Re: [O] Recursive org-agenda-files
My understanding is that you want a file that gets moved into the
active directory to be automatically included in the agenda?
>From worg:
You can simply include the directory (as one of the items) in the
value of the variable org-agenda-files:
(setq org-agenda-files '("/my/special/path/org/active/"))
There is another way of accomplishing the same end:
(setq org-agenda-files (file-expand-wildcards
"/my/special/path/org/active/*.org"))
The other files/directories could be in the extended text search if
needed but not part of the automatic agenda. Just my two cents. Not
that playing with agenda hooks might have some advantages.

It's great. I thought so too. I'd like to record creation in the logbook drawer when I capture a TODO and have adjusted my templates to do so. They just include the logbook drawer literally, like so "* TODO %? :LOGBOOK: - State \"TODO\" from \"\" %U :END: %a %i" I thought that org-treat-insert-todo-heading-as-state-change would be able to create the drawer for me but no such luck.

[O] [ANN] Org Mode parser v0.0.1 for NodeJs
Hi all, I have just published my org-mode parser for the node-js javascript based server: http://gioorgi.com/org-mode-parser/ It is a Javascript parser for the Emacs Org-mode file format. I use org-mode as a database for some programs (like games) where I need to mix meta information to a bunch of long textual data. I wrote it because I was unable to find an implementation for my needs. I like too much org-mode to let nodejs without a parser, and as expected the simple org-mode format was easy to parse. I started from the Charles Cave's OrgNode python parser, but I need to modify it a lot because of JavaScript different nature.

Re: [O] [OT] How to save and restore window and frame layout and position of windows on monitor - session management
> Rainer M Krug writes: > I am already using desktop-save, but I have the feeling that it sometimes > does not work. Just to note (and yes, this is very OT, so I won't say more): WorkgroupsForWindows solves a different problem than desktop-save. In fact, there are three aspects to the problem, best addressed by three different packages: session.el -- Remembers: - the values of global variables (like history rings) - where point and mark were in re-opened files - gives you a C-x C-/ binding: pop to last change workgroups.el -- Remembers: - one or more window configurations per-frame - these can be saved and reloaded - does *not* reload files, or rerun apps, to populate those windows - lets you have a "base" and "active" state for each named configuration, making it easy to revert back to the base state for each desktop.el -- Remembers: - What files were open, and which apps were running, and tries to re-open and re-run them so that Emacs looks just like it did when you exited. I use the first two, and I've used the third, but I find that I prefer beginning with a fresh start each time I run Emacs, rather than seeing again all the hundreds of files I had open yesterday.

It always strikes me as odd that `f' in agenda view moves the item forward by a day even if that leaves it still in the past. Typically if I have an overdue item, I just want to schedule it for today or a certain number of days in the future, and as it stands it's even a bit non-obvious when I've finally bumped it up to today if it's a few days old.

Re: [O] Org-special-blogs does not make well-formed xhtml
Hi, Carsten, thanks. Jambunathan's probably right, though, that this fix (while necessary) is incomplete. Sorry, I hadn't thought it through. Now, when the first paragraph of a special block comes right after the #+BEGIN_WHATEVER line, it will just come as the first text node of the block, and will not be wrapped in a element. So among other things, any special CSS styling for s will not be applied to it. It's not a big deal -- if you need a (and often you really don't) the workaround is as simple as leaving an empty line between #+BEGIN_WHATEVER and the first paragraph. But I guess it would be more consistent/expected/helpful behavior for special-blocks to start a new paragraph -- this time *after* the opening tag and not around it!

Re: [O] [Orgmode] Extending paste to auto-archive a copied image
*bump* I think this would be an awesome feature. Some of us use highly-graphic OSes such as OSX and Windows (or maybe Linux with Gnome), and being able to interact with the desktop is a great feature. Imagine being able to drag and drop a file directly to emacs and delegate the attachment to org, besides, optionally, an icon could be shown (not really needed). Copying and pasting an image would also be nice. Right now, I can't do this. I can drag and drop files but emacs will just insert the contents of the file inline. There must be a way to tell emacs to run a custom piece of elisp code with the basic event information gathered from the paste/drag and drop... or there isn't? Cheers, - Marcelo.

