I'm confused why e062ca719 (org.el: Use `defalias' for priority aliases, 2020-02-24) did the exact opposite reversal, but your patch looks obviously correct. Applied in 097b4e6ca, filling in the commit message.

Does some of what I need, but I differ in some design choices: - I prefer the incremental search scheme a-la-deft instead of dired. - I also do not care for file names and prefer to have editable titles / summaries. - A reason for this is that I care about linking and backlinking notes. Fixing file name <-> title association makes the database static and difficult to edit. - I am also into having multiple folders for separating big categories and areas of interest (hence the recursive approach). - I also would like to attach multimedia / PDF's / images to the notes as linked or embedded assets. This is easy if directories are allowed and files filtered by extension.

Juan, You might take a look at my 'scraps' package. I created it a little while back and it does a fair amount of what you mention. I've got over 3,000 files taking up over 64 MB and it's still quite fast. http://www.bobnewell.net/filez/scraps.zip -- Bob Newell Honolulu, Hawai`i - Via Gnus/BBDB/Org/Emacs/Linux

OrgNV - alternative to deft
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
Re: Org mode for meeting minutes
Just for your amusement: I've developed a very different but effective way of taking minutes with org-mode that uses just lists and enumerations. I have been using this solution for more than a year on a daily basis and I'm really happy with it (and colleagues don't complain). Speed, simplicity and readability for non-emacsers is critical in my job, so the solutions you are proposing would be overkill. You can have a look at the style and code here: https://github.com/timmli/org-minutes-dev Any feedback is greatly appreciated. But keep in mind that the code is not polished at all -- this is a hobby project of an elisp dilettante.

export org tables to html, configure the borders
Hi I have the following table #+begin_src | Product | online clases with pdf | share screen | whiteboard | stability of the connection | |-+-+---+---+-| | collaborate | yes | not with the iPad | yes but | disconnects every 30 min| | | | | big letter distortion | | | | | | de delete function| | | | | | does not work properly: | | | | | | all the text gets deleted | | |-+-+---+---+-| | Google meet | yes | yes with the iPad | there is none | disconnects every 5 min once| | | | | | share screen is activated | |-+-+---+---+-| | zoom| yes | yes with the iPad | decent whiteboard | very well, however the free version | | | | | | only allows 40 min sessions | |-+-+---+---+-| #+end_src Now I would like to export it to html precisely with these vertical and horizontal borders. The standard setting of org-html-table-default-attributes is (:border "2" :cellspacing "0" :cellpadding "6" :rules "groups" :frame "hsides") Which does not insert the borders. However the setting (:border "2" :cellspacing "0" :cellpadding "6" :frame "border" :rules "all") Inserts borders but to many of them, each line gets a horizontal border, which I don't want. 1. What is the correct setting 2. How can I have such a setting locally just for one table? Thanks and regards Uwe Brauer

Hi Christian, very useful blog post indeed, thank you. Thanks for finding the :match parameter and for pointing out that it is not documented in the manual. I have fixed that in org-manual.org.
