Org Mode is a markup language. A part of the Emacs, it's often used for notebook-like computing, writing documentation, and preparing static files for services like this one.

I bought into the dreams of "doing everything in Org-mode" for awhile, but, while nice and convenient, the system ultimately is not intended to be some expressive database for all of these different types of data1 cached in plain text. It's a decent document format that's annoying and difficult to parse, but I have a ton of legacy work in Org so I'm going to stick with the format in part throughout my notes.

This post and the emacs docs are incredibly helpful for documentation.

Basic Formatting

The structure of an org-mode file is defined with nested headings.

: * Heading 1
: ** Heading 2
: *** Heading 3
: *** And so forth...

It supports several flavors of text:

*bold*, /italic/, _underlined_, +strikethrough+, =monospace=.

Links are rendered [[https://jacob.chvatal.com][with description]]
or without: https://karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmode-as-markup-only/

Lists can be
- ordered
  - have sub-headings
    1. support enumeration
    2. as needed
- have definitions :: true.
+ works as well
- [ ] can be unfinished
- [X] or complete

: or rendered as preformatted text.

def logical():
    return f'Org mode can also'
           f'render code from many languages!'

echo "it supports any language that is supported by Emacs"

return "and can even display the result of evaluated code!"
print("Sometimes...")
It Contains Great Tables
42 With
Native Support!

|-----|-----| |tables without headers | asdf| |hjkl | should also be well-supported |

It has a single standard, and isn't a 'flavor' of markdown or rst2!

Plugins

The best part about org mode isn't its simplicity and flexibility – its that it has become an integral component of the Emacs ecosystem.

The format has support for calendars, TODO lists, and READMEs, so it's flexible enough to express a variety of ideas that are conducive to a primarily text-based user interface.

[2019-10-04] Weekly /r/Orgmode Open Discussion - October 04, 2019 /r/orgmode

Here's another discussion [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11718401/how-to-use-todo-tags-in-org-mode-without-defining-headings](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11718401/how-to-use-todo-tags-in-org-mode-without-defining-headings)

[2019-10-04] Weekly /r/Orgmode Open Discussion - October 04, 2019 /r/orgmode

There's no way to do that, and it would probably be very messy to implement.  But try "inline tasks."

[2019-10-04] Weekly /r/Orgmode Open Discussion - October 04, 2019 /r/orgmode

 While it is not a solution, i use checkboxes i these kind of situations. Another workaround could be to create a checklist underneath the top heading and link to the subheadings.

 ```
 * FooBar

 Some text

 - foo
 - [ ] [[*bar][bar]]

 Some more text

 ** foo
 ** TODO bar
 SCHEDULED ...
```

> One big drawback with Org mode (and I believe most of outline/task list formats) though is that if you insert child outline items in the middle of text, it would structurally break it in two parts, so you'd have to append > your commend to the end of current outline (which can be potentially very long). On the other hand, plain list items, which you can insert in arbitrary place, are very limited and don't support most of things outline support like tags, timestamps, priorities etc.

FYI, org mode has inline tasks (org-inlinetask.el)

use org-agenda-open-link, set up def browser

hmm, unclear how to emulate RTM behavior with creating new task in regular time periods..

if I set scheduled=deadline, and then postpone via updating schdule, it doesn't really seem to work as expected :(
so, I could set recurring deadline (with ++ cookie?) and use scheduled. Also hide deadline entries which are before scheduled date for recurring tasks

hmm, wondering what happens to deadline when task completes?
display as 'postponed'? also for repeating tasks only

[2019-10-22] Rethink: Org mode meets professional web design /r/emacs [[org]]

Hi all,
I recently posted a link on here about an org mode export template called [Imagine](https://jessekelly881-imagine.surge.sh/). I have been working on a new(and I believe much better) template recently called [Rethink](https://jessekelly881-rethink.surge.sh/). Yes, I know the name isn't the best.
So far they are just works in progress but I plan to create a smallish collection. I started this because I was looking for good css templates targeted at org mode and I was disappointed by the severe lack of them. Hopefully, someone will find these useful. Again, they are still wip but maybe with a little help from some helpful web designer we can make them much better.
Also, if you find any bugs or things you wish were different feel free to comment or contact me on [Github](https://github.com/jessekelly881). Thanks!

