That's why people use it. Indeed. Pragmatic approach. It may be lacking in design, although much has been rewritten over the years, more recently by Nicolas, but it works and works very well. It may consist of a number of distinct functionalities but the reality is that actually being productive while working (writing text and code while managing projects and emails) requires using many of these distinct functionalities (export, babel, agenda, capture). For me, org provides a unifying experience that has enriched my emacs use (and I speak as an emacs user from the 80s...). -- Eric S Fraga (GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D)
