The Org Mode 7 Reference Manual - Organize Your Life with GNU Emacs by Carsten Dominik
5.0
Org-mode is a document editing, formatting, and organizing mode, designed for notes, planning, and authoring within the free software text editor Emacs. The name is used to encompass plain text files ("org files") that include simple marks to indicate levels of a hierarchy (such as the outline of an essay, a topic list with subtopics, nested computer code, etc.), and an editor with functions that can read the markup and manipulate hierarchy elements (expand/hide elements, move blocks of elements, check off to-do list items, etc.).
Quick Facts:
Org-mode was created by Carsten Dominik in 2003, originally to organize his own life and work, and since the first release, numerous other users and developers have contributed to this free software package. Emacs includes Org-mode as a major mode by default. Bastien Guerry is the current maintainer, in cooperation with an active development community. Since its success in Emacs, some other systems have also begun providing functions to work with org files.
Almost orthogonally, Org-mode has functionalities aimed at executing code in various external languages; these functionalities form org-babel.
