Re: [O] org-capture: keeping window visible during date entry
On Thu, Jun 14 2012, Christoph Groth wrote: Hello, I recently switched from remember to org's new capture facility which seems to work fine. However, an issue I already had with remember is still bothering me, perhaps someone knows a good solution: I often call org-capture from within a buffer containing some relevant context, for example an e-mail message displayed by gnus. The emacs window created by org-capture that allows to choose a template is created below the two Gnus windows showing the group and the message. My org-capture templates require entering a date. During the subsequent date entry, the gnus windows are not visible anymore (I only see the nascent buffer with the entry to be captured and a window showing the emacs calendar). This is impractical, because the e-mail message often contains the very date I would like to enter. How to ensure that the buffer which was active when org-capture was executed remains visible during date entry? Thanks, Christoph I've had the same annoyance. The attached patch is *not* a real solution to the problem, as it still produces some weird windowing, and I have no idea if it will wreck other uses of capture, but it does preserve gnus windows so you can see the information you're trying to capture.

[O] Add the capture feature %(sexp) to org-feed
Hi all I am almost done with adding the capture feature %(sexp) to org-feed.el. Because for this I would like to use org-capture-escaped-% from org-capture.el in org-feed.el I renamed this function to org-template-escaped-% and call it in org-feed.el. The only thing what is missing is that unless I do some manual evaluations before, there is still Symbol's function definition is void: org-template-escaped-%. For this I would like to ask for some design and implementation guidance, if available also where I should read in the elisp reference manual or wherever. Michael
[O] Cannot use #+call correctly with babel
Hello everyone,
I cannot understand the way to use #+name and #+call with babel.
All the mixes on headers I tried have been failures.
I just want something like :
* Hello Word in C++
Here is the source code :
#+call: cpp_hello_world [:exports code]
and here is the result :
#+call: cpp_hello_world [:results output :exports results]
gives me
* Hello Word in C++
Here is the source code :
#include iostream
int main()
{
std::cout hello world ! std::endl;
}
and here is the result :
Hello World !
in the resulting HTML, ascii or Latex export.
Here is my example source : http://pastebin.com/63uHDvZH
Does anyone see why I cannot have the output of the code and the results
in the last sections ?
Thanks :)

* Sample Hampton zaphod4...@aol.com wrote: Users, Feeling like Tron 1982 :-) What do you use to capture when away from orgmode (in the car, on the subway) and what system do you use to migrate those captures into orgmode? Right now I just use a notebook and a pen--and it works fairly well--but moving from notebook to org is certainly a pain, and I am sure I am losing information. I am using Mobile-Org on my Android phone. And I do use it for input only. I love the share with.../Mobile Org-feature that lets me easily share web pages, RSS feed entries, and such. Although plain text todos I prefer to write on my hipster PDA[1] which consists of a folded paper and a space pen. It is just faster than grabbing the phone, beat the lock screen, start up Mobile Org, hit the new task-button, hit the entry line to start up the keyboard, and then ... what was it I wanted to write down again? What do you use? And if you use mobileorg, then how well does it work? For sharing something which is already written, I love it. For having stuff from my desktop Org on the road I've had troubles: I do have /way/ too much stuff on my desktop to blindly add everything to Org Mobile. And I could not find the time to get a setup that exports only stuff I need such as contacts, current errands, ... yet. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hipster_PDA -- Karl Voit
Re: [O] Org-mode as a Quantified Self platform

And it seems to me an almost perfect match. -- Sidemark: double-dash followed by a space will be interpreted as the start of your signature. At least in my newsreader (ML-Gmane) your posts consists of /awful/ long signatures :-) Has anyone done something like this? I did not /plan/ my QS/Org-mode setup thoroughly (yet): I am using habits to track some things that re-appear within five weeks or less. For tracking events, I am using todos that repeat every 20 years or so. Those todos I mark as done whenever an event occurs.

I will definitely look into that as well. I do not have anything useful for analyzing or visualizing Org-mode data yet. If org-collector.el does not turn out to be the solution, I plan to write my own Org-mode parser in Python. My brain is not «compatible» with LISP, I'm afraid. When I've got the time stamps in Python, I can do whatever I like. I'd love to see an Android app for quick input. Mobile Org for Android has to much overhead for this purpose. I want to have an app that I can start and touch one single button when I want to log a timestamp of an event. Optionally it should ask me for a text/number/amount. It'd be perfect when this QS-app is providing widgets so that I can put such «event XY happened»-icons on the main screen to be able to quickly log any event. One button type for each event I want to capture. I played around with Android apps that try to log my position using WiFi network, cell triangulation, or GPS. They all had their issues. Bad luck so far. (LifeLogger, GPSLogger, ...) -- On that note, what's the best way to get data out of org-habit/headlines and into something a bit more usable like csv?

I do like Memacs a *lot*. Once you have set up Memacs, it runs by its own and provides a diary that writes itself :-) Every Memacs-user reported very positive aspects she/he did not think of this before so far.

[O] [GSoC] org-merge-driver weekly update
Hi everyone, small weekly update; I'm almost finished creating the parser. Because of the nature of org mode grammar, the files are being parsed with regexs and (f)lex. Because Orgmode files can be written in any character encoding supported in Emacs, I am looking into using libiconv to support as many file encodings as possible. Sincerely, Andrew Young
