[Orgmode] Defaults for Org variables

While I agree that it is extremely useful to get notes and clocking into drawers, this is a feature that is quite magical for a new user and maybe hard to understand.

Hi Ethan, Ethan ethan.glasser.c...@gmail.com writes: I've been studying org-mode for a few months now, and I think I'm finally getting the hang of it. It's really overwhelming, and I really appreciate the efforts that must have gone into the manual and the worg project. But I think it still needs work. needs is the wrong word here. might enjoy would be better. Because Org comes with no warranty or customer service or whatsoever :) In my opinion, the documentation doesn't explore the interactions well enough, it doesn't present the tools in an order that is conducive to learning, and it never explains why you might choose one option of tool instead of another. The manual is a reference. It's here so that people can refer to it when they write tutorials or when they send answers to the mailing list. This is not to say that the manual is perfect, but as you guess, Carsten has been incrementally working on it -- suggestions which incrementally improve it will enjoy a warmer welcome than incentives to rewrite it... (= patch welcome!) On top of that, exploring the interactions between all Org concepts is beyond the goals of the manual and that's why Worg exists as a community project. Another good example is TODO keywords, categories, and tags. It isn't clear what they all are, or why they are distinct, or what the differences are, and it's easy to confuse them with similarly-named but completely distinct concepts like properties. The manual might enjoy a glossary. ;) I have created org-glossary.org on Worg, please check it out and add your own definitions: http://repo.or.cz/w/Worg.git In other words, to really understand the manual, you have to read it twice -- once to hear about all the concepts, and once more to see how they relate. The other way is to start using Org very spontaneously and just fetch documentation when you feel the need of it. This is how I do and it works well enough. I feel like it would have been a lot easier for me to start using it if I had started with a tutorial that explained a single workflow and how org-mode supported it Your next contribution? I wish I could offer more concrete improvements in the form of patches and so on! Maybe as I learn more about org-mode I can do this too, but I wanted to offer this criticism while it was still fresh in my mind. :) I guess the other way around is also useful: share the criticism when the fresh impression vanished, and the core of it remains.

For example, Bernt Hansen's document explains that his toplevel headings are main categories, and shows that they each have a CATEGORY property, but doesn't explain what that buys him, or what problem that solves. My guess is that this allows him to see what group an item belongs to in the agenda view, since categories are listed in the left column. That's correct. The category only shows up in my agenda in the left column and gives me instant access to what this task is related to. I usually specify a shorter category name than the filename just to keep the agenda compact. My todo.org file has multiple categories since it's a mishmash of personal stuff. I use filtering to limit the displayed tasks but the category is a useful piece of information on the agenda. I don't use category for anything else. I guess the problem it solves is if I have two identical tasks in separate categories that both show up in the agenda then I can tell which is which -- but that doesn't happen often. I clock in tasks from the agenda so knowing which is which is important. Invoicing and Archive Tasks is one example since I carry one of those for every client (which are in separate files and separate categories). -Bernt ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

