[Orgmode] category keyword

2009-05-06 Thread eraldo
Is there a way to have a keyword for settings category?In other words... having a todo-keyword:** CATEGORY headlineinstead of writing:** headline#+CATEGORY: headlineinto the description textI could use keyword or tag inheritance + sorting ... both of which is not an option for me since I already use those for a special purpose in a non-inheritance fashion.Is there a way to have the prefix of my agenda sort by using that (CATEGORY) keyword?That would be really helpful for me...Thank you guys... I love org!Eraldo

[Orgmode] add a whole directory as one item to refile targets

2009-10-04 Thread Eraldo Helal
If I do "C-c C-w" (refile), I get the following:

NOW:
 Click  on a completion to select it.
 In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.

 Possible completions are:
 done.org/  eraldo.org/ inbox.org/

WANTED:
 Possible completions are:

In other words...
I would like to have a whole directory as one item listed in my refile targets.

Another possibility would be to be able to refile to any other place
apart from the defined ones via prefix or shortcut.

[Orgmode] agenda prefix - fixed/max width

2009-10-05 Thread Eraldo Helal
I have set org-agenda-prefix-format to: (org-agenda-prefix-format " %-8:c ")
making the agenda look like so:

 home:[ ] brainstorm redesign home
 evening school: [ ] chose DE spec.
 evening school: [ ] ask Lea re: spec topics
 evening school: [ ] brainstorm Learners Group
 eraldo:  [ ] brainstorm 4 perspectives

If I change it to " %8:c " I get that:

home: [ ] brainstorm redesign home
 evening school: [ ] chose DE spec.
 evening school: [ ] ask Lea re: spec topics
 evening school: [ ] brainstorm Learners Group
  eraldo: [ ] brainstorm 4 perspectives

but what I want is this:  ;; limiting prefix to 7 characters

 home:[ ] brainstorm redesign home
 evening: [ ] chose DE spec.
 evening: [ ] ask Lea re: spec topics
 evening: [ ] brainstorm Learners Group
 eraldo:  [ ] brainstorm 4 perspectives

In other words: having a fixed prefix length resulting in showing only
the set amount of characters.
Why? Because it lines up the check boxes "[ ]" which is handy and
looks nice for printing.
I have some long category names / file names ... making the prefix
verrry long no matter what setting I use at the moment. :(

Any ideas how to fix that?
Would be awesome if someone could help me get there. =]

[Orgmode] newline in tag menu not working after groupend

2009-10-10 Thread Eraldo Helal
with the following code set in my .emacs file:

(setq org-tag-alist '((:startgroup . nil)
  ("anywhere" . ?a) ("call" . ?c) ("internet" .
?i) ("errand" . ?e) ("home" . ?h) ("school" . ?s)
  (:endgroup . nil)
  (:newline)
  (:newline)
  ("EraldoHelal") ("OtherPerson")
 )

There is no newline.
It seems to me as if it does not work after "(:endgroup . nil)" if I
do it like this instead:

(setq org-tag-alist '((:startgroup . nil)
  ("anywhere" . ?a) ("call" . ?c) ("internet" .
?i) ("errand" . ?e) ("home" . ?h) ("school" . ?s)
  (:endgroup . nil)
  ("EraldoHelal") (:newline) (:newline) ("OtherPerson")
 )

I do get a newline... however that is not the place I want it to be.

Re: [Orgmode] add a whole directory as one item to refile targets

2009-10-10 Thread Eraldo Helal
| Carsten: "Please try again."
> Sure :)   ;;sorry about that I happen to have problems explaining...


If I am on a headline in an org-mode buffer and do "C-c C-w" (refile) on it...
...and then press TAB twice. I get a completion list buffer that pops
up and looks somthing like this:

 Possible completions are:
 done.org/eraldo.org/inbox.org/

>> showing some files as possible refile targets.

What I would like to have is this:

 Possible completions are:
 done.org/eraldo.org/inbox.org/Reference/

>> showing the same refile targets plus a directory of my choice!


In the meantime I have made some experiments and I could get my
directory(name) listed there...
... however that is not of any use since it does not treat it as a
directory nor as a file ;; very strange stuff ^^

What is the way to go in order to move a headline to a location that
is not listed as a refile target?