Defining filters for individual files
The Org export can filter not just for back-ends, but also for specific files through the ‘BIND’ keyword. Here is an example with two filters; one removes brackets from time stamps, and the other removes strike-through text. The filter functions are defined in a code block in the same Org file, which is a handy location for debugging.

[2019-05-18] Weekly /r/Orgmode Open Discussion - May 10, 2019 /r/orgmode [[toblog]] [[publish]]

I would really like to see a book written on org mode taking someone from nothing to having their whole life organised by org mode. The manual is good to find out how stuff works but you kinda need to know what you want to do beforehand. It would be great if something could also show you what is possible, stuff I wouldn't have even thought of...

name: "You need more Org in your life" or something? [[org]]

refile was hard to appreciate until I got used to navigating among multiple files and using several files as org agenda sources [[toblog]] [[org]]

motivation for collecting agenda files by myself: emacs is slow and buggy [[blog]] [[org]]

e.g. agenda tries to include lock files!

[2021-01-24] not sure what I meant there?

Mention that it's very easy to get lost in org features [[toblog]] [[pkm]] [[org]]

[2019-09-29] could actually blog why is it org mode vs markdown vs yaml/whatever for me

org-capture main motivation: it's immediately in my filesystem. [[grasp]]

I don't need a dedicated day when I'm manually moving things from bookmarks
If i add a 'drill' tag, it would be added to my spaced repetition queue immediately.
It becomes plain text searchable immediately, at which point I can find it by vaguely remembering link title.

[2019-10-08] capture: often I'd put a quick tag if I expect myself to search for that outline later (e.g. if I need to buy something), or if it's some thought related to one of the projects I'm doing. If it's something I really need to remember I'd also schedule it.

Otherwise I try to spend as little time capturing TODO ??? I found premature organizing to be too time consuming and often distrupting thinking.

[2019-10-08] capture: I find it less distracting to keep logs (e.g. quantified self style, like sleep, exercise, weight etc) in a separate file.

TODO post about my automatic parsing and extraction?

(in post about capture) [[grasp]]

It's pretty stupid, but such a conceptually simple tool is one of the most useful things I've developed
It instantly ends up in my knowledge repository, immediately accesible by search, agenda etc

What’s awesome is that at the time of capture it immediately becomes searchable and indexable as any plaintext would without any extra effort (unlike if you added it to browser bookmarks/pinboard). [[grasp]]

Tecos config? Maintainer of org site [[org]]

He's the maintainer for the org-mode website now so he knows whereof he speaks

use files as todos? have a crawler go through them and put in a special tasklist [[org]]

e.g. if it contains TODO, enough already and maybe also parse tags (and timestamp?)

  • not sure about scheduling it?
  • maybe use queue – unique id (file hash?) need to be careful with empty files though
  • voit must have something

@publicvoit@graz.social thought you'd be a kind of person who knows it – is there some existing tool to crawl the filesystem and maintain an org-mode file with todos corresponding to files matching a certain pattern?

My usecase is that I often put TODO in screenshots of bugs, ideas for possible features etc; often on my phone so using [file:] links is not so convenient (+ I tend to move files around)

implement a tool for 'reviewing' tasks? [[org]]

do in python

  • go by priority/oldest created/etc
  • exclude some tags?
  • keep state (use some simple SR algo?)
    just use hash of the heading? seems quite enough
  • jump to the file/line via mimemacs?

hmm wonder if possible to display org stuff on remarkable? at least reflect views? and exobrain? [[remarkable]] [[org]]
