[Orgmode] newbie's one-week report
I've been immersed in org-mode for a week now and I'm deeply impressed. - I *feel* more in charge of my todo list - I'm making better progress on projects and tracking that progress better - org-mode actively helps me organize my thoughts and notes into orderly brain dumps and data piles that are easy to navigate and understand - TODOs go right there among my brain dumps! - my manager likes org-mode's html exports of my project pages (I'm using a slightly modified version of http://orgmode.org/worg/worg.css) - it was ludicrously easy to adapt my work setup for home, where I now keep track of Important Stuff and check my agenda daily Many thanks to Carsten and the org gang, bw -- Bill White . bi...@wolfram.com . http://members.wolfram.com/billw No ma'am, we're musicians. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] sorting and merging files
I've gotten into a bit of a bind on sorting. A little explanation: I've been working at keeping the ~/org directory of three machines syncronized through a master repo on a USB flash drive. I've made a bit of progress, and for simple updates, it is basically working. I still don't grok merging conflicts. I've finally ended up with a file with duplicates of entries, so I thought of concatenating files, then sorting these entries. Each entry has a date (made from a remember template), so sorting by date makes sense. Ideally, one should be able to do this, and then sort with C-u C-u C-c^. I've tried this several times, and gotten bitten almost every time. I guess the dates can only be sorted as text. And duplicates are not removed. I read the manual, but little help was gotten there. What do I need to know to make sorting work, and what I might be doing wrong? Thanks for previous suggestions.

I have latest org-choose loaded, org-mode restarted, and local setup refreshed. 1. S-right on the second item to switch it to CHOSEN state. It works. 2. Now S-right on the first item to switch it to CHOSEN state. Also works. Both entries stay at CHOSEN state whereas I expected the second entry to switch to a NON-CHOSEN state (possibly switching just one state backwards not all the way back to REJECTED, but then I do not yet understand it fully.) Is this the right behaviour? If yes, please help me understand this a little. Or could I be doing or have something wrong in my setup? That's not right the behavior, but again I can't seem to reproduce this. Using your test file and following your instructions, I get the correct behavior. Specifically, after S-right on second item: [begin] * Which editor to use? *** NOT_CHOSEN Emacs *** CHOSEN Vim *** NOT_CHOSEN Textmate *** REJECTED Gedit *** REJECTED Textpad [end] Then after S-right on the first item, again correctly: [begin] * Which editor to use? *** MAYBE Emacs *** LEANING_TOWARDS Vim *** NOT_CHOSEN Textmate *** REJECTED Gedit *** REJECTED Textpad [end] Now there's clearly something different between my setup and yours that it causing a bug, but it's very difficult to diagnose and fix at a distance. I have a theory that it's caused by an unloaded library whose absence makes `org-map-entries' abort. What I'm going to try is to add a require for org-agenda. Will you try it and tell me whether it fixes the bug? Because I just can't see the bug in my setup. I didn't know if you meant to send me a patch or try something myself. I do not know any elisp but I interpreted your statement to mean something like the following patch and tried but without success.

It contains two intended fixes: * `eval-after-load' gets a string argument. Apparently some emacsen can accept a symbol, but older ones can't. * org-agenda is required before `org-map-entries' is called. This is admittedly a quick and dirty fix, if it even works. I saw this email just a moment after responding to the other thread. No, it did not work. I restarted Emacs and loaded org-choose.el both using load-library and load-file (in case that makes a difference.)

I would like to ask for another change to help with syncing: please have org-save-all-org-buffers call org-id-locations-save, and load the locations in org-revert-all-org-buffers. Then ID values will be synced as well. Hmmm, you know, I think that does make sense. I added this change.

Re: [Orgmode] Feature improvement request: state change logging

Can we also include the original state in the log message? i.e.: instead of having - State DEFERRED [2009-02-11 Wed 11:38] we can have - State DEFERRED from HOLD [2009-02-11 Wed 11:38] The message will be clearer, and useful even when somebody edited the TODO keyword in place without using the org-todo command (in that case, simply looking at all the destination states in the log message does not give us the right information). This strikes me like a useful idea, in particular if you are jumping between states, or if only some states record logging info. So I have added this capability. If you are configuring the variable `org-log-note-headings', use the %S (capital S) as a place holder for the old state. 2. Can we put all of those state change history logging messages into a drawer like STATE-HIST (when the drawer is defined in org- drawers), so it is less intrusive in the file? I do like the idea to be able to put state changes into a drawer, but I do not think that making it dependent on what it is org-drawers is good. So lets use a separate variable: If you configure org-log-state-notes-into-drawer, you can get all new state changes into a drawer (sorry, no automatic wrapping of old ones). Note that putting state log into a drawer will remove it from export. If you want to export state changes, try #+OPTIONS: d:(LOGBOOK) Thank you for giving a thought on it. Thank you for contributing very good ideas! - Carsten ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Feature request: HTML export, TODO keyword face
Hi Wanrong,
On Feb 11, 2009, at 6:00 PM, Wanrong Lin wrote:
Hi,
Right now in the HTML export the TODO keywords have either
class=todo, or class=done. That loses all the face properties in
the original TODO keywords. I think the TODO keywords faces are
important visual aids to differentiate different types of TODO
items, so I just wonder whether it is possible to keep the faces in
the HTML.
Thank you for considering the above.
Yes, this makes sense. I now add, to each TODO keyword, an
additional class named after the keyword. For example:
span class=todo kwd-WAITINGWAITING/span
So each todo keyword gets class todo or done depending on which
general type it is. And in addition it gets itself, prefixed with
kdw-, as class.
So go to your CSS file and configure like this:
.todo { font-weight:bold; }
.done { font-weight:bold; }
.TODO { color:red; }
.WAITING { color:orange; }
.DONE { color:green; }
Thanks to Sebastian Rose for the multiple-classes trick.