[O] embed an iframe behind a presentation?
Hi everyone, I don't think this is really an org question, but, well, here I am and I hope someone can help. I use org-html5presentation.el (this one, I'm pretty sure: https://github.com/twada/org-html5presentation.el) to generate html5 presentations from org outlines; I do this for my lecture notes, and the exported files look like this: http://www.mercey.org/03-public-sphere.html I thought it might be fun to embed a twitter feed in the slide background, so students can ask questions or have conversations about what we're doing while I talk. I had thought I'd just insert an iframe containing a twitter widget into the background somewhere. Unfortunately, I actually don't understand how these presentations are really produced, or how I would insert code into the background. Most of the formatting seems to be done in css, and the dynamic movements of the slides is triggered I guess somehow by javascript; but this is all html5 black magic to me. I'm not sure how I would, effectively, change the 'template' for the presentation to one that includes the appropriate iframe. Like I say, I'm not entirely sure this is an org question, but I'd still love some guidance if folks cna provide it. Thanks as always, Matt

Can't do it with org-export-icalendar-combine-agenda-files as it stands, but
if you look at the code, all it does is:
,
| (defun org-export-icalendar-combine-agenda-files ()
| "Export all files in `org-agenda-files' to a single combined iCalendar file.
| The file is stored under the name `org-combined-agenda-icalendar-file'."
| (interactive)
| (apply 'org-export-icalendar t (org-agenda-files t)))
`
so it just applies org-export-icalendar to the list of file that
org-agenda-files
returns. All you have to do is massage that list a bit:
(defun mdm/org-export-icalendar-combine-agenda-files-with-exclusions ()
(interactive)
(apply 'org-export-icalendar t
(mdm/exclude '("~/org/foo.org" "~/org/bar.org") (org-agenda-files
t
(defun mdm/exclude (items lst)
(if (null lst)
lst
(if (member (car lst) items)
(mdm/exclude items (cdr lst))
(cons (car lst) (mdm/exclude items (cdr lst))
Mostly untested.

[O] Bug: org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift shifts CREATED property
Hi! When an entry got processed by org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift, its :CREATED: property gets shifted too: #+begin_example * <2011-10-04 Tue> test SCHEDULED: <2011-10-05 Wed> :PROPERTIES: :CREATED: <2011-10-04 Tue 17:27> :END: * <2011-10-11 Tue> test SCHEDULED: <2011-10-12 Wed> :PROPERTIES: :CREATED: <2011-10-11 Tue 17:27> :END: #+end_example Although this *might* be on purpose, I strongly argue to stop this behaviour because of: * the entry is not really created in the future. It is created either at the original :CREATED: timestamp _or_ it is created at the timestamp when org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift is executed. * the user gets heavily irritated when the generated entries keep popping up on future days. I suggest that at least for :CREATED: properties, the time stamp does not get changed by org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift. -- Karl Voit

[O] Feature request: Include org-tbl in exported latex.
Hi, it would be cool if the latex exporting of a org-table would include the table in orgtbl format in a comment, in the way described here: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/A-LaTeX-example.html This fits well with the workflow of first drafting the paper in org-mode, then exporting it to tex and finnishing it there. If the exporter kept the table as desribed above, one could still harvest some orgtbl power in the finnishing stage. It does not need to be the default action, but an option of it would be nice. -Erik Parmann

Bad for Emacs/Orgmode usability but fine with me so far. So is this really the case? >>> You may also try >>> M-x debug-on-entry RET ding RET >>> Look at the backtrace and see whether you can get some clues. >> >> Sorry, no clue. >> >>> Works best if your orgmode is not compiled >> >> When I have compiled Orgmode, should I delete all *.elc files? > > May be the debug-on-entry is the wrong strategy for the problem at > hand.

I have no general method. However, you can do this: 1. On the "Options" menu, switch "Enter debug on error" on. 2. Run your agenda to hit the error. A buffer with the backtrace pops open. 3. Press e (current-buffer) RET to learn about the buffer where this happens 4. Press e pos RET to learn about the position of the offending time stamp. 5. Press `q' to leave the backtrace buffer, then switch to the buffer you learned about and find the position you just learned about. THis should be the bad timestamp.

If you visit the org file and do M-x occur RET [<[]19[0-7][0-9] RET you are likely to find all entries in the 1900 and 1979 range. It is not my intention to provide you with a outright solution but only to give sufficient hints so that you make progress. >> You may also try >> M-x debug-on-entry RET ding RET >> Look at the backtrace and see whether you can get some clues. > > Sorry, no clue. > >> Works best if your orgmode is not compiled > > When I have compiled Orgmode, should I delete all *.elc files? May be the debug-on-entry is the wrong strategy for the problem at hand. You may disregard my suggestion. --

I tried this, but as far as I can tell it won't automatically see new files or directories as they are added, so I have to re-evaluate te setq every time I add new projects or files. Or am I wrong?
