Re: [O] org-capture-template: SCHEDULED: obsolete?
On 11/05/2011 11:35 PM, Marius Hofert wrote: Apparently, the string SCHEDULED: is not required for an entry to appear in agenda view. Hi Marius, the difference between date and SCHEDULED: date is that date will cause the entry to appear in the agenda only on the given day, whereas SCHEDULED: date will also cause the entry to be displayed on the current day if it is scheduled in the past and has not been marked DONE yet. To see what I mean, put the following entries into an agenda file: * Test 1 SCHEDULED: 2011-11-05 Sat * DONE Test 2 SCHEDULED: 2011-11-05 Sat * Test 3 2011-11-05 Sat Because Test 1 it is not marked done, if you refresh your agenda view today, you will see something like this: Sched. 2x: Test 1 Test 2 does not show up because it is marked DONE and Test 3 does not show up because it does not contain the SCHEDULED keyword. (Note that Test 1 will only show up on the agenda view for today and the day it was scheduled for when you look at the agenda view for a day in the past or future, for example by using the weekly or monthly view or going forward/backward with the f and b keys. For more information, please refer to Section 8.3, Deadlines and scheduling, in the Org manual. Hope this helps, Jan

Hi Jay,
I faced the same problem about a year ago.
See this thread in the mailing list archive:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/24227
The HTML exporter will refuse to include a TOC if body-only is t; the
atom exporter and a send HTML messages with Wanderlust hack relied on
that behaviour, which is why this was not changed in the official Org
repository.
You can either apply the one-line patch I included in the linked thread
or ask Ian Barton about his solution using jQuery he mentioned at the

Re: [O] [WISH] Latex WYSIWYG
On 06/21/2011 02:22 AM, Sebastian Berchtold wrote:
Hi, my first post here: So big shout outs to all org-mode hackers.
Great Stuff!
There is one feature I'd really like to have, but i couldn't find
anything that does what i want. I guess it's just a small hack, but
with my retarded elisp skills it would take me days to implement it.
WYSIWYG Latex is probably not the correct term for this. What i have
in mind is more like seeing the formula, while editing the
ASCII/Unicode representation. I'll try to explain the idea more
detailed.
Hi Sebastian,
I have attached a quick and dirty hack I wrote in December 2010.
It works by updating an image file whenever the formula at point in your
Org buffer changes.
If that image file is currently open in an image buffer, that buffer is
automatically refreshed.
If LaTeX reports an error, the image will not be updated, so you have to
check if the image updates when you expect it to to avoid syntax errors.
See the comments at the top of the file for usage instructions.
Unfortunately, due to lack of time and knowledge of org-mode and elisp,
this thing likely still has a lot of bugs and is not implemented
properly (I guess it should be a minor mode).
However, it seems to work in simple cases.
Hope this helps,
Jan

Re: [Orgmode] mathjax HTML export question
On 08/23/2010 08:12 PM, Erik Iverson wrote: Is there something that I'm missing, or that could be better with a local installation of MathJax? I don't know what reverts to image fonts in Firefox means, but whatever is happening on my export seems to look nice. Hi Erik, when MathJax cannot use its custom math fonts, it replaces each character with a pre-rendered image (I think it has each character available in a handful of different sizes). At normal font sizes, the disadvantages of image fonts are not that noticeable to me (except that math symbols in links appear black instead of blue, because the images are only available in black). The main disadvantage is that font quality degrades when you zoom in. I have not tested if one can notice a difference when printing (theoretically, real fonts will look better, because the printer has a higher resolution). In the context of Static MathJax, the disadvantage is that the script cannot embed image fonts into HTML files, which is why I mentioned this in my email. The change to .htaccess had certainly not happened when I announced Static MathJax, as I used the installation at orgmode.org for testing.

