Planner
Planner is an organizer and day planner which extends Emacs
Muse. It helps you keep
track of completed and pending tasks, daily schedule, notes,
and other information, such as inspirations, in a collection of
semi-structured plain text files. It is a powerful tool not only for
managing your time and productivity, but also for keeping within easy
keystroke reach all of the information you need to be productive.
The software can even automatically publish reports charting
your work for your personal web
page, your conscience, or your soon-to-be-impressed boss.
It puts all of the Emacs PIM pieces together: BbdbMode
(addresses), EmacsMuse (linking of notes and publishing), etc. This
allows you to easily write notes, link to other notes, link to dates,
link to addresses, link to – everything.
Features include:
- Task management: Maintain a list of tasks cross-linked
between Daily pages and Project pages
- Note taking: Create a note in a temporary buffer while in
any other emacs buffer. Choose a Project for the note and it will
appear on the Project page and the Daily page
- Diary integration: Diary entries can be displayed in the
Daily pages
- Context aware: All the above actions can be made context
aware, with hyperlinks back to the context. Thus a note taken while
visiting a gnus email message will have a link back to that message. A
task composed while visiting a buffer will have a link to the file in
the buffer. PlannerMode
helps take the drudgery out of leaving an annotated trail of crumbs for
work that you have done.
- EmacsMuse: All notes can have links to other notes, Project
pages, Daily pages,
mail messages, bbdb entries, web pages, files on your harddrive. You
can include images. All the power and simplicity of a wiki language is
there as part of your planning package
