Re: [Orgmode] Task time limit
I finally got time to try this code :) Copied into my .emacs file, changed the time to 1 minute, clocked in a task, waited a minute and nothing happened :) What could I be doing wrong?

I advised `org-clock-in' so that each time I am clocking in a new task, a new appointment is triggered. `my-org-appt-add' can also be called interactively. ;; Make sure you have a sensible value for `appt-message-warning-time' (defun my-org-appt-add (optional n) Add an appointment for the Org entry at point in N minutes.

(my-org-appt-add)) Maybe another idea is to bind (progn (org-clock-in) (my-org-appt-add)) to a key in org-agenda-mode-map, since advising `org-clock-in' is a bit too much IMO. Or we could use some kind of filtering to decide whether clockin in an entry should trigger a new appointment. Anyway, that's just a quickstart, let me know if this is useful. -- Bastien ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Custom agenda view
Hi, I'm trying to create a custom view that should display agenda for only items that are scheduled today and include a specific tag together with tasks that has NEXT todo keyword and the same tag. Currently I have this: (h Home tasks ((agenda) (tags HOME/NEXT))) The problem is that agenda, it shows all scheduled tasks and not only those with HOME tag. I tried with org-agenda-skip-entry-if but I can't make it work. Thanks. -- Sebastjan ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Problems with moving items
Hi, After I upgraded my old 5.17 with 5.19 version it started to move too much spaces when I used archive, move or any other feature that uses it. Lets say we have this list: * hehe ** TODO hehe1 ** TODO hehe2 ** TODO hehe3 Now we archive hehe2. This is what you get: * hehe ** TODO hehe1 ** TODO hehe3 Is this a feature or a bug?

[Orgmode] Moving items to categories
Hi, another quick question, I have a lot of categories so I move todo items around a lot. I currently use copy/paste method, but it's quite slow. Is there anything similar to setting tags, where you get autocompletion etc? Thanks, Sebastjan ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Task time limit
Hi, another idea for a feature (if it's not already possible) that would definitely come handy. I have few tasks that should only take a limited amount of my time each day. For example, check the feed reader would be set to 20 minutes. I would clock-in the task, go and check the reader and after 20 mins, alarm would go off, reminding me that I should start doing something else. Is this possible with current version?

[Orgmode] Dependant tasks

Re: [Orgmode] Re: Estimated times
I managed to create a nice column view, except for the logging work part. It uses its own format of date ranges so I cannot just simply sum it as time estimates. A new time range summary type would come handy ;) Sebastjan On 10/29/07, Vagn Johansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Christian Egli [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Sebastjan Trepca trepca at gmail.com writes: I was wondering if there is a way to set a time estimate for a task and then match it with actual logged time?

[Orgmode] Estimated times
Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to set a time estimate for a task and then match it with actual logged time? After you finish it of course. Maybe something similar as checkbox counters. * TODO learn about emacs [0/2, 0h/20h] - [ ] read emacs manual (10h) - [ ] read elisp manual (10h) First counter counts the finished subtasks, second shows overall logged time and the estimate. Not very pretty, but I would imagine it as something like that. I really like checkboxes :) It's a really nice way to create mini subtasks.

Re: [Orgmode] Org-mode version 5.12
Idea about having A priority tasks in bold is good, but I don't think so for italic. I think italic is much more visible then normal font, so I was wondering how could I disable this feature for only italic tasks. I want to have A tasks bold, B tasks normal and C tasks in less visible color like silver.

Re: [Orgmode] depending TODOs, scheduling following TODOs automatically
Hey, I'm new here but I have to say that I totally agree with Pete. Why not just work on integration with popular project management tools? e.g export to Jira, Trac, ... (btw, syncing todos with Trac tickets would really come handy :) Sebastjan On 10/11/07, pete phillips [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Carsten == Carsten Dominik [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Carsten First, let me say that I was surprised that quite a few Carsten people are so keen to see this kind of features. I myself Carsten would worry a lot about spending more time to set up and Carsten maintain these connections, than I would be saving by using Carsten them. And I am not sure if Org-mode really scales up Carsten nicely when it comes to really large projects, large number Carsten of people interacting, keeping complex GANTT charts up to Carsten date etc. Me, I have sometimes made these charts during an Carsten initial project setup, to get a feeling what amount of time Carsten and resources would be needed, but I have never kept these Carsten complex structures alive and up to date. I have to say that I'm a bit worried if org-mode goes in this direction. Just because Carsten may be able to beat it into shape to do this (albeit in very elegant lisp), it doesn't mean he should. org-mode developed as a means of maintaining lists, and it excels at this. Just because the GTD methodology uses the term Project doesn't mean that we should turn org-mode into a fully fledged project planning application. If you need project planning capability, then you probably need all the bells and whistles that go with it - GANT and PERT charts, critical path calculations, multi-user capabilities etc. My concern is that *very* few people need that type of functionality, and if you do, there are now some very good applications now under GNU/Linux to choose from. org-mode is a superb PIM and list manager (in my view, probably about the best there is). Just because we have one incredible hammer, let's not start seeing everything else as a nail! Just a personal viewpoint of course. :-) Pete ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
