I had installed fzf some time ago. But default key ** for invoking fzf did not work with fzf.

Upon searching, I came across couple of options. Of those, I chose the one with active development.

As of this writing, the last commit was 11 days ago. Very active, I would say. 😄

Installation instruction said fisher install PatrickF1/fzf.fish but when tried, I got an error:

fisher: unknown flag or command "install"

🤔

I tried fisher add which seemed like closest option to install.

I’m leaning more and more towards text based workflow.

Earlier I enabled twittering-mode in Doom Emacs, and tweeted from Emacs. How 🆒 is that.

But that is when I realized that twitter has lots of URLs. If I visit a URL from my Twitter feed, it opens up in external browser by default.

I have two problems with that.

1. My flow gets disturbed.
2. The browser already has gazillion links open. Once I go there, I get distracted.

Opening links within emacs addresses both these (I think. Too early to comment)

Today while I was browsing thru The Tao of tmux - I came across a better pager called most

I think it is a play on default pagers called less and more

Unfortunately, the official website almost makes it impossible to find stuff about it.

Documentation is non existent.

I found elsewhere that most linux distro make it available via their package manager.

I did not find any mention of macOS though.

Today I spent some more time modifying the IndieFeed theme

As I mentioned earlier, I started using hugo modules instead of git submodule from the beginning. One of the downside of it was I could not preview my changes without pushing the changes to github first.

Sometimes that might be OK, most times it is not.

How do theme developers work in such scenario. Turns out there is a hack just for that.

I came across Dooble browser via one of the Hacker news post.

The browser use Qt library and thus biased towards Linux. Or so I thought. There is a pre-built dmg file for macOS.

It worked well in short test-run I did.

I wish there was a way to set it as a default browser, so I could have tested it more thoroughly.

FWIW, it did not register itself as a browser with macOS – which seems OS specific requirement.

I have been using Dendron for some time now as a PKM tool. I started when it was using 11ty to generate site out of the notes.

It would create the site in docs folder, using Dendron: Site Build in VSCode I had mapped the docs folder to a git repo.

I would push ready-made site to git, and netlify deploy was a no-op

Then recently they switched to next.js and publishing changed a lot. (Personally I liked the old look and feel, but that is besides the point)

While reading the documentation on Espanso’s main site, I noticed a Search bar feature.

To be sure, after some time, one is unlikely to remember all the shortcuts one has added, along with ones that came with packages.

So search bar is a welcome feature. But shortcut mentioned on the site Alt+Space did not work. I was not surprised, because this key combination triggers Raycast on my machine.

So I went looking for way to change the hotkey, and reached an issue which mentioned that search bar is a feature of 2.x Alpha 💡

Just as I was getting to know espanso, I came across a brand-new version of espanso that is way better that this (0.7.6) version, now called Legacy version. Read about the new version here

I have left the following as is, for posterity

It surprised me at first to notice that this site looks different based on the time of the day. Upon debugging (aka using Browser Developer tools) I realized that the CSS has media query for prefer-color-theme Learn more here to learn more.

I made some minor changes to the theme, but I could only test one variant based on the time of the day.

That when I remembered that I had set system auto theme for firefox, which enabled dark mode during the evening/night.

Almost a decade ago, I came across Workflowy.

It is a simple outliner program. Think of a simple white paper of unlimited length, and digital.

That is all it was. No other frills.

One of its shortcomings was no mobile client. One could hack to get it working on mobile, but there was no app. Then I came across Dynalist.

I used it for a long time. I have it installed on my mobile even today.
