Hi Rick,

maybe subscribers of this list could send a short video just saying
hello to the cam? (making it fancy or org-related is not forbidden!)
Then we could grab all this and blend it nicely into the video...



I have made a little start here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPsJpP6Fp28

Bastien will try to cut together a little youtube video about
Org-mode so that we can submit the youtube address of that to
the competition.

I think it would be really great if there would be clips from more
people in that movie, both contributors and users.  If you'd like
to help, please make a little movie of you saying a few sentences
or showing off something interesting, and put the video somewhere
where Bastien can pick it up.  All these clips need to be short, so
that people actually would like to watch it through.
I understand that Bastien will work on this during the weekend,
so we do not have a lot of time.

I think the real problem here is the logistics of this.  Does anyone
have any experience with video?  Personally I'd like to see Carsten
(obviously), but I think the contributor net should be widened to
include at least one person who's made a significant contribution to
documenting org-mode best-practice, e.g. Bernt, Russel etc...

It'd be really nice to have the videos touch on both user and
developer perspective's, and perhaps even the fantastic community
interplay that occurs on this list.

[Orgmode] Re: Agenda view: How many hours did I work today, and on what

2009-06-11 Thread Daniel Clemente


 The clock report in the agenda is mainly for reporting the time spent
 working on items.  If you want to compare estimates with clocked amounts
 for a particular subtree I would use a dynamic clock table instead.

  Thanks, dynamic clock tables are useful. However, the table format is still 
unmanageable in interesting reports like:
#+BEGIN: clocktable :maxlevel 99 :scope agenda
#+END:

  I think more advanced visualisations can be obtained from that; even graphs, 
charts with statistics, etc. (now that we have gnuplot, R, graphviz, even more).
  Mmm... or even interactive and powerful ones with JavaScript and jQuery. I 
expect to see real-scale time and calendar grids some day in org.


  Back to work,
-- Daniel

Thanks Carsten for the response.



Most likely you have downloaded Org from the web (from git???) but  
not built

org-install.el by running make.



I have been using the git version (only yesterday I had download after
you fixed the other problem related to org-protecting-blocks and
could not access git repository). And I have not byte-compiled before.


I tried make on the git version now, I get this error:


In toplevel form:
lisp/org-exp.el:31:1:Error: Symbol's value as variable is void: org- 
protecting-blocks

make: *** [lisp/org-exp.elc] Error 1



Or you are not doing (require 'org-install) in .emacs.

2009-06-11 Thread Matthew Lundin
First let me say congratulations to Carsten and everyone else on
receiving this honor. Org-mode deserves every bit of recognition it
receives!

Brian van den Broek van...@gmail.com writes:

 1. Complete this sentence in about 140 characters: Our project is
 [-foo-].  For example, Our project is a tool that helps you wash your
 car.

 Org-mode allows you to master your personal and project information
 your way, in plain text, with features which stay out of your way
 until you want them, all backed by the power of Emacs.

 (I didn't notice a mention of Emacs in other suggestions; seems
 essential to me.)

I very much like Brian's description of org-mode. I think it does a nice
job of capturing the power and flexibility of the tool. 

I myself have been puzzling over this question and haven't been able to
come up with a pithy sentence that sums up the full scope org-mode.
While I think that org-mode is first and foremost a productivity tool,
those unfamiliar with it might be inclined to see it as just one more
GTD application. But as org-mode aficionados know, it is much, much
more. It is an outliner (the best ever, IMHO), a wiki, a publishing
environment, a note-taking tool, an ad-hoc database system, a
spreadsheet editor, a bookmark manager, etc. In addition to managing
todos and projects, org-mode allows one to perform in one place all
sorts of little tasks (making quick tables, storing random bits of
information, organizing web bookmarks, etc) that would otherwise require
several big GUI applications to accomplish. And it does so in data that
is fully portable. In this sense, Emacs and org-mode offer a truly
integrated computing environment. Org-mode can operate as a simple
outliner and scheduler; but it can also easily serve as a digital hub
that manages and links to everything else. This is something that other
applications often promise---and that many pundits point to as the
future of cloud computing---but that remains, for many computer users,
an elusive dream. Org mode takes us back to the future, as it were. On
the one hand, it takes us back to the basics of plain text. On the other
hand, it points towards a future of truly integrated computing, in which
the walls surrounding big, old-fashioned GUI applications and closed
operating systems are broken down.

