[O] Inheriting Properties
Hi, I'm a new org-mode user and I'm just starting to use it in a real way. One feature that seems to be missing is the ability to specify properties on a parent-node that are inherited by the children, but is not applied to the parent itself. An example of where you might need this is: * Servers :PROPERTIES: :COLUMNS: %25ITEM %ip :END ** foo.example.com :PROPERTIES: :ip:x.x.x.x :END ** bar.example.com :PROPERTIES: :ip:x.x.x.x :END If there was a way to apply the root properties to the children but not the parent itself, then column mode would work as expected but would not apply the columns specification to the Servers node where it is not relevant. As it is now, each child-entry needs it's own column specification.

Personally I use the agenda view with log mode enabled for clock lines and limited to some interesting tags and a summary report with C-u R. I then manually transfer the data to another system for timesheet reporting. I just visit each day in the timesheet range to get the details I want. You can generate daily reports with something like this #+BEGIN: clocktable :maxlevel 2 :scope agenda :fileskip0 t :step day :block thisweek #+END: which gives a separate table per day but it doesn't include the time details. I see, thank you for the answer. I might end up using a second system for this too, this time. Maybe I’ll try writing something to produce these tables in a few days, by hacking together bits from the clock table. Aankhen
[O] [PATCH] alt for inline thumbnail
Hi,
Here's a patch to add the following syntax for image link in html

[O] Tools for working with Zotero and OrgMode
Hi,
1) Zotero-BibLaTeXToClipBoard-Firefox-module
I just started a new module for firefox, allowing one user to copy in
the clipboard bibtex elements for the current selection inside Zotero.
You just have to paste it to your bibtex file.
https://github.com/bjonnh/Zotero-BibLaTeXToClipBoard-Firefox-module
You would need this also as this module is based on this translator:
https://code.google.com/p/zotero-biblatex-export/
2) Zotero biblatex citation export
This should be inserted shortly in the zotero-biblatex-export repo. But
you can find it there for the moment :
http://www.bjonnh.net/BibLaTeX-cite.js
You just have to copy this one and the previous one (from the google
repo) inside your Zotero translators directory.
Using this and configuring Zotero to use it, I'm able to drag and drop
from Zotero to my Org document (or LaTeX) directly (it inserts
\cite{citationkey})
Hope it can help some of you.

This is really a bug in your university's style. Lamport (p.21 of the
second edition) says:
The \maketitle command comes after the \begin{document}, usually
before any other text. The \title, \author, and \date commands can
come *anywhere* before the \maketitle.
[Emphasis added] \title etc. does not have to be in the
preamble. However, there are many styles out there that restrict the
placement of these macros to the preamble, just as your university's
style does (they probably cribbed from each other :-) ), so applying
Lawrence's patch is probably the best long term solution for org.

Hi all,
I hate to bring this up again, but this problem is still not sufficiently
fixed. As Nick pointed out, different packages give error
messages depending on where the \title, \author,... tags are located
in the document. Luck has it, that the revtex4-1 package (which is
used as the default style for the American Physical Society's
journals) chokes when these tags are _outside_ the document body (i.e.
in the preamble). This is actually why the OP experienced problems in
the first place, as I submitted a patch to move them there a couple of
months ago (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/34208). I just
noticed yesterday that the patch has been undone.
As this will not be the last time this issue comes up (especially due
to the increasing popularity of org-mode), I think it would be
worthwhile to do it right and introduce the possibility to customize
the placement of the title tags. Two possibilities came to my mind:
- customization on a per class basis
This would be the most logical step, but I think that the way
configuration of latex classes is handled in org speaks against that
(as org-export-latex-classes only concerns the preamble, but not the document
body)
- customization on a per file basis by setting options
I think this would be a feasible alternative from the usability point
of view. At the same time I have to admit that I have no clue if it is a
complicated matter to introduce new options in org, a quick look
through the code didn't give me any inside.
What do you all think?
Cheers,
Sebastian

(i.e., modules that contain the name of another emacs package) are conventionally reserved for hyperlinks. I have no idea whether this is a fixed convention, but we might want to ask Bastien or Carsten. I know the linking features would be untouched by the addition of this new functionality, but I wonder whether org - bibtex conversion occupies a distinct space. I can see now how the variables org-bibtex-types and org-bibtex-fields are a major improvement over bibtex-entry-field-alist, which contains a whole bunch of redundant field descriptions.

