# Moving my notes to plain Markdown

## Excerpt

Why plain text files outlive every note app I tried.

## Body

The full text...
  • The home page shows the text of the ## Excerpt section and a Read more link. A post without one shows "Excerpt missing".
  • Date orders the posts and places them in the archive.
  • The author and date are shown under the title when the post has them.

Pages

Page Shows
index.html The newest posts with their excerpts
events.html The archive, by year and month
all.html Every document in a table
bookmarks.html Documents with Bookmark: Yes
properties.html Every property and its values
stats.html A tag cloud of the values

Settings

Key Default Meaning
index_posts 10 Number of posts on the home page
strict false When true, only Category: Post documents use the post layout; other documents use a plain page
datatable Columns of the document tables; the default app uses Date, Title and Topic
git, git_server, git_user, git_repo, git_branch, git_path Edit links; git_server is a full URL such as https://github.com
