Good idea. Here is a list of possible conventions for the manual: - use "keyword" for TODO keyword - use "tasks" for entries that have a keyword - use "entries" for other entries (or entries "in general") - use "heading" when referring to the entry as "outline-able" - use "headline" in the context of exporting/publishing Maybe some typesetting conventions wouldn't hurt, too: - use uppercase for KEYWORD - use uppercase for drawers and special PROPERTIES - capitalized the first letter for user-defined properties - use lower-case for tags Maybe this would help make the examples even more clearer. This is especially crucial when if comes to complex agenda searches.
