In exactly the same line of sight, I'm using the following already for (pure)
LaTeX -- I mean, not yet integrated within Org --:
#+begin_src latex
% must be loaded after url and hyperref
\RequirePackage[colorinlistoftodos]{todonotes}% (not in medium TeX Live
installation)
\renewcomman...@todonotes@backgroundcolor}{my-color-brand}
\renewcomman...@todonotes@linecolor}{my-color-brand}
\newcounter{mycomment}
\newcommand{\mycomment}[2][]{% initials of the author + note in the margin
\...@mycomment
\refstepcounter{mycomment}
{\setstretch{0.7}% spacing
\todo[color={red!100!green!33},size=\small]{%
\textbf{Comment [\uppercase{#1}\themycomment]:}~#2}}
\else
\relax
\fi
}
\newcommand{\mytodo}[2][]{% title in bold + note
\refstepcounter{mycomment}
{\todo[inline,color=blue!20]{
\textbf{TODO [\uppercase{#1}\themycomment]:}~#2}}}
#+end_src
This is using the package =todonotes= which is, euh, excellent! Just have a
look, and you see that, with the above chunk of code, we can easily manage:
- mycomment :: margin notes (more for a comment, IMHO) and
- mytodo :: inlined notes (more for "inline tasks", IMHO).
Of course, this should now be automagically used by Org, as you do explain
above.
Best regards,
Seb
