[O] malformed function
Greetings. I know this is technically an emacs problem and not an Orgmode problem, but maybe you guys will see the error that I can't find. I have two different machines. One is a Linux machine running Orgmode 9.1.13 under Emacs 25.3.1 , and one is a Windows 10 machine running Orgmode 9.1.13 under Emacs 24.5.1 . Both have the same .emacs file as far as I can tell. The Linux machine is getting this error: Warning (bytecomp): ‘(extract-window (line) (let ((start (get-text-property 1 (quote time-of-day) line)) (dur (get-text-property 1 (quote duration) line))) (cond ((and start dur) (cons start (org-time-from-minutes (+ dur (org-time-to-minutes start) (start start) (t nil’ is a malformed function As far as I can tell, the parens and quotes are all matched properly, and the Windows machine is not displaying this error.

First question -- it sounds like you are doing very specific research with very specific tools, software, equations, and things like that. Are you sure that free software exists that will do what you want? For example, good luck finding free software that will do your taxes. > Do you just nod and wave your freedom good bye? Second question -- you keep using that word "free". Are you really "free" in this situation? You said you are getting tuition covered and a stipend. The way employment typically works is that, in return for salary and/or compensation, you give your full devotion to your employer's wants and needs instead of your own. Using your employer's software is not a huge jump. I don't mean this as a personal attack. That's how it works. I am "free" to wear a t-shirt that says "F**K THE POLICE" on it, but the person who pays my salary would prefer if, for 40 hours each week, I wear a different shirt. I am "free" to ignore his request. He is "free" to stop paying my salary. So I'm afraid that's my answer.

[O] emacs , windows, gpg, org-crypt
Greetings.
I set this all up years ago, I just got a new computer, I'm not an expert
with Windows, and I've been unable to find my problem with Google.
I have Windows 10, I have emacs, I have Org 9.0.3 (yes, I need to update),
and I have GPG4Win. I have entries in my .emacs file:
(require 'org-crypt)
(org-crypt-use-before-save-magic)
(setq org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance (quote ("crypt")))
[...]
(setq org-crypt-key "")
;; GPG key to use for encryption
[...]
(global-set-key "\C-cd" 'org-decrypt-entry)
(global-set-key "\C-ce" 'org-encrypt-entry)
But when I try to decrypt something, I get this error:
Searching for program: no such file or directory, gpg
The only responses I can find are to add gpg to my %PATH% , but
I don't think my employer's GPO will let me.
I was hoping to find a place in org-crypt where "gpg" is defined so that
I can specify a full path instead, but as yet, I haven't found it.
Can somebody give me a push?

[O] org-crypt: GPG error: "no usable configuration"
Greetings.
I'm running Orgmode 9.0.3 under emacs 25.1.2 on Microsoft Windows 7.
I think this is really an emacs issue and not an orgmode issue; but
other than orgmode, I don't use emacs, and I don't know where else to
turn.
For a year or so, I've been using org-crypt like this:
(setq exec-path '("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\GNU\\GnuPG"))
(require 'org-crypt)
(org-crypt-use-before-save-magic)
(setq org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance (quote ("crypt")))
(setq org-crypt-key "65B20F70")
(global-set-key "\C-cd" 'org-decrypt-entry)
(global-set-key "\C-ce" 'org-encrypt-entry)
...and it's worked fine, until I recently updated from emacs 24.5 to 25.1
and orgmode from 8.3.5 to 9.0.3 .
Now I get this error:
GPG error: "no usable configuration", OpenPGP
Apparently, it might be related to this bug
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=24229
but the eventual work-around:
>

makes no sense to me at all.

There are similar functions org-latex-export-to-pdf and

I have a few items in my org file that are tagged ARCHIVE. They show up grey in my emacs window.

However, if I sit the cursor on the actual headline and hit TAB, I get the same message, but the subtree is also expanded.

