Top Linux tools for writers
======
![](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/image-full-size/public/lead-images/EDUCATION_pencils.png?itok=U2FwL2LA)
If you've read [my article about how I switched to Linux][1], then you know that Im a superuser. I also stated that Im not an “expert” on anything. Thats still fair to say. But I have learned many helpful things over the last several years, and I'd like to pass these tips along to other new Linux users.
Today, Im going to discuss the tools I use when I write. I based my choices on three criteria:
1. My main writing tool must be compatible for any publisher when I submit stories or articles.
2. The software must be quick and simple to use.
3. Free is good.
There are some wonderful all-in-one free solutions, such as:
However, I tend to get lost and lose my train of thought when I'm trying to find information, so I opted to go with multiple applications that suit my needs. Also, I dont want to be reliant on the internet in case service goes down. I set these programs up on my monitor so I can see them all at once.
Consider the following tools suggestions—everyone works differently, and you might find some other app that better fits the way you work. These tools are current to this writing:
### Word processor
[LibreOffice 6.0.1][2]. Until recently, I used [WPS][3], but font-rendering problems (Times New Roman was always in bold format) nixed it. The newest version of LibreOffice adapts to Microsoft Office very nicely, and the fact that it's open source ticks the box for me.
### Thesaurus
[Artha][4] gives you synonyms, antonyms, derivatives, and more. Its clean-looking and fast. Type the word "fast," for example, and you'll get the dictionary definition as well as the other options listed above. Artha is a huge gift to the open source community, and more people should try it as it seems to be one of those obscure little programs. If youre using Linux, install this application now. You wont regret it.
### Note-taking
[Zim][5] touts itself as a desktop wiki, but its also the easiest multi-level note-taking app youll find anywhere. There are other, prettier note-taking programs available, but Zim is exactly what I need to manage my characters, locations, plots, and sub-plots.
### Submission tracking
I once used a proprietary piece of software called [FileMaker Pro][6], and it spoiled me. There are plenty of database applications out there, but in my opinion the easiest one to use is [Glom][7]. It suits my needs graphically, letting me enter information in a form rather than a table. In Glom, you create the form you need so you can see relevant information instantly (for me, digging through a spreadsheet table to find information is like dragging my eyeballs over shards of glass). Although Glom no longer appears to be in development, it remains relevant.
### Research
Ive begun using [StartPage.com][8] as my default search engine. Sure, [Google][9] can be one of your best friends when you're writing. But I don't like how Google tracks me every time I want to learn about a specific person/place/thing. So I use StartPage.com instead; it's fast and does not track your searches. I also use [DuckDuckGo.com][10] as an alternative to Google.
### Other tools
[Chromium Browser][11] is an open source version of [Google Chrome][12], with privacy plugins.
Though [Thunderbird][13], from [Mozilla][14], is a great program, I find [Geary][15] a much quicker and lighter email app. For more on open source email apps, read [Jason Baker][16]'s excellent article, [Top 6 open source desktop email clients][17].
As you might have noticed, my taste in apps tends to merge the best of Windows, MacOS, and the open source Linux alternatives mentioned here. I hope these suggestions help you discover helpful new ways to compose (thank you, Artha!) and track your written works.
Happy writing!

献给写作者的 Linux 工具
======
![](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/image-full-size/public/lead-images/EDUCATION_pencils.png?itok=U2FwL2LA)
如果你已经阅读过[我关于如何切换到 Linux 的文章][1],那么你就知道我是一个超级用户。另外,我不是任何方面的“专家”,这点仍然可以相信。但是在过去几年里我学到了很多有用的东西,我想将这些技巧传给其他新的 Linux 用户。
今天,我将讨论我写作时使用的工具,基于三个标准来选择:
1. 当我提交故事或文章时,我的主要写作工具必须与任何发布者兼容。
2. 该软件使用起来必须简单快捷。
3. 免费(自由)是很棒的。
有一些很棒的一体化免费解决方案,比如:
1. [bibisco][2]
2. [Manuskript][3]
3. [oStorybook][4]
但是,当我试图寻找信息时,我往往会迷失方向并失去思路,所以我选择了适合我需求的多个应用程序。另外,如果服务停止的话,我不想依赖互联网。我在监视器上设置了这些程序,以便我可以马上看到它们。
请考虑以下工具建议 - 每个人的工作方式都不相同,并且你可能会发现一些更适合你工作方式的其他应用程序。这些工具是目前的写作工具:
### Word 处理器
[LibreOffice 6.0.1][5]。直到最近,我使用了 [WPS][6]但由于字体渲染问题Times New Roman 总是以粗体显示而否定了它。LibreOffice 的最新版本非常适合 Microsoft Office事实上它是开源的这对我来说很重要。
### 词库
[Artha][7] 可以给出同义词,反义词,派生词等等。它外观干净,速度快。例如,输入 “fast” 这个词你会得到字典定义以及上面列出的其他选项。Artha 是送给开源社区的一个巨大的礼物更多的人应该尝试它因为它似乎是一个模糊to 校正者:这里模糊一次感觉不太恰当,或许是不太出名的)的小程序。如果你使用 Linux请立即安装此应用程序你不会后悔的。
### 记笔记
[Zim][8] 标榜自己是一个桌面维基,但它也是你在任何地方都能找到的最简单的多层笔记应用程序。还有其它更漂亮的笔记程序,但 Zim 正是那种我需要管理角色,地点,情节和次要情节的程序。
### Submission tracking
我曾经使用过一款名为 [FileMaker Pro][9] 的专有软件它让我心烦to 校正者:这句话注意一下)。有很多数据库应用程序,但在我看来,最简单的一个就是 [Glom][10]。它以图形方式满足我的需求,让我以表单形式输入信息而不是表格。在 Glom 中,你可以创建你需要的表单,这样你就可以立即看到相关信息(对于我来说,通过电子表格来查找信息就像将我的眼球拖到玻璃碎片上)。尽管 Glom 不再处于开发阶段,但它仍然是很棒的。
### 搜索
我已经开始使用 [StartPage.com][11] 作为我的默认搜索引擎。当然,当你写作时,[Google][12] 可以成为你最好的朋友之一。但我不喜欢每次我想了解特定人物地点或事物时Google 都会跟踪我。所以我使用 StartPage.com 来代替。它速度很快,并且不会跟踪你的搜索。我也使用 [DuckDuckGo.com][13] 作为 Google 的替代品。
### 其他的工具
[Chromium 浏览器][14] 是 [Google Chrome][15] 的开源版本,带有隐私插件。
尽管来自 [Mozilla][17] 的 [Thunderbird][16] 是一个很棒的程序,但我发现 [Geary][18] 是一个更快更轻的电子邮件应用程序。有关开源电子邮件应用程序的更多信息,请阅读 [Jason Baker][19] 的优秀文章:[6 个开源的桌面电子邮件客户端][20]。
正如你可能已经注意到,我对应用程序的喜爱趋向于在 WindowsMacOS 都能运行to 校正者:此处小心)以及此处提到的开源 Linux 替代品。我希望这些建议能帮助你发现有用的新方法来撰写并跟踪你的写作谢谢你Artha
写作愉快!
