Working with a Zettelkasten system means creating links to other notes. This is a crucial activity in order to create meaning and structure within your cloud of notes.
For this purpose, it can be useful to quickly generate a list of notes with a specific search term.
That’s what zetteldeft-insert-list-links does.
It’s best used in combination with #tags.
Calling zetteldeft-insert-list-links prompts for a search term and will insert a list of links to the search results.
To customize how such a list entry is formatted, set zetteldeft-list-prefix to a string of your choice.
Sometimes, rather thang simply generating a list, I like to manually link to notes in the text, but then I wonder which notes I haven’t linked to yet.
That’s where zetteldeft-insert-list-links-missing comes in.
(Note, however, that once the missing notes have been linked to, they are now part of the current note, which means that calling the function again will not include those notes.)
The good news is that in Org-mode, all of this can be automated via dynamic blocks (§2022-09-21-2155).
