An attempt to build the simplest possible, text-based, Memex implementation.
The memex is an imaginary machine introduced by Vannevar Bush in his 1945 essay As We May Think.
The concept is very similar to that of zettelkasten, but with the added feature of trails, linear collections of connected notes, useful for making drafts for longer texts by trailing multiple atomic notes.
- On some operating systems, journals and trails might fail to be saved to
disk unless their
journalandtrailssubfolders already exist. If this is the case, create the subfolders manually. - The text editing mode doesn't support newlines. When you press return, it's displayed as a space. The newlines will be displayed correctly in the view mode.
- Trails aren't fully implemented yet.
- Some options in the main menu don't actually lead to any page, the software just hangs.
