I understand that by changing habits one can do many things. Just as user may use Emacs Window Manager, and everything is solved.

Win those who have best integration. Org is far from having best integration. Running Emacs server is not easy. Last Emacs survey has shown that just few users use it. Look here the count of users: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=notes Org Capture is 603 users, versus Firefox standard notes. Integration is what matters. I use this extension: https://github.com/vifon/org-protocol-for-firefox https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/org-protocol/ It has 45 users. It works for me without problem. Of course I do not enter information in Org, but into PostgreSQL database, as not to waste time and efforts later. > > I don't know which quoted text you mean and how to add page URL to > > quoted text. > > I mean a note consisting of page title, page URL, and a quote with text > selected on the page.

Emacs Lisp is just glue to PostgreSQL, so I never had problem with compatibility of SQL to some newer versions, that is why there are standards involved. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
