Nice idea, I gave it a shot. I advised `org-clock-in' so that each time I am clocking in a new task, a new appointment is triggered. `my-org-appt-add' can also be called interactively. ;; Make sure you have a sensible value for `appt-message-warning-time' (defun my-org-appt-add (&optional n) "Add an appointment for the Org entry at point in N minutes." (interactive) (save-excursion (org-back-to-heading t) (looking-at org-complex-heading-regexp) (let* ((msg (concat (match-string-no-properties 4) " *GAME OVER*")) (ct-time (decode-time)) (appt-min (+ (cadr ct-time) (or n 20))) (appt-time ; define the time for the appointment (progn (setf (cadr ct-time) appt-min) ct-time))) (appt-add (format-time-string "%H:%M" (apply 'encode-time appt-time)) msg) (if (interactive-p) (message "New appointment for %s" msg))))) (defadvice org-clock-in (after org-appt-add-after-clock-in activate) "Add an appointment after clocking in a task." (my-org-appt-add)) Maybe another idea is to bind (progn (org-clock-in) (my-org-appt-add)) to a key in org-agenda-mode-map, since advising `org-clock-in' is a bit too much IMO. Or we could use some kind of filtering to decide whether clockin in an entry should trigger a new appointment. Anyway, that's just a quickstart, let me know if this is useful. -- Bastien _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
