From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You might have a look at LEO:

I used it extensively for some time to write big documentation. It is good.
But I'd guess that for most tasks, Emacs org-mode is the most powerful option.
Interesting. First time reading about it*. Were it not for you, this might have been completely off the radar. So thank you for mentioning it!
Yeah, it has been slowly growing on me 😜. But I would like to explore all other options before I fully commit.
What makes LEO great for consistent larger documentation is that one can write things like footnotes or a glossary in nodes which can be linked into multiple pages - much like files with multiple hard links in a file system.
Also, it can re-read exported generated files into a structured outline, which is managed under version control.
Also, good support for literate programming, which is Don Knuth's perhaps greatest idea.
LEO definitely looks like a cool project. It has made me curious and I would like to try it out. Thanks (again)!
However, before I do, I would like to verify if folding^[Also known as collapse/expand] a section/heading in Markdown -as demonstrated in the gif- is possible with LEO. Could you please confirm this for me?
Very interesting concept. I believe I stumbled upon this video about a week ago. Together with two other videos, It has been at the very top of "Watch Later"-list since. But I haven't gotten around to watch it yet 😅. I believe the topics are related. Am I right? Regardless, I'll definitely take a deeper look into literate programming. Thank you for mentioning it!
You’ve already discovered the best editor. There’s no need to explore more. ;)
Hehe 😜. Perhaps the purpose of this exploration is to cement the idea that I'm already on the best 😂. We'll see 😉.
