All the colors used now relate on the color wheel. The blues have been
shifted to 15% less saturation than greens, and reds are shifted to 10%
greater saturation. The colors are very close to what was there before,
but now they harmonize much more closely.

Make org-agenda-columns-summarize work properly with the new summary types.
It was assuming the values should be summarised by adding them together. It's
now updated to use the summary functions in org-columns-compile-map, and also
handles summary types with calculated values properly.
Leave calculated columns blank if there is no underlying value.
Don't return zero if a property is missing.
Changes are also applied to xemacs colview.
Exporting drawers was not really supported, now it is.
Drawers that are selected for export are formatted using the function
specified in the variable `org-export-format-drawer-function'. If
that is nil, the default `org-export-format-drawer' will publish the
drawer as a colon example, i.e. verbatim and in fixed-width.

Saving the edit buffer is achieved by calling org-edit-src-exit,
saving the org buffer and returning to the edit buffer with
org-edit-src-code. When those two functions are used in this context,
they should not attempt to restore the saved window configuration, nor
alter the saved window configuration.

This lets you see how long has passed since the specified timestamp property
each entry. The three operators (@min, @max, @mean) show either the age of the
youngest or oldest entry or the average age of the children.

Hmm, maybe the outline behavior of hide-subtree has changed???
Anyway, we now just use our own function for this.

RET will only do this if the cursor is on the link and
`org-return-follows-link' is set. `C-c C-o' will work anywhere in the
line.
Requested by Chris Leyon.
With these changes, if org-src-preserve-indentation is non-nil, or if
the block has a -i switch, then the behaviour of org-exp-blocks is
altered as follows:
1. Indentation is not removed before passing the block contents to the
block-transforming plugin.
2. The result returned by the plugin is not re-indented.
The following keys now do archiving
C-c C-x C-a archive using the command specified in
`org-archive-default-command'
This variable is by default set to `org-archive-subtree', which means
arching to the archive file.
The three specific archiving commands are available through
C-c C-x C-s archive to archive file
C-c C-x a toggle the archive tag
C-c C-x A move to archive sibling
These bindings work the same in an Org file, and in the agenda.
In addition:
- In the agenda you can also use `a' to call the default archiving
command, but you need to confirm the command with `y' so that this
cannot easily happen by accident.
- For backward compatibility, `C-c $' in an org-mode file, and `$' in
the agenda buffer continue to archive to archive file.

These changes provides frame / window management preferences for the
edit buffer generated using C-c ' on a source code block. Preferences
are specified by a new variable org-src-window-setup, which is based
on org-agenda-window-setup and has the same four options:
current-window, other-window, reorganize-frame, other-frame. These
behave as follows:
* current-window
The edit buffer appears in the current window.
* other-window
`switch-to-buffer-other-window' is used to switch to the edit buffer
in the same frame.
* reorganize-frame [default]
The current frame is reorganized so that it is split between the
source code edit buffer and the parent org buffer.
* other-frame
The edit buffer appears in a new frame. That frame is deleted when
exiting the edit buffer with C-c '.
In org-edit-src-save, point and mark were being restored inside the
save-window-excursion. As it happens, although mark is lost, point
nevertheless retained its position with switch-to-buffer being used to
switch between org and edit buffers, as is currently the
case. However, the failure to restore point correctly is exposed if
more complex options controlling window and frame management are
provided for the edit buffer.

