What I would like is to keep my ideas in their context and not separately. Ideally I just want to write my meeting notes as usual but be able to somehow mark certain sections as ideas to come back to later. I keep my real todos, the ones I want to work on, separately as you suggest. > ### IDEA 2 ### > - a remember template for ideas? > - file keystrokes set to set the file to a particular project's file with a > simple key entry? > - or... one file called 'ideas.org' divided by projects (or just tag idea > headlines with the project name) > --- then use remember-mode to add ideas to that file when you're in > meetings/taking notes in a different, dedicated project file? Same as above... I really really would like some feature to be able to highlight some part of my text (or even better a list item) as an idea. This way my ideas could be interspersed in the level I'm in. It doesn't seem logical to me to create a new heading for each idea in the middle of my notes. === project1.org === * journal ** meeting 1 notes... - idea 1 :idea: - idea 2 :idea: notes contd... (this is same level still as notes above under heading "meeting 1") * tasks ** todo1 *** subtask1 ** todo2 > I'm so new I can hardly believe I'm proposing these ideas as I don't even > know that I know everything necessary to implement them!

It's fun to share ideas! /Ali _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
