I don't think you are giving yourself enough credit. Let me try a cleaner version. If I put an autoload cookie in front of a defun, a stub for this function will be created in the autoloads file (for Org this is org- install.el). When this file gets loaded and the corresponding form evaluated, Emacs knows about this function and it will load the corresponding file to get the full function whenever the function is first called. We had a discussion here some point ago where someone complained that org-capture-templates was not available for customization before org- capture.el actually has been loaded. I thought that putting an autoload cookie in front of a defcustom form would have the desired effect. I had hoped that org-install.el then would make Emacs aware of org-capture-templates and load org-capture.el whenever org-capture- templates first was needed. However, it does not work like this. In org-install.el, the defcustom is turned into a defvar, which defines the variable and sets it to nil. That's unfortunate. It sounds rather like a bug in emacs. When later the customize forms are evaluated, they see the variable already defined and assume that the user has set this value on purpose. So customize does not think it is entitled to overrule the users action and so does *not* install its saved value. So this creates a dependence on the load sequence of org-install.el and custom.el. This is bad and unpredictable. Therefore I clearly prefer that org-capture-templates is only available when org-capture indeed has been loaded, and that an error is produced when I try to access the variable before it is defined. Hmm, could that not be solved by doing a (require 'custom) in org-install.el? Moreover, if you use `C-c r C' to customize the variable, I don't seem to have that binding. it will work because the function org-capture is correctly autoloaded. That is why I have decided to remove the autoload cookie. Better? Makes sense, mostly, thanks.

[Orgmode] Bug: org-install must precede customization [7.02trans]
Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See

Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.
There's an undocumented dependency between org-install and
customizations. In particular, if custom-set-variables is called to set
org-capture-templates, and then org-install is loaded,
org-capture-templates will be reset to nil. I tested this with

Hi Carsten,
Is it merely the autoload of org-capture-templates, or is this a
general rule for everything in org-install? I think I'm perfectly
happy to work with the dependency in place as long as it's documented.
For most people it wouldn't be an issue since custom-* puts its

I wrote this to John W:
Somehow I ended up with this in todo.txt:
*** DONE [#A] Check in elisp state

As a result, when I fired up emacs, it would always tell me there was a
dangling clock, but I couldn't clock out, even by `j M-x org-clock-out'.
Eventually I figured out to use J and it got cleaned up, but I'm still
a bit baffled about how I ended up in this condition.
and he replied:
This happens for me if I exit Emacs without clocking out first.
Seems like a bug.

I do think it is necessary to somehow change the date relative to what the previously set date is. The only way to make this half way transparently is to show that date in the prompt as the default date. Okay. There was lots of good advice to so what you want in different ways, including not rescheduling, or using bulk actions in the agenda. You know, I have `f' and `b' bound to org-agenda-date-later/-earlier, and that would be perfectly adequate for me, *if* I got appropriate visual feedback. The problem is the red S2 or S3 I'm looking at doesn't change on the fly when I reschedule.

[Orgmode] Feature request
Hi All, I have to reschedule quite a few items daily. Often they're yesterday's items that I need to reschedule for today. `C-c C-s . RET' is a bit much typing for that, so I re-bound `S' to org-agenda-schedule. But `S . RET' is still a bit much. I'd like it if the default when rescheduling was always for today, instead of the date the item is already scheduled for, so I could `S RET' in the usual case.

Because there's always something I didn't get done yesterday, and I often have pushed too many tasks forward onto a given day, and don't want to see more than about 15 TODOs in my agenda on any given day. That seems like a lot of overhead to me. What's wrong with leaving the item on the first scheduled date and just allow the agenda to show how many days it has already been scheduled for -- until you mark it DONE? Because then they show up in the consciousness like a failure instead of as just what I have to do today, and they tend to pile up and lead to a state of despair, where the agenda is too daunting to face. They need to be processed. I need to re-negotiate the contract I made with myself about when they were getting done. Alternatively if it's a repeating task, you can use a single day repeater and just mark the item DONE to move it to the next day. It's not. One thing I've been trying to do is minimize the amount of time I spend on overhead stuff for my tasks and trading that for time I actually do work on completing the tasks instead.

