Get Things Done

Well I’ve used Emacs planner for more than 2 years everyday, and really happy about it.
However, as I got more and more rely on it, I can still find some room for improvement, but not easy to do:

It is all text based. This is good in some way, but bad in some other way. Say […]

get annotation from firefox

Most of the time I use Firefox to visit my ticket system and making a task there is not as easy as in w3m.
Here’s how my way of getting the annotation improves:

At the very beginning I just copy the URL from Firefox and paste to w3m-browse-url, and make annotation there. This is not very convience, […]

trac and planner

Well I’ve used to use roundup as my ticket system. However the intergration of a ticket system and a version control system of trac attract me these days. So I decided to give it a try.
There’s noting to say about installation thanks to the FreeBSD ports system. And it really nice to have the version […]

export notes to pyblosxom

well I decide to give this up.
The main reason is that muse-blosxom-new-entry makes the file name from blog title. I think it’s a good idea. But that make me harder, if possible, to keep the planner notes sync with blog entries.
What’s more, I might use different sub-set of muse features on planner and blog. Like […]

OK, I’ll go with the official hardcodedates.py

And this will save some confusing about versions. I can give time 00:00 for notes without a note taken timestamp. Anyway this is what Michael give for blog files with only date in the timestamps file.

markup the notes

Sacha pastes this on #emacs. I think I can tweak this to do the region render. Nice!
"Mark up STRING according to `emacs-wiki-publishing-rules’.
No header or footer is added."
(let ((emacs-wiki-project emacs-wiki-current-project))
(with-temp-buffer
(emacs-wiki-mode)
(insert string)
(let ((emacs-wiki-publishing-header "")
(emacs-wiki-publishing-footer ""))
(emacs-wiki-replace-markup))
(buffer-string))))

I can use unison to sync the comments

unison can sync two directories, which are changing on both side. It updates that do not conflict are propagated automatically. Conflicting updates are detected and displayed.
This is perfet for the comments back and force of planner-pyblosxom: people can comment on the blog via web interface, and I can reply comments within Emacs, even off-line. And […]

Prevent tasks lines from being wrapped

Keith Amidon posted this in the list:
(lambda ()
(setq auto-fill-inhibit-regexp "^#[ABC] +[_oX].*")
(setq truncate-lines t)))

new idea: planner-pyblosxom

After playing with muse-blosxom.el, (emacs-wiki-)blosxom.el, remember-blosxom.el and pyblosxom, I found it’s pretty wired that I’m writting everything in my planner page, while I’d have to write something again for my blog. Also that means I’d have to keep a seperate set of data, and it’s not an easy work to keep them synced.
The ideal thing […]

Mason, planner-auth, and FreeBSD

Well getting all of them working together is not a trival work for a Perl newbie like me. Andway I’ve found my way in, so here’s some notes:
The Mason doc by “perldoc HTML::Mason” suggested to run Mason with mod_perl, However, that requires /usr/ports/www/p5-libapreq2. It took me some time to find this out and then I […]
