Quiver 2 is finally here! Quiver 2 brings to you cloud syncing support, shared notebooks, Markdown preview, presentation mode, and many more awesome features!
Suggestions are welcome.
Caret looks real nice. Btw do you have any plans to make it into a note taking app? I'm looking for a replacement for quiver - http://happenapps.com/#quiver - since it is not being actively maintained.
Essential features are only three 1. Listing of notes (can be list of files in a directory) 2. Some metadata support (like title) 3. Full text search
Separating editor and preview isn't really what they're going for, it's much more of a fluid read and write in the same place editor without the additional burden of separating the two.
If you need that separation there are a ton of great note and writing apps out there that do it, Quiver is great and Marked+anything is also solid.
They're not as streamlined as Bear is, they're shooting for a different goal.
Another place this is evident in the lack of folders in Bear, just a simple tagging system.
Have you checked Quiver? It's only for Mac (soon for iOS). I'm using it for a while, it has tons of very nice features. Give it a try! Update, I read your comment now, if you are using Linux and you only want your notes, then you might be able to use Geeknote and export your note in HTML or something.
I know this thread is for windows apps, but in case anyone else is using OS X, check out Quiver.
It's seriously the greatest programmer's note taking app there is. You can create notebooks which contain notes which contain cells.
There are four types of cells you can easily switch between:
Text (RTF), Markdown, Code (all languages supported), and LateX
I love this app so much and I use it for everything programming related.

I use Quiver and love it. It doesn't force file names, has folders, syntax highlighting, Markdown support and looks decent. It's all I really need.
Also, the developer maintains a (rather active) public issue tracker at GitHub. He's responsive to issues on it and is open to new implementation ideas.

Why I'm requesting these:
My main issue with the current UX is that it's too hard to find my most important core notes in the soup of notes that I edit daily. I have two primary "TODO: Work", and "TODO: Personal" notes that I always want to stay at the top of the Notes list. Folders, color-coding, and custom sorting would all help alleviate that issue by making those notes easier to find. (I'm aware of ctrl-F to search for notes)
<3 Noteplan, it's my favorite notes app by far, you already have my glowing testimonial on your homepage :)
homebrew is a must (mac package manager)
it's handy to get familiar with diskutil
and tmutil
use pbcopy
and pbpaste
to interact with the system clipboard from the command line
Little Snitch is unmatched for network monitoring
LaunchBar and Alfred are super powerful Spotlight replacements. great for task automation and such
If you're missing the whole tiling window manager thing kwm is pretty neat. check out /r/unixporn for some sexy setups
+1 for 1password
iStatMenus is a pretty thorough hardware monitoring tool for the menu bar
You can make screen recordings in QuickTime Player (in the File menu)
Jetbrains' IDEs are top notch
The Unarchiver is my favorite archive utility
Commander One for a split pane file manager/ftp client that supports like a dozen different services (s3, drive, etc) and protocols. Other people swear by Transmit and Forklift
Transmission is by far the best torrent client
lastly, Quiver is a neat notebook tool aimed at programmers - full search & tags, supports text/markdown/latex/diagrams/code with highlighting, vim/emacs bindings, global shortcuts for search and quick note, and some other cool stuff. doesn't get updates very often but as a programmers' journal sort of thing I love it. Basically my own mental log file.
Hey,
Im ended up using Quiver its pretty awesome. You should check it out since it has a couple of pretty cool features. However Im always open to new platforms, and unit sounds cool. I would gladly help test it out and give you feedback.
Quiver is a new one for me and looks pretty cool. I'm currently managing a folder of .md snippet files for different languages/projects on github and letting spotlight find my answers. This looks way better.
No problem! I fell in love with sublime after bad experiences with TextMate and Atom.io
I am going to bump Quiver one more time in case you have a Mac. I totally love that thing.
