Sorry to reply to my own post, but I forgot to say: having shortcuts
for assigning tags (relatively new functionality in org.el) is a GREAT
help in speeding up the categorisation process. I have this at the
end of my TODO.org:
* mode settings
:HIDE:
#+ARCHIVE: DONE.org::
#+CATEGORY: work
#+SEQ_TODO: NEXT(n) | DONE(N) | WAITING(w)
#+SEQ_TODO: PROJECT(p) | PROJDONE(P)
#+SEQ_TODO: SOMEDAY(s) MAYBE(m) | CANCELLED(c)
#+STARTUP: logdone
#+STARTUP: hidestars
#+TAGS: { @internet(i) @offline(0) @phone(p) @home(h) }
- various GTD contexts
#+TAGS: { sub10(1) sub30(3) sub60(6) sub120(2) sub4(4) subday(d) }
- rough estimates of max. time per task
#+TAGS: admin(a)
- paperwork etc.
#+TAGS: org(o)
- "sharpening the saw" - improving my self-organization process
- can overlap with computer(c) but also non-electronic organization
#+TAGS: computer(c)
- optimising the way I use it
- better config
- hacks to help workflow
