Import/export notes?
This would be an incredibly useful function, assuming they are in a format that can be understood by other note applications.
Really I'm asking this because I want to replace my PPA build with the latest build, but don't want to loose my current notes.
Yeah, that's on the pipeline! I actually have that written down on the Projects section :) https://github.com/Philip-Scott/Notes-up/projects/2
But you won't loose your current notes, they will be auto-imported when you first start up the app again
If I were to build from scratch, would that overwrite the PPA installation and retain my notes?
yeah, it will give you the newest available version and will import your notes :) and if something goes wrong, you can run a sudo apt-get install notes-up --reinstall to return to the PPA version
Do you know what's going on here?

yeah, it looks like you don't have all dependencies installed. You need to install:
granite>=0.3
gee-0.8
gtksourceview-3.0
gtk+-3.0
webkit2gtk-4.0
sqlite3>=3.5.9
And you can do it by running sudo apt-get install libgranite-dev libgee-0.8-dev libgtksourceview-3.0-dev libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev libsqlite3-dev
Oh right, I assumed they must be installed because Notes Up already is. Thanks though.
Did you get into any issues? Things like not importing or the app crashing?
Yeah, it doesn't actually look like the app is the latest version. It doesn't have the help section that we talked about.
Ahh i see. That just builds the app. But you need to run sudo make install to actually install it
I'll update the README in a min
Yeah I literally just realised I had used make rather than sudo make install. Thats what I get for not paying attention.
The syntax highlighting is incredible btw, good job.
Glad that's working out for you now :) Hope you didn't have any problems with the update
Actually, syntax highlighting only seems to be working in one note I've made. The others don't work at all.
@yerbestpal Can you make a new issue and post the markdown there?
