I somehow cannot relate to it, Hyperbole and Org mode are quite
different things. I have Hyperbole all the time here running, no
matter if I use Org mode or what other lightweight markup language.
Let's say there is region marked, I use sometimes Hyperbole to search
Internet for marked term. That is not related and not comparable to
Org mode which is meant to handle markup in a text file.
Hyperbole is what it says, extravagant exaggeration. It is meta to
Org.
I have specific window setup with different buffers and I want to
remember it, then I use Hyperbole {C-h h w n a} to remember it.
One can understand it by running demo {C-h h d d}, it is not related
to Org mode, it is to be used in Emacs over anything, regardless of modes.
