Re: [O] Google Summer of Code 2012 Student Application
Hi Andrew, Reading this proposal and having a bit background in writing proposals, I have the following suggestion: * I'm not sure everyone (at least the one who review this) know what org-mode is. There should be a very small summary about org-mode and the key-benefit being plain text (which is why you can start this project after all). * In the way the proposal is written, you address org-mode users which uses git (later you mention other CVS too). This actually makes, or at least sound like, the proposal being only useful for a (small) intersection of users namely org-mode AND (in the sense of an logic AND) git-user. I would find it more useful to describe this work as being an extension for org-mode users; ** They can start to collaborate on a org-mode files, including collaboration with users of possible other software tools (e.g. mobileorg apps). ** Org-mode user can use a CVS system which is not only of interest for collaboration but for keeping a chronological order of changes in e.g. a project file. ** It makes org-mode a possible tool for software developers which can now use org-files e.g. for documentation and notes beside there source code in the same git repository. All this points would show that the proposal is going to extend org-mode instead of being limited useful for only a very particular user-base. Finally, I guess it would be good to mention that this project (and org-mode in general) is not limited to a OS but attracts users of MS Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Simply to demonstrate that the user-base can be expected to be rather large.

[O] Default prewarning time for each deadline
Hi! Is there a way to define a default pre-warning time string for new DEADLINE (only) timestamps? 99% of my DEADLINE timestamps ends with «-0d» as manual pre-warning time. From time to time I *do* want to use another pre-warning time such as -10d or -3d. So general deactivation of pre-warnings is not a solution to me. I am thinking of using C-c C-d, selecting the day and then something like DEADLINE: 2012-04-13 Fri -0d appears. Then I can choose to keep the default setting or change it to something else like -2d. Thanks! -- Karl Voit
[O] idea, in-line preview link
Hi, recently I was wondering if org-mode could have some sort of inline link. This would allow quick check-ups on details without having more and more buffers open. That is a link to another text (org-file) including text position like [[file:~/code/main.c::255]] However instead of open a new buffer and jump to that line, I would like to see the line +x lines just below the link and possible only until I move the cursor or by any other means close the link again Thus [[inlinefile:~/code/main.c::255+4]] open it [[inlinefile:~/code/main.c::255+4]] 1. This is all code 2. from main.c 3. I can preview in org 4. without switching the buffer 5. is that useful?! close it again and the buffer looks again like [[inlinefile:~/code/main.c::255+4]] Actually, I believe it is fairly easy to implement for people knowing LISP just a bit better then me ;) What do you think Totti

Re: [O] Question about org-table
I assume that your problem is due the long names in the column named protein. You can have org-table clip the columns to a more reasonable length by adding a row that contains e.g. 20 in the column to clip. This will clip the column to 20 characters. You can still edit the full column contents by doing ~C-c `~. Thus add the following new row in the beginning or the end of the table: ||| 20 | || move to 20 and press C-c C-c.

Recently, I got notmuch running after giving up on gnus for the third or fourth time, because I never found enough time to come into it. Unfortunately, I find the notmuch thread buffers rather confusing and would be very happy if a little org-mode magic would move into it. Nevertheless notmuch allows you to write emails too. What you have to do is to set-up the smtp server to sent your mails. That can be either a pointer to an existing smtp server (like gmail) or a own server. A own server might be nice but requires some fiddling and hence I decided to use msmtp [1]. It requires only a very small config file with the credentials and settings for each smtp (email) account. Mostly what you are used to type into thunderbird too. In my emacs init files I added /init_notmuch.el---/ ;;/// ;; notmuch and smtp settings ;;// (require 'notmuch) (setq message-send-mail-function 'message-send-mail-with-sendmail) ;; we substitute sendmail with msmtp (setq sendmail-program /usr/bin/msmtp) ;;need to tell msmtp which account we're using (setq message-sendmail-extra-arguments '(-a gmail)) ;; integrate with org-mode (require 'org-notmuch) (require 'notmuch-address) (setq notmuch-address-command /home/torsten/mails/get_address.sh) (notmuch-address-message-insinuate) /init-notmuch.el---/ get_address.sh is a little shell script which enables to access the googlemail contact list and you will get auto completion. /--get_address.sh-/ #!/bin/sh goobook query $* | sed 's/\(.*\)\t\(.*\)\t.*/\2 \\1\/' | sed '/^$/d' /-get_address.sh/ details about this can be found on the notmuch website. Being in a notmuch buffer pressing 'm' opens a new buffer with a empty template in Message mode Fill it and C-c C-C will send the mail out. It should appear in notmuch later and if you did your filtering/tagging right you can file it under sent. From there it should be pretty easy to link to an org-mode file. Again I would like to see notmuch using more org-mode magic to get a more clean representation of mails and esp. threads. Some more hooks like automatic linking to notmuch emails in org-mode buffers and creating of emails directly from org-mode buffers would be nice and I guess its rather easy to implement. (E.g., a single command to create a new mail and generating a org-mode link to that email in notmuch, at the current position in a org-mode buffer would be very nice). Hope that helps Hi Torsten, id definitely does. I have implemented it and am playing at the moment with the external editor (combined with the message-mode and the get_address.sh script) and it looks quite nice at the moment. I think I will tackle the rest later.

