Re: [O] List all habits with consistency graph

Hi,

I was wondering how to create a list that contains all habits 
including their consistency graph. At the end of the week I want an 
overview over all of my habit entries and how consistent I have been. 
Consistency graphs are a nice for that purpose, but they are scattered 
all over my weekly (or monthly!) agenda. This makes it rather hard to 
get a concise overview.


It would be nice if orgmode could somehow show all habits in a list 
with the corresponding consistency graph next to it. It's straight 
forward to create a property search that finds and displays all 
habits, but org-mode has so far resisted my attempts at inserting 
consistency graphs into those search views.


This would be very helpful for me too.

Re: [O] Org-mode version 7.8.05 (release_7.8.05.19.gb32d.dirty) `org-agenda-filter' bug pushing to mobile

2012-03-20 Thread Nick Bell

Org-mode version 7.8.06 (release_7.8.06.31.gc7a2) from git is correct:

(defun org-mobile-push ()
  Push the current state of Org affairs to the WebDAV directory.
This will create the index file, copy all agenda files there, and also
create all custom agenda views, for upload to the mobile phone.
  (interactive)

[O] Org-mode and icicles - tags

2012-03-14 Thread Nick Bell
I find Icicles useful in most areas of emacs, but it gets in the way 
when I'm trying to complete tags. This is probably as much of an Icicles 
question as an Org one.


I do C-c C-q and see the existing tag for a heading e.g. :boring:. I 
type comp and press TAB, hoping for completion to :boring:computer:. 
Instead the existing tag boring is entirely replaced by the completed 
one computer.


If I turn off icy mode, the behaviour is as expected.

Does anyone else use Icicles and Org-mode, and if so have they found a 
way around this?


Only relevant bit from custom-set-variables:

Yes, I have, but I'd like something a bit better.

I'm trying to write a little function using before-save-hook to compare

I suppose one could do this with some kind of before-change- type

See diff-buffer-with-file.


Yes, that was the idea. I was going to hook a function into 
before-save-hook which does pipe diff -u $1 $2 | diffstat and  show the 
result in some kind of minibuffer. Not sure how to set $1 and $2 (in 
fact, I've never written any elisp at all). I don't suppose anyone could 
whip up the code in a moment or two? ;-)

[Orgmode] Format of headings spanning days in agenda day/week view

2009-08-23 Thread Nick Bell

At present they look like this:

(1/2):  John's Event 2009-09-03 Thu--2009-09-04 Fri

I would rather the 2009-09-03 Thu--2009-09-04 Fri was missed off 
entirely as it's obvious from the agenda when the dates are.


Also, I'm using custom time formats which these events spanning days 
don't seem to take with them to agenda views (but as I said I'd rather 
the days/times were missed off entirely)


Is there any way of doing this?

Thanks

Are you using a font which has a separate italic form? Try switching to 
a font which you know does, such as Courier New.

Version control is your backup and your protection against data loss.


It's *a* form of backup. Another might be more appropriate.

In my experience, putting the timestamp range on a separate line,

[Orgmode] Using SCHEDULED to indicate task start date

2009-01-26 Thread Nick Bell

Dear org-mode users and developers,

[Using 6.17 here.]

SCHEDULED nicely hides TODOs from agenda views until on/after the 
SCHEDULED date.


I'd like to hide TODOs whose SCHEDULED date is in the future from the 
global todo list (C-c a t) .


'Org Agenda Todo Ignore Scheduled' option hides all scheduled TODOs, 
including those whose scheduled date is in the past, so won't work for me.


In other words, I'd like to use SCHEDULED function as a kind of 'start 
date' for a TODO, before which it won't appear on agenda or global todo 
lists. Is this possible?


Many thanks

Nick

Bernt Hansen wrote:

No, the reason for using any of

   org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled
   org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines
   org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date

is to get those tasks off the global todo list.  They show up in your
agenda at the appropriate time and you don't need them in the global
todo list at all.

I work off my agenda first, and when that's clear then I go to the
global todo list for other tasks - and I don't want to see anything that
has a date there - since they're already set up to show up at the
appropriate time on my agenda.

You might be able to set up a column view that shows the
scheduled/deadline date and then ignore tasks with dates in the past but
I've never tried that.

HTH,
