Ah, yes. Needs support for Teleport too. Will add :D

This was so cool! Definitely the kind of article worth re-reading! Thanks for sharing.

Sorry, that wasn’t the intention of that link, but I can see how it can be misleading. Will change it to ‘Try for free’ or something clearer, soon.

Emulation probably. Haven’t looked into nvim as a backend, will check it out.

Not yet, but hopefully we can add this ability moving forward with the new version.

Jesse can speak to that, and while we did take a look at org-mode, I believe it was much later on. One of Jesse’s main inspirations was the Canon cat (ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/documentation/misc/jef_raskin/DTCJefRaskinDoc060.pdf) IIRC. Also, FoldingText was developed as the next generation platform which could be used to develop other text based applications, like TaskPaper by modifying the parser and other simple tweaks. So, in some ways it was the logical successor of TaskPaper.

It will be a paid upgrade. I'm sure we can work out how to migrate our customers who have bought FoldingText recently, but, honestly, we still have to figure out these aspects. Right now, we're heads-down on getting the beta out :).

Also, while FT is in beta it will have a significant discount.

There is currently no support for adding media to documents, as they’re just plain text. It might be something we’ll consider moving forward with the new version.

The timers can be started by using the ‘schedule’ mode. Just add ‘.schedule’ to the end of a heading and then start adding time lines underneath. The video is getting dated now, time to re-record :)

FoldingText is minimal only in terms of its UI. Behind the scenes, it parses your document, allows folding, focusing, builds an internal structure that can be queried using a query language based on XPath, and allows modes (think plugins) like todo lists, calculator, and schedules.

Would be happy to answer any questions you have, and FoldingText comes with a trial so give it a shot to see how different it is.

One of the developers of Foldingtext here. Man, I was blown away to find Foldingtext on the front page of Hacker News today :)!

We're working hard behind the scenes to release the next major version in beta. It'll add a bunch of things that we feel will take FoldingText to the next level. Follow us on twitter (@foldingtext | https://twitter.com/foldingtext) if you're interested to hear about FoldingText development.

P.S. For the Vim enthusiasts, I'm really pushing to get vim support in the upcoming FoldingText beta ;)

Re: the platform limitation.

This is something we're trying to address with the upcoming beta. You can follow us on twitter: @foldingtext, to get news about the beta when we start rolling it out.

We're still working on FoldingText :)! However, a lot of that has been behind the scenes as we're working on a new version from the ground up. We're hoping to start private beta in a couple of months.
