Design pillars of Saltmarrow, a fictional sample project, in Nodary’s editor, opened from the map: Back to the map · Vision at the start of the header, the words “The tide is the clock” selected in a heading with the bubble above them offering B, I, U, S, Link and Turn into, then Clarify, Shorten, Tone and Comment, and below, a list whose items keep their bold “Do:” and “Don’t:”.
Documents

Write by hand, with the keys you already know.

A new document has a line to type on, bold and links stay in lists and tables, a bubble formats what you select and the shortcuts of other editors work. The way back from a document names where it goes, and gets there.