That's not 140 characters, alas. 

Congratulations again!

- Matt

[Orgmode] Compile new Org, help needed

2009-06-11 Thread Nicolas Aggelidis
hi to all org-users!

i am rather new to your community.
i am using org with emacs22 in windows vista64 for the last month and
it slowly Changes the Way I Do Everything (to imitate the upcoming
award!).

I was wondering how i can compile the newer version of org, so that i
can enjoy the latest and greatest!

thanks in advance for any pointers you provide!

1.) Pull the git repo: http://orgmode.org/index.html#sec-3.2

2.) Follow the (straightforward) install instructions here:
http://orgmode.org/manual/Installation.html#Installation 

3.) If want that (I don't), compile the sources.

I lately found the great compile feature in dired:

a) `C-x d /path/to/org-mode/lisp/ RET'

b) `C-n C-n' to have point on the first *.el file.

c) Hold the `m' key, until all *.el files are marked
   (i.e. highlighted). 

d) Press `B' to compile all the marked files. 


Repeat the marking (c) and compiling (d) several times, until no error occurs
anymore.



Best regards

   Sebastian

Any ideas here? Bigger unicorn, or a screenshot?


A friend of mine did the graphical work for the first unicorn.

Maybe I can ping him and ask for a bigger/fancier Unicorn?

If so, what background symbolic directions shall I give him
to inspire a new/better Unicorn?



please find attached a draft of a different graphical approach,

I think using analogy and metaphor might be a more effective way to
get the message across in 140 characters.  So rather than describing
org-mode features in this constraint are we not better using the
opportunity to pique curiosity?  And align ourselves with the OSCON
audience?

After all not even worg, the org manual and the years of discussions
on this list have managed to adequately describe org-mode!  Attempting
to do so in 140 characters seems impossible...

How about?

Org is the life hacker's tool of choice; you'll hack productivity into your
schedule, like you use Emacs to cut code!

[Orgmode] Links restricted to headlines retain the star in HTML?

2009-06-11 Thread Stefan Vollmar

Hello,

I am using org-mode 6.27. In the manual it says: Links starting with  
a star like ‘*My Target’ restrict the search to headlines.


I want to make sure a particular link refers to a headline and use:
[[*This is a headline somewhere]]
However, I find that the link (when exported to HTML) also starts with  
a star - is this intentional?


Many thanks in advance.

Hi Memnon,

I do to some extend agree with you.  The buffer picture does
look very colored and a bit unrealistic.  A real buffer would
look less colored because the distribution between text and
functional elements would be different.  These lines are so short
to make them readable at all in a screenshot.

I actually do use these colors currently and find them quite
workable.

The main issue here is: what if the function of this picture?
It will be on a page together with 9 other colorful logos
or screenshots.  If we show just a window of text, it will
look complete boring in this context, and then I'd much rather
use only the Unicorn.

If people only do as much as clicking through to the homepage,
they will see an image with less color there, and this will
adjust their expectation I am sure.

I would disagree.  This really sound like yet another GTD app.

I also do like Brian's description a lot.  But it is 190 characters,
I am not sure if we can stretch the about 140 this much?  I have
been trying to shorten it a bit - please check if it still captures
the essence.

Here is the current state of our reply to Sourceforge - please  
comment



1. Complete this sentence in about 140 characters: Our project is
[-foo-].  For example, Our project is a tool that helps you wash
your
car.



   Org-mode masters personal/project information your way, in plain
text,
   with features out of your way until you want them, backed by the
   power of Emacs.

text, with features hidden until needed, backed by the power of

(unless (string-match Our project is a sourceforge-submission- 
sentence 0)

 (message shouldn't we follow the instructions?))


