For writing I use whatever text editor I land on at the time, mostly
nvi or emacs.  I did write a small elisp function that creates boilerplate
for my gemlog posts for me.

Standalone pages are written in straight text/gmi, gemlog posts are in a
somewhat modified dialect for convenience.  The biggest difference is that
I support YAML metadata at the top so I can set the title and date of the
article.

Once I am done with whatever I am writing I commit and push to a git
repository on my server.  Once there the process is as described here:
