;;; Commentary:

;; Purpose:
;;
;;  Fast search for selected org headings and things outside of org.
;;
;;  This package creates and updates an index table of headings or
;;  keywords, references and ids, where each line points to a heading
;;  within org or references something outside.  This table is sorted by
;;  usage count, so that frequently used lines appear among the first
;;  search results.
;;
;;  References are essentially small numbers (e.g. 'R237' or '--455--'), as
;;  created by this package; they are well suited to be used outside of
;;  org, e.g. in folder names, issue trackers or on printed documents.
;;
;;  On first invocation org-index will guide you to create a dedicated node
;;  for its index table and its configuration flags.
;;
;;  For basic usage, subcommands 'add' and 'occur' are most important.
;;
;;
;; Setup:
;;
;;  - Add these lines to your .emacs:
;;
;;    (require 'org-index)
;;    (org-index-default-keybindings)   ; optional
;;
;;  - Restart your Emacs to make these lines effective.
;;
;;  - Invoke `org-index', which will assist in creating your index
;;    table.  The variable org-index-id will be persisted within your
;;    customization file (typically .emacs).
;;
;;
;; Further reading:
;;
;;  See the documentation of `org-index', which can also be read
;;  by invoking `org-index' and choosing the help-command.

  "Fast search for selected org headings and things outside of org.

This package creates and updates an index table of headings or
keywords, references and ids, where each line points to a heading
within org or references something outside.  This table is sorted by
usage count, so that frequently used lines appear among the first
search results.

References are essentially small numbers (e.g. 'R237' or '--455--'), as
created by this package; they are well suited to be used outside of
org, e.g. in folder names, issue trackers or on printed documents.

On first invocation `org-index' will guide you to create a dedicated node
for its index table and its configuration flags.

For basic usage, subcommands 'add' and 'occur' are most important.

This is version 4.2.1 of org-index.el.
\\<org-mode-map>
The function `org-index' operates on a dedicated table, the index
table, which lives within its own Org-mode node.  The table and
its containing node will be created, when you first invoke
`org-index'.  The node also contains a commented list, describing
the columns of the index table and their associated flags.  The
node is found through its id, which is stored within the variable
`org-index-id'.


The function `org-index' is the only interactive function of this
package and its main entry point; it will present you with a list
of subcommands to choose from:

  occur: Incremental search, that shows matching lines from the
    index table.  It is updated after every keystroke.  You may
    enter a list of words seperated by space or comma (`,'), to
    select lines that contain all of the given words.

  add: Add the current node to your index, so that it can be
    found through the subcommand \"occur\". Update index,
    if node has already been present.

  delete: Delete the current node from your index.

  head: Ask for a reference number and search for this heading.

  enter: Enter index table and maybe go to a specific reference;
    use `org-mark-ring-goto' (\\[org-mark-ring-goto]) to go back.

  ping: Echo line from index table for current node or first of
    its ancestor from index.

  ref: Create a new reference.

  help: Show this text.

  example: Create a temporary index, that will not be saved, but
    may serve as an example.

  sort: Sort lines in index, in region or buffer by contained
    reference, or sort index by count, reference or last access.

  multi-occur: Apply Emacs standard `multi-occur' operation on all
    `org-mode' buffers to search for the given reference.

  highlight: Highlight or unhiglight references in active region or buffer.
     Call with prefix argument (`C-u') to remove highlights.

  maintain: Offers some choices to check, update or fix your index.

If you invoke `org-index' for the first time, an assistant will be
invoked, that helps you to create your own, commented index.

Use `org-index-default-keybindings' to establish convenient
keyboard shortcuts.

See the commented list of flags within your index node for ways to
modify the behaviour of org-index.

A numeric prefix argument is used as a reference number for
commands, that need one (e.g. 'head').

Optional arguments for use from elisp: COMMAND is a symbol naming
the command to execute. SEARCH-REF specifies a reference to
search for, if needed. ARG allows passing in a prefix argument
as in interactive calls."

  You may start using it by adding some lines. Just move to

  To gain further insight you may invoke the subcommand 'help', or
  read the description of `org-index'.

  Within the index table below, dhe sequence of columns does not
  matter. You may reorder them in any way you please. Columns are
  found by their heading. You may also add your own columns,
  which should start with a dot (e.g. '.custom').

  Following this explanations you will find the item-list
  `columns-and-flags', which influences the behaviour of
