Even if it were Scott just a function that could rewrite the dates every Scott day/week/month I find it hard to believe that so many people Scott use org-mode as a planner without this functionality. org-mode integrates pretty well with diary mode, so I use the diary file to keep my appointments, and org mode does a fantastic job of merging the diary and org mode events (deadlines, scheduled etc) for me in the *Org Agenda* buffer. diary mode allows you to schedule recurring events. For example, we hold a technical group meeting on the first friday of the month, so in my ~/diary file I have the following: %%(diary-float t 5 1) 9:15 TG Meeting the diary manual will explain what's going on here, the point being that you *can* schedule repeating events. This wiki here: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/DiaryMode will help a lot. Scott 2. I use org-mode over ssh and since shift doesn't work along Scott with other modifiers many of the keystrokes do not work. Has Scott anyone come up with alternate keystrokes not involving shift Scott that they could share? I don't understand why. I can ssh onto our servers from home, run emacs remotely, and it sees all the modifier keys. I can use SHIFT ALT and CTRL over my linux-linux ssh conection. Are you running standard UNIX/Linux machines on both sides of the connection ? Are you running emacs or Xemacs ? Frankly, I would think that not being able to use the shift key is a bit of a showstopper when entering text anyway ?

2. I use org-mode over ssh and since shift doesn't work along with other modifiers many of the keystrokes do not work. Has anyone come up with alternate keystrokes not involving shift that they could share? Shift keys not working? That, i cannot understand. The only difficulty i've come across is Meta/alt, but thats mapped to escape. So Alt-a is esc-a. If you can ssh into a box, then you can use emacs locally and set up tramp to edit these remote files. Or you could set up X11 forwarding, and, assuming you have a local X server running, you should be able to use it as normal. If your client is windows, you can install Cygwin for a local Xemacs, Emacs and X server, and use putty as the ssh client with X forwarding. 4. Has anyone written a smart function for smart adding [ ] to lines, kind of like C-c C-t does with TODO? Ideally it would be smart enough to put it after a - if there were one. I think you can use abbrev mode to do this. Tim. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode

Don't feel bad, you're not the only one. ;] I run emacs exclusively in a terminal. I could run it in X, but choose a terminal instead.

[Orgmode] recurring events, alternative to shift modifier, tag positions, smart [ ], and org-publish questions
First let me say that I've really enjoyed using org-mode for the past month or so. Thank you to all those who have contributed to it! I've had fun customizing the faces a little and this is what I came up with http://jaderholm.com/screens/org-colors.jpg 1. Is there a way to do recurring events? Even if it were just a function that could rewrite the dates every day/week/month I find it hard to believe that so many people use org-mode as a planner without this functionality. 2. I use org-mode over ssh and since shift doesn't work along with other modifiers many of the keystrokes do not work. Has anyone come up with alternate keystrokes not involving shift that they could share? 3. How do you make it so that tags appear farther to the right? I'm hoping that will keep them more inline, as long headings tend to interfere with the default position. 4. Has anyone written a smart function for smart adding [ ] to lines, kind of like C-c C-t does with TODO? Ideally it would be smart enough to put it after a - if there were one. * org-publish questions 5. I'm using org-export and I have been unable to link to an image and have it show up as an image in the exported html. [[http://foo.com/bar.jpg]http://foo.com/bar.jpg%5D] shows up as a link and @img src=http://foo.com/bar.jpg; / shows up with the markup as text and the url as a link. 6. I've had problems with lists (- items) not ending correctly and the next line, even if separated with a blank line, is considered part of the list. Do I have to explicitly end the list or has anyone seen this problem? The closest I can get to reproducing it at this moment is that if I have: text: - 1 - 2 more text the text: is in a p but the more text is not in a p. 7. Is there a way to change how the page title is exported so that it will use a span instead of an h1?