If you had never turned on LaTeX snipped math publishing, this will now magically work all by itself. Yes, indeed it does! Since I read the announcement this morning, I have been playing with MathJax. I found that when an HTML file on the local hard disk uses MathJax from the web, MathJax reverts to image fonts in Firefox (this is caused by a security feature of Firefox and mentioned in the MathJax FAQ). Using a local MathJax installation in a subdirectory fixes this. Most of my time was spent messing around with XULRunner to load the exported HTML page, wait until MathJax has done its magic, then serialize the result back to XHTML. And replace the file:// URLs pointing to the fonts of my local MathJax installation with data: URIs, thus embedding the fonts within the HTML file itself, just because I can. The result is a single HTML file which does not require JavaScript to be viewed (and incurs no delay while the math is being rendered). However, as no MathJax code is present, the zoom and view source functions of MathJax are not available. I have put an example online. Normal org-mode export using MathJax from orgmode.org: http://www.jboecker.de/2010/08/14/mathjax-example.html Single-file no-javascript version: http://www.jboecker.de/2010/08/14/mathjax-example-nojs.html Internet Explorer will not use the correct font, AFAIK because it only supports the EOT fonts (MathJax uses OTF for other browsers), and in this case also because I embedded the fonts using data: URIs and IE limits the size of data: URIs to 32 KB. In browsers other than Firefox (I tested with Firefox and Opera), the font size and spacing will differ slightly between the two versions. If people are interested, I can try to make the program take the name of a file to operate on as a command line argument, so this could be run as part of an org-mode export process or something. Of course, the embedding of fonts in data: URIs would be optional. I am really, really excited about this change. Using MathJax makes Org-mode a tool without peer for scientific note taking, I believe. It will also drastically improve the quality of printed web pages, because the web pages will not use fixed-resolution images, but scaleable fonts. And don't forget that on modern high resolution displays, it is common to zoom in just to be able to decipher math in images, especially if you want sub- and superscripts to be legible. -- Jan ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Hi Jan,
can you expand a bit on why this is interesting to do? What are the
advantages?
Thanks!
- Carsten
Advantages are:
- The user is not required to have JavaScript enabled
- In some cases, there is a speed advantage, because
there is no rendering stage. This is especially
noticeable on high-latency connections when the MathJax files
are not already cached.
- Fonts can be embedded into the HTML file itself, so it feels
more 'document-like' (no need to move additional files around)
- The approach might be interesting for HTML email, because it
would require neither JavaScript nor attachments
Of course, there are disadvantages too:
- No interactive MathJax features (zoom, view source, switch rendering
backend)
- no fallback to image fonts (although AFAIK, all current versions
of major browsers support CSS3 custom fonts)
- slightly different spacing and font sizes in non-Firefox browsers
- if fonts are embedded within the HTML file:
* IE will not show the correct font (but in my test the
formatting was still correct and readable)
* The HTML file will be larger (my small example grew by 436 KB).
Bandwidth is wasted because the fonts are base64-encoded.
I would not recommend this for regular publishing on the web. As long as
JavaScript is enabled (as it is in most cases), the disadvantages
outweigh the advantages. It might come in handy if you want to send
someone a single file (although you can always use PDF for that) or if
you want to provide an alternative for users who have JavaScript disabled.
Ideally, there would be some sort of graceful degradation, so that users
without JavaScript see the non-JS version, but if JavaScript is enabled,
the math gets re-rendered and all MathJax features are available. I have
not explored the feasibility of that.

I have attached the (very simple) example org file to this email. The
first example is the result of exporting this file with C-c C-e h (like
Carsten said, it Just Works). The second example is the result of
processing the first one with a xulrunner application I hacked together
(which is independent of emacs). I'll try to get that application into a
publishable form tomorrow (remove hard-coded values, make embedding
fonts into the HTML file optional, etc).
My aim is to provide an elisp function to be called from an export hook
which makes the appropriate call to create the non-JS version.

[Orgmode] Listing todos which have other todos in the subtree in the agenda
I have a projects.org file with entries like this: * PROJECT Find the answer to life, the universe and everything * PROJECT World Domination *** NEXT build Doomsday Device (where PROJECT and NEXT are both defined as todo keywords.) I'd like to define a custom agenda view to get a project list. I tried a TAGS search for '+TODO=PROJECT'. My problem is that the World Domination project is not shown, because the todo is blocked by the build Doomsday Device next action. I tried setting `org-enforce-todo-dependencies' to nil in the local settings for the agenda command, but that did not help. Setting `org-todo-keywords' to '((sequence PROJECT)) also did not help. I'd appreciate any ideas on how to achieve a list of all my projects, regardless of whether they have next actions defined or not. (Simply looking at the projects.org file is not enough, as I plan to make a block agenda which shows projects in groups which have specific tags, i.e. active (untagged) projects first, then those tagged SUSPENDED, then SOMEDAY, then MAYBE.)

