Should include a 1996 tag.
I go read this every few years thinking maybe I should learn WordStar... Just like I should learn Emacs for Org Mode. Then I slouch back off to Sublime Text, Scrivener, and Word.
I still write drafts in fountain pen, though.
- eddieh 5y agoIf you are not already invested in WordStar and have an old DOS machine on hand, then I'd strongly suggest Emacs & Org Mode. The Emacs learning curve is pretty terrible, but once you are comfortable with Org you can do all your writing there. There's a huge benefit to having the same configuration for text editing (Sublime) and document preparation (Srivener, Word). Can't help with the fountain pen though. :)
- dctoedt 5y agoEmacs and org-mode are great as a way to gradually learn LaTeX incrementally. (Of course, it helps to have been using both Emacs and org-mode for awhile.)
