Re: Help speeding up Org iCal export
I'm running into this issue now. One thing I noticed is that if you have broken links (and org-export-with-broken-links is t), org-id-update-id-locations will be run for every broken link it finds. This turns out to be quite slow and unnecessary since no files will have changed in between org-id-update-id-locations runs during export. One hacky workaround is to temporarily disable org-id-update-id-locations, like so: (cl-letf (((symbol-function 'org-id-update-id-locations) (lambda ( files silent) (message "Not updating locations" (let ((org-export-with-broken-links t) (gc-cons-threshold 8000)) (org-icalendar-combine-agenda-files))) The right solution would probably be to not have broken links in the first place. :P Or maybe org-id-update-id-locations could be debounced or cached in some way.

Re: Inserting org-mode heading links the org-refile way
Hi, Here's an example of how to create an ivy prompt that inserts links. It isn't exactly what you're looking for, as it doesn't hijack `org-insert-link` functionality, nor does it specifically use `org-refile-target-verify-function` to do filtering. Instead, this uses org-ql to select TODO headers with a level of at least 3. org-ql will cache queries in a manner similar to the initial collecting of org-refile targets. You can add other filter criteria using org-ql's sexp query syntax. You can also replace the `(org-agenda-files)` to be some expression that returns the specific list of files you're interested in. (defun jmm/org-ql-ivy-prompt-for-link () "Select a todo header with ivy and insert its link" (interactive) (ivy-read "Link:" (->> (org-ql-select (org-agenda-files) '(and (todo) (level >= 3) (not (tags "ARCHIVE"))) :action 'element-with-markers) (-map #'org-ql-view--format-element)) :action (lambda (x) (let ((org-id-link-to-org-use-id t)) ; Add an ID if it doesn't exist (insert (org-with-point-at (get-text-property 0 'org-hd-marker x) (org-store-link nil))) Note: This also uses dash.el functions/macros. You can replace that as needed.

Shift select
One more question, I turned on shift-select with the following line in my .emacs. It works, but of course, on headings, it doesn't work because it changes the TODO status of the heading (shift left-right) or the priority of the heading (shift up-down). How would I make shift select still work on headings, and assign those other functions to other bindings? (setq org-support-shift-select t) Thanks! Josh
Binding literal tab to C-Tab
Hi all, I have a need to insert literal tab characters into my org-mode files frequently. I would like to bind a key to insert literal tabs (ASCII 9). I thought Control-TAB would be a good option. So I inserted the following lines into my .emacs file. It works when in normal emacs, but not in org-mode. Is there a way to get this to work in org-mode? If this is a bad key combination for org-mode, I'm ok switching to another key combo. (defun my-insert-tab-char () "Insert a tab char. (ASCII 9, \t)" (interactive) (insert "\t")) (global-set-key (kbd "C-") 'my-insert-tab-char) Thanks! Josh
Re: [O] Macro that calls external program
Thanks Ken.
Yes, at first I was trying to accomplish my task with Macros, but after
finding out that I could run the whole Org file through a pre-filter, I
realized that this would be a much cleaner and easier way rather than
having multiple types of macros or code blocks. So now I'm trying to
figure out how to attach an external program to
`org-export-before-parsing-hook' or `org-export-before-processing-hook' to
pipe the entire Org file through...

Thanks! This is very helpful. I have a related question. How can I run an external program right before Export that takes as input the current buffer and prints out to stdout an updated version of the org file that then is exported? Basically I want to pipe the org file through a filter that is an external program before it is exported. Thanks in advance!

[O] Bug: Marking repeated tasks with two tags as DONE causes problems
Hello, I'm starting to encounter a strange, silent problem when switching the state of a task with multiple tags. With the following minimal example: #+STARTUP: logdone #+STARTUP: logdrawer * TODO Hello :hi:there: SCHEDULED: <2017-08-11 Fri .+1d> Switching The "hello" task from "TODO" to "DONE" should keep the task as "TODO", but schedule it in the future. Instead, the file ends up looking like: #STARTUP: logdone :hi:there: #+STARTUP: logdrawer * DONE Hello :hi:there: CLOSED: [2017-08-11 Fri 14:57] SCHEDULED: <2017-08-12 Sat .+1d> Where the task is marked as "DONE", and weirdly tags are added in some of the startup config at the beginning of the file. I'm using Emacs : GNU Emacs 26.0.50.2 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.5) of 2017-01-18 Package: Org mode version 9.0.9 (release_9.0.9-746-g8fa6c0 @ /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/org/) There still seems to be a problem with org-toggle-tag, which is causing this. I think it has to do with the "replace-match" again. "org-split-string" doesn't save match data, so "replace-match" replaces the wrong thing. Best, Josh

Hello,
~org-toggle-tag~ now seems to delete currently set tags for a heading. It
seems that calling ~(match-string 1)~ after ~(replace-match "")~ makes
the former return an empty string, so the ~current~ tags get set as an
empty string. It also still seems to set a blank tag ("::") if there was
a tag set previously.

