Re: [orca-list] Notebook style apps

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

At the time, I'd had a frustrating run-in with Evolution as I was looking
for an e-mail client alternative to Thunderbird.  I hated it so much that I
yanked anything that was tied to it wherever I could.

I agree about Emacs and Org mode. As I said in an earlier post, this doesn't
answer the question regarding Orca though.

I don't understand why you'd steer away from TomBoy Notes because of it's
integration with Evolution. Evolution doesn't seem to be a dependency of
TomBoy Notes, and from what I can tell, it's just a plug in that let's you
include links and maybe more from your Evolution email into TomBoy Notes.
