;;; Commentary:
;;
;; Integration of denote with Dired. NOTE: does not work if
;; diredfl-mode is enabled.
;; One of the upsides of Denote's file-naming scheme is the predictable
;; pattern it establishes, which appears as a near-tabular presentation in
;; a listing of notes (i.e. in Dired). The `denote-dired-mode' can help
;; enhance this impression, by fontifying the components of the file name
;; to make the date (identifier) and keywords stand out.
;;
;; Setup (only affects `denote-directory'):
;; There are two ways to set the mode. Either use it for all directories,
;; which probably is not needed:
;;
;; (require 'denote-dired)
;; (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook #'denote-dired-mode)
;;
;; Or configure the user option `denote-dired-directories' and then set up
;; the function `denote-dired-mode-in-directories':
;;
;; (require 'denote-dired)
;;
;; ;; We use different ways to specify a path for demo purposes.
;; (setq denote-dired-directories
;; (list denote-directory
;; (thread-last denote-directory (expand-file-name "attachments"))
;; (expand-file-name "~/Documents/vlog")))
;;
;; (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook #'denote-dired-mode-in-directories)
;;
;; The `denote-dired-mode' does not only fontify note files that were
;; created by Denote: it covers every file name that follows our naming
;; conventions (read about "The file-naming scheme" in the manual).
;; This is particularly useful for scenaria where, say, one wants to
;; organise their collection of PDFs and multimedia in a systematic way
;; (and, perhaps, use them as attachments for the notes Denote
;; produces).
;;
;; For the time being, the `diredfl' package is not compatible with this
;; facility.
