Does it have to be equal to 7 words? Or just < 7?

Your life in text
Your life on text
This is your life on text
Org Mode: This is your life in text
Emacs Org Mode: your life in text

Just some brain dumping:

Organize outlines, lists and table in text.
Text outliner with tables, lists and more.
Plain text outliner: tables, lists and more.
Plain text outliner / organizer: tables, lists, more.
ASCII outliner / organizer: tables, lists and more.
Powerful ASCII outliner / organizer: tables, lists, more.

Seven words ain't enough to say it

Edd.
