[Orgmode] interesting post on "what makes a good GTD list manager"

Morning all. Interesting post here from Kelly Forrister (one of David Allen's staff who trains and blogs on GTD): http://www.davidco.com/blogs/kelly/archives/2008/04/what_makes_a_go.html In my estimation, org-mode hits the spot on all of them. :-) Pete PS: for the GTD muso's on the li

[Orgmode] How to total a day's planned effort?

Hello all, While doing the weekly review, I schedule things based on various days. I use column view to see estimated effort for various scheduled tasks in a weekly view. Then I do a mental sum of the effort scheduled for the day and I find I am over-committing myself and have to reschedule so

Re: [Orgmode] export to html and relative links:

I've not tried http:foo.html -- but I suggest doing that to author a relative URL is a bad idea. I tried ./foo.html and that didn't work either. One compromise would be to get ./foo.html to link to a relative url, while foo.html continues to link to a local anchor > "Carsten" == Carsten Dom

Re: [Orgmode] export to html and relative links:

I think writing http:foo.html is a bad idea because typing that string in other contexts is sort of meaningless as a URL. Until now, everything one types in org-mode sort of has meaning elsewhere. If you want it to look like a url in this case too then I'd suggest file:foo.html -- rther than http:

[Orgmode] Re: Emacs-orgmode Digest, Vol 26, Issue 34

Hi Carsten, I thought I'd jump in with my 2 pennies: http:foo.html is a bad habit because (just perhaps) the HTML file isn't accessed by http, and then the internal links break. So if the generated HTML documents are stored locally (I fantasize that someday my PSP will be able to do this)

Re: [Orgmode] export to html and relative links:

H, this is *such* a good idea, that I will implement this retroactively into all versions since ... 2.0 or so? Abracadabra! Done. In fact, it has been working just so for a very long time. file:foo.html -> href="foo.html" file:foo.org-> href="foo.html" The second line assumes that t

Re: [Orgmode] export to html and relative links:

two suggestions: 1) accept paths like "./foo.html" as local links. 2) Augment C-c C-l to react to file: by providing filename completion relative to the working directory. The emacs binding to the w3m browser does this if you type file: in the minibuffer when prompted for a URL. > "Carsten

Re: [Orgmode] export to html and relative links:

file:// urls are already designed to be platform independent. So an org file should never carry in it a path like a\\b\\c.html -- we should always use a/b/c.html since that's the syntax used by relative URLs. > "Carsten" == Carsten Dominik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Carsten> Hi Raman, On