[O] export to HTML with nbsp
Greetings. I tried searching for this, because I think I've seen it before, but searching for nbsp brings up dozens of false-positives. So my underlying problem is that I'd like to combine markups ~commandname option1 /option2/~ and end up with options2 being both monospace and italic. I couldn't get the borders and prematch and postmatch working correctly. I also failed to figure out how to create my own monospace-and-italic markup style. So I eventually gave up and settled for ~commandname option1 /option2/ \nbsp~ which works great inside emacs, and works with export to ASCII. But when I export to HTML, the \nbsp is not being converted to like the docs say it should. It is just being left as \nbsp . I just noticed this comment in the doc Text in the code and verbatim string is not processed for Org mode specific syntax, it is exported verbatim. However, again, \nbsp is properly processed when I export to ASCII. So I'm confused as to why it's different for export to HTML. Am I doing something wrong? Or is there something I need to do to make this export correctly? Thanks. --hymie!

[O] html preamble
So my next task is to learn about the HTML preamble. From reading the docs, it looks like all of my org files have to share a single HTML preamble, which is set in my .emacs file through either the org-html-preamble variable, the org-html-preamble-format variable, or the org-publish-project-alist variable. There is no way to tell a specific Org file This is your HTML preamble. Is that correct? Why are there two different variables org-html-preamble-format and org-html-preamble if the org-html-preamble variable can perform all of the tasks of org-html-preamble-format and more? Finally, how do I get the current date into the preamble? I see that I can specifically set a date, and I see the current date in a comment at the top of my exported HTML, but I can't figure out how to get the current date out of the comment and into my preamble.

[O] export code with backslashes
Greetings. I'm only asking this question because it seems that Orgmode can do anything, although I admit that what I'm asking for is probably outside the normal scope. I have snips of code in my org files, denoted as ~code~. I prefer ~code~ to BEGIN_SRC blocks, because I don't like the big grey text boxes in my exported documents. Sometimes my code is very long and includes long lists of options and arguments and such; for example: ~useradd -U -G wheel -p '$6$wcMRrkcdGeNHLT5b$password0ISmGZSsILOyV/WJnpassword//' accountname~ This is all one line. Then I use C-c C-e t A to export this into an ascii buffer, the sole reason being to remove the tilde characters and provide me an easy cut-n-paste option. I end up with this: useradd -U -G wheel -p newline '$6$wcMRrkcdGeNHLT5b$password0ISmGZSsILOyV/WJnpassword//' newline accountname newline I would really really really like it if, in addition to the newlines that are added, a backslash could be added as well. Hey, this is a line enclosed in tildes. I'm going to add line-breaks. Each line-break except for the one at the end needs a backslash useradd -U -G wheel -p \newline '$6$wcMRrkcdGeNHLT5b$password0ISmGZSsILOyV/WJnpassword//' \newline accountname newline Is such a thing possible? --hymie!

[O] BUG? Text in the code and verbatim string is not processed
So the documentation says You can make words *bold*, /italic/, _underlined_, =verbatim= and ~code~, and, if you must, ‘+strike-through+’. Text in the code and verbatim string is not processed for Org mode specific syntax, it is exported verbatim. However, that is not the behavior I am seeing. In this construct: - ~cd ~/test~ - ~cp foo foo1~ The tilde in the path ~/test is hidden when org-hide-emphasis-markers is turned on. Maybe that is confusing org, so I changed it to this construct: - =cd ~/test= - ~cp foo foo1~ In this case, the word cd is formatted as verbatim, but the word /test along with the - on the next line are all formatted as code. Am I misunderstanding what is supposed to happen, or is this a bug? --hymie!

