Re: [Orgmode] [OT] Emacs for 64 bit Windows 7

2010-12-16 Thread Nick Parker
Markus,

I run a 32 bit version of GNU Emacs in Windows 7 Ultimate x64 with no
issues.  Good luck.

 Hello all,

 first, my apologies for my previous posting, that was posted by
 accident, and when trying to cancel the article in gnus, it prompted me
 for a Canlock password which I don't know, so I wasn't able to cancel
 the posting.

 Anyhow, my question is: is there an emacs version that runs under 64 bit
 Windoze 7?  I have to have my work computer upgraded, and I've read on
 the gnu ftp site in the Windoze readme that emacs has yet to be ported
 to 64 bit Windoze.  Is this true?  I'm starting to get really nervous at
 the prospect of not being able to use org-mode anymore ...

 Any pointers are highly appreciated!

 Thanks and Cheers
 Markus

Re: [Orgmode] quick TODO entry

Sergio,

Check out org-capture (http://orgmode.org/manual/Capture.html).  You can set
a keybinding to trigger it like so:

(define-key global-map \C-cc 'org-capture)

 i have been away from org-mode and i have come back to it recently.
 when i was using it before, i seem to remember having a keystroke

 quickly shift to deadline entry, then tag entry.

 i can't find anything on this, nor can i remember what it was..

 any ideas?

 Nick,

 How about this?? Just fiddled around a little and wonder what you think.
 There might be a better way, but essentially, I've done the following:

 - Left y-axis = distance
 - Right y-axis = time
 - I couldn't get the xtic(1) option to work, so I replaced things with what
 I've found to work x:y:xticlabels(col#)
 - Beefed up the points to make them a little easier to see
 - Used your data to calibrate your speed
 --- The left y-axis is from 9-21min
 --- The right y-axis is from 1.5min - 3.5min
 --- This means the axes are 'calibrated' to 10mph

 What does the calibration do? It means that at a quick glance you can see
 your speed based on a target rate you set:
 - if speed/distance are on top of each other, you're right at your target
 - if speed (green) is higher than distance (red), you were faster than your
 target
 - if speed (green) is lower than distance (red), you were slower than your
 target

 Resetting your target is as easy as changing (in the code below):
 - Time: yrange [y1:y2]
 - Distance: y2range [y3:y4]

 All you have to do is make sure that y3/y1 = y4/y2 = target speed

 Also, remove the references to L/R and Red/Green if you'd like from the
 labels. I just tried to make the labels as easy as possible to follow so
 that no matter where you looked for a reference you would be forced to see
 what color/axis matched what value.

 I attached a sample graph. Sorry if I overstepped my bounds -- I realize
 it's *your* workout tracker. Take what you like and ditch the rest. I
 wanted to know how to do two different y axes anyway so it helped me learn.
 Code is here:

 Hi Nick,

 Maybe two things off hand (booted into OS X right now where I can't try
 your code..)

 1) try using straight gnuplot without going through org to verify your
 commands. This helps make sure that the syntax isn't producing errors.
 Another way to check this out sometimes is to C-c C-c on the code block, run
 the code, and then C-x b to the *gnuplot buffer to view any error messages.
 Those might prove helpful.

 2) try changing your plot line to: plot data using 1:2:3 notitle

 I think I ran into an issue using $data even though it's the gnuplot
 syntax. I found org examples on the mailing list where just data was used
 instead (no quotes) and that worked.


 John

 P.S. Are you trying to make a 3D graph? plot using 1:2:3 will yield a 3D
 graph and you didn't mention a z-axis label so I'm wondering if that's
 really what you want? You may want to split this into two graphs to have
 date vs. time and date vs. distance? Or date vs. distance/time (speed)?

 P.P.S Or perhaps judging by the boxwidth option you want the width of the
 bars in the graph to represent the miles run? In that case you want 'plot
 data using 1:2:3 with boxes notitle' I think.

 It seems that checkboxes in the agenda would get confusing, fast.
 Unless you could tag each checkbox with it's own 'to accomplish' date, I
 don't see where that feature would help me any.

Tassilo,

The root item is in fact a TODO item with a scheduled date, I have just been
using checkboxes as children of the root TODO item for tracking the
individual work items related to the TODO.  So for example:

* TODO Prepare for trip
[ ] pack clothes
[ ] print boarding tickets
[ ] turn on alarm

I suppose could swap out the checkboxes for two stars instead, I was just
asking.

 I guess, that's intended.  If a checkbox item is such a big task that it
 deserves its own DEADLINE/SCHEDULED/normal date, then you should have
 used a TODO heading in the first place.

  and it updates when you check/uncheck the boxes
 
  * TODO Prepare for trip

   - [ ] print boarding tickets
  - [ ] turn on alarm

 * TODO Prepare for trip [100%] [3/3]

 You can use either the [%] or [/] (or both) cookies in a headline
 As long as the checkboxes are lists it updates properly.

All,

I have several events that occur on a monthly basis where I use diary-float
sexp for recurrence.  Something like the following:

Some Meeting
SCHEDULED: 2010-02-04 Thu %%(diary-float t 4 1)

I have noticed that while the sexp will correctly reschedule the item for
me, it only tracks the state of the single entry.  So when I complete the
task and change it's state to DONE, the item no long repeats the schedule
for the future.  I therefore tried to remove the DONE and TODO states for my
repeating events entirely (but left the schedule sexp), however when I view
my agenda, I see an entry for the current day that says:

Sched. 4x Some Meeting

Where Some Meeting was in the past.  Is there a way to tell it to not
prompt me for a previously scheduled item, but still use the diary-float
scheduling for items in the future?

 From the Org Manual:

 SCHEDULED
 Meaning: you are planning to start working on that task on the
 given date.

 In other words, if you just want to mark the date and time at which an
 event (like a meeting) will occur, don't use a scheduled timestamp.
 Just use an unadorned timestamp (C-c .).

[Orgmode] Repeater Options

2010-01-17 Thread Nick Parker
Is there a way to specify a todo item that is scheduled to repeat on the 3rd
Thursday of the month?  I tried to use +1m, however that does not work the
same way.  Any suggestions?
