The directory does exist, but there is no "dir" file there.

It used to just use cp to install the files, which worked fine for me, so I have just reverted the Makefile back to the old method for now. I am on OS X 10.5.5 in case it matters. Cheers Will William Henney 2008-10-06T16:33:39 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/8398 Hi list, I am new to this list and somewhat new to org-mode. My .emacs includes (setq org-tag-alist '( (:startgroup) ("< at >phone" . ?1) ("< at >laptop" . ?2) ("< at >online" . ?3) ("< at >uni" . ?4) ("< at >kl" . ?5) ("< at >home" . ?6) ("< at >thinking" . ?7) ("< at >programming" . ?8) ("< at >writing" . ?9) ("< at >meeting" . ?0) (:endgroup) (:startgroup) ("APH" . ?a) ("AGMEETING" . ?g) (:endgroup) (:startgroup) ("idea" . ?i) ("question" . ?q) ("reference" . ?r) ("note" . ?o) (:endgroup) (:startgroup) ("work" . ?w) ("private" . ?p) (:endgroup) (:startgroup) ("refile" . ?f) (:endgroup) (:startgroup) ("project" . ?j) ("dissertation" .?s) (:endgroup) (:startgroup) ("review_daily" . ?m) ("review_weekly" . ?,) ("review_monthly" . ?.) (:endgroup) )) (setq org-use-tag-inheritance '("work" "private")) I thought this should have the effect, that work and private are inherited while all other tags are not. But C-c C-c on the second line of: * Test 1 :< at >laptop:work: *** Test 2 shows, that < at >laptop is inherited while work is not inherited. The documentation of org-use-tag-inheritance states Therefore, I assumed that work should be inherited and < at >laptop. Is this a bug in the documentation or the implementation? How can I get the negated behaviour? Best regards, Jean _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

I'd really like to encrypt certain outlines and encode/decode them on several machines without worrying about managing public/private keys. I can see how using public key crypto might be benefecial when sharing files between several parties, but for the case where a single user simply wants to synchronise org files between various machines (and never store/transmit sensitive data unencrypted) then a symmetric cipher seems preferable due to its lower overhead. Has anyone done this? R. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

If I enter a anniversary for the 1st of March, org doesn't show it in the agenda and complains with "Bad sexp at line 9 in /home/sec/org/geburtstage.org: (org-bbdb-anniversaries)" It seems to have to do with the special-casing of the 29th of February in leap-years, i.e. when I comment the following lines: ,---- | ;; we don't want to miss people born on Feb. 29th | (when (and (= m 3) (= d 1) (not (calendar-leap-year-p y))) | (setq annivs (cons annivs (gethash (list 2 29) org-bbdb-anniv-hash)))) `---- the bug goes away. Thanks, Tom Tom Rauchenwald 2008-10-05T17:25:01 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/8387 Hello All, I have set a "#+FILETAGS: :Personal:" in my org file (did a C-c C-c to initilalize it.) The tag did not appear in the agenda view like I expected it to. I was hoping to use agenda view filtering on tags to see a subset of tasks with that tag (without having to set that for all tasks.) What else do I need to do for it to work?

