Re: Yet another mostly happy user
I agree completely with your mail. Sometimes I am afraid to forget some items because I don't remember all the tags' name. I really need tags and folders. I try Eaglefiler (nested folders AND tags) : it tastes like Yojimbo, but it is not Yojimbo - but looks fine too. I've seen several people mention that they are afraid if they forget a tag, they'll lose an item. I don't understand. Both Tags and Collections are aids in retrieving items. They are not the only way to retreive an item: They provide additional context for the item so that you can find it more easily. I typically search for the content or title of an item when I want to fetch a specific item. I have a small number of Collections present that remind me there are things I need to work on, containing tagged and untagged items related to that task. I have a slightly larger number of Tag Collections defined. I use these to A) visually group items together for a specific task, or B) invert a relationship so I can see things by their Tag instead of trying to remember all the items. But most of my items just live in the Library. I hate organizing. Steve -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.

Re: Almost happy with Yojimbo the way it is
I'm not singling out Rhet, but there are several ideas embodied in this paragraph that bear comment: If someone from BareBones does pipe in, it's usually to say We're never going to add that feature. See previous post... This compares poorly to several other indie-Mac software lists I'm on (such as the forum for Leap and Yep, both excellent applications: http://www.ironicsoftware.com/) where the developer is happy to get feedback on what users actually want and participates in the dialogue. Let me start off by saying no matter what I, or another Bare Bones representative says, a large number of people will be unhappy. For years we said Thanks for the feedback, and we'll consider adding this functionality. Then, email every time we shipped an update we'd get a reminder email, asking why the feature wasn't in that version. Other people waited and waited for the feature to arrive, but it wasn't going to. I thought that was unfair. Now, if a feature request has a known disposition, we generally share that answer. Nested folders? No. If you _have_ to have that feature, you will be better off elsewhere. Does this compare poorly with other companies? I don't know. I prefer the honest answer, whether it makes people happy or not. Another assumption (again, not picking on Rhet) is that implementing every feature request is a good idea. If you take a step back and look at the types of requests people make, with rare exception (nested folders, smart collections, better tag management) they are particular to the requester's existing workflow. The one feature I have to have is not the one feature you have to have, or Charlie has to have, or probably more than a couple people have to have. The implied assumption that tends to go along with almost any request is that adding feature X doesn't increase the complexity of Yojimbo. That is untrue. In a past life, I spent countless hours helping novice Mac users find the files they had lost, because they had no idea where they were saving, or because they saved all their files in the Word folder, and when they updated Word, lost everything. The average computer user is overwhelmed by choices, and as simple as this sounds, every feature or menu item represents a choice. By no means am I the authority on simplicity vs. complexity, but our goal was to make Yojimbo powerful, yet simple to use. Another interesting belief carried by most power users (and I include myself in this group) is that they are representative of all users. This can't be farther from the truth. Everybody on this list sees the mailing list posts. I see those, and tech support inquiries. There are more support inquires than there are posts on this list. Way more. I can assure you that everyone on this list is head and shoulders above most customers writing in for help. If you made it this far, thanks for reading. As your reward, a summary of the popular requests, and their status: Nested folders: Sorry, no. Smart collections: Yes, near the top of the list. Better tagging interactions: Nearer the top of the list. Stuff nobody has asked for: At the top of the list. And before anyone asks why stuff nobody asked for is higher up than the one feature I have to have, remember, nobody asked us to write Yojimbo, either. Updates to other Bare Bones products: What do you think we've been doing since the last Yojimbo update? :-) Steve -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.

Re: Setting the External Editor
1. (How) Is it possible to change the default external editor? (I searched the preferences, the help and the online FAQ with no luck.) It's an external Viewer, not Editor. Any changes made outside of Yojimbo are not returned to Yojimbo. 2. Since there is no 'make plain text' option, can I just ask will Yojimbo do horrible things to my BBEdit files when I import them? Actually, look at the bottom of the Format menu for Remove Formatting. That will strip all the formatting from text pasted from rich text environments.