If you want to generate a table that contains links to a detailed view for each entry, I guess you need some custom elisp code. Maybe write your own dynamic block function which first calls `org-dblock-write:columnview' to do most of the heavy lifting, then post-processes the output to make an id column into links, and finally calls the export function for every TODO headline and the headline containing the dynamic block (while supplying appropriate file names)?

Re: [Orgmode] My reference data management approach with org and emacs
[The following text has gotten quite long. Sit comfortably and get a cup of your preferred drink if you want to proceed.] That is an interesting setup you describe there. I had considered something similar myself, but found it a hassle to come up with a file name for every new piece of information (although unix does allow everything except / in a file name, I want my file names to be lower case, short and without spaces where feasible). To paraphrase what you said, putting things into files just makes you loose time thinking about file names (which I also consider structure). In the end, I settled upon one big org file (reference.org). Each piece of reference information is in its own top-level node. When I want to find something there, I use isearch and/or search for a specific tag (in virtually every case, a simple isearch for one or two words is sufficient). This is way faster than navigating the file system! I also share your dislike of categories (which a strictly hierarchical file system would force me to use). I have two remember templates to add an entry to reference.org. The first template asks me for tags (%^g) and a title for the headline. After filing it (at the top of reference.org) with C-c C-c, Org jumps to the location it was just filed (% in the template), in case I want to use C-c C-c again to readjust the tags. I use this first template to keep data that can be expressed in plain text (including all the powerful tools Org gives me to work with plain text, such as outlines, links and tables). The second template is a little more complex; it calls a custom elisp function to do all the work. When I call this second template, I am asked for the following: - a title for the headline - a date (I mostly use this template to file scanned letters, invoices and the like, so it helps to be able to change the date from the default of today.) - a folder name (defaulting to -MM-DD.S, i.e. the previously specified date followed by a sequence number to make the folder name unique). Normally, I do not customize the folder name, because I only need to find the reference data via Org and do not need to navigate to it using e.g. the open dialog of any other program (and I do not want to change it in the future, which might make a folder name containing a date obsolete). - where the original went (defaults to Trash). This is stored as an attribute in the outline node. A new subfolder with the specified folder name is created in ~/org/data/ and set up as this node's attachment directory. The ID of the node is set to data-folder name, so I can link conveniently to this entry from project notes. The custom elisp function also installs a hook that automatically calls org-attach-attach-mv if I try to file the template without having added any attachment, so I do not forget this. I use this second template when I have to attach a file to the entry, because it cannot be represented in Org. This mostly applies to scanned paper of any sort (letters, invoices, etc). I have a shell script which I use to scan directly to PDF files (I do not use OCR, the PDF just serves as a container for possibly multiple scanned pages, so that browsing and printing the whole document is convenient). If it was an important document where I might need the original in the future, I specify Filed when asked where the original went, write the folder name/ID number in the top right corner of the document with a pencil (in case of very important documents or certificates I use a post-it note), and file it on top of a normal paper file folder. When keeping the original, I do not change the folder name from its default. Should I have to dig out the original for any reason, I can manually execute a binary search on my chronologically sorted file folder(s). I have been using this system for a few weeks now, and it has worked great so far. Its main design goal was not simplicity of implementation, but simplicity of use: it has to be so simple (and require as few decisions as possible) to file something that I actually do it instead of postponing it. The system actually evolved along with the aforementioned shell script for scanning while I was scanning and filing about 20 exercise sheets (about four to twelve pages each) from the last semester to access them conveniently when preparing for the exams. I also noticed a while ago that very long org files become less intimidating once you learn to love C-x n s (org-narrow-to-subtree), which helped with my decision for one big file over many small ones. One big file also avoids cluttering the buffer list. - Jan, who really should start a blog to do more detailed write-ups of this and similar things, because they are so much fun to write. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