The biggest news is the integration of John Wiegley's attachment system that allows to keep a directory with file attachments for each entry. Great stuff. As usually, you can get the release through GIT, or at http://orgmode.org Enjoy! - Carsten Changes in Version 6.08 ======================= Incompatible changes ==================== The default structure of IDs has changed ---------------------------------------- IDs created by Org have changed a bit: - By default, there is no prefix on the ID. There used to be an "Org" prefix, but I now think this is not necessary. - IDs use only lower-case letters, no upper-case letters anymore. The reason for this is that IDs are now also used as directory names for org-attach, and some systems do not distinguish upper and lower case in the file system. - The ID string derived from the current time is now /reversed/ to become an ID. This assures that the first two letters of the ID change fast, so hat it makes sense to split them off to create subdirectories to balance load. - You can now set the `org-id-method' to `uuidgen' on systems which support it. C-c C-a no longer calls `show-all' ---------------------------------- The reason for this is that C-c C-a is now used for the attachment system. On the rare occasions that this command is needed, use `M-x show-all', or `C-u C-u C-u TAB'. Details ======= New attachment system --------------------- You can now attach files to each node in the outline tree. This works by creating special directories based on the ID of an entry, and storing files in these directories. Org can keep track of changes to the attachments by automatically committing changes to git. See the manual for more information. Thanks to John Wiegley who contributed this fantastic new concept and wrote org-attach.el to implement it. New remember template escapes ----------------------------- %^{prop}p to insert a property %k the heading of the item currently being clocked %K a link to the heading of the item currently being clocked Also, when you exit remember with `C-2 C-c C-c', the item will be filed as a child of the item currently being clocked. So the idea is, if you are working on something and think of a new task related to this or a new note to be added, you can use this to quickly add information to that task. Thanks to James TD Smith for a patch to this effect. Clicking with mouse-2 on clock info in mode-line visits the clock. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks to James TD Smith for a patch to this effect. New file in contrib: lisp/org-checklist.el ------------------------------------------ This module deals with repeated tasks that have checkbox lists below them. Thanks to James TD Smith for this contribution. New in-buffer setting #+STYLE ----------------------------- It can be used to locally set the variable `org-export-html-style-extra'. Several such lines are allowed-, they will all be concatenated. For an example on how to use it, see the publishing tutorial. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

It should probably be commented out. ./org-id.el:306: (debug) Eric Schulte 2008-10-04T19:38:22 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/8373 First, let me say thank you to Carsten and everyone else for this wonderful note-taking/PIM/spreadsheet/everything-but-the-kitchen-sink software. It is one of the best computer tools I've ever used. As an Emacs neophyte, I remained humbled by the generosity of those with far superior computer skills. I am an academic and I use LaTeX footnotes extensively in my writing. I'd like to be able to write my drafts in org-mode and then export them both to HTML and LaTeX. The problem is that the emacs footnote mode is not very robust (being designed for emails with one or two footnotes). Trying to add more than a handful of footnotes to a document with footnote.el quickly becomes a nightmare (ordering gets broken, the count gets messed up, etc.) And now for the question (which will betray my ignorance about emacs lisp). How complicated would it be to write a function for org-export that would transform the LaTeX markup for footnotes (i.e., \footnote{text}) into hyperref footnotes? I'd like to be able to enter the LaTeX footnote markup directly in my org file and then export it to html.[1] Or, if this wouldn't work, how complicated would it be to create a different footnote markup altogether for org-export? One possibility, I imagine, would be a footnote markup with unique labels for each footnote, such as: Here is a sentence with a footnote.[fn:label] ... [fn id=label] And here is the footnote. This latter option would allow for the arbitrary placement of footnotes in html documents. Thanks for your suggestions! ---- Matthew Lundin mdl at imapmail dot org ---- [1] I've checked the mailing lists and documentation, and as far as I can tell, \footnote is not one of the embedded LaTeX macros that org recognizes. Please do correct me if I am wrong. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

As all relevant keys in that case are bound to orgtbl-self-insert-command, the problem may lurk in that function definition. I first thought the problem might be an interference with auctex, but now see it can be reproduced with text mode after starting Emacs from the command line with "emacs -q" and evaluating "(require 'org-install)" in the *scratch* buffer. Thanks for this excellent mode and thank for any and all help!

As I could not find on, I tried it with a slightly changed function from ledger.el: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (defun org-align (&optional column) (interactive "p") (if (= column 1) (setq column 95)) (while (search-forward ":" nil t) (backward-char) (let ((col (current-column)) (beg (point)) target-col len) (skip-chars-forward "-:a-zA-z") (setq len (- (point) beg)) (setq target-col (- column len)) (if (< col target-col) (progn (goto-char beg) (insert (make-string (- target-col col) ? ))) (move-to-column target-col) (if (looking-back " ") (delete-char (- col target-col)) (skip-chars-forward "^ \t") (delete-horizontal-space) (insert " "))) (forward-line)))) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- It only works half because numbers are also skipped forward. henry _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