This is happening with me too. But I suspect it has more to do with
org-todo-state-tags-triggers being set. I don't get the double colons if
I don't set org-todo-state-tags-triggers.

[O] Bug: org-clock-sum-current-item/org-clock-get-sum-start not respecting LAST_REPEAT [9.0.9 (release_9.0.9-697-gb0776e @ /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/org/)]
Hey there, Recently I've found that clocking in to a repeating task is giving me an incorrect "task time since last repeat". Normally, when I clock into a task, mark it as done, and clock in again, I expect the starting clock time to be 0. In this example: * TODO Stuff SCHEDULED: <2017-08-04 Fri +1d> :PROPERTIES: :LAST_REPEAT: [2017-07-12 Wed 20:02] :END: :LOGBOOK: - State "DONE" from "TODO" [2017-07-12 Wed 20:02] CLOCK: [2017-07-12 Wed 19:54]--[2017-07-12 Wed 20:02] => 0:08 - State "DONE" from "TODO" [2017-07-08 Sat 19:14] CLOCK: [2017-07-08 Sat 18:49]--[2017-07-08 Sat 19:14] => 0:25 - State "DONE" from "TODO" [2017-06-05 Mon 15:14] CLOCK: [2017-06-05 Mon 14:48]--[2017-06-05 Mon 15:14] => 0:26 :END: clocking in reports that I've spent 8 minutes on the item already, even though that happened before the LAST_REPEAT. When looking at (org-clock-sum-current-item (org-clock-get-sum-start)) I'm getting "8" when I should get "0". This change seems to have started happening after commit 112c5ba47, which changed org-clock-sum to do something different with daylights savings.

Re: [O] Problem with org-agenda-clockreport-mode and tag-filtered view in agenda
Resurrecting an old thread that reported a problem that I am also having: the prefix argument to org-agenda-clockreport-mode seems to be ignored instead of applying the current filter. I investigated, and commit 2e9c2d7128e0491491d00b585be83ac688587d00 http://orgmode.org/w/?p=org-mode.git;a=commit;h=2e9c2d7128e0491491d00b585be83ac688587d00 appears to be first one where C-u R does not apply the current filter. For me, commit 30220ffcdcef45c0237f80a2347d4da19877f64a works as expected. I also just checked master and maint, and they both still ignore the prefix argument. The commit message contains: (org-agenda-clockreport-mode, org-agenda-set-mode-name): Don't consider tag filters. So it seems that this behavior is intended, although the documentation at http://orgmode.org/manual/Agenda-commands.html still refers to the old behavior. Is this assumption correct, and if so is there a different way to filter the clockreport by tag? Cheers, Josh
[O] Running Node.js and exporting css.
Couple of weeks ago, I accidentally spammed the message board with several
attempts to send up a couple of patches for some problems I was seeing.
So, firstly, apologies for the spam.
The two problems I was seeing were related to executing js using node.js,
and exporting css with vendor properties.
The node.js problem is that it will start putting in newlines if a
structure is past some size. I think this may be fixable by changing
some settings in node.js, but it was also easy enough to change the regex
to look past newlines in org. An example of the problem can be seen by
running the following
#+BEGIN_SRC js
return [[1, 2],[1, 2],[1, 2],[1, 2],[1, 2],[1, 2],[1,2]]
#+END_SRC
If you remove just one of the inner arrays, it will work as desired.
The other problem is just as short. Simply export the following when you
have org-src-fontify-natively set.
#+BEGIN_SRC css
foo {
-webkit-appearance: none;
}
#+END_SRC
I cobbled a small change that seemed to fix that.
At any rate, again apologies for the previous spam. I didn't want to just
respam immediately with an apology.
Thanks!

[O] [PATCH] Couple of small fixes in exporting node.js and css content.
I've got a toy paper I'm writing where I ran into a couple of issues exporting to html. The first issue is related to exporting the source of a css block that contains proprietary properties. In short, it looks like a list is generated for the font face, where a single value was expected. The second issue may be my fault, so if there is a setting I should change on my end, apologies and I'll set said setting. Basically, there is a cutoff value whereby node.js will insert newlines into the results. This was incredibly frustrating as what was turning into a decent looking table would suddenly become garbage. In both cases, I did not add a test file. If it is enough to just copy an existing test file and trim it down to just these two items, I can certainly do that. Finally, apologies if I am doing this incorrectly.

