I won't claim that it's simple, but it's pretty powerful, while still being fast. I'm using similar conventions to define all the other controls in Bike 2's editor.

The question for Bike 2, is how to enable this sort of thing in a generic way via user stylesheet. Here's what I've come up with! These are the two rules used to style links:

Here's I'm working on at the moment. In Bike Outliner links have associated that trail the link text. Like this:

Another clue. kind:HTML actually doesn't have much to do with it... instead it is just that any search recognized as a metadata search seems to take a different path and include the HTML file results.

For example typing this into the spotlight popup also includes .html files results:

spotlighttest OR thisdoesnotexist

A clue! If I search for this in the spotlight popup then my .html files do show up as results:

kind:HTML AND "spotlighttest"

I still don't understand why HTML files are special and need the type specified. Many other formats don't need this extra specification.

To reproduce:

echo spotlighttest > testone.txt

% echo spotlighttest > testtwo.html

% mdfind spotlighttest

2024-12-30 14:22:28.552 mdfind[28326:550500] [UserQueryParser] Loading keywords and predicates for locale "en_US"

2024-12-30 14:22:28.553 mdfind[28326:550500] [UserQueryParser] Loading keywords and predicates for locale "en"

~/Desktop/Spotlighttest/testone.txt

~/Desktop/Spotlighttest/testtwo.html

Now do Command-Spacebar and search for "spotlighttest". I think only testone will show.

This is driving me bonkers. Why does spotlight search not include .html files, when matched by content, anymore?

I think this is a new macOS 15.x problem.

It includes them when you match file name, but not when you match content. The .html file are being indexed because they show up in mdfind and in Finder window searches.

Just not in Command-Spacebar spotlight search.

If you are using TaskPaper on macOS 14 you should update to latest (14.7.1) to avoid some screen redraw bugs in the text area. I think these bugs only show up in some of the middle 14.x point releases.

Iteration #tomany of Bike 2's style system is coming to life. Interesting thing this time around is all the UI (everything but text) is added via stylesheet, so possible to provide your own variations. Will this be the final approach... I hope so!

Was macOS 15 window tiling when dragging to edges and titlebar on by default?

I like the idea of window tiling. Option key to tile is great. Tiling when you move to edges or titlebar seems pretty drastic. I can't get used to it. I can only imagine what my parents are thinking when it happens.

I had promised a Bike 2 preview build "this week". Three hours to go and my build script is broken and I'm sleepy. So ... NEXT WEEK! 😞 In the meantime here's a fun and ugly preview of Bike stylesheet. More useful is it can also recreate Bike 1.0 look, but more fun is this!