I'm new and open to other better ways. I saw Carsten's presentation (not the Google Tech talk one) and am somewhat against the idea of a huge, long file. I guess if you can collapse it enough it's fine... but it just doesn't feel right. I love my current method of just keeping a journal entry per day and letting my TiddlyWiki code automatically update the project pages accordingly. Starting with a way to replicate that functionality as well as adding in the todos all in one place would hook me on org-mode for sure. I also rejected the idea of one long file until recently, when I realized that you do not have to navigate that huge file manually. Nowadays, I have two big org files: projects.org (actionable things) and reference.org (nonactionable things). In my day-to-day usage, I do some edits (changing TODO state and tags, killing an entry) directly from the agenda; for others, I press ENTER or TAB in the agenda to jump to the entry. I used to have a separate file for each project, because I liked to only see and edit one project at a time, and the agenda also displays the file name before each TODO entry. However, I learned that you can get the benefits of lots of small files with one big file, without having to come up with a file name and adding a new file to org-agenda-files for each project (and ending up with dozens of open buffers): To change the text that the agenda displays before an entry, set the CATEGORY property. To only see and the project you currently care about, use C-x n s (org-narrow-to-subtree); when you want to see the whole file again, use C-x n w (widen). Best regards, John P.S. I was not sure what to search for in order to find out if there was an implementation for this. I read under the manual about linking and did some various searches regarding 'wiki-like' behavior for org-mode (as this felt like what I'm perhaps trying to do), but nothing really seemed to apply to this; mainly, nothing about having two 'snippets' mutually update one another. The general approach in Org seems to be that every piece of information is stored in one place, then you use the agenda to slice and dice it according to your needs. I guess you could keep one chronological journal file and define an agenda view for each project, but it should be much easier to keep each project in a separate subtree (or file), because the chronological agenda view is already there. I took a look at my git repository: I have been using org-mode for about ten months now; the system in its current state is much younger. Try using org for some time, and experience the ability to customize it to your needs. It also helped me a lot to read through the whole manual at least once (without understanding everything), to get a general idea of what is possible. There is also a lot of information to be found on worg or in the archives of this mailing list, and of course in the documentation strings of all those variables.

For evince, I think I have found a problem in the parsing of the link.
Evince already encodes
the URL, but it does not encode the '/', hence you will get a link like this:
emacsclient

the filename is /tmp/00áéíóú.pdf
But emacs incorrectly stops parsing the link after tmp/
I think I have found the proper way to handle this in evince.
Check out the attached patch or pull from:
git://github.com/jboecker/evince.git
This code first retrieves the non-URI-encoded UTF-8 filename and passes
that to uri_encode. Should g_file_get_path return NULL, we abort,
because the URI specifies something in gnomes VFS layer that has no
local path, so the link would not work, anyway.
By the way, xournal now supports store-link
Works as advertised, thanks!
The only problem I have left now is a cosmetic one: when I store a link
to, say, /tmp/test.xoj, in Org it becomes file://tmp/test.xoj instead of
file:/tmp/test.xoj. (I have patched xournal and evince to generate file:
instead of docview: links.)
This is because org-protocol-sanitize-uri is called after decoding the
string, allegedly because emacsclient compresses multiple slashes in a
row to one. However, it seems that this function should be applied
/before/ the string is URL-decoded. Is this a bug?

[Orgmode] Re: org-protocol: non-ASCII characters
I have been looking around and I am not sure how to solve this
problem. Withing Evince and Xournal I am encoding any non alphanum (as
defined by the C macro) each byte that is contained in the filename
individually.
Does anybody know which are the characters above 0 (zero) that need to
be encoded for a safe org link?
AFAIK, your current approach is correct.
I think I figured it out for evince: the file name you get from evince
is already URI-encoded.
The attached patch fixes the problem for me, but I do not know if it is
the right thing to do. I assume that the forward slashes in the file
name still have to be encoded so that org-protocol is not confused; the
patch disables URI-encoding for percent signs, so that already
URI-encoded characters pass through unharmed.

