[Orgmode] Org-mode version 5.08
Org-mode version 5.08 is available at http://orgmode.org Enjoy - Carsten Changes in Version 5.08 --- * Incompatible changes - The default for `org-deadline-warning-days' is now 14. * Details - There is now a separate interface for fast and directly setting a TODO keyword. This interface kicks in when you have configured keys for TODO keywords like #+SEQ_TODO: TODO(t) WAITING(w) | DONE(d) CANCELED(c) C-c C-t still does the cycling thing, you need to use a prefix argument to get to the fast interface. Or configure the variable `org-use-fast-todo-selection' to t, then this will be the default and the prefix argument will make the command fall back to cycling. The tag selection no longer does include TODO keywords - Leo's arguments have convinced me that this is not a good idea. If you'd like to see the TODO keywords in the tags interface anyway, set the variable `org-fast-tag-selection-include-todo'. Thanks to Leo and others for input on this issue. - New variable `org-edit-timestamp-down-means-later'. When set, `S-down' on a timestamp will change the timestamp to later. Thanks to Raman for this idea. - Property names can now contain non-ascii word characters. This follows a request from Daniel Clemente. - For export, the date that should be given in the exported file can now be set to a specific value with a line like #+DATE: 15 November 2003 If you want to use the date/time when the file was created, use a format string that will be interpreted by `format-time-string', for example: #+DATE: %Y/%m/%d %X - The default of `org-deadline-warning-days' has changed to 14 days. 30 was really too much, I suspect most people (me included) have changed this. - When a deadline has an individual lead time, this lead time obviously overrules `org-deadline-warning-days'. However, if you bind `org-deadline-warning-days' to a number <=0, for example during a custom agenda command, then the absolute value of this number will be enforced also when a different lead time has been specified. This is useful to get a list of all deadlines coming up in the next N days. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode
[Orgmode] Agenda Focus Mode - An Agenda Idea.
Hi, I keep a list of Project and Next Action verbs in my org file. When i am creating a Next Action or Project headline i try and use these verbs to help keep the language project and action focused. For example my current lists are: Project Verbs --- | Finalize | Resolve | Handle | Examine | Submit | | Maximize | Organize | Complete | Ensure | Update | | Install | Implement | Set-up | Design | Next Action Verbs | Call | Organize | Review | Buy | Fill out | Find | | Purge | Examine | Gather | Print | Take | Load | | Draft | Email| 'Focus Mode' is essentially the same concept as the stuck projects idea. A tool to help me keep projects on track by ensuring that i use more action oriented language for headlines . This is mostly for tasks, but can be used for projects too. I was thinking another agenda search type might do it for me. Something like tags-todo-occur. Like tags-todo, but with a header regexp as well. Example Syntax: "<+->/<+->:" It is general enough to be able to be used by others, but i can also use it to create my Agenda Focus mode. As i could not find any mechanism like this i thought i would suggest it, to see if other people might find it useful.

You need to define at least one shortcut, Org-mode will assign the rest.

[Orgmode] Scheduled events persists unless deleted
Hi! Still very new to Org... my setup is very simple at the moment, 1 file for work and 1 file for home. At the top of each of those files, I keep a "* Event" entry and I put my meetings and events under there. If , for example, and event is scheduled for yesterday, it will show up today as well in my agenda, with "2x" in front of it. I have to delete the entry if I want it to go away. Since these are often not related to ToDo, I would like to keep them but I would like them to appear only on the day they are scheduled. Is it possible?

[Orgmode] canonical modifications to makefile for ubuntu feisty emacs 22.1.1?
Hi all, In addition to being pretty new to org-mode, I'm also an emacs novice. I am running ubuntu feisty with emacs 22.1.1 from the feisty backports repository. At some point, I made a mess of things in upgrading org-mode; stupidly I sometimes modified the makefile so as to install the local lisp files to a local lisp tree ~/emacs/site-lisp (loaded by my .emacs) and sometimes so that they ended up in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp. My bad. This just bit me as I installed 5.08 and ended up running 5.07a despite that until I worked things out. Bandage applied to foot, all seems fine for now. But, I'd like not to shoot myself again. As yet, I've been modifying the makefile on the basis of hope, rather than knowledge. Could someone with a similar OS/emacs combo please suggest what's the right thing to do?

