I, like most users, am not code-savvy. I dont dare work in Terminal or any activity where my ineptness could cause a breakdown I couldnt correct. I dont dare try to update to a newer build on my own. <br>The 3rd-worlders may not tell you about this problem because they haven't gotten this far yet, but they will. <br>
You have discussed putting a toolbar in Browse. That would be wonderful, not only for a search bar, but for items like Save and Send Link. One could save individual pages, not just the entire Browse activity for the day. Eventually Tinymail would work if it transferred in the same language as sent. In simplest form the problem now is how to get data in plain English from the Journal to Gmail to another computer. Perhaps this would not be difficult to resolve. <br>

</div></div>Interesting. When I read this the first time, I only considered the<br>
approach of first opening an email interface (for instance, Gmail in<br>
Browse) and then selecting a file from the Journal to attach to it. I<br>
hadn't considered wanting to send the document I'm *currently working<br>
on* to someone else as an attachment.<br>
<br>
One reason for this might be due to the fact that we *do* plan to add<br>
a "send to..." option to the palette/toolbar for each activity, to<br>
allow direct file transfers between people running Sugar. Perhaps<br>
there is a place in here somewhere for "mail to..." as well? Or,<br>
perhaps under send to it's possible to select an individual, or a<br>
group, or an *activity* (!) which could then take some action based<br>
upon what it was given. By selecting an email activity, it could<br>
generate a new draft message and automatically attach the file.<br>
