By coincidence just today I had the same need to move or rotate columns left/right, without affecting the other rows above and below. Because I need this repeatedly I wrote two in-row functions derived from org-table-move-column, without the need anymore of splitting and joining the table like above. It supports only the direction left/right. The direction up/down Gustav asked for would be harder to implement but as a workaround you can still transpose http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html#transpose-table and use the in-row left/right. from another thread: On Mon, Nov 21, 2011 at 14:31, Daniel Martins daniel...@gmail.com wrote: The feature of remove/add cell is quite important.

[O] TABLES: aesthetics on columns
I have two questions on (possibly) improving aesthetics on columns when editing org tables. Following the thread on table editing, I have a minor issue with editing org-mode for Latex generation (which I do most of the time!). I have a table with several columns which are e.g. integer numbers and the headings are single variables such as a,b,c, M,k etc it is OK but I want to include sometimes Greek terms and subscripts such as \lambda or $\delta_\kappa$ and the columns are not so nice to see and edit due to the different spacings In Latex I could use \def \def\ll{$\lambda$} \def\dk{$\delta_\kappa$} and the use \ll and \dk on the headings is quite nice (despite the generally horrendous aspect of Latex tables when compared with the clean, neat, simple and effective counterpart in org-mode). So I have the first question: 1) Can I do the same in org-mode i.e. a previous (and possibly local) definition or long variable befopre putting them in a table? The other (maybe superfluous) question is 2) Can I locally define a table as completely in math mode? So I could type e.g. A) |---+---+---+---| | | M | l | k | |---+---+---+---| | M | - | | | | l | | - | | | k | | | - | |---+---+---+---| Instead of B) |-+-+-+-| | | $M$ | $l$ | $k$ | |-+-+-+-| | $M$ | - | | | | $l$ | | - | | | $k$ | | | - | |-+-+-+-| and when I export a table like A) to Latex I have the aspect of B) instead?

On the one hand, I do agree that (simple) PDF documents are written very easily with Org-mode. But on the other hand you are going to add just another layer. This means that you probably end up wanting this LaTeX feature in Org-mode, that other handy LaTeX feature too and so forth. In my point of view, if you leave the basic stuff, you should stick to LaTeX. And I do have good news to you: You are very fortune because Emacs does have the IMHO most advanced editor support for LaTeX: AucTeX (with all of its extensions like preview-latex and RefTeX). I plan to use Org-mode as an outline tool for larger documents, where the basic structure evolves, keywords are moved from one part to the other.

I have the opposite view. I did not tried yet the code because I am a naive git user and worry about messing things up adding another complex branch. However I must say that all my lists (and I have a lot of them!) do not satisfy me completely. The problem of breaking indentation and changing patterns in the middle of lists is often annoying. I am willing to have some work to rearrange all my lists if the implementation is changing the viewpoint we have about lists (therefore turning future impriovements easier) and the code is intrisically coherent as I think Nicolas code is.

Re: [Orgmode] Google calendar to org mode script and a feature request for agenda
Eric, Your awk seems to get timed appts in GMT How can I adapt it to GMT-3 Daniel 2010/6/29 Eric S Fraga ucec...@ucl.ac.uk: Hello, I finally got myself an Android phone (and am loving it, especially with an all you can eat data plan :-). I have tried mobileorg for Android but it's obviously early days and it's actually not really what I want. However, I am very happy with the Google syncing provided by the phone, both for email and for the calendar. This has caused me to revisit the possibility of a smoother integration between Google's calendar and org-mode. First, I have created an awk script (yes, I'm dating myself: I do use awk in preference to perl et al.) which allows me to convert the iCal export from Google calendar to a sequence of org headlines (see attached). It's a preliminary version and seems to translate what I need: simple day and timed events, mostly those that I will tend to do on the phone as opposed to when I'm at my computer. I'm not trying for a comprehensive translation program here... but I'm putting it on the list in case anybody finds it useful. I use this script as follows: wget [address specified by google for my calendar] -- basic.ics awk -f ical2org.awk basic.ics googlecalendar.org this appends any entries in my specific google calendar to the given org file. When I go the other way (creating an ics file from org), I import the org items into a different calendar on google. When entries have been synced, I typically delete the original entries placed in google to avoid them being downloaded over and over again [1]. * A feature request: time prompt for insert diary agenda function Anyway, my increased use of google's calendar, has highlighted a short-coming (?) of the agenda view (or more strictly speaking, the iCal exporter): entries in which the time of appointment, say, is on the headline but the date is on the following line, say, get converted to day events as opposed to day+time events. I.e. something like * 11am meeting with colleages 2010-06-30 Wed does not get exported as a timed event. Obviously, the easy solution is to put the time in the date stamp. However, I like using the insert diary function in the agenda view for defining appointments and this doesn't allow the time to be specified other than in a headline. Would it be possible to enhance the insert diary function to prompt for a time (and while we're at it, tags as well)? Thanks, eric Footnotes: [1] it may be possible to use the unique ID for each event to avoid creating duplicates... something to look at in the future. -- Eric S Fraga GnuPG: 8F5C 279D 3907 E14A 5C29 570D C891 93D8 FFFC F67D ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

