[O] [GSOC] Bugpile/iOrg weekly update
Hello List, following a suggestion from Bastien, I will give a weekly update from now on about the state of things in my Google Summer of Code 2012 project "Bugpile/iOrg". Just to remind you whats it all about: ,- | Bugpile is a bugtracker for GNU Emacs Org-mode written in Emacs | Lisp. It will be developed during the Google Summer of Code 2012 | (GSoC) as an example application for iOrg, a new framework for | building dynamic web applications. `- Since I have to deal with two things at the same time (the web framework iOrg and the example application bugpile), I chose the approach to develop bugpile and write the iOrg stuff whenever I feel there should be some framework functionality. I write down everything I do as an iOrg tutorial on Worg (http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/gsoc2012/student-projects/bugpile/i.html) I use a software engineering approach for the development, although this is rather untypical for the emacs world, but it has two big advantages: 1. it guides people step by step through the development process, -- cheers, Thorsten

I don't know this guy, but I don't think he's *trying* to learn Org mode at this point. He seems to be a very capable guy: http://yihui.name/ and is evidently the author of the R package "knitr" for literate programming. I was just struck by the fact that a person of his evident ability would give up on Org mode. I can't say it has been all that easy for me to use Org mode, and I'm sure there are Avogadro's number of things I still don't know about it, but I've never viewed it is being *that* difficult. Probably I've been spoiled by all the help I've gotten from this enormously useful list. There's no real action item for anybody here. I speculate that this guy might just have had more fun writing his own package than in learning somebody else's. But I don't see how it could hurt for the Org-mode community to keep an eye out for usability issues. -- Mike

I imagine doing this by first making up a file of links like > [[xxx.pdf][not done yet]], The script dir2org.zsh (located in the contrib/scripts directory) may be a good starting point for you. It transforms (recursively) a directory and all its files into an Org mode file reproducing the directory tree hierarchy with one headline per file, and it creates automatically the links to the files. Briefly, if your files are located in the directory ~/my-big-database (and its sub-directories), just type: - cd path-to-org-mode-distribution-directory/ - cd contrib/scripts - zsh(if, like me, zsh is not your usual shell, you must call it, eventually install it; at the end, type "exit" to return to your favourite shell) - ./dir2org.zsh ~/my-big-database > orgfile.org And it's done. Your "orgfile.org" contains linked headlines for all your files. You can then start playing with your files with all the Org mode facilities (tags, ordering headlines, adding properties, annotations, todos, etc.).

What I'd really like is > to be able to make up new tags on the fly. Has anyone done > anything like this in org-mode? I don't know what will be the better workflow to achieve this. I think we are all looking for the best workflow to handle our electronic (and non electronic) libraries. I cannot say yet what my workflow is, because I'm currently working on it. FWIW, I /was/ handling my bibliographic resources in a big BibTeX file, adding custom BibTeX fields for my personal needs. I can only give hint whither I am going: - a big biblio.org file with a lot of headlines (one per item), with three custom todo keyword (in a sequence TOREADLATER TOREAD | READ) - TOREAD: for items on which I still have something to do (read, annotate, decide whether it is worth reading or not, or if I should do something with it, etc.). These appear in my custom agenda-view as a block name "Currents readings". - TOREADLATER: idem. But these items do *not* appear in my custom agenda-view. - READ: for items on which I'm done. - each item has a name "Author (year) Title of document", it contains tags as keywords, BibTeX properties (using org-bibtex.el), custom properties (physical location if not electronic, date of insert, etc.). It contains link to file (if file). And it contains my reading notes, quotes, comments, TODO items (if I have to check something, or discuss something with someone, I plan it). All this using sub-headings (for respecting chapters, or the papers structure, or other subdivision for my own needs. As this file is in my org-agenda-files, I can take advantage of all Org mode facilities. I can export the whole database as a BibTeX file using only one command (M-x org-bibtex, thanks to the excellent org-bibtex.el), and can use it in my Org mode files (formerly LaTeX files), using the (new) latex exporter. I can also export a headline with the (new) exporter to share my notes on one item with someone (and easily decide which parts of the notes not to share with a few :noexport: headlines) When I have free time (...) or when (I recommend doing this) I scheduled reading hours in my week, I just call my custom agenda command, showing me only TOREAD items, I'm one space key away from my biblio.org file, and I can just fill my notes while reading. I decided to restrict myself to 5 TOREAD keywords. Once a TOREAD is done, it becomes READ and disappear from my agenda view. Once my TOREAD list becomes empty, I decide which TOREADLATER becomes TOREAD (again with the rule of 5). It helps me not starting dozens of things and never finish them... As for the capture of new items, I'm still working on it. I started to use the command "M-x org-bibtex-create" for new items, and then arrange manually my other needs, but I'm now in the process of creating custom org-capture templates to better achieve my needs. I would happily share a less confused state of my workflow when I'll be more happy with it. Sorry for being such OT. > > Victor > > Good luck with your collection of papers, Cheers, François

