I would maybe implant the chip with free software in my cerebral center so that Emacs does what I want. Until then I have to at least enter some descriptive queries to find what I mean. File system may have bookmarks, but I have not seen any sophisticated bookmarking system in any of file managers I have ever tried. Emacs is one that allows more sophisticated bookmarking. Other file managers literally suck on that. Lifting it all to one layer more, then one can note anything in the same system and tag any type of information with tags, attributes, properties, time stamps, etc. This includes physical books and DVDs located in the house or other items. It is activity similar to cataloguing, ordering. If every item is ordered at the creation time it is then a breeze to find it later. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns Sign an open letter in support of Richard M.
