Try Livescribe. I've been using it for years & I can sort of CTRL-F (CMD-F) my notes. I usually export notes to people. I'm surprise more technologies like livescribe doesn't exist.

OMG, I can't believe I forgot about these smart pens! I remember reading about one ~15 years ago and thinking "who would ever need this?". And somehow I never came across them again, wow.
It might actually be a game changer for my notes/sketches!
Thank you!

Read that and wondered why you would struggle with moving the cursor one character forward. Then realized that I live in Emacs and that you had meant something else;)

This is one of the advantages of macOS, all the familiar GUI shortcuts live on the command key.
Not unrelated: Readline/emacs shortcuts work almost everywhere, which is to say that Ctl-F is forward in this very text buffer.
Not that I use it, but I do use Ctl-A and Ctl-E a fair amount.
I do like sketching ideas on paper, can't do it as fast on a computer. I tried the Note 9 with its stylus, it's rather good, but the screen is too small.
