Hi, I am starting a PhD and I need a tool to take notes and organize them. My editor is vim since a while, so why not using vim for this. To organize my notes, I was thinking of a wiki; so I try the viki script, which works fine, but I want to know what do you think about it? Should I use a real wiki, and edit each page with vim ? Should I continue to viki ? Something else (wikipediafs,zim editor, another text based wiki : dokuwiki, moinmoin wiki, hatta ?) ?
What I don't like with viki is the inability to make a real wiki editable with a browser from the files, and vice-versa. (if I edit a page with my browser, how to update the viki files ?) In a first time, I don't really need this feature, but in a second time, if I want to exchange this note with my director, would be great if he can comment some part of the note with a web browser. Here is a sample of how I work : What I do, is for example, taking notes at a reunion like : - we speak about this stuff.; and.. - todo : read the paper by bla about blabla - send mail to .. bla etc.. after that, I read the paper, and take note about it : resume : it really speak about bla with bla bla.; I like the way.. the file is here : http://bla.com/blabla.pdf and after that, I write a paper using latex, and need to cite the different papers that I read (I use latex + bibtex for this). So how do you do for managing this kind of things, how to organize it ? (for each papers should I do a file that contain my note about it, the bibtex entry, and a link to the pdf ?) And a more out of ml topic : - Do you know some guide to organize your work specially during a phd ? - Do you know a good spell and grammar checker (running under linux) for english (I have a really low english level) ?
