PS A CAVEAT
DEVONthink does a good job of:
- Indexing a folder of Bike files
- Displaying Bike files with the help of a CSS file (
DT Preferences > Web > Stylesheet
)
So for some users, it might prove to be a useful adjunct to Bike,
but it’s not a good environment in which to edit Bike outlines.
You can try, but it will rename your outline to give it an .html
extension, and use an HTML header and format which is incompatible with Bike. (Comments out the Bike outline’s XML header, introduces unclosed HTML tags)
Instead, from within DEVONthink, you should always use:
Data > Open With ... Bike
If you accidentally edit a Bike file with DT’s HTML editor, and find that Bike itself can no longer open your outline, the recovery procedure is:
- Select all and copy from the DT editing window
- Paste into a fresh Bike document.
