Re: [Orgmode] Task time limit
I finally got time to try this code :) Copied into my .emacs file, changed the time to 1 minute, clocked in a task, waited a minute and nothing happened :) What could I be doing wrong?

Sebastjan Trepca [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Anyway, this new version works! :) Be careful about clocking out from agenda views if you're also advising org-clock-out. It doesn't work, I can't see why for now. Thank you very much, this will be very useful. Btw, why not integrate it with org-mode? I don't think this has to be part of org-mode. I'm not using it myself and I would be surprised if many people are using it. This is a strange way of using appointments as reminders. And most of the times you will clock the task out before the appt will pop up -- which means you really relies on `appt-message-warning-time' to tell you that you're about to reach the appointment... Anyway, I opened a page named org-adhoc-code.org on Worg: http://www.cognition.ens.fr/~guerry/worg/org-adhoc-code.html We could put other tiny pieces of code here in the future. -- Bastien ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Task time limit
Hi, another idea for a feature (if it's not already possible) that would definitely come handy. I have few tasks that should only take a limited amount of my time each day. For example, check the feed reader would be set to 20 minutes. I would clock-in the task, go and check the reader and after 20 mins, alarm would go off, reminding me that I should start doing something else. Is this possible with current version?
