The org-mode documentation is very thorough and describes all the
features very well. But often the power of a feauture is not evident
until I start experimenting. Such a feature is the date-tree option of
Remember mode (section 9.1.2 Remember Templates).
I have a "journal.org" file which is my general purpose diary but I
manually create new headings each month and not worry about grouping
entries by day.
So what is a date tree?
It is a structure in an org-mode file that looks like:
* 2010
** 2010-05 May
** 2010-06 June
*** 2010-06-08 Tuesday
*** 2010-06-09 Wednesday
****** This is my heading
And this it the content of each node.
I wasn't aware what headings are created but as you can see they are
parts of a date in the format YYYY-MM-DD annotated with a month or day name.
Here is my Remember template:
("Diary" ?d "\n* %^{topic} %^g\n%i%?\nAdded: %U\n"
"~/gtd/diary.org" date-tree)
I also discovered you can add a property to a heading
namely the :DATE_TREE: property, then the remember filing is done
here. The documentation didnt tell me how to set the property value
so I used t.
* Project File
** Daily work log
:PROPERTIES:
:DATE_TREE: t
:END:
*** 2010
**** 2010-06 June
***** 2010-06-09 Wednesday
****** This is my heading

Overall, this is a very useful feature of Remember mode
to make a versatile electronic diary/journal.
Well done! Maybe I will write a short tutorial.
