Thanks I had to look up what the headline field was. Also didn't know
whether to use "top", 'top, or top. So here's my working template to save
some people time.

Hi Matt, Thanks for these links.
I thought org-mode with some remember capture templates will do that
stuff rather efficiently.
It depends on what you'd like to accomplish. For a robust accounting
solution (i.e., something that can easily tracks all your finances and
can spit out data in all sorts of ways) I would second Carsten's
recommendation of John Wiegley's ledger.
For a while, I tried a home-brewed double bookkeeping solution in org
mode using properties and columns. I used a small subtree for each
transaction with one subitem for the debit and one for the credit,
with
properties spendtype, account, assets, liabilities, income, equity,
expenses. The structure of the tree was as follows:
Yes, this is pretty much what I was intending to keep track of. I did
setup something similar to the outline below. Also, a remember
capture, with tags and property query for entry and the category:
("Finance" ?f "** %^{Title} %^g \n %u %^{HOW_MUCH}p %^{CATEGORY}p" "~/
Org/Finance.org")
,
| * Accounts
| ** April
| *** [2009-04-13 Mon] Transaction Name
| [2009-04-13 Mon] Debit
| [2009-04-13 Mon] Credit
| *** Opening Balances...
`
The sum of all my accounts could then be viewed by invoking column
view
on the Accounts heading. Particular accounts could by summed up by
using
agenda views and org-collector.
Yes, this will suffice. I will start off with using column view and
see how this scales.
Thanks for your notes.
Regards, Madhu
The problem here, of course, is that once you have a large number of
entries, it takes a lot of CPU cycles just to generate an account
summary, since org-mode has to climb the entire outline tree and grab

power, speed, and flexibility.

[Orgmode] #+include: export header lines
Dear list,
I'm failing to work out how to #+include: a file containing export
header directives in such a way that the directives are obeyed.
I tried creating this file tmp.org
#+include: "~/src/common/org-header.org"
* heading 1
where the contents of org-header.org are
#+OPTIONS:H:3 num:nil toc:t \n:nil @:t ::t |:t ^:{} -:t f:t *:t TeX:t
LaTeX:t skip:nil d:(HIDE) tags:not-in-toc
#+STYLE:
#+AUTHOR: Dan Davison
#+EMAIL: davi...@stats.ox.ac.uk
* this is org-header; that_1 shouldn't be a subscript
On export of tmp.org I *do* get the heading from org-header.org, but I
do not get the effects of the export directives in org-header.org
(dan.css didn't happen, and the _1 subscript comes out as a
subscript). In contrast when I export org-header.org itself, I do of
course get the effects of the export options.
I am conscious that most if not all of my previous posts of this nature
have resulted in me being pointed to the section of the manual I
*should* have been familiar with! So, for the record, for this problem I
looked at
http://orgmode.org/manual/Export-options.html#Export-options
http://orgmode.org/manual/Include-files.html#index-g_t_0023_002bINCLUDE-878
OTOH I just grepped through the contents of Worg and found no such
mechanism being used, so perhaps I am for once asking for something that
doesn't already exist.
Thanks a lot,
Dan

[Orgmode] How to fold a footer
Hi, this is a minor issue. I'd like three sections and a footer: * Section 1 111 * Section 2 222 * Section 3 333 --- Footer However, the footer appears as part of section 3, and it is hidden in the outline view (you don't know there will be a footer until you expand section 3). If I add a new section, „* Footer“, then this heading will be exported; this is also not nice. Is there some trick to add a footer at the end? (I think org-publish can add footers, but I would prefer a solution inside the same file; something like #+TEXT: but for footers).

[Orgmode] Name of file being exported.
[apologies if this is a repost. I was not on the list] Hello everyone, I'm a recent org-mode convert (after hearing the talk) and without question, it's one of the best things I've ever used. Thank you for making such a wonderful program. However, org-mode and emacs being what they are, I'm tempted to try and customise it to do more. :) I'm trying a simple trick to insert the version control history of my current file formatted as a table when I export the org file into HTML or ascii. I need this to track changes to design documents etc. I'm using dynamic blocks to do this and have a function defined to insert the output of git log --pretty='format:|%ad|%s|' (buffer-file-name) into the block. This works fine if I run org-update-all-dblocks from the org buffer itself manually. If I export it however, (buffer-file-name) returns a null string so I get the entire log of my repository which is not what I want. Is there a way to get the buffer/file which is being exported so that I can use that in the command rather than buffer-file-name?
