I think this might meet your needs. You can configure it fairly easily to do some pretty useful stuff. I've seen examples of usinig it to jsut keep notes in a notes file. I already have used both modes (org and remember) but they need many tweaking to fully suit my (basic) needs and I am always struggling to stay connected/concentrated on what I need to write vs. my obsessive desire to tweak/customize my setup. As I have already told on another post, maybe you are right and Org is really what I need. Maybe not. Planner is another solution and is covering one point: one note page per day. Still looking for the perfect solution. Xavier -- http://www.gnu.org http://www.april.org http://www.lolica.org
