creating notes in tasks

creating notes in tasks

[Neil Hepburn]

Greetings

I have found the notes tool in tasks to be invaluable (in an agenda view click on/highlight a task hit z). Is there a way to do this from a task in my todo.org file? Often when I am sorting through my todo file I want to make little notes attached to a task. Of course I can manually edit them but the notes tool in an agenda view is much more convenient.

Cheers,
Neil

Yes: Hitting C-c C-z.

Press C-c C-z to add a note to an entry.

Hi Neil,

Emacs is great at self documenting. When your cursor is in your org
buffer, press "C-h m" , change to the new buffer and search for
"note". If you want to know more about a command sequence then press
"C-h k" and then the sequence you are interested in.

e.g "C-h k C-c C-z"  in an org buffer:-

,----
| C-c C-z runs the command org-add-note, which is an interactive Lisp
| function in `org.el'.
| 
| It is bound to C-c C-z.
| 
| (org-add-note)
| 
| Add a note to the current entry.
| This is done in the same way as adding a state change note.
