Weekly review of completed actions

Weekly review of completed actions

[Kevin Chow]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 518 bytes --]

After long searching I've decided that org-mode will be my productivity tool
of choice. I'm actually learning emacs just so I can use org-mode and right
now I'm a bit of a newb.

My question is how do I process my todo list in a way that I can mark
something as done or archived or something and then have it not show up in
my normal view and instead go into a list of completed actions. I'm sure
there's an easy way to do this but I'm still new enough not to know what it
is. Thanks in advance for your help!

By default, completed items will not show up in your todo list. 

You can, however, see completed items at any time:

   1. By pressing "l" in the daily/weekly agenda view (and, optionally
   "v a" or "v A" to include archived items).

   2. By doing a TODO search for "DONE" items. (C-c a T DONE)

You can also create custom agenda commands for a variety of scenarios.

Using log mode to see completed todos is good, but for longer running
items I insert inactive timestamps into a todo item each time I come
back to it.

Then in log mode I can press '[' to enable the viewing of inactive
timestamps and see a detailed log.

Enjoy!