>> until now what I did is the following:
open a new emacs buffer and open the desired file in there or create a
new one. ;; C-x C-f
go back to the other buffer. ;; C-x o  //  C-c b  //  C-x b  //  Alt+TAB
fold up the headline. ;; TAB  //  TAB TAB
cut the headline ;; C-k
change buffer again. ;;  C-x o  //  C-c b  //  C-x b  //  Alt+TAB
paste the headline ;; C-y

If there is a better / easier way I would be glad to know :)

[Orgmode] Re: add a whole directory as one item to refile targets

2009-10-12 Thread Eraldo Helal
> What is Reference/ supposed to be in this case -- a directory?  Refiling
> only works to headings (or top level headings) in files in org-mode IIRC.
Yes it is supposed to be a directory...

I have org files in many directorys... about like so:
 reference/emacs/emacs.org
 reference/eros/eros.org
 reference/Avalon/Avalon.org
 reference/Gimp/Gimp.org
 reference/office/office.org
 reference/home/home.org
 reference/poems/poems.org
...

What would be a smart way to get a headline from the file inbox.org
named "* Erich Fried poems" to poems.org?
Considering that poems.org is not part of the agenda nor a refile target.

What I am doing until now is:
 folding the headline (tab)
 cutting the headline (C-k)
 making a split screen (C-x 2)
 changing buffer (C-x o)
 opening poems.org (C-x C-f "reference/poems/poems.org")
 pasting headline (C-y)
 changing buffer (C-x o)
 removing split view (C-x 1)

Poems.org is not part of the agenda because it is reference material
and not an active file.
It is also not a refile target because I would have to make every .org
file in all subdirectories a refile target and sometimes the
appropriate file does not yet exist, in which case I need to create
it.

Any ideas?
Do I need to further try to make clear what I mean?

"directory-files" only outputs directories but no .org files
therefore with the pattern "*.org" as a filter ... nothing is returned!

But I like the idea a lot!
Should "directory-files" list all files inside a directory?

[Orgmode] all org files from directory as refile targets (recursive)

2009-10-17 Thread Eraldo Helal
I want to have all org files inside my directory "~/reference/" to be

~/reference/a/a.org
~/reference/b/b.org
~/reference/c/c.org
~/reference/c/c.ods
~/reference/d/d.org

...

I want all files ending in ".org" located somewhere inside (recursive)

in the example it would be the files: "a.org" "b.org" "c.org" and "d.org"

I tried:
(find-lisp-find-files "~/reference/" "\.org$")
but I got the following error:
(error "Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size")

How (else) can I move a headline to a file that is not part of my agenda?

[Orgmode] use todo-keyword to assign category

2009-10-18 Thread Eraldo Helal
ISSUE:

I have a keyword "CATEGORY" which I use on headlines to make me aware
that they define a category for everything below them.

example:
file: school.org
* CATEGORY English
#+CATEGORY: English
** PROJECT presentation "org-mode"
*** TODO call Tom: beamer
*** TODO search pictures
** TODO homework p. 42
* CATEGORY Math
#+CATEGORY: Math
** TODO homework sheet Nr. 4
...

Is it possible to let emacs know that every headline with the
"CATEGORY" todo-keyword should be used as a category?
> If not... I think it would be a great feature to add!

ADVANTAGES:

this would bring the following advantages:
- I would not have to add "#+CATEGORY:" nor type the same words as the
headline after it
- I could define a category by using my todo-keyword menu. with
shortcuts and fast selection!
- I could use the agenda view to get a list of all categories defined
in that way... and be able to filter them!

WORKAROUND:

Until then I have to add "#+CATEGORY: " on
every such headline and be aware that changing the headline does not
change the category wording.

> PROBLEM: more work, redundant

or

use the "CATEGORY" todo-keyword without "#+CATEGORY"
> this however would result in the following Agenda buffer for our example:
school: TODO call Tom: beamer
school: TODO search pictures
school: TODO homework p. 42
school: TODO homework sheet Nr. 4

> PROBLEM: agenda buffer unclear (school is not precise enough)


Any ideas on how to get there or feedback on the idea?

[Orgmode] agenda files list

2009-10-19 Thread Eraldo Helal
I would like to have a list of all agenda files
where each item links to its file.
This would be great for doing my weekly review since in my system all
agenda files need to be viewed weekly.
It could also be added to the agenda menu (C-c a) as an option.