The patch works for me, but as in your patch for xournal, there is a problem with non-ASCII characters. An ü arrives in emacs as %C3%BC, which are the two URL-encoded bytes which make up the character in UTF-8. I don't know if this one is a bug in org-protocol, though, because AFAIK unix filenames are just a bunch of bytes and evince might not be able to find out what the encoding is supposed to be. I tried to pass the text selection to remember, but it does not work (org-protocol://remember://docview:filename::pagenumber::selection). Looking at the code of org-docview.el I can see that its code does not support splitting the selection. I suspect this is a minor change required. Any suggestions on how to change it? As I already indicated in the Protocol for PDFs thread, I realized that docview: is just a syntax for specialized file: links. Take a look at the following patch I posted to the mailing list two weeks ago: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/21474 This allows you to define customized file: links. These are some entries from my org-file-apps variable: Extension: \.pdf\' Command: evince %s Extension: \.pdf::\([0-9]+\)\' Command: evince -p %1 $s Extension: \.xoj\' Command: /home/jan/.local/bin/xournal %s Extension: \.xoj::\([0-9]+\)\' Command: /home/jan/.local/bin/xournal -p %1 %s This allows me to link to PDFs and Xournal files using normal file: links, both with and without page numbers. You could easily define a custom regexp which captures the page number and the selection with groups, then uses them in a command as %1 and %2. You can also use the groups in custom lisp forms, like this: Extension: \.pdf::\(.*\)::\(.*\)\' Lisp form: (progn (message (concat Page Number: (match-string 1 link))) (message (concat Selection: (match-string 2 link))) (message (concat File Name: file))) HTH, Jan ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

I guess it's possible to change some variable in order to let Org recognize
the bold parametrization.
Play around with the variable org-emphasis-regex-components.
For example, try changing Allowed chars in post from - .,:!?;'\)}\\
to a-z-.,:!?;'\)}\\.
If you want to know the regex Org constructs from this variable and
org-emphasis-alist:
M-: org-emph-re RET
Is it bad doing so?
I don't know, but I guess if there is a customization option, it is
intended to be customizable :)
If yes, I guess I can BIND the var just to do that in *that* document?
There seems to be a general feature of Emacs that lets you do that:

[Orgmode] [PATCH] Allow regexps in org-file-apps to capture link parameters using groups
What is this? = This patch changes the way extension regexps in `org-file-apps' are handled. Instead of against the file name, the regexps are now matched against the whole link, and you can use grouping to extract link parameters which you can then use in a command string to be executed. For example, to allow linking to PDF files using the syntax file:/doc.pdf::page number, you can add the following entry to org-file-apps: Extension: \.pdf::\([0-9]+\)\' Command: evince %s -p %1 In a command string to be executed, the parameters can be referenced using %1, %2, etc. Lisp forms can access them using (string-match n link). Where to get it? Either apply the patch by hand or git pull git://github.com/jboecker/org-mode.git org-file-apps-parameters What's next? / Feedback === - Find the bugs. Since this messes with links, a central concept of Org, I probably have missed some edge cases; so please test this and report if it works for you. I also appreciate any feedback on code quality or the design decisions made. I am learning elisp along the way, so you may be able to write some changes in a more idiomatic and/or elegant way. - Add a mechanism for org-mode modules to add default values to org-file-apps, similar to the variables org-file-apps-defaults-*. This could be used by modules to define their own extensions to the syntax of file: links. - Modify org-docview.el to use this and deprecate the docview: link syntax. What does it (intentionally) break? === This patch introduces a backwards-incompatible change. If LINE or SEARCH is given, the file is no longer guaranteed to open in emacs: if IN-EMACS is nil and an entry in org-file-apps matches, that takes precedence. A grep of the lisp/ and contrib/ directories showed that no code in the org-mode distribution was relying on this behaviour; whereever LINE or SEARCH is given, IN-EMACS is also set to t. I decided against adding an additional parameter because that would be redundant; the original link as seen by org-open-at-point can be reconstructed from PATH, LINE and SEARCH. I am not that sure if this is the right way to do this, but it seems to break as little as possible while hopefully avoiding to add too much complexity. --- lisp/ChangeLog | 10 ++ lisp/org.el| 56 +--- 2 files changed, 55 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/lisp/ChangeLog b/lisp/ChangeLog index 3f46f3c..c4605bd 100755 --- a/lisp/ChangeLog +++ b/lisp/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,13 @@ +2010-01-16 Jan Böcker jan.boec...@jboecker.de + + * org.el (org-open-file): Allow regular expressions in + org-file-apps to capture link parameters using groups.

