Thank you, Darlan — that is more or less what I thought. But here's the thing
(which betrays by rather shallow understanding of org-mode at this point): I
know how to create such a table. But what I don't know is how to get the prompt
to enter a new row. The notes function for tasks that are marked done don't
navigate you to a previously defined block of text, if I'm not mistaken. So,
there would be a lot of hand-navigation to make each entry. Perhaps Im
misunderstanding something, but I am seeking the ease of use of the notes
prompt, but with each new entry being not a separate note, but a row in that
table. Thoughts?
