+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; This is yet another implementation to allow the annotation of a
+;; file without modification of the file itself. The annotation is in
+;; org syntax so you can use all of the org features you are used to.
+
+;; To use you might put the following in your .emacs:
+;;
+;; (require 'org-annotate-file)
+;; (global-set-key (kbd "C-c C-l") 'org-annotate-file) ; for example
+;;
+;; To change the location of the annotation file:
+;;
+;; (setq org-annotate-file-storage-file "~/annotated.org")
+;;
+;; Then when you visit any file and hit C-c C-l you will find yourself
+;; in an org buffer on a headline which links to the file you were
+;; visiting, e.g:
+
+;; * ~/org-annotate-file.el
+
+;; Under here you can put anything you like, save the file
+;; and next time you hit C-c C-l you will hit those notes again.
+;;
+;; To put a subheading with a text search for the current line set
+;; `org-annotate-file-add-search` to non-nil value. Then when you hit
+;; C-c C-l (on the above line for example) you will get:
+
+;; * ~/org-annotate-file.el
+;; ** `org-annotate-file-add-search` to non-nil value. Then whe...
+
+;; Note that both of the above will be links.
