[[!template text="with handwritten notes. When you're handwriting," start="00:00:08.280" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="you don't focus as much on taking those notes." start="00:00:11.960" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Well, you don't focus as much on *how* you take the notes," start="00:00:16.160" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="you more so focus on what you're taking." start="00:00:19.560" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="You don't get that same experience" start="00:00:24.120" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="if you're writing your notes on a computer." start="00:00:27.720" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="When writing notes on a computer," start="00:00:30.520" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="you mostly focus on typing or alignment." start="00:00:32.120" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Those are things that are kind of solved already" start="00:00:38.440" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="by certain software such as Org Mode," start="00:00:42.160" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="which is fantastic when it comes to note-taking," start="00:00:45.360" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="but I still believe it could be much better." start="00:00:48.600" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template new="1" text="That's why I've developed the package called Lectorg." start="00:00:51.920" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="It's a collection of scripts and snippets which allow you" start="00:00:56.640" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="to improve your note-taking experience on the computer," start="00:01:01.800" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="of course, making you more focused on the subject" start="00:01:04.960" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="rather than the process of taking notes." start="00:01:09.920" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So why use Emacs? Well, again," start="00:01:14.440" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="if compared with other software," start="00:01:16.560" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="it has a lot more customizability" start="00:01:18.720" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="and it can also unify pretty much anything you need" start="00:01:21.800" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="in student life or work life into one place." start="00:01:24.680" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="The problems that Lectorg solves are kind of," start="00:01:31.080" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="as I mentioned, already solved partially" start="00:01:35.640" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="by Org Mode itself." start="00:01:37.880" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="What I've done is simply make a bunch of additions" start="00:01:40.480" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="to Org Mode through an external package," start="00:01:44.600" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="but I've also developed other sub-modules," start="00:01:47.360" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="one of them being HBH, which allows me" start="00:01:51.280" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="to easily plan out my days HBH, hour by hour," start="00:01:54.440" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="therefore I can plan out my days on an hourly basis" start="00:02:01.400" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="practically. But I've also built something called Reorg" start="00:02:04.680" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="which, for those of you that are familiar" start="00:02:09.440" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="with the Remarkable tablet, allows you" start="00:02:12.000" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="to integrate notes from your Remarkable into Emacs--" start="00:02:14.600" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="into your Org Mode notes basically." start="00:02:20.000" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Now I believe there's already another talk on integrating" start="00:02:22.440" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="handwritten notes into Emacs," start="00:02:25.200" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="so I won't get too much into that." start="00:02:26.920" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template new="1" text="So again, at the heart of Lectorg is Org Mode," start="00:02:30.680" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="which for those of you that might not be familiar," start="00:02:36.080" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Org Mode is one of the best pieces of software" start="00:02:38.480" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="when it comes to basically capturing any sort of text," start="00:02:43.760" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="managing that text, exporting it" start="00:02:49.040" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="into various different formats," start="00:02:51.560" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="which is perfect for taking notes" start="00:02:53.960" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="because you can either export them," start="00:02:57.280" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="take them on the go if you don't have access" start="00:02:59.400" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="to your computer all the time," start="00:03:02.120" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="or you can share them with friends, which..." start="00:03:03.880" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Well, that is somewhat self-explanatory" start="00:03:05.840" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="in how that can help you or others." start="00:03:11.360" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template new="1" text="Now the ecosystem of Lectorg," start="00:03:14.920" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="it's a bit chaotic as of right now. It's a package itself," start="00:03:16.560" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Lectorg.el, which also partially relies on" start="00:03:21.720" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="a collection of Python scripts" start="00:03:25.760" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="as I didn't have that much time" start="00:03:27.760" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="to develop the software strictly in Elisp," start="00:03:30.040" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="but it still gets the job done," start="00:03:34.120" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="and I believe that there is no speed hindrance." start="00:03:37.600" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Now to further improve Lectorg," start="00:03:43.720" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="I'd love to ask for your help" start="00:03:46.520" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="I would love to integrate your solution" start="00:03:56.840" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="(or if you don't have one, we can come up with one)" start="00:03:59.760" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="into Lectorg. Also, if anyone would be willing" start="00:04:04.400" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="to transcribe those Python scripts" start="00:04:07.520" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="into a more Lisp approach, then that'd be fabulous." start="00:04:13.440" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template new="1" text="So let's look at how Lectorg works in practice." start="00:04:18.680" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="We'll look at two examples," start="00:04:24.320" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="one of taking notes for math" start="00:04:26.040" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="and the other for business, I believe." start="00:04:28.320" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Now I have to mention that all of the things" start="00:04:33.320" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="that I do in that example" start="00:04:36.040" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="do not cover all the functions and features of Lectorg." start="00:04:38.280" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="There is decent documentation on the Lectorg GitLab page," start="00:04:43.920" video="mainVideo-school" id="subtitle"]]
