1. Namazu (http://www.namazu.org):
Desktop Search (Beagle always crashes and it makes
I was forced to turn to namazu). Its use is simple enough
and can be fully customizable according to taste.
I choose to only index files html and pdf.
Namazu do well. Now I do not need
too dizzy to give a descriptive name for a
file. No need also to put it in a directory hierarchy
particular. Save it in the directory ~ / research. Tell namazu search
based on keywords. One problem was wrong.
2. JabRef (http://jabref.sourceforge.net):
java-based software for organizing references / literature.
Features that made me fall in love is easy
to take immediate list of libraries that I need from
Internet (MEDLINE). Therefore my research in the medical field,
JabRef really good friends. Another feature is Grouping
that can be done based on keywords. Once again
I do not need to copy & paste from everywhere, do JabRef
at once. I can for example classify literature with
Key word “antibiotics” and group-subgroup antibiotics in her again
based on the keywords “Resistance”. My headaches disappeared.

Tellico is a ‘collection manager’. Intended for
storing pieces of information that are structurally organized.
Tellico I use to organize ideas.
Every time there is a specific literature that I think deserve
quoted, I copied the text is then in-paste in tellico with
structures resembling the framework of my thesis. In a short time
Framework of my thesis is fully charged with the theory of the quote
here and there, including the drawings. Without a theoretical framework was already
so, stay polished here and there.

Already downloaded and compiled without any problems. R is terintall,
Unfortunately I’m lazy read the documentation (this seems to illness
contagious :-)). The problem is, when run R only appears with
A flashing prompt serene, that I face with pessimistic: “Must
wasting a lot of time to learn more here. ”
It turned out that the first impression that does not tempt it wrong.
After running help.start (), its direct Introduction
uplifting. After reading the manual more or less
half an hour, I can display a curve x squared on
a window.
