[O] Suggestion: Stackoverflow for Orgmode
Hello, I have been using Orgmode for the last two years. In fact, I started learning Emacs only to use orgmode (btw: a huge thank you to Carsten and the other contributors!). I noticed that - as more people with a diverse range of background knowledge start to use orgmode - the mailing list is getting more and more difficult to navigate: a lot of threads are long and winding and many of the posts are basic questions from beginners and questions about special use cases or scenarios from more experienced users. Long story short: Orgmode is in itself so complex and powerful and its use cases and the demands of its users are so diverse that I think we need a better method of getting quickly to the answer. To clarify: the manual, worg and the mailing list are superb! I just think we could speed up things, especially for new users. This could also attract new users and make the mailing list a bit leaner in the end. An idea: Many of you may be familiar with the QA-Sites www.stackoverflow.com or www.superuser.com. This is pretty much what I have in mind. The closest to Orgmode is maybe http://tex.stackexchange.com which is the same concept for a similarly large and powerful system, LaTeX. The biggest advantage, IMO, is the aspect of self-organization: Good questions get upvoted and attract better answers. Good can mean anything here: a fundamental / innovative / original / detailed / effective question. Questions and answers can be tagged. Contributors are rewarded with badges. New users will find basic answers without extended searches and experienced users can discuss about new and interesting problems basically in realtime. And: Good solutions, once they are found, don't get buried in long threads. It is hard to explain it this way: just have a look at http://tex.stackexchange.com and try to find the answers to a simple and to a more obscure problem in LaTeX: No matter what your level of knowledge is, you will get to the solution very quickly. My proposal: could we have something like this for Orgmode as well? There are basically 4 viable options, IMO: 1. Hosted by stackexchange: Stackexchange is commercial, but they host a dedicated QA-Site if it attracts enough interest in their sandbox: http://area51.stackexchange.com We could propose an Orgmode-stackexchange site to them and then vote for it. This may take some time, if it happens at all. 2. Hosted by shapado.com (commercial) Looks less polished but seems to work (maybe with ads?). They have a free plan http://shapado.com/plans (at the bottom of the page) 3. Self-hosted with http://askbot.org/ (FOSS and looks good) 4. Self-hosted with http://www.osqa.net (FOSS) If there is enough capacity on our server, I would suggest to try askbot (or osqa) because of the level of autonomy and independence this would give us. If we don't have the capacity, it might be worth it to set up a test site on shapado or to propose this to stackexchange. A site hosted by stackexchange might itself attract new users. What do you think?

[O] org-edit-file ?
I just thought of an idea that I wonder if someone has implemented. While writing my journal I find myself wanting to insert a graphics file, e.g. a svg file and I write *file:foo.svg* . After having written the name I enter inkscape to create the contents of the file. To do that I have to run inkscape manually and eventually doing saveas and navigate to the correct directory to save the file. So my idea is to have a a new command org-edit-file that would: - If the file does not exist, copy a skeleton file to the filename or generate the skeleton file by an emacs-function or by calling an external application. - Call the configured editor application on the new file. - If invoked with Ctrl-u , allow the user to specify what editor to run on the file, e.g. inkscape, or killustrator on svg files. Does something like this already exists? Regards, Dov

If the existing FOSS designed to fill this niche are unacceptable to our purposes we can always make our own.

I think something like SE would be fantastic, and in my opinion is a much more robust than mailing lists *once the answer is determined.* Mailing lists are great for hashing out discussions and getting input... but I think a more concrete (but still modify-able) repository would be better once a tangible outcome from the mailing list has resulted. Honestly, I don't see much difference than doing the same thing with a wiki... but SE is infinitely more fun to contribute to. I could see the benefit of SE's multiple answers format as well, since my observation on the mailing list has often been that many users do things differently. I'd be open to starting this in Area51 if there is significant interest. I don't think it's all that difficult and it's fairly self-fulfilling; if users commit/participate... it launches. If not, it won't. John Cheers, Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug, PhD (Conservation Ecology, SUN), MSc (Conservation Biology, UCT), Dipl. Phys.

