Also see https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?p=556811#p556811 down near the end where fehlix mentions several kernels that someone else's appimage needed for it to run. @JayM Salamat Po !

[SOLVED] Joplin [latest] not working on Debian based distros

Re: Writers - what tools / techniques do you use to write?

I'm finally allowing myself to start writing after wanting to for decades. Congratulations. I've been writing for over twenty years, and managed to finish a few novels, and it's always a rush when you realize you know the characters well enough to let them move the story along instead of having the...

Re: Pachage Request - Hledger - newer version

...So might there be a chance for updating hledger now? Stable version of hledger is presently at 1.14.

Hoping at least for pkgs: hledger, hledger-ui, hledger-web to be upgraded.

Thank you.

Re: Writers - what tools / techniques do you use to write?

So far I've settled on Freeplane . I'm definitely a very visual, nonlinear thinker. So it's working great. It ticks the boxes concerning my want for multiple export capabilities (don' t want any dead end roads). I'm especially happy with its capability of exporting all/some nodes with their notes to...

I' ll keep checking back for more...

Thanks to all on this thread https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=47606&start=110 for helping me, just a little bit more, to step off the precipice... I'm finally allowing myself to start writing after wanting to for decades. I'm starting from, I guess you could say, ground zero (or...