The script indeed does not translate the times to the local time zone. Google outputs (in the basic.ics file) times in GMT. However, it also includes the time zone information but my awk script ignores that information. The script also ignores the end time for timed events. Obviously time for a v2 of this script! let me have a think about this and I'll see if I can do something a bit more intelligent (at least for Linux systems where possibly compatible time zone information can be found in /usr/share/zoninfo/*) and fix up the end times as well. -- Eric S Fraga GnuPG: 8F5C 279D 3907 E14A 5C29 570D C891 93D8 FFFC F67D ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Debate about One clock per user, but user is identified

I haven't used any of the clocking features, so I won't speak to that side of this issue, however, I have been using org-mode files as a point of collaboration on a couple of projects (including org-babel [1]) and I think a generalization of something like your proposed `org-user-identifier' variable could be very useful for many of the org meta-data items associated with headlines. For example, it would be great to record the user responsible for every TODO state change, so that something like ** DONE Org-babel should work well when indented - State DONE from TODO [2010-06-10 Thu 15:48] would instead be ** DONE Org-babel should work well when indented - State DONE from TODO by eschulte [2010-06-10 Thu 15:48] I think this would be very helpful, and anything that encourages the spread of Org-mode usage through co-workers is a big win.

Re: [Orgmode] Displaying day-resources (or a secondary time-line)
Sven, I cannot help but I reinforce the need of something as proposed by you. I really miss these secondary apointments and tried to find something similar a couple of months ago. Unfortunately, I gave up. Maybe they should appear as an option overlapping our appts or not. These secondary agendas include third parties agendas and they are not so easy to add. Using tags is easy to remove them in a specific agenda view BUT the default agenda becomes quite messy. Maybe we could add different files to each agenda : secretary.org, Friend1.org Boss.org Wife.org etc but we need a practical way to add or remove them or select just one or a couple of them to show intersections. Google Calendar could be an inspiration of what I meant. Daniel 2010/5/11 Sven Bretfeld sven.bretf...@gmx.ch Hi to all I don't want to reinforce my request.

In fact, I have just found a pen with an internal mechanism which turns it long enough when I write and short enough to do not pierce my trousers. If you do such a miracle I would be glad to try (not in a beta phase!). But I feel the efforts will be hardly rewarded. The write process is good for the mind and is prone of errors. When we transcript the text to an editor (in fact to THE editor) we correct some mistakes. Anyway, keep in touch!

Not wanting to call it silly :-), but I think the major ad- vantage of any electronic thingy compared to pen and paper is that you can rearrange the structure and correct any mis- takes you make.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: suggestions of Android smartphones
2010/4/19 Matthew Jones m...@matburt.net: Maybe I misunderstood what you meant about the swipe feature. There is a keyboard called Swype which is fairly overrated. Sorry for the misspelling and confusion! I can't comment on how well or if a bluetooth keyboard would work... I think if I were going to go to the trouble of carrying around a keyboard I would rather just carry my netbook. This is a good point. And carrying my netbook is exactly what I am doing right now! However, for exceptional cases (eg a trip) it would be interesting to have some comfort while writing a long text in the hotel.

