ABSTRACT

Org-mode is a large Emacs sub-systems that has been integrated into
Emacs with the version 22.1 release. From it original intend,
Org-mode is a system for structured note-taking and project planning.
It uses strictly plain text files, making it a truly portable,
system-independent solution. The project-planning features are
implemented using a fairly simple outlining paradigm, upon which
meta-data concepts like due dates, priorities, TODO states and tags
are overlayed in a non-intrusive way. Besides outlining the system
and its basic concepts, I will give background information into the
history of Org-mode and discuss the properties of such an evolved
system compared to a top-down designed one. Finally, I will also
briefly touch on some technical aspects that may be interesting for
Emacs wizards and developers.

  • Bravo! Org-mode is a great piece of emacs hackering. It's very easy to learn incrementally - I started using it effectively within the first hour of discovering it, and I will make heavy use of some of the features presented in this video - particularly the integration with calc.

    My compliments and thanks to Professor Dominik for his work, and to Google for making this and other TechTalks available to the public.

  • GTD should be part of the title for this for those searching for GTD related things

  • FYI, org mode evolved immensely to date. mainly exporters got lot better. babel gone to new heights by supporting dozens of programming languages(literate programming, reproducable research stuff). markup is almost formalized, org-element is now finished which was asked by first questioner in this video..

    One way to put is, I only use tiny part of the org features but I feel like a hero among my friends/labmates..

  • there's "vim-orgmode" now, though, search for it.

  • 6 people are Vim users.

  • @sleepersix: TV Raman wrote a little thing called emacspeak, which hooks a speech synth into emacs such that every aspect of the interface can be spoken aloud by the computer. In so far as you can do *anything* you might want to do with a computer inside of emacs... well, he can write code, email, chat, play in the shell, whatever -- and emacs will read it all aloud to him, very, very quickly.

  • 08:04 Microsoft Word considered to be [INDISTINCT] according to whoever transcribed the video. :-)

  • I'm curious, how does that guy write code if he is blind?

  • I literally love org-mode. I do all my work in it.

  • Emacs is a electronic machintosh!
