Just thought:
When I was writing the book "The Creative Wordsmith's Toolkit" I got my cousin to proofread it. He commented that he & his mates, while writing songs, used one group of wheezes and amalgamated it into a concept that required a word.

The concept was grabbing the idea with recording devices : paper/pencil, pocket memo, your own answer phone, computer, smart phone.

I called it WRIT (Write, Record, Immediately Thereafter". They then referred to any such device as a "writter". Sort works on a "don't rely on your memory, get it documented" sort of level.
