Thank you very much, Basil. That makes perfect sense.
-
Thanks, @EricB. That would seem to be the case.
-
To clarify: I understand how to insert them using the Markdown protocols as outlined by Sascha in his video post. What I don't get is how to view your notes with the images visible from inside the app. Thanks.

Sorry, one more question: would the macro work in something like Automator?
-
Hi, @Basil - that's really helpful. Thank you. I'll try what you suggest. @ctietze - the mindmap works as a sort of 'pre-outline' for the novel. It's the result of brainstorming everything that's come up in my thinking and research about the proj…

Thanks for the post on buffer notes, @sfast. Very helpful!
-
Thanks for this. I look forward very much to reading the blog post in due course.
-
Congratulations on the publication, Sascha. Have been wanting to ask this for a while: what exactly is a 'buffer note' and what role do they play in your archive? Thanks!
-
@mrcmrc Thanks for this. Very interesting stuff.

I use a pretty simple header like this: Title: ID: Tags: Citations, if there are any, go at the end in Markdown format (referring to a location in Bibdesk). And the rest is more or less freeform, depending on the topic. I don't if that helps…

Hi, guys. You describe two principal methods of connection here; to paraphrase: * Systematic: the notes are structured by the inclusion of an overview note, which links to the constituent sections of, for example, an argument or research proces…

@maclm Just out of interest: what external editor do you use?
-
Thanks, all - very helpful suggestions. I am now flying back and forth with grace...
-
Thanks, Basil. I'll give that a try in the meantime.
-
And yes, it's DEVONThink, not DevonTHINK, isn't it. Apologies. No-one likes a shouter...

Thank you, both. I've lost count of the amount of times I've started reading something, and then thought: 'Hang on - I've already read this and made notes. Now where are they...?' My implementation of the Zettelkasten method is precisely to try a…

Thanks, Sascha. That's my thinking too.

I'm also a fiction writer, and, as you mention, currently use spreadsheets to track submissions. Wolff, I like the sound of noteplan. I'll post again soon to let you know how I get on with implementing this. Thanks to all for your generosity in shar…

Great post - thank you. I'd love to hear more, though, about how you integrate nvAlT/The Archive with DevonTHINK. I've been toying with the idea of starting to use that latter, but don't want to let go of my plain text Zettelkasten. Any suggestions …