For example, if your org-refile- targets variable is like this: ((org-agenda-files :level . 1) (org-agenda-files :tag . refile) (nil :maxlevel . 2)) then you could get three instances: 1. it is a level 1 item in any of the agenda items 2. it has the tag refile and is in an agenda file 3. The item you are trying to refile is in the same file as the refile target - in that case, the entry is shown as a headline with level = 2 Looking at your setting for org-refile-targets, this is definitely somehing that could happen to you. I am not sure how cheap it would be to eliminate duplicate entries, this might be an N^2 operation. It is if you use a linear list ;-) A hash table should allow an O(N) solution.

I've been repeatedly finding org items in my agenda that don't behave
correctly. I discovered a partial explanation for the issue today
when I inspected this item, which I couldn't seem to reschedule:
*** TODO create network user for itunes and iphoto
SCHEDULED: 2010-10-03 Sun
Why didn't I think of this earlier!?
SCHEDULED: 2010-10-01 Fri
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: 909C7F52-FC6C-4EAC-8287-39A289A1ADAD
:END:
[2010-10-01 Fri 13:09]
This always showed up in the agenda as being scheduled for 10-01, but
rescheduling it would put the new scheduled date in just below the
TODO line, rather than changing the line from 10-01. I guess that
means I added the Why didn't I think of this earlier!? text right
below the TODO line, but I wasn't supposed to? So what *are* the
rules for where body text can appear in an item? And why doesn't org
make it harder for me to break those rules?
[As a general theme, I've had similar problems with habits, where I've
misspelled the format for the repeating date and Org didn't warn me.
Can this stuff be made more idiot-proof?]
Thanks!

[Orgmode] Backspacing into folded items
Hi All, I've gotten myself in trouble several times today by backspacing after an org-link that ends a headline. That's a typical pattern for editing an org-link, right? Well it turns out that if the item is folded, then the backspace writes over the end of the un-folded item but **appears to have no effect**, and you can easily hit backspace several times to test your sanity before you realize that something is wrong, badly corrupting your file. Seems to me that attempts to edit a folded item should either: a) restrict changes to the item's headline, or b) unfold the item and do nothing Is there a way to set that up?

[Orgmode] I must be missing something...
Hi, I've been using and studying org mode for a few months now, and though it seems to have great potential, some things still escape me. For example, do my DONE items simply accumulate forever in todo.org? I know there's an archiving feature... do I move those done items manually to an archive when I no longer need to see them? Also, how do I manage my projects? Org mode seems to want to put everything in one big file. I know I *can* separate trees by file, but it doesn't seem to be very convenient to do so. For example, if I'm visiting a project file, is there a way to get an agenda view on just /that/ file without having to modify org-agenda-files? I know I'm being a bit vague, but so far the basic operations of org-mode, which were very fast to use at first, haven't scaled up very easily to handle my whole life, and I'm not sure how to get there.

[Orgmode] Patch for growl notifications without uncommenting hacks
This patch to org-mac-message.el should make it show growl notifications
when searching for flagged messages and growl is running, and work
silently otherwise.
It's a little more complicated than it needs to be, since as noted in a
comment about the double-tell idiom, using the creator code to find
the application is probably not going to work unless the application's
name is exactly GrowlHelperApp anyway, but I am not motivated to
simpilify this more now that I have it working. Someone else is welcome
to improve on it.
Anyone is welcome to use this patch for any purpose. I hereby place it
in the public domain.

[Orgmode] Re: 1-way syncing with google calendar

If you check the archives i had a very basic google-org solution using w3. I stopped using it when i moved back to Emacs, guess its time to dig it out :) I'm currently building something similar using g-client which is much easier to integrate with the emacs calendar. It should also be able to do two-way sync without an external daemon. I just haven't found a good way to integrate it with the agenda. Anyone have experience with it? David, did you ever get anywhere with this? I'm very interested in such a solution and might pick up where you left off if it's not already finished.
