Upon further reflection, I think a simple unixy solution for my case would be this:

Have directory of notes, use a tool to search the contents for all files in directory x, edit files with vim/nano/etc. Browse files quickly using ranger.

The tool? grep. For speed and convenience, I added a bash alias:

alias n="grep -R ~/notes -e"

$ n sxmo
/home/user/notes/do:install sxmo on pinephone

I do not recommend recoll as it is too messy and overcomplicated for this task.

Unfortunately I also cannot make use of qownnotes because it looks like this, probably not playing nicely with my cwm environment

(this is what it looks like maximized)

It is not adjustable :')

That's a problem with the class-loader of the application in this version.
But perhaps there is an alternative with qownnotes.

Thanks for looking into this, throgh. Sad news, but it is what it is.

I find myself using the graphical notebook apps because I can't get used to emacs even with org mode... but I might have to try again for the 5th time lol

Okay, a picture is now right back clearer: The application in version 2.21 has its problems reported and seems to have problems with load-ordering of the classes. Newer versions are incompatible with gettext-tiny. So there is no other choice as to remove rednotebook.

Not possible to review for the moment as it works here. Can you please give out more details or try to look for the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'journal'? There should be something missing then on your installation but we need to assure which part and package is then missing I have then installed here.
