[Orgmode] sorting entries
Hi, When sorting entries (C-c ^ t), I now get the following error: Sorting entries... Wrong type argument: listp, 1231542000.0 Emacs 22, 6.27trans (yesterday's), Mac OS X 10.5.7 This used to work.

[Orgmode] sorting entries on date created?
Dear All, I use remember to add todo entries. Mine look like this ** TODO kpdf as standard pdf viewer from auctex [2008-07-19 Sat] where the inactive timestamp is added at creation. I'd like to use org-sort to sort such entries by creation date. I'd assume I could use sorting-type ?f with a suitable getkey-func. So, is there already a function in org that I could use to extract this date?

If you change the relevant instance of org-ts-regexp to org-ts-regexp-both, it will match both active and inactive timestamps and sort appropriately. I have not tried to figure out what happens if there are multiple timestamps, active or inactive, in an entry. But if you just have a single inactive timestamp per entry, as you have indicated above, that should work.

Hi the real problem is to find the correct time stamp even in entries that have multiple time stamps, just as Nick is saying. Your best bet will indeed be to write a custom sorting function for ?f, because the way this function has to be written depends on how your entries look. For example, if we assume that the creation time is the first inactive time stamp that is at the beginning of a line (to exclude things like a CLOSED time stamp), you could use (defun sort-by-creation-time () (let ((end (save-excursion (outline-next-heading) (point (if (re-search-forward (concat "^[ \t]*\\[" org-ts-regexp1 "\\]") end t) (time-to-seconds (org-time-string-to-time (match-string 0))) (time-to-seconds now HTH - Carsten ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

In items, only the first line will be chekced. s By the scheduled date/time. d By deadline date/time. c By creation time, which is assumed to be the first inactive time stamp at the beginning of a line.