We had some discussions here about that, but no one got around to it. I think about it every so often, but writing a tutorial is such a big thing to do. Personally, I think that one or two fictive characters would fit best. People, simply using Org-mode to take notes, plan, publish and so on. The entire thing should start _very_ simple and without any customization at all. I see customization in chapter 15 - no earlier really unless unavoidable. Great ideas here and in the outline! Before we dive into creating a new tutorial, we might want to use David O'Toole's venerable tutorial as a point of reference. Rereading it today, it's remarkable how none of the core principles of org-mode have changed despite so much development: - http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/orgtutorial_dto.php We might also take a look at the beginner's customization guide: - http://orgmode.org/worg/org-configs/org-customization-guide.php What needs to be updated there? What's missing? I do like how org currently places Bernt's and Charles's tutorials under a power users section, to distinguish them from basic tutorials. They are examples of how two seasoned org-mode users take advantage of the variety of features that org offers. Would it be safe to say, though, that org-mode has since grown so powerful and feature-rich that its many options can now overwhelm new users, despite its core simplicity? What I hear in Ethan's original post and in many recent mailing list posts is a request for help sorting out the essentials from the optional features depending on use-scenarios. An example: It seems that a new user, inspired by the many excellent tutorials on remember, might be tempted to use remember to enter *everything* in their org-files (with dozens of complex remember templates). But in many instances, it may be faster and more convenient to enter things directly into the outline. I think what we're dealing with is the paradox of choice. Too many options can paralyze/overwhelm a user. For instance, while archiving is a straightforward feature, it's easy to get hung up on the fact that there are three separate types of archiving, which gives rise to uncertainty about which to use and when to use it, or perhaps even a sense that one *must* understand and use all of them just because they all exist. With that in mind, we might add sections to the tutorial/book structured around various use scenarios: - If you're outlining/writing an book, here are some of the features that might be useful. - If you want a basic GTD system, here are a few ways you might do it. - If you want to use org for sophisticated project management and clocking, here are some of the things you might use find useful. - If you're researching a book... - If you want to keep track of interesting bookmarks on the web... - If you want to publish documents for your co-workers... Alternatively, we might move through the tutorial/dialogue feature by feature: - What in the world are drawers? Why would I want to use those? - Etc. Just a few ideas.

[Orgmode] org-babel, src blocks and asymptote
Hello, Org-babel looks very interesting. I am pleased to see an asymptote module included in it. While testing it, I think I found 2 problems : To activate the asymptote module, you have to begin the source block, for example, with #+begin_src asymptote :file bezier.pdf Unfortunately, the major mode used to edit asymptote code is named asy-mode. This leads to the following error when you edit the block with C-c ' : no such language mode: asymptote-mode. Perhaps that module should be named org-babel-asy ? The second problem, related to Org Src handling, is that the code is put in a temporary buffer. I don't know about other languages, but, in asy-mode, you can't compile code while in that kind of buffer. This can be quite problematic in a language oriented towards graphics, as you need to often make previews of your work. In other words, is there an option to associate a temporary file to the process (even in a per-language basis) instead of a buffer ? Or do I have to mess with org-src-mode-hook to try to fix it ?

And if you were setting up a kitchen for the first time, wouldn't you ask that kind of question? :) My recommendation: Just start creating trees, use only a few TODO states, and allow the organization to evolve in the way that feels the most comfortable to you. At the time of this writing, I've stumbled because I have had one file called TODO which is becoming too cluttered for me to process usefully. I used C-c C-v to show only TODO items, but some TODO items have ellipses indicating content while some have ellipses indicating DONE items afterwards, so I end up expanding a bunch of DONE items. I have a TODO state called BLOCKING which clutters the view too. I have a vague sense that learning how to use the agenda would help, but I haven't gotten to it yet, since I've been trying to put together a coherent org-mode setup by cargo-culting things from the advanced users' setups. This probably isn't the best way to go about it, of course.. I thought org-mode level 1 was pretty easy to learn -- but I'm really struggling to get to level 2.

I solved the problem by using the file name directly:

Alternatively, you can use the backquote mechanism in such situations - it
allows you to evaluate parts of a (back)quoted expression, by preceding them
with commas:
(setq sx-notes-file-name ~/.notes.org)
(setq sx-journal-file-name ~/.journal.org)
(setq org-remember-templates
`(

[Orgmode] Org-mode version 6.30trans (release_6.30d.822.g738ba); Many DONE items missing from agenda view
Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See
http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback
Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.
If I do an agenda list of all TODO items, then show all DONE todos
(C-a t 4 r) not all my DONE items are shown. The same is true if I use
C-a T DONE ret. In particular many of the items under my 'Todos'
heading are missing - I use categories for many of my level 1 headings
so I can see some context information in the agenda view.
This has been a niggling problem for many versions, but I first
noticed it when bulk operations were introduced - that's only
significant because I want to use that to archive all completed todos
under that heading.
Any ideas?

