• Ask HN: What is that "I didn't know I needed" tool/item until you saw it here

  It could be that I'm just one of the 10,000 some days (https://xkcd.com/1053/) but there has been a few times that I've seen an article on HN and went "Umm, I didn't know I needed that, but it fits into a niche use that I have." My last one was Markdeep in a discussion about markup languages. https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/ Or Picotron (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39786984)... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• My productivity app is a never-ending .txt file

  I didn't see anyone mention Markdeep [0] yet. I started with a notes.txt file for the system I maintain. I found myself gradually adopting Markdown syntax because I need bulleted lists and headings to separate different sections. I also needed hyperlinks to documentation or StackOverflow answers. So one day I just added the Markdeep tags to the bottom of the file and renamed it to notes.md.html I still keep it... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Show HN: Durdraw – a modern ANSI art editor for modern Unix terminals

  Don't discount #2 there. I still make and use ASCII art when commenting source code. Flow charts! ASCII art diagrams can be automatically rendered to an image, too: https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• My uses for vimwiki have dried up... and it makes me a little sad

  I never tried using vim wiki because I was already using markdeep for a similar purpose. I could write markdown from the comfort of vim, then get rendering in a browser basically for free. I have toyed with the idea of creating a custom version of the vim wiki plugin which creates .md.html pages with the markdeep script code in the appropriate place.

• Bear alternatives on PC

  You might check out iA Writer. https://ia.net/ If I didn't have a Mac with access to Bear, that's probably what I'd be using. Source: about 1 year ago

• I didn't realize the community has grown so much..

  Obsidian ai (a forked version of this theme is my main, I haven't released it publicly because the ui is a clone of my favourite app iaWriter https://ia.net/, and I don't think that's ethically right to share). Source: over 1 year ago

• Tools for structuring research notes and productivity/creativity

  Ia.net: looks good to build a personal wiki with hyperlinks (which is something I def want) but I fear this can get messy after a while and can loose overview easily. Source: almost 2 years ago

• How to find and remove all finished tasks [x] at once in a single txt document?

  Thanks, it works! Could you share a link to learn more about patterns and how to use them. Unfortunately I couldn't find any info on ia.net. Source: almost 2 years ago

• iA Writer's new site is up—where's the new update?

  I went to ia.net today to see if they had updated to a new site yet, and they had! Source: about 2 years ago
