My chief concern with mapping archiving to C-c C-a is that it is too close to the conventional keybinding for org-agenda (C-c a). With the proposed keybindings, I fear it might be too easy to introduce drastic changes in a file accidentally. (E.g., I sometimes hit C-c C-a when I intend to hit C-c a and vice versa.) > > In the agenda > ------------- > a archive with org-archive-default-command > C-c C-a same as a > C-c C-x a org-toggle-archive-tag > C-c C-x A org-archive-to-archive-sibling > C-c C-x C-s org-archive-subtree ($ remains valid as well) Again, I would prefer that C-c C-a remain bound to org-attach. I currently unbind "a" (org-toggle-archive-tag) in the agenda. In the past, items often mysteriously disappeared from my agenda view. I discovered the cause: I was occasionally hitting "a" by accident. I agree with Peter that commands with relatively destructive consequences (such as archiving) should not be bound to a single key. One wouldn't want to miss an appointment because one accidentally hits "a" in the agenda. :) Thanks for giving us the chance to provide feedback on these proposed changes. - Matt > > > I am wondering how much resistance such a change would create. > > Comments? > > - Carsten _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
