[O] eliminating blocked tasks from printed agenda
I am having a configuration problem I was hoping to get some help with. I have a simple agenda configuration file that looks like this. (setq org-agenda-custom-commands '((o Office tasks tags-todo OFFICE nil (~/agenda.pdf And I have the custom variable org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks set to the symbol invisible. It does what I expect when I build the agenda in buffer. Blocked tasks are hidden. However, when I export the agenda to PDF, blocked tasks are included in the agenda. Is there anything I can configure so that the exported agenda does not include blocked tasks? Thank you for the help.
[O] Org-mode and fill-nobreak-predicate
Hello list, I've just installed Emacs 25 (I only had 24.3 before), and was eager to try out some cool new features. I put this in my init.el: (add-hook 'fill-nobreak-predicate #'fill-single-char-nobreak-p) But it won't work in Org-mode: it turns out that Org sets fill-nobreak-predicate, too. What should I do? Should I put my add-hook /in the org-mode-hook/? TIA, -- Marcin Borkowski http://octd.wmi.amu.edu.pl/en/Marcin_Borkowski Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science Adam Mickiewicz University

[O] Calling a source block with raw results
Dear Orgers,
The following shell function lists the files within a directory and for
each file, write a org piece of code to include it.
#+NAME: org-figure-to-slide
#+HEADERS: :var title=Empty title
#+HEADERS: :var dir=./figures :var ext=*.pdf
#+HEADERS: :var options=
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
if [ ! -d ${dir} ]; then
echo ${dir} is not a directory !
exit 1
fi
for i in ${dir}/${ext}; do
echo * ${title}
if [ ${options} != ]; then
echo :PROPERTIES:
echo ${options}
echo :END:
fi
echo #+BEGIN_CENTER
echo #+ATTR_LATEX: :width \linewidth
echo [[file:${i}]]
echo #+END_CENTER
done
#+END_SRC
The basic use of such function is for a beamer presentation, each
headline corresponds to a figure.
Since I am explicitly writing all the org code, I would like to call the
function and gets a *raw* results by doing
#+CALL: org-figure-to-slide[:exports none :results raw]()
The problem is when executing the call line, the result is always embeds
between #+begin_example/#+end_example code block given something like
#+RESULTS:
#+begin_example
* Empty title
#+BEGIN_CENTER
#+ATTR_LATEX: :width \linewidth
[[file:./figures/timeline0.pdf]]
#+END_CENTER
* Empty title
#+BEGIN_CENTER
#+ATTR_LATEX: :width \linewidth
[[file:./figures/timeline1.pdf]]
#+END_CENTER
#+end_example
I want to remove the #+begin_example/#+end_example but I do not find any
header arguments that achieve that (I have tested almost all of them).
Moreover when I read =ob-core= code I do not understand why the function
=org-babel-examplify-region= (responsible for the add of example block)
is called since I set a raw results.
The only (bad) way I have found is to set the variable
=org-babel-min-lines-for-block-output= to nil but then I get big
troubles when exporting the result.
Can someone give some advice on how to get a pure raw results from a
source block ?
Thanks a lot for your help,
Xavier

Re: [O] Org-mode to feed a database
Vikas Rawal vikasli...@agrarianresearch.org writes: It is possible, but not worth the effort. Even with moderately experienced users, you will be amazed at how org-files can get mangled by users. In a recent course I taught, I used links for some data entry; the links stored data as properties in a headline. Even then a handful of users found some ways to delete headlines, modify what got stored, etc... As someone else mentioned, if Emacs is the input interface, widgets is the way to go. Otherwise, a webform is a much better idea. Alternatives include a PDF form, an MS Word or Excel form, or one of the online survey tools. This is, in all likelihood, a crazy idea. Please excuse me for that. I often need to get a number of people enter complex survey data into a database using some kind of forms. The forms I need are fairly complex (with several nested grids, for example). I need radio-buttons and drop-down menus-equivalents. I was thinking if it would be worth it to use Org-mode for data entry. The idea would be something like this. We have a template org file that is copied for each survey respondent. The template contains “blank” org tables and some source blocks. Responses are filled into the org tables, and then the source blocks are evaluated to feed the data into the database. You can version-control the whole thing so that different people can create these records and push it to a centralised git repository. Has anyone done anything like this? What has been the experience? There are two aspects that immediately come to my mind. 1. Is org adequately feature rich for such a scenario? There are two concerns I can think of right now. 1.1 Would feeding information from one Org table to another become too complicated? 1.2 Is there a way to build in tab-completion for columns in Org-table using pre-specified categories? 2. In my case, people who would enter the data into org files would not have used emacs before. So, there is a learning curve. Is it worth it? Or should one just build a web-based graphic application for such people to use?

