![]() However, ideas like the one in this post got me rethinking. I have embraced the plaintext and WYSIWYM philosophy a long time ago. The subscription model weights in when thinking about its flaws too. Ulysses has been helping me with my thesis but I don't find its organization useful for long academic writing and I don't like the hiding of files. Using the library does not work because it only allows organizing by name or modification date. And I quickly leave it when the text starts requiring structure. I was about to ask around a similar question and found this post. I didn't go into the output possibilities but they include.I didn't mention that files can be called by other files and this way you can have sections and rearrange within a section and between sections.The reordering of the sections is easily done with keyboard commands moving whole lines up and down.I've found convenient attaching the MacBook to an external monitor and running The Archive in two window mode on the monitor and Marked2's live preview on the MacBook's monitor. with some drawn from preexisting zettel and some created on the fly. Other essays would have lots more sections and subsections. It is taking me an inordinate amount of time to write because it is mixed with learning. It is mostly a dry run and a learning exercise. This particular essay is short and I expect it will have only 2 or 3 files.Thank Brett Terpstra, the creator of Marked2.Here is a screenshot of the menu item that calls Marked2 from the zettel in The Archive and initiates the live preview. I forgot to mention a bunch of important things, some of which are mentioned below -ġ. Fumbling with the microphone, stuttering, um-ing which I removed the vast majority in post-processing.Īfter editing and rewatching this several times and almost giving up and saying the hell with it all, here it is. Once again I removed all dough that I'm an idiot. I'm sure many of you will see errors or gaps in my understanding. I'm a beginner and my workflow likely will develop more and change. I've created a short video show roughly a workflow starting to develop around the live preview and the ability to write in small (atomic) fragments and use an outline to rearrange them. Using just The Archive and Marked2, I think I have come close to 'Scrivenizing' a workflow for writing anything longer than a blogpost using preexisting zettel and mixing with new zettel. Subatomic: "Scrivenings" mode behavior using The Archive and Marked2.
