I find org-mode very useful, and I'd like start org-mode as default mode when I run emacs. How can I do that?

Does Emacs come with Org mode?

Emacs has included Org Mode as a major mode by default since 2006. Bastien Guerry is the current maintainer, in cooperation with an active development community. Since its success in Emacs, some other systems now provide functions to work with org files.

How do you mark a todo as done in Org mode?

Org mode does not maintain TODO lists as separate documents35. Instead, TODO items are an integral part of the notes file, because TODO items usually come up while taking notes! With Org mode, simply mark any entry in a tree as being a TODO item.

What can Org mode do?

Description. Org mode is routinely used to build and manage complex workflows. It does this using an elegantly simple syntax that scales from basic markup to full LaTeX typesetting and from plain text notes to literate programs. Everything you need to get started is demonstrated in the example.

I assume you want to keep the default *scratch* buffer open. Add the following to your .emacs:

(pop-to-buffer (get-buffer-create (generate-new-buffer-name "*scratch-org*")))
(insert "Scratch buffer with org-mode.\n\n")
(org-mode)
