Note taking in Emacs with howm reddit / emacs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SeerLite · 2022-03-28 00:39 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- shryzr · 2022-03-28 01:02 Thanks for sharing. This is very interesting. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pxoq · 2022-03-28 02:50 now I need to combine hyperbole, howm and org-mode. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jcmkk3 · 2022-03-28 03:29 I'm going to look into this more, for sure. Thanks for highlighting it! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- abhixec · 2022-03-28 05:01 Sounds interesting thanks! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- olivuser · 2022-03-28 05:02 Honestly never heard of it, but I appreciate the mention :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- chandaliergalaxy · 2022-03-28 07:52 If you have org-mode, won't it suffice? I just got that it's an alternative if you feel that org-mode is clunky and you don't most of its features (according to the author's words). One big difference I see is that org-mode is meant for you to keep your notes in larger monolithic files whereas howm is more like a one- note, one-file system. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- zixx999 · 2022-03-28 12:55 Saving in case I ever get sick of org-mode ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AlanYx · 2022-03-28 13:23 I think howm makes a lot of sense for some people as a lower complexity alternative to org-roam. Since howm is a minor mode, it makes a lot of sense to use it this way. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- w0ntfix · 2022-03-28 14:42 I thought this was going to be about the [window manager](https://github.com/HarveyHunt/howm/) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 00-11 · 2022-03-28 14:45 Related: * Bookmarks with annotations. With [Bookmark+](https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/BookmarkPlus), annotations can inherit from any set of modes. And they can be indirections to separate files (instead of storing the annotation in the bookmark itself). * [LinkD](https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/download/linkd.el) - very simple hyperlinking within or among files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- trae · 2022-03-28 14:59 howm seems to do bidirectional linking really well. It's possible in org, but it's not as streamlined. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2022-03-28 15:43 [deleted]
