Tyke

A little bit of scratch paper that lives on your Mac menu

I made Tyke because when I'm working I often need a little of scratch paper to jot something down. Sometimes it's becasue I need to paste it someplace or other times it's because I just want to clear the formatting and edit it. I used to use a new text editor window for that job. Now I don't have to.

@chrismessina but Clippy is a P1!
Erik van Mechelen
@chrismessina cool added to my writing collection
Scott Winterroth
Yeah, cool! I also need to sometimes remove formatting quickly and I don't want to open up a text editor app.

@swinterroth "Shift + Option + Command + V" on a mac?

I’m not aware of a thing that Andre has made that I haven’t wanted or needed without knowing it.
jeff!
@jmacias what other apps has he made that I don't know I need but most definitely probably do?

I use Alfred + IA Writer for these use cases all the time

@blakesamic What's the workflow? Does IA saves everything that I type in Alfred without the need of manual process of opening IA and then creating new doc?
Blake Samic
@parwinder IA is a light enough app that Alfred can open it super quickly. So I just use Alfred to open IA and then start a new note with a keyboard shortcut. Very fast overall. Much lighter than opening Evernote for example.

Really like this. A modern version of the Mac OS notes widget. Is there a keyboard shortcut to invoke it?

unclutter app is note taking, clipboard and project folders features at the same interface. It's easy, it's fast, flawless and yet not a menu bar app in case you dont want more menu bar icons (bartender to handle that)

Pros:

Simple

Cons:

Nothing special. Unclutter works and does more than tyke do with just a gesture.

Just used it for a phone call today. It's plain, simple and it works :) I don't see a need for more functionalities at the moment. This is a keeper.

Pros:

Simple and effective for notes you need.

Cons:

None yet
