[Orgmode] Re: Handling org-file agenda dependenncies?

Mike Newman mike at newmanfamily.me.uk writes:
 
 When you use the standard commands to add/removes files from the
 agenda, it will write a definition for the variable org-agenda-files to
 the custom section of your .emacs file.

That would still mean removing every org-file in the tree manually when wanting
to make a project inactive.

 If you want to deal with trees of files, you might be better off
 removing the variable from the custom section, defining it
 yourself and updating it manually.

The questions here is... How could one define it?

I thought of a macro that I could use while in an emacs buffer.
The macro should search through the attachment directory (saved as a property)
of the headline and remove from the agenda all the *.org files that it finds.

Comments? Suggestions?

Greetings,

Re: [Orgmode] How to define TODOs within continuous text the best way?

2009-03-28 Thread Sebastian Rose

I can't think of a good way to make the TODO items inline for HTML
export, as the result is a list. Note, that the p element has to be
closed to have valid XHTML (wich means we can't use a CSS selector
`p ul' here to make it inline):

= ---8-8-8---

p Some Text...
/pul
li id=sec-1.1.1.1.1span class=todo TODO TODO/span Get the container 
br/
/li
/ul
p Some Text...

= ---8-8-8---

 Hi,

 I write some articles in Org-Mode and use the html and latex export
 function. I'm wondering about how to define TODOs within the text the
 best way. I hope my bad english lasts to explain what I mean exactly:

 I'd like to define a TODO like in the example below. When there is a
 task somewhere in my text (I want to look something up etc.) I want to
 define this task at the relevant position in my text. So I can lookup
 all TODOs using the agenda-view and jump directly to the position in my
 text.

 The problem is that a TODO is always a new heading and so it is exported
 in my html(latex)-version as a heading. I would prefer to format a TODO
 as a text box or at least to exclude it from the html(latex)-export so
 that it is only visible in org-mode - not in the exported version. But
 when I exclude the TODO so that it isn't exported anymore, not only the
 TODO itself but also the text below the TODO isn't exported until there
 is a new heading - because the TODO itself is a heading, too.

 I know that this is because Org-Mode is an outliner-mode, TODOs always
 have to be defined with a beginning *. But is there any possibility to
 solve the problem? How do you define TODOs within the text when you use
 Org-Mode as an authoring tool?

 Perhaps it is possible to define TODOs as a very deep-level heading,
 that isn't needed, like ** TODO text and change the export
 function that this level isn't exported as a heading but as a
 div-Container? Or every heading that contains TODO is not exported
 as a heading but as a div-container?

 What is the best way to handle TODOs within continuous text?

 Kind regards,
 Karl

Re: [Orgmode] How to define TODOs within continuous text the best way?

2009-03-28 Thread Karl Maihofer
Hi,

thanks for your answer!

Sebastian Rose schrieb:
 Yes, this is possible. By default only the first three levels are
 exported as headlines. Any headline that is deeper nested, is exported
 as a list item.
 
 The variable in question is
 
`org-export-headline-levels'

OK, I see. But now the text below the TODO-item is still part of the
list. So it is indented - in html.

Another idea: Why not simply use comments?

#+HTML: !--
#+LaTeX: \begin{comment}
* TODO Test
#+LaTeX: \end{comment}
#+HTML: --

I think, this should work for me.

The only problem now is to exclude the TODO from the HTML-generated
Table of Contents. Using #+EXPORT_EXCLUDE_TAGS: exclude does not work.
Perhaps a bug in the html-export?

 I have several commands like that defined (\rzidea, ...) and some
 produce a box with an icon and frame, that does not use the margin.

That looks nice. But I think this is not the right solution for me?! For
me it is important that the TODOs are recognized by Org-Mode so that I
can jump to the position within my document using the agenda. In the
exported version of the file it is no problem when the TODOs are missing.

Thanks again and
Kind regards,

Karl

[Orgmode] newline before headline

2009-03-28 Thread Eraldo Helal
I just found out that there is a newline before each headline in the recent
version of org-mode (6.24).

Is there a post explaining why this change was made?

I have troubles with that, for example:

when adding a new headline while looking at the overview...
the newline does not get made...
and therefore all the following will not have it until one changes the
behavior by making one before creating a new one again.

[Orgmode] [ANN] org-fstree: insert directory subtrees into org buffers

2009-03-28 Thread Andreas Burtzlaff
Hello everyone,

the idea is now implemented as an extension to org-mode.

Available here: http://www.burtzlaff.de/org-fstree/org-fstree.el

org-fstree inserts the filesystem subtree for a given directory.
Each file/directory is formatted as a headline, provides links back 
to all headlines that are associated with it (by containing links to the file) 
and is assigned their tags.

Usage:
  - enter a line containing #+BEGIN_FSTREE: dir into an org buffer, 
where dir is the directory, that is to be inserted.
  - while the cursor is in the line mentioned, press C-c C-c

Hope someone else than Sebastian and me finds this useful.

[Orgmode] filtering org-agenda by tag

2009-03-28 Thread shaunalynn duffy
Hey there,

I just switched to using the development version of org-mode (rather than
the synaptic package), and now have an issue with org-agenda. Whenever I
filter the agenda by tag and then refresh the agenda or move to a new view
(functionally, refreshing it) the filter is no longer applied. Internet
searching turned up the promisingly named variable
org-agenda-filter-preset, but it isn't recognized by my emacs.

I guess my questions are: Was switching to the dev version the cause of this
change? AND Is there a straightforward way to get the filter to be applied
through a reload, or is this something I should write a solution to for
myself?

Thanks a lot!

Re: [Orgmode] remember template indentation

 and it does not move when the headline does (promote|demote)
 
 Any idea how I can get my remember template to make the LOGBOOK and enter
 the creation date there while keeping the default behavior?

Intend the LOGBOOK-Drawer in your template with two spaces:

(inbox ?i * %^{topic}%i\n  :LOGBOOK:\n  - Created: %U from %a\n  :END:\n%?
inbox.org stuff)

This template creates a level two headline in inbox.org like this:

* stuff
...
** your topic
   :LOGBOOK:
   - Created timestamp from link
   :END:
your description

So the LOGBOOK-Drawer is placed exactly if it would be if created by
changing a todo state (and behaves so). The \n is a escape sequence that 
stands for RET.

 The problem is that the LOGBOOK item does not move with the headline...

 example:

 BEFORE

 AFTER

   :LOGBOOK:

 It does when created by changing to state
 But I did also find out that this is a general problem! (not remember only)

 It works like this:
 If there is a description text, it does not move with the headline.
 If there is no description text, it does move along with the headline.

 Any suggestions how to solve this?

You need to indent all of the text under the headline for the indents to
change

If any of the text is indented _less_ than the heading level then
changing indents is disabled IIRC.

Changed that variable... works great again.

I remember reading about a setting to auto-indent description text.

I find this useful! Thans for putting this in elisp.


Some additions I could thing of:

  * a customizable list of directory names to skip.
'(CVS _MTN .git .hg RCS) might be a good default.

  * Add directory names to the skip list

#+begin fstree -sd (nogo notes)

  * Skip files by suffix

#+begin fstree -sf (.jpg .gif ...)

  * Maybe require the option `-r' to be recursive.
Files are often grouped in directories for a purpose. If I jott down
some notes it would be great to just add files in that one directory
that contains files related to the sections content.

  * Add a slash to the directory names to make the list more
readable. As an alternative, I could imagine to use folder icons
like speedbar, or use headlines without links for directories (the
links all look the same, wether they are headlines or leaves).
