Were you looking for a note-taking system in plain text (such as Markdown), or were you using it for programming? Used vim first time mainly for programming not for Markdown. - ## Q4: I tend to think that life in school-age is somehow simple to organize since categories are easy to distinguish (years/classes, hobbies, …) in contrast to business life (many projects in parallel with many touch-points in-between them).

I can write latex fragments pretty fast but I am not yet at the point that I can keep up with them. What are the tricks/snippets you use? Oh and do you have a git repo with your Emacs dots that we can see? - -Types pretty fast (~110 wpm); for math/science uses cdlatex, yasnippet expansion, and latex fragments +## Q3: Assuming you keep real time notes during your lessons how do you manage to keep up with the lecturer's speed.
