Re: [Orgmode] Re: SOLVED: elisp formulas in column view (without converting to tables)

2009-06-09 Thread Carsten Dominik

Hi,

sorry for replying so late to this proposal, which is a very
nice idea.  However, specifying lisp formulas in a #+COLUMNS
definition might be a bit tedious.

In the mean time, we have installed (in version 6.27) a patch by
Mikael Fornius.  This patch defines new operators `min', `max',
and `mean', and special versions for time computations `min:',
`max:', and `mean:'.  The patch also captures all operator
definitions into a single variable, which does allow for
user-defined Lisp operators.

I have not tried, but I believe it might now be simple to add new
operators by just adding to the variable `org-columns-compile-map'.
I would be interested to hear if someone has amended this variable
successfully.  If yes, maybe we can expose it better by making
is a defcustom, or by introducing a buffer-local add-on to it.

Hope this helps

- Carsten

It allows you to specify how to accumulate values from child headers,
and how to specify the value for the current header, based on other
columns.
In the column specification you place elisp code between the braces
{} after the column name. This elisp should return a list of 2
values. The first value should be the value for that header, and the second
value should be the running total of values so far at that level, which 
 will
eventually be used to set the value for the parent header.

The following values may be referenced by your elisp code:

| $name | the value of the 'name' column for this header 
 (swap 'name' for whatever columns you have) |
| curval| the current value for this header
   |
| curtotal  | the running total from headers at the same level 
 as this one   |
| prevtotal | the total from headers below this level  
   |


I forgot to mention that curtotal will be nil if the current header is
the first header at the current level, and prevtotal will be nil if the
current header has no children. You can test for these in your elisp functions.
