If you are like me, you get a lot of business and personal mail. Often the answer is repeated over and over. When I lived in Istanbul, my friends (...

can i have snippets hierarchy or split the text file which saves the snippets? I have some snippets related to work and some other which are global dev ones I want one to be public (so i can store the .dash snippets in github) and the otehr personal. but I saw it can reference onkly a single .dash file, may i ask how do you deal with it?
Unfortunately I never tried to separate snippets. Actually, I switched all my snippets to
Alfred
as I use it for pretty much all workflow enhancements anyways. You can set up various snippet folders and hence separate pretty easily.Hi, yeah :) I just purchased alfred yesterday in order to use the workflows. While I like it, i saw the main advantage of
dash
overalfred
in the way that when i did search then on the right side of dash there is a very large window with the result, in alfred it's just a tiny window with a single line and sometimes I search for something like:scala json serialization
which gives me more like a gist meaning more than a few rows (a whole screen filled with json serialization stuff), and I like to see them all (almost one page) and then choose from within it what i need. Currently as i see things my workflow would be:My biggest issue with the above is that I don't have a single note taking app :( . While I know alfred can be connected to dash (just connected) it's copying the gist, and also when i search in alfred it's showing results as one liners and I need to see the whole right side window in order to decide if this is the search I wanted or continue refining the search.
What do you think?
That sounds like a good setup. I agree with the shortcomings of
Alfred
when you have longer snippets. I useSublime
for these as it is my primary tool for work and I can share.sublime-snippet
files easily in any way needed. For note taking I useBear
app as I love how simple it is and how nice code snippets look in it. I often use it to write down best practice in Q and A style. And no, I don't fear duplication. For me there are just two important things for (code) note taking: Document it when I am on it. And: Make sure I find it again.Funny timing. I was just asking about an alternative to TextExpander in the Changelog Slack yesterday, but was hoping for something open source (no dice, as far as I can find).
I'm already a big Dash fan for the docs side, but have never used its snippets features. I'm going to try this out today. Thanks for this!
