[Gnumed-devel] re: tagging by numbers

[catmat]

if text can be semi-automatically broken up into groups ( e.g. groups of 
S items, groups of O items)
then using a keyboard shortcut or a mouse gesture can be used to link 
items e.g.
- items get separated by newline or semi-colon
- ctrl-space over an item  brings up a indent structured listbox which 
can be selected using
the arrow keys,  indent items being health issues on the first level, 
and "new episode for this encounter", "last episode on dd/mm/yyyy"
on the second level under each health issue; these could be numbered, 
and pressing a number could jump
to that context menu item, hitting enter over that item, links the soap 
item to the episode ( either new or last) of that health issue.
I'm assuming you can't link any episodes before the last episode of a 
particular health issue, because
starting a new episode marks the definite end of the last episode.
maybe have a merge episode option on the tree browser , e.g. by dragging 
one episode onto another,
(the tree browser shows >1 views of the same data:
 health issue -> episode ->  encounter -> soap items relevant to episode ;
encounter->   all s o a p items as entered for encounter ;
encounter(ordered by h i)  -> (1..*) ordered episode/health issue 
labels-> s o a p items,
