Re: [Orgmode] agenda prefix - fixed/max width
Hi Eraldo Why do you define categories longer than 7 characters if you don'e want to display them? #+CATEGORY: evening or a similar property at the right place ill get you there. - Carsten P.S. After the next pull, you can also do this: (setq org-agenda-prefix-format %-8.8:c ) This should haveworked before, but did not, due to an error I cannot figure out. The latest git contains a worg-around.

Awesome! Thank you Carsten! | Why do you define categories longer than 7 characters if you don'e want to display them? because sometimes the filename is used and I don't want to truncate it.
