Prototype: event_note
Assigning dates
- For a single-date event: fill
$DueDate
. - For a single-date event with a hidden span: assign the span to
$StartDate
and$EndDate
, and assign the single date to$DueDate
. When all three are set,$DueDate
overrides. - For a span that sorts with single-date events: fill
$DueDate
and$EndDate
. - For a span that shows a missing term: fill either
$StartDate
or$EndDate
.
Display
- An event-note with a single
$DueDate
displays as (D) - An event-note with a year range displays as (D – E)
- An event-note with a
$StartDate
but no$EndDate
displays as (S – …) - An event-note with an
$EndDate
but no$StartDate
displays as (… – E) - An event-note with a single
$DueDate
AND a$StartDate
–$EndDate
range will display as (D)
$DueDate
. The note will display with the $DueDate
but the biographical $StartDate
and $EndDate
are still available and can be used for other things—e.g., as a parenthetical date-range that you can append to the author's name.Key Attributes

Inside of Tinderbox, this introductory paragraph actually begins with a tab. Welcome to the quote_ana_note world, where you do not have to prepend tabs to miles and miles of text that you want to blockquote. To export a normal paragraph, begin with a tab. To export commentary text, begin with a bullet. That’s it! Now for the rest of the sample note:
With this insight one can understand how, with regard to the movements which represent colors, forms, and shapes, it is possible that the entire system of nerves becomes an “eye.”
How can movement ever emerge as anything other than movement? Sellars talks about this—it must be a feature of the reductive elements. What makes the system negentropic are rules and tiny bits whose properties are very few, or maybe even single. In Conway’s Game of Life, the property is single—black or white. This binary is in fact the distinction between thing and no-thing, matter and void (or: place), being and nothing.
Moreover, reflecting upon the rarefied nature and the mobility of matter, and the exact contiguity with which it fills all space, one can understand how there can never occur any movement or displacement, even within its slightest parts, which does not reach, to some extent, the entire expanse of the universe.
The fluid, being rigid and mechanical, converts collision with the rapidity of metal bars in all directions, thereby nullifying spatial separation. (Remember, from your local Museum of Science, the metal bar lying text to the bars filled with air and water to demonstrate how the medium of propagation affects the speed of sound.)
We can therefore conclude that there is neither a being nor a combination of matter which—by the relations in which they exist with the whole—does not imprint an effect upon all surrounding matter and upon the medium within which we are immersed; it follows that everything which exists can be experienced, and that animated bodies, finding themselves in contact with all of Nature, have the faculty of being sensitive not only to beings, but also to events which succeed one another.
