Re: org-mode time tracking setup integrating with SaaS (Harvest, Toggl, Bonsai etc)
Very impressive. I am probably going to steal some of these functions.
Thank you.
Is the process you use to get this into jira (via clocktable) automatedx in
any way (even copy/paste) or do you have to put things in manually again?

Re: Bug: unexpected new page started after bullet line [9.1.9 (release_9.1.9-65-g5e4542 @ /usr/share/emacs/26.3/lisp/org/)]
My apologies, I can no longer reproduce this. I'm not sure where I went wrong. On 10/10/20 4:14 AM, Richard Lawrence wrote: Hi Rob, Rob Sargent writes: This construct causes a new page to be started * head ** subhead - bullet ... in which export backend? You say you are using LibreOffice, but you provided an example Org file with many LaTeX-related options. Do you see the page break in a LibreOffice document? in a LaTeX-compiled PDF? both? If in LibreOffice, do you see the same behavior if you don't have all the LaTeX-related options in place? FWIW, I tried exporting this construct to both LaTeX and ODT *without* the LaTeX options on Org 9.4 and do not see the page breaks you are seeing.
Bug: ODT exporter permission issue on functional distros (eg, Guix) [9.1.9 (release_9.1.9-65-g5e4542 @ /home/cwebber/.guix-profile/share/emacs/26.3/lisp/org/)]
Emacs : GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.20)

/home/cwebber/.guix-profile/share/emacs/26.3/lisp/org/)
Not sure if this will work on Windows because it uses posix'y
permissions but anyway I found that the ODT exporter did not work on
Guix because the styles.xml got copied over as read-only. This fixes it
for me.
I've already done copyright assignment for the "AM/PM support on the
agenda timegrid" patch I sent in 2010; I assume this has not expired
over the last decade. If you check the use-by date and my copyright
assignment has somehow gone moldy let me know and I'll be happy to
update it.

Subject: [PATCH] ox-odt: Fix read-only error with styles.xml.
On systems where the source file is read-only, it's possible that
the destination styles.xml could end up read-only as well, resulting
in an error when modified or deleted by us.
* lisp/ox-odt.el (org-odt-template): Explicitly set permissions of
styles.xml to read-write for the current user.

Hi all, I've put ob-reticulate.el on github so it can be more easily used: https://github.com/jackkamm/ob-reticulate I plan to submit it to MELPA or GNU ELPA over the coming weeks as well. Cheers, Jack

But that's me. I am the same. One thing I do which has reduced the pain is to use the 'Edit with Emacs' Chrome extension. At least now, when I'm required to provide text input, I can do so from within Emacs. There is also an Emacs mode for stackOverflow/stackExchange sites. I've not used it for a while, but it wasn't too bad and would allow you to do your SO searching/browsing/replying from within Emacs. Main drawback was the auth2 stuff - you have to use the web browser to get a login token. I do miss the old newsgroups. I use to very much enjoy starting my day with a Gnus+NNTP session! I've never gotten use to the whole IM stuff and things like slack, but I never really got into IRC either. Tim -- Tim Cross

From my point of view mailinglists and web-forums are a step back in usability and efficiency. But there is just one exception (just IMO): StackExchange e.g. StackOverflow. ;)

But this is *not* the problem as the org mode mailing list is open, i.e. anybody can post whether they subscribe or not. Hence, replying to all is actually the safest option. The problem, if there is one, is to use a mail reading tool that doesn't show you emails you've already seen again. gnus, for instance. > Why should I modify my system because another one make errors? Not an error so either modify or live with it? I am not trying to be snarky or rude, simply stating the options for *this* particular mailing list. For other lists, the situation could be different, as it would be with newsgroups of old where it was common practice to ask for email followups with the promise of a summary of results afterwards. -- : Eric S Fraga via Emacs 28.0.50, Org release_9.4-38-g16f505

Before updating to version 9.4 box was rendered just around square brackets, but since version 9.4 it has additional space at the end. I think it's related to the fact that org-priority face definition used to use separate regex which didn't include space, and now it uses variable org-priority-regexp which does include additional space character. Thanks, all, for the excellent report and debugging. >> I think proper value for `org-priority-regex` should be >> ".*?\\(\\[#\\([A-Z0-9]+\\)\\]\\) ?", extra space should be moved out of >> the brackets, It won't break anything and face definition will be >> correct. > > This is to confirm that I and Ilja (in Cc) get the desired behaviour by > evaluating the suggested regexp. I'm wary of changing the regexp. Although the docstring does suggest the space shouldn't be a part of the first group, the group has included the space since org-priority-regex was introduced way back in 2008. And making the suggested change results in a failing test (test-org/entry-put). So at this point, I'd lean towards adjusting the docstring. I've applied a different fix for the regression (b1de0c8e4).
