Re: [O] Fast Access to TODO States without C-t
Hi Esben, If I hit 't' over a TODO item, it just changes the state to the next state. How can I jump to DONE(d!), f.ex? There's https://github.com/abo-abo/worf (also in MELPA) - an alternative to org speed keys. It's inspired by vi, so your task is handled by cwd (change word DONE). Other stuff works as well, such as cw[tnc] for (change word [TODO NEXT CANCELLED]). Similarly: cp is change property, dp is delete property, p is move to property, ct is change tag, hjkl - navigate left/down/up/right d2j - delete two headings down d3k - delete three headings up yj - copy one heading down to kill ring 3i - change view to summary level 3. wn - make jk move only by NEXT keywords. c - make hjkl behave like Meta+arrows cf - make hjkl behave like Shift+Meta+arrows cs - make hjkl behave line Shift+arrows q - return from the four modes above Try it out, perhaps you'll like it. regards, Oleh

Re: [O] Multiple Recursive Directories with org-agenda-files
Hi Esben, I use find-lisp-find-files. I have the following in my .emacs file: ;;-- ;; Load org agenda files ;;-- (load-library find-lisp) (add-hook 'org-agenda-mode-hook (lambda () (setq org-agenda-files (find-lisp-find-files /home/julian/Documents \.org$)) )) With this when I do C-c a, all the *.org files in my Documents directory get added into the agenda. According to this http://archive.today/7McXW#selection-9101.0-9101.4 If you are on a Linux machine you can use the find utility, which can be faster that the lisp library: (setq org-agenda-files (mapcar 'abbreviate-file-name (split-string (shell-command-to-string find ~/org -name \*.org\) \n))) I have not tried it though... but I may do it now.

(That is, `C-h v' on the latter leads to Not documented as a variable.) Am I using the right variable for the job? I do not really understand the preset nomenclature.

Re: [O] Trouble with Tables and Python
I should probably confess to having this in my .emacs files: ;; language specific headers. I think this comes before the defaults (setq org-babel-default-header-args:emacs-lisp (cons '(:results . value replace) (assq-delete-all :results org-babel-default-header-args))) ;; set default :results to output (setq org-babel-default-header-args (cons '(:results . output replace) (assq-delete-all :results org-babel-default-header-args))) ;; set default exports to both code and results (setq org-babel-default-header-args (cons '(:exports . both) (assq-delete-all :exports org-babel-default-header-args))) These things change the default behaviors for the results. I almost always want output as results, and not value (the regular default), except when coding in emacs-lisp where the value make sense to me. That would certainly be a point of confusion ;) I also find you want :results output raw if you are printing a table or printing org. This is something I have never found satisfying, especially for long tables or outputs it is tedious to have to delete the old output by hand before rerunning it. I have not found any other sets of options that do what I want, e.g. changing raw to org results in the section being wrapped in #+begin_org/end_org, which is usually not what I want. I usually do want the raw output. I hope that clarifies where some of your differences might be coming from.

Re: [O] Recording results of TODO items
I could well add it in a sub-heading under the TODO, I was just curious if there was a built-in org-mode way that I ought to be using instead of rolling something of my own.

Re: [O] Recording results of TODO items
Alright, I'll just do my own thing then, I suppose. Thanks!

org-reload is not helping here
Can you explain not working? There's not enough info here to see
what problem you are having.

Lets say my-org.css has this one line:
code { color: green; }
ie put inline code blocks in green when exporting to html
I change it to
code { color: blue; }
1 save the file
2. Run rusi/load-css
3. Check that org-export-html-file's value has changed from green to blue
However exports from org to html continue to export code-blocks as green
Restart emacs and export (some org file that has code blocks)
Now they are blue
[O] Org-Babel concise named scalar variables
I'm just getting started using Org Babel and I've run into a bit of an annoyance that I can't seem to find an answer to in the Org Babel docs. I find myself wanting to use one variable in multiple code blocks, for example, the path to a file. Org Babel provides several mechanisms for including array/list types, via tables and lists with a #+NAME line before them. However the only mechanism it provides for single variables is #+NAME before example blocks, which just seem clunky for something as trivial as a file path or numeric variable. Is there a more concise way to do simple variables, or am I stuck with the named example blocks? Thanks, Will

1) I hope that the various escapes needed *are* in your definition
and were stripped during the email trip; e.g. the inner quotes in the
first string should be \ and \n instead of n.
2) org-export-html-style smells like an org 7.x variable to me. Are you using
org 7.x? If not, you might need to change the name (although I don't
know for sure and I haven't researched it.)

code { color: blue; }
Is `code' meaningful? Exporting a simple file with code I get things
like this (with org 8.x):
pre class=src src-asymptote
My css is rusty, but shouldn't that be
src { color: blue; }
?

[O] Bug: C-C C-W (refile) makes copy when invoked in Agenda view
Hi, I encounter the issue as described here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-09/msg01284.html More specifically, it copies the task in stead of moving it when I press C-c C-w while creating a task, but if I quit emacs and press C-c C-w on an existing entry in my agenda buffer, it moves, not copies.
