[Orgmode] pabbrev
Hi all, I just discovered pabbrev-mode (http://homepages.cs.ncl.ac.uk/phillip.lord/download/emacs/pabbrev.el), which seems really great, but in org-mode (5.09) the suggestions don't show up until i press TAB twice (meaning that if there are several suggestions, I have to press 0-9 to choose one each time). Does anyone know of a way to get it to work alright with org-mode? (I understand that the TAB key is "taken" for view-cycling when in headlines, but I can't see any good reason why the suggestions shouldn't automatically show up in org-mode...) -- Kevin Brubeck Unhammer Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/ ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] [BUG?] Diary entries do not appear in timeline

Is that a bug ? H, including the diary entries would make this operation very expensive, because every day would have to be checked, starting from an unknown starting date in the past to an unknown ending date in the future. The timeline display is fast because if first makes a list of dates in the buffer and then gets full displays only for these. This means that dates with repeaters and diary stuff will not work, unless by chance - i.e. if the day is being listed anyway because some other simple timestamp pointed to it. It may be better to use restricted call to the daily/weekly agenda for this, but force a starting date and a number of days to check. - Carsten ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

I think it's better to rely on usual kill/yank procedures when the moves are not hierarchy-dependant. A really stupid solution is also to promote the entry to top level with M-left, then to move it down with M-down, then to demote it again with M-right.

Enjoy! - Carsten Version 5.09 * Overview - Taking a note upon TODO state changes can be restricted to selected states. - The format in which dates are shown in the daily/weekly agenda can be configured. - The default for `org-remember-store-without-prompt' is now t. - `org-goto' has been made into a general lookup command. - Priority cycling goes back to the nil state. - You can store a remember note to the *last used* location. - On Emacs 23, the headline faces for org-mode are now inherited from the outline faces. * Incompatible Changes - The default for `org-remember-store-without-prompt' is now t, in order to better match the original intent of remember.el (storing a note with minimum interruption of work flow). I expect that many people will be hit by this incompatible change - nevertheless I believe it is the right thing to do. * Details - You can now select specific states for recording a note when switching to that state. With the setting #+SEQ_TODO: TODO(t) ORDERED(o@) INVOICE(i@) PAYED(p) | RECEIVED(r) #+STARTUP: lognotestate only the states ORDERED and INVOICE will record a timestamp and a note. - You can now set the format of the string for each day in the agenda and timeline buffers. You can use a format string interpreted by `format-time-string', or you can write your own function. Configure the new variable `org-agenda-format-date'. Thanks to Levin for triggering this development with a patch. - The default for `org-remember-store-without-prompt' is now t, in order to better match the original intent of remember.el (storing a note with minimum interruption of work flow). Since we can assign files and headlines to templates, I guess this takes care of selecting a filing location in most cases. For interactive filing, you now need a prefix command when exiting `remember'. - `org-goto' (bound to `C-c C-j') now uses an indirect buffer and has additional commands enabled: Org-occur with `C-c /' or even faster with `/', and the commands needed to select and copy a region. This make `org-goto' a more general lookup command instead of only a jumping command. Remember that you can exit with `Q' to go back to the original location. Thanks to William Henney for this idea. - Setting the priority with S-up/down now cycles back to a state where no priority is specified. This was requested by Rick Moynihan. - You can store a remember note to the *last used* location. So if you select a location interactively once, you can re-use it without having to find it again. For this, exit the remember buffer with `C-u C-u C-c C-c'. The leading comment in the remember buffer will tell exactly where the note goes if you exit with a particular command. Thanks to Maxim Loginov for this idea. - On Emacs 23, the headline faces for org-mode are now inherited from the outline faces. This is just a convenience, so that you only have to configure one set of faces, and that will then be outline-1 .. outline-8. You will actually not see any difference in org-mode, because Stefan Monnier has made the outline faces in Emacs 23 to match the current org-mode faces.

[Orgmode] Inform about unviewable changes
Hi, I have in a document a large section: a title (with a TODO tag) and a lot of lines, so many that they don't fit in the screen. I'm at the end and I don't see the title. I want to cycle the completion tag (from TODO to the next state). I press C-c C-t and it works... but I don't see anything. I must go manually to check that now the tag is the one I expected. Maybe org could show a message at the minibuffer describing the change? For instance „Set tag DONE to section "** make dinner"". Or „Changed from TODO to DONE in section "** make dinner"". Or simply „Set tag DONE", or „Changed from TODO to DONE". Just like paren-mode when the matched parenthesis is too far away. 5.09, Emacs21.

Re: [Orgmode] org-mode PDAs
I would like to know if there are any PDA or Smartphone devices to use with org-mode, and be able to sync between them with ease. Since the files are plain text anything that is capable of syncing plain text files should work. Although you can edit/display the files on your pda, I think that hardly any pda's can run emacs, so you lose a lot of the functionality of being able to use org mode. For simply referring to data in your files I find that exporting my org files to html, copying to my phone, then viewing them on my smartphone's browser works well.

That sounds appealing. But how would you type C-x? Hold down right ctrl and type 'x'. That is not the same as in normal pc. I wonder if this will spoil your muscle memory.

How would these two things match? I don't think that most people would choose to run Emacs on a PDA (phone) if they had a desktop/laptop available. The scenario where Emacs on a phone seems attractive is when your only options are Emacs on your phone or writing on your hand. As someone who's used Emacs on a HTC Mogul though[1], I completely agree with your point. Generally PDAs/phones don't make very good Emacs devices, not so much because typing on their keyboards is slow, but because almost all physical phone keyboards (excluding external keyboards) lack Control and Meta keys. As you can imagine, Emacs without Control or Meta is not very useful or fun.
