I hear the "torn-ness." I looked at todo.txt[1] and TaskWarrior and
TaskPaper[2] prior to finding org-mode. I actually found org-mode but didn't
know emacs and ran away for a few months while trying to stick with my
hybridized TiddlyWiki + TeamTasks[3] system. Org-mode is fantastic, but I
know the appeal of those command line tools. The simple commands, lightness,
and dead simplicity are hard to beat.
Perhaps a nice tradeoff would be to get something from the command line that
could work with one's remember template via the command line. This is where
I see the advantage of a command line interface. I, too, have a terminal
open and/or can open one faster than emacs for a quick command. With some
terminals like tilda[4] just a keystroke away, one could be really fast with
these kinds of notes... faster than (for me) Ctrl+Alt+E (emacs), C-x C-f
file.org, M-S-> (eof), type "* whatever", C-c C-t, C-x C-s, C-c C-x.
Imagine being able to pop open a terminal and type '$ org-todo "call so and
so on friday" ~/org/task.org' and be done :)
I don't really care that much about the graphs, but the quick filing would
be nice. I'd also like access via a script to todos, perhaps for conky
integration. Even 'cat file.org |grep -A 2 TODO' isn't half bad, though.
Something like a cli agenda access would be pretty cool.
