I’ve been working through the org-mode customisations here: [Org Mode Basics - System Crafters](https://systemcrafters.net/emacs-from-scratch/org-mode-basics/)

(I’ve been using org-mode for years, but seeing some of the Systemcrafters videos made me go green eyed).

The one addition I had to make was `(set-face-attribute 'org-table nil :inherit 'fixed-pitch)` as my timesheets were unreadable.

However, I hope someone is pleased. I’ve now wasted about 8 hours of my life tinkering with entirely cosmetic configuration options, and have a feeling that number is going to go up! Not only are the videos helpful, I would say they are inspiring. Now for more work on the icons.

Sounds like you got nerd sniped. 😉 Now, whatever you do, don’t look up Nicolas Rougier’s Org customizations…
