   in case anybody has not used it wdired combined with emacs macros will revolutionize your filename / linking workflow (similar to vidir with vim ;-)
 
 
From my personal notes on buffer management: (in case you're looking for eyebrowse alternatives and similar)

      - persist eyebrowse with =windows-mode=
    - use frames instead of windows which are then managed by the window manager

Notes for demo by Michael Albinus: Emacs testing
 
Labeling some tests with "expensive" and "stable" to only run them on demand, not as part of the default suite.
 
Using ansible to control test runs, defining a matrix of Emacs versions.

Side-discussion in Jitsi-messages: org-roam (and Zettelkasten in general)
 
 
From my personal notes: (in Org format)
- 2020-03-12 [[https://irreal.org/blog/?p=8722][Smart Notes]] → irreal-article listing various Zettelkasten implementations with Org
- 2020-03-28 [[https://dpitt.me/blog/2020/03/zettelkasten/][dpitt.me :: Using Emacs's org-mode As Your Zettelkästen]] via [[https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/fq50ks/using_emacss_orgmode_as_your_zettelk%C3%A4sten/][reddit]]
- 2020-03-30 DIY approach to Zettelkasten [[https://irreal.org/blog/?p=8763][Implementing a Zettelkasten with Org Mode]]
- 2020-04-01 video Zettelkasten [[https://irreal.org/blog/?p=8767][Using Notion as a Zettelkasten]]
  - Notion is closed source but video is supposed to show the method which can be easily translated into Org mode

  - I also recently started with org-roam, and I like it just fine so
    far. *I'm not completely sold on the value of backlinks yet*, and
    *eliminating that would simplify org-roam by eliminating the need
    for EmacSQL* (which was complicated on my locked-down work
    machine). I quite like deft, but I hear that when you have *a
    large number of notes it really starts to bog down*. I know that I
    could switch not *notdeft*, but that *requires another database*, so
    I'm curious about your recoil and zzzfoo solution -- I'm not
    familiar with either package. Do you know enough about them to
    know how they would handle a large number of notes?
  - In the process, I have learned a lot more about org and I'm still
    considering ditching org-roam to see what I can do with *vanilla
    org and deft*. We'll see, it may depend on how much longer this
    quarantine lasts -- and I also have org-ql to investigate.

  - Elias Storms built his own Zettelkasten by leveraging the [[https://github.com/jrblevin/deft][Deft]]
    package and Org-mode. He built the system, which he calls
    [[https://www.eliasstorms.net/zetteldeft/][Zetteldeft]], for his own use but is sharing the code on [[https://github.com/EFLS/zetteldeft][GitHub]].
  - Unlike org-roam, Zetteldeft *does not maintain a database* of
    backlinks. Instead, it has a function that will add a list of
    notes that contains a given search term.