Re: [Orgmode] Scheduled events persists unless deleted

Still very new to Org... my setup is very simple at the moment, 1 file for work and 1 file for home. At the top of each of those files, I keep a "* Event" entry and I put my meetings and events under there. If , for example, and event is scheduled for yesterday, it will show up today as well in my agenda, with "2x" in front of it. I have to delete the entry if I want it to go away. Since these are often not related to ToDo, I would like to keep them but I would like them to appear only on the day they are scheduled. Is it possible? Thanks, Carl, I'm reflexively anti top-posting. But, I guess you can take Carsten's practice to indicate that I might have been wrong about top posting to this list :-) Carsten, Your question seems a tough one to me. I almost posted the same form of question when I first encountered org-mode. Once I worked it out, I looked over the manual to see how it was I missed it, and what changes might have made that less likely. No offence to Carl or any other posers of the question, but I couldn't see how I did miss it, and I concluded my brain had been on the fritz when I read the relevant parts :-) Perhaps part of the issue is that the TODO items chapter comes long before the timestamp chapter? Maybe that naturally leads many minds to think that TODO's are org-mode's basic way of registering events, etc.? I've not reread all the relevant sections in a while and this is typed pretty much at the speed of thought. But, perhaps it would help to add the following text to the end of 8.3 Deadlines and Scheduling: ``SCHEDULED and DEADLINE keywords introduce advanced warnings into the agenda display for the items with which they are associated. If you wish an item to be included in the agenda display on some particular day without any notation of an impending event introduced into the display of previous days of the agenda, simply include an active timestamp in the item without any SCHEDULED or DEADLINE keywords. You will still be able to see such items coming up when viewing the agenda display in week/month/year view, but there will be no notation introduced into the display of the days in advance of the day of the timestamp.'' That's clumsy, but it's the best I can do in the time I have :-) HTH, Brian vdB ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode

Brian van den Broek said unto the world upon 09/05/2007 10:42 AM: Hi all, In addition to being pretty new to org-mode, I'm also an emacs novice. I am running ubuntu feisty with emacs 22.1.1 from the feisty backports repository. At some point, I made a mess of things in upgrading org-mode; stupidly I sometimes modified the makefile so as to install the local lisp files to a local lisp tree ~/emacs/site-lisp (loaded by my .emacs) and sometimes so that they ended up in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp. My bad. Could someone with a similar OS/emacs combo please suggest what's the right thing to do? Hi all, I got a couple of off-list replies. I summarize them here for future googlers :-) Both replies suggested that ~/emacs/site-lisp was probably the right thing. (You can ensure that works by including a line like (add-to-list 'load-path "/home/brian/emacs/site-lisp") early in your .emacs.) The really helpful bit was reminding me that I ought to run the make dance as me, rather than by sudo'ing. This will ensure that the process will only work if I am indeed installing into my local directory.

When sent as a follow-up question to an answer I've posted, there is a risk that I won't notice it was sent to me privately, and the original inquirer won't get further help.

[Orgmode] Two org-remember bugs in 5.07
Hi,
I think I've discovered two problems with org's remember integration.
Sadly I use 5.07 since 5.08 hasn't been incorporated Emacs trunk yet.
Here's my remember setup:
--8<---cut here---start->8---
(setq org-default-notes-file "~/org/main.org"
org-remember-default-headline "Remember"
org-remember-templates '(;; TODOs
(?t "* TODO %?\n(created: %U)\n%i\n%a")
;; Ideas
(?i "* Idea: %^{Title}\n(created:
%U)\n%?\n%i\n%a")
;; Notes
(?n "* Note: %?\n(created: %U)\n%i\n%a")))
(setq remember-annotation-functions '(org-remember-annotation)
remember-handler-functions'(org-remember-handler)
org-remember-store-without-prompt t)
(add-hook 'remember-mode-hook 'org-remember-apply-template)
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
The file ~/org/main.org is my only org file. It starts with
* Remember
#+CATEGORY: Remember
** TODO ...
...
and several level-1 headlines and categories follow. When I file an
item with remember, it should be added as subitem to the "* Remember"
headline.
Bug 1: That doesn't happen. The new TODO, idea or note is appended to
the file. It's always the last entry of the last headline. I also
tried letting org-remember-default-headline at its default value ""
and used remember templates like
(?t "* TODO %?\n(created: %U)\n%i\n%a" nil "Remember")
but that makes no difference. I also tried using "* Remember" as
headline, but still no luck.
Bug 2: The docs say
,[ (info "(org)Storing notes") ]
| If the variable `org-adapt-indentation' is non-nil, the entire
| text is also indented so that it starts in the same column as the
| headline (after the asterisks).
`
but that doesn't happen, although its value is t. For example a todo
made with the remember template above results in something like this.
--8<---cut here---start->8---
** TODO test
(created: [2007-09-05 Wed 18:02])
[[info:org:Storing%20notes][org:Storing notes]]
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
I would expect the "(created..." and the link to be aligned with the
headline. I inserted spaces after the \n in the template, because the
doc-string of `org-adapt-indentation' says that column 0 entries in
the body won't be aligned, but then only the single space is inserted,
resulting in
--8<---cut here---start->8---
** TODO test
(created: [2007-09-05 Wed 18:02])
[[info:org:Storing%20notes][org:Storing notes]]
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
I'll check if the problem still persists with 5.08 as soon as it's
included in the emacs trunk. Please ping me when that's done.
Bye,
Tassilo

[Orgmode] new (?) bug (?) in org-remember
Hi all -- The question marks are because I'm not sure this is new; nor am I sure it's a bug. However, I noticed today that if I'm in an agenda view and call org-remember, I get the remember buffer and the initial prompt asking me to select a template. When I select the template, the remember buffer remains empty and I get "wrong type argument: stringp, nil" in the mini-buffer. Everything works as expected if I call org-remember while in an org buffer. I'm not sure that this is new with org 5.08 because I've only recently increased my use of both agenda and org-remember significantly. And I don't know whether the call to org-remember is supposed to work while in agenda view.
