Noix (stylised noix) is a
POSIX shell script
and file format of my own design, based on Markdown.
It was built out of a desire to have something like GNU Emacs' org-mode or Microsoft One Note,
with the exception that it was neither of those, allowing me to continue to avoid learning elisp or using Microsoft Office.
My private repository of noix notes spans four years and around 468 thousand words, weighing in at 5 megabytes of plaintext, not including .git blobs.
Currently, progress on noix has stalled as I have struggled for years to incorporate any sort of visual data into my notes.
I want to be able to add handwritten diagrams. I am open to suggestions as to how I might do this.
I've just discovered after writing this that I haven't actually released noix anywhere. I'm opting to leave the description here in order to pad out this page a little.
