This page will document ways of getting files from the Linux file system on the OLPC into the Journal within Sugar.

Copy to Journal Script

This python script [http://wiki.laptop.org/images/b/b4/Copy-to-journal.txt] by Reinier Heeres and Phil Bordelon seems to do the trick.

Copy from Journal script

[This script] allows you to copy files from the Journal to the linux filesystem.

To use it, save it using the name copy-from-journal.py. Save it in /home/olpc using the Opera web browser. Go to the [[]Terminal]], and type 

cd /home/olpc

To go to the directory you saved the file in. Then type 

chmod a+x copy-from-journal.py

To make the file executable. Then type 

python copy-from-journal.py -t NAME

But replace NAME with the name you saved in the Journal.
