Evaluating the field formulas before the column formulas is in general a bad idea. Results of the field formulas will always be overwritten by the column formulas (if there is a conflict).

[Orgmode] How to track time spent on a project
Hi, I want to track the time that I'll spend on a new project. For this I'm planning to use org-mode's clocking feature, so far my first tests (I've never used org-agenda before) showed me that I can do this easily from the agenda view, as long as I have a DATE: property in my node. And that's a bit of a problem because I don't really have a scheduled date when I'm going to work on a part of this project. Is there a way in org-mode to just clock the time and have the agenda view show me on the views for every day (or time interval) just the clocked times for every tree item that fall into this time interval/range? And how can I start clocking items that do not show up in the agenda view? I'm not sure if it's understandable what I want, so I here's a small example org-file and a description of what I want to see and how I want to work on it: Basic layout of the org-file: * Part 1 :CLOCK: CLOCK: [2009-07-20 Mon 12:40]--[2009-07-20 Mon 14:43] => 2:03 CLOCK: [2009-07-23 Thu 22:28]--[2009-07-23 Thu 22:48] => 0:20 :END: * Part 2 :CLOCK: CLOCK: [2009-07-24 Fri 09:45]--[2009-07-24 Fri 11:15] => 1:30 :END: What I want: (Re-)start at any time the clocking of one of either Part 1 or Part 2 whenever I'm working on it and get summaries of the total working times on a day, week, or whatever time interval I want and the total working time I've spent on the project or single parts on it. I assume that a lot of you are using org-mode exactly for this purpose and probably you know how to do it better, so if you have any suggestions how I could do it better please tell me :-) Thanks, Geralt. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Just visit the org file with the task you want to clock in and do C-c C-x C-i to clock it in. C-c C-x C-o stops the clock (or when you clock in something else it stops). You can only clock one thing at a time. Play with it in a test task to see how it works. You can clock in from the agenda directly (if it's visible there) with just I (and O for clock out) I've documented how I use clocking stuff here: http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html#Clocking >I'm not sure if it's understandable what I want, so I here's a > small example org-file and a description of what I want to see and how > I want to work on it: > Basic layout of the org-file: > * Part 1 > :CLOCK: > CLOCK: [2009-07-20 Mon 12:40]--[2009-07-20 Mon 14:43] => 2:03 > CLOCK: [2009-07-23 Thu 22:28]--[2009-07-23 Thu 22:48] => 0:20 > :END: > * Part 2 > :CLOCK: > CLOCK: [2009-07-24 Fri 09:45]--[2009-07-24 Fri 11:15] => 1:30 > :END: > > What I want: > (Re-)start at any time the clocking of one of either Part 1 or Part 2 > whenever I'm working on it and get summaries of the total working > times on a day, week, or whatever time interval I want and the total > working time I've spent on the project or single parts on it. > > > I assume that a lot of you are using org-mode exactly for this purpose > and probably you know how to do it better, so if you have any > suggestions how I could do it better please tell me :-) The agenda is not limited to date ranges. You can find tasks to clock in via the agenda in lots of ways such as: - tags searches (C-c a m) - org-occur searches by regexp (C-c a /) - custom agenda view etc. I tend to clock in tasks that show up on my agenda for today, or from STARTED or NEXT tag searches.

Re: [Orgmode] Clean Org Clock with step
Thank you, this one would save my eyes a bit! Just looking at the output, maybe this could be implemented as a regexp replace on the entire block performed after putting together the tables? Just thinking it might save you some headache, if you don't think it's too ugly of a hack. And while I'm at it - my employer requires me to report not only what I'm doing and how long it takes, but also when I'm doing it. I assume most people wouldn't benefit from a feature like this, and that there are many other things on the wish list with higher priority, so I'm just asking if someone could point out an API guide or something like that, it would be wonderful.

[Orgmode] Script to get org-mode working on your cell phone.
Hi, I recently ran across this comment in the org-mode survey: > I'm on the lookout for a cell phone that runs Emacs, but… I haven't > found any mechanisms for remotely adding/editing timestamps, > changing the state of TODO items, etc. Neither have I found a way > to trigger reminder sounds, e-mails, phone calls, or IM messages. > I'm not sure about the best way to approach "mobile org-mode"… > A web-interface like Webjimbo? More robust import/export/sync to > iCal or GData? If we can find a way to usefully sync org-mode with > mobile devices, it'll be just about perfect. After reading that comment, I wrote cellphone.el that makes it possible to actually do stuff in emacs on your cell phone. I have a cell phone with a ssh app, a (very) small qwerty keyboard and left/right arrow keys, but since there's no Ctrl or Alt keys, working in Emacs is a pain (every time you need the Ctrl key, you need to go through a menu). cellphone.el works by setting up several "cellphone keymaps". Each cellphone keymap binds the letter keys a-z to commands of your choice. An "orgmode" keymap is included as an example. You can easily select the keymap with left/right arrow keys. Please let me know your opinion about the script, as well as any tips of getting more productive with orgmode on your cell phone.

