[O] org-drill vocabulary and question about properties
Hello, I intend to use org-drill for learning vocabulary (german-spanish). Does anybody know a repository of such a vocabulary? As far as I know the inner workings of org-drill are placed in the :PROPERTIES: section of the item. When I use :DRILL_CARD_TYPE: twosided then the item gets questioned some time in german and some time in spanish. But the PROPERTIES are still only once there. If I want to track the learning in both directions separately, I need to make two items for one word, once german-spanish and once spanish-german. Am I right? Sincerely Gerhard
[O] emacs 24.4 on windows doesn't load elpa version of org-mode
Hi, I use Emacs on Win 7 Professional. The versions are GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2013-03-17 on MARVIN Org-mode version 8.2.10 (8.2.10-18-g59111b-elpaplus @ c:/Users/Gerhard/AppData/Roaming/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20141117/) I saw that emacs 24.4 for windows is available (emacs-24.4-bin-i686-pc-mingw32.zip) but when I start it and check the versions, I see the following GNU Emacs 24.4.1 (i686-pc-mingw32) of 2014-10-24 on LEG570 Org-mode version 8.2.10 (release_8.2.10 @ c:/bin_portable/emacs-24.4-bin-i686-pc-mingw32/share/emacs/24.4/lisp/org/) I did not change anything in my configuration file. Why does emacs 24.4 not load the elpa version of org-mode?

Ista, you made me check my .emacs file again. Thanks for the hint, but .emacs is loaded in both versions. My agenda files were set correctly. But the lines (require 'package) (package-initialize) did not work with my new emacs. Then I moved those two lines at the very beginning of .emacs and now it works. That's enough for me at the moment Thanks for helping. Am 19.11.2014 um 14:13 schrieb Gerhard: Hi, I use Emacs on Win 7 Professional.

Of course, that hope was based on considerable naivete and an imperfect understanding of how Org mode is connected with the rest of the Emacs world. FWIW, I still think it would be good to have our documentation in our home-made format. Of course, there's the problem of backporting documentation fixes coming from Emacs developers, but we might find volunteers to take care of it. Also, it doesn't happen very frequently. There may be other road blocks that I'm not aware of, but if there is none, I suggest to think about the feasibility of this project again. now I know more about the history and status of this project, thanks to your answers. Although it looks to me as a good starting point, It also seems to take quite a bit of knowledge about many things to go on here, so I am not the one who could help. But maybe the volunteers can be found. Regards, Gerhard
[O] Example text and source code in agenda - orgmanual.org typo
I was searching for the Org Mode Manual as org-mode file, but it was not easy to find. Then I discovered orgmanual.org by TS Dye https://github.com/tsdye/orgmanual. I remembered a thread about it in this mailing list. It seems to be not completely finished, but I like it. My expertise in org-mode is very small and I wanted to play around with that file. So I added it to the agenda. Building the agenda was slow and after a while I found out that it was because of typos in orgmanual.org (org-float instead of diary-float, see below), but also I did not expect dates or code from example text or source code snippets to appear on the agenda, but it does. Can I prevent that dates in example text like #+begin_example 2014-04-08 Di 15:54 #+end_example appear in the agenda? In orgmanual.org I discovered two examples that seem to contain typos. Probably it was intended to write diary-float but it is written org-float. (In 8.1 Timestamps, deadlines, and scheduling, and in 8.3 Deadlines and scheduling) And in the second it is written (diary-float t 42) instead of (diary-float t 4 2), I guess. Which is also in the original manual (info document) a typo, I guess. After correcting these issues in orgmanual.org, the agenda builds fast and no error messages like Bad sexp at line 5464 in /home/gsqual/git/orgmanual/orgmanual.org: (org-float t 4 2) appear any more.

I really like org-mode and I like watching the mailing list and seeing how much work is done for org-mode every day. Keep up the good work!
[O] Bug in orgtbl-to-generic (did only show up in Gmane list)
Hi, Using my new and unregistered email-address the message did only show up in gmane list (http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/68915). And a solution was provided there. I did not see the change in the repository yet, so I send this message here to the original mailing list.
[O] orgtbl-to-generic with lfmt (wrong usage or bug)
Hi, I was happy to find out about the possibility to convert a table into something else, but I struggle with obtaining a particular result. I have addresses in a table and want them to be formatted for printing. This is where I am so far. #+ORGTBL: SEND sofar orgtbl-to-generic :lfmt %s | Vorname | Nachname | Straße | PLZ | Ort | |-++-+---+-| | Karl| Mustermann | Musterstraße 10 | 12345 | Musterstadt | | Sofie | Musterfrau | Ortsstraße 2| 54321 | Meinestadt | #+BEGIN RECEIVE ORGTBL sofar (Vorname Nachname Straße PLZ Ort) (Karl Mustermann Musterstraße 10 12345 Musterstadt) (Sofie Musterfrau Ortsstraße 2 54321 Meinestadt) #+END RECEIVE ORGTBL sofar But I would like to have #+BEGIN RECEIVE ORGTBL wished Vorname Nachname Straße PLZ Ort Karl Mustermann Musterstraße 10 12345 Musterstadt Sofie Musterfrau Ortsstraße 2 54321 Meinestadt #+END RECEIVE ORGTBL wished Here (http://www.canonical.org/~kragen/tmp/org-mode-notes) kragen says, that it works in orgtbl-mode but not in org-mode. I would be happy, if you could tell me a way to get what I want. But I think also, that the help text on :lfmt in orgtbl-to-generic doesn't say what happens in my case, so there might be a bug. :lfmt Format for entire line, with enough %s to capture all fields. If this is present, :lstart, :lend, and :sep are ignored. Regards Gerhard
