sweebez 1 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I love the idea of a cloud-based note taking system, and I currently use Notepad++ to make lists which I store on my desktop. I'd love to go the extra step and simply write/edit the note in Notepad++ and save to the cloud, removing the clutter of text files on my desktop. Is there anything right now that lets me "log-in" to Evernote via Notepad++ so that I can Open/Save files to Evernote as easily as I Open/Save files to my desktop? If not, would anybody be interested in it? Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,024 Posted June 2, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted June 2, 2013 Hi - welcome to the forums. Thanks for the thought, but... Is there anything right now that lets me "log-in" to Evernote via Notepad++ so that I can Open/Save files to Evernote as easily as I Open/Save files to my desktop? - No If not, would anybody be interested in it? - Don't think so - Evernote already has a passable text editor, and logging in via something else just adds a layer of complication.

sweebez 1 Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 Thanks for your reply but for me, and others I've asked, passable isn't good enough. Notepad++ is built for a variety of users while Evernote really isn't. Thanks for your input though! Link to comment
Xgenei 4 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 HEY! A product like Notepad++ offers a ton of editing features that does not even show up in the text. Just the ability to move lines or sections up and down makes it a spoiler for list work. A split screen for stereo editing, syncro-comparison, a document map for crissakes! OOBA JOOBA! Hey - no fancy work. This can be automated in a buzz light year split fraction of a second.Just open Notepad++ with your fav plugins and have it sitting there. Cut the text out of EN, and paste it over there. When you're done, cut and paste it back. YOU make a great automation instrument when the workflow is this easy. (And did I mention markdown with preview?) It's all OOBA JOOBA! Don't ever let the 99.9% tell you "no." Link to comment
RobertJSawyer 167 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I'd certainly be interested in the ability to link other editors to the Windows Evernote client. I use the Markdown Here extension in Firefox to get better editing capabilities in the Evernote Web interface, and I'd love to have the ability to write in Markdown in Notepad++ and have it save to (and render as rich text in) Evernote Windows.

Xgenei 4 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Well that's crossing the line. I say take the 80/20 approach and just stick plain text markdown in there for safekeeping (and organization) or keep your note formatting simple using the in-board. I'm onto the secret now - and this is it. Until (probably) hell freezes over. Link to comment
inetkid 0 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Evernote is like living in self-sustaining remote island striving to have everything; while other apps live connecting to other best apps. Link to comment
