Carsten -- Yes, it is nice to code having a design spec that is already fleshed out and time-tested in the real world. I know there's a huge amount of time, effort, and careful decision making that's gone into the design of Org-mode. It feels good to be able to piggy- back off of it. I just wish I knew Emacs and elisp a little better so I could see how certain functions were implemented in it. Some things seem obvious; I expect I'm doing them very similarly in Vim to the way they were done in Org-mode. Other things, not so much.
