Type a slash to insert almost anything. Headings, lists, tasks, tables, code, maths, dates and more, without leaving the keyboard. Keep typing to narrow it down, then press Enter.

Markdown tables, without counting pipes. Every cell is a real input. Tab walks across, the arrow keys step between cells, and the columns keep themselves lined up in the file. Add rows and columns, move them, delete them, from the menu on any column.

Your tables can do arithmetic. Open the menu on any column and choose Calculate. Sum, average, median, minimum, maximum or range, worked out from the rows and kept up to date. The same menu formats a column as a number, a percentage or a currency, and aligns it left, centre or right.

Long notes fold out of the way. Hover a heading and a chevron appears. Click it and everything under that heading collapses, so a long note becomes its own outline. Lists fold the same way. Any item with children gets a chevron of its own.

Numbered lists, eight ways. The List style button offers decimal, multilevel, outline, upper and lower roman, upper and lower letters, and padded decimal. Pick one and the list redraws. Your file keeps ordinary one dot, two dot markers, with a single comment recording the style, so the note stays readable anywhere else.

Turn a line into a real task. Hover a checklist item and Pellet offers to convert it. The line becomes a task with its own note behind it. It still reads as a checkbox in your file, but it now carries a priority, a due date, and it turns up in the Table, the Kanban and the Calendar.

Footnotes that stay out of the way. Write a marker where you want the reference, and the note itself further down. Pellet collapses the marker to its number. The definition sits at the bottom of the file, out of the way of the sentence you are writing, and the reference reads as a footnote should.

Hide the syntax, even under your cursor. Normally the markers show on the line you are editing, so you can see what you are changing. Turn on hide markdown at the cursor and they stay hidden. The line you are writing looks exactly like the finished text.

Here's a quick Pellet tip: keeping a window on top. Drag a tab out of the window, and it becomes a window of its own. Click the thumbtack in the title row, or press option, command, P. Now it stays above everything else while you work. Click it again to release. Pellet remembers it with the window.

Pellet zero point twenty-one is here. Here's what's new. Selective sync lets you decide what each device carries, and what the group stores at all. Rules by folder, file kind or size. Nothing already on a device is deleted. Or switch off whole file kinds, so video and audio never land here. Numbered lists get eight styles. Decimal, multilevel, outline, roman, letters. Your file keeps ordinary markers. Colour the calendar by type or status. Pellet remembers the choice for each vault. Torn-off windows gained focus mode, and a thumbtack to keep one above everything else. And markdown can stay hidden under the cursor, so the line you are editing stays formatted. There's plenty more in this release. The full notes are on the site.
