It lets you treat a ; group of sibling items in org-mode as alternatives in a decision. ; There are no user commands in this file. You use it by: ; * Loading it (manually or by M-x customize-apropos org-modules) ;; * Setting up at least one set of TODO keywords with the ;; interpretation "choose" by either: ;; * Using the file directive #+CHOOSE_TODO: ;; * For instance, "#+CHOOSE_TODO: NO(,-) MAYBE(,0) YES" ;; * Or by M-x customize-apropos org-todo-keywords ;; * Operating on single items with the TODO commands. ;; * Use C-S-right to change the keyword set. Use this to change to ;; the "choose" keyword set that you just defined. ;; * Use S-right to advance the TODO mark to the next setting. ;; For "choose", that means you like this alternative more than ;; before. Other alternatives will be automatically demoted to ;; keep your settings consistent. ;; * Use S-left to demote TODO to the previous setting. ;; For "choose", that means you don't like this alternative as much ;; as before. Other alternatives will be automatically promoted, ;; if this item was all that was keeping them down. ;; * All the other TODO commands are available and behave essentially ;; the normal way. ;;;_ , Requires (require 'org) (eval-when-compile (require 'cl)) ;;;_.
