Dear All,
I'm really an org-mode beginner and even more I'm a bloody emacs-lisp
beginner. Nevertheless, I try to understand here and there who things
work out and tweak some things here and there. Nothing which might be
worse to share yet .... but I'm on my way to learn about the internals
of org-mode.
Normally I start to consult the manual and see if I could achive what I
am looking for by the given function set of org-mode. If I concern a lot
I try to dig down threw the source-code for different functions to see
how they work.
I wonder whether it might be possible to add a footnote to every
explained function with a link to the source-file.
By this way it would be much easier to find the desired code-lines.
Maybe bug-fixing will be easier as well. I assume there are many
org-mode users with solid lisp knowledge who might be able to help
bug-fixing but who have no idea where to find the necessary code.
I know I can use C-h a in emacs to search for the desired function and
jump to the lisp code. Just thought some redundancy in the manual might
help to attract more people to contribute.
Since the manual and the lisp files are plain text, it might be easy to
write a function which does this automatically?!
Furthermore, after I thought about this I started to wonder whether
org-mode + babel could be used to literally program org-mode itself.
This would result in a very nice developer manual and is a very nice
example to literate programming.
Just some thoughts
Bye
Torsten
