Hello,
One feature that I would love to have is a Merge/synchronize feature.

Example:
I use TR on both Windows and macintosh platforme (one at work, the other at home).

Going from one environment to another I would like to be able to keep the files aligned.

One way could be export followed by import. It seems to be a simple way to do it

A real nice way to do it by mail Export -> ToMail, and Importing by drag and drop

Thanks
LeColombier

I'm not really sure this is needed... remember, the XML files are 100% identical.

For instance, I have both a Mac running OSX and a Windows computer, with TR installed on both. When I move from one to the other, I simply copy my XML file back and forth. No conversion, etc. necessary. And since I always copy the files back and forth to their original location on both machines, TR simply starts with the newest version of the file.

And of course, if you wanted to email them between the two computers, you could do that too... it's just an XML file, and everything within that XML file represents your complete TR database.

I use Unison to synchronize my XML file between home and work. I use the following script on my Linux machine at work:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# Synchronize my TR file
rm -rf $HOME/.thinkingrock-bak
cp -a $HOME/.thinkingrock $HOME/.thinkingrock-bak
unison -batch $HOME/.thinkingrock ssh://my.home.machine/thinkingrock


There are unison binaries for Linux, Windows and MacOSX, so this works perfectly.
