103 just let data slip, rather than expend the effort to record it. |
85772 | 104 |
105 ``Remember'' is a mode for remembering data. It uses whatever | |
106 back-end is appropriate to record and correlate the data, but its main | |
107 intention is to allow you to express as @emph{little} structure as | |
108 possible up front. If you later want to express more powerful | |
109 relationships between your data, or state assumptions that were at | |
110 first too implicit to be recognized, you can ``study'' the data later | |
111 and rearrange it. But the initial ``just remember this'' impulse | |
112 should be as close to simply throwing the data at Emacs as possible. | |
113 | |
114 Have you ever noticed that having a laptop to write on doesn't | |
115 @emph{actually} increase the amount of quality material that you turn | |
116 out, in the long run? Perhaps it's because the time we save | |
117 electronically in one way, we're losing electronically in another; the | |
118 tool should never dominate one's focus. As the mystic Faridu'd-Din | |
119 `Attar wrote: ``Be occupied as little as possible with things of the | |
120 outer world but much with things of the inner world; then right action | |
121 will overcome inaction.'' | |
122 | |
123 If Emacs could become a more intelligent data store, where brainstorming | |
124 would focus on the @emph{ideas} involved---rather than the structuring | |
125 and format of those ideas, or having to stop your current flow of work | |
126 in order to record them---it would map much more closely to how the mind | |
127 (well, at least mine) works, and hence would eliminate that very | |
128 manual-ness which computers from the very beginning have been championed | |
129 as being able to reduce. | |

133 @chapter Installation | |
134 | |
135 Installing Remember Mode is as simple as adding the following lines to | |
136 your Emacs configuration file (usually @file{~/.emacs.d/init.el} or | |
137 @file{~/.emacs}). | |
138 | |
139 @lisp | |
140 (add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/remember") | |
141 (require 'remember) | |
142 @end lisp | |

146 @chapter Implementation | |
147 | |
148 Hyperbole, as a data presentation tool, always struck me as being very | |
149 powerful, but it seemed to require a lot of ``front-end'' work before | |
150 that data was really available. The problem with BBDB, or keeping up | |
151 a Bibl-mode file, is that you have to use different functions to | |
152 record the data, and it always takes time to stop what you're doing, | |
153 format the data in the manner expected by that particular data | |
154 interface, and then resume your work. | |
155 | |
156 With ``remember'', you just hit @kbd{M-x remember} (you'd probably | |
157 want to bind this to an easily accessible keystroke, like @kbd{C-x | |
158 M-r}), slam in your text however you like, and then hit @kbd{C-c C-c}. | |
159 It will file the data away for later retrieval, and possibly indexing. | |

168 life to set aside a special period of time for doing this work. |
85772 | 169 |
170 ``Remember'' works in the same way. When you enter data, either by | |
171 typing it into a buffer, or using the contents of the selected region, | |
172 it will store that data---unindexed, uninterpreted---in a data pool. | |
173 It will also try to remember as much context information as possible | |
174 (any text properties that were set, where you copied it from, when, | |
175 how, etc). Later, you can walk through your accumulated set of data | |
176 (both organized, and unorganized) and easily begin moving things | |
177 around, and making annotations that will express the full meaning of | |
178 that data, as far as you know it. | |
179 | |
180 Obviously this latter stage is more user-interface intensive, and it | |
181 would be nice if ``remember'' could do it as elegantly as possible, | |
182 rather than requiring a billion keystrokes to reorganize your | |
183 hierarchy. Well, as the future arrives, hopefully experience and user | |
184 feedback will help to make this as intuitive a tool as possible. | |

209 By default, @code{remember-finalize} saves the note in @file{~/.notes}. |
85772 | 210 You can edit it now to see the remembered and timestamped note. You |
211 can edit this file however you want. New entries will always be added | |
212 to the end. | |
213 | |
214 To remember a region of text, use the universal prefix. @kbd{C-u M-x | |
215 remember} displays a @samp{*Remember*} buffer with the region as the | |
216 initial contents. | |
217 | |
218 As a simple beginning, you can start by using the Text File backend, | |
219 keeping your @file{~/.notes} file in outline-mode format, with a final | |
220 entry called @samp{* Raw data}. Remembered data will be added to the | |
221 end of the file. Every so often, you can move the data that gets | |
222 appended there into other files, or reorganize your document. | |
223 | |
224 You can also store remembered data in other backends. | |
225 (@pxref{Backends}) | |
226 | |
227 Here is one way to map the remember functions in your @file{.emacs} to | |
228 very accessible keystrokes facilities using the mode: | |
229 | |
230 @lisp | |
231 (autoload 'remember ``remember'' nil t) | |
232 (autoload 'remember-region ``remember'' nil t) | |
233 | |
234 (define-key global-map (kbd "<f9> r") 'remember) | |
235 (define-key global-map (kbd "<f9> R") 'remember-region) | |
236 @end lisp | |
237 | |
238 By default, remember uses the first annotation returned by | |
239 @code{remember-annotation-functions}. To include all of the annotations, | |
240 set @code{remember-run-all-annotation-functions-flag} to non-nil. | |
241 | |
242 @defopt remember-run-all-annotation-functions-flag | |
243 Non-nil means use all annotations returned by | |
244 @code{remember-annotation-functions}. | |
245 @end defopt | |
246 | |
247 You can write custom functions that use a different set of | |
248 remember-annotation-functions. For example: | |
249 | |
250 @lisp | |
251 (defun my/remember-with-filename () | |
252 "Always use the filename." | |
253 (interactive) | |
254 (let ((remember-annotation-functions '(buffer-file-name))) | |
255 (call-interactively 'remember))) | |
256 @end lisp | |
