Introduction to Org-Mode and Worg
Org-mode is a powerful system for organizing your complex life with
simple plain-text files. It seamlessly integrates all your notes,
mindmaps, TODO lists, calendar, day planner, and project schedules
into a single system that can be easily searched (e.g. by grep),
encrypted (e.g. by GnuPG), backed up and synced (e.g. by Dropbox),
imported/exported, and
(e.g. on an iPhone or
Android smartphone). It can even be used for authoring web pages and
documents.
