One possibility is to advise the function org-attach-dir to call org-attach-set-directory (and, optionally, org-attach-set-inherit) if the entry does not already have an ATTACH_DIR property: --8<---cut here---start->8--- (defadvice org-attach-dir (before my-org-attach-set-dir-before-attach activate) "Prompt for attachment directory (thus preempting org-get-id)." (unless (org-entry-get nil "ATTACH_DIR" 'inherit) (org-attach-set-directory))) --8<---cut here---end--->8--- This allows one to enter the name of the directory *before* org attaches the file. This is the way I use org-attach, as I prefer human-readable directories to UUIDs. Best, Matt

[O] how to narrow Clock Total on repeating tasks?
Hi — I use the effort and clocking features of OM to a large degree and am trying to deepen that further. I have run into one problem that I don't know how to apprach. Quite possibly there is an obvious answer in the manual that I've missed and if so, please forgive me. (I have noticed that most of my questions don't, in fact, have such answers though.) I am trying to figure out how to limit the calculation of the clocking total to the latest iteration of a repeating task. The most obvious place where this plays out is in column view. I am working my way through my agenda in column view, estimating efforts or reviewing my effort estimates against real-time clocking. The clock total in this view shows the full total over all iterations of repeating tasks — not helpful for this use case. Am I being clear? (I hate to over-explain something to a group of this calibre.) Any advice on how to change that? — Michael Nonprofit News http://nonprofitnews.org

It's a novel translation (so essentially two very long novels in one file), and there's no perceptible lag in navigation/folding. BUT! It's almost all plain text, very little fontification besides the headlines, and I understand that fontification is one of the major causes of lag. So, dunno if that's helpful, but it's another data point. Eric (Using the Ubuntu version of Emacs, 23.3 I believe, and yesterday's org-mode)

Some 6300 entries, 137k lines. Agenda commands are slow, of course, but otherwise the performance is acceptable. Anything that involves completion is quite slow. Opening ID links is also slower than I would like. Anything that works on the whole buffer can take a long time (cycling from OVERVIEW to CONTENTS takes more than a minute), so try to avoid that. (I keep old notes in that file, so mostly I search or link to entries.)

Hey list, What's the largest orgmode file you have, and what's the performance you get while manipulating/navigating it? Mine is a 5k lines file called reference.org, and I basically keep all kind of notes and attachments there. It's a bit slow to navigate on my Emacs 240.50.1, orgmode 7.4, although still usable.

[O] Something like refile + make destination/subtree?
Would it be possible to specify a custom tree when refiling? I know if a tree exists one can type a bit of it and use tab completion on the existing file trees, but would it be possible to create a tree on the fly? If a Level 1 headline existed, for example, but not the desired Level 2, one could type in "File.org/Level1/Level2" and it would be created for you and the refile snippet would be refiled under it? Would this be useful for anyone else, or does something like it already exist? It seems like a variable might allow for this fairly easily. 'org-refile-create-on-the-fly' or something...

Re: [O] making coloured tables
I have an idea how my feature could be implemented, and it consists of two parts. - introduce a special row, or extend the "/" type used for colgroup and narrowing, to specify hidden (non-export) columns and special tag columns; - in that special row, there are two new special entries, say "T<" and "T>" which specify that the contents of each cell in that column should be exported into the tag of the cell to the left or to the right. This way, the tag can be set from within the table for each relevant cell. The only drawback is that all this is backend-specific, it only works for HTML, not for PDF in the way I've just described.
