Yeah, good question. Generally I think I lean towards split files for notes but single file for tracking todos. I do have one huge file for personal notes but that's mainly because I generate a website from it and it was easiest to set up from one file.

Thanks for the reply, also how do you get that little icon to show that the text can expand? At the end of the line​@@JakeBox0

@@JakeBox0 It was exactly this, thank you so much

Luckily you can mute the video faster than it took you to write this comment

​@@JakeBox0My bad 😅

You're welcome, thanks for the comment. Unfortunately I don't know anything about those plugins. I imagine they would work.

Thank you! Did you mean C-c C-t? In that case perhaps it is because you don't have any alternative keywords set. You can either set the `org-todo-keywords` variable or, at the top of your org file, see this: orgmode.org/manual/Per_002dfile-keywords.html Now about init.el that sounds right, I have never used a .emacs file because I tend to have more files and whatnot. Re breaking up org content, it's really a personal choice. You're right I definitely should do a video on this topic. There are many tools out there to help, perhaps 'denote' might be up your alley. Must avoid same todos in multiple places though!!

Oh, great! Glad you like it! The Dropbox is pretty simple. I just keep all of my Emacs related stuff in Dropbox. I then make a symlink from an Emacs configuration folder to my home directory. There are apps that help you do this, I use one called Mackup but I believe there are others. It has worked well for me, you just need to symlink once and then any change you make on one device will propagate to the other thanks to Dropbox. Let me know if you have any more questions.

@@JakeBox0 Thanks for the reply. I've never heard of symlink, but it sounds like that could be my ticket. I'll look for a Linux app that can do that. Would it also work with GDrive? And would that also make the folder accessible on multiple devices, which is what I really want?

@@BobIrving2 Symlinks can be created with the `ln` command. Google Drive I imagine would work the same, unsure how it looks locally but for my drive I can just cd in to the directory.

I decided to revisit and just give YASnippet a try. I have to admit it when it's true, I was wrong. Thanks for the intro to the tool.

I wanted to comment the exact same thing but you said it all!

There are websites that let you enter equations using calculator-like buttons and will give you the corresponding latex code to copy and paste into your editor. Just Google something like "latex equation editor"

Nice! Thanks for commenting. Agreed re the manual.

¡Me alegro, amigo!

Yo aprendo las dos cosas: Emacs e inglés. En verdad que los vídeos de Jake son bastante claros y van directo al punto, es muy bueno transmitiendo información

Thank you so much for the kind words, it means a lot and I really appreciate it. All the best to you as well. Let me know if you have any video requests.

Thank you for the nice comment, I'm glad to hear it.

Thanks for the nice comment, I'm very pleased to hear it. Let me know if you have any video requests.

Hi, do you mean right when the file is saved? If so, there isn't a way that I'm familiar with but it shouldn't be too hard to work out if you're interested. You'd want to automatically generate LaTeX on save (easy with a hook or something), and then use something like latexmk to automatically compile and preview the changed LaTeX file. Good luck, report back if you come up with something. I could also attempt a little guide/package if there is interest.

@@JakeBox0 Thank you so much! I will report back findings if/when I get to it

Hi, I'm not entirely sure but I think it generally has something to do with the order in which things are loaded. Try doing that before and after loading a theme and see if it helps.

Thanks so much for your comment! I really appreciate it, I've seen your video on exporting HTML and like it a lot!

¿Haces algo más tuneado? ¿Como lo haces?

@@JakeBox0 realmente no es nada especial como usar lisp. Ademas de alguna clase, uso plantillas que incluyo como tu con setup muy "cargadas" ademas de que he encontrado una forma sencilla de tener los encabezados y las notas al pie en sffamily y el cuerpo del texto en rmfamily usando inputenc que como sabras es muy limitado en este aspecto, de esta forma obtengo una apariencia mas moderna

Base functionality yes, but Emacs' featureset and customizability is unmatched.

Sorry I don't have keybindings. I often prefer to leave them out because keybindings vary on preference, distro, etc.

I have my own keybindings, I use ,ci for clock-in and ,co for clock-out. Adjusting timestamp is indeed shift up and down.

Thanks for the nice comment, I'm pleased you thought so.

Pleased you enjoyed it! Good luck on your Emacs journey.

You are welcome, glad to hear it was helpful.

That's the org-ellipsis variable.
