RE: [Orgmode] Customizing agenda printout
Hi Norman Now to my question. I'm using emacs22.1 and I would like to change the way agenda is displayed. Instead of I would rather make it so that it is more readable when printed in BW maybe Week-agenda: | Monday21 January 2008 | -- Diary: Martin Luther King Day | Tuesday 22 January 2008 | -- Could someone point me in the right direction to do so? What file do I need to be editing? Section of file? Have a look at org-agenda-list in org.el (type C-h f org-agenda-list).

RE: [Orgmode] displaying outline path in agenda
Hi One problem with this approach is that the agenda entry is not especially informative-- simply Week 1. I'd like to edit the function that generates the agenda entries from active timestamps to include the option of using new outline path notation. In this case, the agenda would read Standing Appointments/Swing III/Week 1. I've already identified org-get-outline-path and org-format-agenda-line as functions that might be relevant, but it seems to me that org-format-agenda-line comes in to late in the process. What I really want is to replace use the outline path as the txt argument to org-format-agenda-line. Can anyone point me towards the part of the org.el source I should be looking at for adding this functionality? I think you have have to fiddle with all of the functions that are called from org-agenda-get-day-entries, i.e. org-agenda-get-todos, org-agenda-get-timestamps, org-agenda-get-blocks, org-agenda-get-sexps, org-agenda-get-scheduled, org-agenda-get-deadlines. Try if you can get it to work with one (I guess org-agenda-get-scheduled for your case) and see if changes are needed in the others.

[Orgmode] [Patch] Sort agenda items by todo-state
* Introduction I live in my org agenda view and I schedule all my tasks to the day that I want to do them. I also would like to see my achievements so I keep the TODOs that are done in the agenda view. However I would like them to get out of the way so that I can better see the tasks that are still open. That is why for a long time I've been wanting to sort the agenda items by todo state. * Patch I finally looked at the code and realized that this was not very hard to do. The following patch (against 5.13i) implements a new org-agenda-sorting-strategy that allows you to sort agenda items by todo-state. * Notes The patch is basically a works-for-me implementation. It only sorts todo and scheduled items. It should probably do the same for deadlines. Maybe even for timestamps? The doc strings need to be updated. Carsten at one time talked about implementing this feature by using priorities, i.e. factoring the todo-state into the priority (which uses the actual priority plus some calculation based on how many days the task is overdue). This patch takes a different route. The sorting is done by comparing the todo-state of the items. It first orders them by done state, i.e. all done items come after (or before) the items that are not done. After that it compares the todo-states with a string compare. This should probably use some kind of ordering information from the relevant org-todo-keywords sequence. * Conclusion So the basic question is: Should I clean up this patch to get it included? Is the proposed route (of not taking the priorities) ok? And finally: How do I sort taking the sequence order into consideration?

This would certainly help a lot to get your problem fixed. I do appreciate that providing a patch is a better solution than providing information leading to the patch. However, I provided the relevant section and valid option values in the hope that someone who knows better could derive a patch faster and more easily than I can. As it was, I took time to determine experimentally, what the valid values were since, to me, reading Lisp is about as much fun as reading a good legal contract. I appreciate the time you took to analyse the problem and propose a solution. I was just hinting that producing a patch to the documentation is very easy (in fact that is how I got into hacking on org-mode :-)) and will IMHO give the developers more time to focus on the code. The documentation in org.texi is basically text with some markup and can be adapted easily, so no lisp know-how required. If you need any help on producing a patch let me know.

RE: [Orgmode] File specific exporting of tags
Hi Dan The documentation for org-export-with-tags mentions the file specific tags option. But, it should probably be added to 12.6.5 in the manual (I'm looking at manual version 5.13e).

RE: [Orgmode] org-mode and Google Calendar
Is there any way to sync org-mode with google calendar ? And if not, is this planed/possible ? Funny you should mention this. Just this morning I fetched the ics file from my google calendar and imported the ics file into my diary (icalendar-import-file /here/is/calendar.ics /there/goes/ical-diary). If you then set org-agenda-include-diary properly, you'll get the events from the google calendar in your agenda. Pretty straight forward actually. You could probably automate this with cron. To avoid reimporting the same events again you could have a separate diary file for the google calendar and drop it before each import. #include it in the main diary file. org-mode probably handles this (not tested) as it just uses the fancy diary display (which is needed for #include). Would be nice to write a detailed tutorial about this. Any volunteers? HTH Christian ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

McBrayer Cc: emacs-orgmode@gnu.org Subject: Re: [Orgmode] Interpretation of priorities in org-mode If something has to be done today, then that's a deadline, not a priority. As I said, my reason for scheduling certain tasks as for today, is that I like to have a plan of what to do each day. Without an explicit plan, I catch myself scanning my todo list many times during a day, effectively wasting time on recreating the same plan many times. But I've tried it only for a week now, so I can't say whether it works. What I do is that I schedule the tasks that I want to do on a particular day. I also customize the agenda to show unscheduled TODOs, so my (weekly) agenda shows me the tasks that haven't been scheduled (probably not so important, a MAYBE in GTD speak) and the tasks that are scheduled for a particular day. I look at the current day and see the tasks that are up for this day. What I'd like to do is to be able to schedule a task for a given week. Say I know that I want to hand in a paper which is due in two weeks but this week is very busy and I have no time to work on it. So I want to schedule it for next week. At the moment I just schedule it for next monday but I would like to be flexible next week and do the paper maybe on another day next week depending on other load. Basically I would like the agenda to show me something along the following: ALL CURRENTLY OPEN TODO ITEMS: TODO: TODO A task which has not been scheduled (probably a MAYBE in GTD speak) TODO ITEMS FOR THIS WEEK: TODO: TODO Do the laundry (I move this task to a particular day if I see that a day is not very busy during the week) TODO: TODO write paper (see above) Week-agenda: Monday30 July 2007 TODO: Scheduled: TODO put the db where failover happens Tuesday 31 July 2007 Wednesday 1 August 2007 Thursday 2 August 2007 Friday 3 August 2007 Saturday 4 August 2007 Sunday 5 August 2007 In this case I see that I will not be very busy this week and I can easily write the paper and do the laundry. However if this would be a busy week and there are tasks planned for every day I could decide to do the laundry next week and just move it forward and not have to think about it until next week. I've looked at the code to implement this. I imagine using the iso 8601 week date format for week of the year (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601), i.e. -Www.
