![]() Keyboard Maestro + TextExpander + Automator = Autohotkey. Able to make bootable backups, freeware, can be scheduled. Extensible, skin-able, multiple instance/window.Ĭarbon Copy Cloner = Cobian Backup. Note, not a replacement for any of the online task managers (for obvious reasons). Not nearly as good as either one of the Mac apps, but it does perspectives, serial projects, deferred projects, etc. Markdown formatting & conversion, storage in plain text files, sync to Simplenote. Not as flexible as any of the Mac apps, but can program specific shortcuts Launchbar | Alfred | Quicksilver = Launchy. While I do think an episode of “Windows at work, Mac at home” would definitely be interesting, I thought I’d offer a few suggestions. You could test them out, otherwise perhaps other people can provide you with good suggestions. What they have in format flexibility, they lack in the ease of document organization of apps like Evernote, Simplenote and Quiver. They’re both a little nerdy though, don’t know if it’s for you. But both Care and VSCode should install fine, you could give them a go. Typora, Caret and Visual Studio Code comes to mind as great note editors, Typora is probably my favorite, but it doesn’t have a portable version / doesn’t install in user space unfortunately, so won’t work for you. It’s a great open format, works on every platform and give you the choice between so many apps. I’d suggest Todoist or if you need stronger collaboration features at the expense of being more web-like, Asana I’ve found great.įor notes I’ve gravitated more and more towards markdown files over time. Sounds tough… If I were you I’d probably keep Things for personal stuff, and opt for a completely separate app for work tasks. (I wonder if there’s a sync option from Things to a web app which might help my task management, for eg.?) My major issue is that I am (I think!) just transferring to Things from Omnifocus - and at the moment that means working from a task manager on my phone/macbook whilst on my work laptop.)Īny ideas? Any work arounds? NHS IT won’t let me share calendar or sync anything. I can’t download Evernote (or anything else). (The NHS limits what windows can do beyond window’s inbuilt limitations - so for example I can’t synchronise my work calendar with exchange or google or iCloud I can use OneNote but can only access it on my work windows laptop or when logged into my account on a work desktop. ![]() ![]() Which not only means I can’t use my Mac apps but also that I can’t download anything - so I’m needing Mac apps which have browser versions. Have managed to use Mac for years & now I have a proper job (been pretty much freelance until now) I have to use an NHS windows laptop. My work laptop is driving me bonkers because of what I can’t do. More functions can be created with the QM programming language that supports user-defined types, classes, COM, DLL functions, embedded VBScript/C#/VB.NET/C scripts, and everything for programming even at Windows API level.I’d be very interested in this. Quick Macros can add your toolbars to any window, auto-close annoying popup windows, auto-complete or correct text as you type, remap keys, convert your macros to independent. To run macros you can use hotkeys, autotext, mouse, window, schedule and other triggers, create pop-up menus and toolbars. Creating macros is easier with the mouse/kayboard recorder, tool dialogs, tools to capture various objects and images, intellisense, dialog editor, debugger. Your macros can press keys, click buttons, links, menu items, on-screen images and other UI objects, manage windows, run and manage files, wait for various events, show dialogs, send/receive internet files and email, automate web pages, get/set text of UI objects, process text/HTML/XML/CSV, automate Excel, use databases, and many more. Quick Macros automates repetitive tasks, even the most complex.