Re: [Orgmode] org-babel, src blocks and asymptote
Hi Nicolas, Nicolas Goaziou n.goaz...@gmail.com writes: Hello, Org-babel looks very interesting. I am pleased to see an asymptote module included in it. While testing it, I think I found 2 problems : To activate the asymptote module, you have to begin the source block, for example, with #+begin_src asymptote :file bezier.pdf Unfortunately, the major mode used to edit asymptote code is named asy-mode. This leads to the following error when you edit the block with C-c ' : no such language mode: asymptote-mode. Perhaps that module should be named org-babel-asy ? Thanks for the catch, I'm now mentioning asy-mode in the requirements of org-babel-asymptote.el, and asy-mode is now listed as the major-mode for asymptote blocks in the `org-src-lang-modes' variable. After grabbing the latest Org-mode you should be able to edit asymptote source-code blocks using C-c ' The second problem, related to Org Src handling, is that the code is put in a temporary buffer. I don't know about other languages, but, in asy-mode, you can't compile code while in that kind of buffer. This can be quite problematic in a language oriented towards graphics, as you need to often make previews of your work. In other words, is there an option to associate a temporary file to the process (even in a per-language basis) instead of a buffer ? Or do I have to mess with org-src-mode-hook to try to fix it ? I don't believe that anything like this currently exists, but I agree that it would be generally useful. In the current setup the best way to preview your work would probably be to... 1) jump out of edit-src-mode C-c ' 2) re-run the source-code block from the Org-mode buffer C-c C-c Some better options which come to mind are... - use either a header argument or a language specific setting to specify that Org-edit-src should associate the src buffer with a temporary file - add a command to org-edit-src-mode which writes the buffer to a temporary file - something else... Dan has more experience than myself in dealing with Org-edit-src so he may have better ideas. I do think this is an issue that deserves further thought/discussion.

I've been using org mode pretty seriously for the last 9 months or so. I work pretty much like Matt, but the details differ as does, I think, my thought process, so I'll share, just because I have two general files codex.org and data.org. I've been naming my general organization file codex for years, so this is a personal holdover. Data, is my clipping/reference folder (describe here: http://www.tychoish.com/2009/09/fact-files/) and contains various reference material and citation information for casual things that I want to be able to capture and reuse later. The remaining files are either sphere files, so I have a file for each client/employer/work project, I have a writing file to manage my blogging and wiki projects. These files and the trees inside of them, tend to address ongoing projects and fairly well defined projects. The outline tends to describe process rather than project. And then, I have a number of project I have files for specific projects, creative writing projects, specific research projects, larger scope things which are the kinds of things that I need to work on for a while, but eventually finish. These files tend to describe projects rather than processes, and contain notes and a great deal of text, but aren't, on the whole todo lists as they are outlines that happen also to support my todo list. I've always found that org-mode works the best for me when I think of it more as an outline and data storage tool that happens to generate todo-lists if there's something actionable around. I wouldn't worry about custom commands until you need them. Just type type C-c a t or C-c a T TODO and you'll get a clean list of all your todos. I don't really use custom commands either. I'd recommend playing around with tags and filtering agendas by tags, and then building on that as you need to. There is also some crazy-awesome stuff around using agendas generated from specific files (I think.) but I've also never touched that.

[Orgmode] Build issue with latest git version - org-crypt.el
Not so much a problem as an unexpected issue. I read Eric's message about updating org-asymptote.el today and thought I would get the latest to get this fix. When I went through the process of building I found it failed at the org-crypt file since I didn't have epg.el on my system. I found a copy of this file and thought I would try it and see if that fixed the problem. Alas, no. It is part of a bigger package - epa. So I found this and tried to build/install it. Oops. it requires gpg to be installed to build it. Fortunately, this is distributed with pre-compiled binaries for Windows so installing it and modifying makefiles was pretty simple to build epa. I got that installed and modified the makefile for org-mode so it can be found and I am back up and running. I also managed to do the same thing by deleting the org-crypt.el line from the LISPF entry in the makefile. Either would work for me since I don't expect to use org-crypt regularly. I went through the above steps because I thought I might actually try to play around with it for a while and see if it was of any use to me. However, for those who won't be using org-crypt as a normal part of their daily operation it is probably simpler to make the build/installation of org-crypt optional. That way the normal maintenance for those who do simple things stays, uh, simple. Mark ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

