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

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

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

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

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