108 just let data slip, rather than expend the effort to record it. |
85772 | 109 |
110 ``Remember'' is a mode for remembering data. It uses whatever | |
111 back-end is appropriate to record and correlate the data, but its main | |
112 intention is to allow you to express as @emph{little} structure as | |
113 possible up front. If you later want to express more powerful | |
114 relationships between your data, or state assumptions that were at | |
115 first too implicit to be recognized, you can ``study'' the data later | |
116 and rearrange it. But the initial ``just remember this'' impulse | |
117 should be as close to simply throwing the data at Emacs as possible. | |
118 | |
119 Have you ever noticed that having a laptop to write on doesn't | |
120 @emph{actually} increase the amount of quality material that you turn | |
121 out, in the long run? Perhaps it's because the time we save | |
122 electronically in one way, we're losing electronically in another; the | |
123 tool should never dominate one's focus. As the mystic Faridu'd-Din | |
124 `Attar wrote: ``Be occupied as little as possible with things of the | |
125 outer world but much with things of the inner world; then right action | |
126 will overcome inaction.'' | |
127 | |
128 If Emacs could become a more intelligent data store, where brainstorming | |
129 would focus on the @emph{ideas} involved---rather than the structuring | |
130 and format of those ideas, or having to stop your current flow of work | |
131 in order to record them---it would map much more closely to how the mind | |
132 (well, at least mine) works, and hence would eliminate that very | |
133 manual-ness which computers from the very beginning have been championed | |
134 as being able to reduce. | |

139 | |
140 Installing Remember Mode is as simple as adding the following lines to | |
141 your Emacs configuration file (usually @file{~/.emacs.d/init.el} or | |
142 @file{~/.emacs}). | |
143 | |
144 @lisp | |
145 (add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/remember") | |
146 (require 'remember) | |

152 | |
153 Hyperbole, as a data presentation tool, always struck me as being very | |
154 powerful, but it seemed to require a lot of ``front-end'' work before | |
155 that data was really available. The problem with BBDB, or keeping up | |
156 a Bibl-mode file, is that you have to use different functions to | |
157 record the data, and it always takes time to stop what you're doing, | |
158 format the data in the manner expected by that particular data | |
159 interface, and then resume your work. | |
160 | |
161 With ``remember'', you just hit @kbd{M-x remember} (you'd probably | |
162 want to bind this to an easily accessible keystroke, like @kbd{C-x | |
163 M-r}), slam in your text however you like, and then hit @kbd{C-c C-c}. | |
164 It will file the data away for later retrieval, and possibly indexing. | |

173 life to set aside a special period of time for doing this work. |
85772 | 174 |
175 ``Remember'' works in the same way. When you enter data, either by | |
176 typing it into a buffer, or using the contents of the selected region, | |
177 it will store that data---unindexed, uninterpreted---in a data pool. | |
178 It will also try to remember as much context information as possible | |
179 (any text properties that were set, where you copied it from, when, | |
180 how, etc). Later, you can walk through your accumulated set of data | |
181 (both organized, and unorganized) and easily begin moving things | |
182 around, and making annotations that will express the full meaning of | |
183 that data, as far as you know it. | |
184 | |
185 Obviously this latter stage is more user-interface intensive, and it | |
186 would be nice if ``remember'' could do it as elegantly as possible, | |
187 rather than requiring a billion keystrokes to reorganize your | |
188 hierarchy. Well, as the future arrives, hopefully experience and user | |
189 feedback will help to make this as intuitive a tool as possible. | |

214 By default, @code{remember-finalize} saves the note in @file{~/.notes}. |
85772 | 215 You can edit it now to see the remembered and timestamped note. You |
216 can edit this file however you want. New entries will always be added | |
217 to the end. | |
218 | |
219 To remember a region of text, use the universal prefix. @kbd{C-u M-x | |
220 remember} displays a @samp{*Remember*} buffer with the region as the | |
221 initial contents. | |
222 | |
223 As a simple beginning, you can start by using the Text File backend, | |
224 keeping your @file{~/.notes} file in outline-mode format, with a final | |
225 entry called @samp{* Raw data}. Remembered data will be added to the | |
226 end of the file. Every so often, you can move the data that gets | |
227 appended there into other files, or reorganize your document. | |
228 | |
229 You can also store remembered data in other backends. | |
230 (@pxref{Backends}) | |
231 | |
232 Here is one way to map the remember functions in your @file{.emacs} to | |
233 very accessible keystrokes facilities using the mode: | |
234 | |
235 @lisp | |
236 (autoload 'remember ``remember'' nil t) | |
237 (autoload 'remember-region ``remember'' nil t) | |
238 | |
239 (define-key global-map (kbd "<f9> r") 'remember) | |
240 (define-key global-map (kbd "<f9> R") 'remember-region) | |
241 @end lisp | |
242 | |
243 By default, remember uses the first annotation returned by | |
244 @code{remember-annotation-functions}. To include all of the annotations, | |
245 set @code{remember-run-all-annotation-functions-flag} to non-nil. | |
246 | |
247 @defopt remember-run-all-annotation-functions-flag | |
248 Non-nil means use all annotations returned by | |
249 @code{remember-annotation-functions}. | |
250 @end defopt | |
251 | |
252 You can write custom functions that use a different set of | |
253 remember-annotation-functions. For example: | |
254 | |
255 @lisp | |
256 (defun my/remember-with-filename () | |
257 "Always use the filename." | |
258 (interactive) | |
259 (let ((remember-annotation-functions '(buffer-file-name))) | |
260 (call-interactively 'remember))) | |
