Hi Adam,
I do not feel comfortable with this specialized filtering, so I am not
implementing it. It seems incorrect that the export of the exact same
Org file would lead to different iCal files, depending on the day when
you do the export.
Sorry - either I have accidentally misled you, or my understanding is
missing some nuance of your argument, because it was certainly not my
intention to propose a mechanism which would produce different results
depending on when the export is done. I simply wanted to suggest that
there could be a property which would have the same effect upon iCal
export as would manually deleting the directive to repeat ('.+2w' or
similar) from the end of the task's timestamp. This would maintain
the existing behaviour for repeated tasks within Org, but display it
as a non-repeating task in my external calendaring clients
(korganizer, ScheduleWorld, Google Calendar, my Nokia phone etc.)
The motivation is that while I very much like org's functionality for
automatically updating the timestamp on a repeated task once it has
been marked as done, I do not want tasks such as water plants
cluttering up my calendar forever into the future. I only care about
the next plant watering, not all others thereafter, and with screen
real estate always short in supply (especially on mobile devices!),
any possible savings are of value.
Actually, now I think about it more, the above decluttering argument
applies equally to the Org agenda itself. So if it would be a more
consistent request from the point of view of maintaining an intuitive
UI or from ease of implementation, I would be perfectly happy if the
proposed property disabled display of all but the first instance of
the repeated task *everywhere*, i.e. not only in iCal exports, but
also in agenda displays.
It seems to be fine for the program displaying the info to do such
filtering - this is what Org does in the agenda.
Unfortunately, since the proposed filtering is per-event, with
uni-directional export to other clients, the only place it can be done
is at the source, i.e. within Org. Otherwise some layering of extra
filtering meta-data per-event would be required for each external
calendaring client, which would be extremely cumbersome.

This is particularly important if a template has all three of %? %! and %, otherwise %? is effectively ignored when %! and % are present. That does now work, I believe. It seems to ensure that the point is wherever % was, rather than wherever %? was. Is that intentional? 2) It doesn't seem possible to set up a template so that it will always insert at the very top of a particular file. I really miss that, since I keep most TODOs at the top level, and I like a newest first view by default when not in the agenda. Well, the newest first is no problem, just use the first headline in the file as remember target and configure the variable org-reverse- note-order to make sure that the specified file it treated in this way. Having said that, you can now use `top' or `bottom' as values for the remember target heading, and the note will then be filed as a level 1 entry to the top or bottom of the file, respectively. That's *exactly* what I was after, and I love the way you've implemented it; thanks! 3) I am a bit confused by the 'Selection interface for heading' 5th option of a remember template. It doesn't seem to have any effect - how is it supposed to interact with `org-remember-store-without-prompt'? Yes, this is confusing, I agree. When `org-remember-store-without-prompt' is set (which is the default), all the positioning interface stuff is completely by-passed. Setting nil for file or headline really means: use the default, taken from `org-default-notes-file' and `org-remember-default-heading', respectively.

As the *default* behaviour, without another behaviour being very specifically requested by the user, I entirely agree :-) I am adding a hook, `org-before-save-iCalendar-file-hook'. You can add some special cookie in the headline of the entry, and then search for this cookie in the exported file and remove the repetition rule. How about that?

Org has the variable `org-agenda-repeating-timestamp-show-all' which allows to modify this behavior for all repeating time stamps, not for individual ones, though.

Ultimately, the tools are there to serve their masters, and the iCal format is simply a medium for communicating user data between end-points in a standard interoperable fashion. It is up to the users to determine what data actually needs to be communicated via the format. In my case, if I should explicitly request the tool to hide the repetition of events in order to avoid cluttering my display, I see nothing incorrect about the tool doing just that. Likewise, as another hypothetical example, if all my events had LOCATION properties, it would be equally valid and correct to export them to one iCal file for use with korganizer on a full desktop display, and to another iCal file with the LOCATION properties trimmed out to save space on a mobile phone display.

