Hi.
I started using Ulysses on my Macbook for a new project. As I have the iPad with me more often than the Macbook, I got the iPad version, too, in order to sync my library through iCloud.

Search-as-you-Type
8/10/2015
If you hadn't written "modern alternative", I would have suggested InfoSelect. For me, it's the prototype of search-as-you-type PIM. But I can't recommend buying the current edition (neither the one b...
Outlienrs/Task Managers for Mail

Ken.
I'd say the AutoArchive settings are less than ideal. Removing e-mails you still need to work on does not make sense.
If you can: Change the AutoArchive settings and keep important e-mails/fold...
Hi.
In Windows I use Greenshot (http://getgreenshot.org/).

Synology Note Station
5/24/2015
Thanks Bill.
I just checked: Note Station is also available for my DS115j NAS. I'll install it after my holidays. This could be the easiest way to replace Evernote as notetaker on Win/OSX/iOS.
Best ...
Airstory

Hi.
Might be interesting: http://prelaunch.airstory.co/
AIRSTORY IS HOW WRITERS CREATE OUTLINES
Import from Evernote
Capture clippings from the web
Add images, video, audio and text

We use Scapple for that. But you need a really big screen for your 5 columns. :-)
Export options are RTF and OPML (and PDF and TXT).
Kanban Kit
5/6/2015
I like the idea behind Personal Kanban: Doing one thing, and one thing only; and keep yourself reminded to to that.
For while, I added a Kanban "board" to my todo list in LibreOffice Calc. But that d...

Hi Bob.
THAT Mini would be sufficient for Indesign and Devonthink, don't know about Swift. Have you checked the refurbished products in the Apple online store?
Any monitor would do. For older monitor...

DenkWerkZeug (DWZ)

Thanks for pointing us to DenkWerkZeug.
What is it that happens when you double-click the application in Windows?
And have you ever used ConnectedText - and how does DenkWerkZeug compare to that?

Hi Jim.
1. Outlook 2013 for Mac is almost the same as Outlook 2013 for Windows (except for the looks and the keyboard shortcuts). It is much better and more stable than Outlook 2011 for Mac.
2. You k...
Thanks a lot.
Apart from the usual suspects, I find Hemingwayapp and Polishmywriting interesting. I'll give the a try in the next weeks - I just took on a job editing technical articles in English.

This review (http://t3n.de/news/ulysses-ios-markdown-editor-598758/ - German only) says the things missing from release 1 are:

Overcoming Overload?

Ken.
What you describe is a situation where no tool can help:
"when tasks and complex items in need of attention crop up faster than I can enter them. And, even if they are entered, all I see is a ...
Updated to Yosemite
2/9/2015
I don't use iCloud (nor do I use Onedrive). Sorry, Franz
No problems here with Yosemite on a Mac Mini and a Macbook Pro 2009. Though, in my eyes Yosemite is the most ugly Mac OS X so far.

Ulysses 2.0 will be a free update:
http://ulyssesapp.com/blog/2015/02/ulysses-for-mac-2-0/
Correction: The file I had downloaded was truncated. Downloaded again - now it's working.
Too bad, I don't have the time to test it right now.
Franz
Hm. Looks good. Looks like a small-scale Scrivener replacement.
I just installed it. LO crashed before I could restart it. After starting LO, I couldn't find the extension. Extension Manager said, it...
