Re: [Orgmode] dangling clock message might be incomprehensible to a few users
I also think that interface is difficult to understand. Maybe we should detail the texts for an easy one. It should express the actions in words that match the user's intention. For instance, - account some minutes to that task - set end time for that task - discard that partial clocking - do nothing and leave dangling clock Etc.

Also I think the last clock entry isn't always displayed, which makes it even harder to figure out how to answer the 'k' question. -- Friedrich Delgado Friedrichs frie...@nomaden.org TauPan on Ircnet and Freenode ;) ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] dangling clock message might be incomprehensible to a few users
A possible documentation suggestion. I restarted emacs without clocking out first and got a dangling clock query. It had no help. It did not appear in the messages buffer. Here is part of it: [(kK)p (sS)ub (C)ncl (i)gn]? ) Some users might ask: kp=? Keep? Keep what? sub=subtract what from what? cncl=cancel command? Why C only? ign=ignore what? Why i only?