Re: [O] org tables into R?
Hi Andreas,
Thanks for following up on this problem.
2015ko urtarrilak 4an, Andreas Leha-ek idatzi zuen:
I investigated and found that the culprit is an export filter I have
defined that replaces tabs with spaces:
--8---cut here---start-8---
(defun my-e-beamer-final-filter (contents backend info)
(replace-regexp-in-string \t contents))
(add-to-list 'org-export-filter-final-output-functions
'my-e-beamer-final-filter)
--8---cut here---end---8---
Now, I consider that a bug as well. I am not exporting anything, here.
But I am merely evaluating a code block. Export filters should not
interfere. Plus, it used to work (unfortunately, I do not have the time
to bisect right now).
So, why are export filters involved? And can that be disabled?
Recently(-ish), Nicolas updated the org-table functions to use the
export framework. One of the drawbacks of this approach (as you have
brought to our attention) is that export filters are invoked. This
should probably be disabled.
Another drawback is the detection of unexpanded macros (which will be
triggered e.g. if a tabular babel result has macro-like {{{text}}} in
it). A proof-of-concept patch for this is attached.

I wonder, though, whether the various exceptions like this that will
stack up will tip the balance towards its being simpler for org-table to
have its own set of functions that operate on the org-element parse
tree, but don’t invoke org-export code. For csv this would be something
like (pseudocode):
(org-element-mapconcat
(lambda (table-row)
(org-element-mapconcat
(lambda (table-cell)
(quote-for-csv (org-element-interpret table-cell))
table-row
,))

Nicolas, WDYT? If you prefer to continue using the export framework, I
can add some commentary to the attached patch and install it.

[O] [bug?] Different whitespace behavior between capture, and capture w. refile
Let's say I start with a .notes file that looks like this: #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE * Tasks * Refile Here * Other Stuff #+END_EXAMPLE with all the default capture templates. The only org-mode configuration I have is (org-blank-before-new-entry (quote ((heading) (plain-list-item as well as C-c c for capture. Everything else is default. This is on Emacs 24.4, and org-mode 8.2.10 Let's say I have another file called ~/Spike.org open, and I am capturing from it. This is not relevant to the example, but makes it clearer where the links are coming from. Then, I capture two items: C-c c t Capture Item 1 C-c C-c and C-c c t Capture Item 2 C-c C-c. Now, my .notes file looks like this: #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE * Tasks ** TODO Capture Item 1 [2015-01-04 Sun] [[file:~/Spike.org]] ** TODO Capture Item 2 [2015-01-04 Sun] [[file:~/Spike.org]] * Refile Here * Other Stuff #+END_EXAMPLE Note how there are no blank lines between the different capture items. Now, I capture two items, but instead of finishing the capture with C-c C-c, I refile right from the Capture window: C-c c t Refile Item 1 C-c C-w Refile here and C-c c t Refile Item 2 C-c C-w Refile here. Now, my .notes file looks like this: #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE * Tasks ** TODO Capture Item 1 [2015-01-04 Sun] [[file:~/Spike.org]] ** TODO Capture Item 2 [2015-01-04 Sun] [[file:~/Spike.org]] * Refile Here ** TODO Refile Item 1 [2015-01-04 Sun] [[file:~/Spike.org]] ** TODO Refile Item 2 [2015-01-04 Sun] [[file:~/Spike.org]] * Other Stuff #+END_EXAMPLE Note how refiling from the capture window introduced whitespace between items under Refile here, but finishing the capture doesn't. Needless to say, this inconsistency drives me mildly up the wall. I am currently looking into writing some sort of hook for org-after-refile-insert-hook, but exactly what to do there is unclear. Is there some configuration option I am missing? Thanks!

Thanks for your comments. -- Kyle From fc3a2b526a77e574c6b076d626cd35583ad5ecdf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyle Meyer k...@kyleam.com Date: Sun, 4 Jan 2015 22:18:40 -0500 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] org-agenda: Track last indirect buffer * lisp/org-agenda.el (org-agenda-tree-to-indirect-buffer): Record last indirect buffer for agenda. * lisp/org-agenda.el (org-agenda-quit): Delete window for org-agenda-last-indirect-buffer, not org-last-indirect-buffer. Introduce a new variable, org-agenda-last-indirect-buffer, that is specific for the agenda (and perhaps a particular agenda buffer, if org-agenda-sticky is set). This prevents org-agenda-quit from deleting a window if it is displaying a buffer that was created through a org-tree-to-indirect-buffer call outside of org-agenda-tree-to-indirect-buffer. Make org-agenda-Quit check for indirect buffer windows, like org-agenda-quit does. --- lisp/org-agenda.el | 24 +--- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/lisp/org-agenda.el b/lisp/org-agenda.el index 2fbfacc..6e2e953 100644 --- a/lisp/org-agenda.el +++ b/lisp/org-agenda.el @@ -2078,6 +2078,8 @@ (defvar org-agenda-last-prefix-arg nil) (defvar org-agenda-this-buffer-name nil) (defvar org-agenda-doing-sticky-redo nil) (defvar org-agenda-this-buffer-is-sticky nil) +(defvar org-agenda-last-indirect-buffer nil + Last buffer loaded by `org-agenda-tree-to-indirect-buffer'.)

Re: [O] Org-mode to feed a database
It is possible, but not worth the effort. Even with moderately experienced users, you will be amazed at how org-files can get mangled by users. In a recent course I taught, I used links for some data entry; the links stored data as properties in a headline. Even then a handful of users found some ways to delete headlines, modify what got stored, etc... Thanks, John. Vikas
