[O] Emacs batch and bbdb Issue
Hello, I have cron set up to send me an email with my org calendar each morning as follows: /usr/local/bin/emacs --batch -l ~/.emacs --eval '(org-batch-agenda "a" org-agenda-span (quote day))' It works fine unless Gnus starts running. When that happens, bbdb is taken by Gnus and then the emacs --batch gets stuck because it wants to know if emacs should steal the bbdb file. I use diary in org. I am not sure if there is a way to not use bbdb file and still use diary? Is there a way to make stealing the bbdb file the default for emacs upon start-up? Thanks, Aric -- ~O /\_, ###-\ |_ (*) / (*)

The way I have worked around this is to set the habits to show only for the present day in the agenda. They are then not exported into the diary calendar unless you export the present day.

[O] Excluding habits from Diary?
Hello, I have recently found that I can combine my org-mode calendar/scheduling/todo with the Emacs diary to output to latex via cal-tex.el. This is fantastic, despite a few nagging issues. The main improvement for me would be to repress the introduction of habits into the diary output. I have not been able to accomplish this thus far, and am unsure of how I might go about trying to do so. To integrate org-mode with the diary I simply have the following at the top of my diary: %%(diary-sunrise-sunset) %%(diary-lunar-phases) &%%(org-diary) Thanks in advance, Aric -- ~O /\_, ###-\ |_ (*) / (*)

I've tried to play with this, but clearly my understanding of emacs and regex is inadequate for this. Ideally I would like to exclude all of the files except for two, agenda.org and organizer.org. Alternatively, is there a way to list all files you want excluded in the regex match pattern? I tried [[:name.of.file:]][[:name.of.another:]] but it didn't like that. I can exclude a single file just by putting it's name in, but I am not clear on how to make a list of files to exclude. Thanks, Aric -- ~O /\_, ###-\ |_ (*) / (*)

I tend to work in the Emacs instance running org mode and use the other just for email. Too much blocking if I do it all in one instance. Plus, previously there were lots of crashes, but things do appear more stable now. Thanks, Aric
[O] BBDB and Org
Hello, I am just wondering if there is a way to get org mode to stop playing with bbdb. Because I use both gnus and org, it is a bit of a hassle to have org always pulling bbdb away from gnus when I create an agenda. I have taken out all reference to bbdb and org in my start-up files. I don't use anniversary any longer (could not get it to work properly with version 3 of bbdb, despite some help from the list) and really don't see why org needs it. Any idea of how to turn it off?

[O] Org Agenda and BBDB File
Hello, I am wondering if it is possible to get org-mode to stop asking to read the bbdb file when creating the new agenda. It is a bit annoying because GNUS in another instance of emacs generally has the file. I have seemingly removed any calls to bbdb in my org set-up (initially used it for anniversaries, but now doesn't appear to work in bbbd v3). I now have no dates that need to be looked at for agenda creation in org mode. If I have '(org-agenda-files (quote ("~/org"))) and the bbdb file is in this directory, it is then used by org mode to create the agenda? My impression was that only files ending in '.org' in the directory were used. Thanks, Aric

[O] GPG Files and Agenda
Hello, I have a gpg encrypted org file in my org directory that I have tracked time on. I would like this to show up in the Agenda view when I create it and have logging on, but it seems that logged time from the gpg file is not included in the agenda. I have loaded the module org-crypt, but that does not seem to do anything different. I should note that I encrypted it outside of org-mode, I used just the emacs 'Encrypt-file' function.

[O] Habits and Diary Type Dates?
Hello, I believe that what I want to do will not work, but I thought I would ask. I have a habit that I want to do on certain days of the week only. I had the date in the org file set as the following: #+begin_src org <%%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(2 3 0))> #+end_src While it shows up on the calendar on the correct dates, it will not cycle like a habit should. It will actually move to a "DONE" state. Changing the date format back to an org date type format seems to solve the problem. Is there a work-around? Thanks, Aric -- ~O /\_, ###-\ |_ (*) / (*)

All works fine so long as I don't try to use your modified files, thus I imagined it was due to some error when installing your modified files for org, which it must be.
