An agenda series can have a set of global options. Matt Lundin
reported that these options to not work completely. There reason was
that, when calling `org-finalize-agenda' for a series, the dynamic
binding of those options was already off again. This commit makes
sure that these bindings are available also during this final step.
When using "C-u C-u M-x org-remember RET" in order to jump to the last
storage location, the code failed to show the matching entry. This
commit makes sure that at least the headline of the last remember note
is made visible.
With the "* Footnotes" heading as last line in the buffer, footnote
insertion did not position new definitions correctly. This commit
fixes the problem.
Reported by Matt Lundin.
This commit adds an option to org-w3m, to decide whether the mark
should be deactivated after copying the region.
New version from author Andy Steward.
Sorting footnotes used to be almost like normalization, in that all
footnotes would be collected into a single location. Now sorting
respects the setting of `org-footnote-section'. If that is nil,
sorting will actually move each footnote into the outline node of its
first reference.
This commit add a new face for footnote labels, and activates footnote
labels for mouse clicks and for `C-c C-o', to jump to the
corresponding reference or definition.
This patch implements fully automatic creation of unique labels for
footnotes, which is also turned on as the default setting. The
automatic labels look like [fn:1], [fn:2], etc, using the first
available unused number.
The commit introduces a new variable, `org-footnote-auto-label' with a
number of different options ranging from no auto creation (prompting
the user for a label) to fully automatic creation.
Also, the commit introduces new #+STARTUP options that can be used to
select these settings on a per-file basis.
There was a bug with documents with more than one anonymous footnotes,
which would all end up to reference the first one only. The patch
fixes this problem.
Setting org-footnote-section to nil now causes definitions to be
inserted at the end of the current outline node, instead of into a
special node names "Footnotes".
A new perl program, list-hooks.pl, now extracts the full list of hook
and function variables in Org, for inclusion into Worg's org-hooks.org.
Also, add a docstring to a few hooks that did not have one.
This patch introduces more hooks for preprocessing the export buffer,
at various strategic moments. See the Changes.org file for a
description of the hooks.
Org-mode allows multiple references to the same footnote. However,
the HTML exporter cannot use the same name for all these references,
because names have to be unique. This patch appends numbers to
footnote reference names, to make sure they remain unique.
The dark side of this patch means that from the footnote definition,
there is only a single link, to the first reference of the note.
However, in a browser you can always press BACK to go back after
jumping to a footnote definition.
This patch adds support functionality for the new code references. It
makes sure that `C-c C-o' will follow a code reference correctly. It
also extends the command org-store-link to actually create a new code
reference cookie when used in a source code temporary buffer created
with "C-c '". The new link will be stored, so that it can be inserted
with `C-c C-l'. When inserting such a link, no description will be
prompted for, because these coderef links should best not have a
description part.
This patch covers the three main backends, html, latex, and ascii. It
adds the code to make sure the coderef links identified by the
preprocessing will be implemented correctly when a backend does its work.
This patch covers the much of the new line numbering and code line
referencing.
We introduce a new function with the longish name
`org-export-replace-src-segments-and-examples'. It is an extension of
the earlier `org-export-replace-src-segments'. It now also covers
EXAMPLE blocks, not only source code blocks. This was necessary to
allow line numbering also in EXAMPLE blocks.
Both clock types now accept a string with options which will be given
in the BEGIN line. Options currently recognized are -n, +n, and -r.
A bit unsatisfactory about this patch may be that LaTeX-specific code
is now defined in org-exp.el, maybe eventually we want to think of a
way to move this code back to org-export-latex.el. Really, all it
does is adding line numbers and wrapping them into a verbatim
environment.
Besides adding line numbers in a backend specific way, this patch also
adds code to search or special cookies in source code, like "((1))" or
"((name))". These are labels that can be addressed by links as
references to specific line in source code.
This patch adds a new constant with javascript functions. Each
exported HTML file will contain these definitions. Also, we add to
the default export CSS style a new class, code-highlighted, which will
be used to highlight lines in code whenever the mouse overs over a
link to this line.
The remember handler was creating a buffer with `find-file-noselect',
and then trying to find it back using `get-file-buffer'. Apparently
there are situations where this can fail, to we now use directly the
buffer returned by `find-file-noselect'.
In a recent patch we have introduced names for all fields in the last
row. This has lead to a bug, that Org thinks there might be a field
formula associated with those fields. Now we check if there really is
one, and only in this case ask to overwrite it with a column formula.
Report by Henry Atting.
The dynamic block capturing column view has an :id parameter that does
select from where the column view should be captured. The routine
searching for this entry so far only searched the current file, now it
uses the full ID API to find the entry also in another file.
Furthermore, a value "file:path/to/file.org" will capture the global
column view of that file.
Report by Francois Lagarde.
1. When LaTeX export was done with a time-stamped file, a format
error in the timestamp format caused the output file to not
have the % comment in front of the time string. As this line
is early in the file, a LaTeX error would result.
2. Replacement of some special characters could fail. Strangely
this shows up only in XEmacs, but it still is a bug.
Both bugs were reported by Hugh Daschbach.
When refiling to the current file, the completion commands do not show
the file name. This was broken because I had switched from comparing
truenames to normal names. Now I am using expanded names, this is fast
and works well.
After the failed implementation of `@0' as a reference for the last
line, this is a second attempt to provide such references. I would
have liked to allow `@last' as the reference, that would have been
beautiful. However, too many regular expressions directly search for
`@' followed by a number, so this is too hard to implement.
Therefore, I am now turning the last row into a row of implicitly
named fields. From now on, $LR1, $LR2,... can be used to refer to
fields in the last row. These names may also appear on the left hand
side of formulas.
