I suspect that I started to misunderstand where you were coming from, but I think that I caught myself. --- I suspect that you're using the term "Everyman" in a different way than I'm used to it being used — as that ever

Way cool! The ecosystem is indeed developing: I have been working on a Python way to import/export Orgmode files to/from an SQLite database that you can view and query in a native GUI (using Toga[0]). I was writing an Org-mode imp

What do you mean exactly by "financed" in this statement? It feels like you're using it in a technical way, such as thinking of the purchase as having its cost spread over multiple time periods.

Regarding the use of footnotes in non-fixed media, such as webpages and ePub (ebooks), I feel that the distinction between footnotes and endnotes is somewhat irrelevant because they are hidden at the end of the relevant article/chapter

Right now I'm slowly building a Git GUI for working with changes I make in my TiddlyWiki instances. The app will keep me from getting behind in my commits and be a fun way for practicing Python and working with Toga.
