Use Vim as a Note Taking Platform

April 23rd, 2008 | 2 Comments

As soon as I saw this video, possibilities began to run through my mind. This past semester, I’ve taken all my notes in TiddlyWiki, which has served me well. I know I won’t be abandoning the platform for all purposes, but I wonder how effective taking notes for my classes in Vim could be. Especially as a music student…I can already see how using this in conjunction with ABC music notation could be pretty cool.

  1. I’ve been a musician most of my life, and a Linux geek for almost ten years now, and hadn’t heard of ABC notation. Thanks for that.

  2. No problem, Kevin! If you’re into making music on Linux, check out http://linuxmusicians.com. It’s a small forum, but we’re growing!
