@mitchmarq42xyz I'm not familiar with #hyperbole, just heard about it in the past but didn't give it a serious try.

What #howm allowed me to do is jot down sparse notes and look them all up later.

Some things I usually write:

- Code projects' troubleshooting guides for weird setups
- Bugs I came across when working on something -> eventually these go to the issue tracker
- Standup notes -> big life-saver, that's how I'm able to remember what I did the previous day
- TIL notes for interesting things I came across

You could do the same thing with a Bash script, some common notation/headers for each of these and good old grep. Howm offers a specific function (howm-grep) to search the notes and display them in a separate buffer. It's quick to make it recognize new keywords too.

It compares pretty closely to #denote from what I heard from other people.

@hochata I agree, #denote and #howm are pretty similar. The main difference for me is that howm comes with its own way to grep files (howm-grep) and has (howm-remember) to quickly jot down notes. All of that can be replicated in #denote as well.

For the note templates, I'm using `yasnippet` to expand snippets into a common structure or to stub source code blocks. I'm doing a lot of literate programming these days.

#emacs folks, do any of you use #howm? I'm using it for the last 3 months and it fit like a glove for taking notes at work. I'm curious, what do you use HOWM for?
