I may be the only person using Ulysses (would love to hear from you if you are too) it’s a great writing tool. Here’s my thought on that app. Currently Ulysses gives you the options “Draft,” “Published,” and “Scheduled.” I think it would be amazingly cool if M.b worked with Ulysses to add an “Edit” option - which would obviously do a “replace” function. I think MarsEdit will replace because it uses an internal id on each post but Ulysses does not appear to do that. I realize this probably isn’t a huge priority and would require working with the app to implement, but it would be a stand-out feature, at least for me. I’m enjoying M.b. I think it is a great service.

@bradjadkins I’m using Ulysses and I only discovered M.b when it was added to the latest update. I’ve posted to M.b using Ulysses a couple of times and agree that an edit function would be a great addition.
To be clear, this will not require Manton to work with Ulysses— the Micro.blog API already supports this. Ulysses would have to decide to do it, so I recommend you provide that feedback to Ulysses.

Personally I did during the beta testing phase of version 22.

I use Ulysses daily as well, though I’m brand new to micro.blog. I like the idea, I use a couple social medias now but I’m not happy with them from a public posting point of view.
From just a quick look over the interface, I agree an edit/replace option would be a big feature.
Been using Ulysses for a few years now and discovered micro.blog through this feature. Awesome partnership, glad I know about M.b this way!

Just wanted to comment so I could be counted as another Ulysses user. It really is a great piece of software and I think the subscription model is working out great for users in terms of promoting a “sane” feature release schedule. I agree that “edit”/“replace” functionality is an important next step for M.b support, I will make a point to request that of the good coders from Austria…
This feature is being developed by the folks at Ulysses. Here is the source, though the tweet with the request has since been deleted.
Ulysses is an incredible app. I’ve tried other writing apps, especially for novels, and always end up going back to Ulysses again. I also love that Ulysses enabled me to find this wonderful app.
I discovered micro.blog through Ulysses. Bravo! Thanks!
I got into 503 Service Unavailable. When offline, I will be microblogging on this app.
I confirm, Ulysses is very nice tool 
@Moondeer Since my new theme is now using shortcodes, every time I try and type them into Ulysses it keeps coming up with an annotation window and this screws up the {{< >}} character entries. Is there a setting in Ulysses I can change to get this working, or a workaround when I’m entering the shortcode that it doesn’t try and do anything with it?
Jason you rock, thank you so much sir!

Now that, I agree with you. it’s taken me nearly this long (and that’s at least two months),and I’m still only have the first line of one of my shortcuts written out.
