[Orgmode] Viewing org Files on Your Phone (continuing an old thread)
I have finally almost beaten my worg contribution about using org files on mobile devices into shape. Sorry it has taken so long, but all sorts of unexpected things have happened over the last couple of months! It still needs some editing, so I thought I would open it up for comments/improvements before finally uploading it to worg.

[Orgmode] Q: How to search dates within current week
Q: How to search dates within current week [ I am posting this according to //gmane.org/post.php instructions. I hope this works. ] I am a beginner in using Orgmode. I would like to search for CLOSED items within the current week. The closest posting was in 2007 entitled "search for dates as tag or property" http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/4506/match=date+search I tried 2 approaches but have some problems. 1) Keywords - today, tomorrow, yesterday Is there a keyword for "thisweek"? in the vein of "today", "tomorrow". where "thisweek" means the current Mon-Sun window. 2) Match string : +CLOSED>="<-1w>"+CLOSED<="<0w>" Currently -1w is a moving window of the last 7 days, so the search result will change every day. It is also possible there are simpler solutions I have not thought of. For example, the Timeline would serve my purpose except that currently, it only shows scheduled items, not closed items.

(and following up on my own post...) What I would probably do if this is something you need often is make a custom agenda view which sets org-agenda-log-mode-items to closed, and then view the agenda for a week starting from some specific date with the log items on. This should be much faster than the timeline view (L) since it limits the date range you are looking at. -Bernt ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Re: suggestion: simplify depth stepping of document structure (outline) visibility
Hi all, One reply is not that much feedback yet..., maybe I tried to be detailed but was not clear enough? Ok, I thought after having submitted a few bug reports before, it would be good to contribute in a way a bit more constructive this time ;-) and implemented what I have described in my previous post for headings (not for list elements). For those who are interested in trying it out: First you will have to upgrade to org-version 6.31a or newer (or take into account http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/17441) and then put the code at the end of this post e. g. into your .emacs file and start a new Emacs. Use `C->' and `C-<' repeatedly back and forth on your files that have at least a few heading levels and tell how useful you find it. I find the usage of my-orgstruct-dive very intuitive in contrast to the complicated look of both the description in my previous post and my implementation here. As a nice side effect this function also brings two functionalities from outline-mode to org-mode which I am missing in org-mode: outline-mode-`C-c C-q' (hide everything lower than heading level at point (cursor)) and outline-mode-`C-c C-i' (show direct subheadings but not body of heading at point).

Carsten, The following seems to work: --8<---cut here---start->8--- (defadvice ecb-method-clicked (after esf/org-show-context) "Make sure hierarchy is visible when jumping into location from ECB tree buffer" (if (string= major-mode "org-mode") (org-show-context) ) ) --8<---cut here---end--->8--- I have tested this but not exhaustively and so maybe it depends on some of my specific org-mode settings.

[Orgmode] Re: `C-u 2 S-Tab' with `#+STARTUP: odd'
I have troube understanding what you mean. An outline heading looks like this *** heading If the cursor is at the first character of that line, org-outline-level will return 3. I want `3' _independently_ of on which column the cursor is on that line and therefore use (save-excursion (beginning-of-line) (org-outline-level)). If the line looks different, the return value will be badly determined (governed by the most recent match of a regular expression anywhere in Emacs, might be anything). To cover this I use (outline-on-heading-p), without the optional parameter in my case. If you need to find out, in a lisp program, if you are at the beginning of a headline, use (and (org-at-heading-p t) (bolp)) The matter is that within any one line I rather want to _ignore_ the column than to _know_ on which column the cursor is. With all discussed here in this thread combined together I use (if (outline-on-heading-p) (org-reduced-level (save-excursion (beginning-of-line) (org-outline-level))) '0))) for my suggestion of heading visibility depth stepping described here http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/17581/focus=18392 ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] feature request: scroll other window in agenda view follow mode
Carsten, I wonder whether I could request a small feature addition in org-mode (or have a pointer to already implemented functionality, of course ;-)? Using the agenda view with follow mode is fantastic for complex agenda views. What I find, however, is that I miss having a scroll other window as implemented in many other "2 window" interfaces in Emacs (e.g. most mail user agents like rmail, wanderlust, gnus, etc.). I find myself hitting spacebar to scroll down the other window (the one with the org file view) as I would in mail tools and it does nothing. The request would be to have org-agenda-show, bound to ' ', scroll down the other window if already showing the entry. Would this be possible easily? I realise that I could simply type M-C-v but it would be nice to have consistency with other emacs tools. I have tried mapping the spacebar to scroll-other-window in the agenda keymap but this does nothing because the agenda view simply re-shows the org file at the same location!
