;;;_ , Commentary:

; This is code to support decision management.  It lets you treat a
; group of sibling items in org-mode as alternatives in a decision.

; There are no user commands in this file.  You use it by:
;   * Loading it (manually or by M-x customize-apropos org-modules)

;;   * Setting up at least one set of TODO keywords with the
;;     interpretation "choose" by either:

;;     * Using the file directive #+CHOOSE_TODO:

;;       * For instance, "#+CHOOSE_TODO: NO(,-) MAYBE(,0) YES"

;;     * Or by M-x customize-apropos org-todo-keywords

;;   * Operating on single items with the TODO commands.

;;     * Use C-S-right to change the keyword set.  Use this to change to
;;       the "choose" keyword set that you just defined.

;;     * Use S-right to advance the TODO mark to the next setting.  

;;       For "choose", that means you like this alternative more than
;;       before.  Other alternatives will be automatically demoted to
;;       keep your settings consistent.

;;     * Use S-left to demote TODO to the previous setting.  

;;       For "choose", that means you don't like this alternative as much
;;       as before.  Other alternatives will be automatically promoted,
;;       if this item was all that was keeping them down.

;;     * All the other TODO commands are available and behave essentially
;;       the normal way.
