All,

Following up to myself.

With a working example of X-WR-TIMEZONE from Richard Riley and a night's
sleep under my belt, I revisted setting 'org-icalendar-timezone' to my
time zone (America/Indiana/Indianapolis) and this time it worked. Not
quite sure what happened yesterday but I suspect that my calendar was
being cached at Google and therefore did not reflect my furious cycle of
change/push/refresh as I tried different settings.

This thread:

http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=4655879e5ebc62f7hl=en

laments the lack of timely refreshing of subscribed calendars and seems
to suggest that the refresh cycle may be as long as 24 hours. I can't
confirm that yet but I'm still waiting. It seems to be at least several
hours long.

Neal

[Orgmode] ical export - google calendar woes

2010-09-10 Thread Neal Thomison
All,

I'm experiencing one of those the last 10% of the problem takes 90% of
the time moments.

I'm doing a combined ical export over all of my .org files, which works
fine. I then copy the resulting .ics file off to my web server to which
I've pointed a Google calendar (an add by url calendar) which also
works, after a fashion. The irritation is that no matter what I try and
do, Google insists on seeing the calendar timezone as GMT, hence, all of
my appointments are appearing 4 hours early (my TZ is EST5EDT but EST or
America/Indianapolis or America/Indiana/Indianapolis all don't work
either). I've set 'org-icalendar-timezone' and I see X-WR-TIMEZONE set
correctly in the resulting .ics file.

As an experiment, I hand edited the exported .ics file and added a
TZNAME: EST5EDT before copying it up to my web server and it works
fine; my appointments are show at the correct times.

I've googled enough to know that there are fair number of people with a
lot of angst over the timezone support in gcal but this feels like a
much more pedestrian issue than what the bulk of those post are focusing
on.

Am I missing a config parameter somewhere? Do I need a special
incantation or naming convention when I do an add by url?

My setup is: emacs 24.0.50.2 and org-mode 7.01trans.

Thanks,
Neal

[Orgmode] Org-mode version 6.30trans; 'q' key doesn't quit agenda

2009-09-03 Thread Neal Thomison

The 'q' key fails to quit an agenda buffer.

The error message is:

org-agenda-quit: Wrong number of arguments: window-dedicated-p, 0

I looked at the code and the problem seems to be here:

(defun org-agenda-quit ()
  Exit agenda by removing the window or the buffer.
  (interactive)
  (if org-agenda-columns-active
  (org-columns-quit)
(if (window-dedicated-p) (delete-other-windows))
...))

'window-dedicated-p' requires a window arg

Thanks,
Neal