Workaround:
Because I don't know how to get a nice looking list of all my agenda files...
shabble came up with some code which I modified and the result is below:

;; list all agenda-files (linking to them) in a new buffer
(defun list-agenda-files()
  "Create a list of all org-agenda files as org-mode links"
  (interactive)
  (let ((list-buf (get-buffer-create "*org-agenda-files*")))
(with-current-buffer list-buf
  (erase-buffer)
  (insert "Agenda Files:\n")
  (dolist (file org-agenda-files)
(let
((desc (first (split-string (file-name-nondirectory file) 
"\\.org$"
(insert (concat "- [[" file "][" desc "]]\n"))
)
  )
  (org-mode)
)
(switch-to-buffer list-buf))

If anyone else has use for this please give some feedback.
If someone could help us make this code more mature... please do the same.

This is what I am doing now as a workaround.
I know that inside latex it does not make sence...
but afaik one of the ideas behind org is that you can write plain text
and the exporter does the markup.
The "\n:t" option should tell the latex exporter to put a "\\" at the
end of each linebreak.
At least that is what I would wish. :)

First of all I want to thank all of you (again) for this great mailing-list.
I am a great fan of the idea of writing an org file and being able to
export it to differnt formats as desired. (ASCII, html, pdf, etc)
In my case the absence of consistent newlines (as present in html
export) was not that much of a problem because the document
(scientific article on complex numbers) does not need to be exported
to html at all... so I just added "\\" to the end of every line.
Nontheless I took notice of the problem and wanted to get and give
some feedback.

[Orgmode] footnote: org >> latex

2009-12-16 Thread Eraldo Helal
Org-mode source file:

...
>[fn:OSD] OSD: "open source definition"


Resulting PDF:
> • OSD¹
> • OSD$^1$

What I want is to be able to have multiple footnotes leading to the
same reference.
I tried to do footnotes with different syntaxes but I could not manage
to get it.

Example:
Open source is defined by the OSD¹.
The OSD¹ definition is written in the form of guidelines.
The GPL² plays an important role talking about licensing.


¹ OSD: "open source definition"
² GPL: "General Public License"

Am I using the wrong syntax or is it a bug?
Any idea how to fix it?

[Orgmode] stuck todos agenda view

2010-03-20 Thread Eraldo Helal
I want to make an agenda view for todos older than 7 days sorted by
oldest date first.

My TODOs have a timestamp inside the logbook which shows when they got
the TODO status.

How can I get an Agenda view, showing only TODOs with the most recent

And then if possible sorting them so that the oldest todo is shown fist.

Any ideas how such a view could be configured/coded?
Are there options already present with which I can get such a view?

[Orgmode] changing Gnus paths: 'News' and 'Mail'

2010-04-30 Thread Eraldo Helal
Greetings Orgmoders

Problem description:

I want to get rid of the 'News' and 'Mail' directories in my home and
put them somewhere else instead:
'~/News' => '~/mypath/News'
'~/Mail' => '~/mypath/Mail'

Question: Which variables do I have to change so that gnus won't have
troubles with moving those directories?

E.g.: If I change 'gnus-home-directory' from '~/' to '~/mypath/', will
gnus-directory change to '~/mypath/News' or will it still be '~/News'?
Making it necessary for me to change it as well. (and maybe others too?)

[Orgmode] nicely managing multiple calendars in the agenda

2010-05-01 Thread Eraldo Helal
I have switched to using org files as 'calendars'. (events.org, university.org, 
etc)
I am using the agenda to view them.

However I am still having some troubles with 2 things:
1. different colors for different calendars (e.g. entries from events.org in 
orange)
2. toggling the visibility of individual calendars

=> 1
Would it be possible to use different faces for different files?
Or maybe even different faces for different categories?
, What I have:
|[blue ] Saturday1 May 2010
|[black]   events:  Adam's party
|[black]   events:  Magic show
|[black]   university:  10:15-12:00 Management test
`
, What I want:
|[blue  ] Saturday1 May 2010
|[orange]   events:  Adam's party
|[orange]   events:  Adam's party
|[purple]   university:  10:15-12:00 Management test
`

=> 2
I do know that I can restrict the agenda to a single file,
but how can I toggle the visibility of a single file? (e.g. exclude one 
file)
Plus... Once I have toggled one file invisible...
I would need some kind of overview of which files(calendars) are hidden and 
which ones are still active.

