Set up infinote server for collaborative use
If you've followed my recent text editor series you will have noticed I included a text editor that is also a collaborative tool (see my article “Kobby: KDE collaborative text editor“). In that article I mentioned that Kobby can work with the GNOME equivalent Gobby. But to do so they need a server running. The best server for that service – Infinote. Infinote is the new protocol used in Gobby (replacing the out of date obby) and is put in place with the libinfnity package. Without this package you would have a difficult (if not impossible) time getting Kobby and Gobby to communicate with one another.
In this article I am going to show you how to install and run an infinote server so that Kobby and Gobby can communicate with one another.
