Hi -
org-mode is fantastic. Part of what makes it so awesome is that one can keep
tweaking the software and the process. In looking at my own usage, I
noticed that
I really wanted to simplify my org-todo-keywords. I had a separate
list of TODOs
for projects (PROJ->PRST->DONE) and was wondering why I had to have that.
Why couldn't I just get by with TODO->STARTED->DONE for everything, tasks
and projects, and mark up projects with a tag.
You can see what I'm aiming for with this example.
(setq org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance '("project"))
(setq org-todo-keywords '(
(sequence "TODO" "STARTED" "WAITING" "|" "DONE" "CNCL"))
(setq org-stuck-projects '("project/STARTED" ("TODO" "WAITING"
"STARTED") nil ""))
* STARTED Stuck project :project:
** DONE This was done
* STARTED Not stuck project :project:
** TODO Next project
C-a # won't show "Stuck Project". That's because the project line's "STARTED"
is found in org-agenda-skip via the
org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches-in-subtree.
I really want it to be
org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-ONLY-matches-in-subtree.
To do that, I hacked up the function to capture a "begin" point after
the headline.
(defun org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches-in-subtree ()
"Checks if the current subtree contains match for `org-agenda-skip-regexp'.
If yes, it returns the end position of the current entry (NOT the tree),
causing agenda commands to skip the entry but continuing the search in
the subtree. This is a function that can be put into
`org-agenda-skip-function' for the duration of a command. An important
use of this function is for the stuck project list."
(let ((begin (save-excursion (org-end-of-line) (1- (point))))
(end (save-excursion (org-end-of-subtree t)))
(entry-end (save-excursion (outline-next-heading) (1- (point))))
skip)
(save-excursion
(goto-char begin)
(setq skip (re-search-forward org-agenda-skip-regexp end t)))
(and skip entry-end)))
If this change is too radical, it might make sense to modify
org-agenda-list-stuck-projects to let the user define the skip function via
an element in org-stuck-projects.
I'm thinking something like this...
(let* ((org-agenda-skip-function
(or (nth 4 org-stuck-projects)
'org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches-in-subtree))
That would enable everyone to control the org-agenda-skip-function.
