| Announcing `work-log' |
[May. 2nd, 2009|11:34 pm] |
All of you played Doom. Some of you know that it was programmed by
John Carmack. Few of you might be aware of .plan files he posted even
before the term `blog' was invented. And I find the format used in
those files to be clean, minimalistic, and fitting my own
issue-tracking habbits.
The
format is simple:
* entry was completed on that day
+ entry was completed on a later day
- entry was decided against on a later day
2009-05-02
advertise work-log.el
2009-04-09
+ hack "log-mode": start with implementing `C-x 4 a' (change-log-mode)
+ fix jabber-el's "Idle" status
2008-12-24
+ kill the bad guys
- save the world
the princess?
Whichever log format is used, log file will grow with time. In
three months I had a long file with unfinished tasks being scattered
and tiresome to find. I wanted to make them visually distinguishable
from completed/rejected. ( Thus work-log.el was born. ) |