Re: [Orgmode] RFC: Syntax for page numbers in file: links?
I am not sure if it makes sense to handle more that a page number, really. I have thought about this again and concluded that the approach in my first post is, indeed, over-engineered. I also believe the approach proposed in this post to be flexible enough to handle some extensions. On 05.01.2010 13:32, Carsten Dominik wrote: I have yesterday implemented modifies for file link: file+sys: now forces opening a file with the system's open command file+emacs: forces opening in Emacs. I guess it would make sense to make more of these, so that one could select a specific viewer for selected files, what do you think? The method of opening a file should not be specified in the link itself, unless it makes sense to change it for an individual link. Imagine two users exchanging org files, where one likes to open PDFs with evince and the other prefers doc-view-mode. However, this would be useful for links to file types which org-mode does not know anything about; the user would not have to tell org-mode about them by modifying org-file-apps first. Maybe this should not force the opening method, but provide the default if org-file-apps has nothing to say? - org-file-apps should allow to specify how to pass a page number to an external program. Unlike the file name, this is an optional argument, as a link may not specify a page number at all. I do not know how to do this in an elegant way, maybe let the user specify multiple entries - one for links with a page number, one for links without. This is not easy at all, but I am sure it can be done. org-file-apps already allows matching regular expressions against the file name. I propose the following changes: - match the regular expressions against the whole link - if the matching regex used grouping, in addition to replacing %s with the file name in a command string, replace %1 with the first match, %2 with the second, etc. - if the org-file-apps entry specifies a lisp form to be evaluated, make the group matches available to the lisp form being evaluated. - org-docview.el would only handle org-store-link functionality and generate links such as file:path::page. With these changes, the following sample entries in org-file-apps could then specify the method of how to open links to PDF files with and without page number specifications. Open PDFs in evince: regex: \.pdf\' command:evince %s regex: \.pdf::\(\d+\)\' command:evince %s -p %1 Open PDFs in doc-view-mode: regex: \.pdf\' visit in emacs regex: \.pdf::\(\d+\)\' lisp form: (progn (org-open-file file 1) (docview-goto-page (match-string 1 link))) The lisp form in the last entry could go into org-docview.el as a convenience function. We would also need a way for org-docview.el to supply default entries for org-file-apps, maybe a variable org-file-apps-defaults-alist or something. AFAIK, this approach would be backwards-compatible with current org-file-apps entries, which typically match an extension at the end of the string and specify a command to open the file with, which gets passed the file name via %s. If the link specifies arguments, the current entries would no longer match, but they cannot handle arguments anyway. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] RFC: Syntax for page numbers in file: links?
Hello List, During the discussion in the protocol for PDFs? thread, I realized that docview: links are an almost exact copy of file: links, the only single difference being that file: takes a line number and docview: links take a page number. Up until now, (docview:) links to PDF files have been the only link type known to me which took a page number. With the upcoming integration of Xournal and Org that Daniel M. German is working on, there will already be two of those. Daniel also wants to add org-store-link functionality to evince, so he needs a link type with page numbers for PDFs, too. I could (and have in a proof-of-concept version) modify org-docview.el to open PDFs with an external viewer, but I think what really should happen is the following: - We need a syntax to specify an (optional) page number for file: links, and make the line number optional as well. This might look something like this: - file:path[:page][::line] - file:~/some-file.txt::23some-file.txt, line 23 - file:~/document.pdf:4 document.pdf, page 4 - file:~/document.odf:3::5document.odf, page 3, line 5 This is only what comes to my mind immediately about one possibility of encoding this. - org-docview-store-link should return links in the new syntax (e.g. file:~/some-doc.pdf:5 instead of docview:~/some-doc.pdf::5) - the same syntax could also be used to integrate evince and Xournal - org-file-apps should allow to specify how to pass a page number to an external program. Unlike the file name, this is an optional argument, as a link may not specify a page number at all. I do not know how to do this in an elegant way, maybe let the user specify multiple entries - one for links with a page number, one for links without. - the same should apply to line numbers - maybe someone will integrate Org with Open Office or some heretic wants to open all text files in zile, who knows? - if a link with a page number is opened, org-file-apps specifies Visit with Emacs, and emacs decides to open it in doc-view-mode, doc-view-goto-page should be called with the page number. (I imagine this would be possible using the