Under linux, that system default is the mailcap database, but I have no idea how to configure that. (It doesn't even appear to exist on my system.) But we can tell Org directly what to do with PDF files: take a look at the variable org-file-apps (M-x customize-variable org-file-apps). Each entry in this list consists of (selector, action) pairs where the action tells Org how to open a file, and the selector (in most cases a regular expression matched against the file name) specifies what kind of files to open in this way. Add the following entry: Extension: \.pdf\' Command:evince %s Links to PDF files should now open in evince. If you pull the current git version of Org, you could add a second entry: Extension: \.pdf::\([0-9]+\)\' Command:evince %s -p %1 This would allow you to link to a specific page of a PDF like this: [[file:/path/to/document.pdf::21]] (Shameless plug for a patch of mine that just got accepted.)

Daniel PS Keep us informed... 2010/2/26 Matthew Jones m...@matburt.net Sorry if this double posts, had forgotten which email address I had signed up for on the mailing list. Hey folks, I've been working on a version of MobileOrg for the Android platform with the goal to reach feature parity with the iPhone version developed by Richard Moreland. I have completed an early alpha version that can fetch and display the contents of Org files stored on a webdav server. There are some good instructions for setting up a webdav server in the normal MobileOrg documentation: http://mobileorg.ncogni.to/doc/ For getting started from the emacs side of things, the Org-mode documentation itself contains all the information you need: http://orgmode.org/manual/MobileOrg.html As for the MobileOrg android application itself you can find the release notes and a download link here: http://wiki.github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/ There are some known issues with this early alpha version and can't synchronize back to the webdav server yet or handle setting the state of tasks but I felt this was a good start and would actually be useful for Org-mode users When you first start the application up you'll need to click Menu and then Settings and enter your webdav information. After saving you can click Menu again then Sync. Once that has finished it will populate the display and you can drill into your document structure. 73, Matthew W.

But too complex for now - and I actually do prefer local control. I know it is complex. I thought about the first steps I was thinking about a variable (list?) with predefined holidays or better omit-holidays such as org-omit-holidays we could add the omit dates in any place (add-to-list 'org-omit-holidays 25 Dec) (add-to-list 'org-omit-holidays 1 Jan) (add-to-list 'org-omit-holidays 1 May) etc. Hmm, this is a possibility - but I don't have the time now to implement it. And then the question remains: What exactly should be omitted on these days? Everything? - probably not. So I don't see how this leads to useful control, unless we have a really fine-grained control for each entry. Then we could change (adapt) the function calendar-check-holydays from holidays.el I did a search-replace to something like this: (defun org-check-calendar-omit-holidays (date) Check the list of org-omit-holidays for any that occur on DATE. The value returned is a list of strings of relevant org-omit-holiday descriptions. The org-omit-holidays are those in the list `org-omit-holidays'. (let ((displayed-month (extract-calendar-month date)) (displayed-year (extract-calendar-year date)) (org-omit-holiday-list)) (dolist (h (calendar-org-omit-holiday-list)) (if (calendar-date-equal date (car h)) (setq org-omit-holiday-list (append org-omit-holiday-list (cdr h) org-omit-holiday-list)) with these adaptation we could use a slighly changed version of the diary-schedule function I sent before. I did not go further nor tested it. Thinking again now: I think it is better to avoid holidays than week numbers. The problem is that we have to decide which holidays are really holidays and not rely on the holidays variables that come with Emacs. I do not agree. Lectures are not only skipped on holidays, but also on other days, so a more general approach is needed.

