Thx Thorston this looks great

can you recommend a way to open all orgmode notes in view mode by default, i guess i would then bind a key to disable view mode to start editing right?

thanks alot again

,----[ C-h f view-mode RET ]
| view-mode is an interactive autoloaded compiled Lisp function in
| `view.el'.
|
| (view-mode &optional ARG)
|
| Toggle View mode, a minor mode for viewing text but not editing it.
| With a prefix argument ARG, enable View mode if ARG is positive,
| and disable it otherwise.  If called from Lisp, enable View mode
| if ARG is omitted or nil.
|
| When View mode is enabled, commands that do not change the buffer
| contents are available as usual.  Kill commands insert text in
| kill buffers but do not delete.  Most other commands beep and
| tell the user that the buffer is read-only.
|
|
|
| The following additional commands are provided.  Most commands
| take prefix arguments.  Page commands default to "page size"
| lines which is almost a whole window, or number of lines set by
| z or w.
| Half page commands default to and set "half page size" lines
| which initially is half a window full.  Search commands default
| to a repeat count of one.
|
| H, h, ?        This message.
| Digits        provide prefix arguments.
| -     negative prefix argument.
| <     move to the beginning of buffer.
| >     move to the end of buffer.
| o     scroll so that buffer end is at last line of window.
| SPC   scroll forward "page size" lines.
|         With prefix scroll forward prefix lines.
| DEL   scroll backward "page size" lines.
|         With prefix scroll backward prefix lines.
| z     like  SPC  but with prefix sets "page size" to prefix.
| w     like  DEL  but with prefix sets "page size" to prefix.
| d     scroll forward "half page size" lines.  With prefix, sets
|         "half page size" to prefix lines and scrolls forward that much.
| u     scroll backward "half page size" lines.  With prefix, sets
|         "half page size" to prefix lines and scrolls backward that much.
| RET, LFD  scroll forward one line.  With prefix scroll forward prefix line(s).
| y     scroll backward one line.  With prefix scroll backward prefix line(s).
| F     revert-buffer if necessary and scroll forward.
|         Use this to view a changing file.
| =     prints the current line number.
| %     goes prefix argument (default 100) percent into buffer.
| g     goes to line given by prefix argument (default first line).
| .     set the mark.
| x     exchanges point and mark.
| @     return to mark and pops mark ring.
|         Mark ring is pushed at start of every successful search and when
|         jump to line occurs.  The mark is set on jump to buffer start or end.
| m     save current position in character register.
| '     go to position saved in character register.
| s     do forward incremental search.
| r     do reverse incremental search.
| /     searches forward for regular _expression_, starting after current page.
|         ! and @ have a special meaning at the beginning of the regexp.
|         ! means search for a line with no match for regexp.  @ means start
|         search at beginning (end for backward search) of buffer.
| \     searches backward for regular _expression_, starting before current page.
| n     searches forward for last regular _expression_.
| p     searches backward for last regular _expression_.
| q     quit View mode, restoring this window and buffer to previous state.
|         q is the normal way to leave view mode.
| e     exit View mode but stay in current buffer.  Use this if you started
|         viewing a buffer (file) and find out you want to edit it.
|         This command restores the previous read-only status of the buffer.
| E     exit View mode, and make the current buffer editable
|         even if it was not editable before entry to View mode.
| Q     quit View mode, restoring all windows to previous state.
| c     quit View mode and maybe switch buffers, but don't kill this buffer.
| C     quit View mode, kill current buffer and go back to other buffer.
|
| The effect of c, q and C depends on how view-mode was entered.  If it was
| entered by view-file, view-file-other-window, view-file-other-frame, or
| M-x dired-view-file (M-x view-file, M-x view-file-other-window,
| M-x view-file-other-frame, or the Dired mode v command),
| then q will try to kill the current buffer.
| If view-mode was entered from another buffer, by C-c v,
| M-x view-buffer-other-window, M-x view-buffer-other frame, M-x view-file,
| M-x view-file-other-window, or M-x view-file-other-frame,
| then c, q and C will return to that buffer.
|
| Entry to view-mode runs the normal hook `view-mode-hook'.
