By this I mean, that there are often sequences of tasks that I know the time required to complete and when things are due. These tasks may repeat (usually do). It would be awful helpful to me, but I would guess few others, as a search didn't find much, for there to be some annotation like this (example is farcical, notation is notional) * Go on date DEADLINE: 2014-12-25 ** Ask Girl #-3w# ** Wash Hair #-2w# ** Make Money #-1w2d# ** Get in Car #-0d# ** Call her back #+1w# that in the agenda view would show as a sequence of tasks with the following dates Go on date 2014-12-25 Ask Girl 2014-12-04 Wash Hair 2014-12-11 Make Money 2014-12-16 Get in Car 2014-12-25 Call her back 2015-01-01 I have a python function that can take a stripped down org file and places an active date after each #block# (or inactive after #[block]#), that I hacked up today to see if it would really be as useful as I thought, but I keep thinking that someone somewhere must have scratched this itch elsewhere, and having to partially parse org in python and modify the text rather than having my agenda smart enough to figure it out gives me pause... If nobody have better ideas, are the block delimiters I'm using going to conflict with some other feature in org that I'm just not using yet? The main functuionality I'm stumbling toward is having an easily moveable end date (so replacing the block with absolute dates is a nono). Thanks for your attention, Jeffrey McBeth I think like that as well. I know when some _thing_ has to be done. Then I start thinking of all the support items in relative terms to the main one. You should add this to org mode, if able. It would be a nice addition... Dave The relative deadline part should be implemented, I agree. I also like the collection of intermediate tasks. Does Emacs have a name for that? Because I used to call that a constellation of deadlines, and if we have the relative timestamps, the constellation would be easy to implement on the fly. This addresses Jeffrey's original intention, you see, if I explain. If I have an appointment at 4pm and I know it is a 40m drive AND I may need to get dressed formally (that takes 30m), then I really can't tell the Org system Notify me at 4pm. Instead, I *need* to have it say, Get me driving by 320pm, and if I need to dress up, then get that started by 250pm. Really, for me, the appointment at 4 starts much earlier. Also, keep track of the fact that I will probably come right back, so if the appointment ends at 530, then I won't get back until 610pm. Now if Jeffrey wants to schedule something like this BUT needs to take into account that he already has a 6pm appointment, then his request for an easily movable end is reasonable. When he is setting up the appointment, Org needs to tell him, as soon as possible, that there is a conflict, and so when they suggest 330pm instead of 4pm? he can try that. Tom Yup, exactly what I would like. I hate modern appointment calendars, as they have no means of accomplishing this... Dave I also think I would use such feature. -- Konubinix GPG Key: 7439106A Fingerprint: 5993 BE7A DA65 E2D9 06CE 5C36 75D2 3CED 7439 106A signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Re: [O] [RFC] Display most recent log item in Agenda
Eric Abrahamsen e...@ericabrahamsen.net writes: I started with this approach for two reasons: 1) I thought collecting the list items would be simpler, and as it became more and more complicated, I didn't rethink the approach, and 2) collecting all the items is the actual feature I was after (for future hackage), and the agenda display was just a nice bonus. OK. I'd like to keep the collection routine (even just for myself, if it's not necessary for core), but you're right, the most-recent note display could be done differently. Collecting is fine, but instead of using `org-log-beginning', I suggest to factor out parts you need (e.g. find the log drawer, if any). Note that if `org-log-into-drawer' is nil, you can only find all notes heuristically (they might be scattered across the section). In this case, finding the last note is safer. Better, you could store the last note as a text property on the headline and skip altogether the parsing phase. When would the storing happen? As the agenda was being built? When the storing is done, i.e. after calling `org-store-log-note'. However, you would need persistent data to save log notes across sessions. So it isn't a good idea after all. Regards,
[O] Something wrong with the src_python babel execution
Hi,
I'm using GNU Emacs 24.4.4 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0, Carbon Version
157 AppKit 1265.21) with Org-mode version 8.2.10
(8.2.10-29-g89a0ac-elpaplus).
Example file:
--8---cut here---start-8---
#+BEGIN_SRC python :session test :exports none
a = 0.55
#+END_SRC
The result is src_python[:session test :results raw]{'${:.1f}$'.format(a)}.
--8---cut here---end---8---
This used to execute without any problem. Now the related latex export is:
--8---cut here---start-8---
The result is
\$'.format(a)\}.
--8---cut here---end---8---
And there are the outputs in the *test* session:
--8---cut here---start-8---
'${:.1f
'${:.1f

Re: [O] Is it possible to use org-babel to deal with bibtex?
Hi Feng, Feng Shu tuma...@gmail.com writes: I want to deal with my bibtex like this, is it possible? I'm not entirely sure what you're asking to do here. Your example looks like you want to store bibliography information in Org, and generate citations using Org syntax. This is possible, and plenty of people do it. See the org-bibtex library (included in the main Org distribution) for storing your bibliographic data in Org trees; see the ox-bibtex library (in contrib) for one way of generating citations using Org syntax. Here's my setup (which uses org-bibtex but not ox-bibtex): http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/86033/ You might also look into John Kitchin's org-ref library: https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/org/org-ref.org None of these options involve Babel, though; I'm not sure if you specifically wanted a Babel-based solution. Is there something more specific you're trying to do? Best, Richard

[O] Exporting LaTeX fragments equations Org-mode 8.2.10
Hello,
Since I updated to Org-mode version 8.2.10, I am having trouble exporting
equation in latex properly. Some \ are inserted in the tex verion.
For example:
\begin{equation} \label{eqn:Lpar}
Lpar_{k}=\frac{hb_{k}}{slope}
\end{equation}
Becomes:
\begin{equation} \label{eqn:Lpar}
Lpar$_{\text{k}}$=\frac\{hb$_{\text{k}}$\}\{slope\}
\end{equation}
I tried to force #+OPTIONS: tex:t
which should be the default value but that didn't help.
Any suggestion of what I may be missing?

I think this came up on the list a few days ago. IIRC, the

down to the next line. Does that work?

[O] getting calc-units working in table formulas
I've been playing with calc-units, and it's pretty amazing. See all the units with `calc-view-units-table'. Some calc-units stuff works out the box (maybe have to require calc-units?), I think this should be mentioned in the manual: | distance | time | speed | |--++-| | 3 km | 2.5 hr | 1.2 km / hr | #+TBLFM: @2$3=$1/$2 Who knew it could do that?! Probably everyone but me... It doesn't need the constants.el package, and looks nicer in the input, to boot. calc-units makes a few of its functions available via defmath: | speed| simplified speed | |--+--| | 40km / 2.5hr | 16. km / hr | | | | #+TBLFM: @2$2=usimplify($1) But it's got a lot more tricks. I think unit conversion would be very handy to have, but there's something I'm not getting about using defmath. For instance, this works: | km| ft | |---+-| | 2.5km | 8202.10 | #+TBLFM: $2='(calc-eval (math-convert-units (calc-eval $1 'raw) (calc-eval ft 'raw))); %.2f But this doesn't: #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (defmath uconvert (expr target-units) (math-convert-units expr target-units)) #+END_SRC | km| ft | |---+-| | 2.5km | uconvert(2.5 km ft) | #+TBLFM: $2=uconvert($1 ft) I can't tell if I've written the calcFunc thing wrong, or if it's somehow not getting installed correctly. I've tried several variants, and they mostly all just give me the results above. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Also, once that's figured out, wouldn't it be handy if Org came with a few predefined units-related math functions? It would be a tiny bit of code, for quite a bit more power. At the very least, I'd like to provide a patch to the manual to make the units stuff a little more explicit... Eric