I now use a combination of systems: desktop PCs at work and home, netbook (Asus EEE) on the move with a Nokia internet tablet (N810) for those times when the netbook is too inconvenient (e.g. impromptu lunchtime meetings). Everything is synchronised using git. This all works well enough but I still would like a single pocketable computer that I could use in all scenarios. The Nokia's keyboard and screen are just a little too small, especially the keyboard. I am hopeful that a more usable system will come out this year as many mobile internet devices [MID] and ultra-mobile PCs (UMPC) were announced last year. The UMID co. look promising. Maybe the Pandora! Possibly one of the Android phones but probably not. I won't get an iPhone as I don't like the proprietary nature of the software [2]. I want Linux or equivalent with org-mode! HTH, eric Footnotes: [1] and this is *not* Carsten's fault ;-) [2] yes, the Psion ran proprietary software as well but, partly because of being orphaned by them, I no longer am willing to end up beholden to a single company's system! ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: Organizing a students live
Interesting. But too complex for now - and I actually do prefer local control. I know it is complex. I thought about the first steps I was thinking about a variable (list?) with predefined holidays or better omit-holidays such as org-omit-holidays we could add the omit dates in any place (add-to-list 'org-omit-holidays 25 Dec) (add-to-list 'org-omit-holidays 1 Jan) (add-to-list 'org-omit-holidays 1 May) etc. Then we could change (adapt) the function calendar-check-holydays from holidays.el I did a search-replace to something like this: (defun org-check-calendar-omit-holidays (date) Check the list of org-omit-holidays for any that occur on DATE. The value returned is a list of strings of relevant org-omit-holiday descriptions. The org-omit-holidays are those in the list `org-omit-holidays'. (let ((displayed-month (extract-calendar-month date)) (displayed-year (extract-calendar-year date)) (org-omit-holiday-list)) (dolist (h (calendar-org-omit-holiday-list)) (if (calendar-date-equal date (car h)) (setq org-omit-holiday-list (append org-omit-holiday-list (cdr h) org-omit-holiday-list)) with these adaptation we could use a slighly changed version of the diary-schedule function I sent before. I did not go further nor tested it. Thinking again now: I think it is better to avoid holidays than week numbers. The problem is that we have to decide which holidays are really holidays and not rely on the holidays variables that come with Emacs.

How can I get orgmode to pop up a message in the status line (or whatever it's called :)) when I'm trying to clock in Task A or Task B before January 1, 2010 or after March 31, 2010?

If org-mode export footnotes as beamer notes then some months from now someone would be asking here in the mailing-list how to enter a standard footnote when exporting to beamer. I agree - unfortunately there are genuinely sensible uses of footnotes in presentations. For example, citation of sources for quotations, data etc. is ideally accomplished by footnotes: they are not used during the presentation itself, but by distributing paper and/or electronic copies after the talk, footnotes provide essential reference data for perusal by the audience at a later date. I think that's an argument *for* Eric's idea (assuming that the handout includes notes - that's my practice, but maybe not everybody does that, although they *should* :-) ). In general, I think slides should be very simple: single-level lists, single idea per slide, no footnotes - but I know that generalities like that are just guidelines: meant to be broken, given a good enough cause. Imagine a slide showing the results of a benchmark, claiming X is much faster than Y! You might want to talk briefly about how the results were obtained, and about the impact of the results, but you would also need to be able to tell the audience they could independently verify the results by obtaining a copy of the slides and visiting the URL contained in the footnote - especially if the results are controversial! In this case, it would not matter that the URL was too small to be legible from the back of the room. How does inverting Eric's idea sound: invent a new kind of footnote, let's call it, say, a pnote, which is treated exactly like a footnote in all exports *except* beamer. In beamer, footnotes end up in the frame and pnotes end up in the notes. Not sure whether the implementation would be as simple as this makes it sound, but who knows?[1] Thanks, Nick [1] Well, OK: Carsten knows... ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Beamer support in Org-mode
Good idea Eric (footnotes - \notes) The only minor problem is number of lines per footnote/note. When I make notes on Bemaer in general my notes have more than one line. AFAIK footnotes in org are single lines or you have to separate them with \par which is not so good.

