On Android, GnuRoot is a quick and easy solution for running Emacs along with git, ssh, hg, and anything else you might need for your org-mode workflow, and it doesn't even require a rooted device (I prefer using Lil'Debi for running Emacs, but it requires a rooted device and a bit more commitment).

I'm not disparaging the MobileOrg-Android app, it looks great, and works great given the MobileOrg protocol it has to work with, but it's just not what I want to work with.

Also, on most Android tablets, you can use Emacs[1] itself. For MS Windows, you can install Emacs normally, or, if you're concerned about using your Org-Mode notes on other peoples' computers, you may want to try Portable Emacs[2] on a USB flash drive. You can also, in a pinch, use any other text editor (that is smart enough to handle cross-platform line endings), though, of course, you'll lose the folding and highlighting features that make org-mode files easy to navigate. 2. I don't know how organize all my contents when it become more and more. With a hand writing notebook, I have physical pages, in Microsoft Word, I also have virtual pages. In org-mode org file, I don't. It's like my org file is a endless roll of toilet paper(forgive me for being rude)! And I think it's the main reason makes me feels so uncomfortable to handle org file. You can use top-level headlines for this, and always fold headlines that you're not looking at. Some other people have also metioned tags. The agenda and sparse trees are other ways org-mode offers of looking at subsets of your data. 3. Hard to import pictures, web pages...into org file.(In fact I don't know how).

Is it possible to fix this? As you probably realize, this is because those buffers aren't server-editing buffers. The problematic behaviour is as follows: 1) look at the agenda in emacsclient 2) close emacsclient (org-mode buffers opened by agenda are not closed) 3) some hours later the files are edited by git etc 4) open emacsclient to edit some org-file and when saving in emacs it complains rightly that the file has been changed on the disk. Thus I would need a way to close the buffers opened by org-agenda when the emacsclient exits. You might consider global-auto-revert-mode. If a buffer does not have unsaved changes, and emacs notices that it has changed on disk, it automatically refreshes it to the new version. If it does have unsaved changes, then it uses the normal behaviour. As long as you remember to save your org-mode buffers when you're done with the agenda, and rely on your VCS to avoid losing data to overwriting, then it should be pretty transparent. -- +---+ | Jason F.

Ah, I see. I just tried it. Thanks for the tip. I personally don't do this enough to want it to be automatic. In other work flows it may be wrong for it to be automatic. For example: If you are in org FILE1 and quit with an open clock and then restart Emacs and open org FILE2 which also has an open clock it would be wrong to make that one active - since the last clocked time you used was in FILE1. I agree, there are thorny issues. I think your way is better, especially considering that I'm not _constantly_ restarting Emacs, I just want to be able to _deal_ with restarting Emacs. It might be nice if C-u C-c C-x C-i could find open clocks in the open file and in the agenda files, and offer them to you as things to clock into. Perhaps only if it can't find any recently-clocked tasks in the normal way, which it can't do right after starting emacs. It's pretty rare for me to restart emacs in the middle of the workday, but when I do (usually because of upgrading emacs or a major package), the agenda-log-view shuffle /works/ (better than manually searching), but could be better. -- +---+ | Jason F.

At the moment I have to a lot of todos in my agenda which I cannot work on because of the trigger not ready. Or I have to undo the todos to not see them and not forget to trigger them myself at the right moment. What I do is mark tasks that can't be done yet as either NEEDSPREREQ or WAITING, or put them in my SomedayMaybe.org file if there's no possibility I'll get to them before my next weekly review. I only look at NEXTACTION tasks when I'm choosing a task to do, and when I complete a task, I look at its project to see if any NEEDSPREREQ tasks can now be done. If so, I change those to NEXTACTION. Yes, it would be possible to annotate these with a hook of some kind so that they are changed from NEEDSPREREQ to NEXTACTION automatically. But my feeling is that doing that would frontload the planning process too much, take just as much time/attention, and overall interfere with getting things done. -- +---+ | Jason F.

If you're using a GTD-like methodology, all you really need is something that is good at maintaining lists of things (and generating cross-cutting lists of things like project vs. context). If you are using a day-planner methodology, all you really need is to be able to maintain dated lists with attached statuses. Org-mode is really good for both of these things. Once you get into enterprise (read as over-bureaucratized) project planning, then you really need software designed for the bureaucratic requirements of your organization, or for your organziation's bureaucracy to be built around something like MS-Project.

The clock table was a quick hack I once did, but apparently not really though through very well. I can't volunteer to write anything at this point, but I do have some comments. I think accumulating CLOCK entries in the outline is The Right Thing. It keeps the times with the tasks, and so forth, and clocking in and out of tasks is really convenient. What we're lacking right now are flexible-enough ways of dealing with the information those entries represent. Right now, the clock table does everything I really need to do, but not everything I would like to be able to do. Here are some things that any future org-clock.el or similar ought to be able to handle: 1. Including CLOCK entries from all org-agenda-files in its summaries 2. Including CLOCK entries from archive files associated with files used to construct its summaries. Right now I can't archive completed projects because of the need to include them and their tasks in monthly reports, for example. 3. Conversely, limiting summaries to only a subtree (having a clock table per project, for example).