Also, add shell to the loaded babel languages, so that you can execute the code and get the results right away in org: No need for copy-n-paste, just do C-c C-c where you have your commands. I think you are making the incorrect assumption that the machine on which I maintain my Org files is the same machine that I wish to execute commands on. Try copying this example into an org file, it should fontify it nicely, both in the org file and in the html exported. If my commnds were all 8 characters long or less, it would be fine. Some of my commands look like this: adduser username -d /data/chroot/home/username -s /usr/bin/rssh -m -k /dev/null -g rssh useradd -U -G wheel -p '$6$wcMRrkcdGeNHLT5c$0s4qezb00ISmGZSsILOyV/WJn3RnuZPkSEknwoSZ22HvbgkBTe4TQwCz/mpG.3zby.1Jwnmtsq1B.uCbyg5l./' username pssh -x '-q -t -t' -I -i --hosts hosts_linux_rhel6 'sudo -S wget puppet/puppet/pub/system_patch.pl -O /usr/local/bin/system_patch.pl' hostnamefile While I admit that the useradd command is an extreme example, this becomes horribly ambiguous: adduser username -d /data/chroot/home/username -s /usr/bin/rssh -m -k /dev/null -g rssh pssh -x '-q -t -t' -I -i --hosts hosts_linux_rhel6 'sudo -S wget puppet/puppet/pub/system_patch.pl -O /usr/local/bin/system_patch.pl' hostnamefile --hymie!http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymiehy...@lactose.homelinux.net
[O] tasks, clocks, and notes
Greetings. I have a funny feeling I asked this before, but I can't remember and I couldn't find it in a search. So let's say I have a task -- fix a computer. I add some memory, I test the new memory and that doesn't solve the problem, and then I finally figure out it was the video driver. I could log that this way: * fix the computer ** added memory to the machine CLOCK: [2015-01-28 Wed 12:36] -- [2015-01-28 Wed 13:14] ** memory didn't resolve the problem CLOCK: [2015-01-28 Wed 13:28] -- [2015-01-28 Wed 13:53] ** finally found it -- it was the video driver CLOCK: [2015-01-29 Thu 09:12] -- [2015-01-29 The 11:30] but then my Agenda will have pretty disjoint notes about added memory to the machine. I'd prefer that the Agenda either say fix the computer or (even better) fix the computer -- added memory to the machine. Is there something I can do that would add notes to an individual clock entry, something like * fix the computer CLOCK: [2015-01-28 Wed 12:36] -- [2015-01-28 Wed 13:14] added memory to the machine CLOCK: [2015-01-28 Wed 13:28] -- [2015-01-28 Wed 13:53] memory didn't resolve the problem CLOCK: [2015-01-29 Thu 09:12] -- [2015-01-29 The 11:30] finally found it -- it was the video driver that would still leave the clock lines attached to the main task, but still keep some individual notes about the various pieces of the task? --hymie!
Re: [O] Other editors supporting Org-Mode
In our last episode, the evil Dr. Lacto had captured our hero, Manuel Schneckenreither manuel.schneckenreit...@student.uibk.ac.at, who said: Hi fellows, I couldn't find anything on the web about it. Therefore, I like to ask you if anyone knows a program (another editor) which supports Org mode. I would suggest, rather than adapting more editors to support Org, creating a stand-alone program that compiles and manages Org functions separate from the act of editing them. The same way that I edit a TeX file, and then run tex to process it into a DVI file that I can view; or the same way that I edit an HTML file, and then pull it up in Firefox to view it. I can edit my Org file, then I can run my Org processor and view the file, view my agenda... I realize that there is a lot of functionality that gets lost, but I think that much of what is lost is shortcuts. I can easily, for example, change the word TODO to DONE in my editor, or add a SCHEDULED line... On the other hand, you already have emacs as the supported Org editor, while adding do-it-yourself support for other editors as well. It just seems to me that writing Org For Emacs, Org For Vim, Org For Notepad, Org For Whatever Mac Uses, Org for Vile ... is duplicating too much effort that a single Org For Java might simplify. Anyway, just thinking out loud. --hymie!http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymiehy...@lactose.homelinux.net ---
[O] Export to Latex, multi-line headlines
So the more I use orgmode, the more I'm enjoying it. I'm now learning how to export my notes into LaTeX and/or PDF. (I'm a TeX user, so I don't know all of the intricacies of LaTeX, but I can manage if I have to.) Anyway, to the question. When I have a long line in my notes, I keep it formatted like this for easy reading: *** This is a very long line which is way too long to fit on a single line so I have it broken up into smaller lines so that I can read it but still have the indentation lined up, so it's obvious (to me) that this is all designed to be a single sentence. There is a hard return at the end of each line, because using emacs's standard word-wrapping would put the text into a left-aligned paragraph and I lose my outline structure. The coloring of the second through fourth lines doesn't match the coloring of the first line, so it appears that Org considers this to be a single-line headline with some supporting text underneath it. When I export to LaTeX, that concept continues. The phrase This is a very long line which is way too long to fit on a single line is my headline, in big bold letters, while the rest of the text is below it in smaller letters (formatted as a single paragraph). Is there a way that I can specify, either to Orgmode in general or to the LaTeX exporter specifically, that I want this to be considered a single headline? Alternative question -- is there a way that Orgmode (or emacs) can combine line-wrapping with indent levels, so that if I were to write this all as a single line, the word-wrapping would put the text in the correct column? --hymie!http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymiehy...@lactose.homelinux.net ---

