I have tasks that have deadlines months in the future and which need
tackling from now until the deadline, although obviously not
continuously.  Putting a warning on the deadline to cover the full
time range would fill my agenda view with deadlines, making it rather
ineffective!

Well, to use an example that I think the OP (Andrew) would identify
with, when a funding agency puts out a call for proposals, they will
give a strict deadline (e.g. 12 noon, 5 August 2009).  That date is
critical to the activity of writing the proposal if one intends to
apply for funding so the date gets put in my org file immediately.

Subsequently, when I figure out when I will have time to work on
writing the proposal, I will schedule the appropriate event.  I must
admit, however, that I do frequently simply put an active time stamp
on the note for when I want to work on this task.  I guess it depends
on the "granularity" of the scheduling of the task: if I intend to
work on it at some specific hour of the day, I'll use a time stamp; if
I intend to tackle the task "sometime" on Thursday, I'll schedule it.

The latter may be the wrong way to do it but the reality is that my
"planned" schedule often goes completely out the window due to
external factors and any time stamped activities disappear off the
agenda view the following day whereas scheduled items do not.  This
makes scheduling appealing as it allows me to say, the next day,
"ooops, I forgot to actually work on that proposal yesterday...".

YMMV, of course!

cheers,
eric

I think the OP has a time frame to execute some task. He doesn't want to
be bugged about it before SCHEDULED, and it will be too late after
DEADLINE.

Imagine you have to make a gift to someone on Sunday, but got so much
work to do that you won't be able to go to the mall before Thursday...
oh well, you can always buy online then, but that would defeat the point
of my example.

Then again, as someone said, a DEADLINE with an appropriate warning
delay would be fine in that case too.

I think this is a feature.
For example, if I get some books from a library, I use the deadline to
mark when I absolutely must return the books. The schedule tells me:
Hey, I am near the library this day, so I *want* to do this today. 
I absolutely want both informations in my agenda.

>From the manual:
DEADLINE
Meaning: the task (most likely a TODO item, though not necessarily) is
supposed to be finished on that date. 
SCHEDULED
Meaning: you are planning to start working on that task on the given
date.

You can set a different deadline for each item, but "avoiding this" totally
means avoiding crucial information in your agenda.

Good to here, that it worked on Windows (I always have to start my VM to
test there, and Win32 emacs is not that good configured here yet...).

Just pushed a version, that needs no dired and kills the `install.el'.
So all that remains is the `*Compile-Log*' buffer, which might be of
some use.
I find that less annoying.

Also, the autoload file is loaded after compiling.

Hi,

Is it possible to lock the CLOSED tag ? It may happen that I set back a FIXED

closed tag is overwrited. I would like to lock the closed tag as soon as it is 
set to a done tag.

Exactly. The beauty of Emacs is that there are multiple options for
everything. Overwriting org when I updated Carbon Emacs wasn't really an
issue for me because 1) Carbon Emacs is very rarely updated 2) I pull
the latest changes from the git repo and run make && make install every
day.

The reason I just threw org-mode in the Emacs.app directory is that I
also had EmacsCVS.app and wanted to keep separate byte-compiled for
Emacs 22 and Emacs 23.

If you're looking for the simplest way to install a byte-compiled
org-mode, I believe you could just clone the git repository to
~/org-mode, run make in the directory, and then add ~/org-mode/lisp to
your load path.

Well, I suppose in this case convenience is in the eye of the beholder.
E.g., pacman -S emacs-cvs. ;)

yes I have transient-mark-mode enabled.

Here is a simpler example to reproduce the bug:
--8<---cut here---start->8---
* Kapitel 1
   dingens
   foo bar

  bar foo
--8<---cut here---end-->8---

If you try to export only subtree 'Kapitel 1' to LaTeX you also have

Do you have transient-mark-mode enabled? I tested this with Emacs 22 and
when transient-mark-mode was enabled, it exported correctly (i.e., just
the 1st tree). When transient-mark-mode was turned off, I got the

I think adding the git-Org's lisp directory to the load path

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/path/to/org/lisp/")

should suffice, provided the lisp files are compiled. In that case a
second line should do:

   (require 'org-install)

But I'm not sure this works. I simply do

   sh$ rm -rf /usr/local/share/emacs/23.50.XX/lisp/org

after upgrading emacs, hence I cannot test it now.



This aspect of the load-path mechanism is not very well documented.

that worked, thanks!

It does beg the question of why these files aren't overwritten during
the installation from the git repo - I do the usual make clean && make
install && make doc routine. Is there something that I should be
amending before I do this?

[Orgmode] Bug in LaTeX export

2009-07-10 Thread Holst Thomas (DS-ET/ECF1)
Hello,

I think I discoverd a bug in LaTeX export. I mark a subtree with C-c @
and then export it to LaTeX with C-c C-e L.

If the subtree has no further subtrees the LaTeX-file not only contains
the region, but also the rest of the document to the end.

