You can inhibit this interpretation of the string by explicitly informing the code block that you will be returning a string with the :results scalar header argument.

Re: [O] [calfw] Better use of space
Hi Rasmus, At Thu, 21 Jul 2011 10:57:45 +0200, Rasmus wrote: : I have a feature request for Calfw. Masashi, would you prefer these to be posted here or on your github page? I like here because I can get more comments than do in other channels. I'm sorry that other members does not feel noisy. I can catch both track and I will manage incoming issues and my progress. Then, I will announce calfw updates here. Anyhow, the month view is just superb! However, when using especially the two week view (and this is probably also true for the week view) I would like calfw to utilize vertical space better. By 'better' I basically mean that I would like calfw to be greedy. Refer to the following screenshot: http://ompldr.org/vOWtjdA Compare (the second week) to Google Cal: http://ompldr.org/vOWtjdg Seeing there is a lot of space left in each of Calfw's day-column it would be nice if it could be used to enhance the overview. This could for example be archived mapping events against time on the vertical axis as the Google calendar does (and also Mozilla Lightning but it no longer work on my system). This might also allow for printing more text from the even entry (using multiple lines). Thanks for your request and good images. I think this request involves 3 functions. * Time table layout I think this function is very difficult, because it needs many study for me to implement, including following functions. Of course, I consider the time table view is one of the goal of calfw. * Display multiple-lines items (the source splits an item multiple lines.) This is not so difficult. In this mechanism, the source objects can propose some formats, for example, 15:00 appointment and (15:00-15:30 appointment). Then, calfw chooses the suitable format and displays in the current layout algorithm. I will design the interface between cfw:source and calfw, and implement it. * Word-wrapping and folding lines (calfw splits lines within a column.) This is little difficult. I think word-wrapping, folding lines and truncating strings can not be achieved in the narrow columns straightforwardly. I need a time to study this issue. On the other hand we probably also want to make sure that it is still works on a 800x600 display. Thus, it might be best to introduce a governing variable. Yes. It is good idea.

Hello, Bastien b...@altern.org writes: Bastien b...@altern.org writes: I reverted this commit. We need a better solution for the problem this commit was trying to solve. I should add that I tested Nicolas' patch and it worked okay for me, but I should have tested it better. So, my bad on this one. In fact, the problem is that when a time-stamp is changed, the old one is completely deleted (which is logical). A marker is useless when text is removed under it. So, saving point, saving marker, or even saving a line-column combination can't help here. Now, the good news are that we can tell exactly in which part of the time-stamp the point was before. A general solution would be to keep point before the new time-stamp, look at it, and move to the right part. A refinement could be to try to keep the same position within the part. If point was at year, month, day (number), the column will be the same because they all have fixed size. But if it was past there, we have to check how far it was from the beginning of the part, and put it there, unless this happens to be after the end of that part, in which case, it will simply be put at the last position in it. I can't work on it before a dozen of hours, though. I will do it then unless someone wants to take care of it before. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou

No you need to create the folder from the Emacs side. Example setup; 1. Install dropbox on your linux/windows box 2. Make sure its started (setsid ~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd) 3. mkdir ~/Dropbox/syncdir 4. From emacs (setq org-mobile-directory ~/Dropbox/syncdir) M-x org-mobile-push 5.

[O] [DEV]
Hello all, I have decided to work on a startup dot el package geared around orgmode. I want to get it up to a basic functionality before I allow it to be distributed and I know I still have some work to do to get it to that point. My first goal is have a file open on either the left or the right and a somewhat customizable agenda buffer on the other side. What I am trying to accomplish is the providing of a easy to use interface for beginners in org-mode to get started and use it for task/project management. The agenda view will be a user definable number of days calendar with a user defined number of days in the future view of upcoming deadlines or just unscheduled deadlines (a choice between the two may have to be implemented in the future as my skills grow and more contribute?) and at the bottom we would find TODO keywords (maybe I need to change this to != all not done keywords in the future) that are not scheduled and do not have a deadline on them (kind of a someday/sometime todos). What I am needing to know is about adding an agenda view via a .el file to the custom agenda views. Could I do that, something like this: -Cut here---start code---cut here---start code- (add-to-list '(org-agenda-custom-commands (quote ( (s Startup View --Cut Here---end codecut hereend code When I get my basic idea for the package outlined a little more I will ask for some help with testing on it at the github I have setup.

