[O] Follow mode: return to initial buffer after quitting
Dear Org community, When I am editing a buffer, let's called it buffer A, if I want to take a look at my agenda, this creates a buffer B (*Org Agenda*) in a split window, next to buffer A: A | B I like to activate 'follow mode' when going through the *Org Agenda* buffer. If I do so, this creates a buffer C (my org file), which is going to replace buffer A in the view: C | B That's fine, so far. However, when I quit my *Org Agenda* buffer by pressing 'q', I'm watching at buffer C. I would like to look at buffer A (buffer C should be killed if it wasn't already opened). Is there any way to accomplish this, just like using :kill-buffer t in org-capture? I am aware of org-agenda-follow-indirect but this is not what I want. Sorry if the question was already answered somewhere. Regards, FC

[O] [BUG] Weird behaviour just after a capture
Hi, I am confronted to this bug in every version of Org (shipped with Emacs, from maint, and from master). Here is how I can reproduce it every time: 1. emacs -Q (in my case GNU Emacs 24.3.50.1, with Org-mode version 8.2.3a) 2. Evaluate this code: (setq org-capture-templates '((t test entry (file+olp ~/org2.org Todo Refile) * TODO %? :prepend t))) 3. Create the ~/org2.org file like this: * Todo ** Refile * Other headline 1 * Other headline 2 4. M-x org-capture, then do a capture with t. 5. The cycling behaviour gets really weird in org2.org, from the captured task until the end of the file. It is just like if whole area was considered as a single line (this becomes apparent by turning hl-line-mode on). This error appears while trying to cycle with TAB in the area: byte-code: Invalid search bound (wrong side of point). 6. Close the file and reopen it: everything is fine. Is anyone else confronted to this? I don't know if this is Emacs or Org-related. Thank you very much, FC

[O] Scheduled tasks: total time since last DONE
Dear all, I'm sorry if this is a common question but I had trouble finding the right keywords. I am a little puzzled by the way scheduled tasks work. I will give an example. Let's have this task: * TODO Clean the kitchen SCHEDULED: 2014-07-20 jeu. .+1w If I'm lazy and don't do it for one whole week, on 2014-07-27 I will see this in my agenda: Scheduled: TODO Clean the kitchen But I would really like to see this instead: Sched. 7x: TODO Clean the kitchen This way I could see it's been 7 days I didn't do it, and tasks would be better organized in the agenda. RIght now, a task that I have to do on a weekly basis never has a number greater than '6x', and even if it hasn't been done for months, it still appears on the bottom of the list in the agenda, with a small number. So is there a way to correct this? How do you proceed? Thank you very much for your help! Regards, FC

Unfortunately, that number can be misleading: in the face of merges, there may be multiple paths that lead from some commit back to the tagged commit (run `gitk master' if you want to see the multiple paths), so the number of commits since the tag is ambiguous. It is only unambiguous if the history is strictly linear. If you do `git log --oneline -100' on master, you'll see that there is a merge commit d25846b that looks like this: , | $ git show d25846b | commit d25846b2340e32dea93fc89ea432f74a7f64d950 | Merge: f261833 91175a3 | Author: Nicolas Goaziou n.goaz...@gmail.com | Date: Sat Mar 29 15:02:10 2014 +0100 | | Merge branch 'maint' ` The merge commit has two parents: f261833 and our old friend 91175a3.

But that's because `git describe' takes a different, much longer, path back to the tagged commit: it follows the first parent of the merge commit. So I'm pretty sure that the patch that the bisection fingered is indeed the culprit. I believe this is correct but if not, Achim will correct me:-) -- Nick

Re: [O] Agenda items refer to the wrong headline
Dear all, This (in my opinion) serious bug still appears when using the last ELPA version of Org (8.2.5h-98-g0820d0-elpa @ ~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20140407/) on Windows with GNU Emacs 24.3.1.

Re: [O] Is there an environment for Org syntax?
Hi Bastien, The indentation of the exported HTML looks correct to me: some text is right below *** Third level The HTML color of the leading stars is taken from the org-hide face. When your background is black, the org-hide face is black, hence the color you see in the HTML output. Let me reformulate. I'm looking for a way to tell the HTML exporter how to format Org syntax. I was expecting it to format it according to my own preferences. For example, I usually set org-indent-mode to t since it is cleaner. But this is not taken into account by the HTML exporter: it produces a 'standard' Org syntax, the one you get by default without any configuration, with visible leading stars and no indentation. Is it possible to change that? Two other minor observations. 1. I changed the org-hide face to other colors, like red (just for trying, since I didn't know about that possibility). As soon as I export an Org buffer to HTML, the org-hide face comes back to its initial value: the leading stars are back from red to invisible. This might be anormal. 2. About the black leading stars in my previous posts, I found the problem: when org-indent-mode is activated by setting org-startup-indented to t, it produces black leading stars in my HTML output. This doesn't happen when it is activated using the org-indent-mode function or when '#+STARTUP: indent' is in the file. This might be a bug too. Thanks for your time, FC

Then, with the point on the headline, (in the file buffer or in the agenda buffer), you could call a function that would add the ingredient to a list, or increment its quantity if the ingredient is already there. Maybe a function to add a random number of recipes (through a filter or not) to the shopping list would be nice too, if you don't know what to cook in a particular week.

