When you open new files, do you always check them out of the repository / work / check them back in? Or do you work on a local directory structure and sync outside of emacs? 3. Can you post some of the relevant config lines you have, and the key sequences you use for commits?

In the end, it's all about what works for you, but I'd like to get some insights/opinions from you: For Next Actions, are you using a single list OR you organize them hierarchically under each project (in the projects list)? I started with the second one, putting each next action (TODO) item under its correspondent project, however, it quickly became too bloated, and a mix of projects, sub-projects and next-actions. Of course, org helps there with sparse trees and other functions to filter trees, but still, I found it was too complex, albeit more specific and I did felt I was more organized, even though I was getting lost. So, I just let go of my obsession about the perfect thing and decided to try a single Next Actions list, together with a Projects list. The next actions is a single list with all the actionable items from all the projects. I've lost the relationship between a next action item and a project, but I can do this easily by just looking at the action, having the system tell me is not that important. Usually, you define all actions for a project under the same hierarchy. You can decide how you want actions to be designated next (and projects to be designated project) -- using keywords or tags and have a custom agenda command collect the next actions for you from all agenda files in a single list. -- Manish ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

What would be the best way to combine the moleskine and org-mode ? Does someone have experience with a paper based and digital mixture system?

This would allow me to check what is in my org-mode agenda. However, I would still have two independent systems. What I'am looking for is a smart way to keep both in sync and that without big hassle. It has to be something which does the job quite quick thus I will do it directly e.g., every morning before starting work... instead of pushing and pushing it away from me. Thought maybe I simply mark the entries in the paper version whether I added them to org-mode already or not and create a tag in org-mode for the vice versa reason.

Hi Manish, I think this will require a little development/bug-fixing on my part before it works easily. As I recall the elisp tangling in `org-babel-load-file' is fairly aggressive and may not respect tangle header arguments. But the method you described above (setting the tangle header argument to no -- either in a subtree property or by block) is certainly the correct approach. Hi Eric -- I believe you already have it working in exactly this way :) Manish -- could you double check please? I use :tangle no to exclude blocks of elisp from my emacs init file, and it is working. You are right. I just did not try it at all after reading that :tangle no was the default. My apologies.

Re: [Orgmode] Only show a certain weekday in the agenda view
2010/1/29 Björn Steffen :
Hello,
I'm teaching every thursday at a school. So I made a recurring entry
in my org-file like this:
* Teaching
2010-02-04 Thu 7:45-9:25 +1w
I would like to have a custom agenda view where I only see an entry
for all the Thursdays. But I cannot filter for the specific entry
above because I also would like to see other timestamped items which
fall on Thursdays.
Is there some kind of filtering function for this purpose?
I am guessing you probably want to see items related to your classes.
In that case if you tag the items related to classes, then you can
filter based on the tag ('/' in agenda or timeline view or 'C-c a m
tag').

You could define an agenda view that lists the todo list, and additionally includes the results of a search (e.g. all items with a certain tag) below that. i'll look into how i can pull together such items/tasks with a search perhaps using FILETAGS. thanks -- manish ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

All is as it should be, but for one thing. When I toggle or insert within a subtree, the headline for that project changes from PROJECT to ACTIVE if less than all tasks are done, and DONE if all tasks are done. Obviously, I want it to stay PROJECT. I've spent over an hour trying to figure this one out and I can't. Anyone got any advice? I don't use this, but replicating your example, I don't get the behavior you do. - I added your todo definitions to my .emacs - I created a simple top-level headline in a blank file and used C-c C-t to make it a PROJECT - I added three second-level headlines and made them all TODOs - I marked them done one by one and the top level always stayed as a PROJECT My end result: ,- | * PROJECT some project [3/3] | ** DONE do something | CLOSED: [2011-03-15 Tue 09:51] | ** DONE do something else | CLOSED: [2011-03-15 Tue 09:50] | ** DONE do something further | CLOSED: [2011-03-15 Tue 09:49] `- Perhaps list your org-mode version? Others will be able to debug better than I can. Perhaps start with a simple, blank file as well (or maybe you already are?). I can't figure out what would trigger it from PROJECT to the keyword in another sequence without directly specifying such. Good luck, John Cheers. Fil -- Filippo A. Salustri, Ph.D., P.Eng.

