[[!template text="""so that's something that's more flexible,""" start="00:01:11.800" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""for each reference""" start="00:01:49.960" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""into your, or output that into your paper.""" start="00:01:55.320" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""So there are better systems,""" start="00:02:00.800" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""but this is what worked for me and what was easy.""" start="00:02:02.440" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""a few characters of some command,""" start="00:02:39.007" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""That's based on its algorithms""" start="00:02:47.640" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""of what I most likely meant""" start="00:02:51.360" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""So it usually brings up the command that I want,""" start="00:02:55.160" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""or the one that I want""" start="00:02:57.920" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""is one or two spots away in the entry.""" start="00:02:59.580" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""That just saves me a lot of time""" start="00:03:03.080" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template new="1" text="""So what is my approach?""" start="00:03:14.920" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""of Org entries in a file.""" start="00:03:27.307" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""Fundamentally, that's all it is.""" start="00:03:35.580" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""But I'll go over the parts.""" start="00:03:37.207" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""You can see there's the title for the entry,""" start="00:03:39.207" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""So fundamentally, that's all it is.""" start="00:05:29.940" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Of course, I've added in a bit of convenience code""" start="00:05:32.200" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""The first two here are ones""" start="00:05:49.480" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""Honestly, I can't remember""" start="00:05:54.560" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""exactly where that I got them from,""" start="00:05:56.160" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""Writable or not writable, I should say.""" start="00:06:04.240" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""The idea there is that""" start="00:06:09.300" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""when I'm creating a new entry,""" start="00:06:12.200" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I don't want to accidentally delete""" start="00:06:13.480" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""or write over some earlier entries that I've made.""" start="00:06:16.307" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""So I use a little bit of Emacs functionality for that.""" start="00:06:18.960" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""Really trivial, basic stuff here.""" start="00:06:32.440" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""The core of it is the `new-reference` function.""" start="00:06:35.040" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Basically, what that does is""" start="00:06:41.800" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""it opens up the references file,""" start="00:06:44.840" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""jumps to the end of the reference file,""" start="00:06:47.560" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""starts a new entry, inserts the asterisk.""" start="00:06:52.040" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""It jumps back to the previous text,""" start="00:06:57.440" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and whatever previous text there is,""" start="00:07:01.520" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""Again, so that I don't accidentally delete that,""" start="00:07:04.880" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""or cut, or type over it, or something""" start="00:07:08.120" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""when I'm making a new reference.""" start="00:07:10.800" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Then it goes back to the new reference,""" start="00:07:14.580" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""automatically adds in a unique ID for that,""" start="00:07:17.680" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""the date the entry was created — today's date.""" start="00:07:25.360" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""One is `view-references`,""" start="00:07:32.760" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""if you're not already on it.""" start="00:07:39.400" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""it also goes over all the text in the buffer""" start="00:07:50.160" video="mainVideo-ref" id="subtitle"]]
