Can't find out about this anywhere. My apologies if I missed something
simple or something already posted.
I want a calculation to appear in column 9 if and only if column 2 is
non-blank. If there is an explicit 0 in column 2, I want the calculation to
appear in column 9. But if column 2 is blank
I'm making it work, and using "L" rather than "S" turns out to be better, as in
this revision of my example above:
$9 = '(if (eq "$2" "") "" (* @2$8 $1));L
But when I want different actions when there is an explicit number (including
0)
vs. a blank cell, and if my action is at all complex, I e
ans, including the very important matter of long-term storage
in a non-proprietary format.

mail-user-agent was set to message-user-agent. Changing it to
gnus-user-agent solved the problem within org-mode, so for the purposes

Pressing "enter" in a headline to make a new headline is consistent with
the way many other text-mode outliners have worked in the past. Ctrl-O

Just to update, reversion to an earlier org-mode makes these

And the problem turns out to be that "tree" cannot be in quotes, instead
it has to be
:sitemap-style tree
Previously, this error would not be flagged and the default, which is
tree, would be used,
an org-mode adjunct for this),
some coding could turn this into a Task Juggler input file.
There is already a project management adjunct for Emacs, but it doesn't
