Getting Started With Org Mode
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июл 2024
- Harry Schwartz demonstrates some of the nifty features of Org mode:
"Org mode is an outliner, markup language, task manager, calendar, contact manager, and who-knows-what-else. I use it to write documents and presentations, manage my todo list, and I even write my Emacs configuration in it.
In other words, Org is taking over my life.
I’ll be introducing some of the functionality of Org, demonstrating what it can do, and showing how you, too, can become pleasantly obsessed with a wacky, overgrown outlining tool."

org-mode is very good for writing tutorials about org-mode
Lol wtf is this comment chain
That's a fact
one of the most comfortable speakers, he could continue for hours, I would still be here :)
He should work as a conference speaker and video tutorial maker.
I just love the geeky amazement of the crowd '' OOOH WOOW'' XD
amazing video, thank you so much for making this. I'll share some notes if anyoneebenefits from them!

Love your enthusiasm Mr. Schwartz ! Good presentation !
That was a groundbreaking, mind-blowing, life-changing talk for me.
After a year, how life changing was org-mode to you? I'm switching from Vim to Emacs, mostly for other reasons, but Org-mode being a thing, I want to start using it!
@@Ybalrid How was *your* experience?
@@BerkaySoyluoglu I mostly use for todolisting and tastk tracking (scheduled date and deadlines). I haven't delved into the agenda features. I like the fact that these are plaintext files that I can easily sync anywhere via nextcloud/dropbox/whatever. There are Smartphones apps that can uses them to (beorg on iPhone for example). It's great, but I am not using the full potential of the thing (yet!)
@@Ybalrid Thanks for the reply! I think I'll be using this for sync: github.com/ryuslash/git-auto-commit-mode. For mobile, I might give Termux + Emacs a chance. As an alternative this exists too: github.com/aaronbieber/periodic-commit-minor-mode/blob/master/periodic-commit-minor-mode.el
@@Ybalrid is it a replica of Roam Research??
I love the way this guy says "very fancy". Also, great talk!
Didn't know Gilfoyle was an emacs user :-)
y0cables Silicon Vally？
seems Richard ganna start a holy war
Came here to write the same. Found it as the top comment ! :)
Pfft. That's Gilfoyle's cucked Evangelical cousin, if anything.
Gilfoyle has never ever non-ironically said " _This is gonna be fun_ ". And he wouldn't use an iThing if you had his balls in a vice, because he's backend (therefore talented, and heterosexual).
If you didn't build your own machine, you have no part in any conversation that refers to Gilfoyle. That would be the opposite of taking his name in vain.
@@thestopper5165 you know... he is a fictional character right? And he uses a Mac in the first season anyways. Dunno about the rest
I love this guy's use of the word "bonkers"!
Great demo.
Thank you for a exceptional presentation! It is so nice to always find new things to do in org-mode, I had not used the links so thank you for that.
I have been using org-mode for a journal at work for over a year. It is crazy good. In the end of every month I export my notes and mail them to my boss. It is perfect for this and I don't know how many times I have gone back in my notes for an explanation to why I did something.
At meetings I can jot down todos, notes and show what I have been up to, which is perfect.
Next goal is to set up a calendar/agenda/org-file sync so I could use it with my phone. I have not gotten that to work just yet and any recommendations are welcome.
Thanks for the amazing talk Mr Harry Schwartz. Extremely engaging and resourceful. I'm a Vim expat to Emacs and this is one of the reasons why.
Alright, I'm sold. I never saw any advantage of emacs compared to vim, but it does so many of the things I've been searching for. Installing it now.
Great presentation. I learned more about Org-mode in 1 hour than I had since I started using it a few months ago!
My new favorite video and speaker on emacs. Very fancy!!
Finally a video on this. I've been wanting to start for a while now, this is good as a kickstart!
I love how you blew the minds of multiple people multiple times during the talk. Sure enough blew mine as well!
Watched so many vim related videos online can confirm I've never been this exited. Great stuff.
Wow, I was blown away by all the features. Great presentation, what a cool guy!
This is a great talk. I appreciate a speaker who is comfortable with what they're demonstrating.
Great information!
Man, his voice is so clear and crisp
This is such a great talk. The speaker is just phenomenal. :)
Thank you for changing my life.
org-mode ; #motherofall outliner, markup langs, task manger, cals, ya who-knows-what-else...
thanks for featuring this, everybody better learn to use org stuffs for their own productive life.
So many great things! Org-mode fanciness was very interesting but I also liked the general trend toward owning/reclaiming your own data, preferably in plain, open formats (can't really beat plain text files). Owncloud, duckduckgo, etc, all good stuff :)
This is truly fantastic! Great stuff! Ten points. Eleven if you could find the time to make part two and maybe three!! It might also be helpful to everybody if you edit this video a little or have a video guy do it so that unhelpful comments by unappreciative members of the audience wouldn't distract from the message and waste anybodys' time any more. Nobody deserves a torture like that! Everybody deserves to get this great knowledge - right?
