Can you post your configuration? Best to do it with M-x org-submit-bug-report,
I'd guess.

I did another experiment, I don't even have to mark anything as
done. All I have to do is to refresh the buffer with "g" and they are
gone.

[O] Strange Problem with "org-agenda-redo"

[Charles Philip Chan]

Hello all:

I have a strange problem with "org-agenda-redo" and I hope that someone
can shed some light. I have an Agenda view which contains everything I
need for the day which I leave open all the time. The agenda view
already contains a schedule for the current day. A couple of days ago I
decided to add another block I called "Upcoming Events" which contains a
schedule for the next 6 days (I prefer a separate section, so that I can
easily ignore it rather then having a 7 days block). Everything is
working fine with the exception that after I mark a TODO
(scheduled/deadline) or HABIT as done, all my appointment, habits,
scheduled and deadline items disappear from the view after I save all
Agenda files and force a redisplay (s g). If I quite the view and enter
it again through the dispatcher, everything is displayed again.

As an aside, IMHO, I thinks some imenu support for blocks is a good
idea.

Thanks.

Charles

[O] Projects in workflow/agenda setup question

[Nathan Neff]

I gather that lots of org-mode users have the concept of a "project" --
I mean, there's examples of a "project" agenda command in the org-mode
documentation, so this is obviously a very familiar subject.

I'm trying to get my custom agenda commands set up so that
I can do the following:

1) See projects (collections of TODOs) that are currently
"active" or "started"
2) Drill down into those projects quickly and see the remaining TODOs

Sounds simple, right?  So, I have an agenda view that looks for
headlines with the tag "project", that are in a "started" todo-state.
I've configured the "project" tag so it does not cascade/get inherited
by sub-headlines.  This
gives me a nice overview on the projects that I am currently working on.
This part works fine, and I get something like the following from my
custom agenda:

* started Project 1 :project:
* started Project 2 :project:

Now, I'd like to define a workflow for jumping to those projects and quickly
seeing what needs to be done.  In other words, any TODOs that are children
of the respective project that I'm interested in.

The problem I'm currently facing is that when I navigate to a project headline,
and run the Agenda to show me the TODOs, that the agenda doesn't show TODOs that
are scheduled.  For example, if I narrow the agenda to * Project 1 and
then press "t" to show all the TODOs, then
I only see Task 1, and I'd like to see Task 2.

* Project 1
** todo Task 1
** todo Task 2
   

I think that this is such a wide use-case that I would ask the mailing
list how you implement
this concept of viewing current projects and then drilling down to see
what's left to do.  I know that
Bernt Hanson has a great workflow, and I use a lot of his custom
solutions, but his project
stuff is a little over my head.

Any thoughts?  Please just post links if there's some good
conversations that I've missed on the mailing lists.

Thanks,
--Nate

Just confirming your assumption:

Emacs in terminal usually doesn't link to Aquamacs.app.

moritz@Moritzs-MacBook-Air ~ % /usr/bin/emacs --version
GNU Emacs 22.1.1

Pretty old. (I'm on Lion, not Mountain Lion, but I don't think there's a
difference)


Aquamacs itself is pretty horrible. It breaks so many things from Emacs.
I'd suggest moving to Emacs.app, installed via Homebrew or downloaded
from http://emacsformacosx.com/

Homebrew will take care of linking emacs to /usr/local/bin/, the .app
from the website won't.

[O] Does html table export require that the top row be treated as a header?

[John Hendy]

I have a document I will export via pdf and html. My table is like so:

#+attr_latex: align={lp{0.8\textwidth}}
#+attr_html: width="600px"
| *R1* | stuff|
|--+--|
| *R2* | more stuff   |
|--+--|
| *R2* | some third stuff |

I'd like horizontal separators in LaTeX and don't care one way or the
other for html so since there didn't seem to be a way to have them in
one and not the other I inserted them. When I export the html, it
looks as though since I have separators it exports the top row as
class=th instead of tr like a normal row. This bolds and centers it.

Any way to have it treat the top row as a regular row in the presence
of midlines?


