Re: [O] [OT]: Search for missing :END:

2013-03-04 Thread Brian Wood
I just found a few of these errors in *Messages* and since I have  20 
.org files, I used this approach


cd ~/orgmode

# this gives me the byte offset  the filename for each matching line
grep -br  'CLOCK: ' *   ~/tmp/org-missing-end.txt

#this searches within a few bytes of the byte offset reported by emacs
grep -E :3007.: ~/tmp/org-missing-end.txt

Searching within a few bytes was not necessary. In my case I found a 
:CLOCK: string at the byte-offset in the error message.

Thanks.  I'll let you know as soon as I have a chance to try it.

 From latest git HEAD, you can try this column view:

   #+COLUMNS: %30ITEM %%10CLOCKSUM(Total) %10CLOCKSUM_T(Today)

It will show the total clock sum along with that of today.

HTH,

To clarify my question:

I'd like to replace CLOCKSUM with a column like CLOCK_TODAY which shows 
just today's time logged on the subtree.

Re: [O] Best practices? Multiple .org files?

2011-09-02 Thread Brian Wood

1. I would like to still see the same top-level tree that I see now
when I shift-Tab e.g:
Here's the closest thing I've found to show all top-level items across 
all .org files


C-c a s
{^\* }

If you use (setq org-agenda-start-with-follow-mode t), you can surf 
through this list looking at your other files.  I will have to try to 
learn enough lisp to bind the above command to a key combo maybe M-Shift 
Tab.  (If anyone wants to send me the lisp that'd be great!)

[O] Best practices? Multiple .org files?

2011-09-01 Thread Brian Wood
I've been using orgmode for 6 months and really like it. I started with 
on monolithic work.org file.  I'm worried that at some point this file 
will get too big and bog down emacs.  I'm not sure how big it would have 
to be...?  To avoid that I'm thinking that I should break up this file 
into multiple .org files in a directory.  If I do that:


1. I would like to still see the same top-level tree that I see now when 
I shift-Tab e.g:


* Admin
* Drupal
* MacOS
* Linux
* Time Reports

So if I create drupal.org that contains the contents of * Drupal, and 
I remove * Drupal from work.org, is there a way to still see my top 
level tree including Drupal?


2. Is there a way I can search for a string across all of my .org files 
from within orgmode?
