I’d like to be able to trigger a thing and to see how readable is a note I’m currently looking at.
Here’s how it looks in Zettlr:
Basically:
- Green: the sentence is easy to read.
- Light green: not perfect, but should be fine.
- Light orange: a little complex, could possibly be simplified.
- Orange: fairly complex, should be rewritten or separated into two sentences.
- Red: look at this abomination of a sentence.
Zettlr has a nice demo page, as well as Wikipedia links to four algorithms they’ve implemented: https://www.zettlr.com/readability
A little more documentation is available here: https://docs.zettlr.com/en/academic/readability/
I’m assuming that this plugin would be mostly useful to those that write output based on their notes: bloggers / journalists, script writers, copywriters and similar.
I’ve placed the #editor tag because this provides an actionable result, making it not ideal for the preview feature.
