Autostart tomboy in tray

I've read several posts on how to autostart applications in the tray.

Tomboy doesn't appear to have a --minimise option that can be added to prevent the application opening in full screen when I first log in.

Anyone know how to do this with Tomboy?

Re: Autostart tomboy in tray

^ Wow ... I was going to load Tomboy to test because as I recall it has systray capabilites but the requirements are too steep:

binfmt-support cli-common libdbus-glib1.0-cil libdbus1.0-cil libgconf2.0-cil
  libgdiplus libglib2.0-cil libgmime2.6-cil libgtk2.0-cil
  libmono-addins-gui0.2-cil libmono-addins0.2-cil libmono-cairo4.0-cil
  libmono-corlib4.0-cil libmono-i18n-west4.0-cil libmono-i18n4.0-cil
  libmono-posix4.0-cil libmono-security4.0-cil libmono-sharpzip4.84-cil
  libmono-system-configuration4.0-cil libmono-system-core4.0-cil
  libmono-system-drawing4.0-cil libmono-system-security4.0-cil
  libmono-system-xml4.0-cil libmono-system4.0-cil mono-4.0-gac mono-gac
  mono-runtime tomboy

According to this page, there are options to use it in a system tray but it may be contingent on Ubuntu's Indicator applet

I used another one a while back, but cannot recall it.. Will search and find it and report back

Re: Autostart tomboy in tray

Found it...  It is Gnote which is a port of Tomboy and has a lot less requirements and does have panel support

apt-get install gnote

The following extra packages will be installed:
  libgtkmm-3.0-1 libpanel-applet-4-0 libpcrecpp0
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  gnote libgtkmm-3.0-1 libpanel-applet-4-0 libpcrecpp0
