Re: [Orgmode] Re: Creating an Ubuntu Package for org.
Whilst it's pretty easy to install org from source, I thought it might be helpful to make an Ubuntu package. Making a package may encourage more people to try org as it overcomes some hurdles in installation. Also you should automatically get up to date versions. Debian already has a separate org-mode package, currently up to date at 6.06b-1. The development release of Ubuntu currently features version 6.05-2 of that package. Good, I hadn't realised that Intrepid had included org mode as a separate package. There is a bug in the current alpha which stops it running on Virtual Box, so I haven't had a chance to look at it. So it looks as though there is nothing for me to do:) Ian. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: Showing todos with inherited tags in agenda views
Bernt Hansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Robert Goldman [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I hope that this isn't too much of an FAQ, but I searched the mailing list and couldn't find an answer (although I could find the question being asked): Is it possible to tailor the agenda view so that when it displays the TODO items it shows those todo items with their *inherited* tags? My display seems to show only the tags directly applied to the items. This isn't so great for me, since I put my TODO items in multiple files, one for each project, and put at the * Tasks level in those files a tag corresponding to the project. I'd really like to see those tags in the agenda view, so I know what project the TODOs belong to. Hi Robert, I use categories for this. I have multiple org files (normally one per project) but some files (like todo.org) are catch-all org files which have multiple categories. I set the category for a subtree using a property. All of my project tasks are level 2 tasks so they have a level 1 parent task for organizing things. Such as ,[ proj1.org ] | * Support | :PROPERTIES: | :ARCHIVE: %s_archive::* Support | :CATEGORY: PROJ1 | :END: | ** TODO First Project | ** TODO Second Project ` so all tasks in this project show up in the agenda in the 'PROJ1' category. You're free to set different categories for any subtree and I find it very flexible. This works great for me. I use this too. I would ask that the category name in the left column of the agenda view used its own face though. Is this possible? ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode

Re: [Orgmode] org-info.js - new version with tags index
Sebastian Rose wrote: Hello list, Rick Moynihan requested a table of contents sorted by tags (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2008-07/msg00434.html). The new version on http://repo.or.cz/w/Worg.git provides a the shortcut 'C' to show such an index: Tag1 - Headline with tag1 - Another headline with tag1 and tag2 Tag2 - Headline with tag2 - Another headline with tag1 and tag2 Excellent! Thanks for this, it works great! My only issue is that the tags in the table, don't look like links, or look clickable. Admitedly this only becomes an issue when others are browsing a file published with org-info.js. Also it would be handy to be able to hyperlink directly to this (and the other table of contents). There is no inheritance though. As for the most cases, the links lead to the local toc showing all subsections. Maybe inheritance should be an option? I personally don't tend to use inheritance a lot, but I can see how it could be useful. On an unrelated topic, what struck me as interesting was how similar org-info.js is to s5 (the XHTML/CSS/js) presentation format. I did mention this briefly here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/2668/focus=7656 I took a look at what would be required to re-style org-info.js/org-publish files like s5; and it looked possible but my XHTML/CSS/js skills are a little rusty. What do you think it would take to modify org-info.js into a presentation format like s5? Writing presentations in org-mode and then publishing to XHTML/org-info.js seems like a great idea, and it strikes me that org-info.js is already pretty close. I'm not entirely sure what s5 offers that this combination doesn't, but it seems to largely be around ensuring that slides are scaled to fit into the browser-window, rather than scrolling, and that the slides are styled more minimally and a little more like a powerpoint file.

Got a current buffer has no process when tried from Windows Native GNU Emacs 22.2.1 but I am sure that's something I need to correct at my end. I'll take a look and see if there are any unix-only commands being used, I have no access to windows machines so I may not be able to reproduce. A couple of questions (or feature requests): 1. How can I save the image? I think the question how to use a different device like png and have charts saved on disk. you can save the image by adding a file:path-to-image.jpg option to the #+PLOT: line above the graph, which should set gnuplot's `output' and `term' options appropriately, if you want to do fancy things you can set these values manually by adding something like the following to the #+PLOT: line set:terminal png transparent nocrop enhanced font arial 8 set:output 'my-output-file.png' 2. How to use custom labels? there is an option intended for this purpose labels:(col1 col2) which should have this effect, however I will probably need to change the way the regexp parses options first, I'll put this on my TODO list and let you know when it's working. 3. How can I pick and choose which columns to plot like in gnuplot's plot command? you select the column to serve as the dependent variable (x-axis) using the dep: command with the number of the column as the sole argument (dep:1 to use the first column). To specify which cols should be plotted use the inds: options passing a list of column numbers, like inds:(2 3) 4. How can I cycle through all tables and plot them all? I have no idea what the best method would be for cycling through tables, I agree this would be a useful feature (picturing all graphs being re-generated upon export to latex/html), however I don't know of any commands for cycling through tables. I've been thinking of defining a [[plot:]] type link which may make this easier. Also, I may be able to copy an answer from the exporting code. If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them.
