[O] Personal wiki
Maybe someone else is interested in my "personal wiki" I implemented on top of org-mode. It basically adds three things to plain org-mode * Narrowing Makes only current section[*] visible and thus avoids any distraction by unrelated things. * Automatic links of all text matching a section name. Much like org-wikinodes, but without camel case. * Navigation history When visiting different sections in the same file history is recorded allowing navigation "back" to previous section. Find the el file attached, and also an example file. What do you think?

[O] Org Mobile Writing App (a la Epistle/Paragraft)
I must confess that I've fallen onto the Tablet bandwagon, and despite the alure of having a more functional mobile-org,I went for an android tablet (to match the phone, and because I'm not a mac user.) Largely I think it's great, and while I've got a mobile-org setup that I like well enough, I found myself saying "wouldn't it rock, if..." a few times and I just wanted to float the idea with you. While I think mobile-org is a great concept for making all of the task planning and organization features of org more accessible on the go, it's not quite so good for taking notes and doing the kind of writing that I spend most of my waking hours doing these days. I've been using a really delightful little app called [Epistle](http://kooklab.com/epistle.html) which renders markdown text (a fetish of mine that predates org-mode,) that works with dropbox. I think I learned about this from someone on the list. I suspect it's a lot like Paragraft for those of you on the otherside. I've created a little script that links all of my org-files into a place where Epistle can see them in dropbox (http://tychoish.com/code/epistle-linker/), and while the rendering doesn't work, it is nice to be able to read and edit these files. I've also, as an aside created some procmail and shell glue that takes emails and inserts them into an org-file so that I can capture stuff on the go using the email program. That's here: http://tychoish.com/code/org-mail/ Wouldn't it be nice to have something like Epistle for org-mode? It might just render org-mode text to HTML, and frankly that would be enough for me. Org-indent equivalent, syntax highlighting, and collapsing trees (probably in that order) might be nice as well, but I think the key is simple and quick... I'm not a developer, so I can't promise to start making an app this instant if there's interest, but if anyone's bored and thinks this might be a good idea (or knows of something that might work better for this.) I'd love to hear about it. Cheers, Sam -- tycho(ish) @ ga...@tychoish.com http://tychoish.com/ "don't get it right, get it written" -- james thurber pgpGZmGiRaDIK.pgp Description: PGP signature
[O] Question about org-search-view and org-occur-in-agenda-files
Hi Orgers, I know that I can use `org-search-view' or `org-occur-in-agenda-files' from the agenda to search for some string on all my agenda files. And I can customise `org-agenda-text-search-extra-files' to include extra text files. These search functions are quite powerful in general, so I was wondering if these functions can be used to do a search restricted to say a list of files or to org files within a directory. If I could wrap these in my own functions, even that would be amazingly helpful. To illustrate a use case, I recently switched research projects[1]. I keep all my files related to the OLDPROJ under ~/org/OLDPROJ/ and all my files related to the NEWPROJ under ~/org/NEWPROJ/[2]. Now when I perform a text search I want to include only the NEWPROJ along with my agenda files (located in ~/org/). Now I would like to have an interface (either through the agenda menu or through some interactively called function) to perform a search _only_ on the OLDPROJ files when necessary. Is that possible? Any hints as to how I can achieve this would be amazingly helpful. Thanks. :) Footnotes: [1] I am using the word project rather loosely to describe a super-project with several sub-projects which are rather significant by themselves. [2] These project directories have their own structure based on sub-projects and other needs. -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.

As an alternative to overlays used by "C-c }" on a table to display the coordinate grid, I would suggest the attached patch that displays the coordinates in the table editor "C-c `" like this: #+begin_src org # # Edit field @2$3 and finish with C-c C-c # 123 #+end_src It also supports the org-table-follow-field-mode "C-u C-u C-c `" added by Carsten two months ago: http://orgmode.org/w/org-mode.git/commitdiff/bffdfeb7fcd6c094d44e754ace7ce28fab81f2ff Michael 0001-Table-editor-Display-coordinates-of-current-field.patch Description: Binary data

How can I refer to an ID in another Org-mode file (withing the same folder)? ,[ file:foo.org ] | * This is interesting | :PROPERTIES: | :ID: interesting | :END: ` ,[ file:bar.org ] | I would like you to point to id:foo.org#interesting ` The link like this does not (yet) work.

Hi all
It seems to me that there is an inconsistency with the default
PRIORITY in searches and custom agenda blocks of types like "tags" or
"tags-todo".
Assume org-default-priority B and an agenda file
#+begin_src org
,* TODO [#C] low prio
,* TODO default prio
,* TODO [#A] high prio
#+end_src
When org-agenda-custom-commands contains
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
("x" "test"
((tags-todo
"PRIORITY<=\"C\"")))
#+end_src
the agenda block looks like this:
TODO [#A] high prio
TODO default prio
TODO [#C] low prio
This is like expected: The item without PRIORITY gets the default B
for sorting from org-get-priority called in org-scan-tags.
When org-agenda-custom-commands contains
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
("x" "test"
((tags-todo
"PRIORITY=\"B\"")))
#+end_src
the agenda block is empty. I expected that the item without PRIORITY
matches and is shown because I expect it to get the default B also
when matching. But this is not the case for org-cached-entry-get
called in org-scan-tags at "(eval matching)".
Even worse: The item without PRIORITY is shown with "PRIORITY<\"B\"".
During debugging it seemed to me that this is simply because the item
gets the PRIORITY " " when matching.
Now I am not sure whether I would be able to provide a patch and how
this should be solved: Only in org-scan-tags or better in
org-entry-properties and/or friends like org-entry-get,
org-cached-entry-get and maybe more?
