#+STARTUP: showall

After reading [[https://ericjmritz.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/emacs-desktops/][this post]] I started using =desktop.el= as a simple project
file-like system. The only problem was that remembering which desktops
were where and switching between them is bothersome. This module tries
to fix that.

* Installation

  If you have [[http://marmalade-repo.org/][Marmalade]] set up you can just use:

  : M-x package-install <RET> desktop-registry

* Usage

  To switch between desktops you can use
  =desktop-registry-change-desktop=, this will prompt (with completion)
  for the directory you would like to load.

  When you're done with a desktop or want to get rid of a desktop for
  another reason you can use =desktop-registry-remove-desktop=.

  If you've registered a desktop and you don't like what it made of
  the name you can use =desktop-registry-rename-desktop= to give it a
  new name.

** Adding new desktops

   You can use =desktop-registry-add-directory= to add a new directory
   to the registry, or =desktop-registry-add-current-desktop= to add the
   currently loaded desktop to the registry. With either of these
   function you can use the universal argument (=C-u=) to specify a
   name for the desktop as well.

   If you enable =desktop-registry-auto-register= it will automatically
   add new desktop files to the registry when you use =desktop-save=.

** With org-capture-templates

   The =desktop-registry-current-desktop= can be used to insert the
   currently loaded desktop into an org capture template.

   #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
     (add-to-list 'org-capture-templates
                  '("t" "Task" entry nil
                    "* TODO %?  :%(desktop-registry-current-desktop \"\"):"))
   #+END_SRC
