this merges better with the rest of the flow in emacs, i.e., I
basically do not use the arrow keys for movement (too far from my
fingers! ;-)).


I agree that n/p would be better that arrow keys here, I'm also often
misusing the arrow keys.


This is a pretty important change in the UI.  I would like to
get a general vote to decide this.  See my separate message.

Hi,
just a new user to org-mode, I apologize directly for jumping up and raise the 
hand ;)
Other Projects run a little smooth transitions if changes like that are going 
to be performed. 
Maybe it is in general interesting to create a protocol which will do 
something like

1. For the next n releases, both keys are present by default. However, using 
the arrow keys will create a warning message in the minibuffer ala
The function of the arrow keys are obsolete please use n or p see xyz.org for 
more information
2. After n releases it might be clear to the majority of all users and they 
either updated there conf-files for an individual solution or got used to the 
new style.
3. Perform the transition and switch off the obsolete keys


Just an idea

Greetings

Totti

[Orgmode] Accidentally holding down LEFT arrow in Agenda

2009-08-24 Thread Richard Lewis
Hi there,

This is sort of a bug query. Occasionally, I accidentally hold down
the LEFT cursor key in Agenda mode, hoping to move the cursor left,
but forgetting that it actually moves to next week.

This is sort of a nuisance because it renders every week I've
accidentally requested (I think) and takes ages.

I know the best solution is for me to be more careful, but I wonder if
any alterations could be made to (org-agenda-later) (possibly) to
detect multiple calls or something?

Best,
Richard

You can interrupt the long wait with C-g.

Another possibility would be to more the org-agenda-later/earlier from  
the cursor keys and put them onto some other keys.  I do sometimes  
think myself that it was a mistake to use the Cursor keys for this  
functionality..

  I use org-agenda-clockreport-mode and then I see a table in the agenda. 
Sometimes I accidentally change day after pressing left/right because I wanted 
to move to the cell to the left/right. I should use Tab, but it doesn't work.

  I would say that it doesn't make sense to change day when the cursor is over 
a clock report table in the agenda. But each person may see this differently.

This is not a editable table, which is why TAB does not work.

Yes, you might want to do the same customization as Manuel
describes earlier in this thread.
