Bastien [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I must acknowledge that the boxquote stuff wrapping your e-mails always looked a bit weird to me.. I usually see this as a way to quote emails or code examples, not to encapsulate your own prose. True, I was kind of misusing the boxquotes. I just liked the looks of them. For e-mailing to friends that's oke, but on a mail-list like this one it looks a bit confusing... Sorry for that. I don't see any way to make boxquotes works with the TOC anyway, since there would be too many complexity when displaying several levels at the same time. Agreed But I like the idea of having some kind of margin, just as linum.el does for line numbers: http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e0225855/linum/linum.html Yes, I had a look at linum, and it looks like a good mechanism that can be of use in the TOC. If you could make such a margin, that would be great for the TOC... What kind of information you would like to be displayed in this margin? (Remember there is org-toc-info already, so the margin and the echo-area should work in a complementary way.) Maybe the margin could display how many sub-headings are below the heading that shows in the TOC? Or how many lines of text there are folded inside it? Or the number of TODO's that are below it? Or maybe it's better to keep things simple. And put no extra information in the margin? Just put two or three symbols (ones that do not conflict with org-mode) there, to make the TOC display distinguishable from the base-buffer. You could use a symbol from the utf-8 coding table. I've put some examples here: http://swangdoodles.googlepages.com/Unicodes-for-org-toc.html I don't know h-line... did you mean hl-line? I think the purpose of global-hl-line-mode is only to highlight the current line, not several lines. Yes, I meant hl-line... I'm using it in my agenda-views. But your right, it only works on one line. I tried to insert this at the end of a file: # Local Variables: # eval: (org-show-table-of-contents) # End: but it requires M-x normal-mode, which I don't understand. Even by setting both `enable-local-variables' and `enable-local-eval' to t (which is not recommended!) ... any hint on this is welcome! When I set in my .emacs: '(enable-local-eval t) And at the bottom of the org-file: # Local Variables: # eval: (org-toc-show) # End: What happens is that the TOC-buffer does open. But it is opened as a full view buffer, not as a split screen together with the org-file What might also be handy is to limit the size of the TOC-buffer. Right now, what happens when I'm in a large org-file, and use the TOC, is that it takes over half the screen...

[Orgmode] How I run org-agenda -csv to create data for my ListPro program
I wanted to show how I use the org-batch-agenda-csv command
to create a file to import into the ListPro program
that I run on my Palm M515 handheld.
ListPro is from http://www.iliumsoft.com
In my .emacs file I have this helper function:
(defun org-csv-agenda ()
(org-batch-agenda-csv H)
)
The H refers to a prestored command:
(H Home NA Lists
((agenda)
(tags-todo HOME)
(tags-todo COMPUTER)
(tags-todo OFFICE)
(tags-todo DVD)
(tags-todo READING)
I run a Perl script agen2lpro.pl that runs the helper function,
captures the comma-separated output into a file, then processes
this file to create a tab-delimited file for importing into ListPro.
I manage my lists on the Palm and synchronise back to my Windows
Machine. The ListPro list can be exported to a tab delimited
and processed with another Perl script, but I don't attempt to
do any updating of the original org-mode file marking completed
items, but that is planned for the future.
Here is the Perl script
use strict;
use warnings;
my $emacs_exe = \D:\\Program
Files\\emacs_22\\emacs-22.1\\bin\\emacs.exe\;
my $work_file = agenwork.txt;
print Create CSV file using Emacs\n;
my $cmd = system($emacs_exe --batch -l c:/homes/charles/.emacs -f
org-csv-agenda $work_file);
print $work_file (workfile) Created.\nProcessing ...\n;
# The output of this script is a tab delimited file to import
# into ListPro. The fields are
#
# Description
# Category (OFFICE, HOME, DVD, or READING)
# Date - Either the scheduled date or blank.
# DateLoaded - Todays date in month and day format in order to
# identify Listpro items that originated from org-mode
my $listpro = listpro.txt;
open (my $fv, , $work_file) or die Could not open $work_file: $!\n;
open (my $of, , $listpro) or die Could not create $listpro: $!\n;
my @ltime = localtime();
my $datestring = sprintf(%d%d , $ltime[4] + 1, $ltime[3] );
print Version string $datestring\n;
my ($category, $headline, $type, $todo, $tags, $date, $time, $extra,
$priority_l, $priority_n);
while($fv) {
chomp;
($category, $headline, $type, $todo, $tags, $date, $time, $extra,
$priority_l, $priority_n) = split(/,/);
if ($tags =~ m/^([A-Za-z]+):/) {
$tags = $1;
}
$tags = uc($tags);
if ( ($type eq scheduled) or ($type eq typestamp) ) {
my @d = split(/-/, $date);# orgmode used -M-DD format
my $newdate = $d[2]./.$d[1]./.$d[0];
print $of $headline\t$tags\t$newdate\t$datestring\n;
}
if ( $type eq tagsmatch ) {
print $of $headline\t$tags\t\t$datestring\n;
}
}
print Finished! Now load the file $listpro into Listpro\n;

