org-mode works as follows: one enters different notes in several *.org
files. If one wants to plan an appointment, then one enters 'timestamp'
on the outline (see
http://orgmode.org/manual/Timestamps.html#Timestamps). 

org-mode's agenda feature then collects all those entries (which may
come from different *.org files) and display them in 'Agenda' view (see
http://orgmode.org/manual/Agenda-Views.html#Agenda-Views)

So, I envision the following workflow: 

1) shcheduling appointment - when working with the patient record in
GNUmed and when I want to schedule an appointment, then GNUmed should be
able to call emacs (probably using emacsclient) with specified *.org
file to 'schedule' an appointment and

2) looking for appointments

Another feature would be to look at appointments and it can happen as
follows: GNUmed shall call emacsclient with specified *.org file and
then launch Agenda-view command to display all the appointments in the
current week.

What do you think?

It would be nice if some other GNUmed/org-mode user chime in...


Sincerely,
Gour
