Emacs org mode notes(1)

I am a newbie to Emacs org mode.I think David O'Toole Org tutorial is a nice material to give you a feel for org mode.


I followed the instructions of this tutorial step by step ,everything went well. You can download OrgTutorial.org .This file is my result after learning this tutorial.


The following is a summary of this tutorial to remind myself things easy to forgotten.


1.How to mark a TO DO item as Done: move your cursor onto that line and hitting C-c C-t.


2.How to add more TO DO items:Position the cursor on the next line and hit M-Shift-enter.(In fact you don't have to position your cursor on the next line.Position the cursor at the end of the previous line is also OK).


3.Insertion of a link is easy.If you want to open a link,position your cursor over the link and hit C-c C-o.

4.How to link to local files:open that local file in Emacs and hit C-c l.Then back to org mode buffer  and hit C-c C-l.

5.How to get an overview of the document:Shift-Tab. If Shift-Tab again and again ,you will expand the  document gradually.