[O] How could I mix COMMENT and TODO?
Hi, Orgers of this world! :-) I do not find how to mix COMMENT and TODO in a working way, and I thought that someone could advise me. For ease and simplicity, I try to keep everything related to some topic in a single file, merely commenting (C-c ;) headers for those parts I do not want to publish. I would also like to keep my TODO entries for this topic in the same file, and these are usually not to be published either. However, TODO seems to be ignored whenever it is on or under a COMMENT header. When I comment a TODO entry, the TODO gets un-highlighted, and the entry scheduling disappears from the agenda. So, until I find something better, I keep these TODO in another file, which I find an awkward compromise. I could use #+BEGIN_COMMENT and such within the entry, but the header itself gets published, which I do not want. So, what is the proper way for fully preventing a working TODO header from being published? Or else, what is the good approach? François

Re: [O] How could I mix COMMENT and TODO?
Hi François, François Pinard wrote: Hi, Orgers of this world! :-) I do not find how to mix COMMENT and TODO in a working way, and I thought that someone could advise me. For ease and simplicity, I try to keep everything related to some topic in a single file, merely commenting (C-c ;) headers for those parts I do not want to publish. I would also like to keep my TODO entries for this topic in the same file, and these are usually not to be published either. However, TODO seems to be ignored whenever it is on or under a COMMENT header. When I comment a TODO entry, the TODO gets un-highlighted, and the entry scheduling disappears from the agenda. So, until I find something better, I keep these TODO in another file, which I find an awkward compromise. I could use #+BEGIN_COMMENT and such within the entry, but the header itself gets published, which I do not want. So, what is the proper way for fully preventing a working TODO header from being published? Or else, what is the good approach? Instead of COMMENT'ing entries, I prefer the tag version of the same functionality: mark the entries you don't wanna see exported with the `noexport' tag. Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban

[O] Struggling with large: :LOGBOOK: .. :END: blocks
Hi all, As a long time Org user I have a lot of tasks having large :LOGBOOK: .. :END: blocks, sometimes 50 and more CLOCK entries. Why? Well, I have tasks to read and organise E-Mail which I do at least once I day and which I have to clock. I also do have to adjust the latest few CLOCK lines manually. Now, opening the :LOGBOOK: block I cannot see the text following the :LOGBOOK: block because all the CLOCK entries flood my screen. But I would like to see it in order to get some context of the task. Wouldn't it be a nice thing to be able to configure the number of visible block entries? This could result in: Opening the :LOGBOOK block with TAB shows this: * TODO text :LOGBOOK: CLOCK: [2012-03-27 Di 13:00]--[2012-03-27 Di 13:30] = 0:30 CLOCK: [2012-03-06 Di 11:30]--[2012-03-06 Di 11:45] = 0:15 CLOCK: [2012-03-02 Fr 14:45]--[2012-03-02 Fr 15:15] = 0:30 .. :END: Another TAB would show all CLOCK entries. The next TAB would close the block again. The variable could configure: show the first n entries of the BLOCK show the last n entries of the BLOCK show the first n and last m entries of the BLOCK Regards, Rainer

Be aware of that the behaviour of the deadlines written before and without an explicit warning period will change. They will not warn any more before the due date.

[O] Bug: SCHEDULED: positioning is fragile [7.8.06 (release_7.8.06.181.ga481)]
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. Given the following: --8---cut here---start-8--- * TODO Some headline SCHEDULED: 2012-04-05 Thu --8---cut here---end---8--- If I add body text between the headline and the SCHEDULED: line, some things work, but others don't. For example: --8---cut here---start-8--- * TODO Some headline some body SCHEDULED: 2012-04-05 Thu --8---cut here---end---8--- In agenda mode, I can hit `f' (org-agenda-date-later) and it will bump the scheduled date forward and all is well. However, if I hit `C-c C-s + RET' (org-agenda-schedule), the item changes to --8---cut here---start-8--- * TODO Some headline SCHEDULED: 2012-04-06 Fri some body SCHEDULED: 2012-04-05 Thu --8---cut here---end---8--- Moreover, the agenda still thinks this item is scheduled for 2012-04-05! I can attempt to reschedule the item indefinitely and the scheduled date will never appear to change, because the later one overrides the earlier one. There's no reason the format should be so sensitive to ordering. If org-agenda-date-later can do the right thing, so can org-agenda-schedule and all the other commands that change the scheduled date of an item.

