Recognize existing note by just typing, Mynotename. No need to always use [[

2 votes

It's inconvenient to always type [[ because a) unnecessary effort and b) you might not always know that you already have that note and thus fail to reference it.
Since you already auto populate dates, you should do that too.
Reminds me of Emacs and Org-Roam, where this is being a game changer.
(Please don't forget, that I'm a founder, thank you.)

Hey Jochen! This sounds like a very useful feature indeed!

To the extent that you can provide some priort art for this, it might prove very useful for the dev team. Can you link to any Emacs examples of this feature in action? My first thought is that such a feature will heavily affect editor performance for people that have thousands of notes in their notebook.

Thanks!

Even though I don't understand "priort art" I will anticipate, I should provide a gif or screenshot to prove my point.
Since I'm not familiar with creating gifs I do provide the link of my public note here: https://public.amplenote.com/M9LRurKh1wbBZm1xTbkfqpBX

Please come back to me if you need anything else.

Please keep in mind 2 things:
1) Org-Roam does this via a database: SQLIGHT and
2) The word (only one word, no space, but dash allowed) is to be typed correctly, or it won't be recognized
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Regards, Jochen.
