Hi, I have started a personal project, with no aims to create a package yet, to create an alternative to deft. I have very specific reasons:
- Open the library to being used programatically, similar to how completing-read works. - Built around 'grep', to allow more sophisticated queries in the future. - No databases. No "Xapian"-like interfaces. No cache files. - Multiple source directories. - Focus on org-mode nodes. - Easier interface to org-mode for creating links directly from an org-mode file. The result feels pretty snappy. Reading 1000 files with 'grep' and parsing them takes less than 0.5s in an old laptop. It is so fast that I don't really feel like adding a cache around it. I feel this paradigm can scale to more interesting features, such as querying #+KEYWORD or tags in files, which I am using in my personal knowledge database. Feedback is very much welcome. This is the first such "interactive" project I start with Emacs and I am unfamiliar with the programming conventions. http://juanjose.garciaripoll.com/blog/orgnv-navigate-notes-with-grep/index.html Cheers -- Juan José García Ripoll Quantum Information and Foundations Group http://quinfog.hbar.es - http://juanjose.garciaripoll.com