On the other hand, dragging the URL to Yojimbo automatically captures the title of the page (which you may or may not want).

Re: Save PDF to Yojimbo oddity

Re: Applescript to get modified date of file selected in Yojimbo
What I am trying to do is get the modified date of the item and be able to rename the item by appending the modified date to the end of the filename (but before the file extension).

Re: formatting palette not showing
The according menu entry is Format - Ruler - Show Ruler. I am not a native speaker, but for me a ruler is not very intuitive. The terminology comes from word processors. Originally, the ruler was used to set tab stops and margins. As time marched on, people started sticking things like justification controls, stylesheets, and other formatting things into it. If I hadn't seen rulers evolve over the years, I'd never think that ruler was the right word for that interface element.

Re: newbie question
Here's my question about Yojiimbo. If I'm understanding right, there's essentially only one database for the Yojimbo application. Even if I want to use Yojimbo to catalog stuff for several very different things, they will all be together when I open Yojimbo. However, I can tag them separately to differentiate them. Are there other ways that I can keep the various mutually exclusive parts of my life apart in Yojimbo? I've never managed to make any part of my life exclusive from any other part. :-) If I'm surfing the web, and I find something related to work, I don't ignore it: I stuff it in Yojimbo for attention when I'm back on the clock. Likewise, if I'm at work, and somebody mentions a great movie I should see, I don't tune it out: I Yojimbo it. One of the design principles behind Yojimbo was that you shouldn't have to switch modes (or documents) in order to enter data. In my opinion, having to decide which Library to put something in is too much decision making up front, and it reduces the chance you'll put the information into _any_ Library. Tags are one way to let you split information up, and because tags add information to an item instead of segregating items off into separate compartments, you don't incur the Where did I file that? cost when you want to find an item again. Collections are another collating mechanism, but depending on how you enter information, they can be awkward to use efficiently. -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.

Re: newbie question
However, I would still like it if you could have more than one YJ library at a time (and sync them all over a single dotmac account) so that my wife and I could have separate buckets. Given that individulal dotmac accounts are probably very often used by families of users, this seems a reasonable idea. I'd even be willing to pay for a second license to do so. The way all the parts are wired together, using .Mac and more than 1 Library is a non-starter. You might be better served with a .Mac family license, allowing you and your wife to keep separate Libraries and sync states. -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.

Re: Code Coloring Indenting in YJ
I guess that's no then! Any suggestions on what to use as an alternative searchable place to store HTML/CSS/Javascript/PHP code? There isn't much likelihood of us adding syntax coloring to Yojimbo: it's too specific of a problem. If you really want to stick with Yojimbo for storage, there are a couple choices which come to mind: print the page to Yojimbo from your preferred editor/viewer; use Xcode, and copy the colored text. If you have the appropriate setting in Font Colors, you should get styled text in your pastes, and the Quick Input window. Otherwise, I saw a code collector app somewhere which has an incredibly similar interface to Yojimbo.

Re: Sente and Yojimbo
That shouldn't be possible because Yojimbo doesn't keep a file in the file system but copies it into its database. Spotlight will find a Yojimbo-item but from the way I understand it that's more or less a link to an entry (and behind that entry is a link to the file in the database). I guees if you don't do it this way sync will break because Yojimbo can sync its own database but I guess sync services doesn't offer to sync any files in the file system (for that there's stuff like chrono sync). I would like to see it as well that I can link from Bibdesk to PDFs in Yojimbo but that's not possible because of the structure of Yojimbo. I don't know the other products you folks are talking about, but if they can refer to an item by URL, you can create a Yojimbo URL with the Edit-Copy Item Link menu item. This will give you a URL of the form: x-yojimbo-item://3D2206E9-8110-47F0-A113-51AA5E2C8597 Otherwise, your observation that Yojimbo copies its items into the database is correct, and they cannot be seen by other applications without a lot of trickery on their part. -- Steve Kalkwarf [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.
