[O] Generating clock table for arbitrary date range
Is there any way to specify a start and end date for the :block property of a clock table? Lately I have often found myself submitting an invoice based upon my clock report on Friday evening, only to be called frantically on Saturday and having to put in additional hours (this should sound familiar to many programmers :)), which I then need to attribute to next week's clock table to be submitted on the following invoice. Is there an easy way to do this? -- A. Ryan Reynolds

Aha! Thank you. That works nicely. I had known about :tstart and :tend but I misunderstood their purpose.

I additionally use some regex to skip all internal buffers. Now this behaviour breaks when I visit a buffer with a .org file. How can I fix this? By default I believe the conflicting binding is set, in Org, to org-force-cycle-archived. If you unset that binding, it should not conflict, and hopefully swbuff will work correctly (I do not use swbuff so I cannot say for certain). -- A. Ryan Reynolds
Re: [O] Suggestion: Stackoverflow for Orgmode
I think on the whole that this is a good idea; I do wonder if it might harmfully divide the effort on the documentation rather than provide a complement to the manual and guide, but I think the best way to find out is just to try it and see what people use. If the existing FOSS designed to fill this niche are unacceptable to our purposes we can always make our own. Such a site would not be complicated to build, and I would be very willing to put in effort toward this goal. I do not know Elisp very well, which prevents me from contributing much to this project even though I depend heavily on Org-mode, but web programming I can contribute. -- A. Ryan Reynolds
Re: [O] CLOCKTABLE multiply time expended by hourly rate?
On Jul 20, 2011, at 4:38 PM, Daniel E. Doherty wrote: Hi all, I am trying to use orgmode to bill for time. My idea is to add a column that multiplies the elapsed time column by an hourly rate. Unfortunately, the elapsed time is interpreted (I believe) as a fraction in calc, so, for example, a time of 0:58 becomes a zero. Is there a way to make the elapsed time get formatted as a decimal, or a function to convert it to a decimal, so I can multiply the time by a decimal and get teh right answer. I also use clock tables in this way and would be very interested in such a feature. -- A. Ryan Reynolds
[O] Org table to CSV
I'm doing a lot of work with CSV files at the moment. I know I can convert a region of CSV to an org table with C-c | (and I do so frequently-- thanks for this highly useful feature!), but is there any way I can turn an org table back into CSV? I need to do this almost as frequently. -- A. Ryan Reynolds

That works well. Is there a way to have it convert in-place, the way C-c | works, rather than being sent to a different file? -- A. Ryan Reynolds
Re: [Orgmode] Bastien is going to become the maintainer of Org mode in January
Thank you so much for your tireless and dedicated service Carsten. Without your initiative my life, and the lives of many people I know, would be a lot messier!

Re: [Orgmode] An Org-mode clone for Vim
onethingwell.org just finished a week's worth of coverage on vim outliners. I don't use vim, so I'm not particularly invested, but introducing another one to the vim people might be a hard sell; there already seem to be quite a number of options available on that platform. On the other hand, if you can replicate all of Org's features I've no doubt you'll succeed in winning them over! And in any case, doing something for fun is a reward by itself. -- A.

Full install Based on existing instructions It might also be helpful to make note of the fact that some Linux distributions offer packages of newer versions of Org than the Emacs-included versions. For instance, on Debian testing, 7.01g is available to me in a package (and 7.01h if I install from unstable). I assume this probably trickles down to Ubuntu as well. This is the route I take because it keeps me relatively close to Org-mode developments without having to take the time to manage source code. -- A.

Re: [Orgmode] org-mode + pomodoro
I do this using Org-Mode and a kitchen timer. I clock in when I wind the timer, and clock out when it dings, instead of just marking with X's. To record distractions I keep a scratch buffer in org-mode open, although there may be a better way to capture distractions on the urgent and unplanned list using remember mode to file them away into a more organized system. I just haven't had time to read about it. I like the fact that the urgent unplanned items don't go anywhere unless I decide to file them though, because it keeps my to-do list cleaner that way. During my most distracted periods I tend to capture a lot of stray to-do items of only marginal utility. I'm not sure my personal workflow will work exactly right for anyone but myself (and it's still a work in progress for me too!), but I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have about it. -- A.
