PaperBox 0.2

After a couple of months of intense slacking, I’m releasing a much better PaperBox. Download.

I’ve made a screencast:

It is also available for download in full resolution ogg theora format.

Changes

Additional MIME types are included in index: all previously missing OpenDocument formats with text, AbiWord, Microsoft Office, PostScript, and plain text files.

You can bundle tags into categories for easier organising. A simple editor is included. Category files are stored in $HOME/.config/paperbox/categories.

All communication with Tracker is asynchronous. This means that, for example, the program won’t hang anymore if you try to add a tag, but Tracker is currently busy indexing or generally not immediately responsive.

PaperBox responds to external tag changes. If you tag a document in tracker-search-tool for instance, PaperBox will immediately show or hide the tag(s).

And there are some important bug fixes and many translations. See the NEWS file for details.
