Re: An Evernote backed Journal using Vim/Emacs

The wordpress editor seems to destroy some of the characters. I just tried this weekend to replicate the scripts as listed and they "work" if you remove all of the quotes and replace them. Also all of the double dashes become single.

Regardless I'm glad you have it working. Sorry for the mangling of the scripts themselves.

Thanks for posting. I modified your journal script to fit my needs. I had problems getting it to launch into my configured editor until I changed "WRITE" to WRITE (sans double-quotes). I'm running on linux, so I thought I'd post a comment in case anyone else has this particular problem.
Thanks again.

Using it now! Love it! Now to see if I can get it to accept Markdown or Textile then we will be in business!

Deepest sympathies to you and your family Ryan. I've unfortunately been through something similar so have some kind of understanding of what you've been through, are going through and will go through. You are incredibly brave to share such a personal story.

Keep strong and support each other.

I can't begin to imagine this situation. This was the first thing I read this morning, and after the tears stopped, I re-read your final paragraph. I have taken that message and resolved to see more in today. Thank-you, and my sincere condolences to you and your family.

This post showed up in my development feed (it being on lostechies), completely caught me by surprise, and by the end of it had me completely dissolved in tears. I have a daughter of 5 years, myself, and I can't even begin to imagine how horrifying it must feel to be unable to "fix it" when something like this rears its head.

You're a very courageous man. I'm so sorry for you and your wife's loss. Thanks for sharing this.
