pasting code into Mellel
One way to paste syntax-highlighted code in to Mellel: Copy from VS Code (I know, I know - I am an emacs+evil-mode person myself, but humour me) Past into MS Word Do font/font-size adjustments there (preserves the syntax highlighting) copy that paste into Mellel (going straight from VS Code to Melle...

Re: Feature request: split view
Mellel is a superb tool for writing a dissertation with 3 caveats
1. If it's all maths, use LaTeX
2. no emacs keys (yeah, I know... broken record)
3. no split view
For me, it (Mellel) is still the best tool of offer, but a split view would be a boon.

Re: request: emacs keys
BUMP! Just living in hope! :P I'm writing my dissertation in Mellel, and it is just superb. This forum has been very helpful. I miss some of the emacs cursor movement keys we see in other text apps (I know, Mellel uses its own text engine). Moving off the home row to the arrow keys for simple forwar...

Re: Narrative ("in text") citation format - Mellel + Bookends
In Nisus, for example, entering {^Schein et al., 1990, #14690} (with the caret ^ after the opening brace) produces, after scanning: Schein et al. (1990) with the name entered and the date in parens. In Mellel, inserting the reference from Mellel, and then adding the "%" at the start produc...

Narrative ("in text") citation format - Mellel + Bookends
There's an old thread on this, and this example is from that thread (with some quotes from the thread) I wonder if there are any updates - in-text citations are pretty standard now in some environments. https://forum.mellel.com/viewtopic.php?t=1666 Let's say we have a reference: Lenin, 1964, #123456...

Re: request: emacs keys
Just bumping this thread I understand why Mellel doesn't support some of the usual OSX cursor movement keys. We have C-a and C-e in Mellel (wonder why?) - it would be just great to round that out with C-b, C-f (back, forward a char) C-n, C-p (up, down a SCREEN line - I know, I know) C-k (delete to e...
