hmm.  seems links are not, or at least not yet, a complete syntactic solution.

i do but i don't want to clutter org with properties drawers.  i
already have a lot of ids and when org needs to search them it can
take some time.

basically i use non-id links for ephemeral tasks or to point to
ephemeral tasks.  i know i won't change the headers, but i want the
links there.

nah, making capture not follow is sufficient.  i don't know the
optimal solution.

[O] Android org app with sync?

[Alasdair McAndrew]

I'm sure this has been asked and answered many times before, but 
I've hunted about - both on the web and on Google Play - to find 
some app which can sync with my org files.  The closest I've come 
is orgzly:


https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.orgzly

which however only syncs with Dropbox, which I don't use (I use a 
self-hosted ownCloud instead).


Are there any other apps which will allow me to update and edit 
org files on my android device, and have them sync automatically?


I guess I can probably use orgzly with a local file, and have a 
third party app sync with my ownCloud files.  Seems like extra 
fuss, though!


Thanks,
Alasdair

[O] Remove Org from Emacs repository?

[Reuben Thomas]

Now that Emacs has had package.el for some years, and Org is installable
directly from GNU ELPA, would it be a good idea to remove Org from Emacs's
source repository?

The current situation is left over from before Emacs had package.el, and I
see no compelling reason to keep it. Org is too big and distinct to be
swallowed by Emacs; it doesn't make much sense to keep its current half-in,
half-out state; so logically it seems sensible to take it out.

I am asking this question from an Org point of view; I will ask the Emacs
maintainers separately for their perspective.

I think it would benefit Emacs too, as there would be less code to maintain
(even though Org is quasi-external at present, it still has to build
successfully as part of an Emacs build), and the Emacs distribution would
be slimmer for non-Org users.

Of course, Emacs "distributions" would still be able to include Org
out-of-the box if they wished.

[O] RFC: ob-sql-mode.el: Use sql-mode with Org Babel

[Nik Clayton]

Hoi,

I'd like to solicit feedback on ob-sql-mode.el,
https://github.com/nikclayton/org-mode/commit/106b22e9ef4835e15efc47d63aaeee675a1ebb69
.

This introduces a new Org Babel language, "sql-mode". Unlike the current
"sql" language, this one uses sql-mode to manage the interaction with the
SQL interpreters, so it supports all the backends that sql-mode supports.

It also supports sessions, so you can have different src blocks connected
to different databases or configurations in that database.

If you have, for example, "sqlite" installed on your system, you can put
the following (rather trivial) query in an Org file and evaluate it in the
usual way

#+BEGIN_SRC sql-mode :product sqlite
SELECT 1, 2, 3;
#+END_SRC

The evaluation result will look like

#+RESULTS:
: 1|2|3


Org property headers and drawers are also supported, so you could omit the
:product argument if you had

#+PROPERTY: header-args:sql-mode :product sqlite

or a property drawer that looked like

:PROPERTIES:
:header-args: :product sqlite
:END:

in scope.

Currently Org has no satisfactory way to handle square brackets within
links' path or description. Percent-escaping (e.g., "%5B")is not one.

I suggest to use a custom ID for the time being.

If you think there is another bug, please start another thread and

It's not really a bug in the exporter, but rather a poor parser design
decision. Basically "info:emacs#Echo" is a valid link in Org, even as
a description of another link.

I removed nested links in parser. Instead I added a tool in "ox.el",
namely `org-export-insert-image-links' to add them whenever a back-end
can make use of them.

I made that change in master. So, the issue should be fixed there.

Thank you.
