I can never remember the table format syntax, so I have a couple of notes in my Zettelkasten as cheat sheets. This demo shows everything you could learn from the docs, but seeing how the document changes and how cross-references work is a much better experience than reading code snippets!
In my quest for an easier emacs on ramp, I made an org file for adding templated elisp source block sections to itself, which tangles to an elisp file, to be loaded on startup.
Been trying trying out @logseq. I love that I can just dump everything and it will organize it for me! What I like: #notes are stored locally in markdown files (can backup w github), #orgmode compatibility, and ofc #foss. Althought I'd love to see a #vim editing plugin :) https://logseq.com/
In my "play time" with #Obsidian as an #orgmode user I haven't felt like I trust this app for many reasons. One is that I have installed too many plugins and now it’s overly complicated/bloated - I don't even want to open it. Time to dumb it back down and if it still doesn't stick then keep using #orgmode. The only reason I've been testing it out is a desire for a better iOS experience with my notes.
The simplicity to accomplish this result is incredible. Similar things can be accomplished in #vim too.
Modern editors have to expose configuration flags for such features. Which are indeed easier to use if present, but less configurable and less composable.
Hey #PKM people, as it seems fashionable here to humblebrag by posting screenshots of graphs: What exactly are the benefits of a graph view? Aren't bi-directional links just simpler and thus more effective?
@nickanderson@ledaj@gisiger In my opinion, org-roam-ui is currently the only practical graph that has various filters. It allows you to visually see the structure and connections of your knowledge, understand the boundaries of your knowledge, and identify areas that require further exploration. Additionally, https://github.com/ikoamu/publish-org-roam-ui this project also enables you to view graphs online and even use it as a blog because it supports LaTeX preview. #emacs#orgmode
As this is yet another Emacs org-mode update, and several people comments on those, I created Emacs org-mode category on my blog with its own dedicated RSS feed: https://taonaw.com/categories/emacs-org-mode/feed.xml
Doing both requires much effort: double modifications, double backups, ...
Don't know what to do.
Just for (technical) reference, rhe page is written in simple #OrgMode markup and automagically exported to HTML.
Ideas?
I'm trying to use #orgmode as a replacement for #jupyter. I'm wondering if others use Org that way, and what their solutions are for getting inline plots/images. Ideally I'd like to be able to get regular stdout output and plot output from the same code block as you can in jupyter, and then have the image show up inline at a reasonable size without having to manually mess with filenames, image sizes or adjust headers every time I want to do that.
@0x4d6165 notmuch. The coolest "trick", but also curse at the same time, in my opinion is to store all mail locally. Combined with local #orgmode files this can become a reliable autarkic knowledge base. Following a reference to an email from inside an org-mode file will always work immediately, no network request needed. Curse, because it requires custom setup to load mails into the system, and to sync metadata (notmuch's tags) between machines.
I love #orgmode, but there is an idiosyncrasy in org-capture's that seems atrocious to me. Whenever I go to capture a note, the capture buffer deletes all windows that are open except one, and splits it so only that window and the org-capture window are visible. As far as I can tell this is the behavior regardless of what your settings for display-buffer are.
This seems to be because instead of respecting display-buffer settings it uses delete-other-windows to ignore them instead. I can advise it to ignore delete-other-windows, which is better, but it still undoes any changes I make to my window layout while the org-capture buffer is open. Secondly, it also doesn't restore #EXWM windows properly. I cannot fathom why the maintainers would ignore a user's display-buffer preferences.
This is bad enough that I'm thinking about abandoning org-roam, (and probably any other org-capture based workflows). I carefully curate my window layout so that I have the information needed available to me. Org-capture decides that it knows better, and leaves me with a highly inefficient workflow for accessing the information I need to make my note. I just don't understand the rationale here.
If anyone knows a workaround to this insanity, please let me know.
I did not want to use the github link in the package.
A simple #Emacs mode which shows the clocked time today in the modeline. It uses the time clocked in org-agenda-files. The main goal is to always see how much I already worked, so I see more easily whether it is time to stop. #orgmode#productivity