Re: [Orgmode] resheduling from agenda buffer
On Sep 28, 2007, at 3:15, Richard G Riley wrote: Two questions: 1) When following the instruction from the following link and rescheduling from the agenda buffer, why do I always get Item scheduled for nil in the message bufffer? his is just a bug, fixed now for the next version. 2) What is the reason behind having to manually refresh after a reschedule in the agenda buffer, why does it not do it automatically? Initially the reason was technical. Constructing the agenda can take a second or more, to automatically reconstructing it after each change forbids itself. Just moving around a changed line can be difficult. However, after giving up on trying to change everything live, I now happen to think that this is in fact good. What you really do is look at a list of tasks and appointments, and you do want to push things around. I really like to be able to modify several lines before getting a rearranged display. For example: - When things move around with each change I make, I constantly have to follow the changes with my eyes and memory, this is more tiring. - I change a TODO entry to DONE. That means it should not even be in the agenda anymore, and a live update would just get rid of the item. If you made a mistake in marking it done, it is hard to find the entry back and change it back. - I want to reschedule an item to next week. Will the display then move to next week? So I need to go back to today to continue working? Things like this. You *do* get visual feedback that an entry has been modified, and r is not hard to press. So even if I knew how to change it, I would not want to do it. (ps Carsten, if you are reading this I found the issue with org-return-follows-link - it has to be set before loading Org so cant be used in normal customization block).

Seems I've discovered a little bug (there's an easy workaround, see below), but I'm not sure it's org-mode fault: when I try to insert a time stamp (with C-c .), I can't select a date as explained in section 8.2.1 of the manual. So I just hit q to quit the calendar frame and enter a date by hand in the minibuffer. The time stamp is correctly inserted in my org buffer, but then, as soon as I hit any key, I get a Symbol's value as variable is void: displayed-month error in the minibuffer (even if I use mouse buttons). What is the setup you are using to get the calendar in a separate frame? Org-mode assumes that it is coming up in the *current* frame. Do your really need to press q to get rid of the calendar?

Re: [Orgmode] howto show all todo's linked with some buffer in agenda?
Jost Burkardt [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: One caveat though: file links contain context. Obviously, we don't want to be only able to find such links if the point is *exactly* where the context was defined from. So I suggest we get rid of the context when storing a link to the registry. Of course, not having a registry file would help here :) Similar problem may arise, when using bbdb links. Think of [[bbdb:Ludwig Beethoven]] and [[bbdb:beethoven]] which should both be matched, when I'm on the relevant entry. Maybe the search should do a match against some kind of fingerprint of the current buffer. No idea, about the impact on calculation time. Very true, I'll handle this as well. What do you mean by plain links, links within the same buffer or links without brackets? I think, it would be good to have all links, which will be recognised by ord, in the registry (O.K., excluding internal links). I mean links without brackets. For now the registry just skip them, because he's not able to decide whether this links are part of a full (bracketed) link or not. -- Bastien ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
