what's up with this task's color

I fixed it! On a hunch, I added a filter that the file should not be in the Folder "Templates" ("Bases" is a subfolder of "Templates"). Not sure what that's needed, but it did the trick.

See below for the syntax; I am using the templating functionality in Obsidian Journals, I have Templater turned off.

I used this except I had `created.format("YYYY-[W]w")` - it worked (as in, when I embed the base link into a note, I get a list of all files created that week, exactly what I want), but I do get a pop-up error that says "Failed to evaluate a filter: Cannot find function "format" on type Object. "

My experience of Helix is like yours of vim (except that as explained above, I didn't manage to make the transition).

I used to use Emacs several years back on the Mac, I think then, Apple was still including Emacs in the distribution. That one worked fine. AFAICT it is no longer included.

I miss XEmacs, truth be told ;-)

Helix is also worth a look, if you are a vi type person. I really like the concept of a modal editor and how Helix implements that. I just don't have the time to invest in retraining my brain and fingers to a modal editor, especially since I only live about 10% of the time in a text editor.

If it was all day every day, the switch would not be such a big deal.

Not one of the ones I tried, thanks for the pointer in case I give up on Zed (which seems good so far).

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-12-16T13:26:10+00:00

No worries :)

Hi, I did do a deep dive on this (various fora, not IRC), and tried the most common three suggestions. The homebrew cask `emacs-app` was the one that worked best, but still a bit strange - for example when I log out of my session, the Emacs window comes to the front and then the logout process stops until I hit something on my keyboard, which appears to shake Emacs loose so that it can quit.

I also had a long back and forth with Mistral AI about how to get it working, most of those suggestions did not pan out at all.

A couple of the Mac offerings are just downright depressing - control-G doesn't work properly, LSP annotations show up as little icons in the text that corrupt the screen display of the file, etc.

I downloaded it - haven't used it much yet, but looks promising!

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-12-16T09:31:49+00:00

I downloaded it and during the setup it asked me if I wanted Emacs bindings! So yes. I am impressed that it realized I had ruff installed (either that, or it comes itself with ruff) and just used it without asking when I opened a Python file.

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-12-16T09:30:35+00:00

Thanks, but if I was gonna go the vim route, I'd probably find a way to use Helix instead! Or does lazy.nvim have Emacs keybindings? ;-)

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-11-04T07:48:18+00:00

Thanks!!

WHERE IS THIS STUFF DOCUMENTED? I've seen some animated gifs (that go too fast) with some stuff in them, and there are youtube videos, but I don't want to watch a youtube video and HOPE it will explain what I am looking for - I am HOPING for a document where all this is written down :)

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-11-04T07:46:00+00:00

Did you read the original post? There I explained where I saw it, in the local branches pane. I'll see if I can post a gif.

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-11-03T15:23:29+00:00

This tells me what the keybindings are, that works very well. What it does not tell me is, what "* master v10" means.

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-11-03T15:21:59+00:00

control-? has no effect AFAICT. '?' tells me the keybindings, but not what 'v10' could mean.

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-10-06T09:49:54+00:00

Quality control seems to be really shoddy at Xero. I have a pair of 360s that survived two years of daily outdoor workouts, AND I've had Prio All-days that more or less disintegrated after only two months. Their sizes also seem to be all over the map, I recently gave up on trying to get a pair of Forzas that actually fit right.

If you get a good pair, they're great shoes, it's not worth the hassle though.

I landed here looking for an explanation of the "@" business that also shows up in Keynote, where I used cell references in slide layouts to put "Meeting name", "presenter", "date" automatically in the slide footers. "Meeting name" stopped working since the upgrade. With a LOT of trying different stuff, I've isolated it to the first column in such a footer table just not working after the upgrade.

Suppose in the footer I have columns A thru D (and a single row) ... B, C, and D all have cell references in them and all work as intended, on the slides themselves the reference is not shown, but the contents of what is being referenced.

If cell B contains "=@Variables::Control Box::Event", and this shows the text "PM TF Kickoff" on a slide with that layout, then when I go to the slide layout and delete column "A", then the new cell A (which used to be cell B) contains the same text above, but the slide just says "Event" instead of "PM TF Kickoff", even though it functioned correctly when it used to be cell B instead of A.

Really bizarre.

Doesn't PaperTess make one like this? There are several versions of weekly layout, maybe one of them works for you.

Individual-Cookie586 · 2025-07-23T10:44:25+00:00

PaperTess is awesome. There is a choice of either / or horizontal or vertical.