Now the recommendation is to use clock persistence only for the
history, and to use John's code for resolving a clock that has been
idle (either because the user stopped working or exited Emacs).
This happens regardless of types and presence of source-code blocks
in the buffer. Previously interblocks were only exported when
source-code blocks of the same "type" were present in the org-mode
buffer. This decision was placed around the assumption that
exporting small inline non-block objects only made sense in the
presence of some related block type. This assumption is
artificially limiting and is now removed from org-exp-blocks.
org-habit.el (org-habit-get-priority): A new function that determines
the relative priority of a habit, based on how long past its scheduled
date it is, and how near the deadline is.
org-agenda.el (org-agenda-get-scheduled): Set habit priority using
`org-habit-get-priority'.
org-habit.el: New file, which implements code to build a "habit
consistency graph".
org-agenda.el (org-agenda-get-deadlines)
(org-agenda-get-scheduled): Display consistency graphs when outputting
habits into the agenda. The graphs are always relative to the current
time.
(org-format-agenda-item): Added new parameter `habitp', which indicates
whether we are formatting a habit or not. Do not display "extra"
leading information if habitp is true.
(org-repeat-re): Improved regexp to include .+ and ++ leaders for repeat
strings.
(org-get-repeat): Now takes a string parameter `tagline', so the caller
can obtain the SCHEDULED repeat, or the DEADLINE repeat.
(org-clock-disable-clock-resolution): New customization variable that
disable automatic clock resolution on clock in.
(org-clock-in): If `org-clock-disable-clock-resolution' is set, do not
automatically resolve anything. This is does not affect idle-time
resolution, however, if `org-clock-idle-time' is set.
(org-agenda-auto-exclude-function): New customization variable for
allowing the user to create an "auto exclusion" filter for doing
context-aware auto tag filtering.
(org-agenda-filter-by-tag): Changes to support the use of
`org-agenda-auto-exclude-function'. See the new manual addition,.
See the new manual section on "Resolving idle time".
(org-clock-resolve-clock): If keeping or subtracting time results in a
clock out at a time in the past, and if the resolution occurred due to
idleness or invoking `M-x org-resolve-clocks', remember that past moment
in time. On the next clock in, the user will be prompted to see if they
want to back-date their new clock to then.
(org-clock-resolve): Do not jump the user to the location of a dangling
clock if the resolution is occuring due to an idle timeout. In that
case there is typically only one dangling clock, the active one, and
there is no value gained by shuffling their windows around to show it to
them. Being prompted to resolve an idle clock should be as inobtrusive
as possible.
(org-resolve-clocks-if-idle): New function that resolves only the
currently active clock if the user has exceeded the time returned by
`org-user-idle-seconds', based on the value of `org-clock-idle-time'.
(org-clock-in): If, after resolving clocks,
(org-clock-out): Cancel the `org-clock-idle-timer' on clock out.
This file should be with the other org files, and not in the staging
area. Also, when file names in mobileorg.org are interpreted, this
should be relative to org-directory. So we also require now that the
user set this variable.
(org-clock-resolve-clock): New function that resolves a clock to a
specific time, closing or resuming as need be, and possibly even
starting a new clock.
(org-clock-resolve): New function used by `org-resolve-clocks' that sets
up for the call to `org-clock-resolve-clock'. It determines the time to
resolve to based on a single-character selection from the user to either
keep time, subtract away time or cancel the clock.
(org-resolve-clocks): New user command which resolves dangling clocks --
that is, open but not active -- anywhere in the file list returned by
`org-files-list'.
(org-clock-in): Automatically resolve dangling clocks whenever a user
clocks in.
(org-clock-cancel): If the user cancels the solely clock in a LOGBOOK,
remove the empty drawer.
(org-clock-idle-time): New user customizable option for detecting
whether the user has left a clock idle. Note: it is only used in this
commit to test whether it's worthwhile to check OS X to get the Mac
user's current idle time. If the Emacs idle time is less than the
value, the user hasn't been away long enough to be worth checking (a
more expensive test than just getting Emacs idle time).
(org-user-idle-seconds, org-mac-idle-seconds)
(org-emacs-idle-seconds): This three functions, in conjunction
with the user customization variable `org-clock-idle-time', return
the number of seconds (as a floating point) that the user has been
away from their Emacs (or, if running on OS X, their computer).
(org-find-open-clocks): New function that returns a list of all open
clocks in the given FILE. Note that each clock it returns is a cons
cell of the format (MARKER . START-TIME). This "clock" value is used by
several of the new clock module utility functions.
(org-is-active-clock): New inline function which tests whether the given
clock value is the same as the currently active clock. Returns non-nil
if this is the case.
(org-with-clock-position): New macro that evaluates FORMS with point in
the buffer and at the position of the given clock. Changes to the
current clock are global.
(org-with-clock): New macro that evaluates FORMS with point in the
buffer and at the position of the given clock. However, changes to the
current clock are local and have no effect on the user's active clock.
This allows, for example, far any clock to be cancelled without
cancelling the active clock.
(org-clock-clock-in): New inline function that switches the active clock
to the given clock. If either the argument RESUME, or the global
`org-clock-in-resume', are non-nil, it will resume a clock that was
previously left open.
(org-clock-clock-out): New inline function that clocks out the given
clock value without affecting the currently active clock.
(org-clock-clock-cancel): New inline function that cancels the given
clock value without affecting the currently active clock.
(org-clock-out): Accept new third parameter `at-time', which permits a
clock to be clocked out at a specific time. Note that no attempt is
made to verify that the clock out time is later than the clock in time.
(org-files-list): New utility function for returning a list of all open
org-mode buffers, plus all files used to build the agenda buffer. Note
that not all the files will necessarily be visited by a buffer at time
of call.
(org-entry-beginning-position): Like the function
`line-beginning-position', this inline function returns the beginning
position of the current heading/entry.
(org-entry-end-position): Like the function `line-end-position', this
inline function returns the end position of the current heading/entry.
(org-clock-idle-time): New user customizable option for detecting
whether the user has left a clock idle. Note: it is only used in this
commit to test whether it's worthwhile to check OS X to get the Mac
user's current idle time. If the Emacs idle time is less than the
value, the user hasn't been away long enough to be worth checking (a
more expensive test than just getting Emacs idle time).
(org-user-idle-seconds, org-mac-idle-seconds)
(org-emacs-idle-seconds): This three functions, in conjunction
with the user customization variable `org-clock-idle-time', return
the number of seconds (as a floating point) that the user has been
away from their Emacs (or, if running on OS X, their computer).
(org-find-open-clocks): New function that returns a list of all open