[O] agenda time grid -- default time slot lines
Greetings. I have two questions about the default time slots in the Agenda. First question When I open the Agenda Day View, I get a bunch of blank lines at the default times 8am, 10am, 12noon, 2pm, 4pm, and so on. Friday 3 October 2014 8:00.. 8:50.. now - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 10:00.. 12:00.. 14:00.. 16:00.. 18:00.. 20:00.. Then I did a few tasks, so my agenda for today looks like this: Friday 3 October 2014 8:00.. tasks: 8:45- 9:10 Clocked: (0:25) first attempt failed tasks: 9:10- 9:45 Clocked: (0:35) troubleshoot tasks: 9:45-10:45 Clocked: (1:00) restore image 10:00.. tasks: 10:45-11:25 Clocked: (0:40) second attempt 12:00.. 13:20.. now - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 14:00.. Is there a way that I can suppress the 10:00 line in this case? None of the org-agenda- variables that I found seemed to do this. Second question My Agenda for a-week-from-next-Tuesday looks like this: Tuesday14 October 2014 8:00.. 10:00.. 12:00.. tasks: 14:00-15:00 IT-Security meeting 14:00.. 16:00.. Assuming that I cannot suppress the 14:00 line in this case ... shouldn't the task line be **below** the 14:00 line? I can force it by changing the meeting time from 14:00 to 14:01, but it seems like this is the wrong way to list them. The meeting is not between 12:00 and 14:00. It's between 14:00 and 16:00. Thanks. --EbH

[O] inconsistency -- agenda, jump to specific day
So I think I found an inconsistency in the agenda and/or in the docs. Maybe it's just my lack of understanding as usual, but here goes. Emacs : GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2013-03-17 on MARVIN Package: Org-mode version 8.2.7c (8.2.7c-dist @ c:/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/emacs-24.3/lisp/org/) According to the docuemntation: v d or short d (org-agenda-day-view) v w or short w (org-agenda-week-view) v t (org-agenda-fortnight-view) v m (org-agenda-month-view) v y (org-agenda-year-view) v SPC (org-agenda-reset-view) Switch to day/week/month/year view. When switching to day or week view, this setting becomes the default for subsequent agenda refreshes. Since month and year views are slow to create, they do not become the default. A numeric prefix argument may be used to jump directly to a specific day of the year, ISO week, month, or year, respectively. For example, 32 d jumps to February 1st, 9 w to ISO week number 9. d, however, does not work that way. Using a numberic prefix before d jumps to that specific day of the **month**, not of the year. So when I'm looking at the current agenda (for week 15 Sep - 21 Sep), 5d takes me to Sept 5th, 26d takes me to Sept 26th, 35d takes me to October 5th (the 35th day of September). Note that the current month had changed, so now, 5d takes me to October 5th, not September 5th any more. To me that's another inconsistency, but I could see where it's a feature and not a bug. This is a problem for me because my employer actually **uses** Day Of Year. So something happening today (19 sep 2014), I would log it as 2014-262. Being able to jump directly to day 262 would be a very handy feature for me. Then, the documentation says When setting day, week, or month view, a year may be encoded in the prefix argument as well. For example, 200712 w will jump to week 12 in 2007. If such a year specification has only one or two digits, it will be mapped to the interval 1938-2037. This does not work with day. 1407w indeed takes me to the 7th week of 2014. From there, 1407d takes me to December 8th 2017, which I haven't counted but I think is the 1407th day of February 2014. --hymie!http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymiehy...@lactose.homelinux.net
[O] list of agenda files in a file
Greetings. I'd like to add my _archive files to my agenda. I don't need the entries clogging up my day-to-day .org files, but I want the items to still appear in my agenda. I found this in the org manual: The information to be shown is normally collected from all agenda files, the files listed in the variable org-agenda-files[98]. [98] If the value of that variable is not a list, but a single file name, then the list of agenda files will be maintained in that external file. So based on that, I put this in my .emacs file: (setq org-agenda-files (quote (~/org/agenda.file.list))) but I cannot seem to get this to work. When that file has a plain old list of filenames in it, I get an error Agenda file ~/org/agenda.file.list is not in `org-mode' When that file is empty, then there is nothing in my agenda. I then tried using C-c [ to add a file to the list, and I end up with '(org-agenda-files (quote (~/org/file.org ~/org/agenda.file.list))) in my .emacs file. Am I misunderstanding? The manual sounds like I can maintain a file that contains a list of files that the agenda should use. But I can't seem to make that happen, either automatically or manually. What am I doing wrong? --hymie!http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymiehy...@lactose.homelinux.net

