Imagine I have a single project or task which I know will require several sessions to complete. Before I get to the stage of analysing it closely and breaking it down into sub-tasks, it would be good to reserve some diary time in advance, so that I don't accidentally accept other commitments for that time and overstretch myself.
However, this is different from booking a normal diary appointment, in the sense that I am not making a commitment to other people to be in a particular place at a particular time: the commitment is only to myself and is directly associated with a particular project or task. Therefore it sounds like it would be useful to be able to schedule the same task for multiple slots. It turns out that the org-agenda code already handles this beautifully; if you do: * Long task/project not yet broken down into sub-tasks SCHEDULED: <2008-01-07 Mon> SCHEDULED: <2008-01-08 Tue> and it appears in both places in an agenda view, and you can jump back to the item in the normal way. The only downside is that C-c C-s doesn't currently support entering it: (org-schedule &optional REMOVE) Insert the SCHEDULED: string with a timestamp to schedule a TODO item. With argument REMOVE, remove any scheduling date from the item. How about doing the usual trick of comparing different prefix argument values (e.g. 4 vs. 16) to allow adding a new scheduled slot? _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
