I've been in my new "simple GTD" system for about a week, and it feels very comfortable. Thanks again to Carsten and to the org-mode community.
Now I see what was wrong with my previous uses of org-mode. I never used any keywords other than TODO and DONE. This didn't give enough information, so it meant that every task I might possibly ever do had a TODO item. Because of the absurd number of TODO's I never used the agenda feature much, and therefore didn't schedule many things; I relied on my cell-phone for scheduling appointments, and never set deadlines in my personal coding projects. Now I am scheduling more things, and using the agenda views regularly. But I am still having one problem. Right now I have a section in my One Big Orgfile that looks like this: > * Books > ** TODO Read "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus" > *** DONE Find out about Wittgenstein's notation > *** NEXT Chapter 5 > *** TODO Chapter 6 > *** TODO Chapter 7 > *** TODO Review entire book > *** MAYBE [[http://s22318.tsbvi.edu/mathproject/appB-sec1.asp][Spoken > mathematics]] > ** TODO Read "The Analysis of Mind" > *** NEXT Chapter 1 This gives in the agenda: dto: Scheduled: NEXT Chapter 5 dto: Scheduled: NEXT Chapter 1 Without any indication which book the chapters are from. Can I fix this with properties or tags or categories or something? -- David O'Toole [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dto.freeshell.org/notebook/ _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
