I think that XQuartz should be installed at this point. Install MacPorts as described on the MacPorts site. But I'm too lazy to rip everything out and put it back to find out. So I agreed to that.Īt this point, I'm not sure whether step 3 was necessary or not. I was prompted to agree to install things that would allow me to run Xcode. I did this by using Spotlight to find Xcode, and then launching it. Scroll to the end, reading all of it of course, and type in the word 'agree' if you agree. Agree to the Xcode license by opening and Terminal and running the command. Clicked on the Resume button beside the Xcode app.Īt that point, the app installed really quickly. (Kill didn’t work, but if you come across this note, you should try an ordinary kill first.) Force killed the store agent process via the Activity Monitor. Information on saved me, pointing out that I probably had a zombie storeagent process that needed to be killed. Eventually, impatience won out, and once again I had cause to be grateful to those who take the time to document issues they see and ways to resolve things like this. As suggested on the MacPorts site, I installed Xcode and Xcode Command Line Tools. Below is just a more expanded list of what I needed to do to follow that advice. The steps take here were suggested by zackpete on a cherrytree discussion list. Which other note-taking wiki-style Linux apps have you used before? Share your experience with us in the discussion box below.Cherrytree is a terrific note taking software but it’s a big tricky to get installed on the Mac. Other Linux distributions, can follow the download button to try Cherrytree out for yourself and remember to return and tell us how you feel about it. $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:giuspen/ppa On Debian based distributions such a Ubuntu and Linux Mint, you can install Cherrytree using following PPA. Ultimately, it depends on which app appeals to you more and meets your work needs.
Of course, Cherrytree’s feature list goes on longer than the highlights above and even more on its wish list which you can look up on its website’s homepage.īoth Zim and Cherrytree are excellent wiki-style note-taking applications but Cherrytree has more functions available to users after a clean installation than Zim does.Īnd though Zim users can always make use of extensions, Cherrytree seems to be more user-friendly to me.
