Re: [O] Org-mode and Taskjuggler
Just wanted to post and update that I finally put some more work into the Taskjuggler (tj3) documentation on Worg. Still haven't migrated over the export file, but added more about the available settings, pointed to some helpful tj3 documentation, and mapping tj3 syntax to Org property syntax. I was planning to use a simple home renovation project (which I am undergoing, hence my massive delays in contributing) as an example to walkthrough basic steps and task attributes. I can still create a tj3 compatible version of the official Taskjuggler tutorial in Org-mode format (or probably just modify the TJ v2.4.3 one that's used at the other Taskjuggler worg tutorial) as a more full capability example. Lastly, unless the default report definition is done, I'll include a reports.tji file with the default Taskjuggler report definition from their tutorial example as well. Feedback is welcome based on how the above sounds. - http://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/taskjuggler/ox-taskjuggler.html I noticed that this isn't seeming to be indexed by google. I moved it from the following location probably 2-3 months ago, but when I search orgmode taskjuggler tj3, only the previous location comes up as a search results: - http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html Is the dir structure too deep to get indexed?

Feedback is welcome based on how the above sounds. Sounds good to me. The org example blocks were coming out funny (at least on the chromium browser) so I added commas in front of the headlines (I also made them org src blocks, but I'm not sure that's the right thing to do). In any case, they look better to me, but can you take a look and make sure that I didn't screw anything up? Also the footnote seems to be obsolete, but I didn't change it. - http://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/taskjuggler/ox-taskjuggler.html I noticed that this isn't seeming to be indexed by google.

And it specifically says it must be set with M-x customize. But I've not bee able to find it so far. Or you can run some code, but I don't know how yet.

There is a little triangle (or something) on the LHS of the Org Export Backends: line - click that and you'll get a list of check boxes? Can you see that? Did you check the box for Taskjuggler export? Did you click Apply or Apply and Save afterwards? I reinstalled org-mode from git, so I using version 8 now. OK. -- Nick

Restarting emacs will probably restore C-c C-e. What version of org-mode are you using? Do C-u M-x org-version RET to find out. org-export-backends is new with 8.x, so if you are not running v8.x, org-export-backends is not going to be present. If you *are* running v8.x, do C-h v org-export-backends RET and then click the customize link towards the bottom of the help text. That will take you directly to the place where you can customize the variable. I'm using Emacs 23.3 which is the latest version packaged by Mint Linux. Do I need to upgrade to version 24.1? As mentioned above, the more interesting question is what version of org you are running. -- Nick
