Hi Russel,

this is also a valuable idea.  There are two avenues in this direction.

1. Make the org-mode defaults already set all this stuff up.

2. Offer a blind set of configurations and tell users,
   if you don' know nothing yet, use these.


In either case, what would the improved defaults be that
help beginners get a better start?

The idea of a tutorial is great, but has anyone considered a
pre-configured out-of-the-box Org customized Emacs distribution?

I've had to help several new users get things like basic agenda, emacs
initialization, and remember templates setup and it seemed very
repetitive.

The Emacs learning curve really holds back Org adoption in that sense,
they can't just open Emacs and use Org immediately as anything other
than an outline editor.

Perhaps just a script to enact default customizations, that the
tutorial could then build upon?

Thanks.

Hello,

lately there is some talk about a basic org-mode tutorial. Something simpler then the documentation, that will help a person new to emacs and org-mode start using org. I would like to put the following on worg, if people would think something like this would fit the bill. What do you think? If the response is positive then I would add more chapters to it.

greetings,

alex
