Hi Francesco, Sorry for the delay in responding... Francesco Pizzolante f...@missioncriticalit.com writes: It seems to work at first sight, but when I try C-c C-v e on this line #+call: tasklist(person=me) :exports results then the end of my buffer gets modified this way: #+call: tasklist(person=me) :exports results #+results: tasklist(person=me) #+begin_example - Lui écrire un mail - Tester le bout de code de mon élève ** For Jenny #+end_example #+call: tasklist(person=me) :exports results #+results: tasklist(person=Jenny) #+begin_example - Voir si le pantalon lui va bien - Appeler Georges #+end_example Which is a complete mess... Could you please explain what is a complete mess above? The lack of an enclosing comment block? You can tweak the way in which the results are placed in the buffer by modifying the :results header. For instance, :results raw will simply spit out an unadorned org-mode list. (info (org) results) Best, Matt ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

If you think about a simple way of doing this, please let me know. I had the same problem, and tweaking your code (I think org-mode doesn't like the modification of org-agenda-files) this is what I've ended up with: (defun tasks-with-tag (person optional scope) (let ((tasklist ())) (org-map-entries (lambda () (let ((priority (nth 3 (org-heading-components (add-to-list 'tasklist (list (if priority (char-to-string priority) C) (concat [[ (nth 4 (org-heading-components)) ]])) t))) (concat person /!TASK) scope) (sort tasklist (lambda (f s) (string-lessp (car f) (car s)) The output is sorted and makes a nice table. Scope is passed directly to org-map-entries, so if you leave it out the scope will be the current buffer.

Hi Matt, Another option is to use a babel block and org-map-entries to spit out a simple list of tasks for each person: --8---cut here---start-8--- #+source: tasklist #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var person=me (let (tasklist) (org-map-entries (lambda () (add-to-list 'tasklist (concat - (nth 4 (org-heading-components) (concat person /!TODO) 'agenda) (mapconcat 'identity tasklist \n)) #+end_src #+call: tasklist(person=Jenny) --8---cut here---end---8--- Add this to an org file, replace Jenny with the appropriate name, and type C-c C-c to spit out a list (of all TODO items tagged with the relevant name) that looks like this: --8---cut here---start-8--- #+results: tasklist(person=Jenny) #+begin_example - Call George - Call Archie - Estimate cost of widgets --8---cut here---end---8--- Thanks a lot for your great help. I've played a little with the code you've sent and here's what I end up with: --8---cut here---start-8--- #+source: tasklist #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var person=FPZ :results raw (setq org-agenda-files (list (buffer-file-name))) (let (tasklist) (add-to-list 'tasklist |c||| t) (org-map-entries (lambda () (let ((priority (nth 3 (org-heading-components (add-to-list 'tasklist (concat | * (nth 2 (org-heading-components)) * |/[# (char-to-string (if priority priority ?B)) ]/ | [[ (nth 4 (org-heading-components)) ]]|) t))) (concat person /!TODO|STARTED|WAIT) 'agenda) (mapconcat 'identity tasklist \n)) #+end_src --8---cut here---end---8--- This enables to get a table with a task per row. For each task, I get the TODO keywork, the priority and a link to the corresponding section in my Org buffer. Here'a an example from one of my document: --8---cut here---start-8--- #+results: tasklist | c || | | *WAIT*| /[#C]/ | [[See if we have to filter the processes against something else]]| | *WAIT*| /[#C]/ | [[See if we have to filter the products against something else than the branch]] | | *STARTED* | /[#A]/ | [[Display static party questions block]] | | *WAIT*| /[#C]/ | [[Analyse the risk management screen]] | --8---cut here---end---8--- This is really great as each person can now have a quick overview of their tasks and they just jave to click to get the details of the tasks! The next step for me, would be to be able to sort this table against priorities for instance. If you think about a simple way of doing this, please let me know.

Hi Matt, Thanks a lor for you answer. I preferred your second suggestion as I can add it directly to my Org buffer: --8---cut here---start-8--- #+source: tasklist #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var person=me (let (tasklist) (org-map-entries (lambda () (add-to-list 'tasklist (concat - (nth 4 (org-heading-components) (concat person /!TODO) 'agenda) (mapconcat 'identity tasklist \n)) #+end_src #+call: tasklist(person=Jenny) --8---cut here---end---8--- Add this to an org file, replace Jenny with the appropriate name, and type C-c C-c to spit out a list (of all TODO items tagged with the relevant name) that looks like this: --8---cut here---start-8--- #+results: tasklist(person=Jenny) #+begin_example - Call George - Call Archie - Estimate cost of widgets --8---cut here---end---8--- Currently you code returns todo items with the todo keyword TODO only. What do I have to change in order to get all todo items with selected todo keyword? As an example, I'd like to keep in the lists the todo items with TODO and STARTED but not the ones marked as DONE, WAIT or NEW. Thanks again for your help.

I'm currently using tags to assing people to tasks (even if I'm not completely convinced that this is the right way to go). What I would like is to generate a dynamic block for each person with all tasks assigned to that person. This means, list all headings with a given tag. Could someone tell me how to do that? I'm not sure if this is what you are after, but one way is to use custom agenda commands and then to save the agenda as a txt file: The following pages have good information on creating block agenda with custom commands: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-custom-agenda-commands.php http://orgmode.org/manual/Block-agenda.html#Block-agenda E.g., --8---cut here---start-8--- (add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands '(D Delegated tasks ((tags-todo Jenny) (tags-todo Archie) (tags-todo George --8---cut here---end---8--- Once you create a custom agenda command, you can simply save it as txt by typing C-x C-w and the filename + relevant extension. Another option is to use a babel block and org-map-entries to spit out a simple list of tasks for each person: --8---cut here---start-8--- #+source: tasklist #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var person=me (let (tasklist) (org-map-entries (lambda () (add-to-list 'tasklist (concat - (nth 4 (org-heading-components) (concat person /!TODO) 'agenda) (mapconcat 'identity tasklist \n)) #+end_src #+call: tasklist(person=Jenny) --8---cut here---end---8--- Add this to an org file, replace Jenny with the appropriate name, and type C-c C-c to spit out a list (of all TODO items tagged with the relevant name) that looks like this: --8---cut here---start-8--- #+results: tasklist(person=Jenny) #+begin_example - Call George - Call Archie - Estimate cost of widgets --8---cut here---end---8--- You could do something similar with dynamic block function.

I'm currently using tags to assing people to tasks (even if I'm not completely convinced that this is the right way to go). Babel is of course one way to do this. Another way would be to export your org file to taskjuggler[1] and define a resourcereport[2] which shows you all the resources and their tasks. The tutorial has an example screen shot where you see a resource report[3].
