Aloha all,

I'm using Org-mode version 7.8.02 (release_7.8.02.13.g0c09a.dirty).
It's fairly certain that the message comes from org-capture:
,
| ...
| (condition-case error
| (org-capture-put :template (org-capture-fill-template))
| ((error quit)
| (if (get-buffer *Capture*) (kill-buffer *Capture*))
| (error Capture abort: %s error)))
| ...
`
and presumably from the call to org-capture-fill-template. The latter
part of the error message comes from the emacs selection processing
in the file src/nsselect.m which says:
/* NeXT/Open/GNUstep / MacOSX Cocoa selection processing for emacs.
in the function
,
| ns_string_from_pasteboard (id pb)
| {
|...
| Fsignal (Qquit,
| Fcons (build_string (pasteboard doesn't contain valid
data),
| Qnil));
| return Qnil;

| }
`
So it's MacOSX specific and in emacs C code. But I have no idea what
causes it.
I'm afraid that's about as far as I can go. If you can edebug the
org-capture-fill-template function, maybe you can single-step it and
figure out where it croaks and what values it passes to the function
that causes the error and then proceed further down the call chain.

Re: [O] Location of OpenDocument style files should be configurable
Am 29.12.2011 17:06, schrieb Jambunathan K: Side Note: I am little bit hesitant to make org-odt-styles-dir a defcustom. Already there are defcustoms for org-export-odt-styles-file and org-export-odt-content-template-file and making org-odt-styles-dir will add needless confusion to the users. That should be OK for the bundled styles that are installed together with org mode. The question remains whether you want to allow users to have their own style files. If one can have per-user style files, there probably needs to be a configurable location for them to be stored and a way to decide if the standard styles should be visible or not (maybe like load-path). -- Achim.

[O] Honour existing restrictions if possible when visiting tasks from the agenda
The following short patch series fixes org file restriction handling for me. I'm regularly narrowing to subtrees for a project from the agenda and then using the agenda to visit tasks in the subtree. Each time I visit a task, clock in, or regenerate the agenda my restriction is removed in the org file. The following patch series fixes this behaviour.

Re: [O] DAG structure / hard links / shared subtrees
Jan Kybic ky...@fel.cvut.cz writes: Dear org-mode users, this is my first post, so let me first state that I am using org-mode more and more for organizing my daily agenda and I find it really useful. I have a feature request. The structure of the org file is a tree. yes, due to the basis being an outline. I wondered if it could be made a directed acyclic graph (DAG) instead. In other words, could a subtree be shared between two trees? In yet another words, a kind of Unix directory structure with hard links. not possible unfortunately. One possible use case is as follows: I am preparing a meeting that concerns several projects. I have my org file structured by projects. I want to prepare an agenda for this meeting, which would contain the issues to discuss from the projects. I want to be able choose the order the issues. During the meeting, I want to add notes. Right now, I see the following options: a) I can copy the subtrees corresponding to issues from the projects. However, if I later edit either of the copies, I would need to synchronize the changes manually. or simply refile the notes? I always go through the notes I have taken at a meeting after the meeting, in my case to define tasks etc. You could refile all the notes into the proper places in the hierarchy at this point. org has very nice refile support. b) I can make an internal link from the agenda to the issues. However, the agenda would then not contain the full detail of the issues, just a short part of the headline. During the meeting I would have to jump there and back. True but jumping is easy in org? c) I can create the meeting agenda dynamically, by assigning tags to projects and creating a sparse tree, e.g. from the Agenda buffer. However, this requires me to mark every issue to be discussed with a meeting-specific tag. I do not have much control over the order in which the issues appear. I cannot structure them. The generation takes time. And it is not straightforward to add new items to the meeting. I am not sure how the hard links mechanism you suggest above would help in this case? Preparing an agenda can be difficult. What you could do is have special TODO labels for issues that need to be discussed at the next meeting? I am not familiar with the internals of the org-mode but I can envision several possible implementations: a) Enhance existing links so that they can be expanded in-place to show the whole subtree, not just a start of the headline. Ideally, it should be possible to make changes there but a read-only access would also help. b) Physically copy linked trees to the new location. Make the copies share an Id but have a unique subId. Then when one of the copies is changed, the changes are propagated into other copies. I believe a lot of the logic could be borrowed from org-mobile, which also performs synchronization. What do you think, does it sound feasible? Is there any other way to achieve what I want with org-mode? I think both of these would be very difficult to implement with the latter being quite prone to conflicts... I think a judicious combination of refiling, jumping and TODO customisation could give you what you want?

