On macOS try emacs-mac-port, it has many goodies comparing to emacsformacos.com: - The only Emacs that works with window managers, I use Magnet.app to resize windows using shortcuts - Integration with other macOS apps, like Tip.app[1], so selection (region) in Emacs is recognised by macOS and sent to Tip.app as stdin From downsides, it won't compile with xwidgets support (webkit).

Alternatively, you can program Tip (https://github.com/tanin47/tip, disclaimer: I'm the creator) to popup relevant menu items based on the text you currently select. I've been using this at work hundreds of times every day for years now. I'd love anyone to try it out.

It won't, but I feel pretty damn good about my repo getting almost 900 stars (https://github.com/tanin47/tip). The github stars is quite useful to break into big tech as well. But the value of it probably stops there.

Thank you for pointing it out. I just notice the description. I guess I can offer a different one that is free. A programmable tooltip on Mac: https://github.com/tanin47/tip I'm experimenting with a mechanism to replace the selected text. You can select a text (on any app), activate the tooltip, and select one of the options, and that option can replace the selected text. The UX isn't as smooth as I want. There is some sort of modal blocking going on, and I'm still figuring out how to overcome that.

My time to shine. I have built a programmable tooltip for Mac. It works on any app. I use this hundreds of times a day at work for 2y now. You can select any text and activate the tooltip with the short key. Then, the tooltip offers a list of options like jumping to URL, showing some extra info. You are the one who write the script to process the text and return the options. You can check it out here: github.com/tanin47/tip PS. I configure a mouse button to trigger the Tip short key, so it is even more convenient.

I use a mouse with 3 extra buttons. 2 are for copying and pasting, and 1 is for activating a programmable tooltip. Here are the apps to achieve above (I built them): 1. Mouse config tool for Mac https://github.com/tanin47/noo 2. Programmable tooltip for Mac https://github.com/tanin47/tip This makes me very productive mechanically.

Shameless plug. You can use a programmable tooltip for macOS, so you don't have to remember all the shortcuts for these workflows. Please see https://github.com/tanin47/tip

I have been using a single plain text file as my note for 6 months now. I'm using vim mode on sublime though. Switching to a plain text file that syncs to GitHub feels more permanent. I've gone through several note apps (e.g. Evernote, Joplin) and I never really migrated the notes to the new app... Anyway, I have my own apps to share. They might be useful to others. * I use https://github.com/tanin47/git-notes to sync my note file to a bit repo * A programmable tooltip on Mac. You can program it to send the selected text on any app to your note file: https://github.com/tanin47/tip/wiki/Universal-Tip,-a-program...

I'm working on a programmable tooltip on Mac OS X (https://github.com/tanin47/tip), as in you can write your own script (ruby/python/bash) to provide tooltip items. It's my first real app on Mac OS X. I started the app before the covid crisis though. But these days I have so much time to iterate on it...

Yes, I'm still working on the mouse/trackpad configuration app, which will make Tip usage really convenient. Please leave a comment on this issue: https://github.com/tanin47/tip/issues/28 I'll notify you when the app is released to private beta. Current progress: I'm building the setting UI for configuring mouse button and trackpad.

I just started at Stripe last year, and I found myself perform many mechanical tasks like: * Converting seconds-from-epoch to a human readable date * Select an id and pull info about it At first, I tried to perform these mechanical tasks with some crazy shortcuts. But remembering shortcuts for every little flow is heavy. Eventually, I've built a programmable tooltip on Mac OS X for these mechanical tasks. I'd love for you to try it! https://github.com/tanin47/tip

I'm working on a native programmable tooltip that can be used with any Mac OS app. You can select a text on any app and hit the configured shortcut to activate tooltip. I program this tooltip to speed up several of my workflows like opening a JIRA ticket , opening a file in IntelliJ from a stacktrace, and show humand-readable time from seconds from epoch. The tooltip has been very helpful to me, and it might be useful to you. Check it out: https://github.com/tanin47/tip