1. Complete this sentence in about 140 characters: Our project is
[-foo-].


This is a good point, maybe they will be picky about it.

Also, I am now thinking the 140 chars, what to the english native  
speakers here think:  Is this includin or excluding the given sentence  
start?

2. Complete this sentence, also in about 140 characters: We
should win
because [-bar-].  For example, We should win because we have a
strong
community and we solve a universal problem.


   We should win because by allowing people to evolve their
   productive selves, org-mode has created one of the best
   communities in the open-source world.


We should win because org-mode, by making users more productive, has
spawned one of the best communities in the open-source world.


3. Please provide a logo (or screenshot, if you'd prefer) for your
project.  It should be at least 640x480, but we'll also be showing
it as a thumbnail.


I am attaching the picture to this email, you can also retrieve it
from

http://orgmode.org/Org-mode-scc.png

(((Thanks to Greg Newman for fixing up the unicorn and pasting it
nicely into the screenshot - any objections against this picture?
Note that it needs to work as a thumbnail as well, which this one
will, I believe.)))

For the time being, I am sending you this link, which is a Google
Tech Talk
by me (Carsten Dominik, main author of Org-mode).

   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJTwQvgfgMM

Before the deadline you should get another email from Bastien  
Guerry,

with a link to a new video which we made just for this occasion.
If so, please link to that video instead.


5. In some cases, I'm mailing several people in your community
because I don't know who the right person is.  If you're not the
right person for me to be dealing with, please let me know.
I certainly don't want to be irritating.

6. Our finalists are usually pretty interesting people.  Are you
willing to be contacted by our public relations team about
interviews with the press?


Yes.

Re: [Orgmode] Links restricted to headlines retain the star in HTML?

2009-06-11 Thread Carsten Dominik

Hello,

I am using org-mode 6.27. In the manual it says: Links starting  
with a star like ‘*My Target’ restrict the search to headlines.


I want to make sure a particular link refers to a headline and use:
[[*This is a headline somewhere]]


I think you will be better off using a different method
to link to a headline, this is safer and produces links where you
can set the link text yourself.

Go to the target headline and press C-c C-l to store a link, this will  
create an ID and a link to it.


Insert the link with C-c C-l and enter your description text.

However, I find that the link (when exported to HTML) also starts  
with a star - is this intentional?


I think it should not begin with a star, yes.

- Carsten



Many thanks in advance.
Warm regards,
Stefan

Thanks Carsten for the response.



Most likely you have downloaded Org from the web (from git???) but  
not built

org-install.el by running make.



I have been using the git version (only yesterday I had download after
you fixed the other problem related to org-protecting-blocks and
could not access git repository). And I have not byte-compiled before.


I tried make on the git version now, I get this error:


In toplevel form:
lisp/org-exp.el:31:1:Error: Symbol's value as variable is void: org- 
protecting-blocks

make: *** [lisp/org-exp.elc] Error 1



Or you are not doing (require 'org-install) in .emacs.

Please read the installation section in the manual.

 I haven't contributed anything to this project, so I feel a little funny
suggesting anything.  But I really like org mode and hope you win, so
here's another version:

Our project is an extensible outliner that lets you collect your
thoughts in a text file in Emacs and organizes them to make
them useful.

Congratulations and good luck!

 That screen shot looks very beautiful. There's one minor glitch. The
 font is non anti-alias.


I just want to second this point about font anit-ailising.  For better
or worse, I'm scared that for people scanning through many pictures, the
only take-away from this image will be that the font looks like it's
from the early 90s.

I'm not doing so well at following instructions for this task :-[

To this native English speaking ear, it naturally interprets as asking 
for approx. 140 chars to be added to the `Our project is' lead in. 
However, the phrasing is a bit ambiguous.


What about changing the project's name to `OM'? That'd shave 6 more 
chars! ;-)
