I work extensively in org for = project planning and reporting, TODO tracking, time clocking, etc. A lot o= f my work is spread across a variety of applications and data files, which = I currently link with file: links where appropriate. When I have a single d= irectory for a project it's not too bad, but for example right now I have 4= separate sub-projects that were started and merged into 1 larger project, = in multiple directories at the same level and TODOs, notes, code, etc sprea= d across 8 or 10 org files. Simply pushing it all together screws up a lot of my linking and multiple f= iles have very similar structure, making a simple merge difficult. > Kevin Buchs Research Computer Services Phone: 507-538-5459 > Mayo Clinic 200 1st.