Thanks,

I know you have received answers for both HTML and ODT. This is also
possible with latex. One possible solution is as follows:
#+begin_src org

#+latex: \newsavebox{\blockone}\begin{lrbox}{\blockone}
#+begin_src octave :exports code :results silent
function f(x)
y = 2*x;

#+latex: \newsavebox{\blocktwo}\begin{lrbox}{\blocktwo}
#+begin_src octave :exports code :results silent
a = 10;
b = f(a);
disp(b)
#+end_src
#+latex: \end{lrbox}
| Function definition | Function use |
|-+|
| \usebox{\blockone} | \usebox{\blocktwo} |
|-+|
#+end_src
I hope this makes sense but basically you save the output of the
formatting of the blocks into latex boxes which you later place wherever
you want. The side benefit is you can use these blocks more than one...

[O] Off-topic: *.gpg files and EasyPG
Dear All, Apologies if this is totally off-topic, but I think many people use org-mode + EasyPG to encrypt *.org.gpg files, and I could not think of a more knowledgeable list than this one ;-). * Summary: If an encrypted buffer is killed right when it is being opened (when you just typed the password), the contents of the encrypted buffer are left, as plain text, in other buffer(s). * Details: I routinely use org mode with EasyPG. Yesterday, after realizing that sometimes I leave a gpg buffer open for longer than I should, I figured I'd set a timer so that any buffers that end with *.gpg are killed periodically. This seems to work OK, except if the buffer is killed right at the moment when it is being visited; i.e., right after you have entered the password. If that happens, the contents of the encrypted file are left, as plain text, in one of the other buffers (often *Scratch* or *Messages*, if those exist, or some other buffer, and oftentimes one which is not currently visible). ** Reproducible example 1.I have the following code in my .emacs: --- ;; from ;; http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5097561/killing-buffers-whose-names-start-with-a-particular-string (require 'cl) (defun is-killable-buffer (buffer) (let ((name (buffer-name buffer))) (string-match .*\\.gpg$ name))) (defun kill-killable-buffers () (loop for buffer being the buffers do (and (is-killable-buffer buffer) (kill-buffer buffer (run-at-time t 120 'kill-killable-buffers) - 2. Now, create a *.gpg file, put something in there, and save it so symmetric encryption is used. 3. Change the interval when kill-killable-buffers runs. Set it at 1: (run-at-time t 1 'kill-killable-buffers) and evaluate the expression. 4. Try to visit the gpg file. As soon as you enter the password, the buffer is killed. So you never see it being opened. You do see the message Wrong type argument: stringp, nil But the contents, as decrypted, plain text, will be left in one of your other buffers; might be *Messages* or *Scratch* or *ESS* if you have it, but it could also be any other buffer you are visiting. If the contents end in another buffer you are visiting (say, buffer abc.txt), and you do not notice what happened, when you save abc.txt all the contents of the encrypted file end up in a plain text file. ** Questions. 1. Is this the way it should be? In particular, dumping the unencrypted content on another, normal buffer, seems worrisome. 2. Suppose the contents end up in *Scratch* or *Messages*. How serious a problem is this? Of course, if anybody has physical access to the machine while you are not there that is a problem. But I understand that the content of those buffers is never saved? And it cannot be accessed remotely? The reason for question 2. is that if those are not worrisome, then it might make sense to use the approach of having a timer to kill the gpg buffers periodically, and have it run in an emacs process that is dedicated, exclusively, to opening the gpg file(s).

