# nvALT 2
A collaboration between Brett Terpstra (ttscoff) and David Halter (ElasticThreads) based on [DivineDominion's](github.com/divineDominion/nv) fork. nvALT adds a few features we'd been looking for (and let me get some coding practice).

## About nvALT
nvALT is a fork of the original [Notational Velocity][notational] with some additional features and some interface modifications. It is a work in progress. I'm not listing it as a beta, as that would imply that it was on its way to being its own product. It's an experiment, and I hope you enjoy it!
## What it is
Notational Velocity is a way to take notes quickly and effortlessly using just your keyboard. You press a shortcut to bring up the window and just start typing. It will begin searching existing notes, filtering them as you type. You can use ⌘-J and ⌘-K to move through the list. Enter selects and begins editing. If you're creating a new note, you just type a unique title and press enter to move the cursor into a blank edit area. Check out the descriptions at [notational.net][notational] for a more eloquent synopsis.
## Additional Features
nvALT adds:
* Widescreen (horizontal) layout option
* Shortcut (⌘-⌥-N) to collapse the notes panel
* Markdown, Textile and MultiMarkdown support with Preview window
* HTML source code tab in the Preview window for fast copy/paste to blogs, etc.
* Unique interface design changes
* Fixes for a couple of bugs/annoyances
* Customizable HTML and CSS files for the Preview window
* You can use Javascript in the templates to do a few neat tricks
## Customization
Select "Open Custom CSS Folder" within the Preview menu, and the application's supprt folder will open. You will find two files:` template.html` and `custom.css`. If you're handy with HTML and CSS, feel free to customize these in whatever way you like. You can add Javascript as well, but you'll need to load external scripts from a url or using a full file:// path. If worst comes to worst, you can just delete or rename your customizations and the default files will be put back in place automatically when you select the menu item again.
