Re: [Orgmode] Question re CATEGORY and Agenda Views
Markus Heller helle...@gmail.com writes: Hello, I apologize if this is RTFM, i couldn't find the answer. Maybe it's also because of a misconception on my part. I have a .org file with the following setup (HEAVILY inspired by Bernt Hansen, http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html): * ABC1 :PROPERTIES: :CATEGORY: Bugfixes :PROJECT: ABC1 :END: ** STARTED Find bugs ** STARTED Fix bugs * ABC2 :PROPERTIES: :CATEGORY: Bugfixes :PROJECT: ABC2 :END: ** STARTED Find bugs ** STARTED Fix bugs So I have 2 different projects with identical tasks. If I bring up the agenda and list all STARTED tasks, I get a list that looks like: Bugfixes: STARTED Find bugs :NEXT: Bugfixes: STARTED Fix bugs :NEXT: Bugfixes: STARTED Find bugs :NEXT: Bugfixes: STARTED Fix bugs :NEXT: So the first column is taken from the CATEGORY property. How can I change this so that the actual project is displayed in the agenda view? I would expect that I'd have to use the PROJECT property, but how do I do this? Or is my whole idea flawed? * Files To be honest, I never used the CATEGORY property at all, simply because that's a kind of information I need to see anyway and to put that information into a drawer is counterproductive. I'm still waiting for the day/mail when I apprehend the use of CATEGORY ;) Instead, I use one file per customer (or even project) and the file name is seen in the agenda. So I would have an `ABC1.org' and an `ABC2.org' [fn:1]. If I don't use one of those files anymore (everything is DONE and the customer is not likely to call anymore), I remove the file from the list of my agenda files. * Headlines Fix Bugs is my job, so why should I have a to-do entry with that title in one of my files? It wouldn't say anything about the task without context. That said, I would have to expand the entry when visiting the Org-file, just to find out what that entry is all about. In short, I use headlines that actually say something about the task. That way, never ran into an issue with two identical headlines. While the headline of two entries could be identical, the to-do state of those entries will be different. One of them will be DONE and thus not show up in the agenda. As an example, a bug could show up again for some reason, but I have to add a new entry, because the old one is billed already and therefore DONE. For small things that go in my organizer.org, I use tags which show up in the agenda, too.

[Orgmode] diary-remind, and org-agenda, and remember
Hi all,
I'm trying to implement a quick and easy way to add birthday reminder
functionality to my orgmode setup. For this purpose, I've been using
sexp's like this (for example):
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 9 20 t) -14) John's birthday..
When these appear in an org file, I get a reminder in the agenda
timeline view everyday for 14 days preceding the date in question.
Seems to work okay.
I have, however, been noticing some weirdness. Or maybe I just
misunderstand how this all works.
For example, this will work in an org file (the reminders show up on the
agenda):
* Birthdays
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
But this will *not* work in an org file (the reminders do *not* show
up):
* Birthdays
** %%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
** %%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
I'm using the latest orgmode from the repository.
Anyway, this normally wouldn't be too much of a bother except that I'm
experimenting with org-remember to add the dates, and this seems to have
its own problems.
(I was recently having trouble with using '%' signs in the org remember
templates, but this particular problem has been solved. Thanks!)
For example, when I have this in my dates.org file:
* Birthday
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
with a remember template that looks like this:
(setq org-remember-templates
'(
(Birthday ?b %\\%(diary-remind '(diary-date %^{Month} %^{Day} t)
-%^{Remind days}) %^{Brief Description}%? ~/pim/gtd/dates.org Birthdays)
)
)
then I get this when I finish with C-c C-c:
* Birthdays
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
** Thu Sep 10 19:06:55 2009 (%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 12 12 t) -12) 12)
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 12 12 t) -12) 12
This is not what I was expecting. I'm not sure what's happening there.
Of course, if I set up my dates.org to look like this:
* Birthdays
** %%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
** %%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
and set up my remember template like this:
(setq org-remember-templates
'(
(Birthday ?b * %\\%(diary-remind '(diary-date %^{Month} %^{Day}
t) -%^{Remind days}) %^{Brief Description}%? ~/pim/gtd/dates.org Birthdays)
)
)
I get this in dates.org when I press C-c C-c:
* Birthdays
** %%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
** %%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
** %%(diary-remind '(diary-date 12 12 t) -12) New birthday
Which would be okay except that, as noted above, org agenda doesn't seem
to pick up on these kinds of dates when they're in a heading.
Perhaps remember isn't the right tool for this?
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

For example, when I have this in my dates.org file:
* Birthday
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
with a remember template that looks like this:
(setq org-remember-templates
'(
(Birthday ?b %\\%(diary-remind '(diary-date %^{Month} %^{Day} t)
-%^{Remind days}) %^{Brief Description}%? ~/pim/gtd/dates.org Birthdays)
)
)
then I get this when I finish with C-c C-c:
* Birthdays
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
** Thu Sep 10 19:06:55 2009 (%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 12 12 t) -12) 12)
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 12 12 t) -12) 12
I think org-remember automatically adds a heading for purposes of
filing. Otherwise remember items could easily get lost.
Would something like this work?
--8---cut here---start-8---
(setq org-remember-templates
'(
(Birthday ?b * %^{Title}\n %\\%(diary-remind '(diary-date
%^{Month} %^{Day} t) %^{Remind days}) %^{Brief Description}%?
~/pim/gtd/dates.org Birthdays)
)
)
--8---cut here---end---8---
I'm wondering, though, whether it wouldn't be easier to navigate to the
birthdays heading and simply kill, yank, and edit to create a new
birthday, e.g.,
--8---cut here---start-8---
* Birthday
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 1 6 t) -14) Suzie's birthday.
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 11 5 t) -14) John's birthday.
%%(diary-remind '(diary-date 3 5 t) -14) George's birthday.
--8---cut here---end---8---
Adding George's birthday just took me only a few seconds.
Best,
Matt

Good point. How often during a day do you hear about a new birthday
you need to add? Remember is really for repetitive stuff one
does all the time. Setting up a remember template for this
tasks takes probably more time than it will ever save you.
Desmond, if you insist: Use a separate file for these, and use
the symbol `bottom' as the headline specification.