Re: [O] clock-in clock-out problems
OK. I downloaded emacs v 24.4.50.1 . I think I still had the problem the first time I ran it, but now I'm not sure if maybe I ran the old version by mistake. Anyway, I commented out my entire .emacs file, run 24.4.50.1, and the clock persistence worked. I restored my .emacs a few lines at a time, and it continued working the entire time. I restored my .emacs file, 24.4.50.1 was still working correctly. Then for giggles I tried 24.3, got the error, returned to 24.4.50.1, and no error. Then I removed 24.3 completely and installed 24.4.50.1 , and I haven't had the error since then.

Greetings. I've discovered a problem with clocking-in and clocking-out.

Re: [O] MobileOrg documentation?
In our last episode, the evil Dr. Lacto had captured our hero, Eric Abrahamsen e...@ericabrahamsen.net, who said: I use it, but only in one direction -- computer to tablet. And mostly just for having meeting/appointment data with me as I wander around looking for whoever it is I'm supposed to meet. I don't do the other direction (tablet to computer). Syncing has caused me enough difficulties in the past that I'm only comfortable using uni-directional syncing, not bi-directional. Ditto. Syncing works great computer-to-tablet. Going tablet-to-computer, not so much. I'm not sure if the problem is * my unfamiliarity with OrgMode * my unfamiliarity with WebDav * permissions are too strict * MobileOrg not creating the sync files correctly * OrgMode not processing the sync files correctly but it's just not that important to me right now. I have my notes (mostly tasks) available, and that's what counts. I can update them whenever. --hymie!http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymiehy...@lactose.homelinux.net
[O] More detail in the agenda logbook?
Hi again. So I've got a few repetitive tasks, for example * TODO machine backups ** TODO machine 1 *** TODO create backup *** TODO copy backup to DVD ** TODO machine 2 *** TODO create backup *** TODO copy backup to DVD ** TODO machine 3 *** TODO create backup *** TODO copy backup to DVD ** TODO machine 4 *** TODO create backup *** TODO copy backup to DVD It's the same set of tasks for each machine. When I complete these tasks and look at the Agenda Logbook, I see this: State: (DONE) DONE create backup State: (DONE) DONE create backup State: (DONE) DONE create backup State: (DONE) DONE create backup State: (DONE) DONE copy backup to DVD State: (DONE) DONE copy backup to DVD State: (DONE) DONE copy backup to DVD State: (DONE) DONE copy backup to DVD I'd really like to see something along the lines of State: (DONE) DONE machine backups / machine 1 / create backup State: (DONE) DONE machine backups / machine 2 / create backup State: (DONE) DONE machine backups / machine 3 / create backup State: (DONE) DONE machine backups / machine 4 / create backup or State: (DONE) DONE machine backups machine 1 create backup State: (DONE) DONE machine backups machine 2 create backup State: (DONE) DONE machine backups machine 3 create backup State: (DONE) DONE machine backups machine 4 create backup Is this possible? --hymie!http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymiehy...@lactose.homelinux.net
[O] Agenda, Deadline, DONE
Greetings. I'm new to OrgMode, and I'm still working my way through. It has a lot of the old functionality and features of the PalmPilot Bonsai program, which I miss terribly, and I hope you take that as a compliment. Anyway, I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or I just don't yet understand the OrgMode way. I have a TODO that looks like this (I had to pull out the details, of course): ** DONE task number 3 SCHEDULED: 2014-07-30 - State DONE from TODO [2014-07-30 Wed 14:47] DEADLINE: 2014-08-08 In my Agenda, I see this: Friday 8 August 2014 file: Deadline: DONE task number 3 It seems to me that, if the task is already completed, then I no longer care about the deadline. It's done. So I'd rather not see it in the Agenda. I guess I could just remove the deadline from the task itself, but I kinda like having the historical info (that I finished a week and a half early). Is there a way to remove deadlines for DONE tasks from the Agenda? hymie! hy...@lactose.homelinux.net
