Well then, I tried to offer some advice. Good luck with MacOS. Well, thanks - it was actually valuable. Also - out of curiosity - what gave you the impression I'm using MacOS??? Fun fact: I did once use an iPad (a borrowed one) for half a day, and I found the experience terrible enough to not come near anything Apple-related;-).

This might be preposterous to those on the list that might want to use Elisp for everything, but maybe its on a device where a Linux Bash terminal just is present by default. >> >> That /could/ be a solution. >> >> > *"Just Log The Time Later" Approach:* >> > You could always even just make org capture templates to estimate time later too. >> >> And I think this is the way to go.

Its nice for what it is, but yeah, I think Emacs overall is just better suited for a laptop or desktop computer since you really need to just use a keyboard to pull off most of the magic. >> >> Of course.