[Orgmode] Two patches against exporting as ascii
Two patches are attached below, to polish some behaviors of exporting as ascii. They are made in GNU Emacs' source tree. The first one fixes the length of toc underline in the exported text. In multibyte context, using `length' makes the underline shorter than the toc name. The second one makes exporting as ascii regard the value of `fill-column'. Since normally the text is filled with M-q, which adjusts the text according to its value, I think replacing the fixed value 80 with `fill-column' can generate more pretty ascii text.

What do you mean by clean.
You can use `C-c C-a' to show everything, or S-TAB once or several

Re: [Orgmode] Bug: switch state of invisible todo item

However, I have found a small but irritating bug when using `org-clock-in-switch-to-state'. Nothing terribly important if you have other priorities, but it still gets me every so often. Thanks very much for your help in advance, Reimar Hi Raimar, this bug is now fixed, thank you for your detailed and very clear report. - Carsten * Summary: When the variable `org-clock-in-switch-to-state' is set and the todo item to be clocked in is invisible in the org buffer, `org-agenda-clock-in' switches the todo state of the wrong headline. Instead of the actual item, the state of its visible parent is changed. * To reproduce this bug: 1) Starting with a clean emacs with only org-mode loaded, evaluate: (setq org-clock-in-switch-to-state STARTED) 2) Then open the file testtasks.org, which reads (the 2nd level heading will be folded by default): ,[ testtasks.org ] | -*- mode: org; -*- | #+SEQ_TODO: TODO STARTED | DONE | * Tasks: | ** TODO Task1 | ` 3) Add this file to the agenda list with C-c [ and call the todo agenda with `M-x org-agenda' `t'. Then, press `I' (org-agenda-clock-in) on the line testtasks: TODO Task1. 4) Now `testtasks.org' looks like this (of course, the Task1 line is still folded, but not the clock line): ,[ testtasks.org ] | -*- mode: org; -*- | #+SEQ_TODO: TODO STARTED | DONE | * STARTED Tasks: | ** TODO Task1 |CLOCK: [2008-06-04 Wed 14:00] | ` Note that the parent headline `Tasks' had the todo keyword changed, not the `Task1' headline. When the `Task1' headline is visible, its todo state gets changed correctly. * Related obervation: After reverting the todo state back to `TODO' and folding it, the same bug occurs when one clocks into Task1 via `C-u M-x org-clock-in'. The bug must therefore be in `org-clock-in', where something like a `show-all' is missing in the (save-excursion (save-restriction ...)) part (target-pos is set to the correct value 61).

Re: [Orgmode] Two patches against exporting as ascii
These are good proposals, I am accepting the patch, thanks. - Carsten On Jun 13, 2008, at 2:17 PM, Herbert Euler wrote: Two patches are attached below, to polish some behaviors of exporting as ascii. They are made in GNU Emacs' source tree. The first one fixes the length of toc underline in the exported text. In multibyte context, using `length' makes the underline shorter than the toc name. The second one makes exporting as ascii regard the value of `fill-column'. Since normally the text is filled with M-q, which adjusts the text according to its value, I think replacing the fixed value 80 with `fill-column' can generate more pretty ascii text.

Implementing such a processing in every calendaring tools would be a massive duplication. The iCal to iCal converter is the way to go, IMO. I see your point. The main disadvantage is that it doesn't work if you want to apply the filter to the view in the client which originally generated the iCal from the master event data (in our case, org-mode) - you'd have to export it, pass it through the filter, then reimport it ... ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] C-a on a TODO entry
Hi, I stumbled on a weird behaviour today: If I create a TODO entry like this: ** TODO something to do :myTag: C-a will toggle the pointer possition between beginning of the line and end fo the TODO string, which is cool: ** TODO something to do :myTag: ^ ^ But if I delete the entry title like so: ** TODO :myTag: C-a is broken meaning it won't go to the end of the TODO string. Instead it goes to the biginnning of the tag: ** TODO :myTag: ^ ^ Regards, Cezar ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] org-annotation-helper and gmail
Hello Danie (and list)l: When I use the annotation button on selected text in a gmail tab on firefox3, gmail blanks out. An org-remember buffer is opened; however the text is not inserted into the buffer. Is this a general feature of org-annotation-helper vis-a-vis Gmail, or something particular to my own setup? I do still get the selected text in the remember buffer, all on one line as mentioned elsewhere. I'm happy with that.
