![]() ![]() I have been hesitating about DevonThink for this kind of application, but I am not sure that is what it can do. That also brings the possibility that an alias one intends to create might already exist, so that should flagged by the system immediately. So, for a zettelkasten, I think most notes should have aliases associated with them. When I start a new note I want to find other notes I can link to, and depends on the concept the note deals with (I use # tags for that), as well as the words used in the text which is where Freelinks/Alias/Whatever comes in. To give a simple example, the note Home that I use as a starting point to navigate doesn’t have any aliases nor does it need any.Īh, but I am thinking about my zettelkasten, and in principle all notes in there are equal: there is no hierarchy and each note should have links to other notes. It all depends on the role of that note in your system. I have plenty of notes with no aliases and other with dozens of them. I mean, it displays them, but in slow motion. As it is right now, it can barely display my folder of notes (around three thousand files) with no connections between them (since they rely on auto wiki links). It would have to able to draw connections without the need of double brackets style links AND handle the enormous amount of connections that would pop up (which I am not sure it could do). I think the main problem would be for the graph view. Then it sorts and organizes them, adding the results to the bottom of each note or to a special metadata field. ![]() In DEVONthink I do this with an applescript that searches for occurrences of the title (and the aliases) of each note in the other notes. It all depends on the developers, actually. So, to make them completely useful you have to add square brackets amnually, which I find a bit laborious Would those unbracketed links be shown in the backlinks? In TiddlyWiki, Freelinks marks words as links without the use of square brackets, and those links, although clickable and therefore usable, do not show up as backlinks. ![]()
