Always heard about org mode but was intimidated by emacs when I could barely manage vi/vim (sorry guys). Installed a plugin for org-mode for Sublime Text today and… shit, why didn’t I try this sooner?
I have thousands of text files with horrible organization, thrown around multiple directories, no common naming scheme, no hierarchy, no unified notation, just ramblings and a barely marginal attempt at organization using === as title markers. I have links and ideas buried deep and I didn’t want to use a third party tool “just for managing text”.
Well, my eyes are open, and thus I’m euphoric, enlightened by its brilliance. I must rewrite all my stuff in org-mode.
Reading the docs it feels close to markdown, but most markdown implementations have a much simpler format for code blocks with syntax specified:
```javascript
$var = “ooh, cool code, bro.”;
```
Will turn into:
(Though lemmy-ui doesn’t seem to support syntax highlighting.)
