Chip Buttycan a hook remove itself?Is there a better way to do it? (I want music to start sometimes when I clock into a task in org with a timer, but I don't want it to happen every time, just when I use my special task clock in thing)<a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#emacs</a> <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/orgmode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#orgmode</a>

Omar AntolínThere are a couple of features of <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/orgmode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#orgmode</a> links in <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> that I think are underappreciated:1. They work in all buffers, not just org-mode buffers! Bind org-open-at-point-global to a globally accessible key binding and enjoy org-links everywhere. For example, I like putting info links in comments in Emacs Lisp files, like info:calc#Graphics. Remember too, that file links can include a search string, for example file:~/.emacs.d/init.el::eshell takes me right to my eshell configuration. Shell links, that execute commands, are pretty useful too, for example <shell:zip source *.c *.h>.2. It's super easy to create new link types (if you know how to program). For example, here's a new type of link for keyboard macros: (org-link-set-parameters "kbd" :follow (lambda (macro arg) (kmacro-call-macro arg t nil (kbd macro)))) With that definition you can write keyboard macros like <kbd:M-a M-f M-t> and execute them with org-open-at-point-global.

I have a few additional elisp snippets I wrote to to, for example, create summary tables that brings together captions + properties into summary tables. E.g. a table listing all TODOs in the file with links to them.The org files are versionized in git. My workflow is just plain awesome for technical writing

I always mix up the MD flavors currently at hand because I need to use different MD-enabled tools on a daily basis and all of them have their special markup variants - sometimes it's even necessary to use, e.g., different table syntax (within the same MD tool!) for different table properties such as line breaks and stuff. It's really a bad mess with MD. 😔 Btw: <a href="https://karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmode-as-markup-only/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmode-as-markup-only/</a><a href="https://graz.social/tags/LML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LML</a> <a href="https://graz.social/tags/markupsyntax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#markupsyntax</a> <a href="https://graz.social/tags/markup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#markup</a> <a href="https://graz.social/tags/syntax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#syntax</a>

fanf42Personal note taking and structuration appI'm looking for personal notes taking app that would allow to organically add structure - especially by creating inter note links and to-dos/reminders.I never used org-mode put from what I understand of it, it could be that.It needs to be floss or at the very least based on an interoperable standard (I don't know about such a thing, I would love to learn). I would need to used it on smartphone and linux laptop. If the sync relies on a private service, it needs to be eee. It needs to be able to store rich text (the markdown set we seems to converge to is OK) and images, ideally integrates with mermaid.jsI know of :<ul><li><a href="https://github.com/logseq" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://github.com/logseq</a></li><li><a href="https://joplinapp.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://joplinapp.org/</a> (but looks more like notion, it misses</li><li><a href="https://obsidian.md/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://obsidian.md/</a> (not floss)</li><li><a href="https://github.com/TriliumNext/Notes" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://github.com/TriliumNext/Notes</a> (perhaps?)</li></ul>Do you use any ?

*in <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/orgmode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#orgmode</a>, when i use at-tags in headings they get highlighted a certain way, and when i use :colon_separated_tags: they get highlighted another way. also at-tags support hyphens, where in the colon-separated ones i have to use snake_case. do these at-tags actually mean anything? i haven't found anything in the docs.

Chip ButtyThinking about <a href="https://social.sachachua.com/@sacha" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@sacha</a>'s ADHD sketchnotes, and org-pomodoro <a href="https://github.com/marcinkoziej/org-pomodoro/blob/master/org-pomodoro.el" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://github.com/marcinkoziej/org-pomodoro/blob/master/org-pomodoro.el</a>And thinking what I need is something pomodoro like, but just asks me every ~25 mins or so if I'm still working on the task I've clocked into, and if I don't say yes, it clocks me out. (just wondering how annoying that focus grabbing will work and how annoying it might be), but I think that is what I want, maybe?So I can work on something for as long as I like. I'd like to be reminded to take a break to stretch every 45-90 minutes. I'm starting to wonder if I can do this by just configuring org-pomodoro.I think the big problem is that when I fall apart, I stop looking at emacs, I will look at a bit of paper (physical tokens are good, but even they are ignorable). Is there a way I can make emacs be a speedbump before I use the rest of the computer? One that demands I clock into something, or at least review what clues I've left for my self before?I think something that let me capture things as I go, to make a list of things would be good and then a bit of a vector database to create some links between the things I come across and have it come up when I'm working on something (oh, how I loved the rememberance agent idea)<a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#emacs</a> <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/orgmode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#orgmode</a> <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/adhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#adhd</a>