What is the font in the video called? I love the rounded parenthesys
Interesting with table completion.
How does it interact with default emacs's table-insert (existed since the 90's)?
M-x table-insert enter enter enter (default values)
I love this guy's voice, his calm explanations remind me of Bob Ross!
He sold me with the enthusiasm.
as far as contact-lists in org, you can simply create a contact-list org file with custom properties for the different metadata for the contacts and place it in your agenda files, then you can build a custom agenda view for the contact list and use the agenda's powerful filtering system to filter by property
Thanks a lot...I'm also a big fan of emacs and org, but my English is really...em....really OK. There are a lot I can't understand in the video. I wonder how can I find the configuration of emacs in the video, github or somewhere else? Thanks again...
Amazing talk, amazing speaker. Thanks a lot.
When he talks about literate programming, how would one deal with auto generated code?
Is it possible to move SRC blocks with meta key? When I do that, I get an error saying "This block is not using a session!"
Links you mentioned in the artticle, like you github repo?
Thanks a lot. Very useful, and very convincing.
Thanks for the talk, this blew my mind! However when you fold/collapse a section an arrow appears instead of the three dots (...), I thought that was provided by org-bullets also, but it's not, how did you customize that?
Great! It worked like a charm thanks, hoping to see more of your talks you're really good at this.
but can you do real time compiling of latex while while you type ?
Great Video - thanks a lot! I learned a lot with all thoughtbot emacs Videos! Amazing!
Does anyone know what color theme he uses? I really like it!
solarized dark
i wish there was to include grouped headers for tables in org-mode, anyone know how to do t hat?
I normally just remember important things.
But I write project specific TODO-lists, which is useful to work more structured on something, at least, when you already know pretty well, what you want to do and how it should be done.
How is the file exported to pdf via Latex that fast? Doesn't it need to run pandoc first?
What does Vunckers mean?
Great introduction. Being an Org Mode addict, I watched it wondering if I could pick up a few tricks, and sure enough, I did.
Can you please elaborate on how you installed/configured 'minted' to achieve the syntax-highlighted exports? Thanks.
+Harry Schwartz It certainly is.. Thank you!
Anyone find Markdown is sufficient for them?
BTW, you can connect Org mode with Trello or Basecamp tickets.
38:32 I use that same strategy with my alarm clock in the mornings. If I don't have to be somewhere by a certain time before noon, I won't set my alarm to wake up because I know I'll just snooze and sleep through it, which in the past had formed a habit of that to the point where I would set my alarm for important appointment, and I would snooze out of habit or maybe even sleep so hard all the way through the alarm that I never even heard it.
Org mode is pure genius
An org config file is pretty cool
I like his theme. Any ideas what it is or how to get it? Thanks!
Looks like "solarized dark" to me
why am only seeing this video now. I need this
Fantastic!
What is the name of the color theme he is using for the bullet points and what not? It looks really nice!
Solarized I guess
I'm trying out github.com/sabof/org-bullets. The colors don't exactly match, but it's still better than the regular '*' etc.
Really great video . I learned a ton about org mode and the potential of literate configuration files. Harry's config files are at github.com/hrs/dotfiles where you can find the configuration.org and his init.el that loads the file
This presentation would have been infinitely better if there was some kind of way to show what keypresses he was making.
yeah it would have been better. but its nothing you can lookup by yourself if you're convinced by the talk. Personally I never used org-mode (didnt even know what it was) so it was useful to see the options and decide whether I want to learn it. Then I just get a book or a longer tutorial.
"Is there a certain hotkey to do that in emacs?" A typical question of someone who does not really understand the true power of emacs, yet. If there is no hotkey yet, you simply learn lisp and than you can create one yourself! ;-)
Thanks for the nice tutorial!
16:40 how did he edit that second (align*) to {align*} as if using vim dot/period?? edit: eww ok, he is using evil mode 😄
This guy would be perfect for audio books.
how to change the parentheses like Mr.Schwartz in @16:42 ???
If you ever figured this out, I'd love to know. I'm about to write some elisp for it, I want it so bad. ;-)
Paredit?
You can do that with smpartparens mode by Fuco1. The action in the time stamp can be achieved by doing `M-x sp-rewrap-sexp`. He probably has that mapped to a key stroke. See `M-x sp-cheat-sheet` or go to the home page of the package for more info.
@@EthanBlanton evil mode surround package
What is the theme he's using in this?
It looks like one of the 3 or 4 "Solarized" dark themes. I've heard that the Solarized theme (light or dark) is more likely to be the easiest on the eyes for the most people.
My opinion is that because it is mostly green, it avoids both blue and red light (RGB). Blue light is straining on the eye, and red light puts you to sleep. And this particular green leans only slightly into the blue light spectrum, which my theory is that it helps you focus.