Thanks, Julian Hi Julian, I think 'e' in the agenda is supposed to exit the agenda and close automatically opened agenda files. It's `x'.

Each line in the agenda contains a pointer to the entry the line was derived from, so remote editing etc will stop working. Exiting with x is the much better solution. Thanks for pointing that out. Wouldn't x that close the agenda as well along with the buffers? OP said: It would be good to have the agenda open in a buffer without having all the agenda files opened too. May be a special custom agenda command that calls the above lambda function at the end would work better by limiting the damaged behaviour to just one command? /manish
Re: [O] A gentle introduction to Emacs Org-mode?

A friend of mine uses Scrivener; he also does some simple JavaScript/jQuery programming and HTML/CSS editing. He *is* interested in Emacs Org-mode, but does not want to spend more than, say, 2 days on installing, configuring and learning basics of EOm. Are there any resources which might help? I offered him some help with installing and teaching, but what could I use? (Of course, the built-in tutorial and Sacha Chua's sketch-tutorials are great, but what else does there exist? I found this to be very helpful - http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/tutorials/au-emacs1/index.html Also, is prelude or Emacs Starter Kit a good idea? I understand this is opinion-based, but maybe someone has some experience *teaching* Emacs and Org-mode?) I recently had to start from scratch and I tried Emacs-Starter-Kit and Prelude. Prelude seemed to fit my needs much better and got me up and running pretty quickly. Thanks -Manish
Re: [Orgmode] possible latex export bug
On Thu, Oct 2, 2008 at 2:45 PM, Austin Frank wrote:
Hello!
I'll start by confessing up front that I've been tinkering with
different exporting functions these past few weeks, so it's possible
that the bug I'm reporting here is of my own making. I can't track it
down, so here I am, hat in hand, to ask
a) is this reproducible? and,
b) if not, any idea which functions I should look at to chase it
down?
If I have the following org file
--8---cut here---start-8---
* this is a test
#+begin_latex
\mu
#+end_latex
--8---cut here---end---8---
and run org-export-as-latex, I get the following output
--8---cut here---start-8---
% normal preamble stuff
% ...
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section*{this is a test}
\mu
\end{document}
--8---cut here---end---8---
That's the correct behavior. If I use this org file
--8---cut here---start-8---
* this is a test
#+begin_latex
\begin{quote}
\mu
\end{quote}
#+end_latex
--8---cut here---end---8---
and run org-export-as-latex, I get
--8---cut here---start-8---
% normal preamble stuff
% ...
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section*{this is a test}
\begin{quote}
\mu
\end{quote}
#+end_latex
\end{document}
--8---cut here---end---8---
In the second example, the #+end_latex line is not removed during
org-export-to-latex.
Possibly related, possibly unrelated, I'm also seeing that file-local
variables defined at the end of a buffer are being exported verbatim
during org-export-as-latex. This only happens in cases where the
#+end_latex is also erroneously exported.
--8---cut here---start-8---
* this is a test
#+begin_latex
\begin{quote}
\mu
\end{quote}
#+end_latex
#+ Local Variables:
#+ org-export-latex-append-header:
#+ \\usepackage{graphicx}
#+
#+ End:
--8---cut here---end---8---
gives
--8---cut here---start-8---
% normal preamble stuff
% ...
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\begin{quote}
\mu
\end{quote}
#+end_latex
#+ Local Variables:
#+ org-export-latex-append-header:
#+ \\usepackage{graphicx}
#+
#+ End:
\end{document}
--8---cut here---end---8---
This doesn't just apply to the quote environment, I've reproduced it
with other #begin/end_latex blocks that contain latex environments.
That is to say
--8---cut here---start-8---
* this is a test
#+begin_latex
\begin{verbatim}
\mu
\end{verbatim}
#+end_latex
--8---cut here---end---8---
has the same problem of including the #+end_latex tag after export.
This is with Org-mode version 6.08-pre01, GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1
(powerpc-apple-darwin8.11.0, *Step 9.0) of 2008-10-01.
Can anyone reproduce this? Any debugging tips?
Yes, I can reproduce the issue in both the cases.
