So I'd have to tag every one of the umpteen files I create (in some session doing whatever) with some spur-of-the-moment searchword I'll never remember later, in stead of just cd-ing to some directory and that's where they'll all be?
It's funny how all these anti-directory tag-and-search proponents seem to take for granted that their hobbyhorse is obviously superior. I've never seen any proof that it is, and I don't think it is.
- alxndr 5y ago> "tag every... file I create ... with some spur-of-the-moment searchword" isn't that kind of what we are already doing with the names used in the directory hierarchy + the filename?
- CRConrad 5y agoNo, I just create files. I don't have to do any tagging at all. Or: Yes, in a way that's what the hierarchical directory structure already does for us. In either case: So what's the use of ripping out the hierarchical directory structure and replacing it with some (other) "tagging" system??? (We already have a universal "tagging" system that automatically uses every single word in every single file as a searchable "tag"; it's called "grep"...)