I've been playing with your sample file for a short while and it looks a good design which seems to support everything /I/ would want and does so in an easy way (especially the combination of the new C-c C-b special org-beamer command and columns view). I've run into a few niggles but I need to play some more (probably over the weekend) to see whether some of them are my fault or due to bugs in the code. However, some immediate niggles or suggestions are: - I need to be able to specify arguments for columns (i.e. the environment, not specific columns), specifically often [t] to make two columns align vertically - I don't understand what the difference between opt and envargs is. In fact, I see no reference to BEAMER_opt in the document you wrote yet your example has opt as one of the column view specifications. - it would be nice if when a column heading is also a block heading, that the tags generated (which, by the way, is a really nice feature) include both block and column tags to make it easy to spot the column aspect. You'll probably be hearing from me soon again! Oh, and thanks for the separate email showing me how to do my page 100 with the new setup. How to do it was actually quite clear from the example you gave in the other message. Very straightforward and does work nicely.

Re: [Orgmode] latex export and beamer columns
Eric listed all (or almost all) requirements for exporting Beamer. Some of the mI encountered a few days ago. I decided to export the lists into latex and then converting by hand the rest of the presentation. I am also very happy that Beamer is becoming an official directive of org-mode. Carsten converted us to org-mode and we converted him to Beamer! Daniel 2009/11/23 Eric S Fraga ucec...@ucl.ac.uk: At Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:55:53 +0100, Carsten Dominik wrote: Hi Eric, I am now getting interested in beamer support. I think this is interesting enough to implement special support for making beamer slides. Excellent! Can I ask you to think about it in general terms, what would be useful to have? I've been using org-mode for my presentations for a few months now and intensively the past week or so for a set of lectures (70+ slides) I have to give starting tomorrow (yikes! had better get them finished...!). It's working remarkably well. Beamer has many many features and I think it would violate the ethos of org-mode if we attempted to support the majority of them. Although I can suggest a number of features I think would be nice to support, I'm sure others will have a different subset they think is critical... however, I will give it a go: 1. being able to easily specify columns. I've proposed a solution works well for me but it is a bit clumsy and does impose a meaning on the 3rd and 4th level headings. This might conflict with other potential uses for these headings obviously (cf. next point). Also, please see my response to your comment on the impact of this on normal latex export below. The nice thing about using headings to indicate columns is the ease with which the columns can be re-ordered. 2. it would be nice to support the block environment in beamer. The obvious way would be to use 3rd level headings to indicate blocks. In my case, I use these less frequently than columns which is why I chose to use 3rd level headings to indicate columns. However, a solution that catered for both would be great. one solution I am playing with, given that I often have blocks within columns, is to use the 5th level headings for block headings: --8---cut here---start-8--- (\\section{%s} . \\section*{%s}) (\\begin{frame}\\frametitle{%s} \\end{frame} \\begin{frame}\\frametitle{%s} \\end{frame}) (\\begin{columns} \% %s \\end{columns} \\begin{columns} \% %s \\end{columns}) (\\begin{column}{%s\\textwidth} \\end{column} \\begin{column}{%s\\textwidth} \\end{column}) (\\begin{block}{%s} \\end{block} \\begin{block}{%s} \\end{block}) --8---cut here---end---8--- For example, the following would generate a block within a full width column on the slide: --8---cut here---start-8--- *** Another slide * columns *** 1.0 * My proposition - work better - work faster - have a life --8---cut here---end---8--- Although clumsy, it works! (set H:5 of course) 3. support for animation, typically through the special N tags on items and blocks (and more generally on most latex environments), would be nice. This can be used to selectively display different parts of a slide. One way to implement this, at least for itemized lists, would be through a new bullet point syntax, as in: 1- item to display from first virtual slide onwards 2-3 display on second and third views of the slide -4 display up to 4th view which would translate to \begin{itemize} \item1- item to display from first virtual slide onwards \item2-3 display on second and third views of the slide \item-4 display up to 4th view \end{itemize} I have no idea how hard it would be to incorporate this into the current list handling however... although I can imagine it could be quite difficult. 4. as already mentioned in another email, passing arguments to the frame environment would also be quite useful. This could be done with an attribute type of framework as done for figures and tables. I don't use many options to frame but I do find the need to use [shrink=20] or similar often (because my default font setting for beamer is bigger and so slides with more than a few bullet points or equations quickly overflow the slide). 5. finally, I use tikz a great deal in my presentations. However, this is probably best handled by the normal embedded latex features already present. Again, this list is based on the features I find I use in beamer and others will have other requirements unfortunately. One of the problems with your most recent solution for the columns problem is that the document no longer exports really well to a normal LaTeX document - or is this no issue because beamer has its