(org-is-active-clock): New inline function which tests whether the given
clock value is the same as the currently active clock. Returns non-nil
if this is the case.
(org-with-clock-position): New macro that evaluates FORMS with point in
the buffer and at the position of the given clock. Changes to the
current clock are global.
(org-with-clock): New macro that evaluates FORMS with point in the
buffer and at the position of the given clock. However, changes to the
current clock are local and have no effect on the user's active clock.
This allows, for example, far any clock to be cancelled without
cancelling the active clock.
(org-clock-clock-in): New inline function that switches the active clock
to the given clock. If either the argument RESUME, or the global
`org-clock-in-resume', are non-nil, it will resume a clock that was
previously left open.
(org-clock-clock-out): New inline function that clocks out the given
clock value without affecting the currently active clock.
(org-clock-clock-cancel): New inline function that cancels the given
clock value without affecting the currently active clock.
(org-clock-out): Accept new third parameter `at-time', which permits a
clock to be clocked out at a specific time. Note that no attempt is
made to verify that the clock out time is later than the clock in time.
(org-files-list): New utility function for returning a list of all open
org-mode buffers, plus all files used to build the agenda buffer. Note
that not all the files will necessarily be visited by a buffer at time
of call.
(org-entry-beginning-position): Like the function
`line-beginning-position', this inline function returns the beginning
position of the current heading/entry.
(org-entry-end-position): Like the function `line-end-position', this
inline function returns the end position of the current heading/entry.
If an active edit buffer exists for a source block, and this variable
is non-nil, then org-edit-src-code will not ask before returning to
the edit buffer, and future saves will overwrite the source block's
contents.
The default in search view is not that the search expression is
searched for as a substring, i.e. the different words must occur in
direct sequence. The old way is only used it the first word in
the search string is preceded by a plus or a minus.
This was, more-or-less, requested by John Wiegley.
New customizable variable org-src-preserve-indentation, if non-nil,
prevents automatic removal of rectangular blocks of leading whitespace
in source code blocks. This is necessary when embedding python code in
an org file with a view to extracting all python blocks into a single
file (because whitespace indentation is critical in python code). The
changes in this commit also fix two bugs:
- Setting org-edit-src-content-indentation to zero resulted in an
infinite loop in org-edit-src-exit.
- Fixed width regions are defined by lines starting with a colon, with
optional leading whitespace. However, if there was any leading
whitespace, org-edit-src-exit behaved incorrectly, causing the leading
whitespace to grow.
When a backend selects its #+begin_backend ... #+end_backend
code, the markers need to be removed so that a package like
org-special-blocks.el does not try to work on the block again.

This is now possible, but it is not the default. You need to set

Indeed, a space before the caret was not allowed in LaTeX export

The new variable org-mobile-files can now be configured to include
non-agenda files into the staging area for MobileOrg. Furthermore,
files that are located in a subdirectory of `org-directory' will also
end up in a sub-directory in the staging area.

Many agenda commands split the current window, which is not allowed on
a frame containing a dedicated window.
Therefore, we now just kill the frame by hand when exiting the agenda.
priority
So far the headline had to match the one specified in the template
exactly, except for tags. Now a TODO keyword and a priority can be
added, and the headline will still be found.

When odd levels are being used, change the interpretation of a
numerical arg to S-TAB.

org.el (org-offer-links-in-entry): Don't use "Select link" as a prompt
in the temporary window.
org-agenda.el (org-agenda-bulk-mark): Use a slightly soberer prefix for

This commit sets up such a variable, and also a hook.

The category can contain a bracket link. This commit makes sure that
the prefix in the agenda looks OK if there is a link, and that the
link is accessible with `C-c C-o 0'.
