Hi!
Does anyone know a simple graphical program to handle simple
documents, such as notes, short lists of items or small databases? A
parsable format (e.g. XML) for file storage would be good.

See www.xdb2.com for a small experimental db that fits on a floppy. If
you can post some sample data, we can attempt to enter it.

Why do you need a "graphical program" to enter text?
Why XML if your needs are simple? It is good for some forms of
data, but it is not a panacea. A simple text file can be parsed
with less overhead than XML.

What variety of graph
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_%28mathematics%29> were you
thinking of mapping the documents onto?
You should realize, of course, that "simple documents" are generally
not particularly useful to try to map onto graphical schemes.
It's quite likely to be a lot better to look at existing systems for
managing text. Emacs has a "records" mode that is very nice for
building sets of notes, in the form of "diary entries" that can link
to one another.

Have you heard of the new Macsyma processor? It has three instructions --
LOAD, STORE, and SKIP IF INTEGRABLE.

At my previous place of work, I used Lotus Notes and was able to create
documents to hold notes. To get similar functionality at home, I've
installed MediaWiki ( http://www.mediawiki.org/) which allows me to
create new documents and link them together.
MediaWiki uses MySQL as its backend, and it is possible to get at the
contents of your pages (e.g. using PHP) - I'm experimenting with this at
the moment.

Emacs has a number of good tools: I use emacs-wiki.el and planner.el for
some of purposes, too.
You might also check out FreeMind ( http://freemind.sourceforge.net/).

Please ignore my last msg. I just found out that FreeMind stores
MindMaps as XML :). So I am happy. :)

There are lots of little heirarchical note-storing programs. Treepad,
Treeline (my current favorite), Tuxcards, and Knowit come to mind. Most
of these also have Windows versions, which is helpful if you need to
work on both platforms. All of the above are free-form; they'll store
images and text in each node, but not databases. Hidam
( http://hidam.sourceforge.net) seems promising in offering a combination
of free text and data in each node, but it's alpha quality and
developing very slowly.
Good luck,
Andrew.
