* org-mode
** major mode
*** general config
Enable some straightforward options:
- visual-line-mode: wrap text since I like to treat long lines as paragraphs
- org-indent-mode: indent each level for better visualization
- enable special behavior for header navigation, killing, and yanking (see these docs for details)
- logs should go in their own drawer called "LOGBOOK"
- DONE state should log the time
*** package
Enable =visual-line-mode= and =org-indent-mode= by default and delight them. Also load =org-protocol= after org is loaded and set default org directory to something obvious.

*** todo states
**** list
These keywords are used universally for all org files (see below on quick explanation for each, they are all quite straightforward). Note that projects have a more specific meaning for these keywords in defining project status (see the library of agenda function). Also, it looks way better in the agenda buffer when they are all the same number of chars.
In terms of logging, I like to record the time of each change upon leaving any state, and I like recording information in notes when waiting, holding, or canceling (as these usually have some external trigger or barrier that should be specified).
