Re: Leo as Personal Information Manager: multiple nodes in the body pane?

2016-11-04 Thread 'Terry Brown' via leo-editor
I think this makes sense, and has been addressed a couple of times. First a terminology issue: the body pane edits the body of a node, what you're looking for is a pane which lets you edit the bodies (and maybe headlines) of multiple nodes at once, which would a pane with a different name,

Leo as Personal Information Manager: multiple nodes in the body pane?

2016-11-04 Thread Arjan
Hi! I'm getting started with Leo as a personal information manager, and I like it a lot. The option to have clones of notes which stay in sync is very powerful. I do have a usability problem with it: I very often have small sections, e.g. a paragraph, that I want to be able to reuse somewhere

My rate of programming has accelerated greatly recently. In part, this is because I have realize just how big a privilege it is to be able to continue my life's work. But Leonine tools are also a big part of the picture. I use the following tools constantly. I won't rank them, but each

Leo as a stash manager

2016-11-04 Thread Edward K. Ream
Copying whole trees (normal copy, not cloned copy) is a much better way of stashing code that using git stash. I found this out just now when I forgot to copy the new Target class. I had used git stash on some failing code that contained the Target class, so I did a git stash pop. That

I am writing this in the middle of the night, too excited to sleep. This is an Engineering Notebook post. Feel free to ignore. Here, I'll write down my initial plan for a remarkable collapse in the complexity of the code. I'll also record the genesis of this idea. I know from experience that
