Omniflow.io becomes Dynalist.io
5/9/2016
Check out the Dynalist blog: http://blog.dynalist.io/
Uploads images, now has a very fast nValt sort of tag searching. I shifted over to Dynalist at work, and haven't touch Workflowy in some time. Dy...
Kind of off-topic, but in my new job I'm tracking a lot of international privacy issues. An increasing number of companies refuse to do business with American cloud-based businesses. Why? Because the ...
Interesting. My only other suggestion is Freemind/Freeplane, which allows for an insert next on the left, and trends to be more parsimonious of screen real estate. But I'm curious to see what else pop...
Smartdown II version 1.0 released today
3/21/2016
I forgot to mention this coupon code: 1BA3F030 and get 20% off until March 31st. I've been playing with it some more and it's very nice. As Dr. Andus once mentioned, there's a trade-off between the po...
Smartdown II version 1.0 released today
3/15/2016
Available for $29.00 from Aflava.com. At that, perhaps a little pricey, but a complete rewrite of a good product into an even better one. Again, a markdown editor with code folding and snippets. Toggl...
Thanks. Two excellent choices I will follow up on. Like most of you, I'm an outliner enthusiast. But sometimes, we need an enterprise solution, and I'm sure that many of us have found ourselves lookin...
And if this is getting too specific for the general list, please email me directly. jlarue [at] ala [dot] org.
Hmm. If I understand you correctly, we can buy multiple licenses. But can they work simultaneously with the same data file?
Interesting, thank you. Do you support multiusers? And what will your license fee be for that?
In my new job, we track censorship activity, mostly within the United States, but also internationally. The information comes to us in several ways:

SmartDown
2/15/2016
I spent an hour or so with the beta version, and SmartDown II is quite different from the first. The screenshots Dr. Andus links to tell the tale. Although I haven't used either, the Snippets look a l...
Is there any particular advantage to this over just using another Cloud-based up, such as SimpleNote? It would still be available on multiple devices, have a tested sync strategy, and support markdown...
Cloud Outliner 2 for OS X
1/22/2016
CarbonFin is still a really good single pane outliner. And it has several ways to move data to other programs.
Likewise, SimpleMind and iThoughts are excellent mindmap programs, which also move data ...
I started to say that I'm getting simpler:
- Google Tasks as a multi-device way to capture my modest to dos
- Google Calendar to manage the calendar
- SimpleNote for most non-private notes
- Keeper (...

Beginning to see the light with org-mode

Prion, many thanks. I don't know if I'll investigate SPACEMACS or not, but you certainly put up some thought-provoking defenses, and I did a little follow-up reading that was most interesting. I appre...
Virtual machines for CRIMPers
12/20/2015
And I've been running a laptop that came with Windows 7. I run some Linux distros on it virtually, but believe, from a security point of view, that it's smarter to do it the other way around. Windows ...
Virtual machines for CRIMPers

I haven't tried this yet, but it's on the to do list.

Beginning to see the light with org-mode
12/16/2015
Dr. Andus, I've been thinking about your question: How long does it take to get to proficient with org-mode?
The short answer is, "I don't know. I'm not proficient yet," and I'm at about 50 hours. An...
Beginning to see the light with org-mode
12/12/2015
pandoc-mode is genius. Thank you.
Of course, just as I thought I was making progress, I'm back to these odd differences. Windows markdown-mode now works great. Linux, on the other hand, still won't m...

CRIMPing emacs (a field report)
WHAT I WANTED
* A capable markdown editor
* Good editing commands
* The ability to fold subheadings and text
* The ability to navigate and rearrange by subtree
* The ...
Beginning to see the light with org-mode

You're right, Mark. You CAN fold and unfold. That's great, and I was just about to be convinced this was the answer. But on my Windows and Linux installation, the alt-arrow (move paragraph) and shift-...

Another six hours spent on emacs. But I figured out how to find and install "packages" that allow for markdown-mode, preview (on Linux, I can't find an easy way to do the preview on Windows), and with...
Missed this the first time around. You perhaps know that nvpy (Notational Velocity Python) is available for Linux. Not sure if it's the system you're looking for, but it works.
Mindly for iphone, ipad
12/1/2015
As usual, others have explored before me. Mindly just showed up on Android, and I have to say that its rotary mindmap is brilliant. The UI is easy and intuitive, and this spatial orientation uses even...
