On Features

Jack Baty writes that

One of the amazing things about [Tinderbox's] development process is the way in which new features are added. At first glance new features can seem rather haphazardly tossed in, and yet after a few minutes of use everything tends to make complete sense. These little things sure do add up.

In the new release 4.5.3, he singles out the ability to use contextual menus to assign badges or prototypes to several notes at once. “I didn’t even know I wanted to do that,”, he says, “but there it is, and it’s useful.”

(I didn’t expect this to be useful, either. But it is. There you go.)
