Been copying text manually from web pages into my #Zettelkasten since last June.

A year into my journey, I realise, I could’ve just used Adam Porter’s (#alphapapa) org-web-tools package to scrape it straight into my org file! [1] Just select the link, M-x org-web-tools-insert-web-page-as-entry and …
Boom!
The whole page!
Properly formatted! In my org file!

Better late than never 😂

[1] which I had installed and ready all the time!

#TIL: with #Emacs #OrgMode

I wanted to expand all my entries in my Org file, to see how large it had gotten, so I looked up how to do it.

To expand all tabs (org-show-all)
C-u C-u Tab

To close tabs to the startup visibility of the buffer (org-set-startup-visibility)
C-u C-u C-u Tab

Tada!

#TIL in #Emacs and #OrgMode:

If i want to timestamp an entry, I use C-c .
and if I want to do this *without* causing it to appear in the agenda, I use C-c !

The second step is pretty handy for me to date my entries in my decision journal.
I want to keep track of when I made a significant decision and my rationale behind it.
But, not something I want popping up in my agenda :)

if someone ever asks me about #OrgMode again, I’ll just point them to Aditya’s post at https://www.evalapply.org/posts/why-and-how-i-use-org-mode/index.html

P.S. also Thank you Aditya, for introducing me to Gentium Book Plus