for the weekly agenda. (You'll need a fixed-width font to view it
properly).
CATE | ITEM| E | P | A |
Week-agenda (W37-W38):
Sunday 13 September 2009
Monday 14 September 2009 W38
| Tuesday15 September 2009| . | | |
Test | TODO task 1 | | | |
Wednesday 16 September 2009
| Thursday 17 September 2009| . | | |
Test | TODO task 2 | | | |
Friday 18 September 2009
Saturday 19 September 2009
Note the alignment difference between Tuesday and Thursday and
the other dates.
Note also I am including the CATEGORY in the display, via:
(org-columns-default-format %CATEGORY %35ITEM %Effort{:} %PRIORITY
%ALLTAGS)
The problem is *NOT* VISIBLE if the %CATEGORY is removed, so one
MUST include it to view the problem.
This is probably not a issue with a normal agenda, in which there
are tasks to do every day. I actually discovered this problem using
a custom view, intended to show only appointments for the week. But
the test file shows that the problem can be seen even without
a custom agenda.
By the way, I couldn't show it in this posting, but the Tuesday and
Thursday lines, along with their TODO items, have a light grey
background, whereas everything else has a white background. This
shading problem is odd in appearance, and it happens WHETHER OR NOT
%CATEGORY is use, and so would be a separate, but related, fix.
Here's the test .org file I used:
#+STARTUP: odd
#+STARTUP: hidestars
#+STARTUP: logdone
#+SEQ_TODO: TODO NEXT PENDING | DONE(d!) CANCELLED(c@)
#+CATEGORY: Test
* Test
*** TODO task 1
SCHEDULED: 2009-09-15 Tue
*** TODO task 2
SCHEDULED: 2009-09-17 Thu
===
To display the result shown at the top of this message, I open
the test.org file in emacs, then type:
C-a a
Then in the resulting agenda window, switch to weekly if not
already, and get column mode with
C-c C-x C-c

[Orgmode] How Are Others Customizing LaTeX Export?
I've written a few LaTeX templates for use with Emacs Muse, and I am
looking at ways to use them with Org. For example, I have one template
that generates a custom title page with my company's logo, my email
address, and phone number.
After reading the manual and looking at the org-latex.el code it doesn't
look like it would be easy to customize the export in this way.
For the title page I could use the org-export-latex-title-command
variable, other customizations can use #+LATEX_HEADER:, but for stuff
like multicol that needs to do an \end{multicols} before \end{document}
it doesn't currently seem possible.
Is anyone else doing LaTeX customization with Org?

Re: [Orgmode] no annual agenda entries for repeater interval year

Hi,
I defined a repeater interval of one year, e.g., 2009-09-16 Wed +1y,
for an existing headline item. Opening the agenda view this headline is
shown for the 2009-09-16. But, it's missing for any annual repetition,
i.e., there is no entry on 2010-09-16, 2011-09-16, etc.
...because you'll need to schedule the entry?
The entry has to be a TODO, and scheduled or a deadline. After you
switched it to DONE ('S-RIGHT'), the entry shows up as done this year,
and as TODO next year.
Note, that `S-RIGHT' will switch the state from TODO to STARTED to TODO again

Re: [Orgmode] no annual agenda entries for repeater interval year
I'm using org-mode for only a month, but I also had this problem (version 6.28e). I created some headlines for birthdays and other special dates with active timestamps (not in the headline) that had a repeater of ++1y, but it only appeared on the current year. After changing to ++12m everything worked fine. However, seeing your E-Mail I decided to change it back to ++1y and it worked. -- Darlan Cavalcante Moreira darc...@gmail.com ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
