[emacs-wiki-discuss] RE: Planner tip #1: Overcome inbox insanity the Planner way

[Raymond Zeitler]

Why would I want to overcome insanity?  Insanity is the only constant in my
life.  :)

The tip that you posted is many tips in one.  What I left unsnipped (quoted
below) could stand on its own as a tip.  Even this is a cool tip: 

"Use planner-copy-or-move-region to schedule multiple tasks."

I hope you collect these tips and incorporate them into a
planner-tip-of-the-day function to hook into planner-mode.

Good luck!

        the     Planner way

Hello, everyone!

I've realized that I really want to get into technical writing and
speaking. =) Which means Planner is going to be my guinea pig for
writing articles and documentation (hence the Linux Journal article!).
So I'm going to see how many Planner tips I can write, and I'd love to
get feedback on both content and style.

What do you think? =) (Oh, I can just hear it now. "Sacha, don't quit
your day job just yet." Wait, I don't have a day job--I'm a
student...)

[snip]

You can specify actual dates (yyyy.mm.dd, mm.dd, or just dd), 
or you canuse Planner's relative dates features to schedule 
things for nextFriday (+fri), two days from now (+2), or even 
the 3rd Tuesday afterMarch 1 (+3tue3.1).
