This is one of those things that is likely common knowledge, but I stumbled across it accidentally today while doing some studying on web accessibility.

A big thanks to MeisterTask for sponsoring BrettTerpstra.com this week! I recently posted about their latest feature Agenda — a.k.a. “one board to rule them all.” This week is focused on the launch of their most requested feature of all time: Timeline, MeisterTask’s very own version of a Gantt chart.

Since I last wrote about Fish (the Friendly Interactive SHell), I’ve become a full-on convert. I actually stumble a bit when I use Bash now, with so many nice Fish features ingrained in my muscle memory. Did you know that Fish records command history per-directory and offers the appropriate completion based on your current working directory? It’s an amazingly productive feature.

I had been doing a decent job of posting progress updates for nvUltra, but fell out of the habit for a bit there. So here’s the latest news.

Since posting about the new Marked Custom Style Gallery, I’ve added six new preview styles for Marked 2 that I consider worth a mention: Emma, Mouse, Hardstock, Monophile, Symphonic, and FadingFast. Click any of those links to preview the styles live in your browser.

Thanks to The Archive for sponsoring BrettTerpstra.com this week! I know that—with the impending release of nvUltra—it seems like touting the competition, but The Archive is a great app and their support of BrettTerpstra.com means a lot to me. Thank you!

I automate everything I can. I enjoy the process of building automations in myriad contexts, using myriad tools. And I frequently have to assess whether I’ve spent more time automating something than I’m actually going to save using the automation.

As part of my Marked 2 documentation update over the weekend, I ended up putting some more time into my (admittedly insane) NiftyMenu project. This project made me look crazy when I first posted it last year. This update is not going to help. I will have to shoot over 180 screenshots before I break even on time invested… but it’s really fun to play with.
