedback from anyone who has found and is using any free-form database program in Linux. Something similar in nature to askSam. I wish to migrate all of thousands (literally) emails, tech notes and other minutia to an easily accessible and usable program that allows advanced search, sorting, formatting and printing capabilitities (not command line). Free-form, not structures, is the key! My search on the Web has given me only two possibilities so far: 1) Use command lines Linux utilities (like 'grep', etc.) and text files; or 2) A program like TreePad, which is available for both Windows and Linux platforms. Importing capabilities are crucial. I also do not want to tie this database to any email program.
Anyone tried/using TreePad? How is it from a data managability standpoint? Does it seem to work well in Mandrake Linux? Any other possibilities? TIA, T
