Ask HN: What's the weirdest/best thing you've done with Emacs?
Maybe not so amazing, or even Emacs specific. But I use a text file to store my browser bookmarks. I type a brief description above each url. I can add search tags.<p><pre><code>    description blah blah blah
    tags: programming performance
    http:&#x2F;&#x2F;some_url_foobar
</code></pre>
I view the file with Emacs mode <i>goto-address-mode</i>. So all the hyperlinks are clickable with the mouse or a keybind.<p>I can run <i>M-x occur</i>. To search and get a nice list of matches by tag or description text.<p>I think it&#x27;s superior to any bookmark feature built into a browser. Simply using a text-based format, and a few built-in Emacs features.