One possible workaround would be using file-tags and filtering by them.
While I do like the idea, it still does not solve the issue of knowing
which files(calendars) are active and which ones are hidden at the moment.
Plus I would be even happier if we could find a solution without using tags.

A menu (just like the todo-kwd menu ) would be ideal as an interface 
for toggling calendars
and getting an overview of the currently displayed ones.

You are right, setting 'gnus-home-directory' alone is sufficient
(theoretically).
However, that alone triggered recreation of Mail ind News directories in
my home.
The solution for me was to move .newsrc and .newsrc-dribble to

[Orgmode] huge font in column view

2010-05-07 Thread Eraldo Helal
When I press 'C-c C-x C-c' on a headline in org-mode, I get into column view as 
expected, however the font is huuuge!
I remember seeing the same sized font when starting emacs without my config 
file.
I have set the font size for this very reason... but column mode seems to 
ignore it

According to what I read, column view gets the font size from the 'default 
font'.
Until now I thought I had changed the default font with '(set-face-attribute 
'default nil :height 80)'.
How else can I set the default font size? Or is the problem elsewhere?

Yes it does.

I have set '(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 80)'
in my .emacs because I thought that changes the default font size (on
which the others are based on).

If that does not change it, how else can I change the default font size

[Orgmode] QUESTION how to revert repeating sub-tasks?

2010-05-17 Thread Eraldo Helal
link: how to revert repeating sub-tasks? http://openpaste.org/en/21646/

I have a repeating tasks that looks like this:
,
| * TODO daily review
|   SCHEDULED: <2010-01-01 .+1d>
|   :LOGBOOK:...
|   :PROPERTIES:...
| ** TODO task A...
| ** TODO task B...
`

Problem:
After I have marked the sub-tasks and main task (in that order) done,
but the sub-tasks remain in 'DONE' state.

Longer problem description:
I have blocking enables, so I can only mark the main repeating task 'DONE'
after all the sub-tasks are 'DONE' as well.
The main repeating task (daily review) works great.
It reverts to 'TODO' with the new scheduled date (day after today)
and leaves a note in the 'LOGBOOK'.
However the sub-tasks remain in the 'DONE' state
instead of reverting to 'TODO' as well.

Example: (based on example above with current date being 2010-05-17)
- switched all sub-tasks to DONE
- switched the main task to DONE
current output:
,
| * TODO daily review
|   SCHEDULED: <2010-05-18 .+1d >
|   :LOGBOOK:...
|   :PROPERTIES:...
| ** DONE task A...
| ** DONE task B...
`

desired output:
,
| * TODO daily review
|   SCHEDULED: <2010-05-18 .+1d >
|   :LOGBOOK:...
|   :PROPERTIES:...
| ** TODO task A...
| ** TODO task B...
`

I would prefer 'TODO's instead of checkboxed if possible.
Any ideas how to get there?

Too bad.
I would prefer 'TODO's over checkboxes because that enables me to just
set one of them (sub-tasks) to another state
(e.g. STARTED/WAITING/ACTION/etc).
This helps to make them show up in the appropriate list... until all of
them are DONE.
In which case I could set the main task to DONE thus resetting the
sub-tasks to TODO.

I hope you get the idea ^^.
In any way, thank you for the idea.

For me, changing all 'DONE's to 'TODO's for all sub-tasks would be enough.

 Maybe changing deadline warning days to 0 and adding a custom agenda

This is no biggie since I can toggle deadlines on/off with "!" in the

[Orgmode] non-text file handling method / stucture

2009-03-13 Thread Eraldo Helal
Salve!


I am just starting to use Emacs-Org-Mode and planning to use it for my GTD
system.
However I am not sure what files (file structure) to use.

Until now, I made a directory for each project.
In each project directory I have a text file called "plan".
This is where I did my thinking and planing until now... but is is very
limited and lacks the ability to get an overview/idea of the whole project.
I used this structure because I knew where everything was. (.pdf and other
files as well as text)

Now that I discovered Org-Mode, I am thinking about the following methods:

1) Replacing the "plan" files in the project directorys with "plan.org"
files. Still having one directory per project.