Thanks,
John

Bastien  writes:

Hi Bastien:

OK, I will explain in more detail. I have set org-agenda-start-day to
"+1d" in the block. If I set "org-agenda-span" to anything but "7" (for
example "6" or "8"), the resulting agenda view is correct and the start
day is tomorrow (and span the number of days I specified). However, if I
set org-agenda-span to "7", the resulting agenda view does not start
tomorrow, but the Sunday of the current week.

[O] org-notify.el doesn't work

[Andy Schönemann]

Hello,

I just upgraded to org-mode 7.9 and I want to test the new org-notify.el
package. I inserted the two lines (require 'org-notify) and
(org-notify-start) into my init file. But I can't use this mode.That means
I can't run none of the commands with M-x org-notify-*.

Congrats to the Org-team!  Great work as always!

It seems doc.html on worg ins't up to date.  At least a couple of the

to unicode.

BTW: It should technically be possible to run org-e-ascii
(unicode-version) on tables when sending mails via message-mode, no?
That would be need.

[O] Agenda - Stored Search Issue

All,

I'm having an issue trying to suppress my TODOs based on HABITS from my 
Tomorrows Tasks.

I use more of a Do It Tomorrow Methodology where my WILL tasks are done today, 
whereas my TODO tasks are started after the WILL tasks are completed.  Because 
I 
already have HABITS at the top of my agenda, I really want to suppress them 
from 
showing up again.  Below is a fragment of my agenda commands.  Would someone 
mind pointing me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

To make this clearer in the manual I suggest the attached small patch.

Re: [O] Org-mode release 7.9

[Rainer Thiel]

Is there a way to install Org 7.9 under Windows Vista?

I have written the following local.mk in the Org installation directory:

-->
# Name of your emacs binary
EMACS   = emacs.exe

# Where local software is found
prefix  = C:/Program Files/Emacs

# Where local lisp files go.
lispdir= $(prefix)/site-lisp/org

# Where local data files go.
datadir = $(prefix)/etc/org

# Where info files go.
infodir = $(prefix)/info
<--

Those are the very setting that I used to put in the Makfile in
previous Org versions.  Now cygwin make fails with the following
output:

-->

Actually double *thanks* for reporting this.

The utils/ directory was not included in previous .zip and .tar.gz
archives, and this directory is needed when building Org.

I just fixed this.

Please download again and let us know if you still have this issue.

It's even weirder, because the org-20120824.tar you downloaded by
uploading contains Org 7.8.11.

The Org ELPA packages is first created on http://orgmode.org
(http://orgmode.org/pkg/daily/) then copied to http://elpa.gnu.org.

I replaced org-20120824.tar with one containing Org 7.9.

Perhaps first reupdate and report?

Aloha Bastien,

Congratulations on seeing Org to 7.9.  Many thanks to Nicolas, Achim,
Eric, Max and the rest for their many contributions.

I'm using Org from Elpa (which is neat).  When I updated and refreshed
Org, I got the following error:

Loading /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/org/org-w3m.elc...done
Loading /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/org/org-wl.elc...done
Loading /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/org/org.elc...done
Cannot open load file: ob.el

This seems strange to me because I have Org in
~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20120824, and not /Applications/Emacs.app/...

Does anybody have an idea what might be going on here?

Thanks,
Tom

Hello Bastien,

thank you very much! I'm working with Freeplane, a fork of Freemind and
you're right, the text is in the .mm file, so I'll ask the Freeplane
developers, why it does not work.

Kind regards

The old "UTILITIES/" directory has been renamed to "utils/".

Please make sure that you have it and that you don't have

[O] Kudos to Auréliens and Andrew who finished the GSoC successfully!

[Bastien]

I'm happy to announce Aurélien and Andrew both passed the final
evaluation for their GSoC.  Join me in congratulating them :)

See their code in action:

Aurélien's Org-sync:
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbj6-j0teCY

Andrew's Org Merge driver (put your own favorite music):
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbaaFmoEfGw

If you want to test the code:

  ~$ git clone git://orgmode.org/org-sync.git
  ~$ git clone git://orgmode.org/org-merge-driver.git

I'm really glad they went so far in these projects, despite
the fact that I could not support them as much as I wanted.

