[O] IMAP support for VM links in orgmode (org-vm.el)
The attached patch (relative to yesterday's state of the orgmode git repository) adds the possibility to have org-mode links to IMAP folders in VM and to messages inside IMAP folders. It requires VM 8.2.0a or later. IMAP links have the format vm-imap:account:imap-folder-name for a folder and vm-imap:account:imap-folder-name#message-id for a message. The account:imap-folder notation is the same that is used in VM when entering a folder name in the minibuffer. I ended up creating a new link type (vm-imap) instead of overloading the vm link type with some cryptic syntax. This also seems more consistent with how VM considers IMAP folders to be in a separate universe from local folders. I hope this will be useful to others! Konrad. org-vm.patch Description: Binary data

Re: [O] Custom agenda view for specific time intervals
Hi Bastien, Is there a way to create custom agenda views for specific time intervals, such as May 2011 or the month following the current month? A combination of `org-agenda-start-day' and `org-agenda-span' should do. org-agenda-start-day is exactly what I was looking for, thanks! Konrad.

The attached file implements a new link type eshell. An eshell link consists of an optional buffer name followed by a colon, and of an eshell command line. Opening the link switches to the indicated buffer, creating it if necessary, or to the default *eshell* buffer, and executes the command line exactly as if it were entered from the keyboard. Inside an eshell buffer, org-store-link stores a link that switches back to the same buffer and does a cd to the current working directory.

[Orgmode] Extended-period events in agenda views
Hello all, I have been a happy org-mode user for a while, using more and more of org-mode for more and more things. By now I have completely replaced my use of iCal (on the Mac) by the org-mode agenda, with no regrets. However, there is one feature that I am still trying to get into my agenda view, but I didn't find a way to do it yet. There are a couple of long-lasting events that I would like to show in my agenda view. A typical example would be school vacation periods, but there are others: absences of a colleague, availability of some instrument, etc, Their common feature is that they can last very long (several weeks) and that they don't really occupy my agenda. I just want to know when planning something if a given day is in period X or not. So I'd like to see at a glance (using a specific font, color, one- letter prefix etc.) if a day falls into a certain predefined period. Simply adding a corresponding event to my agenda leads to visual clutter: it gets marked on every single day of the period. Is there any way to get what I am looking for?
