;;
;; Revision 1.1  1997/08/03 12:15:13  os10000
;; Initial revision
;;

;; ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

;; Description:
;;
;; To get this to work, make emacs execute the line "(require 'todomode)"
;; and maybe initialise the variables below on startup.
;;
;; Then you have the following facilities available:
;;
;; M-x todo-mode              will enter the todo list screen, here type
;; p                          for the previous entry
;; n                          for the next entry
;; q                          to save the list and exit the buffer
;; e                          to edit the current entry
;; i                          to insert a new entry
;; k                          to kill the current entry
;; f                          to file the current entry, including a
;;                            comment and timestamp
;;
;; I would recommend to add the following bindings to your global keymap:
;;
;; (global-set-key "\C-ct" 'todo-mode)
;; (global-set-key "\C-ci" 'todo-cmd-inst)
;;
;; This will enable you to quickly find the todo-list, or to simply add an
;; entry, without changing to it and getting sidetracked from your current
;; project.
;;
;; I would also recommend that you execute the command
;;
;; (setq todo-prefix "*/* ")
;;
;; to have all your entries prefixed in such a way that the diary displays
;; them every day.