Here are some notes they shared with me about their project,
don't hesitate to pick up some news and ask questions.

Enjoy!

Org-sync -- Use online bugtrackers from Emacs with Org-mode
===

Org-sync uses a new parser for Org documents and provides a generic
interface to add new backends.

Tutorial, code, screencast (demo) and documentation available at
[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/gsoc2012/student-projects/org-sync/]

Org-sync


What works:
- cache system to prevent fetching everything everytime
- conflict resolution
- synchronization

What doesn't:
- no bugzilla, google code, google task and toodledoo backends
- no conversion from online service markup to org syntax.

Github
--
What works:
- add new bugs
- change status, description, title, etc
- change/create/remove tags

What doesn't:
- milestones ignored

Bitbucket
-
What works:
- delete/add new bugs
- change status, description, title, type, etc

What doesn't:
- components, versions, milestones ignored

Redmine
---
What works:
- delete/add new bugs
- change title and description

What doesn't:
- almost every other field is ignored
- not tested very well

Remember the milk
-
What works:
- import existing tasks

What doesn't:
- synchronization not implemented

Org-Merge Driver -- Merge Org Mode documents


The project webpage is available at:
[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/gsoc2012/student-projects/git-merge-tool/index.html]
There is small (soundless) demonstration here:
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbaaFmoEfGw]

What Works
--

- Parsing Org files into data structures
- A system for matching and merging arbitrary lists of data
- Element movement detection
- A system for supporting new types of element
- A testing framework, and a number of tests

Headings


- recognize and merge priority and stat cookies
- recognize and merge TODO states
- recognize and merge TAGS
- support movement detection of UID'ed headings

Text


- Merge text blocks using a line-by-line merge strategy

Properties
~~

- Recognize properties in a property drawer
- Properly deal with value updates

What doesn't work
-

- Does not support more encodings than UTF-8
- Some movement updates will give unexpected results

Possible Future Features


- Able to specify different merge software for different types of blocks
- Footnotes support
- Date Tree support

I second the desire for such a feature. Unfortunately, I do not have

[O] Please consider making a donation

[Bastien]

Hello all,

I've been a freelancer for the last two months and I want to continue
this experience.

As such, my main challenge is to discipline myself not to spend too 
much time on Org -- because, as you can imagine, it *is* very tempting.

So the more donation I receive, the more time I will have for Org.

Any donation will first go into a new computer, as my lovely Thinkpad
X61 is about to die.

I you think of any Emacs/Org development you would like to sponsor,
independantly from what's already existing, please send me an email.

Thanks for your help!

[O] Org-mode release 7.9

[Bastien]

Hi all,

I've released Org 7.9.

  http://orgmode.org/org-7.9.zip
  http://orgmode.org/org-7.9.gz
  http://orgmode.org/org-mode-download.html

After 1885 commits since Org 7.8, it was about time.

See the list of changes here:

I cannot thank all the contributors enough: especially Nicolas, for his

New build system and new packages
=

New build system


Achim implemented a new build system.

The basic method for installing Org is the same:

1. Download or clone Org.
2. run `make install' from the Org directory.
3. Add (require 'org-install) in your .emacs.el.

But the build system is now more flexible and can be more easily
adapted to suit your needs.

See [http://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-build-system.html] for details.

New packages in core


=org-eshell.el= by Konrad Hinsen is now in Org's core

If you cannot open this .png image in dired mode, it's certainly

The nodes are here in the .mm file -- so maybe some compatibility issue

so it's hard to tell.

But then archiving the "* Make tea" headline would require to merge the
logs of the archived one and those of the alive one.  Quite some work.

[O] Switching from weekly to daily agenda loses window state

[Moritz Ulrich]

I use org-agenda with `org-agenda-restore-windows-after-quit' set to t.
This causes Emacs to restore my prior window configuration when closing
the agenda.