I know it should work, but is there any particular reason you need to
use #+begin_equation .. #+end_equation ? The following seems to work for
me well.
#+begin_latex
\begin{equation}
\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi\sigma^2}}e^{ -\frac{(x-\mu)^2}{2\sigma^2} }
\end{equation}
#+end_latex
If you want fontlocking you can even use
#+begin_src latex :eval yes
\begin{equation}
\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi\sigma^2}}e^{ -\frac{(x-\mu)^2}{2\sigma^2} }
\end{equation}
#+end_src

You just use
\begin{equation}
\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi\sigma^2}}e^{ -\frac{(x-\mu)^2}{2\sigma^2} }
\end{equation}

Re: [O] non-existent agenda file ~/file.txt. [R]emove from list or [A]bort?
Hi, i have the same problem. It appears that `org-map-entries' fails if the file does not yet exist. A solution could be to add to `dmj/org-remove-redundant-tags' a `file-exists-p' condition but you will have to save twice to clean the file; another is to patch `org-map-entries' that should succeed even if the file does not exist...

[O] Exporting to PDF using Windows Emacs and Cygwin TexLive
Hi, I am trying to use Cygwin's TexLive for PDF generation. The problem is that it does not seem to understand Windows paths: This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.3-1.40.12 (TeX Live 2011/Cygwin) \write18 enabled. entering extended mode ! I can't find file `c:/alex/prj/test.tex'. Is it possible to convert the path to the generated tex file to cygwin format (via cygpath, etc or otherwise) before giving it to pdftex? Unfortunately I can not use "matching" combinations of the applications (i.e. cygwin emacs + texlive or windows emacs + say, miktex) where, I know, the export would work seamlessly. Thanks, Alex
Re: [O] [GSoC] org-merge-driver weekly update
Another area that would be nice to address is taking advantage of the information in date-trees so assist with merging. This is similar to the logic around keeping headlines in order. With date trees there is a date and sometimes time tag to help. In addition to the occurrence order, there is also an ordering constraint on date trees that can be used to determine the proper delta. You can use the date and time information in the headlines to determine the proper sequencing. For example, the delta/merger for two files of the form: File 1: * Year ** Year-Month *** Year-Month-Day Y-M-D-Time1 stuff1 ... Y-M-D-Time2 stuff2 ... Y-M-D-Time4 stuff4 ... Y-M-D-Time5 stuff5 ... Y-M-D-Time9 stuff9 ... File 2: * Year ** Year-Month *** Year-Month-Day Y-M-D-Time1 stuff1 ... Y-M-D-Time2 stuff2 ... Y-M-D-Time3 stuff3 ... Y-M-D-Time6 stuff6 ... Y-M-D-Time7 stuff7 ... Should be: * Year ** Year-Month *** Year-Month-Day Y-M-D-Time1 stuff1 ... Y-M-D-Time2 stuff2 ... Y-M-D-Time3 stuff3 ... Y-M-D-Time4 stuff4 ... Y-M-D-Time5 stuff5 ... Y-M-D-Time6 stuff6 ... Y-M-D-Time7 stuff7 ... Y-M-D-Time9 stuff9 ... This time aware merge logic will apply similarly to all levels of the date tree. Date trees are recognizable by the combination of headlines in this format. A date tree can occur anywhere in an org file, but it will begin with a level one headline of the form "* ", etc. R Horn rjh...@alum.mit.edu

org-map-entries calls org-prepare-agenda-buffers like this:
(org-prepare-agenda-buffers
(list (buffer-file-name (current-buffer
In turn, this calls org-check-agenda-file() and if the current buffer
has not been written out yet, this pops the question.
So there is a chicken-and-egg problem here, because you added the
function to the before-save hook. Not sure how to resolve it though.

