Finally! After years of depending on Notational Velocity it finally stopped working. Thankfully FS Notes seems to have come in to fill that void, and the development is very active.
@seishonagon oh that's right. I had heard him say somewhere he was working on the next thing. But i haven't been keeping up since i don't use a computer per se. Do you know if there will be an iPad app?
@seishonagon yeah that's what I figured as well. Oh well. If I ever get a computer again I'll check it out. But for now I'm doing everything on an iPad.
@d0gc0w It is and it isn’t? I love that Brett does what he does, but NV didn't need a fork that changed it's look (and at times functionality). A core product like NV should ship by default with OSX - easily my favourite app for years. 💔 that the development stopped on it.
@kaa I would agree. No idea why something like this wasn't there out of the box. But then again would most consumers really use it... I don't know. The Mac really is designed to be a simple consumer box right?
@d0gc0w Which is easier to use, NV or Textedit? I would say that NV is even simpler and would've gotten serious traction if included in by default. But that's a dream that will never exist :).
@kaa I don't kow dude. I've tried to explain that to people and just seems to go over their head. I don't even think many people ( that I interact with in real life) use Apple's Notes app either. Non programmers/"power users" don't really capture text unless it'sa formatted word document like Pages or MS Word. At least in my circles. And I would say most people would say TexEdit is easier to use because it looks more like a word processor unfortunately.
@adiabatic NValt is too geeky. NV though is not. It’s just text in a list. The search also creates the new file. It’s pretty ingenious really
