[Orgmode] Can't make TODO dependencies work

2009-02-01 Thread John Rakestraw
Hi -- I'm eager to use the TODO dependencies feature, but I can't make it work. In my usual set-up, I (think I) have it set up correctly. (C-h C-v indicates that org-enforce-todo-dependencies is set to t.) However, the dependency simply isn't enforced. Nor is the ordered dependency enforced. I

I noticed today that, at least in my set-up, setting these variables this way: (setq org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks 'invisible) (setq org-enforce-todo-checkbox-dependencies t) means that a TODO task with checkboxes doesn't get included in the agenda. However, the sub-tasks in the checkbox list

The csv and tsv table exporters are currently including the N 'narrow columns' width specifiers. They are also appearing in the html export. I think they should be excluded, but I'm not sure what the best strategy is. It seems to me that if a row contains only width specifiers, then that row
