I tried it briefly years ago too, and don't recall why I quit. I think it
did have bugs at that time.
What format are files stored in?
Is it 'forward compatible'?
I haven't yet downloaded the free version now, but very much like the
capability of a variety of types of links. That's a big part
I just found the MindForger project. This actually looks like it might do

Hi, I just stumbled upon this particular post, but didn't read the whole
thread. But from what I sense here, you are talking about problems that
have been solved by another product that has been dicussed cursorily

Thank you Edward, that helps. I can sense that I'm not going to really get
it until I do it and find the real world benefits in my own world. I will
begin.

In an acyclic graph, a node may have multiple parents.
In Leo, all such nodes are clones. They ha

It's not too hard to grasp the basics, @andyjim. A graph is a set of nod
Well, this gives me a lot to think about. I've been more or less assuming
the idea of one zettel/one node as being a limiting one, but perhaps it's
the opposite, given all the capabilities of a node, hardly any of which I
am familiar with. And that's what I need to do: dig in and get familiar

Not "kinda" for free. It's *completely *free for users. It's one of Leo's
essential features.
This didn't *happen* for free behind the scenes :-)

Yes. This is perfectly possible. LeoPyRef.leo contains thousands of nodes,
each containing source code.
Look, I can't stress this enough. Leo is the ultimate filing cabinet.
"Boxes" can contain other b

Well, yes, that's what I've been been envisioning. Having thousands of
them - whether they are represented as Leo nodes or some other way - will
require us to be smart at comi
A node for each zettel? Thousands of them?

Thanks for being patient with this non-programmer. And I'm glad I stumbled

Speaking for myself, with my use case, where the system is for thoughts, I
want as little clutter and distraction as possible, which is the main
reason I’ve never even used markdown. When I’m thinking and writing my
