Deft is an Emacs mode for quickly browsing, filtering, and editing directories of plain text notes, inspired by Notational Velocity. It was designed for increased productivity when writing and taking notes by making it fast and simple to find the right file at the right time and by automating many of the usual tasks such as creating new files and saving files.

Use Org for Deft Files
To use Org mode for you Deft files, add the following to your Emacs configuration file:
(setq deft-text-mode 'org-mode)
.
Then do one of the following:
- Configure Deft to use .org as the file extension:
(setq deft-extension "org")
- Associate Org mode with .txt files, or just with .txt files in a specific directory (e.g. notes/ as shown here})
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("notes/.*[.]txt$" . org-mode))
