It changes the state back to TODO immediatly after it is done so it still shows up in my agenda as a TODO item. So it looks for me like I never have done my repeating items, and I have to check the date to be sure. But it is perhaps difficult to make it change state later on? It could be fixed with a more advanced custom agenda command i guess. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Clockreport for each day last week?
Hi, In my work I log all hours in an org-file, and every monday I report my hours for the previous week. I have been playing with the clock-report to get a solution that displays hours for each day in the previous week, but by solution now is a a clock-report where I have to go in and change the date for each entry before updating them.

I'm constantly scouring the web-sphere for any small computer that will (a) fit in my jacket pocket and (b) run emacs! I want something to replace my old Psion 3s which is what I used until the last one died and I switched to org-mode instead. Having now gotten used (addicted, methinks) to org-mode, the bar has been raised and I cannot consider any computer that won't run Emacs as a result. There are a couple of contenders just appearing on the market, or which *may* be appearing, including the umid m1 and the openpandora project. I do fully expect something appropriate and hopefully affordable will appear on the market this year. At the moment, I use my Asus eee PC (the original model) as my organizer (typing this message on it, in fact) but it's a little large to fit in any jacket pocket unfortunately. I have been looking too, but cant help feeling anything smaller than an netbook just wont have the keyboard needed for emacs. That is the real problem. I have a Neo Freerunner (Open smartphone) capable of running most linux programs. But with a onscreen keyboard, emacs wouldn't do much good. Instead I am writing an python application that can sync and display my headers from my org file. It is not the same, but it extends the reach of my org-file. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: Re: R: [Orgmode] Show parent header in agenda
please, read more carefully the manual on section 10.5. use C-u N[1] b [1] with N the number of headings you want to go up Yes indeed, C-u 1 b shows the parent header in another buffer. It does not give me quite the overview that I am looking for but it is a decent alternative. But I think Ill give my Elisp a shot. I am thinking of a solution that would fit me. If I have a TODO that is covered by subtopics, I mark it with the todo string IN PROGRESS (an alternative would be a tag) Ill make some option so that, if there is a header marked IN PROGRESS (or tag) it will display it and a filtered selection of the subheaders. So that my agenda will look like this: mygtd: ...IN PROGRESS A main topic mygtd: ...+TODO Fix me mygtd: ...+TODO Fix me too mygtd: ...+NEXT Fix me first or something like that. But in the meantime ill just make a shortcut to C-u 1 b ;) Thanks ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Show parent header in agenda
Hi, org-mode is the best organizer in the world. To bad I cant fit emacs in my filofax ;) Want to acheive something but I do not know how. When I create my agenda, many TODO items are written in context of the parent header: ** Fix the annoying bug *** DONE Search *** DONE Fix *** TODO Test ** Create the do-it-all-function *** DONE Plan *** DONE Implement *** TODO Test And suddenly my agenda shows: *** TODO Test *** TODO Test You get the point. So, is there any way to make the org-agenda view show the parent header of my TODO items?
