I'm very early in trying a transition from LaTeX to org-mode for academic writing, trying to learn the Org way of doing things. Running Org-mode 7.7 in Emacs 23.4.1 on Win XP.
Suppose I'm writing a draft of a research proposal and come to some part that I may want to consider changing, after I think about it some more, check with others, or reassess my resources. In LaTex, I'd write something like this: % need to look into this further, check with so-and-so and keep writing on the next line. How does one do this well in Org-mode? With a # comment character? Or does this become a TODO item? Of course, I wouldn't want that little "note to self" to appear in any final document. But I might want it to remain in the source file, to document my line of reasoning. Thanks. --Chris -- Christopher W.