[O] inline src_R also in latex src block
Hello,
I am using org-mode version 7.8.02
I can successfully do inline `src_R' e.g. via
--8---cut here---start-8---
\begin{equation}
src_R{4 + 4}
\end{equation}
--8---cut here---end---8---
where `8' is put into the equation environment on export. Sadly, there
is no LaTeX font lock in the org file this way. But when I do it inside
a latex src block providing font lock, e.g.
--8---cut here---start-8---
#+name: test
#+begin_src latex
\begin{equation}
src_R{4 + 4}
\end{equation}
#+end_src
--8---cut here---end---8---
the `src_R' is put in literally on latex export.
Is there a way of preprocessing this latex src block with babel for R
prior to exporting?
Thanks in advance,
Michael

When org-mode is installed as a separate Gentoo package, its lisp files are installed in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/org-mode/. According to our policy, non-lisp files would go to /usr/share/emacs/etc/org-mode/. We would pass this as the etcdir parameter to make install, so the odt style files would be installed in stylesdir = /usr/share/emacs/etc/org-mode/styles/. Now org-odt.el currently defines org-odt-styles-dir in a defconst, and it searches only in ../etc/styles/, ./etc/styles/, and ./etc/org/ relative to lispdir. Obviously it cannot find the files in the Gentoo location. Now my question, could the defconst be changed to a defvar, so that we can specify the location in our site-start file? Or, preferably, could the etcdir specified in make command be honoured in the lisp code? Ulrich [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396269 --

Re: [O] DAG structure / hard links / shared subtrees
I have a feature request. The structure of the org file is a tree. I wondered if it could be made a directed acyclic graph (DAG) instead. Thanks for the reaction. or simply refile the notes? I always go through the notes I have taken at a meeting after the meeting, in my case to define tasks etc. You could refile all the notes into the proper places in the hierarchy at this point. org has very nice refile support. Yes, I am using a combination of refiling, tags, links and searches, and it works. However, it looks fragile and ad hoc. As far as I see it, some things just naturally can be classified using several hierarchies, like something that concerns project A, was first discussed at meeting B and should be consulted with person C. Where should I put it? I would like to be able to find it in all three places. Moreover, I would like to prepare a meeting with person C, make notes on the subject while we talk and then have the notes available also when browsing the hierarchy of project A. I have to choose one of the three trees and use tags or whatever other means to make it visible in the other two trees. If I forget to tag it, it is lost, very difficult to find again. c) I can create the meeting agenda dynamically, by assigning tags to projects and creating a sparse tree, e.g. from the Agenda buffer. However, this requires me to mark every issue to be discussed with a meeting-specific tag. I do not have much control over the order in which the issues appear. I cannot structure them. The generation takes time. And it is not straightforward to add new items to the meeting. I am not sure how the hard links mechanism you suggest above would help in this case? Preparing an agenda can be difficult. What you could do is have special TODO labels for issues that need to be discussed at the next meeting? Even with such TODO labels, how do I sort them into the order I want? With links, it is easy, I just link all the issues I want to discuss to the meeting subtree, in the order I want.

Re: [O] Clock time implied as 00:00
François Pinard pin...@iro.umontreal.ca wrote:
Hi, Org people.
This morning, I just noticed this line:
CLOCK: [2011-12-29 jeu 9:30]--[2011-12-29 jeu 11:44] = 11:44
because of the strange 11:44 total. My error is clear, as I wrote 9:30
instead of 09:30. Correcting it gives a move reasonable total:
CLOCK: [2011-12-29 jeu 09:30]--[2011-12-29 jeu 11:44] = 2:14
Yet, forgetting a leading 0 is an easy mistake (I know I should not make
mistakes!), and then, maybe (I'm not sure) Org mode could deliver
unexpected or misleading statistics out of a silent error. Not such a
problem for me, yet it could have become one if I missed it.
Would it be reasonable to suggest that Org mode be more lenient about
missing leading zeroes?
There are two regexps that match timestamps, org-ts-regexp0 and
org-ts-regexp1 (and two more, derived from the first two). In each case
the part that matches the HH:MM part is as follows:
... \\([0-9]\\{2\\}\\):\\([0-9]\\{2\\}\\)...
in words: exactly two digits, followed by a colon, followed by exactly
two digits. Modifying them so that the HH part can be one or two
digits seems to make org-parse-time-string work correctly with the above
input:
... \\([0-9]\\{1,2\\}\\):\\([0-9]\\{2\\}\\)...
Whether this has undesirable consequences[fn:1], I don't know. Actually
it's only regexp0 that is used in org-parse-time-string, so strictly
speaking, only it needs to be modified.
Nick
Footnotes:
[fn:1] In particular, org-ts-regexp0 is explicitly used in org-odt.el, so at
least that part
needs to be checked for breakage, something that I have not done.

