Subject: Best practices?  Multiple .org files?
Date: Thu, 01 Sep 2011 10:35:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E5FC269.3000700@berkeley.edu> (raw)

I've been using orgmode for 6 months and really like it. I started with 
on monolithic work.org file.  I'm worried that at some point this file 
will get too big and bog down emacs.  I'm not sure how big it would have 
to be...?  To avoid that I'm thinking that I should break up this file 
into multiple .org files in a directory.  If I do that:

1. I would like to still see the same top-level tree that I see now when 
I shift-Tab e.g:

* Admin
* Drupal
* MacOS
* Linux
* Time Reports

So if I create drupal.org that contains the contents of "* Drupal", and 
I remove "* Drupal" from work.org, is there a way to still see my top 
level tree including "Drupal"?

2. Is there a way I can search for a string across all of my .org files 
from within orgmode?