Re: [O] particular capture method for a diet .. ?
So I've been meaning to put something up on this in worg for a while. I've been dieting using orgmode, basic calorie tracking, and something resembling the ideas out of The Hacker's Diet for the last year (actually 2.5 years with a 1.5 year break in which I continued to weigh in mostly but didn't follow my calorie goals ;)) and have lost 60 pounds so far (originally was 275, not all that's recorded in my files during the first few weeks of dieting, anyway at 210 now), going from morbidly obese to just overweight, and I'm still losing weight (soon enough, being a fat guy will be far behind me). Here's the org-babel generated gnuplot graphs to show it (regenerated and pushed to my site every morning): http://dustycloud.org/tmp/weight.png http://dustycloud.org/tmp/weight_month.png Here's a screenshot: http://dustycloud.org/tmp/org-diet2.png Roughly in the terrible amount of hacks that compose org-diet I've wrapped together these ideas/tools: - calorie tracking - recipe calorie calculation - weigh-in via org-capture - calorie clocking (clock out at the end of the day to verify you've got accurate numbers for that day) - habit tracking of whether you've met your calorie goals - weight graphing with 10 day moving averaging to remove some of the noise from a daily weigh in/out - bmi calculation - a really shitty calories-per-day-to-lose-to-meet-your-goals estimator It's really nothing complex, and mostly it's not software, just a methedology with a *slight* amount of poorly written software in elisp and org-babel, but the system works great. I planned after meeting my diet goals (hitting normal weight) that I'd release the whole thing (including my present diet file for reference) under GPLv3, document it in worg, and put my own diet file out there under CC0, but maybe I should do it sooner... problem is I don't have time presently while trying to work on http://mediagoblin.org on weekends to make a proper release, but I could at least bundle together everything you need to have a full system using my hacks for now if you want, with really terrible but usable documentation, without taking up too much time. :) Interested? I could probably throw together a terrible tarball this weekend if you want to use it and post it to the list. One thing that's clear from the diet I've collected: whenever I've followed the system, without fail, I've lost weight. When I've deviated I've stayed level or I've gained weight (the no-movement middle of the diet graph I linked to). Follow the system, use habit tracking and stuff, stick to your calorie goals (I shoot for a lower occasional-goal of 1300 calories and an absolute minimum goal of 1600 calories), and it *fucking works* without any support of the bullshit diet industry. I've heard a few people saying they have interest in the stuff I have so maybe I should just do that crappy release for now; better than nothing?

On Fri, Apr 22 2011, Christopher Allan Webber wrote: So I've been meaning to put something up on this in worg for a while. I've been dieting using orgmode, basic calorie tracking, and something resembling the ideas out of The Hacker's Diet for the last year (actually 2.5 years with a 1.5 year break in which I continued to weigh in mostly but didn't follow my calorie goals ;)) and have lost 60 pounds so far (originally was 275, not all that's recorded in my files during the first few weeks of dieting, anyway at 210 now), going from morbidly obese to just overweight, and I'm still losing weight (soon enough, being a fat guy will be far behind me). Here's the org-babel generated gnuplot graphs to show it (regenerated and pushed to my site every morning): http://dustycloud.org/tmp/weight.png http://dustycloud.org/tmp/weight_month.png Congratulations! I have been doing something similar for just over a year. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of using Simple Emacs Spreadsheets for my spreadsheets (I didn't really know about org-mode when I started). This means my spreadsheets can hold about a month's worth of data before they become too big to be usable. I switched my weight spreadsheet into org a while back so that I could use gnuplot to make graphs, but my food log is still in SES. Here's a screenshot: http://dustycloud.org/tmp/org-diet2.png Roughly in the terrible amount of hacks that compose org-diet I've wrapped together these ideas/tools: - calorie tracking - recipe calorie calculation - weigh-in via org-capture - calorie clocking (clock out at the end of the day to verify you've got accurate numbers for that day) - habit tracking of whether you've met your calorie goals - weight graphing with 10 day moving averaging to remove some of the noise from a daily weigh in/out - bmi calculation - a really shitty calories-per-day-to-lose-to-meet-your-goals estimator It's really nothing complex, and mostly it's not software, just a methedology with a *slight* amount of poorly written software in elisp and org-babel, but the system works great. It sounds more feature complete than what I am currently using, and I actually *like* what I am using. I planned after meeting my diet goals (hitting normal weight) that I'd release the whole thing (including my present diet file for reference) under GPLv3, document it in worg, and put my own diet file out there under CC0, but maybe I should do it sooner... problem is I don't have time presently while trying to work on http://mediagoblin.org on weekends to make a proper release, but I could at least bundle together everything you need to have a full system using my hacks for now if you want, with really terrible but usable documentation, without taking up too much time. :) Interested? I could probably throw together a terrible tarball this weekend if you want to use it and post it to the list. One thing that's clear from the diet I've collected: whenever I've followed the system, without fail, I've lost weight. When I've deviated I've stayed level or I've gained weight (the no-movement middle of the diet graph I linked to). Follow the system, use habit tracking and stuff, stick to your calorie goals (I shoot for a lower occasional-goal of 1300 calories and an absolute minimum goal of 1600 calories), and it *fucking works* without any support of the bullshit diet industry. I've heard a few people saying they have interest in the stuff I have so maybe I should just do that crappy release for now; better than nothing? I would at least be interested in taking a look at it. No promises, of course, but if I ended up using it, I would at least be willing to help you package (and possibly document) what you have. Hopefully being useful while making embarassing admissions about my body, - cwebb There is nothing embarrassing about losing over 60 pounds. The mediagoblin.org thing looks interesting as well. Jason
Re: [O] NEW auto dimension tables doesn\\\'t work in orgtbl Text mode
Thanks for suggestion. Customization of org-mode is still bit tricky to me.. BTW what a surprize..before I get your response I watched video from your presentation about org-mode from 2008 :) Sebastian
[O] Bug: HTML blocks in macros called before lists break in 7.5
Sample code:
-
#+MACRO: start #+BEGIN_HTML\n mydiv \n#+END_HTML
#+MACRO: end #+BEGIN_HTML\n /mydiv \n#+END_HTML
* Hello world
{{{start}}}
1. Item 1
{{{end}}}
---
Expected HTML export (valid HTML):
--
mydiv
olliItem 1/li/ol
/mydiv
---
Actual HTML export (invalid HTML):
---
mydiv
olliItem 1/mydiv
/li/ol
OK, so the example is a bit contrived. But that's basically the technique that
I use to style lists. (It may not be the best but for complex START/END macros,
using HTML blocks is the way to go.)
Anyway, the above code worked fine in 7.4. Then I upgraded to 7.5 and I now
have literally hundreds of these broken lists.
Ideas? Where would the offending org code be?
Re: [O] Using orgmode to take inline notes for research
Rasmus rasmus.p...@gmail.com writes:
It is cool but doesn't play well with margins, as you have seen. I've
given up on cool and use the following instead:
I agree on the cool not being cool. However, I do wonder why you would
want to use /ordinary/ footnotes rather than something easily removable
such as fixmenotes, e.g. \fxnote[footnote]. The great thing is they are
removed in the `final' print (i.e. when `draft' is not specified).
Sure, this would be a good thing for many to use. I don't require this
because the documents I create have (or should have) no footnotes in the
final version so any footnotes that are present are things I have to
deal with! But thanks for pointing me to this alternative.
- Some of my notes are multi paragraphs, which I prefer non-indented
and separated by a line break rather than no line break and indented.
But when exported, multiple paragraphs just stack up with no line
break. Can I add this to your format?
I use the following for empty lines. It is quite easy to adopt it
document wide and probably even inside certain environments.
\newcommand*{\tomlinje}[0]{\\[\baselineskip] \setlength{\parskip}{0pt}}
I didn't get whether you are asking for footnotes specifically, but if
this is the case you might be able to play around with
\setlength{\footparindent}{} and friends?
Will do. Did not know about \footparindent and my searches did not find
any reference to such! Thanks.