In the end, I would like to export it in multiple formats, HTML for sure, but maybe LaTeX too (I am, of course, writing it with org-mode). I am not aware of a functionality, or hack, which would allow me to include Org syntax in the document, without it being taken into account by Org itself and the exporter as being part of the document structure. Instead, I'd like it to be exported as it appears in my Emacs Org file, including colors, etc. I hope I am explaining this clearly. Is it possible? Thank you very much for you help, FC
Re: [O] Is there an environment for Org syntax?
Yes, thank you very much, that was it. I was thinking about doing this, but I didn't know how to escape the syntax. This is quite embarrassing since I just noticed that it is explained in the manual, and even more, since the comma is added automatically when you edit the org code by hitting C-c ' anyway... Thanks again!

For me, the following: #+begin_src org :exports code ,#+begin_src org :exports code ,#+end_src #+end_src produces Org code via the HTML and Latex export backends. I think there are syntax highlighting export extensions in the wild (just search the web for something like 'org export syntax highlighting' to see a diverse collection of proposed solutions; Pygments appears to be a common theme, though I know nothing about it), but AFAIK they are not distributed with Org at this time. Does that at least address the first part of your inquiry? Sorry I couldn't offer anything actionable for the second; maybe someone else can pick up where I left off.

Re: [O] Is there an environment for Org syntax?
Thank you, this sounds interesting; I'm not very good either, but I will have a look at this. And I actually have a related question (I hope it's not in the manual this time): is it possible to indent the Org syntax in the HTML export as it is indented in an Emacs buffer when org-indent-modeis activated? The indentation in the HTML file looks like the one you get in Org by default, even if my org-indent-mode variable is set to t in my Org buffer.

Re: [O] Filter for recursive counting (org-hierarchical-todo-statistics)
Hi, Okay, actually, after using this solution, there is just one thing I think that could be considered a bug (not very problematic though). Consider the following subtree: * TOCOMPLETE Project A [0/3] ** TOCOMPLETE Subproject[0/2] *** TODO Task 1 *** TODO Task 2 ** TODO Task I excluded the keyword TOCOMPLETE from 'org-provide-todo-statistics' so it won't appear in the statistics. This is why I get [0/3] at the top of the subtree. But if I mark the 2 tasks in the subproject as DONE, then I also want to mark the subproject itself as DONE (using a special keyword, like COMPLETED). However, marking it as COMPLETED will include it again in the statistics: instead of getting [2/3], I will get [3/4]. Is there any way to explicitly include the DONE keyword in org-provide-todo-statistics (and consequently, implicitly exclude other DONE keywords)? I tried to include DONE but it doesn't work. Thank you very much and sorry for the nitpicking ;) FC On Fri, Jan 10, 2014 at 11:29 PM, Fletcher Charest fletcher.char...@gmail.com wrote: Dear Bastien, Thank you very much! It works perfectly.

[O] Filter for recursive counting (org-hierarchical-todo-statistics)
Dear community, My org-hierarchical-todo-statistics variable is set to nil in order to obtain a recursive count of my TODO items in subtrees. However, I would like to know if it is possible to filter this count to include only some TODO keywords. A real-life example : I use the TODO/DONE keywords for actions on which I can act directly, and the TOCOMPLETE/COMPLETED keywords for actions that will be instantly done when all their children are done (no direct action required). What I would like in that case is having a recursive count only for the TODO/DONE keywords, by not taking into account the TOCOMPLETE/COMPLETED keywords in the cookie. Thank you very much for your help, FC
Re: [O] Custom forwarding for a scheduled task
Dear all, In case someone would be interested, I came up with an ugly hack, nor robust or elegant, but it works... It iterates over all headings, check if the current heading has a property reschedule and a TODO state, and if the number of days passed in the current year for today is greater than the number of days passed in the current year when the task was scheduled (quite clumsy, but I couldn't find another way to do it...). If these conditions are met, the task get cancelled. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (defun fc/org-forward-task-if-not-done () (interactive) (save-excursion (goto-char (point-max)) (while (outline-previous-heading) (when (and (org-entry-get (point) reschedule) (equal TODO (cdar (org-entry-properties))) ( (string-to-number (format-time-string %j)) (string-to-number (format-time-string %j (org-get-scheduled-time (point)) (org-todo CANCELLED) (global-set-key (kbd s-f) 'fc/org-forward-task-if-not-done) #+END_SRC When used on a task like this... * TODO test :PROPERTIES: :reschedule: yes :LOGGING: CANCELLED(!) :END: SCHEDULED: 2013-10-24 jeu. ++1w ...when I press s-f, the task is automatically scheduled to the next thursday (from today) if it was not done starting from 2013-10-25.