I've opted for the solution proposed by Sylvain (test that the file exists):
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-hook 'before-save-hook
'(lambda ()
(when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
(org-align-all-tags)
(org-update-all-dblocks)
(org-table-iterate-buffer-tables)
(when (file-exists-p (buffer-file-name (current-buffer)))
(my/org-remove-redundant-tags))
)))
#+end_src
Redundant tags is something I won't do as soon as I create a file for the
first time. Hence, I consider this as really "good enough", even if not
perfect.
Thanks for your help!
Best regards,

It appears the reason for this is rather the use of cl macros in the dispatcher code. Depending on where you require org-export and what is already byte-compiled, things start to explode.

[O] Bug: org-capture Does not take user to any new buffer
To duplicate:
1) Run org-capture with C-c c
2) User is Promoted with the two templates expected
(copied the templates from the org-mode site)
3) Enter j for journal
4) Expect switch to new buffer
5) No switch occurs
Note that journal.org is open, but I need to switch to it
I expected EMACS to switch to a new buffer after choosing
the template.
Running GNU EMACS 23.3 on Win7

Second part shouldn't be that hard. ---( Approach 1: Clocking )--- Link to how to clock: - http://orgmode.org/manual/Clocking-work-time.html What I might do: - Create headline for current month - Create headline with current date - Clock in when you get to work - Clock out when you leave work * June ** [2012-06-04 Mon] (C-c ! then return to create that time stamp) - Now C-c C-x C-i to clock in on that headline - When you leave, C-c C-x C-o clocks out - If you're at home, do `C-c C-c home` to tag the headline with the tag :home: - If you're late, do `C-c C-c late` to add the :late: tag At the end of the month, you can create a clock table to view your time: - http://orgmode.org/manual/The-clock-table.html#The-clock-table You can also get the data out and simply figure out a criteria for late/on-time with some other program. The clock table should be able to tally your time for the month and you can count the number of :home: tags perhaps. I've asked on the list for grouping clock tables by tag and there was some response: - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-05/msg00219.html --- (Approach 2: Date/time timestamps )--- You could just add date/time timestamps - Add headline for month - Add headline for day like above with C-c ! - Add time stamp for in with C-u C-c ! - Add time stamp out with C-u C-c ! * June ** [2012-06-04 Mon] [2012-06-04 Mon 21:01] [2012-06-04 Mon 21:02] The tricky part for both comes with your second part, automating the parsing of data. I was trying to get at something similar with my quantified self request recently: - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-04/msg01344.html Note my #4. I don't know of great ways to parse headlines and get out timestamps into some sort of csv or data table for external analysis. This would be fantastic. The above should be quite usable for you, though. You can get a lot from the clock table and shouldn't have a horrible time figuring out how to count late/home/office tags if you use them.

Re: [O] Bug: org-capture Does not take user to any new buffer

I haven't tried specifically to duplicate your setup but org-capture
seems to work fine here.

So what happens instead? If I start capture, I get another window where
I'm presented with an "*Org Select*" buffer that offers me the available
choices and when I select one of those, I get a "CAPTURE-foo.org" buffer
for some value of "foo". This is actually an indirect buffer and the
text should be inserted into the target location already, so you can
look at ~/org/journal.org (or whatever) and see that it contains the
partial entry just started. See the description of org-capture: C-h f
org-capture RET.
If I were you, I'd probably use edebug to step through the org-capture
function (and I'd forget about byte compiling anything until whatever
problem you have is identified and solved).
HTH,
Nick
