Bear is a beautiful, flexible writing app for crafting notes and prose. Once you get a decent tag collection going, it can get harder to find the right one in your Sidebar.

- Go to Applications -> Bearthen right click on the icon. Select Show package contents
- Navigate to Contents -> Resources -> Custom Tag Keywords
- Open en.plist with your favorite text editor.
- You will see this:
<dict>
<key>academy</key>
<string>school</string>
Let's say you want to use your school's name as the school tag. In that case just add a new key and string like this:
<dict>
<key>harvard</key>
<string>school</string>
<key>academy</key>
<string>school</string>
Save and enter your password when the system asks you to do so, then restart Bear. Your icon should now be there. There is a chance that you will lose your custom tags when Bear updates, so keep a backup ;)