2) Having one "projects.org" file and a directory called "documents" (or
something similar) where all the non-text-documents go. The
projects.orgfile then links to the appropreate documents. Seperate
higher goals file.
- document handling can get confusing...
- deleting / moving of documents could result in broken links
- backing up / archiving done projects (AND their documents [maybe])

3) Having one "gtd.org" file and having a directory only for the projects
for which I have non-text documents. And linking to thouse directories in
the general "gtd.org" file.
- my favourite option until now
- unsure how to handle the creation/deletion of directories and the links
that go along...
- an automated option would be ideal!
- e.g. a "script" or something similar that makes sure that the project
names (headlines with a :PROJECT: tag) at the same time link to that project
if a directory exists in my "projects" directory.

Please let me know what you think... any idea is welcome... comments on my
ideas / other methods / mistures / etc

[Orgmode] Handling org-file agenda dependenncies?

2009-03-26 Thread Eraldo Helal
I have projects with non-text files.
Many of them having sub-,subsub-projects etc. (nested)
Therefore I made directories for them using the project name. ///etc
Each having it's own <(sub-)project name>.org file in it.

My question:

How can I add|remove a whole project from the agenda?

e.g. If I remove project1.org file from the agenda...
 /project1/subprojectX.org would still be in there!

Or is there a way to assign and then set a group of org.files to
inactive(=remove from agenda)?

Any other suggestions|methods for solving this problem?

That would still mean removing every org-file in the tree manually when wanting
to make a project "inactive".

The questions here is... How could one define it?

I thought of a macro that I could use while in an emacs buffer.
The macro should search through the attachment directory (saved as a property)
of the headline and remove from the agenda all the *.org files that it finds.

Comments? Suggestions?

[Orgmode] remember template indentation

2009-03-28 Thread Eraldo Helal
If the :LOGBOOK: property gets created via TODO state change...

; log state changes into a drawer (introduced in Orgmode 6.23)
(setq org-log-into-drawer "LOGBOOK")

> the :LOGBOOK: item is indented (has as many spaces to the left as the
headline) and gets moved(left right) together with the headline if I use
M-.

If I create it with my remember template however...

  ("inbox" ?i "* %^{topic}%i\n:LOGBOOK:\n- Created: %U from
%a\n:END:\n%?" "inbox.org" "stuff")

then it is all the way in the left margin (first char)
and it does not move when the headline does (promote|demote)

Any idea how I can get my remember template to make the LOGBOOK and enter
the creation date there while keeping the default behavior?

[Orgmode] newline before headline

2009-03-28 Thread Eraldo Helal
I just found out that there is a newline before each headline in the recent
version of org-mode (6.24).

Is there a post explaining why this change was made?

I have troubles with that, for example:

when adding a new headline while looking at the overview...
the newline does not get made...
and therefore all the following will not have it until one changes the
behavior by making one before creating a new one again.

Re: [Orgmode] remember template indentation

2009-03-28 Thread Eraldo Helal
The problem is that the LOGBOOK item does not move with the headline...

example:

BEFORE
** 
  :LOGBOOK:
  - Created  from 
  :END:


AFTER
 
  :LOGBOOK:
  - Created  from 
  :END:


It does when created by changing to state
But I did also find out that this is a general problem! (not remember only)

It works like this:
If there is a description text, it does not move with the headline.
If there is no description text, it does move along with the headline.

Any suggestions how to solve this?

PS: Thank you for your reply.

[Orgmode] todo state trigger tag options

2009-03-28 Thread Eraldo Helal
Similar to the variable: org-todo-state-tags-triggers // triggers 
on|off when  gets active...

Is there also something that triggers my tag menu when a  gets
active.

Example: When NEXT (todo state) gets active ...I get prompted for one of my
context tags (radio group menu: @home(h), @errands(e), etc).

It's not a matter of speed... but rather a way to make sure I never forget
to give my next actions a context as well!

Hi Kostya!

I am still pretty new to emacs and org-mode, but from what I have read until
now...
Could you use the tag hook to automatically assign the :tech: tag along with
:firefox: and|or :emacs: etc...
This is still not exactly what you wished afaics, but it may make things a
little more convenient.

Re: [Orgmode] Bug if `org-refile-use-outline-path' is set to 'file

2009-04-01 Thread Eraldo Helal
Hi Tassilo!

