[Orgmode] Creating an Ubuntu Package for org.

2008-08-25 Thread Ian Barton
Whilst it's pretty easy to install org from source, I thought it might
be helpful to make an Ubuntu package. Making a package may encourage
more people to try org as it overcomes some hurdles in installation.
Also you should automatically get up to date versions.

I know that someone has made packages available before, but they don't
seem to be actively maintained. Rather than just create my own personal
packages, I thought it might be worthwhile to use Launchpad and try to
get the package accepted into the Ubuntu package collection.

I know that Carsten is away at the moment and I wouldn't want to do
anything without his agreement.

Comments please!

Ian.

Ubuntu uses the debian emacs packages distribution system. So if you
want an ubuntu package, you probably want to do the debian package at
first, and let the ubuntu packagers do their work for next release.

That said, org-mode has been bundled with GNUEmacs since 22 IIRC, and
it is up-to-date in the next release of emacs, version 23.

Also, I'm a strong advocate of a GNUEmacs packages management system,
because emacs lisp packages are by nature portable across systems by
themselves. Some work has been started by Tom Tromey (ELPA), but RMS
did not welcome very warmly last year the proposal to bundle it into
emacs and push it forward as the best mean to distribute emacs
packages. We hope to come to an agreement for emacs 24.

 I would very much like to try it.

 Thank you,

Here is the script:

SafeItem.SaveAs (P:\ivan\tmp\bla.msg)
Shell (p:/perl58/bin/wperl.EXE p:/ivan/tmp/msgconvert.pl --mbox 
p:/ivan/tmp/mbox P:/ivan/tmp/bla.msg)
End Sub

You will need to install msgconvert on windows and redemption for Outlook.

You will also need to self certify your macro in outlook.

Signing your own macros with SelfCert.exe:
http://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/selfcert.htm

Locating SelfCert.exe

By default you can find Selfcert.exe in the following location;
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office version number If it is
not there run Office setup and choose a custom installation and
then advanced customization. Expand the Office Shared Features
Section and select Digital Certificate for VBA Projects to run
from your computer. For Office 2000 you can find this under the
Office Tools section.

Simply run SelfCert.exe. It will prompt you to name the
certificate.  I use my username because that is most convenient to
me but you can also give it the name of your company or whatever
you want.

Create Digital Certificate with SelfCert.exe
As explained in the dialog a selfcert is for personal use only

Back in the VBA Editor (ALT+F11) where you created the macro
choose Tools- Digital Signature. You’ll see that the current VBA
project isn’t signed. Press the Choose… button and you’ll get a
screen to select a certificate. Now you can choose the certificate
you just created.

Hope this helps,

[Orgmode] org mode message: Specified time is not representable

2008-08-25 Thread bostjanv
Hello,
Am using Emacs under Windows XP (see below) and org mode version 6.05b.

I get the message in the subject when I click on a time stamp which seems 
perfectly OK. As a test I took the following .org file

** TODO 1973-07-28 Sat +1y 1
** TODO 1908-07-06 Mon +1y 2 *

** TODO 2001-05-19 Sat +1y 15

a right mouse click on a day stamp should produce a day agenda.
However, all timestamps on lines ending with an asterisk produce
the stated message. The Linux version of Emacs does not exhibit 
this behavior.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: HTML export problems

2008-08-25 Thread Jesse Alama
I'm on your side: I agree that it's a bug either in org-mode or the
XHTML 1.0 Transitional specification (if not both).  I imagine it's
straightforward to fix the problem.  I mentioned standards because I
came across this problem in another context (not related to org-mode) .
I was working with some web pages that were valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional
documents, but transformation of them to another format proved to be
problematic for the same reason that you mention.

David O'Toole [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 Specification conformance is beside the point, it is still a bug. We are
 unable to properly style this first paragraph because it has no P tag,

 Perhaps surprisingly, that is valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional:

[Orgmode] Patch for Plain Text Export

2008-08-25 Thread Thomas Fuchs

Hi,

I detected, that using org-store-agenda-views to export my views
to *.txt in plain text results in files growing and growing because
the new views are appended.

In my understanding this is not the intended behavior. Every new
export should replace the previous one.

I attached a very simple patch to correct this.


Yours sincerly

Reviving an old topic, it just hit me!

The only time I have to worry about converting TZ is when I'm entering
a date  time into the calendar.

Would it be possible for the calendar / date prompt to convert from
one TZ to the current?

ie: Wed 09:00 EST would automatically convert to Wed 08:00 (implied
CST, where I am).

Perhaps this is an easier fix.

Thanks.

Debian already has a separate org-mode package, currently up to date at

What seems to work is to first set aside some lines for your artistic

turning on artist-mode. Then, when you have finished, turn off
artist-mode and do C-x n w (widen).

This is a bit of a pain to remember the steps, but it does protect the

[Orgmode] org-plot (generating graphs from org-mode)

2008-08-25 Thread Eric Schulte
Hi,

org-plot enables generation of graphs from data stored in org tables
(maybe eventually elsewhere in org files).

It is available on github at
http://github.com/eschulte/org-plot/tree/master or with

  git clone git://github.com/eschulte/org-plot.git

Included with org-plot.el is an example.org file which should quickly
show off it's features, options and abilities.

While this is not completed, it is functional, and I figure better to
get early feedback then wait until it's all polished.  Please give it
a look and let me know what you think.

Thanks -- Eric
