OS X: edit notes locally using Markdown, LaTeX, plantuml; create mind maps, highlight code, etc.

[fusion 0]

I have to admit that I was impressed by Marxico. I did not, however, wish to have to go through a third party web interface to edit my notes.

Being on OS X, I decided to see how far I could go by interacting with the heavy client. Turns, out, after many headaches, the answer is: quite far.

 

This script will let you edit your notes in vim, but you can substitute your favorite editor via an easy modification.

 

Have a look: https://github.com/Fusion/EditENinVI  -- the screen capture gives you a pretty good idea of what kind of result you can get.

You can check the corresponding enriched markdown entry here: https://github.com/Fusion/EditENinVI/blob/master/examples/screenshot_source.txt

 

This does not come with "batteries included!" -- you will have to install  a few things. At the very least you will need 'multimarkdown'

 

Let me know what you think. Hope this helps you as much as it's helped me so far!

Oh well, Evernote appear to have changed their native interface. This is not working anymore.

looked promising

Is the app now incompatible?