Re: [O] Show current task in taskbar
Nathan Neff nathan.n...@gmail.com writes: Hello, I use wmii which is a minimalist tiling window manager. It has a taskbar that can show text/icons, etc. I'd like to see my currently logged in task on the taskbar. The way I see it, I could either 1) poll emacs for the current task or 2) have emacs run a cron job and output the current task to a file or directly set the taskbar Has anyone done something like this? I found the External Programs section on this page: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html but didn't find anything directly. Thanks, --Nate With ratpoison, I use either conky or dzen2 to write out a status line that is outside the window manager's control. one of the things I used to do is echo the contents of a file to that status bar and that file would include the clocking information. this clocking information was generated by the following elisp code: --8---cut here---start-8--- (defun esf/org-clocking-info-to-file () (with-temp-file ~/tmp/clocking ;; (message (org-clock-get-clock-string)) (if (org-clock-is-active) (insert (format org: %d/%d min (- (org-clock-get-clocked-time) org-clock-total-time) (org-clock-get-clocked-time)) ) ) ;;(org-clock-get-clock-string) ) ) (add-hook 'display-time-hook 'esf/org-clocking-info-to-file) --8---cut here---end---8--- I haven't used this in a while so cannot guarantee it will work with org 7.5, say, but it should. It requires you to have invoked (display-time) to hook into that display and obviously something to echo the contents of the file (~/tmp/clocking in above) into your wmii status bar.

Re: [O] [PATCH] org-bibtex.el --- convert between Org headings and bibtex entries

The attached patch performs this integration adding the functionality in my version of org-bibtex.el into the Org-mode core. Does this seem like an appropriate addition? +1 (or maybe +.75 -- see below) I think this could finally tempt me to move all my bibliographical data into org-mode files. (I've been keeping all my data in a central bibtex file and using reftex to generate links to citations.) I've been testing the patch and have a few comments. 1. The prompt for the completing-read on line 440 is missing a space. It shows Type: rather than Type: . 2. In addition, since the symbols in org-bibtex-types are keywords, the completions are in the form :article, :book, etc. Might I ask why everything is org-bibtex-type is a keyword? Could we use strings or plain symbols instead? (Note: I haven't read the code carefully enough to see if there is a reason.) 3. The tooltip/help pop-up for org-bibtex-create takes up half a frame.