Unfortunately it seems there are several concurrent git-mode implementations available. I will check out for vc and magit... overall it look like maybe great portions of "my" idea are realised in one or the other form already. Maybe there is only some more glue necessary to bind all this together to make it even more easy to use it directly in org-mode ?! > That said, I think it would be nice to be able to create links to > particular git commits. In my post I thought I like to give a picture of what might be all possible by combining git and org-mode. However my initial idea was to preserve links. Thus, I have no problem to synthesis the idea to a much more clean and foccused point of having *frozen-links*. If I link to a file which is part of a git-repro (maybe added by org-attach.el) I would like to have the option to tag the git-repro and visit the state of the git-repro at the time the link was created. A link might look like [the link]@ or [the link]@"first commit line" to indicate that this is a "frozen" link in a git system, different colours might indicate whehter the content changed already over time. I think only this new feature might be able to introduce org-mode as a very nice tool the managment of programming projects. All programmers of an project can beside of the source code keep org-files for more verbose description and ideas with plenty links to the source code itself and the frozen links make sure that the thinks they refer to never become wrong or obsolete. In general, I just realised that org-mode might be an nice solution for programming project managment. Starting from writing up your requirement specification, discussion and explaination among the dev-team as well as the documentation. All can be done in a org-file beside the source code helping to make make comments in the source code itself not to verbose. Nice will try it out soon As for all the other parts which might be an advantage by using git, you might be right and it is covered by the tools you mentioned already.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: Results of the SourceForge Community Award
Org-mode has virtually replaced a large number of Emacs modes for me. I haven't even figured out how to communicate to Emacs users and non-users alike how much it has changed my workflow. Every day it seems I discover some new feature, or try to hack something on that's already there. Thank you Carsten, Bastien, and everyone, especially the community, for such a useful tool!

That's an interesting point. I started using org-mode randomly, because I was writing an outline and didn't care for outline-mode and figured org-mode should be compatible.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: Results of the SourceForge Community Award
Until about a month ago, I was a non-emacs user; and indeed, I thought it's bad looking and, in some respects, primitive. The reason I started using it anyway is org-mode: I wanted a decent outliner, and none of the others I tried fit my way of working. So I gave it a try despite the way it looks. Now I use emacs+org-mode for outlining, planning, taking notes, drafting papers, and almost anything else that has to do with text. As far as I'm concerned, org-mode is no longer just 'likely to change' the way I do everything. Gabi User wrote: > No wonder it didn't win.

This is a very helpful discussion. I'm currently working on a tutorial and screencast that highlights the outlining/publishing features of org-mode that work without any customization ("org-mode out of the box," so to speak). I'll try to get it online as soon as I can. I think GTD-fatigue is one of the major reasons that people might not be aware of just how powerful and versatile org-mode is. My highly unscientific conclusion is that many people think of it as one more GTD/day-planner/time-management application, when, in fact, it could can as a fully functional outliner, plain-text database, "word processor," spreadsheet, etc. As evidence in support of your point, here's an article on "5 Linux Outliners" from Linux.com (Oct. 2008) that only mentions Emacs outliner in passing ("very basic," it says).

Most of the I am a very long time emacs user (~25 years) (mind you, I'm an even longer vi user... ;-) but even I didn't start using org-mode until recently (last year). I did try it a couple of years ago but wasn't impressed for some reason. In the meantime, I started using planner, muse and todo. I'd used outline-mode for quite a while. Anyway, I subsequently ran across Carsten's google tech talk and I decided to try org-mode again. What a difference! I think having used all these disparate tools, each with their own way of working, and then finding that org-mode essentially handled all of them in a consistent manner was a huge selling point. Essentially, what I'm saying is that Carsten's tech talk is one key advertising element we should ensure stays prominent wherever possible! eric ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Subfloats in LaTeX
Dear community, How do I stick a group of figures together (i.e. so that I have Fig. 1 and then a, b, c)? Alternatively, is there a way I can keep images inline and yet use captions? Whenever I add a #+CAPTION:, it's turned into \figure and floating is turned on. What I'm trying to do is make a section that consists of a sequence of images. I've searched the orgmode manual but can't figure out a way short of generating the LaTeX file and editing it directly (hardly ideal!). That said, I've never tried to do this in LaTeX so I guess it may not be possible (although it would surprise me!).

One of the things that I find astonishing is that it does so many disparate things so well. For planning and organising there is nothing to match its flexibility AND its power; yet it doesn't force any particular method of organising on you. They all work, and you can be as sloppy as you like. As an outliner...well it is THE outliner as far as I'm concerned. For years I've been searching for the perfect writing tool. I found it.

I am working on a simple Worg page which will describe what are the benefits of org-mode over outline-mode as a major-mode for the Emacs files like etc/TODO and admin/FOR-RELEASE. I hope this will be good enough to convince Emacs developers.

[Orgmode] SEQ_TODO and Headline percentages
Hi Everyone, Is there a way for non-SEQ_TODO labeled sub-headings to still count in the headline percentage? Examples are in order... Currently: * Some Project [100%] As you can see in this example, the headings % is 100 because the first sub heading has no "SEQ_TODO" label. * Sub heading with no SEQ_TODO label * DONE sub heading with label Desired: * Some Project [50%] Note the non-labeled sub-heading results in only 50% * Sub heading with no SEQ_TODO label * DONE sub heading with label At the current time, my "fix" is to go ahead and give a label to all sub-headings. So the above example would have to have something, perhaps "CREATED" or "Qd" (queued). I'm hoping to alleviate this. Thanks, and glad to be back with Org-Mode... --- David A.