right hooks?) - Line number and page number also seem somewhat arbitrary as the only pieces of data available to point to a specific location inside a document. There are HTML fragment identifiers, which AFAIK work in http: links but do not in file: links. One might also imagine specifying a precise position in a PDF using a line number and a percentage to indicate how far the page should be scrolled down. So if it is feasible at all, we might want an even more general syntax to specify a target location, maybe attributes such as [[file:/path/to/file][page=5,line=3][Description]] [[file:notes.txt][search=The quick brown fox][Description]] This may obviously create more problems with backward compatibility. Luckily, there has been no release featuring docview: links yet, so there still is a chance to correct this mistake without breaking too much. If there will be no special syntax for page numbers, we could also interpret the line number as a page number for PDF and Xournal files, but that number would still need to be passed to an external application and cause doc-view-goto-page to be called when visiting a PDF in emacs. I really do not want to create another file: link type with org-docview.el, which is why I ask y'all to comment! - Jan ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Organizing a students live
I study computer science in the first semester. I have one org file dedicated to university (~/org/studium.org). In this org file, there will be one top-level heading for each semester (currently there is only one - Wintersemster 09/10 [2009-10-01 Do]--[2010-03-31 Mi]). You see that I added the beginning and end of the semester as inactive timestamps. Under the heading for the semester, I have one subtree for general information such as vacation periods (denoted as a timespan: 2009-12-21 Mo--2010-01-03 Sa), examens and links to the websites of my classes (to download the homework for the week). Following that, I have a subtree for each calendar week, which looks like this: ** Week 48 from [2009-11-23 Mo] to [2009-11-29 So] Class 1 General information about this week's curriculum sometimes goes here. ** Class 1 Lecture 2009-11-23 Mo 16:00 [Link to the slides used in this lecture] Class notes for the first lecture of the week go here. When I did not type it directly in org-mode (with the view narrowed to this subtree), there will be a link to the hand-written notes (I use Xournal on a Tablet PC), to some scanned image of paper, or at least a reference to the script to tell me where in the curriculum we left off. ** Class 1 Lecture 2009-11-25 Mi 16:00 Class notes for the second one go here. ** TODO Class 1 Homework [Link to Homework PDF] [Link to my solution of the exercises (Xournal)] When this homework has been graded the following week, (a link to) the notes I took on exercises I had made mistakes in will go here. Class 2 (repeat the same structure for the other classes) At the end of this org file, there is a subtree named Future, where the entries for the next weeks are ready to be moved to the end of the main tree. You can generate this fairly quickly if you create one template subtree and then use M-x org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift repeatedly to create a copy with all timestamps shifted one week forward. This system works very well for me so far. I have a folder structure similar to the subtree structure on disk (~/uni/semester/calendar-week/class[/homework]) where I store all the files I link to. This way, I can be sure that if I take ~/org/ and ~/uni/ with me, I have all of my most important data. I do not use repeating timestamps because having a separate subtree for each occurence of a lecture enables me to jump to the appropriate notes, etc. right from my agenda view. I have also tagged the nodes below each week by class and by type (Lecture, Exercise), so I could do queries like show me all Lecture notes for Class 1, but so far I have not needed that. However, it does not hurt to have it in the template, I might use it later. Of course, the Homework entry gets assigned a DEADLINE when I download the exercise .pdf and add the link. I hope the above text is comprehensible enough; if there are any questions, feel free to ask! I would also be interested in how other students use Org. If it were not for org-mode, my class notes would be in a messy pile of paper instead of a few keystrokes away...

[Orgmode] [ANN] org-docview.el - Link to PDF files from org-mode
Hello, the new doc-view-mode in emacs 23 can be used to view DVI, PDF and PostScript files. I have written a custom link type for org-mode to allow linking to those files from org-mode. This is the first thing besides .emacs customization that I have written in elisp; as such, any feedback would be much appreciated. I have only tested it with PDF files so far, but it should work with anything doc-view-mode can display. The attached file adds support for org-store-link inside doc-view-mode buffers. The link syntax is: docview:/path/to/file.pdf:page where page is the page number to visit. To use it, copy it to your load path as org-docview.el and add (require 'org-docview) to your .emacs file. I'd also like to suggest to integrate this functionality into the standard org-mode distribution, as emacs 23 includes doc-view-mode by default. I am releasing the code under the terms of the GNU General Public License, Version 3 or later.
