![]() I also add photos in DEVONthink quite frequently-which I avoided doing in Day One for fear of bogging down the app.įor what it’s worth I have also developed an AppleScript script which reproduces the form of the imported Day One header and prompts for location and weather (adding the time automatically) so that if I do eventually abandon Day One (or Day One abandons me!) I shall be able to reproduce in DEVONthink entries in the format of the 19,000 entries I have already imported into DEVONthink from Day One. When entries are imported into Day One I update the links to work in DEVONthink (using an AppleScript script) and hashtags are converted into YAML front matter (also using AppleScript). I add to each Day One entry during the course of the day, create links to other entries in Day One as appropriate and use hashtags for some entries (like #significant, #holiday, etc.). In general terms, my Day One to DEVONthink workflow is now so seamless that, for me, it works really well and just suits my style of journalling. For example, it’s useful to have the timeline displayed beside the entries and I also like auto addition of the location (which I suspect DEVONthink could do as well, in fairness), weather (which DEVONthink would not easily do, I think) and time of the entry (i.e., updated to the time of the last entry of the day). I find-especially now that I’ve given up using sync in Day One-that the Day One format for journalling is quite convenient. In brief, it’s because I’ve developed a system that works really well for my style of journalling. Why work harder when you can work smarter, have fun and avoid aggravation!Īh, I’ve been asked that before on DEVONthink forum and it’s a perfectly fair question, of course. Import data from the third-party tool to the staging table in. In this example, you’ll complete the steps that appear in the following image: Image source: Author. You use standard programs to import and post the journals corresponding to entries made in the GLINTERFACE table. Sort of reminds me of why I encourage people to buy Apple devices. This example uses the table GLINTERFACE as the open interface. How much of the web would you estimate is done in markdown? I use to have a very basic knowledge of html. Now I’ll understand when David and Steve are going on about markdown! (Especially writing I find is far easier on a computer and I cannot type). I initially learned on a Mac so I have fallen behind but that’s ok. ![]() ![]() I love them but I am reacquainting myself with working, writing, playing on a computer. I have been using iPads, iPhones, Ipods for quite some time. I had AppleWorks and ClarisWorks before it down really well. I’m a sucker for an attractive UI.īut I imagine that a simple format would be conducive to what you are writing instead of fiddling with the format, unless you are quite familiar with the app. One of the apps I downloaded today is NotePlan which apparently uses Markdown. I have a subscription to the bundle SetApp for $10/mo (terrific bargain). Life is more than just words With MacJournal, you are not limited to text, you can add any kind of content to your journal entries. ![]()
