Re: A Leo relative in the wild: Trilium Notes

2024-04-25 Thread Christoph
I am under the impression that CherryTree 
(https://www.giuspen.net/cherrytree/) has implemented something similar 
recently:

https://github.com/giuspen/cherrytree/issues/1222
Not sure if it is exactly the same or a variant. Also, Zotero has a 
similar mechanism.
Of course, dealing with hierarchical data sooner or later requires a 
mechanism that allows to put data in more than one branch of the 
hierarchy so this seems to be a logical step. However, Leo has taken 
this step more than 20 years ago and made it its fundamental design feature.

Hello Leonistas,

I've been exploring a program the last few weeks that seems like it might
be an answer to a long felt wish: to have a Leo-like experience for editing
and managing a rich text and media notes knowledgebase. That program
is *Trilium
Notes* . It's the only application I've
encountered that uses clones in the same sense Leo does and is rooted in a
tree, branch, and node hierarchy graph. It also has executable nodes
(scripting), though unfortunately for my preferences not in python. (Oh
well, one can't ever have it all, right? ;-) I haven't had this much fun
playing with and learning a new software program since encountering Leo
I-can't-remember-how-many years ago.

I'm encountering Trilium at an awkward moment in its life: just as the
primary author is stepping aside. That said, there's a large and
enthusiastic community which has formed *Trilium Next
 *to carry things on. At present they don't
seem to have a gravity center -- imagine twenty people standing at a
doorway emitting "oh no dear madam, after you" -- I believe/hope this will
get sorted soon though.

I don't know if there will come a day when Leo and Trilium share more than
some key architectural and function design decisions, but I figure at least
the communities should be aware of each other. (I'll be composing a similar
"hey did you know about Leo?" message for the Trilium folks too).

Felix, you might be interested to know that Trilium is written in
javascript and the major effort at the moment is converting it to
typescript. They seem to be blazing along on that front. Perhaps there are
some tools or libraries that could be extracted/shared.

cheers,
-matt

Re: I plan no further work with Rust

2024-04-23 Thread Christoph
Rust feels a little bit like Perl. I came across something that looks a 
bit more like Python: zig (https://ziglang.org/)  I admit, I still found 
no time to actually try but the concept made me feel like "I want to 
learn this language" (and I should add that I felt like this for the 
first time in years). May be I'm just over-enthusiastic for some reason 
but may be it's really outstandingly good.

I now know what programming in Rust feels like. Rust has its place, but I
have no further interest in it :-) Python allows me to concentrate on
ideas, and that's all I care about.


Onward to other adventures!

task plugin not connected to do/undo

2014-08-15 Thread Christoph
When assigning status, priority or time (as offered by the task-plugin) 
that cannot be undone. I suppose this is a bug?


Kind regards

Re: task plugin not connected to undo-mechanism

Sorry, the previous title was completely misleading.
BTW I checked it with the the master branch from the git repository.

Leo and Org-Mode

2014-08-14 Thread Christoph

Hi,

Today I managed to import, modify and write within Leo an org-mode file 
I had previously created with Emacs. I must say that I'm impressed. 
Great work!


When importing an org-mode file the @auto-org-mode directive does not 
get inserted automatically. However, without having it, the original 
org-mode-file is written in a way that makes it unusable for Emacs. So 
one has to insert @auto-org-mode by hand. I assume there is a reason for 
that but for the moment I don't understand why. Wouldn't it be more 
convenient? After all when importing the org-mode file Leo automatically 
recognizes that it is an org-mode file. So why not acknowledging that 
fact by inserting an @auto directive. (Sorry, if the answer is obvious, 
I just have begun to experiment with Leo). Thanks in advance.


Kind regards

Christoph

Internal (Wiki-like) link support in Leo?

2014-08-14 Thread Christoph
I consider to migrate from Orgmode to Leo so I would be curious what 
options do I have for internal links (i.e. Wiki-like links linking 
within a Leo doc or within Leo docs, apart from creating clones).


Two ways I guess:

- using restructuredText

- writing a plugin defining them


Anything I have overlooked? Thanks in advance

Christoph