I am having the same problem.
I understood the manual it in the same way you did.

I also found out, that if I enter file as the value for that variable...
and then check again what is assigned to it... it shows the path to my
.emacs file!
In other words... it interpretes file as the file I am in when customizing,
instead of the word file.
If I set it to "file" => I get the same as if set to "t" ...I think that is
the same problem you have.

Greetings,

[Orgmode] refile headline with inherited tags

2009-04-04 Thread Eraldo Helal
Today I refiled a headline that was part of a tree using inherited tags:

* topic1   :tag1:
** headline1
** headline2
* topic2

If I refile headline1 to another file... the tag "tag1" is not on it
anymore...

I am not sure if the best way to handle such cases is to add the tag by hand
and then refile it
... or if it could also be an option to apply all inherited tags to it while
refiling.

[Orgmode] export to html: timestamp-kwd

2009-04-13 Thread Eraldo Helal
Salve Orgers!


When exporting to html my auto-timestamp looks like this:

> CLOSED:   class="timestamp">2009-04-14 Tue 00:52
>
> I would rather like to have it like this:

CLOSED: 2009-04-14
Tue 00:52

In words: I would like timestamp keyword html span to include the timestamp.

Reason: This would enable me to move the whole thing to the right side of
the headline (float: right).

Comments on this idea are welcome :)

[Orgmode] Agenda headlines match tag and todo keyword.

2009-04-22 Thread Eraldo Helal
How do I get only the headlines that match the *tag* "test" *and* the *
todo-keyword* "ACTION" ?

I read through the manual and this site "
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-custom-agenda-commands.php"; but
did not find it.

Thank's,

[Orgmode] Blocked Agenda without newlines but with separator

I tried that... but it gives me a fixed amount of "=" signs  // compared to
the separator

Maybe the content of the variable org-agenda-compact-blocks could have an
additional value: ( nil | t | nonewline )
or a separate variable org-agenda-compact-blocks-newline ( t | nil )

Could that be an option?

Thank you for the answer though!

So, I guess htmlize.el is not part of org-mode.
Is there a way of keeping uptodate with this file?
Will it survive when I do my git pull, etc?

Thank you Nick for helping me troubleshoot!
Are you using the upstream org-mode or the one that comes with your
emacs? In particular, what version?[1] Org-mode version 6.26trans And how do you load org-mode from
your .emacs (including any settings of load-path)? ; Orgmode; http://orgmode.org; using orgmode-dev requires org-install(setq load-path (cons "~/system/elisp/org-mode/lisp" load-path))(add-to-list 'load-path "~/system/elisp/org-mode/contrib/lisp")(require 'org-install)(require 'org)

Also, can you do C-h f org-export-as-ascii  and include the output
in your reply?org-export-as-ascii is an interactive autoloaded Lisp function in`org-exp.el'.(org-export-as-ascii arg)Export the outline as a pretty ASCII file.If there is an active region, export only the region.The prefix arg specifies how many levels of the outline should becomeunderlined headlines.  The default is 3. 

Thanks,
Nick

[1] C-u M-x org-version  will insert the version string into the
    buffer, so you can easily annotate any email you send with the
    version. It is *always* a good idea to include the org-version with
    any questions/problems you send to the list, as well as the
    corresponding emacs version: C-u M-x emacs-version .

org-export-as-ascii is an interactive autoloaded Lisp function in
`org-exp.el'.

(org-export-as-ascii arg)

Export the outline as a pretty ASCII file.
If there is an active region, export only the region.
The prefix arg specifies how many levels of the outline should become
underlined headlines.  The default is 3.

the file "/etc/emacs/site-start.el" is empty... there are only comments. oO

the ascii export from org works if starting emacs with "--no-site-file", and
does not if this is missing.

However, if you want to try without it, you can rename it.  If that

If that's where the problem is, the principal of dissection should

** headline5

If this is not possible:

Is there already a *convenient* way to *enter the category* property?

The idea is simple: I would like to meet up with other org-users!
As I did not find any platform to accomplish the search,... I would like to
request it as a feature.
And at the same time scan the mailing list for candidates. :)

I live in Linz (Austria)
...and would be willing to travel (if necessary)

The feature could be implemented by searchable user-profiles in the work for
instance.
Or If there is already a way to find local (or closest possible)