Re: [O] [PATCH] Fix %e agenda format and refresh of agenda items in general
Here is an updated patch, its split into 3 very small part, belowe is an explanaton of each: 1. First patch is my original patch to fix error with %e agenda format. 2. Second patch fixes what I beleive to be a logic bug. Most agenda related commands have the following format: (defun org-agenda-do-STUFF () (org-with-remote-undo buffer (with-current-buffer buffer ;; change the item (call-interactively 'org-do-STUFF) (setq newhead (org-get-heading))) ;; refresh agenda lines that have same marker (org-agenda-change-all-lines newhead hdmarker))) The problem is with (org-agenda-change-all-lines). It calls (org-format-agenda-item) on each item, but with the current buffer being the agenda buffer and not the original item's buffer. Also (org-format-agenda-item) expects the agenda item format to be in the variable org-prefix-format-compiled. But when called by (org-agenda-change-all-lines), that variable is not restored, and instead has stale value from the last block of the agenda. This causes the items to be randomly reformatted with last block's agenda format, when they are changed. My second patch fixes above problem, by making (org-agenda-change-all-lines) call (org-format-agenda-item) in the same way as when item was originally generated including changing to the item's buffer, and restoring the correct compiled format variable. 3. Third patch changes (org-agenda-set-effort) to refresh the item. It requires the 2nd patch to work. 0003-Fix-error-with-e-agenda-prefix-format-when-there-is-.patch Description: Binary data 0007-org-agenda-change-all-lines-Change-to-item-s-buffer-.patch Description: Binary data 0008-org-agenda-set-effort-Refresh-changed-lines.patch Description: Binary data
[O] New version which is compatible with emacs 24: New function to view your notes in chronological order
Hello !
Unfortunately, org-find-timestamps as posted before was not compatible with
emacs 24.
(More precise, it hat problems with the read-only property, that emacs 24
applies to text within the occur-buffer)
The version below is now compatible with both emacs 23 and 24.
Have fun !
with kind regards, Marc-Oliver Ihm
(defun org-find-timestamps ()
Find inactive timestamps within a date-range and maybe sort them.
This function can help to bring the notes, that you take within
org-mode, into a chronological order, even if they are scattered
among many different nodes. The result is somewhat like a diary,
listing your notes for each successive day. Please be aware
however: This intended usage requires, that you routinely
insert inactive timestamps into the notes that you write.
org-find-timstamps works by creating a regular expression to
match a given range of dates, doing a search for it and
displaying the results either as a sparse tree or with the help
of occur. The original buffer is not modified.

[O] Copy/Search Outline
Hi all, when working with outlines (tabbing until CONTENTS), there are two things I cannot figure out: Firstly, I want to copy the *visible* text (minus the …, but never mind that); secondly, I want to be able to search only the visible text. More generally (and less org specific), how do I restrict commands to the visible parts of the buffer? TIA -- Florian Beck
Re: [O] Input on organization of files for multiple projects?

I now have bigger projects that are more coherent and on-going vs. just supporting other people's projects and noting what I contributed and test results. I find more often that I used C-a s to search for something and end up in a file a couple months back with some open todo items that I need to take care of. But then I run across and update or new data... and I find myself debating about whether to add it to 2011-05May.org or create a new timestamp for it in 2011-07Jul.org. So, I'm in the mood for input and suggestions. I've read a lot of the org tutorials (norang in particular), but not a lot quite put the whole picture out there -- how many files, how are they organized, etc. A lot of people describe having files per activity (writing, chores, research), but I'm in the same job, but contributing to perhaps 5 or so main projects as well as my ideas/brainstorming stuff (I work in RD engineering/product development). I'm hoping to hear some input about big picture structuring, keeping track of year+ long projects, todo flows, if files have ever gotten too big (a fear of mine), if and how you archive, etc. I've thought of going to a structure with proj1.org, proj2.org, etc. and then archiving into an archive_.org with main headings for each project as I finish todos or as things get old. Or maybe I won't need to. Maybe an org file can survive an entire project and just get archived for reference when I'm done working on it. I'll probably still need some kind of odds and ends file for things that don't belong to a specific project. Hi John, I've been using org-mode for 5+ years now and I'm still using the same structuring for tasks and notes that I originally set up. Wow, seems like it's really working well, then! I have a miscellaneous todo.org that I dump miscellaneous non-project tasks into. Out of curiosity, are these just loose todos (no headlines or anything)? Maybe I'm a digitial neat freak, but having long lists like that without organization just bugs me. Or do you access almost all todos via agenda and so it doesn't really matter? Diary stuff goes in diary.org (i d in the agenda) and anything that should be grouped together (for some definition of a group) lives in a separate org file. I archive old entries from X.org to X.org_archive monthly. Good to know. I now dump org files into directories and the directories contribute to org-agenda-files (so new files just show up as the are created), and I can add/drop entire directories of org files from my agenda easily. I must have missed that directories work. Very cool and saves me having to add them manually all the time! This is great. This has the advantage that I'm free to split or consolidate org files anytime I want - the agenda will still find the entries as long as they are in directories that contribute to the agenda. If you have 5 main projects that are unrelated I'd probably have one org file for each project and group stuff in there in whatever order makes sense to you. I tend to keep project notes in project files. When notes for a project are generally useful I'll split that into a notes-only org-file by itself and publish the results to HTML. I re-read your setup page on norang.ca, and it looks like it's actually a bit updated since I saw it last. I think I'll move in the project file direction and try to implement capture as well (haven't been using that at all). I'm still a little hazy on how this will all pan out, as I have really liked my journal method of documenting what I work on in terms of it making sense (just write what I did under a headline timestamped with today's date -- simple). The on-going projects thing was the main irk I've had. It just *doesn't* make sense to update data or info on a headline from 2 months ago when new information comes up. But I don't want to split the data, either. I've done that before and linked between different file headlines for ongoing data collection and it's a hassle to follow all those links around to compare data that should be in one place. In your block agenda view, how do you get the line separating sections? Mine just pile on top of each other. Thanks for the input! John HTH, -- Bernt
