One alternative to setting a lot of ARCHIVE properties in your file
would be to rely on sparse tree filtering and property searches in the
archive file to see items that used belonging to particular headlines
in the original file. If you set org-archive-save-context-info to
include olpath, the outline headings will be saved as a property of
the archived subheadling, enabling you to filter by original location
in the tree. 

>>> * Work
>>> ** Finsh DBMS
>>> *** TODO Define schema
>>> *** TODO Write code
>>> ** Implement API
>>> *** TODO Develop prototype
>>>
>>> * Home
>>> ** Clean garage
>>> *** TODO Buy shelves
>>> *** TODO Install shelves

For example if you archived "Clean Garage," it would appear in your
archive file as:

* Clean Garage
  :PROPERTIES:
  :ARCHIVE_OLPATH: Home
  [...]
  :END:

Thus, in your example, you could filter by "Work" or by "Home" in the
archive file. You can also optionally save information about CATEGORY,
tags, file, etc. This would enable you to retain your dynamic archive
file names using setq-org-archive-location, while still having the
power to filter by type of work. Here's what I use:

(setq org-archive-location (concat "~/archive/" (format-time-string \
"%Y") ".org::* " (format-time-string "%B")))

Which currently produces:

~/archive/2008.org::* December

Using sparse trees, I can get a quick chronological overview of the
entire year, filtered for particular types of work.

This may not be what you are looking for, but I thought I'd share this
possibility in case it helps.

Just one more example of the astounding power and functionality of
org!

Best,
Matt

[Orgmode] bug: superfluous tags when exporting verse and quote blocks

2008-12-07 Thread Xerxes Folupa

Hi,

I spotted a little inconsistency in the way Org strips tags when  
processing #+begin_verse ... #+end_verse, and #+begin_quote ...  
#+end_quote blocks, compared with other literal blocks that strip  
superfluous  tags correctly (e.g. #+html)


org-version: Org-mode version 6.14

emacs-version: GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)

As usual, it's easier to request a fix than to implement it yourself...

===

* Sample input:


#+begin_verse
one
two
#+end_verse

paragraph.

#+begin_quote
one. --author
#+end_quote

* Output:



one 
two 



paragraph.




one. –author




* Desired, 'valid xhtml' output:


one 
two 


paragraph.



one. –author



===

Additional question: is the space before the  in verse blocks a  
design decision?


Cheers,
Xerxes

A new tax year is starting up and I'm looking at how I do accounting
again — along with all the regrets about the past being less than
perfect.

Adapting my usage of Org for invoicing to work with org-invoice would
help a lot.  Integrating it with ledger would help that much more.

I don't know what this means.  Can you explain in more detail?

Org and Ledger (was: [Orgmode] Re: [ANN] Org Invoice 1.0.0)

Hi Mark,

John Wiegley also asked me recently if there would be a path for  
intergating
Org with ledger in some way, because apparently this has been brought  
up on the ledger mailing list.  I have never used ledger, and so I  
have no picture in my head of what would be useful.  Maybe we should  
have a discussion of ideas here?

Ledger rocks as a double entry accounting tool. I've been using it for
some basic accounting, expense reports, and more with latex & perl. I
even wrote a CSV importer (CSV2Ledger) that provides much of the
functionality I felt was missing from importers in other packages (ie:
Gnucash).

On the flip side, Ledger is exactly that, a double entry accounting
tool. Not more, or less. I'm faced with needing the ability to
integrate it into some business workflows (ie: expense reporting,
invoicing cycles, tax reporting, etc) which I'll have to write all of
the logic myself. I can use Ledger for the data, but I have to code
the workflows I require.

I've been struggling with this for several months, because I want to
avoid solutions like Quickbooks that provide a workflow coupled to an
accounting backend with proprietary formats in that other OS. I'm
certainly open to suggestions.

Thanks.

Re: [Orgmode] property searches for #+CATEGORY

2008-12-07 Thread Mario E. Munich
Dear all,

I am sorry to bother you with a silly question, but I have read all the
postings on the orgmode list on how to separate files for work and
personal using the CATEGORY stuff. I have implemented the method, but I
cannot get org-agenda-custom-commands to search properly in each
category. Any pointers/help would be highly appreciated (or other method
in case that it would be more appropriated)

Best regards,

-Mario

[Orgmode] Saving column views in agenda

2008-12-07 Thread Matthew Lundin

I often use dynamic blocks to save/export column views in org-mode
files. Does anyone know of a similar way to export/save a column view
from the agenda? When I write the agenda to a file, it naturally
writes only the text (not the column overlay).

Regards,
Matt
