I don't know howm, but deft seems swell. However, it might be nice to have deft-directory accept a list of folders. I keep my notes in multiple folders based on subject. Alternatively, I could collect symlinks to important files in one folder, but this requires more work on my part. The same may be true for deft-extension. I might want to keep my ledger file as well as my org files in deft. In a similar spirit, when I create a new file I'd want it to placed in a specific folder. It it would be nice if deft would ask me where to save the new file. Maybe there could even be a variable containing my favorite folders, which I could quickly select from. A use case would be the following: - Type in the name of the note RET - A list of known folders is shown. A sensible default is highlighted. Thus, RET RET will simulate current behavior. - Alternatively I may select a desired folder from the list (I am thinking an ido-list). Just a though. I appreciate your work.