Re: [Orgmode] [POLL] How do you enter your tasks/todos ?
Xavier Maillard [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: This is a serious question. I have no success at all (it is even worse than before) with the GTD methodology and I am pretty sure it has to do with the way I manage toenter new todos in my system. I almost only use remember for that. I guess I'm wrong using this method. I use both remember and directly editing my main org-mode file. Things from remember only go into my Inbox.org, which I manually process into my Projects.org. So what is the way you do ? The same apply for your diary, do you solely use org-mode or do you also happen to use the calendar/diary ? I don't use diary-mode. I did use it for recurring appointments and such, but org supports those natively now. Optionnal question: does anybody successfully use org-mode and GTD ? Yes, mostly. I'm very successful with it at work; not so much at home, but that is a motivational problem, not an organizational one, and GTD is not a motivational system. I'm working on a detailed whitepaper on my org-mode/GTD usage, but it's not my highest priority right now. -- +---+ | Jason F.

Re: [Orgmode] Interpretation of priorities in org-mode
Piotr Zielinski [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I'd like to find out how different people use priorities (#A, #B, ...) in org-mode. I've always assumed the standard interpretation (#A = high priority, #B = medium, #C = low). However, the problem with this approach is that what high priority means is not well defined, and if you are not careful, then all your items will quickly become high priority, which defeats the whole point. I don't really use priorities at all, since I'm using org-mode to do GTD. If something has to be done today, then that's a deadline, not a priority. If I don't need or want to get something done /in the next week/, it probably shouldn't be crowding up my todo-lists at all, and making it harder for me to find things I should be doing; it should be on my someday/maybe list. -- +---+ | Jason F.

[Orgmode] Updated agenda printer script
And, as promised, here's the updated version of the agenda printer script. This version has only bugfixes and compatibility fixes. There are some more fundamental changes (listed in the TODOs in the source comments) that need to be made, but I'm waiting on a round tuit for them. I hope people find this useful, and that it is more usable for them than the previous version. Changes: 1. Uses os.popen3 rather than the subprocess module; as a result, it should work with python versions earlier than 2.4. 2.

You can then generate somewhat naff PDFs which are at least the right paper size and so forth by printing from a web browser. Alternative idea: Many people seem to be using scripts (orgna.pl, for example) to do this kind of thing, which seems to be perfectly reasonable. Maybe a good idea would be to make it easier for scripts by letting org-mode handle the logic of selecting things, then just feeding the data to the script in a sensible format? org-batch-agenda /very nearly/ does this. I think it could be improved as an adjunct to external script-writing by providing two things: 1. An unambiguously parseable output format with some semantic content. An XML microformat would do dandy for this, but something like adequately-escaped comma-separated text with defined columns for category, status, title, and tags would also do well enough. 2. Support for arbitrary tag/keyword searches, though continued support for cmd-keys from org-agenda-custom-commands would still be conveient. Anyone else's thoughts? -- +---+ | Jason F.

Even taking the fancy publishing and timer stuff out of it, it would be actually quite useful to be able just to export to html (or whatever other target). For example, to produce printed context lists for away-from-the-computer contexts.

Why don't we wait until I actually contribute something useful ;) There is one difference. When everything is in one line, I'd expect C-c C-t to reach these states. When they are in different lines, you will need C-S-right to get to them. Both ways have their advantages. I guess for a special state like CANCELED, a separate sequence would be good, but I can imagine cases where one would like different ways of saying an entry is done. I'm not sure what would be better. But this reminds me that we need a tty compatibility binding for org-shiftcontrolright and org-shiftcontrolleft. -- +---+ | Jason F.

[Orgmode] Todo-list agendas with multiple
The progress on multiple TODO sequences has reminded me of a small thing that bugs me with TODO keyword search agendas. It's not possible to have a TODO keyword search agenda that matches multiple keywords (such as SOMEDAY|MAYBE). You can include multiple TODO keywords in a tag search agenda, but that doesn't behave quite the same. In particular, it will include scheduled headlines. I wonder if this is straightforward to fix, or too deeply ingrained in the design of the TODO list agenda? A workaround is to use a block agenda that includes both TODO keyword searches. -- +---+ | Jason F.

Not so bad, maybe: #+SEQ_TODO: TODO DONE #+SEQ_TODO: RESOLVED #+SEQ_TODO: CANCELLED This is, in fact, more or less what I'm doing. Actually I have one sequence for actions, one for projects, and one for unusual states (like CANCELLED); I'm finding more uses for it as time goes on. So the extra flexibility is more than I actually need, but not so much that I can't see any use for it. I would like to see this settable in lisp, though, since I want to use my TODO keywords all across my GTD system rather than different ones in different files. I can probably try to put together a patch to do this tomorrow, just so that I'm not kibitzing without offering code. Or maybe this should actually be like this:? #+SEQ_TODO: TODO | DONE RESOLVED CANCELLED I don't think an extra syntax would be too worthwhile. If you're already setting TODO keywords in the file itself, three lines vs. one line is not a big deal. -- +---+ | Jason F.

[Orgmode] Buglet with scheduled in TODO lists
I have org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled set to t. One behaviour I have noticed is that scheduled TODO items will still show up in TODO-type agenda buffers if there is something in between the headline and the SCHEDULED line. This can happen very easily if one is using time tracking. Example: NEXTACTION Weekly Review REPEAT(+1w) CLOCK: [2007-02-20 Tue 08:30]--[2007-02-20 Tue 08:50] = 0:20 CLOCK: [2007-02-13 Tue 08:30]--[2007-02-13 Tue 09:03] = 0:33 CLOCK: [2007-02-05 Mon 13:30]--[2007-02-05 Mon 14:29] = 0:59 SCHEDULED: 2007-02-26 Mon 08:30 Weekly review appears in my list of Next Actions, and I expect that it shouldn't. If I move the SCHEDULED line to right below the headline, it doesn't appear in my list, which I believe is the correct behaviour. -- +---+ | Jason F.
