[Orgmode] POLL: the 40 variables project
Hi, yesterday I did this command in my org-mode git repo: grep defcustom lisp/*el |wc -l and got 378 as an answer. 378 user-customizable variables, no kidding. However, I bet that only about 10% of these are really used by more that one user :-). So when a new users starts digging into Org-mode, they simply must be confused by the amount of variables that can be set. So here is the idea: I would like to find out which variables users actually customize. This could be the basis for a great article on Worg, describing just these selected variables. In addition, I could make a special customization group which only contains those variables (Emacs allows to put a variable into several groups). It would be awesome to have, and a much easier start into customizing Org. So here is my question to all of you. Could you, in reply to this message, list all the Org-related variables that you have customized, along with the values you used? If you want to do more, I'd also love to see comments on - why you set the variable like this - if you feel that the default value of that variable should be different - Any other comments you might what to give. Of course, if there is a volunteer who would like to organize this info into a Worg page, I would even be more happy ...

You make this sound as if it was a bad thing... ;)

customizing Org.
Phew! For a second I thought you would jump on the 'gnome' train of
thought that too much configuration is bad, mmkay? I feared that
you'd intend to get rid of those customisation variables.
I'd hate to see that happen to any software project.
I don't care what any usability experts say (self-proclaimed or not),
I want to be able to change those settings. I tend to heavily
customise just about every software that I use.
However organising the most-often used variables seems like a good
idea. It might also make a lot of sense to identify the values that
people most often use to arrive at a more sensible set of defaults.
So here is my question to all of you. Could you, in reply to this
message, list all the Org-related variables that you have customized,
along with the values you used?

[Orgmode] Broken plain list check boxes?
Hi Carsten Just updated to 6.20e. Before, on 6.18c, if I had a plain list like this: * Test - [ ] A - [ ] B - [ ] C With the cursor on the test line, typing `c-c c-x c-b' would check all the boxes, and repeating would uncheck them. Now it doesn't seem to toggle, only check. I hope this isn't a permanent change, or that there's another way to turn them all off because I use lists of check boxes 20 or 30 items long to mark off the little bits pieces I like to get done every day. It'd be a bit tedious to have to manually set them all unchecked at the beginning of each day, even with a macro. -- Chris Randle Windows XP Pro SP3 - GNU Emacs 22.1.1 - Org-mode 6.20e ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] POLL: the 40 variables project
Hi Carsten,
Hi,
yesterday I did this command in my org-mode git repo:
grep defcustom lisp/*el |wc -l
and got 378 as an answer. 378 user-customizable variables,
no kidding.
Yes, I'm afraid I've used a fair number of those myself at one point or
another.
I've attached my list of variables. Some of the settings are set to the
default, but their still in my .emacs file as a result of switching them
on and off. I certainly don't use a majority of the variables, but it's
nice to know they are there.
Perhaps in customization there could be a distinction between basic
(or setup) and advanced variables. The basic variables could be
those that most org users adjust--the ones that have the most visible
consequences and are central to the core functionality of org
(org-directory, for instance). The advanced variables could then be for
those hopeless souls, like myself, who spend far too much time tweaking.

Carsten Dominik domi...@science.uva.nl writes:
So here is my question to all of you. Could you, in reply to this
message, list all the Org-related variables that you have customized,
along with the values you used?
It seems I'm using lots of these variables currently. (58)
I tune my work flow regularly - so some of these values change over time.
Here's how I found my matches:
$ git grep -h defcustom lisp/*.el | awk '{print $2}' /tmp/customvars.txt
grep -hf /tmp/customvars.txt ~/.emacs ~/custom.el /tmp/myvars.txt;
The resulting list was edited to fill in more detail for multiline
items.
Now you asked for _all_ org variables ... and some of them aren't
defcustom settings (like org-agenda-mode-hook, and
org-blank-before-bullet) so I've included everything.
Where a hook uses a custom function I've included that too just for
completeness.
Here you go...

[Orgmode] Re: filtering timeline view
Thanks! Is there a way to include this secondary filter into a custom agenda view? Also, a couple of suggestions for the agenda view: - C-h C-m should display the available commands, like in other Emacs modes - there should be a command to remotely visibility-cycle the currently highlighted node in the original org buffer - days on which there are no agenda entries after secondary filtering should be removed from the timeline list - would be good to be able to do a secondary filter on the contents of the entries (like with keyword search), rather than just on the tags. In general, the number of commands to remember seems very large. It would be good if there was, in addition, a simple general way to select a subset of the entries, specifying: - whether to search just this file or all agenda files - what regexp the entry header and/or the entry text must match, or not match - what tags the entry must have or not have - what date range the entry must be labelled with then specifying how to sort the results: by date, (then) by tag; ascending/descending; etc. It would also be good if some of these conditions could be entered dynamically at the prompt, where they would be lisp-compiled and applied to generate the needed agenda. ilya On Thu, Jan 29, 2009 at 8:18 AM, Bernt Hansen be...@norang.ca wrote: Ilya Shlyakhter ilya_...@alum.mit.edu writes: Is it possible to filter the timeline view (agenda) by tag and/or by headline regexp?

[Orgmode] C-a and C-e in org-mode
Hello, org-mode! I've been using org-mode recently, and overall it's pretty nice, but one thing doesn't seem to work quite right. I have org-special-ctrl-a/e set to nil (the default, I think). I think this means that C-e should work just like normal. Unfortunately, C-u C-e fails with Wrong type argument: integerp, (4). If I use an explicit prefix (like C-u 4 C-e) it works fine. It's been a while since I've written any Emacs Lisp, but I guess (4) is the default prefix argument and end-of-line doesn't know how to parse that when coming in as a normal arg. This is probably an easy fix (and maybe I'll write a patch later, if I have some spare time). C-a seems to always go to the start-of-line, regardless of the prefix argument (implicit or explicit). That looks like a slightly deeper problem. Anyway, thanks for the neat mode! - Ken ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Bug(s) - Japanese radio links and tags in Japanese headlines
1. Writing something like とらドラ！ and then using C-c C-c, or saving and reopening the file does not trigger the radio link to activate. Normal internal links work fine. org-mode version: 6-19b Emacs version: 22.3.1 File is in utf-8-unix 2. If the headline contains Japanese, and you then add a tag to it, auto-aligning gets confused, and places the tag before the screen margin. The more Japanese in the headline, the more spaces in the headline. Something like this(hopefully the whitespace will get preserved): ** とらドラ！:hmm: ** にんおいろいろいろいろいにんにん！:stuff: ** 3dtotal :3d:cg: Of course, these both could be issues of broken Emacs unicode-stuff handling, but maybe someone here knows workarounds. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Empty lines between headers
Hi Cameron, a relatively recent change is causing this new behavior. The default is now to automatically insert an empty line if the current headline does also have an empty line before it. So If you have an empty line before header 1, then you will get an empty line before header 2. However, if you then go back and remove the empty line before header 2 and afterwards insert a header 3, no empty line will be inserted. The same is true for plain list items. It seems to me that this is the best behavior, but if you always prefer no empty line, customize the variable `org-blank-before-new-entry'.