Re: [O] Move to item to the bottom
[Feature suggestion] (related to what I described in the last post of this thread): Keep configuration options for an org file in a separate file. Could be: * nameoftheorgfile.conf I know it seems awkward, but I think it'd be nice if we could keep org file configurations outside of the org file, of course, as an optional feature. Now, this wouldn't be complicated to implement, I'm sure, and I could even try to hack it as part of some much needed elisp exercise. Would that make sense? Cheers, Marcelo.

Re: [O] Suggestion: Stackoverflow for Orgmode

[O] CLOCKTABLE multiply time expended by hourly rate?
Hi all, I am trying to use orgmode to bill for time. My idea is to add a column that multiplies the elapsed time column by an hourly rate. Unfortunately, the elapsed time is interpreted (I believe) as a fraction in calc, so, for example, a time of 0:58 becomes a zero. Is there a way to make the elapsed time get formatted as a decimal, or a function to convert it to a decimal, so I can multiply the time by a decimal and get teh right answer. Here is what I'm getting now, using 50 as a multiplier: | Headline | Time| | | | |---+-+---+--+---| | *Total time* | *28:09* | | | 0 | |---+-+---+--+---| | Lawsuit for Debt Against Rose Funding, LLC (1016-cv18431) | 28:09 | | | 0 | | Activities| | 28:09 | | 0 | | DONE Activity Log | | | 0:05 | 0 | | DONE Draft Complaint for Damages | | | 5:40 | 25:4 | | DONE Meet with Kevin Jones and Elizabeth Bennett re Complaint | | | 0:32 | 0 | | DONE [#A] Motion for Appointment of Private Process Server| | | 1:24 | 25:12 | | DONE [#A] File Affidavit of Service with Court| | | 0:25 | 0 | | [2010-07-27 Tue 11:16] Phone call from Mark Sheister | | | 0:11 | 0 | | Research regarding compulsory counterclaim, res judicata | | | 1:23 | 50:23 | | Work on brief in opposition to motion to dismiss. | | | 3:03 |50 | | Prepared for Hearing | | | 0:24 | 0 | | Hearing on Case Status (Div 25:7th Flr) 2010-10-19 Tue 09:00| | | 0:30 | 0 | | Hearing on Motion to Dismiss 2010-11-30 Tue 09:00 | | | 1:15 | 10:3 | | Hearing on Motion to Dismiss 2010-12-21 Tue 09:00 | | | 1:09 | 50:9 | | Status Hearing 2011-01-25 Tue 09:00 | | | 1:31 | 50:31 | | Status Hearing 2011-04-26 Tue 09:00 | | | 1:42 | 25:21 | | Called Kevin [[bbdb:Stacy]].

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list. The docstring of `org-agenda-prefix-format' is heavily broken. First it says An alist with four entries, for the different agenda types. and then it goes on enumerating *five* keys: The keys to the sublists are `agenda', `timeline', `todo', `search' and `tags'. And finally, it presents an example where the value is not an alist but a simple string. As another example, if you don't want the time-of-day of entries in the prefix, you could use: (setq org-agenda-prefix-format %-11:c% s) Emacs : GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.0.11) of 2011-07-18 on thinkpad Package: Org-mode version 7.6 (release_7.6.143.g98b7c)

That's already one step. But do you get paragraphs ouput as one very long line as well -- when captured --, in the first link above? If yes, do you have a solution for that one?

Re: [O] iCalendar export
Gustav Wikström gustav.e...@gmail.com writes: Hi Gustav, So my question to this newsgroup is; If you use the iCalendar export function, what software do you use to view this information? Yeah, I convert to ical files on save, and there's some cron job that copies these files to some webpage. From there, I import into Google Calendar. But that doesn't show todos of imported ical files and has major encoding issues with german umlauts and so on. And have anyone got this information to their mobile devices? Android? Well, I have it there using the Google Calendar app. It's ok to see my appointments in some graphical read-only view, but nothing more... Bye, Tassilo