[O] Bug [w/patch]: TODO blocking doesn't work across files with different TODO keyword sets
Hi list, Some of my agenda files use custom TODO keywords (set through a #+SETUPFILE), and some use the standard TODO | DONE keywords. I recently discovered that TODO blocking is broken in the files which use custom keywords. It turns out the org-not-done-heading-regexps variable was global instead of buffer-local like the other *-regexp variables; this appears to be due to a typo in org.el. I think the blocker hook (org-block-todo-from-children-or-siblings-or-parent) was picking up the global value (set by one of the factory-default buffers, which got opened last) and applying it to buffers with my custom TODO keywords, so it was not correctly identifying some headlines as TODO headlines. The patch below corrects the typo and fixes TODO blocking in my custom-keyword files. I hope you find it useful. (BTW, I quickly ran through the other make-variable-buffer-local invocations in org.el, and didn't see any more typos of this nature.)

But if you have: * TODO top ** TODO a ** TODO b ** TODO c All children of top--that is, a, b and c--will appear. However, in neither case will top appear, because it has children that are not yet completed. Have you tried just a tags view with a match of TODO=\PROJ\? IIRC this will do what you want. I gave this a test, and apparently it does not. What's shown is still dependent on the value of org-enforce-todo-dependencies. I see, it does not, my bad. I tried experimenting a bit on my own, and didn't find an easy way using just agendas. You might consider experimenting with Stuck Projects though. If you consider all projects to be stuck, you could probably build an agenda view that shows you all projects regardless of what's in them. (I don't use stuck projects myself, so YMMV.) -- Josh

Update: I found the culprit in org-enforce-todo-dependencies, set to nil and all projects labeled as PROJ are displayed again. Have to think about why this affects the agenda views in that way... Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but: I think org considers child tasks to be dependencies of the parent task -- so if a parent task (such as your PROJ) has children, it won't be displayed in a tags-todo agenda view, because that takes dependencies into account. Have you tried just a tags view with a match of TODO=\PROJ\? IIRC this will do what you want. So it would be: (P Projects tags TODO=\PROJ\ ((org-agenda-overriding-header List of Projects))) -- Josh
[O] Version 7.5: C-c C-t anything fails with args out of range

[Orgmode] dates in a spreadsheet
I'm using the spreadsheet capabilities of org for the first time (very cool!) to plan an upcoming trip. I'd like to create a column formula to automatically calculate the dates/day of week but I'm a bit stumped. I don't see a way for the formula to know which row it is currently processing. I'm also coming up short trying to find any elisp to go from day of year - formatted date string. Any suggestions? ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] dates in a spreadsheet
Sure thing. Basically I'd like the date column to be automatically calculated so that I can move things around, add extra days here and there, and not have to edit that column by hand. | date | location | activities| notes | |---+--+---+| | 03-16 Tue | moon | collect rocks || | 03-17 Wed | mars | terraform | this might take a few days | | 03-18 Thu | earth| breath air|| If I wanted to add an extra day on mars I could just enter a new row, recalculate the forumula, and the dates would be automagically updated. It's not such a big deal in a small example like this but I'm planning out a 3 week vacation with a fair number of destinations. I'd like the day of week to display because some sites are closed on certain days. It goes without saying that I've spent more time trying to figure this out than it would actually save so it's more about education at this point :) On Wed, Mar 17, 2010 at 8:26 AM, Dan Davison davi...@stats.ox.ac.uk wrote: Josh Mattoon joshmatt...@gmail.com writes: I'm using the spreadsheet capabilities of org for the first time (very cool!) to plan an upcoming trip.

Re: [Orgmode] dates in a spreadsheet
Hey Nick, the first one came through just fine. This is pretty cool but still not quite what I'm looking for. It totally helped me get what I wanted though! I wanted to have a separate row for each day so I could fill in activities. Modifying your example I get: | date | place | activity | notes | |--+-+---+--| | 2010-03-19 Fri | | | dummy | | 2010-03-20 Sat | | | | | 2010-03-21 Sun | moon| collect rocks | | | 2010-03-22 Mon | jupiter | thrash around the red dot | | | 2010-03-23 Tue | mars| see the little green men | | | 2010-03-24 Wed | earth | | home, sweet home | #+TBLFM: @2$1 = 03-19-2010::$1 = @-1$1 + 1 Exactly what I wanted! I can insert days, move them around, and just hit C-u C-c C-c to have it update. I'd like to understand how it works though, if you don't mind. What does the ::$1 synax mean? And how did it know that we were dealing with a date?
