Ever since moving my workflow to almost everything #PlainText it seems very revolutionary compared to 99.9% of rich text editors today. I can work in almost any application. If I dislike what Microsoft does to notepad, I can always just get another #MarkDown Or plain text editor. I don't have to contend with arduous menu structures or unintuitive keyboard commands to perform sentence formatting options. Modern web design and software design feels extremely bloated right now. It's gotten to the point where I started to feel like I needed to get the most modern processor just to run Microsoft Word and that will never be normal to me. It's always going to be a strange Feeling. My new workflow is also extremely portable. With just a few custom autohotkey scripts and a text editor, I can work almost anywhere.

I’ve refined the way I use the #TaskPaper syntax so that my project and task page overview is a truly useful document in #Obsidian as well as in TaskPaper itself.

The way I’m making it work in both #apps without indented tasks becoming code blocks in Obsidian, is to put a wiki link as the first indented item under the project name. This is usually to the project page in Obsidian, but I use a dummy link if there isn’t one.

#Markdown #productivity

Heading: The same task file, beautifully usable in two different apps:
Under the heading are two screenshots of the same section of the author's task file. Depicted are three items on a WORK - To Buy list; 
- [ ] 230916 Buy pastel Posca markers, broad +501
- [ ] 230916 Buy pastel Posca markers, fine +501
- [ ] 230506 Buy laptop Power Bank, Cygnett, $100  +501

The Obsidian screenshot has the Obsidian logo to the left of it. The task list is on a white background to the left of the screenshot, with the Outline Pane showing headlines from the document on the right.

The TaskPaper screenshot has the TaskPaper logo to the left of it. The task list is on a white background to the right of the screenshot, with a list of this and other projects on the left. The project list has a grey background.

I had not tried Omnisearch, but apart from that and Advanced Tables, the suggested ones are not really "my best ones". But the linked article does again highlight one of Obsidian's most powerful features - it's community plugins. Many note takers are good Markdown editors, but few come close to rivalling Obsidian's plugin power, largely created by the community themselves.

Even though free Obsidian is not open-source, it gained a lot of traction and users have created so many valuable plugins. I also like that it leaves all my Markdown formatted files in place where they are. One excellent open-source notes editor I tried, insisted on inserting an odd character at the start of every new line as it was intended an outliner, not a notes editor. Thing is, I like to keep my notes as standard as possible so that I can switch to another note taker in future.

The ones I find really useful are:
* Advanced Tables
* cMenu
* Code block from selection
* Copy Image and URL context menu
* Dynamic Table of Contents
* Excel to Markdown Table
* Highglightr
* Kanban
* Kindle Highlights
* Local Images
* Markdown Formatting Assistant
* Obsidian Enhancing Export
* Omnisearch
* Ozan's Image Editor Plugin
* Related Notes Finder
* Tag & Word Cloud
* Tag Wrangler
* Text Format
* txt as md (edits existing .txt files)
* Underline
* Vault Statistics

But we all have different requirements (like some wanting to play Zoom inside Obsidian, use AI, publish to Nostr, etc), so it is well worth browsing the community plugins and seeing what is of interest to you. There are around 1,180 plugins right now.

Hey #Vim & #Neovim bubble:

I’m thinking of writing a small plugin that defines a cmdline mapping to insert the first-level heading, if the current buffer contains a #Markdown document. The idea is that you have something in the file like

# 2023-09-25 Meeting Notes

and then, later on, do

:w <some-mapping>.md

which expands to

:w 2023-09-25 Meeting Notes.md

Questions:

• Does such a plugin already exist?
• What would be a good key for that? I’m thinking of <C-R><C-T>, see :h c_CTRL-R

@nxadm @vruz Would have been a neat alternate timeline if @gruber just used #Perl #POD instead of inventing #Markdown, but the former admittedly isn’t *quite* as aesthetic when viewed as plain text.

(As evidenced by the above sentence, which would have had to say I<quite> in POD for the same effect.)

Different times, different use cases: POD was invented in a world of man pages and ugly nroff codes; Markdown in web pages in ugly #HTML.

It makes total sense for Perl to move on. With a pinch of salt on using an unspecified "Markdown".

I think the feature-set is limited and I trust the knowledge of people introducing the change.

But it's a fact that most devs know some markdown nowadays (probably the GitHub dialect) and not many feel joy when they have to learn yet another documentation format limited to a single language.

Markdown is a rough idea and a moving target scribbled down by a blogger for his particular needs in his limited scope.

Any long-term work should be based on a better defined derivative such as CommonMark, Pandoc Markdown, Github's GFM, or Markdig.

I assume that's what they actually mean, and not "Markdown" literally, otherwise they're stepping into trouble.

@Mark Kraft Obviously, staying on #MastodonSocial won't let you write #LongPosts. Not unless the devs raise the default character count.

One option would be to ask around which #Mastodon instances allow for more than #500Characters and then move there.

An even better option would be to ditch Mastodon altogether and move elsewhere in the #Fediverse. Then you won't have to ask around for instances with a high character count, and you can stay connected with the same people. Remember that #MastodonIsNotTheFediverse.

#Firefish, for example, offers 3,000 characters by default. Some instances offer even more. And it offers #TextFormatting through #Markdown including formatting that Mastodon still can't display.

