From: Reuben Thomas <rrt <at> sc3d.org> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 24.1; New remember back-end for storing data in multiple files Date: Sun, 27 Jan 2013 18:09:57 +0000
I prefer to store my ideas in individual files rather than one big file;
a simplified version of remember-store-in-mailbox achieves this:
;; Remember support for storing remember data in individual files.
(defcustom remember-directory "~/remember"
"The directory in which to store remember data as files."
:type 'file
:group 'remember)
(defcustom remember-directory-file-name-format "%Y-%m-%d_%T-%z"
"The file in which to store unprocessed data."
:type 'file
:group 'remember)
(defcustom remember-handler-functions '(remember-append-to-file)
"Functions run to process remember data.
Each function is called with the current buffer narrowed to what the
user wants remembered.
If any function returns non-nil, the data is assumed to have been
recorded somewhere by that function. "
:type 'hook
:options '(remember-store-in-mailbox
remember-append-to-file
remember-store-in-files
remember-diary-extract-entries
org-remember-handler)
:group 'remember)
(defun remember-store-in-files ()
"Store remember data in a file in the directory `remember-directory',
in a file named by `remember-directory-file-name-format' fed through
`format-time-string'."
(let ((moment (format-time-string remember-directory-file-name-format (current-time)))
(text (buffer-string)))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert text)
(write-file (convert-standard-filename
(format "%s/%s" remember-directory moment))))))
If you can use this code, I've already signed an Emacs copyright waiver.
