I started with Org-Mode about six months ago and I think I've noticed an increase in the complexity (that's probably also partly due to reading threads on this list which, arguably, is a portal into the most complex aspects of Org-Mode). I need to re-think/re-consider my suggestion and articulate it more clearly, I think! -- Clint On Sat, Mar 29, 2008 at 7:17 AM, Sven Bretfeld wrote: > Hi > > > "Egli Christian (KIRO 433)" writes: > > >> TaskPaper seems to be a really simple way of documenting tasks in text > >> with a GTD style.