This doesn't work in the following scenario:

1) Open Agenda with some split frames (C-x 2, C-a a)
2) Maximize agenda window using 'o'
3) Switch to another agenda (d, etc.)
4) Close Agenda via 'q'

The expected result is, that org-mode restores the window configuration
prior maximizing the agenda. This doesn't work, as org-mode seems to
overwrite this information when re-creating the agenda when I press 'd'
to switch to the daily agenda.

[O] Hyperlink to fileset

[O] Bug: Capture with %i replaces placeholders in copied region

[Moritz Ulrich]

When I capture a new item to org-mode where the template includes %i
(capture active region), other placeholders in the region are replaced
(evaluated).

For example, capturing with the template

--8<---cut here---start->8---
  ("t" "Todo" entry
   (file+headline "todo.org" "Tasks")
   "* TODO %?\n  %i\n %a\n")
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

while the following region is active:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
;; ("w" "URL" entry (file+headline "notes.org"   "URLs")
;;"* %^{Title}\n\n  Source: %u, %c\n\n  %i")
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

it will asks for 'Title' because the captured region contains the
placeholder %^{Title}.


This feels wrong, and is most likely a bug.

[O] Problems with displaying .png images in a buffer (was: Re: Problems with diacritics in Mountain Lion + Org Mode)

[Pierfranco Minsenti]

Thank you Bastien: you were right: one of my previous settings was the
problem: the use as the default font of TeX Gyre Termes which so far I had
not yet installed on this computer with Mountain Lion.
Sorry for asking for help because of this stupid mistake.

So far I find only this other problem in using Org Mode on Mountain Lion:
on the previous computer with Lion when using Org mode I was able to
display in a buffer a .png image when I clicked on an hyperlink in an Org
mode file which pointed to this type of file.

Now If I do the same this message is displayed:

Cannot display image: (Cannot determine image type)

(by the way: the hyperlink to the file is correct and in fact when I export
the Org file to LibreOffice the .png image is rightly displayed).

In my Emacs settings the option Image File Name Extensions
contains a list of extensions among which the .png

and Auto Image File Mode is set on

So any idea what is the right configuration for displaying in a buffer a
.png image when using Org mode?

I was thinking more along the lines of the way archiving works already,
but instead of moving the whole heading, a copy of the heading plus the
old logs would be made in the archive file, and the old logs would be
deleted from the original file, i.e.

gtd.org:

,-
| * Make tea
|   :LOGBOOK:
|   CLOCK: [2012-08-24 Fri 13:05]--[2012-08-24 Fri 13:40] =>  0:35

|   :END:
`-
 
would become

gtd.org:

,-
| * Make tea
|   :LOGBOOK:
|   CLOCK: [2012-08-24 Fri 13:05]--[2012-08-24 Fri 13:40] =>  0:35

Nope.  You can store a link to the headline with `C-c l' then select

The question is: _where_ to archive those log entries?

The best idea I can think of is another drawer, like you did.

I'm not a Mac user, but I'm pretty sure ~$ emacs from the Terminal
is *not* linked to the Aquamacs executable.

Sorry I didnt' mention that I use the latest version of everything: so
Org 7.8.11 and Aquamacs version 2.4. based on GNU Emacs 23.3.50.1.

Bastien thanks for the suggestion.
I have tried what you suggested and used Emacs from the Terminal
Application in Mac OS X: in this case I have no problems. Diacritics
inserted in the org file by hitting the proper key in the Italian keyboard
layout are correctly displayed:

diacritics are displayed

This is how it works right now.

For each agenda custom command or capture template, you can define 
a context where it will be accessible.

E.g. you have these custom commands:

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
  '(("A" "" ...)
("B" "" ...)))

But you don't need "B" in .txt files:

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
  '(("B" ((not-in-file . "\.txt")

That's it.

Or maybe you want "B" to be accessible with the "A" key (and 
don't want the "A" key):

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
  '(("A" "B" ((not-in-file . "\.txt")

Or maybe you want "B" to be accessible only in your first two
hours of using Emacs...