Re: [Orgmode] RSI
Ben, Please publish your .emacs configuration! Daniel 2009/9/7 B Smith-Mannschott bsmith.o...@gmail.com A few tips from an emacs hand who has had issues with repetitive strain in the past: The first thing I did after starting my first real job (years ago, when my RSI was pretty bad and my employer-supplied keyboard was in violation of the geneva conventions): 1. I got a kinesis contoured keyboard (like the Kinesis Advantage I'm typing on now.) It places C- and M- (Alt key) under your thumbs. (You could even assign them to foot pedals, though I never managed due to lack of rhythm -- guess I should have taken drumming classes at school.) The layout is completely programmable without additional software. In short: it's the ultimate emacs keybaord. 2. More recently, I had a flare up (Apple's wireless mouse is the work of the devil, for my hands at least.) It was then that I discovered Sticky Keys. Sticky keys takes some getting used to. It makes every modifier key work a little like caps lock. Sounds horrible, doesn't it? Well, it's not really. Basically, if you press control once, it locks control down for the next keystroke only, after which point the keyboard returns to normal. Press control twice, and it locks down until you release it with a third press. C-x C-f Used to be: press and hold control. Press and release x. press and release f. Release control. Now it's Press and release control twice. Press and release x. press and release f. Press and release control. This turns out to be easier on my hands because I don't find myself contorting my hands across the keyboard while I try to hold down more than one key at a time. I have sticky keys turned on on all my computers, except for the one at work where I have the kinesis keyboard. 3. I've rebound caps lock to control on all my keyboards (apart from the kinesis, where I have caps lock bound to the windows key.) 4. I have a happy hacking keyboard, which has control where caps lock is on an AT keyboard (and no caps key). The happy hacking keyboard has the drawback that it has no right control key. (Sticky keys helps here too.) // Ben ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

It pops up the remember and store-links options but nothing happens when I left-click on both fields. (left click on the statusbar entry) : does absolutely nothing.

In that case make (org-registry-initialize t) the very _last_ line in your .emacs . I'll put a page on Worg soon... My apologies for the inconvenience. By the way, these kind of emacs configuration issues are a reason why packaging is a bit problematic, at least at this stage of development. 2.

Your issue 1. prevents the url lookup to work, so I'd only expect store-link and remember to work anyway.

Re: [Orgmode] Fireforg, a Firefox extension for Org mode interaction
As I am not a developer I cannot be 100% certain but I feel that there are standardized paths for emacs and firefox that work across distributions. Maybe someone from the list could give us some hint.

Yes, the installation is messy, because the proper integration with existing code is also a matter of discussion, especially the rewrite of org-registry.

But I had to turn on transient mark mode for it to work. Intended behavior I guess? Yes. Everybody should turn it on. Why would you not? Why „should everyone use transient mark mode? Not everyone has to like that setting, and some may prefer to work without it. I myself find it confusing because when I set the mark, I want just to mark that point for later use (to jump quickly there, for instance). transient-mark-mode assumes that I always want to *start a region*, which is not true. I also like to select text without highlighting; it is less distracting and more readable. I wish you a (transient-mark-mode -1) and a happy new year :-) OK, point taken. I hardly ever use the mark as a jumping point. When I need to remember a position, most of the time I split the window, go to where I want momentarily in the new window, and then close that window again. I thought that transient-mark-mode was the only way to make use of commands that automatically use the region if one is active. But because of your mail, I went back to the Emacs manual and learned about the Momentary Mark, which is transient-transient-mark-mode, sort of. Pretty nice, this is a viable alternative to turning on transient-mark-mode, so viable that I am now considering turning off transient-mark-mode :-) OK, rephrase: To use region-sensitive commands, everybody should either turn on transient-mark-mode, or learn about the momentary mark.
