I just need the tagging features, and some kind of searching 
features, so I can quickly find the correct document.



Check out TagBot http://204.9.184.47/software/. Looks like 
it's exactly what you need.

Refresh / Update / Reload Web Archive

2007-04-11 Thread Patrick Gilmour

Hi,

I have several online timetables stored as Web Archives that now need  
to be updated as the timetables have changed.


Is there any way to do this easily or do I need to return to the URL,  
create a new Web Archive and then delete the old one?


Thanks,

Pat

Feature Requests

2007-04-11 Thread Yash L. Khemani

Hi,

I've been using YoJimbo now for a couple of weeks and have integrated  
it into my daily workflow.


I use it for everything from keeping meeting notes to storing  
passwords, serial numbers, receipts, account statements.  I want to  
use this as my central information store.


I find myself, however, really wanting a few features in YoJimbo:

1. Tabbed windows.  It would be great to have tabbed opening of  
multiple items in YJ.  Certain things you need throughout the day  
will be kept open all the item.  It would be nice, also, to have a  
default set of items to open up when you launch YJ (namely, those  
items you access throughout the day).


2. Nested collections - it would be nice to have collections within  
collections - both of tagged and regular collections.


3. Read only notes - It would be nice to be able to mark a note as  
read only so you do not accidently edit it.


4. It would be nice to have a feature to export all items in a  
collection and all items in YJ.  YJ really works for me, but if I  
decide a year down the road that I want to change my workflow, I'd  
like to be able to easily take my data in a portable format and go.   
If you export all, it would be nice to have files dumped into folders  
named by the collection names.


Let me know if you have any questions or require additional  
information about any of these requests.


Thanks,
Yash

My question is, what sizes are we talking about, that you consider  
a pdf collection as massive ???


My databse is just 55 MBs.


To be honest, I'm not sure what the fuss over PDFs is all about. My  
Yojimbo library contains over 2000 PDFs, with sizes ranging from a  
few K to 25+ MB, and I don't have any problems. My whole Yojimbo  
library is 9063 items and right at 4 GB in size.

My PDF collection is a couple of Gigs.  Yojimbo will handle 55 MB's  
just fine.  I have syncing turned on, so it was more of an issue with  
Apple's .Mac syncing, than Yojimbo.   If I could even have a  
collection that I could say not to sync, and if the searching issues  
with large db's is fixed, then all would be fine for me, and no need  
to use two programs.


Also, the db that Yojimbo uses is built into OS X; sqlite.  I wonder  
how MySQL would compare to the speed of sqlite.


Good luck!

Best Regards,

Bruce

For me, it is syncing.  If I could turn off syncing, and put all my  
PDF's in one category, but have the other categories sync, I would be  
all set.  How fast is your searching with that size?  My sqlite size  
is 400MB, and searching takes a bit the first time.  It also seems to  
load a lot into memory.

Bruce

Choosing Export... from the file menu will export the selected items.

If you wish to export all your collections into named folders, you  
can do so using the scripting interface. (Keep in mind that an item  
can exist in multiple collections, and all items are accessible  
through the Library.)
