Re: [O] Support for a and p suffix for morning/afternoon scheduling

Today it occured to me the m is unnecessary, because a and p already gives the necessary info. Could we also support 8a and 9p format for times like 8am and 9pm, so that the m does not have to be typed when scheduling? It's unambiguous, this form is not used for other things AFAIK, so we could easily support this shorter form too. Here is a pedantic excursion through the ambiguity of time... 12a and 12p are ambiguous, as are 12am and 12pm. Which is noon, and which is midnight? Standards differ. I generally favor, in English, the unambiguous use of noon and midnight, or 12 noon and 12 midnight. Unfortunately those terms do not fit into a scenario of abbreviation. Furthermore, midnight itself is ambiguous unless rendered as or 2400. Does midnight Thursday refer to the start of Thursday, or to its end? See this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight One might suggest 12n for noon and 12m for midnight, but this conflicts madly with prior use of abbreviations borrowed from Latin, where 12m is meridies (noon) and 12n is noctis (midnight). 12m, noon, is the origin of the m in am and pm : ante meridiem, post meridiem, for before noon and after noon. We probably have little choice but to adopt the obvious standard, look at your digital clock, in which (contrary to some published standards) 12:00 AM is midnight and 12:00 PM is noon.

Re: [O] Smart quotes
Hello, Mark E. Shoulson m...@kli.org writes: Hm. I like the idea, but it raises some questions for me. It would be particularly good if this could share code/custom variables with the pieces of the (new) exporter that make smart quotes on export. That way we could be sure that what it looks like onscreen would also be what it looked like when exported. I could be interesting, but keep in mind that no matter how smart your quotes are, they will fail in some situations. So, it will have to be optional for export, independently on their in-buffer status. The OPTIONS keyword may be used, with q:t and q:nil items. Looking at contrib/lisp/org-e-latex.el at an upcoming exporter for such things, I see a variable org-e-latex-quotes, which has nice language-aware parts... but misses an important point. Each language gets to define one regexp for opening quotes, one for closing quotes, and one for single quotes. But don't we want to talk about (at least) two levels of quotes, see your own reference[fn:1]? Probably. But that's going to be somewhat harder. Single quotes would be for inner, second-level quotes (if we're using double straight quotes according to (American) English usage, I would guess we'd be using single straight quotes the same way). That works okay for English, where a single apostrophe not part of a grouping construct is going to be interpreted as a close single quote and look right for an apostrophe. The regexp may be able to tell level 1 from level 2 quotes. It might not work so good in French where apostrophes are also used, There are no spaces around apostrophes, so they shouldn't be caught by the regexp. but also single guillemets for inner-level quotes. What are single guillemets? I don't think there is such thing in French. Should/can we consider extending this for the new exporters? I think it would be a good addition to the export mechanism, if you want to give it a try. (I'm looking forward to HTML and ODT exporters that can do smart quotes; the straight quotes are really the main jarring things about using Org as a lightweight markup and exporting into something fancier) A function, provided in org-export, could help changing dumb quotes into smart quotes in plain text. Then, it would be easier for back-ends to provide the feature, if they wanted to. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou

Re: [O] Smart quotes
I could be interesting, but keep in mind that no matter how smart your quotes are, they will fail in some situations. So, it will have to be optional for export, independently on their in-buffer status. The OPTIONS keyword may be used, with q:t and q:nil items. I don't see an entry for this in `org-export-options-alist'. So I believe you are soliciting opinion on a fresh addition. (I'm looking forward to HTML and ODT exporters that can do smart quotes; the straight quotes are really the main jarring things about using Org as a lightweight markup and exporting into something fancier) A function, provided in org-export, could help changing dumb quotes into smart quotes in plain text. Then, it would be easier for back-ends to provide the feature, if they wanted to. I can use it, if made available. I think, It will be help if we force all exporters to produce utf-8 files. --

[O] Escaping links while doing an org-publish to html
Hi, I have been using org-mode for a year now and love it. I just started experimenting with org-publish and am trying to use org-mode with octopress as described here http://jaderholm.com/blog/blogging-with-org-mode-and-octopress When I export an org file using org-publish, I want to export/convert everything normally, but want to escape hyperlink conversion so that the octopress plugins can process them. I found that whenever I have text like http://something.somewhere/ it is automatically converted to a hyperlink or an image link (if it ends with an image extension) Is there a way to do prevent org-mode from setting up A-links or IMG-links? I dont' need to be selective. It's ok if all the links in a file are not converted. Thanks, c.b.

As I understand it, this is what the OP is after: Problem: doesn't like the look of multiple *s for headline; prefers the look of hidestars-mode. Furthermore, hidestars isn't good enough, because Enda wants the file *really to be like that*, without the stars there at all, so that it still looks good when being edited in vi or something. It needs to look like hidestars *all the time*, even outside of org, to avoid seeing the s. OP's requested fix: change the syntax so that a line which begins with N spaces followed by a star and then more spaces after that acts as if the N spaces at the beginning were stars. That is, spacespace*space at the start of the line should be a third-level headline, as if it started with ***. OP, please let me know if I'm stating your position correctly. Problem with requested fix: In addition to being a pretty major change to start with, it also already conflicts with established usage. A line that starts with spaces and then a star-space is considered an item in a plain list. Using *s for plain lists is discouraged, because of the potential confusion with headlines if there are no spaces before it, but it is permitted (and if it could have been dropped it would have been already). So, no, this isn't going to happen. I _guess_ one could try defining something like a NO-BREAK-SPACE character to behave like a star at the beginning of the line when it comes to determining headlines, so you basically have a character that *looks* blank you can use for the non-final stars, but that would also be a pretty enormous change and I don't see it looking like a good move either. I hope that accurately portrays the request (and responses thereto). ~mark

