I understand Koutline to become something like store for notes. In my case I use database as store. Please note that Emacs development version has SQLite built-in, it is not really external package. And having intentionally generic functions with drivers to store information as text, as SQLite, PostgreSQL, etc -- is rather beneficial, not detrimental. Text can be default, but it is not scalable. > We welcome brief summaries of features you need for effective note taking > in Emacs.

Me personally I do require external database. Maybe I work too much, statistics may tell. Think about it, when there is external database, one can access it through multiple users from multiple devices in the world without storing (much) information on the used computer. ┌───────────────────────────────┬───────┐ │ Statistics for last 12 months │ Count │ ├───────────────────────────────┼───────┤ │ People lists │ 242 │ │ Emails sent │ 3565 │ │ Hyperscope, new objects │ 9928 │ │ Hyperscope, objects sent │ 4147 │ │ Hyperscope objects tagged │ 35642 │ │ Hyperscope, people related │ 4226 │ │ Mailings sent │ 30767 │ │ New People │ 2293 │ │ People, tagged │ 61099 │ │ SMS Sent │ 24493 │ │ New Tags │ 410 │ └───────────────────────────────┴───────┘ The feature I need is specific to customizable Hyperbole buttons to be able to detect if button was invoked by Hyperbole or not, as that way I can make self-destructive hyperlinks or universal hyperlinks that appear appropriately to lightweight markup language such as Org, markdown, asciidoctor, etc.; or to have double or tripe directional links depending of the context: activating link by Hyperbole could show me details about person in the database, but exporting the same link from Org mode could prepare Org links and "name" of person in the Org link and it could activate person's website instead of personal details. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
