Suggestions: A simple human-readable format for suggesting changes to text files
Even simpler:
Step 1: give me your edited `.tex` file.
Step 2: I selectively merge it into mine.
Step 3: There is no step 3.
To selectively merge, I use `meld` https://meldmerge.org/ but there are others.
Benefits of this even simpler approach:
- We continue to use the tools we are used to.
- We and our software don't have to learn a new inline diff format.
- Both files retain valid syntax before and during the selective merge.
- I can choose chunks to accept with a simple mouse click instead of editing a diff chunk.

Ask HN: How do you merge two files with ChatGPT(etc.)?
Why do you need ChatGPT? There are hundreds of diffing tools available that do this quite well. Meld is my favorite: https://meldmerge.org/

Diaphora, the most advanced Free and Open Source program diffing tool
Thanks, just today I daecided that the current status of Meld (https://meldmerge.org/) was untenable for me.
It used to be a fast program, with a reasonable interface.
For a long time now its interface has been "simplifed" following GNOME 3's User Interface Guidelines, and everything ended up being hidden inside a hamburger menu.
But what definitely made it untenable was not the UI, but its tendency to crash and being really slow under the slightest load.
I was considering contributing to the project, but honestly a better engineered alternative would be welcome.
Thanks for the info (and thanks Kai Willadsen for Meld).

Best visual diff and merge tool on macOS?
I’m looking for recommendations for the best visual diff and merge tool available on macOS. I’ve done my research as below but have some reservations about the options I found. - Meld seems to get mentioned a lot but the website syas it is not officially supported on OS X. Are the third party binaries trustworthy? - Beyond Compare is also mentioned but the developer website doesn’t inspire much confidence.

Integrating Git and (Neo)Vim: LazyGit + Fugitive + MergeTool for maxiumum efficiency [Showcase]
So, I use Meld for viewing complex diffs (:silent !meld . &). For interactivity, of course, I use the terminal and Vim, such as lazygit and tig, and fugative and gitgutter (or equivalents).

What a surprise
You bet. (Just copied the text of both into Meld and looked for genuine differences, in case you'd like to have an easy way for the future.) Thanks for doing all that you do here!

Beautifying Org Mode in Emacs (2018)
My main authoring tool is then Emacs Markdown Mode (https://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/). For data entry, it comes with some bells and whistles similar to org-mode, like C-c C-l for inserting links etc.
I seldom export my notes for external usage, but if it is the case, I use lowdown (https://kristaps.bsd.lv/lowdown/) which also comes with some nice output targets (among the more unusual are Groff and Terminal). Of cource pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does a very good job here, too.

Show HN: I made a tool to clean and convert any webpage to Markdown
This is one of those things that the ever-amazing pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does very well, on top of supporting virtually every other document format.

LaTeX makes me so angry at word
Folks feel the same way about Markdown versus LaTeX: why use something significantly more complicated where a looser, human-readable grammar works better?
For any other situations, I use https://pandoc.org/, or, generate a Word doc scriptomatically.

Launch HN: Onedoc (YC W24) – A better way to create PDFs
Congrats on the launch, I guess, but there are so many free options that I can't think of a situation where paying $0.25 per document would be justified...? Just to name a few:
Back in the days, I used to use XSL-FO [0] and it was okay. It was not very precise but it rarely if ever broke, and was perfectly integrated with an XML/XSLT solution. Yeah, this was a long time ago.
Last month I used html-to-pdfmake [1] and it's also not very precise and more fragile, but very efficient and fast.
Yet another approach would be to pro grammatically generate .rtf files (for example) and use Pandoc [2] to produce PDFs (I have not tried this in production but don't see why it wouldn't work).

Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
Others have mentioned static site generators. I like Hakyll [1] because it can tightly integrate with Pandoc [2] and allows you to develop custom solutions if your needs ever grow.

Pandoc
I have used it to kickstart a blogging project that I wish to come back to soon. The Lua inter-op for custom readers, writers and filters is great but I wish there was more editor integration and even perhaps an official IDE/editor with built-in debugging features (probably something already do-able with Emacs but I haven't checked). The only blocker for my project is no support for "ChunkedDoc" for Lua filters [1] which forces me to write more code and a complicated Makefile.