Here are a couple of comments which I hope are helpful. To find more publicly available Babel function you can do C-c C-v h in an Org-mode buffer or run the org-babel-describe-bindings command There are two high level sub-menus which I may suggest be added to the above, namely languages and library of babel, which could list information on available languages and list library of babel functions respectively. I'm not sure how menus are normally used, specifically how Emacs breaks functionality between the menu, configuration and help sub-systems. It is possible that because of such boundaries both the help and languages submenus may not be appropriate. Two other pieces of menu content which occur to me are a list of the code blocks available in the current buffer including some information on each block (e.g., name, arguments,), and a way to show the user what the current file wide header arguments are -- note: there already exists a function for displaying this information on the code block level `org-babel-view-source-block-info' which may be sufficient.

Hello, Bastien. I understand what you mean by saying it does not make sense with the current mechanics. Yet, from a user perspective, it surely makes sense hoping that Org offers a way for adding attributes to either part of a link, as links are kind of indivisible (so far that I know). I suggest you fix your css instead. My knowledge of CSS is rudimentary. I'm not aware that CSS (the version widely available, not the incoming one) has enough matching capabilities to spot wrong HTML, remove attributes on some elements and add them on other elements. Is that really possible? Should I dive and study CSS more? Without matching, CSS would not help much, as the correction is needed in three dozen cases at most, and not blindly for all images. I could ponder using XSL or something else to post-process the HTML generated by Org, so circumventing the limitation. This would be adding an unwelcome layer of complexity. I like to perceive Org as a tool which much simplify my life! :-). François

Just use the noexport tag on the parent tree with the TODOs. * Tasks:noexport: ** TODO foo ** TODO bar Excellent! Thanks a lot for remembering me this feature (I read about it a while ago, then forgot). It even works fine if we directly use: * TODO foo :noexport: * TODO bar :noexport: I much prefer this :noexport: tag to the COMMENT feature, and I changed them all. I also fully re-merged my split files, so everything is now in its proper place. Happiness! :-) François P.S. A tiny chat follows. In my very first tries with Org, a few months ago, I put all Org files into the agenda, to discover that Org was very, very slow. So, I changed it all and collected all agenda and TODO into three files only, holding lots of links to all other Org files where the information really was. Org recovered all its speed. And besides, to repair the lost search capabilities, I kludged M-x rgrep so it could search all Org files and reveal contents when visiting hits. Well, the reveal does not always work, but yet, the quicker search is constantly useful to me. Currently, having put TODOs back in their proper Org files and declaring them as agenda files, 38 agenda files are taken out from 360 Org files. Even if slightly less speedy than 3 agenda files, this is still very bearable: Org does not crawl. The way Org handles org-agenda-files as a string naming a file is really convenient to me, it eases the writing of external programs acting on them all. All in all, very satisfactory!
Re: [O] Problem with exporting TAB key

How to force export and tangle functions not to convert TAB to spaces? You can't: org-export-preprocess-string (in lisp/org-exp.el) contains a call to untabify: (untabify (point-min) (point-max)) which converts tabs to spaces, no questions asked. I don't know why that is, so maybe Bastien or Carsten can tell us the reason. If you are feeling adventurous, you might want to try commenting out that call and see what, if anything, breaks. Just tried, I commented that line in org-exp.el, run Emacs open ORG file export it to HTML and tangle it. HTML document has spaces instead of TAB as well as shell file. If there is no other way to preserve TAB in tangled file (I only concern with tanlged file) I will use another symbol to separate fields. * COMMENT #+BEGIN_SRC sh :tangle ex.sh :shebang #!/bin/bash :noweb yes ex1 #+END_SRC --- WBR, Vladimir Lomov -- College: The fountains of knowledge, where everyone goes to drink.
Re: [O] layout org-babel menu WAS: About org-babel menu
Hi, for me the biggest trouble with babel is to remember the possible keywords in the header for different languages. There were a lot of ongoing syntax change which did not make it easier for me to remember all this. Thus a menu which is organised by languages offering all possible settings for each language would be very helpful. | Python || | export - code - result - both - none || | tangle - no - yes- filename | | | result - value - output | | | ... | ... Not sure how effectual this would be in a main menu. It would be definitely awesome in a context menu That would be (copied from worg) [*] indicates cursor position #+NAME: factorial #+BEGIN_SRC haskell [*] :results silent :exports code :var n=0 a context menu would appear presenting all possible header arguments for haskell #+NAME: factorial #+BEGIN_SRC haskell :results [*] :exports code :var n=0 a context menu presenting all possible values for the header argument :results in haskell I guess that together with the possibility to call this menu by keyboard strokes or alternatively show the same infos in the minibuffer would be a great win for babel and it would make many questions here on the list unnecessary. Furthermore, any change or extension in the syntax for a certain language would be directly reflected to the end-user. E.g., If I suddenly see the menu entry :exports 3dprint, I would be curious and check it out on worg and the manual ;) Totti On 5 April 2012 21:44, Eric Schulte eric.schu...@gmx.com wrote: Rainer M Krug r.m.k...@gmail.com writes: On 28/03/12 01:07, Bastien wrote: Hi Rainer, Rainer M Krug r.m.k...@gmail.com writes: So I would see it as a useful way of promoting babel (and therefore org-mode) and also as a nice reminder of less frequently (but nevertheless usefull) functionality. Agreed. Is anyone volunteering for listing the items in such a menu for Babel? If so, I'm willing to implement this. OK - let me start this.

