- I've tried modifying the Drummer bookmarklet so that it's easier to use for link blogging. Currently, the bookmarklet adds a link node with selected text as a child node to my Notes.opml file. This is handy, and I've found that simply copy/pasting the entry into my blog.opml creates a nice link entry for my blog. But, I want the entry formatted as a single entry and would like the quoted text wrapped in a blockquote. I tried doing this myself but I can't get the bookmarklet to work. It's an encoding or string problem but I can't figure out what's wrong.#
- I'd like to use Tinderbox for outlining and publish the outline here on Drummer. I'm sure this is trivial but I have not had the energy to tackle it myself.#
- This may not be a Drummer thing, but the outliner is a little buggy for me. For example, I can't select text with the mouse. That seems like table stakes, and I've not heard anyone else talking about it, so it must just be me. I've tried 3 browsers and disabling all extensions but I'm only able to click and drag to select text once in a while. Not sure why it changes. Also, I find that hitting CTRL-enter doesn't always break the node at the insertion point. It seems random. Still haven't had the energy to either look into or report this.#
- My head space lately doesn't have the bandwidth or focus to tackle this stuff, even though I find Drummer brilliant and fascinating with endless potential. Hopefully I'll snap out of my funk sooner rather than later. I'd love to contribute.#
