[O] org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp vs org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date
Hello, I vaguely remember asking about this some time ago, but could not find that thread. It is not at all clear from the docstrings what is the difference between org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date and org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp. I did a simple experiment on my agenda and found out that org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp did not ignore entries with a repeater timestamp, while org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date did. Is that correct? If yes, could it be said in the manual? TIA, -- Marcin Borkowski http://octd.wmi.amu.edu.pl/en/Marcin_Borkowski Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science Adam Mickiewicz University

Lastly, is there a way to both use output formatting, and retain the

| km| units | conversion |

#+TBLFM: $3=uconvert($1, $2); %.2f
Ie, the ft falls off the results when I add the %.2f. Is it possible
to retain that and have formatting?
Yes, see
org-spreadsheet: formatting chops off units
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/59928
I'm certainly late to this party! My only excuse is that it's far from
obvious, given the current manual, that all this is available (even
after your documentation patch in the referenced thread).
Just to note, the second of the two formatting solutions you mentioned
(manually adding the units as a string) seems to no longer work. The
first does, however.
I'll work up a slightly longer documentation patch in the next couple of
days -- I really think people should be alerted to what's possible with
units. The uconvert defmath could even just be an example in the
manual, rather than code that ships with Org.
Here's the doc patch, hope all is in order.

You can add your own Calc functions defined in Emacs Lisp with @code{defmath}
and use them in formula syntax for Calc.
+Calc also comes with support for unit calculations, via the @code{calc-units}
+package. For a complete list of recognized units, call
+@code{calc-view-units-table}. Units can be specified with or without a space
+between the number and the unit name, eg @samp{2 ft} is the same as
+@samp{2ft}. Rates are handled automatically: multiplying @samp{3 m/s} by two
+will give @samp{6 m / s}. By default, @code{calc-units} only defines one
+units-related function for use in tables, @code{usimplify}, which can take an
+expression such as @samp{42 km / 2.5 h} and return @samp{16.8 km / hr}.
+Another useful function to define might be @code{math-convert-units}, eg:
+
+@example
+(defmath uconv (expr target-units optional pure)
+ (math-convert-units expr target-units pure))
+@end example
+
+Which would allow you to use @samp{uconv($1, ft)} to, for example, convert a
+distance specified in the cell @samp{$1} into feet. The optional 'pure
+argument strips the units designator from the number in the results.

[O] Naming of (indirect?) buffers opened by C-'
Hi I remember there was a discussion recently about the naming of the indirect buffers of source code block opened with C-' but I can't find it at the moment. Was there a solution on giving these buffers a useful name, i.e. the name of the code block? If this is included in org, it does not seem to be working for me? Thanks, Rainer -- Rainer M.

Re: [O] [bug, patch, ox] INCLUDE and footnotes
Hi, Thanks for the notes. Hopefully patch one if good now. Patch two needs tests, but I can write those if we agree to impose minlevel automatically. Nicolas Goaziou m...@nicolasgoaziou.fr writes: AFAICT, there's no reason to include a rule about whitespace separating anything. Just make sure that any INCLUDE keyword that doesn't have a :minlevel property gets one set to 1+N, where N is the current level (or 0 if at top level). Another option is to delay insertion of included files: expand them completely in different strings, then replace keywords with appropriate strings. IOW, just make sure expansion doesn't happen sequentially. OK. Solution one sounds easier. A quick attempt, without tests, is given in the second patch. I'll add patches if you agree with the easy approach. It seems to work, though I'm not sure if the matching of headlines which should have :minlevel added is robust enough. Objects can be extracted via =#+INCLUDE= using file links. It is -possible to include only the contents of the object. See manual for +possible to include only the contents of the object. Further, +footnotes are now supported when using =#+INCLUDE=. See manual for This is not quite true. Footnotes are already supported with INCLUDE keywords.

You should simply insert every footnote definition collected there, and filter out unnecessary definitions at another level (e.g., before storing it in the hash table).

[O] Word under cursor to internal link
Hello there, Is there a shortcut to change word under cursor to an internal link? Basically it is a pain trying to surround with two braces all the time! C-c C-l does not prompt me to create an internal link. Best regards, Chai
Re: [O] Word under cursor to internal link
Something like this seems to do approximately what you want: #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (defun word-to-link () (interactive) (save-excursion (let (start end word) (backward-word) (setq start (point)) (forward-word) (setq end (point)) (setq word (buffer-substring start end)) (setf (buffer-substring start end) (format [[%s]] word) #+END_SRC Chaitanya Krishna icym...@gmail.com writes: Hello there, Is there a shortcut to change word under cursor to an internal link?

[O] new org-ref repo
Hi all, I have finally put my org-ref code into its own git repo: https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref The repo includes some handy utility functions on a doi and bibtex entries. I improved the cite link menu so it has a lot of new options to open a cite link bibtex key in web of science, pubmed, google scholar and cross-ref if the corresponding bibtex entry has a doi. It is pretty nice (biased opinion of course). Hopefully I got all the dependencies in this repo correct so it will just work for you. If not, post an issue on Github, and I will work on fixing it! Thanks, -- --- John Kitchin @johnkitchin http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu
[O] Word under cursor to internal link
You can use the function below to make it. But in order to replace it rightly, you need to put you cursor inside the word or at the beginning of the word. (defun word-to-link () (interactive) (let ((word (thing-at-point 'word))) (forward-word) (kill-word -1) (insert (format [[%s]] word Hope it helps. And any improvement will be welcome.

[O] org-mode in teaching
Hi all, I wrote a blog post (http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2014/12/18/org-mode-+-Python-+-git-in-a-graduate-engineering-course/) on how I used org-mode in teaching this past fall. Short summary: All the notes, assignments, quizzes, exams, etc... were in org-mode, students did all their work in org-mode, and we did all our grading in org-mode. It was pretty awesome! Thanks everyone for an awesome community, and fantastic package in org-mode. Best wishes in the new year! -- --- John Kitchin @johnkitchin http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu
