KeepNote is my favorite tool for note keeping during penetration tests, it’s advertised as cross platform and works great on Linux and Windows. But getting it to work on OSX takes a bit of work, if you are prepared to jump through some hoops I’ve documented the installation process below.
##Install Homebrew
Homebrew is a package manager for OSX, it allows you to install applications in a similar way to BSD ports.
- Keynote for Mac allows you to play a slideshow within a window, instead of full screen, so you can access other apps and files while you present. Captions and titles stick with objects. Easily add text to images, videos, and shapes.
- KeepNote Alternatives. Simplenote is now available for iOS, Android, Mac, and the web. Evernote Bring your life's work together in one digital workspace.
After running the Brew command the following Apple Developer Tools box will appears, click install (you no longer have to install Xcode).
Output:
KeepNote works as an outliner and keep notes or other content in a simple hierarchy of folders as well. In each notebook, you can create folders and pages, as well as sub-folders and sub-pages, and you can re-organize them easily by drag-and-drop. Learn about great open source alternatives to Evernote for notetaking and task management. Mac OS, and Windows which. Keepnote is the best of a sorry lot. Get organized and productive with the leading note-taking app. Download Evernote for Windows, Mac, iOS, or Android and create your free account.
Run brew doctor to confirm the Brew install is working.
Settle the dependencies for KeepNote using Homebrew:
Use Brew to create Python links:
Download:
Install pyGTK & Xquartz
Install pyGTK, double click the download run through the options, you’ll be prompted for your password.

Then do the same for Xquartz and reboot.
Download and extract the latest KeepNote somewhere sensible, like /usr/local/share/ and cd into the bin dir and execute ./keepnote - KeepNote will then open, my install complained about some missing fonts in the terminal when launching. Data rescue 5 pro torrent.
I’ve chosen not to worry about the missing fonts.
Productivity Sauce
NoteCase has always been an indispensable application in my productivity toolbox. So the news that NoteCase's developer ceased its development sent me scrambling for a replacement for this excellent note-taking tool. It didn't take me long, though, to discover KeepNote. Similar to NoteCase, KeepNote is a hierarchical note manager, which means notes in the application are organized in notebooks and subnotebooks that act as nodes in an hierarchical tree. You can assign different icons to each notebook and note (or page, in KeeNote's terminology), which makes it easier to identify and find specific pages and folders.
Keepnote Update
As you would expect from a note-taking application, KeepNote supports different text formatting options, including bold, italics, underlined, and monospaced. Using the available tools, you can also tweak font properties, apply different text and background colors, and choose between several text alignment options. Like any note-taking application worth its salt, KeepNote lets you insert links and images. In addition to that, KeepNote features its own screenshot tool. Choose Edit -> Insert Screenshot (or press Ctrl+Insert), and you can take a screenshot of any currently opened window. KeepNote then automatically inserts the screenshot into the currently opened note. Other nice touches include an integrated spell-check with automatic in-line spell check and a search feature that allows you to search the current page or all existing notes. All pages in KeepNote are stored in the HTML format, and you can view them in the browser or edit them in an external editor. The only missing feature here is the lack of import and export functionality and the ability to encrypt notebooks. There is, however, the Backup Notebook feature that can save the currently selected notebook as a tar.gz archive.
All in all, while KeepNote is still missing a few features some users might consider important, it already provides a viable alternative to the now-defunct NoteCase.

Keepnote not stable
Update your Linux distribution or try to run Keepnote on a different PC at home or work: You can never be sure to have keepnote still available. It seg-faults or behaves strange. It depends too much in odd libraries and packets. Python based applications are low-availability apps in this sense.
This is a perfect no-go for the storage of important information I want to access in one year on the system I run in one year. I'm forced to stay with ugly notecase.use Zim
I use Zim in my daily work, and is great: (http://zim-wiki.org/). It does the work of gnotes, and adds much other goodiesNoteCase Pro Available
Why not consider NoteCase Pro?
Yes, I know it costs money..but it's available, cross-platform, and supported with recent new release.has more features than NoteCase..
Also, NoteCase is still available, just not supported by developer..
Anyway, just curious..the only missing feature here is .
Without the chance, to save a file with a password, there is no alternative solution for NoteCase! What a bummer!