So - At the moment this is a skeleton of the babel menu - Comments? forgotten commands (I assume many? Hi Rainer, Thanks for starting this. It looks like a great skeleton. Here are a couple of comments which I hope are helpful. To find more publicly available Babel function you can do C-c C-v h in an Org-mode buffer or run the org-babel-describe-bindings command There are two high level sub-menus which I may suggest be added to the above, namely languages and library of babel, which could list information on available languages and list library of babel functions respectively. I'm not sure how menus are normally used, specifically how Emacs breaks functionality between the menu, configuration and help sub-systems. It is possible that because of such boundaries both the help and languages submenus may not be appropriate. Two other pieces of menu content which occur to me are a list of the code blocks available in the current buffer including some information on each block (e.g., name, arguments,), and a way to show the user what the current file wide header arguments are -- note: there already exists a function for displaying this information on the code block level `org-babel-view-source-block-info' which may be sufficient. Cheers, I'm not convince we should have a menu item to (de)activate each language though -- more a menu that exposes the basics. Agreed. Cheers, Rainer Thanks, -- Eric Schulte http://cs.unm.edu/~eschulte/
Re: [O] Filling a paragraph without filling SCHEDULED line
Hello Bastien, I tried out `org-fill-paragraph' and it seems to work exactly the way I would like. Perhaps some people would prefer to have the scheduled line filled with the text, but I find this way makes the scheduled line stand out, and it is easier to delete without having to re-fill. Thank you so much for the fix. All the best, Stuart On 4/3/12, Bastien b...@gnu.org wrote: Hi Stuart, Thanks for raising this issue. I implemented an exception in `org-fill-paragraph' that takes care of handling your case correctly. Please test and confirm this works okay for you. Best, -- Bastien

What you're asking for would be possible if the list of items were stored somewhere else than in a dedicated buffer -- which is not the case right now (see also my recent reply to Manuel.) So, when visiting the above file, or executing C-c C-c, the org-agenda-files would be refreshed, as would be the local-agenda-view block. In this example, the agenda-view is non-standard. So, is the following possible - buffer local agenda-files that are set in the declarations - embedded agenda view - view customized as shown above If that is not possible, what variables functions would I need to look at? You can try to digg the idea of `org-agenda-listing' further. Good luck! -- Bastien Thanks Bastien, Did you mean `org-agenda-list'? Mirko
[O] Notes when clocking out on item
Is it possible to be prompted for a note about what was done when clocking out for an item (but not marking it DONE)?

Re: [O] Bug: Tag Completion Not Prompting for all tags
Hi Bastien, Bastien b...@gnu.org writes: Hi Mike, Mike McLean mike.mcl...@pobox.com writes: 8 Type tag_ followed by TAB The expected result is a completion list of tag_a and tag_b, this does not work and the Minibuffer prompts [No match] Fixed. Note that if I were to remove the single characters for tag_a and tag_b completion works for those two but not for the Personal tag from the file Fixed. Shouldn't free tag entry always show all possible tags, regardless of the setting of or use of fast tag completion? I think so -- thanks a lot for the detailed report. This change (commit acc7a0b2) has the effect of adding buffer tags to the fast tag completion window (and assigning them arbitrary shortcuts). Historically, only tags explicitly defined in org-tag-alist or via an in-buffer heading show up in the fast tag completion window. In addition, tags now show up in the window twice with different shortcuts (once if defined in org-tag-alist, and once if they appear in the buffer). Best, Matt
