[Orgmode] A few new user questions, Custom agenda views, calendar in frame, and Hyperlinks on win32
Hi Everybody I have some fairly simple new user questions, and I am hoping you guys can help me out. I have a few custom agenda views that I would like to create, but I am having some issues. My files are laid out in 1 file per project, and each file starts with a level 1 outline element tagged :project:. (I do have other file types that are appropriately tagged).I thought that if I wanted to list all TODOs in all my (appropriately tagged) project files, it would be as easy as setting up a custom agenda command. The one I set up had a tags-todo type, with search “project” or “+project”, but I get … well… no results. Ideally I’d like to have a couple of different lists, all project tagged files with TODO items and all project tagged files with WAITING items. Can someone give me a hand? (I’m not adverse to using setq in my .emacs, in fact, that might make things a little easier for me anyways) Secondly, I am having an issue where my Calendar is popping up in a new frame all the time, either when scheduling an item or through remember. I’d rather it pop up in a new window instead. Is this possible? Finally, I am having a problem with some external links, whenever I try to visit a file like \\AWindowsServer\path\to\file I get the error message “eval: ShellExecute failed: The system cannot find the file specified. ^M” Is it easy to fix this? What is going on? I am using org 6.10c, on Emacs W32 (Emacs v 22). Thanks!

Re: [Orgmode] A few new user questions, Custom agenda views, calendar in frame, and Hyperlinks on win32
I'm afraid I'm not going to be too helpful with the calendar problem. My calendar is in a different window in the same frame and the frame returns to normal after I select my date. I don't remember doing anything special for that. Likewise, I does use windows native emacs. Just cygwin. I skip the whole share mapping thing by doing cygwin mounts. About your first question, my first guess is org-agenda-files. Did you set it? You can check it out from an org buffer menu. Just look in Org - File List For Agenda. You can modify the list in that menu. It also has the current files in that menu. Agenda only deals with files in that list.

I thought that if I wanted to list all TODOs in all my (appropriately tagged) project files, it would be as easy as setting up a custom agenda command. A couple of things you might want to double-check here: 1) do you have tag inheritance turned on and 2) are the relevant TODO subheadings nested beneath the level 1 heading tagged project? That said, it's probably easier to tag the whole file by placing a filetags declaration at the top of the file: #+FILETAGS: project The one I set up had a tags-todo type, with search “project” or “+project”, but I get … well… no results. Ideally I’d like to have a couple of different lists, all project tagged files with TODO items and all project tagged files with WAITING items. Can someone give me a hand? (I’m not adverse to using setq in my .emacs, in fact, that might make things a little easier for me anyways) I find the easiest way to filter todos by tags is to use / within the agenda view. That is, hit C-c a t to get a list of all todos, then type / and the tag to filter the todo list. Secondly, I am having an issue where my Calendar is popping up in a new frame all the time, either when scheduling an item or through remember. I’d rather it pop up in a new window instead. Is this possible? Finally, I am having a problem with some external links, whenever I try to visit a file like \\AWindowsServer\path\to\file I get the error message “eval: ShellExecute failed: The system cannot find the file specified. ^M” Is it easy to fix this?

I’d rather it pop up in a new window instead. Is this possible? Check the variable calendar-setup. Setting it to nil should do what you want: calendar-setup is a variable defined in `calendar.el'. Its value is nil Documentation: The frame setup of the calendar. The choices are: `one-frame' (calendar and diary together in one separate, dedicated frame); `two-frames' (calendar and diary in separate, dedicated frames); `calendar-only' (calendar in a separate, dedicated frame); with any other value the current frame is used. Using any of the first three options overrides the value of `calendar-view-diary-initially-flag'. Nick ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
