HyWiki: Fast, Hyperlinked Note-taking with No Markup Required
Bob Weiner - Pronunciation: wine-er, rsw@gnu.com
Format: 20-min talk; Q&A: BigBlueButton conference room
Status: Waiting for video from speaker
Description
This talk will demonstrate HyWiki, Hyperbole's new markup-free, personal Wiki system for note-taking. HyWiki utilizes Org format and its publishing framework.
With the press of a key, HyWiki lets you:
- create a new HyWiki page when on a WikiWord
- create a highlighted hyperlink to a Wiki page
- jump to an existing page or section therein
- publish an entire HyWiki to the web with numbered sections
We'll demonstrate how you can efficiently take notes and have them automatically interlinked without having to master Org link syntax or any syntax at all.
HyWiki is quick, simple and efficient. It has been tested to perform well with 10,000 WikiWords and requires no database nor configuration. Install the Hyperbole package and you are ready to go.
About the speaker:
Bob Weiner has been molding Emacs to his will for most of his life. His mega-Hyperbole package aims to simplify all kinds of information management across Emacs modes. HyWiki is his take on fast hyperlinked note-taking. Let's see if he has something interesting to show us.
