Someone has indeed: https://github.com/rexim/org-cliplink It's designed around a linux system, but I am using it just fine on my mac. If you are not on either of those OSs it might still be a good starting point. Alternately/additionally, if you are on a mac,

I guess I need more information. For example, what is C-c C-v v doing exactly? Then C-x C-e? And M-x (symbol-function 'myelsquare) doesn't work. Again, #+name: myelsquare #+header: :var x=0 #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var x=0 (defun myelsquare (x) (* x x)) #+end_src is Lisp code where the

Hi, Thanks for looking at this. I’ll definitely use this. Alex Branham writes: > + (setq-local prettify-symbols-alist org-prettify-alist) Hmm, wouldn’t this "break" the "normal" usage of prettify-symbols-mode? I guess it would be better to simply add symbols to

An alternative, which isn’t as neat as you would like, would be to set up the 3 days as separate events, with 7-day repeats. Best wishes, Brian > On 6 Apr 2018, at 15:16, Nick Dokos wrote: > > Cecil Westerhof writes: > >> There is something I want

Re: [O] Schedule with a duration

You can use effort estimates for this. They are covered in the manual here: https://orgmode.org/manual/Effort-estimates.html#Effort-estimates After assigning an effort estimate to a task, you can filter all tasks with an estimate less-than, equal-to, or greater-than a specified number of

[O] Schedule with a duration

Is it possible to schedule a task on a day without a time, but have a duration? I have several tasks that are not bound to a time, but will be done when I have some spare time. It would be handy if there was a way the estimated duration of those tasks so I can choose the right one. And in

[O] Bug: Modifying org-latex-pdf-process doesn't modify the async export behaviour

Hi, I've encountered an issue trying to write a function to toggle between two org-latex-pdf-process states (short & long). The function works as intended when using synchronous export (the PDF is created with the appropriate number of steps), but it doesn't work with asynchronous export
