Interesting article. When my Emacs opens a markdown file it immediately converts it into OrgMode format. I find that more readable, more navigable and more editable. Now I'll have to go and meditate about Emacsification. | ||

I know, right? Org-mode is soooo much more practical. imenu works great, sparse-trees are awesome, you can edit pretty much any part¹ in an indirect buffer and all. These days I try to consume anything that can be fit into an outline, in org-mode - hackernews², reddit³, slack⁴, jira boards and tickets⁵, wiktionary entries⁶, etc. Fun anecdote - I once needed to sort some nested items in a big yaml file. After spending three minutes trying to understand sort-regexp-fields (or some other function), I cheated - I ran org-mode, and then org-sort and then went back to yaml-mode. So stupid, yet so brilliant. Why the heck would I ever want to use "first-class IDE" or "intuitive, plebeian editor" if Emacs has anything I could possibly imagine? Right at my fingertips. ___ ¹ https://github.com/agzam/org-edit-indirect.el ² https://github.com/thanhvg/emacs-hnreader/ ³ https://github.com/thanhvg/emacs-reddigg ⁴ https://github.com/agzam/slacko.el | ||