There are Fediverse projects with even higher character counts. But another advantage of Firefish is that it can import Mastodon accounts AFAIK which makes moving easier.

@atoponce @aweatherall I’m curious why you wouldn’t want lines to wrap in a #markdown editor or a #pkm app like #Obsidian. I understand that disabling line wrapping is standard for code editors, but Obsidian isn’t one.

EDIT: You can turn off line wrapping in code blocks with the Style Settings plugin if you use the #Minimal theme (which *also* uses the Minimal Theme Settings plugin).

I've been hearing so much about #Obsidian, I decided to give it a try. I always keep my notes in #Markdown, so an editor that visually renders Markdown as I type it is fantastic.

But is there no way to disable line wrap? I already have "Settings -> Editor -> Display -> Readable line length" toggled off. But long lines still wrap. I'm not seeing any other option that would affect line wrapping.

I’ve started using the Plain Text Editor app by Sindre Sorhus, to display my weekly task plan.

What a beautifully simple #app this is! I love seeing the week ahead in a raw format that focuses me on the tasks, not on how pretty the #Markdown looks.

- Free
- Brain Dump mode (lets you type, but not delete)
- Word, character, and line count

The only feature I miss is a keyboard shortcut for shifting lines up and down. No big deal; I can always copy-paste.

I do like the editor in WriteFreely.

It is a simple & light-weight text editor that lets you type in markdown.

I can imagine some people, who aren't as familiar with markdown, wanting help with markdown. (Which I suspect wouldn't be a difficult feature to add.)

But if you already know markdown, then it works great.

I just found out a neat thing about footnotes in #markdown, can't resist to share: you don't need to number them yourself, write whatever text you want and it'll dynamically automate the numbering for you.

E.g.: "Footnote[^1]" can be replaced by "Footnote[^lorem]". Then in the footer, just write "[^lorem]: ipsum" instead of "[^1]: ipsum" and it'll save you from manually updating the notes numbers.

Neat, right?

I wish the indent = code block behavior would get deprecated from the #markdown specs. Triple backtick fences for blocks and single backticks for inline have code references covered, and indents could be freed again for the purposes for which they’ve always been used in prose and verse. (Markdown is a poor choice for #writing #poetry because of the indent prohibition.)

Programmers aren’t the only ones who use markdown.

Is there a way to add #citations easily to #Azure DevOps readme files in the repo?

Currently I'm using pandoc to convert bib to #markdown and then pasting them in at the bottom but is manual to say the least. Also explicit referencing of which is v.bad.

One answer is: do it in a separate file and render to readme.md using citeproc.

That still relies on me and my local machine OR building a workflow for it. I guess we could do this using auto actions... But that means doing a business case.

@gelberhut @biscotty @obsidianmd I agree with gelberhut. Folders are to organization as plaintext is to data, and are one of the keys to a files-first, future-proofing approach. #Obsidian could break and refuse to open, and I could still navigate my notes in any file manager and open and use them in any text or #markdown editor.

C’est pour nous mettre le #MarkDown dans Framapiaf avec une limite de 1 000 caractères ?

My favourite way of linking in #markdown is the "reference style", where you write the link at the bottom of the document to keep the source text legible without the necessity of rendering:

```markdown
This is a paragraph with some [outgoing link][id], written in a way that keeps the markdown source legible.

...
...
... and this is the end of the document.

[id]: https(:)//the.destination.of.the/link "and the title"
```

With #Markdown formatting (web browser view) / without it (#IceCubes app view):

@IceCubesApp I really like your app but please, could you implement Markdown formatting? Or at least show the raw text instead of removing Markdown markers? 🙏🙂

Screenshot of one of my posts about coding, it has a content warning, some normal text and some code. The code is shown as a code block with numbered lines, a grey background and a horizontal slider.
Screenshot of the same post but viewed in the IceCubes app. There is overall less lines shown because the code block is formatted as normal text, so there is no slider and it takes most of the screen. Also, a line break is missing towards the start, making it harder to understand the post.

@thelastpsion also have a look at #kramdown if you need to convert #markdown (and specific flavors) to #AsciiDoc

#Bewerbung schreiben mit #Markdown?
Mit ein wenig #pandoc und #CSS sieht das ziemlich schick aus. 😉

@Calixthe @reichenstein @drafts #pkm WYSIWYG is a misnomer when it comes to plaintext and #markdown. True WYSIWYG requires rich text and modern graphical page layout features, so that What You See on your screen is precisely What You Get when you print or export to PDF—including typefaces, point sizes, spacing, leading, kerning, margins, colors, page and line breaks, image sizes and placements, etc.

Live preview just hides the markdown characters except when your cursor is adjacent to them.

Do you use @drafts to post to weblog.lol? I’ve updated the Drafts Action so it now automatically formats frontmatter using Drafts’ Templates syntax.

Read the blog post: https://cropp.blog/2023/09/improving-my-drafts-workflow-for-my-weblog - or just grab the Action if you’re in a hurry. https://cropp.sh/drafts

Thank you to @maique and @podiboq for their work making Drafts actions for omg.lol - I’d have never figured out the API without them.
