Isn't editing existing notes fundamental to notational velocity UX? I have also been missing NV since leaving Mac OS is 2012. Shame the whole NV codebase is tied to Apple only frameworks. Nothing important about NV is even Mac specific; it is just three textboxes with well thought out key bindings; it's not using a bunch of fancy GUI framework features.


I believe that pressing Enter on a result opens the selected file as a buffer for editing. I think they mean that the plugin itself won't modify existing files, not that you can't modify existing files.


What OS are you using? If it's Windows, check out Resoph Notes. It's not open source but it is shareware and it's very good.


I've been doing a web version of NV for quite some time. I have a prototype but no time to finish. Need to find some, NV is awesome.