(defun less-than-nhours-of-emacs-uptime (&optional n)
 (interactive "P")
 (let ((n (or n 2)))
   (< (time-to-seconds (time-subtract (current-time) before-init-time))
  (* n 3600

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
  '(("B" (less-then-nhours-of-emacs-uptime

[O] Archiving drawers?

[Loris Bennett]

Hi,

I have a small number of tasks that I clock into daily.  I have already
manually split off the older log entries into a separate draw called
OLDLOGS.  However, I was wondering whether there is a way of archiving
these log entries while preserving the heading itself in the original
org file.

Cheers,

Loris

OK - this defines the key Cc-x to execute org-babel-remove-result for the 
org-mode keymap - nice.

I am now using

(define-key org-mode-map "\C-cx" 'org-babel-remove-result)

Re: [O] Problems with diacritics in Mountain Lion + Org Mode

Hi Pierfranco,

Do you have this error with 

emacs -Q
C-x f ~/myfile.org
[some diacritics]

?

If you use another version of Org on top of the Emacs version,
maybe you can also check emacs -Q + loading this version and see
what does not works.

I'm not sure to understand what is wrong and how org-agenda-span is
involved in the problem.

Can you explain a bit more?

Once Org is loaded (so that `org-mode-map' is defined):

(define-key org-mode-map "\C-cx-" 'org-babel-remove-result)

I am still confused by elisp and especially keybindings

Re: [O] Export citation with Org-cite

[Christian Moe]

Hi,

Is that the org-cite.el I have posted to the list?
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-01/txtFdsR7fbrBK.txt

I'm glad you find it useful. Still, I cannot recommend that you rely 
on it for anything that you depend on in your job -- it's an 
early-stage hobbyist project that I haven't developed further due to 
lack of time and feedback.


Please send me as much information as you can about the bugs (without 
revealing sensitive document contents, of course).


If possible, I'd like you to send me (off-list!) the .org file and the 
.aux and .bbl files from latex export, and tell me what bibtex package 
you're using. The bibtex and the resulting ODT might also be useful.


I'm in the middle of other work, so bugfixes could take days or weeks.

Yours,
Christian Moe

Good morning everyone,

I am a new org-mode user and I previously used LaTeX.
Unfortunatly, my boss want me to produce MS word file for draft

So I am looking for a solution allowing me to produce articles both in
LaTeX and in Word.
I think that the org mode and its LaTeX, Html and Odt exporter can be
usefull.

I tryed to export files in Odt and Html using the org-cite.el .
It works quite fine but I obtained some non expected results such as :
/"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed non

Can that be fixed easily ?

When I run org-babel-goto-named-src-block interactively, tab-completion
offers me the name of the block I'm interested in, but when I select it,
I get 

,

`

Is this a bug?  I'm on emacs23 with Org 7.8.11.

[O] Added information to: Problems with diacritics in Mountain Lion + Org Mode

[Pierfranco Minsenti]

I also add to my previous e-mail about problems with diacritics in Mountain
Lion + Org Mode: it seems to be just a display problem. This is proved by
the fact that exporting to LibreOffice works:  the accented characters
which I have typed but are not displayed in the Org Mode interface of
Aquamacs (a square appears) are correctly exported to LibreOffice.

[O] Problems with diacritics in Mountain Lion + Org Mode

[Pierfranco Minsenti]

Hi all,

I' am using since a few days Mac OS X Mountain Lion and found that while
retaining all my previous Org mode settings and Aquamacs settings, now I am
unable to obtain diacritics in Org Mode that is letters such as è à etc.

I only obtain them displayed in Org when they are inside a Org heading
For example: I can write:

* è

and the è is correctly displayed.

But not when I write it in the text.

The symbol of a square appears instead of accented letters.

The coding systems I used with previous Mac OS X (Snow Leopard and Lion) is
always the same: that is UTF8
If I try to insert diacritics opening the virtual keyboard from upper menu
in Mac OS X nothing change: I always obtain the symbol of a square.

This problem seems to affects only Org Mode because if I use another mode
in Aquamacs I have no problems at all in displaying diacritics.

So I am unable to understand what is the cause of this problem.

Has anybody found this? Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Pierfranco