It would be particularly good if this could share code/custom variables with the pieces of the (new) exporter that make smart quotes on export. That way we could be sure that what it looks like onscreen would also be what it looked like when exported. I could be interesting, but keep in mind that no matter how smart your quotes are, they will fail in some situations. So, it will have to be optional for export, independently on their in-buffer status. The OPTIONS keyword may be used, with q:t and q:nil items. Smart quotes absolutely have to be optional, and probably disabled by default. They're going to fail sometimes, so they should only be there when you ask for them. Smart-quotes-for-export and smart-quotes-onscreen need to be settable independently, yes. Smart-quotes-for-export needs to be settable per-file/per-buffer, with OPTIONS or something. Smart-quotes-onscreen doesn't have to be buffer-local, though it might be a good idea. Using q:t or maybe :t in options seems perfectly good for setting exporting smart quotes. It still would be good if onscreen and export could share code. Looking at contrib/lisp/org-e-latex.el at an upcoming exporter for such things, I see a variable org-e-latex-quotes, which has nice language-aware parts... but misses an important point. Each language gets to define one regexp for opening quotes, one for closing quotes, and one for single quotes. But don't we want to talk about (at least) two levels of quotes, see your own reference[fn:1]? Probably. But that's going to be somewhat harder. Single quotes would be for inner, second-level quotes (if we're using double straight quotes according to (American) English usage, I would guess we'd be using single straight quotes the same way). That works okay for English, where a single apostrophe not part of a grouping construct is going to be interpreted as a close single quote and look right for an apostrophe. The regexp may be able to tell level 1 from level 2 quotes. Do you mean that the author would use the same characters for both first and second level quotes, and the regexp would be smart enough to distinguish which level each was at? I don't think that's possible, and you probably don't either. What I meant, and you probably did as well, was that if we use apostrophes for second-level quotes, a regexp can be smart enough to tell the difference between a second-level quote and a non-quote apostrophe It might not work so good in French where apostrophes are also used, There are no spaces around apostrophes, so they shouldn't be caught by the regexp. which is what you say here. They *should* be caught by a regexp, but not the same one; they need to be smartified also, just not necessarily treated the same as second-level quotes. but also single guillemets for inner-level quotes. What are single guillemets? I don't think there is such thing in French. You're right; the Wikipedia page says that French uses quote-marks or the same double-chevrons for inner quotes. I thought it used \lsaquo and \rsaquo, « like ‹ this › ». Looks like it does in Swiss typography for various languages, according to the page. Danish also uses the single-chevrons (pointing the other direction), and Azerbaijani and Basque, etc... Whatever. What I meant was, if people are going to be writing using straight ascii quotes and expect them to be changed into language-appropriate quotes, they're going to want something like this is a 'quote', and that's all you need to know. becoming, for instance «this is a ‹quote›, and that’s all you need to know.» that is, it should be possible to use the single quotes for inner quotes, which would mean more than just opening/closing/single in the org-e-latex-quotes (and analogous variables in other exporters). Being able to determine when you need ‹› and when ’ might be a little uncertain, but it isn't hard to make a regexp that can make a decent guess at it. Should/can we consider extending this for the new exporters? I think it would be a good addition to the export mechanism, if you want to give it a try. I'd love to get org more export-friendly. I'll see what I can understand of the (new) export code. (I'm looking forward to HTML and ODT exporters that can do smart quotes; the straight quotes are really the main jarring things about using Org as a lightweight markup and exporting into something fancier) A function, provided in org-export, could help changing dumb quotes into smart quotes in plain text. Then, it would be easier for back-ends to provide the feature, if they wanted to. That sounds like a possibility, might make for good generic handling, only one bit of code to treat everything consistently... yeah, I didn't like the idea at first, I'm starting to like it more.

However, sometime in the last couple of weeks, I did a git pull on the master branch (and I redid the same today) and noticed that my recurring tasks are broken. E.g. I have a task ** TODO Pay Creditcard bill DEADLINE: 2012-05-15 Tue +1m -7d and when I marked it done, it changed state to DONE ** DONE Pay Creditcard bill CLOSED: [2012-05-18 Fri 22:13] DEADLINE: 2012-05-15 Tue +1m -7d I have been trying to figure out what went wrong, but am clueless. Any pointers on what might be wrong, would be appreaciated. I don't use this much, but have been contemplating it and thus the various org-mode pages on repeating tasks are somewhat fresh in my head. Here was my initial thought: - The org-mode manual itself on repeated tasks does not mention that kind of repeating task syntax --- http://orgmode.org/manual/Repeated-tasks.html#Repeated-tasks --- Only +1, ++1, and .+1 are discussed - The /org-habit/ page, on the other hand, does mention such syntax (well, kind of) --- http://orgmode.org/manual/Tracking-your-habits.html --- Note that this page uses .+2d/4d syntax Anyway, I very likely missed something, but I can't find the specific syntax you're looking for in the manual sections above. If the functionality of org-habit /does/ do what you want, perhaps you could switch to that? If you use this syntax widely, that could be a pain. Let me know what you think? Also, please point to the documentation illustrating the +1m -7d usage. I'd like to see it as well as I'm curious about the various time stamp options. DEADLINE: 2012-05-15 Tue -7d is a standard deadline with a 7 day warning period as defined in section 8.3 Deadlines and scheduling. DEADLINE: 2012-05-15 Tue +1m -7d This just adds a monthly repeater to the syntax and is perfectly legal syntax AFAIK. This entry repeats normally for me.
