Re: [Orgmode] bug in org-remember?
Hi Carsten --
I tested this morning on a different computer with identical config
files before I upgraded org-mode to the most recent version. On that
earlier version (I think it was 6.15trans), org-remember worked fine as
expected. After upgrading (to version 6.16d), I experienced the
behavior described in my earlier email. I just upgraded to the latest
version (6.16trans), and I still get the error. See backtrace and
org/remember set-up below.
(Incidentally, after reading Charles Cove's report of a similar
problem, I tried hitting C-c C-c a second time on the same remember
template; I still get the same error I received before.)

Re: [Orgmode] org-mode to iphone?
As a more-useful alternative to my ha-ha-only-serious "email" response, look at the export-to-HTML functions. I haven't gotten here yet with org-mode, but I understand they're pretty powerful -- and HTML is perfect for the iPhone. A robust HTML interface to your org-mode would be much more useful than a native iPhone app, IMHO, and without the landmines of interfacing with iCal et.al. My previous organization system (Python-based) had a simple CGI interface to parse my sources into HTML with CSS for the iPhone; it worked surprisingly well, including hyperlinks that sent me email noting that I'd "checked off" an item -- I didn't trust myself to actually change state from the iPhone, but sent a "check off the item manually" reminder. Once I've got my Emacs-native org-mode where I want it, I plan on tackling the iPhone display and sharing my code with the list. It should be pretty easy to write a mod_python handler to pull org-mode source from Git or Subversion and run that through the elisp interpreter...

Re: [Orgmode] graphing from org-tables
Hi Dan,
This looks very interesting, and I look forward to playing around with
these functions (when I have some/any free time).
After a quick glance it seems like these functions could be expanded in
two different directions...
1) Adapted to a simple calling mechanism like the one used for org-plot
which relies solely on a couple of parameters stuffed into a #+PLOT
line next to a table. I think this would be a good option for org
users who are more comfortable w/R than w/gnuplot.
2) Also interesting is the idea of referencing a table from a block of R
code elsewhere in the org file. I've worked some on processing
blocks of R code in org files in a manner similar to Sweave.
http://github.com/eschulte/org-contrib/tree/master/org-exp-blocks.el
If we could implement a simple means of referencing tables (either
whole tables, or cells/cols/rows of tables) from these R-code blocks
then that seems like it may be fairly powerful.
Thanks -- Eric

It is currently possible to parse this content using `icalendar-import-file', which transforms the contents of an ical file into diary entries, which could themselves be included into the org-agenda. I guess a real solution would need not only to parse the ical file, but then to find the related headers inside of the users org files (probably by searching the contents of org-agenda-files for headers with the same ID) and then to update the header's contents with information from the ical information to update the headers. While updating general comments may be difficult to implement at least updating properties of the entry like (location, time, etc...) should be fairly easy to implement as icalendar.el can handle all of the ical parsing. Would this be related to generating headers with org-remember?

Re: [Orgmode] ido slow for outline path completion
On Dec 21, 2008, at 10:24 PM, Samuel Wales wrote: Hi Carsten, I just meant that there are 3 path completion entry points (remember, which can also use refile; refile; and goto), and they are similar, but are specified differently (e.g. maxlevel variable in goto and alist in refile). So, maybe there is a way to make the syntax for specifying them consistent for new users. Perhaps goto can use refile's path selection subsystem. That allows basename flex matching (by turning off org-refile-use-outline-path, useful for me as an interim workaround for ido bugs) and other stuff like specifying the list of files to search. Hi Samuel, org-goto is different because it only goes to the current file. Refile was originally meant to go to a selected class of headings. You can use the refile command itself including its setup to *go* some place by calling org-refile with a prefix argument. A double prefix will make the command jump directly to the location where the last refile event delivered its content. - Carsten By the way, if you type "?" a few times using ido, it will show a completions buffer. But here's the interesting part: that showed one path, which was "mytodo//" plus the full path name of the file -- not the outline path. M might be another clue?