Here is an example:

,[ test.org ]
| * Kapitel 1
| ** Kapitel 1.1
|foo bar
| * Kapitel 2
|   bar foo
`

If the Kapitel 1.1 subtree is marked the LaTeX output looks like this:

,[ LaTeX output ]
| % Created 2009-07-10 Fr 12:33
| \documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article}
| \usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
| \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
| \usepackage{hyperref}
|
|
| \title{Kapitel 1.1}
| \author{Holst Thomas}
| \date{10 Juli 2009}
|
| \begin{document}
|
| \textbf{Kapitel 1.1}
|
| \setcounter{tocdepth}{3}
| \tableofcontents
| \vspace*{1cm}
|foo bar
| \begin{itemize}
| \item Kapitel 2
|   bar foo
| \end{itemize}
|
| \end{document}
`

Kapitel 2 is also included. This does not happen if the subtree has
additonal subtrees. If I mark the Kapitel 1 subtree the output is as
expected.

When the bug happens, `org-export-latex-default-class' does not work.
Instead the class 'article' is used.

It does not happen if the region is exported to ASCII or HTML.

My setup is:

emacs 22.2.1, WinXP, org-mode 6.28trans from yesterday.

I also observed this bug with org-mode 6.28b. And when I start emacs
with the option '-Q'.

Re: [Orgmode] Error when exporting as Latex

2009-07-10 Thread Karl Maihofer
Others may correct me but I think this is the same issue I had 
yesterday. The reason is that the two versions of Org - the one shipped 
with your Emacs and the latest one you installed by yourself conflict in 
some way. Some time ago the lisp-file for LaTeX export was renamed - 
perhaps this is why you get an error. My solution was to rename the 
Org-lisp-files in c:/bin/emacs-22.3/lisp/textmodes/. For example 
org-export-latex.elc gets org-export-latex.elc_save and so on. After 
that Emacs can only find the latest Org-version.


I then had to add

(require 'org-latex)

to my ~/.emacs. Hope that helps.

[Orgmode] Error when exporting as Latex

2009-07-10 Thread Paul Mead
Hi

I've only just spotted this error as I don't use the Latex export very
often. When I export as Latex either to file or buffer, I get the
following error:

org-export-latex-lists: Wrong number of arguments: #[(list)
"\"" [list org-list-to-generic (:splicep nil :ostart
"\\begin{enumerate}" :oend "\\end{enumerate}" :ustart "\\begin{itemize}"
:uend "\\end{itemize}" ...)] 3
("c:/bin/emacs-22.3/lisp/textmodes/org-export-latex.elc" . 39820)], 2

I've tested this on a file which is unchanged from when I last
successfully exported it, many org versions ago.

Org-mode version 6.28trans
GNU Emacs 22.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-09-06 on SOFT-MJASON

Any ideas?

Thanks, Paul

yes, I'm aware of those but I was rather referring to inline markup not
src/example blocks. To make it clearer, imagine something like this:

  Copy your configuration to /install-dir/conf.

Which ideally would be exported as

  Copy your configuration to /install-dir/conf.

This is something where a src/example block is not suitable.

Ulf

Until now I used Org with Debian GNU/Linux. Today I bought a MacBook

If I remember correctly. the old org lisp files are located in
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/textmodes.

I found it easiest to install the new org files directly to the
Emacs.app directory.



I've seen this approach mentioned several times, but I think it makes  
things more complicated then they should be. By keeping the app and  
the libs in separate places, the two can be updated independently.  
Emacs provides ample ways of supporting this style -- actually, I  
guess it was meant to work that way, until the bundles came along...


Of course, it's very convenient when you download Carbon Emacs (or  
others) that everything is in place, but since when do Linuxers care  
about convenience? :-)


Cheers,
Peter.

Err, whoops!

So let me turn the question around: why do you need to both SCHEDULE
and DEADLINE the same item?
  
In my mind, there is no conflict between scheduling and deadlining.  So, 
I may be missing something.  In my case, I am scheduling myself to work 
on an item that has a deadline.  I don't think that's an unusual 
scenario.  For example, I have a grant proposal I need to have a draft 
of by Monday (DEADLINE) but I've scheduled Thursday afternoon to work on 
it.  By putting SCHEDULED on it means that it gets attention on that day 
unless Murphy steps in.  If Murphy does, then I still have the benefit 
of the DEADLINE to keep me apprised of my dire situation.


An alternative (which I don't like) is to not use DEADLINE on a 
SCHEDULED item.  Instead, I can just attach a second date to the item 
and label it "deadline" or "drop dead date."  So, the best option I have 
now is to ignore the double entry.  I was hoping there was a magic 
variable(TM) for this like there was with the other issue.
 


You could specify a per deadline warning period. The example for the 
manual: DEADLINE: <2004-02-29 Sun -5d>, which will start prompting you 5 
days before the deadline. I use this to remind me that I need to start 
working on something which has a fixed deadline.


Ian.
