Thanks for the links. Reports would be great, aggregated grades not so
much (at least not for the moment). A couple questions: are the buffer
settings (#+ASSIGNMENT, #+POINTS, #+DUEDATE, #+RUBRIC) of your own
creation? This is just the kind of thing I'm looking for, but on a
much less ambitious scale. This student took this test and earned this
score on this day. But is this student in this subject or that
subject? Which period? I was thinking about making a file per student,
puting the particulars in a properties drawer, and linking to an
assignments file. Pretty standard stuff, I think, but I'm working out
how to make it all happen.

I'm sorry I'm not being more clear--I'm feeling like an idiot at the
moment. I think I'll start with a file for each student like Fred's
and go from there.
