Hi There!
Until now I've taken notes and did extracts/abstracts of the books I had
to read by hand, i.e. with pen & paper.
Now I want to switch to the digital world... What could be more natural
than using emacs, because I already use it with AucTeX to create my
latex documents.
What I basically need is ordering of the abstracts and full-text search
for my notes. Printing the notes would be useful, too.
Google brought up several modes; org-mode seems promising, but I never
tried it before.
How do you take notes? Any special suggestions? I thought it could be
helpful to ask on this list before trying out several modes...
Thanks & Regards,
Fred
Hi, the file attached stores data together with it's location.
Call `M-x note-with-url' with an active region.
It's designed to take notes from Emacs-w3m browser, but works with any
buffer.
Notes are stored in files setting up variables listing paired entries
like this:
(setq nwu-example
(quote
(list
("Thanks to many of the other people for the great
contributions." . "http://emacs-w3m.namazu.org/")
("Vor dem Bundesfinanzhof müssen sich die Beteiligten
durch Prozessbevollmächtigte vertreten lassen. Dies gilt
auch für Prozesshandlungen, durch die ein Verfahren vor
dem Bundesfinanzhof eingeleitet wird." .
"/MY-LOCAL/PATH/gesetze/rechtsberatungsrecht.txt")
)))
When taking notes from Emacs Mail, remember.el will be more suitable maybe.
Andreas