How did you change the outliner from * to circle? (1:58)
Use org-bullets mode
github.com/sabof/org-bullets
If you watched the video you wouldnt need to ask
very fancy
amazing
There were few places in your presentation where you wished you were able to resize the fonts. The inbuilt text-scale-adjust adjusts ONLY the current buffer text size. I had dealt with that limitation many times and eventually came up with this global font scaling solution: github.com/kaushalmodi/.emacs.d/blob/efea6785da61297f9af1a53e71c281dc3de9e3e5/setup-files/setup-visual.el#L253-L319
+Harry Schwartz Cool! Interesting to see that we came up with almost similar solutions to solve the exact pain point i.e. resize EVERYTHING including the mode line :)
Nice
So sorry I missed this.
This video is kind of interesting and I watched it to the end but you really should title this "Showcase" or something like that and not "Getting Started". I just got emacs today and learned some basic stuff and I want to try this mode. Took me awhile to found org-show-subtree command (not even binded to anything) to expand those "outliners" so I decided to whatch your video hoping to see some tips and after this hour and minutes of searching help for "hide/fold/collapse" I still have no idea how to display it back. It's cool how you can export this in may formats and organize your tasks but practically I have no knowlage on how to "get started" with this. Usually I autodislike videos with misleading titles but forgetting that it is good so I won't, just saying...
ok, I fount it is tab to "org-cycle" (very informative name) :P
Thanks for your comment, I was wondering about the same issue.
Emacs seems cool, but I need something thats standardized and can be run over ssh cmd
How to do the same in VIM?
There's a Neovim plugin called nvim-orgmode that you can use. The Vim version I recall has been abandoned for years now, so you'll want to use Neovim if you aren't already. The plugin only has a small subset of the features of Emacs Org mode, but even a tiny fraction of that is still massively useful.
Alternatively, if it's just the Vim motions that appeal to you, you can use Evil mode on Emacs to switch all the keybindings to Vim style.
Oh, and if you happen to see a plugin called Neorg for Neovim, it's merely inspired by Org-mode, but they way your files are structured are not compatible with any other Org mode extension in any other editor. So you'd be forfeiting almost all the advantages of Org-mode with Neorg by not having a rock solit consistent compatibility everywhere you go and you isolate yourself from a dedicated developer community that has been going strong for over 20 years. Who knows if Neorg will be updated in a few years anyway.
Anyway, that's just my opinion.
Didn't know Gilfoyle gave good talks.
Awesome talk! That guy in the audience needs to shut the hell up
I agree
I'm lost right at the start, how did he convert the star to the nice bullet point? Mine just stays as a star
Edit: oh someone asked the same question 9mins in ☺️
I don't think he ever explained it!
he uses a package called org-modern
What is this meta thing you are talking about?
Meta = Alt key on a PC
I have a mac and I don't see any key marked meta.
I also have a number of Linux boxes and even though I have been working in computers since 1973 I have never heard of a key called meta apart from the key marked meta on a Sun keyboard?
The Meta (M) key on Sun and other mainframe keyboards became the Alt key on the PC keyboard. Thus on your Linux machines, the command Meta-c (M-c) becomes Alt-c.
On Mac I *believe* that M-c becomes "option-c", though some Apple users map the Meta key to the Mac's "command" key . (not an Apple user so you might want to Google this to verify) Hope that helps.
Bruce Fielding Thanks, I bet I am not the only one who didn't know that. I was used to vt100 terminals and I don't recall using that key.
I want the address of his github,who knows?
Here you go! github.com/hrs
this makes me want to switch from vim to emacs, its so hard though ;-;
Look into "evil-mode", it lets you use emacs as if it were vim as far as key bindings go so you can use your him knowledge to be productive while having the environment to experience and learn new capabilities that emacs allows
Luke Smith should watch this.
Getting started. More like a ~~complete~~ tour.
He kinda reminds me of Jonathan Coulton
I love the way this guy says "verr pretty" and "verr nice"
There use to be a detergent called Vim.... Emacs wipes the floor with it :-)
real life Gilfoyle
Eric Wareheim lost a lot of weight.
Well there is the strange notion to evaluate any code block automatically isn't a good idea 😃

shit's dope yo
code interpretation; html AND Latex exportation. Only 16 min in and I'm way past sold! stop it or you'll force me to uninstall vi from all my machines
Private simmons uses emacs. Not suprising.
ayyy big head
It is said that the gods use emacs and the devil uses Vi
56 minutes
There should be a religion for this
The questions are very distracting.
Microsoft fanboys gonna hate
Emacs is under the GNU GPLv3 and has ports to windows. So Microsoft Fanboys do have org-mode.
@@lorenzoiannuzzi3937 but afair emacs in windows is horrible. And no decent emacs in a shell.
Go straight to 2 minutes. He actually types something then.
LIterally 53% of the screen real estate was wasted on the dude and some fuzzy logos. Why do nerds, in the year 2018 still think we want to see their mugs or their terrible logos when we click on a hands-on tutorial? Please don't do this .
Emacs has got THE ugliest logo I've ever seen. Vim's is really fucking nice.
