Beeswax - Mind Your Own Beeswax
Wow, this looks like a really interesting project to watch — a GNU-licensed, command line productivity app that finds inspiration in a bona fide classic:
Beeswax is an information management system inspired by Lotus Agenda. It aims to recreate Agenda’s flexibility and efficiency in a clutter-free, text-based (ncursesw) user interface with vi key bindings. Beeswax views & reports will have specifications for sections, columns, filtering, and sorting…
The relationships between items of information are highly flexible. An item can be easily assigned to several different categories and the view immediately displays the new relationships. An item can just as easily be detached from categories. As you move items through Beeswax, their relationship to each other remains highly flexible.
You still hear a lot of people saying Agenda is the closest they ever got to their dream productivity app. And, depending on who you ask, Agenda’s endless flexibility was either incredibly powerful or infinitely fiddly.
Beeswax is a very young application, but I’ll definitely be giving it a spin. There’s certainly a long-standing itch for Agenda that lot of folks would love to have scratched.
The Question to You
Any of the old hardcore Agenda folks tried out Beeswax yet?
