Org Mode Description
Org is implemented on top Of Outline mode. This makes it possible to keep large files well-structured. The tree can be used for structure editing and visibility cycling. A built-in table editor makes it easy to create tables. Plain text URL-like links link to websites, emails and Usenet messages. Org creates organizational tasks around notes files that contain plain text information or lists about projects. Metadata is part of an outline node and is used for task management and project planning. This data can be used to extract specific entries and create dynamic agenda views. These views also include the Emacs diary and calendar. Org can be used for many different project planning schemes such as David Allen's GTD. Org files can be used as a single source authoring tool with export to many formats, such as HTML, LaTeX and Open Document.