Hi Jambunathan,
So you're defining org-odt-data-dir at byte-compile time with
BATCH_EXTRA, and its value will be embedded in the .elc file? Clever.
Nevertheless, I've added another setq for org-odt-data-dir to our
site-init file. Just to be on the safe side, in case a user will
decide to load the uncompiled elisp file (for debugging, or whatever).
You may also want to read the comments under

So do I get this right:
contrib/odt/BasicODConverter/BasicODConverter*.oxt should go to
${datadir} directly, and contrib/odt/etc/schema/* should go to
${datadir}/schema?
Let know how things go.
Looks like the current git head is working fine.

[O] Generating burndown charts using org mode
Hi Org-Moders, I've been using Org-Mode quite a bit, but I'm afraid I'm not an advanced user. I'm trying to generate burndown charts [1] which basically follow coding progress over a bounded period of time (an iteration). I started by generating a file for each iteration: snippet_of_org_file * Tasks in iteration - [[file:list_1.org]] - [[file:list_2.org]] #+tblname: test_chart | Day | Expected | Actual | |-+--+| | 0 |4 | 4 | | 1 |3 | 4 | | 2 |2 | 1 | | 3 |1 | 0 | | 4 |0 | 0 | /snippet_of_org_file list_1.org and list_2.org contain a total of 4 tasks for this time period (tagged with :iteration1:). The table is updated manually at present. Day is an index to the days in the time period, with work always starting on day 1; Expected is the number of tasks expected to be remaining on that day; Actual is the number of tasks actually remaining. I then use org-babel/gnuplot to plot the chart as explained on a previous post [2]. It seemed logical to try to generate the table automatically. I can use org-mode's spreadsheet's facilities for generating all the days in the table and I can even use date arithmetic to get dates for a day index. As you can imagine, the bit I'm really stuck with is how to populate the Actual and Expected columns. I've read a little bit about agenda views, and they seem to do a lot of what I want, but unfortunately the lisp is not entirely obvious for a newbie such as me. My questions are: - is there an org-mode function that computes the total number of tasks marked with a given tag in this file and any other files it includes? - is there an org-mode function that computes the total number of tasks marked with a given tag and marked as CLOSED on a given day in this file and any other files it includes? I was wondering if you could give me some pointers on how to go about finding or even creating these functions as I failed to find anything obvious. Even a give up, its not trivial would do, so I can at least stop searching. Many thanks for your time.

[O] book: checklist Manifesto: How To Get It Right
Has anyone else read this book? The approach the author advocates for complex situations is to use both a simple check list along with what the construction industry calls a submittal list. The simple check lists get used to cover normal circumstances and the submittal list gets used when exceptional exceptional circumstances arise. I don't know how much of this has already been implemented in org-mode, and if all of it isn't yet available time permiting, doing so might get org-mode to be used by the World Health Organization since they've already got this approach in use already according to the author who helped them set it up.

extraneous space in a regexp (^[ \t]* when it should be ^[ \t]*).
This patch fixes the issue for me (in `org-clock-in'), and it makes the same
change in `org-clock-find-position'. I've tested this briefly and it works for
me; nothing about clocking-in behavior seems to break, and persistent clocks
work now.
I've also wrapped `regexp-quote' around instances where org-clock-string is
used to build a regexp, in case someone puts funny characters in their
org-clock-string.
Hopefully, the patch is attached correctly and Thunderbird didn't mangle it.
Cheers!

Subject: [PATCH] Fix regexps in org-clock.el
* org-clock.el (org-clock-in): Remove extraneous space from regexp
used to find dangling clock lines when resuming a clock. Also apply
`regexp-quote' where org-clock-string is used in a regexp.
(org-clock-find-position): Remove extraneous space from regexp used to
find dangling clock lines when resuming a clock. Also apply
`regexp-quote' where org-clock-string is used in a regexp.
I have been seeing errors of Cannot restart clock because task does
not contain unfinished clock when auto-resuming a saved (persistent)
clock. Deleting the extra space (in `org-clock-in' at least) puts an
end to these errors.
