Software components and configuration notes

The latest version of the backward-compatible Folgezettel IDs for Zettlr is here.

There are many ways to implement a digital Zettelkasten. An inventory of the software components and configuration files I use is available at Zettelkasten software components.

Terminological troubles beset the account of note categories in the English translation of How To Take Smart Notes by Sönke Ahrens. This is a lightly modified copy of an article originally posted at Zettelkasten.de. The post is CC BY-SA 4.0 (I'm the author), as is this wiki.

UPDATE: I prefer the terms Source Note and Point Note of Professor Dan Allosso to the terms Literature Note and Permanent Note of Sönke Ahrens. [Since Ahrens writes that Literature Notes are Permanent Notes, the more pedantic formulation is Permanent non-Literature Note.]

UPDATE I now use an alphabetic index and no longer use categories.
