      Hi Guys,

      what mac App do you use Tibeter with editorial? Havent found the right one yet. The thing I'm looking for is a better integration, so I do not have to move through my whole Dropbox folder every time.

      Cheers

        I came across a post comparing editorial to the Mac's built in "Automator." I never heard of such a thing. But I was surprised when I ran it thst it felt like Editorial. Also, some software you download extends the Automator's capability.

        Perhaps there are some markdown apps that extend the Automator?

        Of course, Editorial for Mac is my hope too!

        But for what you need, the Automator will be more than sufficient.

            Try Notebooks. After install map it to the directory where your DropBox Editorial files are (default: apps/Editorial).

            I've been using it flawlessly for several months now. They have a download/eval version.

              nvALT is a good plain text alternative to Editorial. It has much better sorting (by name, date[s], tags) and searching for files, searching for text within files.

              Editorial workflows are similar to the many available Mac services (Automator scripts) you can install or build and use with nvALT and many other plain text editors.

              I like BBEdit as a do everything (plain text/markdown --> html) editor which is built to use services and Applescripts as well as shell scripts.

              Users have created a lot of macros for Keyboard Maestro that do the same or similar as most of the Automator services.

              There's lots more OS X tools - like Sublime Text - that are both editors that run scripts which Editorial tries to emulate on iOS.

                If you’re basically looking for a Markdown editor and workflows, I use iA Writer (for Markdown) and ThisService (for creating text-based services). Automator comes closer to the ease of creating service workflows, of course.
