Re: [O] different hoisting in two panes
Awesome, thanks. This makes Org-Mode truly a two pane outliner. Actually it's three pane I guess, since it includes metadata. Yeah... 3 pane, the agenda view would be a pane. I would suggest adding this command to the documentation for Org-Mode under the outlining section somewhere. I've been using Emacs for years as a non-techie and never came across it. For writers it's only really useful for visibility cycling of outlines, so they're not likely to come across it elsewhere.

Re: [O] different hoisting in two panes
Ah, I see... that explains why it always narrows focus when I execute C-x C-c b What you described is an advanced use case which while interesting I'm not sure I fully understand. Whereas simply editing an outline in the style of most two-pane outliners is more of a basic function usable by everyone who needs to organize his thoughts. So more prominent featuring of this in the outlining section of the org-mode docs would be good... it really amplifies Org-Mode's power.

Indirect buffers may be useful for much more then just visibility cycling. You can use a different major mode in each buffer, narrow to different regions, etc.. If you are, for instance, inserting an org-mode table in a latex document (see [1]) you might want to clone the buffer, change one of them to org-mode and narrow to the table. Then you can edit the table normally and alternate with editing the latex document as you want.

[O] different hoisting in two panes
One of the major shortcomings of org-mode as an outliner is the following: You cannot have different hoisting or outline visibility settings in two panes of the same file. For example, if you want to hide the body text and just view outline headings in one pane, while you work on the body text of a specific entry in the other pane, you cannot do this. This prevents flexible restructuring and writing on the fly. It removes much of the usefulness of having multiple panes. Is there any way to change this behavior? Or is it something hardcoded into Emacs? Thanks JB -- Ignore the following. It is a nonsense sentence that disables Google ads from displaying next to my emails by triggering sensitive keywords.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: Force completed habits to revert to HABIT todo keyword instead of TODO
David, I understand what your second function does, but I'm confused about what the first one does. Does the first function set all habits to have a return to state property? Or does it cause all habits to revert to the return to state defined keyword, if it is defined? I was asking how to set return to state for all the habits contained in a single file. Since I have a lot of habits and none of them currently have a return to state property.

[Orgmode] Vague, difficult to trace error on malformed habits
Hi Org-Mode, Today I receved the stringp, nil error when attempting to generate my agenda buffer. By a process of gradually eliminating all the text in my org buffer and retesting, I eventually traced the error to a habit TODO item that I'd forgotten to give a repeating scheduled date. It was scheduled and had a small history, but the .+1d was missing. I added this and the agenda started working again. Obviously I don't want to do this every time I forget to add recurrence to a habit. Since I know what I'm looking for now I can search for a scheduled tag for today's date that's missing recurrence. However, other people may run into this error, be unable to reverse it due to a more complicated setup or whatever, and essentially have a broken org-mode. It would be great if the error were more verbose. I read in the mailing lists that a newer version of org-mode gives an informative error. I am using 7.01h, which is the current stable version. Were they referring to a development version? Thanks, JB -- Ignore the following.

[Orgmode] bug - #+STARTUP: indent breaks replace priority command
This one is very easy to duplicate. Add the variable #+STARTUP: indent to the top of the org buffer. Hit C-c C-c with point on the startup variables to refresh the setup. Create a todo item. Assign it priority A via C-c , A. Then reassign it priority B via C-c , B. When indent mode is enabled, you will get an error stating args out of range -1, -1 When indent mode is not enabled, reassigning priorities works. I suspect it can't find where to replace the priority because of something in the star hiding mechanism of indent mode. Thanks, JB -- Ignore the following.

[Orgmode] bug report - org-agenda-sorting-strategy
I have a bug to report for org-agenda-sorting-strategy. I customized this variable to sort by priority ONLY using the Org Agenda Custom Commands interface. However, the priorities continue to be out of order. I am sorting habits, some of which have no repetitions yet. It seems to be sorting some of them by priority and some by scheduled date. To be clear, I can modify priority-down or priority-up and see a change. The habits with a repetition history sort properly. It appears that only habits with no repetition history are sorting by date rather than priority. If you cannot duplicate this bug on your own setup, I will copy additional information such as my .emacs and I'll be open to running further tests. I'm running org 7.01h.

Re: [Orgmode] cannot enable org-habit
I figured out what I was doing wrong. I was looking for habit tracking in the wrong place. It shows up after the command C-a a a, not C-a a. All I had to do to enable org mode was put (require 'org-habit) in my .emacs. I didn't need to add it to the modules list. I didn't need to alter my properties for the entry. The only way I know to test whether org-habit is working is to look for a frequency bar on the schedule of your agenda generated by C-a a a. In order for this to show up, you have to have a habit that's scheduled for today. The bar just looks like colored background text on the rest of the line after the todo item. It will show your history with *'s and !'s. It uses the colors grey, purple, green, yellow and red. I will reread the manual and learn more about using the module. Thanks for the help!

Re: [Orgmode] cannot enable org-habit
Scratch that, there is an easier way to test whether org-habit is activated. The reason K (uppercase) wasn't working for me was I thought the screen activated by C-a a beginning Press key for agenda command was the agenda buffer. It is not. The agenda buffer shows your weekly schedule. Press K there. You should get a message that habits have been disabled/enabled. If not, org-habit is not working.
