Hi Prot, Glad you like my little folly. Theme-buffet is proper food compared to my fast-food version. Happy for you to add a link to the Ef Themes manual. I am not releasing this formally and will leave it on GitHub as is. Regards P:)

Hi folks, I just created a frivolous minor mode to randomly change between Ef Themes. https://github.com/pprevos/disco-ef-themes P:) -- Dr Peter Prevos

Hi Prot, I have not yet written release notes for anything I develop. Perhaps it is a habit I should start. P:)

Hi folks, I have just updated the denote-explore package: https://github.com/pprevos/denote-explore It does three things: 1. Summary statistics: Count and visualise keywords and note types 2. Random walks: Generate new ideas using serendipity 3. Network visualisation: Visualise your Denote network of links It contains a rudimentary network visualisation function, relying on the R language. I will need some D3.js expertise to improve the

Hi Prot, Perhaps a section in the Denote manual covering exporting Org and Markdown files would be useful. You can use this as you see fit: Exporting Denote notes ────────────────────── When exporting Denote notes to, for example, a website or PDF, there is a risk that the same file name is used with a new extension. This can be problematic because it creates files with

Hi Nobiot and relict007, I am using the Melpa version and just checked the GitHub version. Apparent I wasted my time worrying ... :) Please ignore my email. Perhaps the text and code I wrote about exporting would be good to add to the manual to prevent the duplicate ID issue in the first place. Apologies to waste your time.

Hi Nobiot, An attachment can be anything, they are not generated with Denote but manually. For example, I could take a photo today and call it: 20230514T175032--kangaroos__nature.jpg or I scan attachments for a meeting and call them 20230430T172742--master-class-induction__magic.pdf, video files, audio recordings etc etc. An attachment can be anything that I like to keep within the Denote ecosystem. There are also text files, such as R and Fountain scripts, that I save using this format. I save these in subfolders of my denote-directory, but that is not

Hi Prot, I did a fair bit of research on this issue so this is a lengthy email (plain text export from Org mode). 1 Summary of the issue ══════════════════════ • Denote can create and manage notes in three formats (Org, Markdown and plain text) • The file naming convention can also be applied to other file types, such as other plain text formats, PDFs, images, video or audio

Hi relict007, Thanks for writing these caching functions, could be useful in my efforts to visualise Denote networks. Regards P:)

Hi fellow Denoters, I have found an alternative for denote-get-path-by-id that circumvents issue duplicate identifiers (such as exported versions) by providing the user with options when this is the case. This solution lets me link to PDF, video and other files with Denote identifiers, instead of only to txt, md and org. It also serves as a warning that a duplicate file is available that might need to be cleaned-up. (defun denote-get-path-by-id (id)
