Hello everyone. I'm working on a very small (but very useful to me)
piece of software called Lifesnap. It is compatible with org-mode and
potentially of interest to org-people so I am mentioning it here.
The idea is to get a single-key overview of the output of various
Emacs packages I use to keep myself organized. This way I can more
easily "get in sync" with my information.
the webpage (with screenshot) is here:
http://dto.freeshell.org/notebook/LifeSnap.html
It's currently very tiny and with some bugs, but I already find it
useful. Eventually I would like it to behave much like the Evolution
Summary page, showing RSS feeds, weather, mail messages, and so on.
But it also can support any kind of custom "emacs feed" you can think
up. So org-agenda is one of the "plugins".
Speaking of which, there is a slight problem with org-agenda.... when
I switch weeks in the agenda week view, it clobbers the nice window
configuration. Is there any way to prevent this? I'm not sure why
changing weeks should alter the windows.
Anyway, I'm interested in hearing your feedback on lifesnap and seeing
what ideas/suggestions people may have.

Hi David
That seems cool. What about adding:
- mh-e plugin to show the no of unread mails, and total no of mails in
certain named mailboxes (I use an +action mailbox where I file mails
which I need to do something with, plus a +waiting mailbox. This
enables me to get my +inbox to zero as per GTD). By all means, support
other emacs mailers :-)
However, I have installed the linkd and lifesnap files, loaded them up,
but when I run lifesnap nothing happens! (the linkd stuff works for me
though). Any ideas ?
Finally, do mind me asking how you get that colour scheme ? Nice.
Pete

Hi Pete,
Like I said, there are bugs. I just started coding yesterday morning.
I'll work on it and see if I can fix the problem. Within a few days I
should have a "real" alpha release with a bit of documentation so
maybe it would be best to wait till then. It will also support proper
window configurations then, so that you can have vertical splits etc.
My themes page is http://dto.freeshell.org/notebook/ColorThemes.html .
The right one is color-theme-cl-frame and it includes Org faces.
I will keep you posted.