A prefix argument to the `org-agenda-show' command is now interpreted
to make sure the entire entry is made visible in the other window, not
only the headline.
Updating agenda lines did display tags incorrectly, because it used
the list of tags available as a property to remake the list. However,
that list contains down-cased versions of the tags, because all the
filtering in the agenda does ignore case in tags.
This patch implements a fresh scan for the tags each time a line is
updated, and in this way fixes the problem. It also reverses a
previous attempt to fix a similar problem.
Text inside tables did not receive the full treatment of handling sub-
and superscripts, and of special character quoting like %, &, and {}.
This patch does fix this, but I am worried that I am overlooking the
true reason why Bastien did switch off these conversions. We'll see
if and what this will break.
Exporting tables to LaTeX suffered from the problem that Org tables
are often long, but that the tabular environment in LaTeX cannot
handle long tables. This patch fixes this issue.
LaTeX export can now deal with very long tables, by setting an option
in the "ATTR_LaTeX:" line. Also, you can specify the alignment by
hand. Here is an example:
Also, table export now correctly deals with tables that start with a
hline. In such a case, also the LaTeX version will have this extra
hline before the first line.
This patch introduces three improvements to refile target construction,
which should speed these functions up significantly.
1. A faster way to move up a level in the outline hierarchy
2. A better way to construct the outline path, in the case
that the command is scanning the entire hierarchy anyway
3. Avoid comparing the true-names of files.
The last data line in a table is often a line with important data, for
example sums of a column. In tables with varying length, the row
number of this line is constantly changing, which makes it hard to
write programs creating tables and then installing formulas.
This patch introduces @0 as a special reference to the last row, so
that @0$3 would be the field in the last row, 3rd column.
Unique identifiers for entries can now be used more efficiently.
Internally, a hash array has replaced the alist used so far to
keep track of the files in which an ID is defined. This makes it
quite fast to find an entry by ID.
There is now a new link type which looks like this:
id:GLOBALLY-UNIQUE-IDENTIFIER
This link points to a specific entry. When you move the entry to
a different file, for example if you move it to an archive
file, this link will continue to work.
The file /org-id.el/ contains an API that can be used to write
code using these identifiers, including creating IDs and finding
them wherever they are.
Org has its own method to create unique identifiers, but if the
system has /uuidgen/ command installed (Mac's and Linux systems
generally do), it will be used by default. You an also select
the method by hand, using the variable =org-id-method=.
If the ID system ever gets confused about where a certain ID is,
it initiates a global scan of all agenda files with associated
archives, all files previously known containing any IDs, and all
currently visited Org-mode files to rebuild the hash. You can
also initiate this by hand: =M-x org-id-update-id-locations=.
Running this command will also dump into the =*Messages*= buffer
information about any duplicate IDs. These should not exist, but
if you /copy/ an entry with its properties, duplicate IDs will
inevitably be produced. This is unavoidable in a plain text
system that allows you to edit the text in arbitrary ways, and a
portion of care on your side is needed to keep this system clean.
The hash is stored in the file =~/.emacs.d/.org-id-locations=.
This is also a change from previous versions where the file was
=~/.org=id-locations=. Therefore, you can remove this old file
if you have it. I am not sure what will happen if the =.emacs.d=
directory does not exists in your setup, but in modern Emacsen, I
believe it should exist. If you do not want to use IDs across
files, you can avoid the overhead with tracking IDs by
customizing the variable =org-id-track-globally=. IDs can then
still be used for links inside a single file.
IDs will also be used when you create a new link to an Org-mode
buffer. If you use =org-store-link= (normally at =C-c l=) inside
en entry in an Org-mode buffer, and ID property will be created
if it does not exist, and the stored link will be an =id:= link.
If you prefer the much less secure linking to headline text, you
can configure the variable =org-link-to-org-use-id=. The default
setting for this variable is =create-if-interactive=, meaning
that an ID will be created when you store a link interactively,
but not if you happen to be in an Org-mode file while you create
a remember note (which usually has a link to the place where you
were when starting remember).
Tables, and Hyperlinks that represent inlined images, can now be
equipped with additional information that will be used during
export. The information will be taken from the following special
lines in the buffer and apply to the first following table or
link.
- #+CAPTION: :: The caption of the image or table. This string
should be processed according to the export backend, but
this is not yet done.
- #+LABEL: :: A label to identify the figure/table for cross
references. For HTML export, this string will become the
ID for the `<div class="figure">' element that encapsulates
the image tag and the caption. For LaTeX export, this
string will be used as the argument of a `\label{...}'
macro. These lables will be available for internal links
like `[[label][Table] ]'.
- #+ATTR_HTML: :: Attributes for HTML export of image, to be
added as attributes into the `<img...>' tag. This string
will not be processed, so it should have immediately the
right format.
- #+ATTR_LaTeX: :: Attributes for LaTeX export of images, to
be inserted into the optional argument of the
`\includegraphics[...]{file}' command, to specify scaling,
clipping and other options. This string will not be
processed, so it should have immediately the right
format, like `width=5cm,angle=90'
For LaTeX export, if either a caption or a label is given, the
element will be exported as a float, i.e. wrapped into a figure
or table environment.

This patch fixes these issues.
Tassilo Horn asked for this, because he finds the default behavior of
silently choosing a different row too confusing. I actually do agree.
The main use of this feature was running averages, if you need this
feature, you can customize the variable
`org-table-error-on-row-ref-crossing-hline'.
Moving trees up or down with XEmacs caused a problem when the tree is
at the beginning if the buffer or narrowed region. This patch
protects the relevant calls to outline-flag-region so that they are
only executed if the range is valid.

This patch add a new customization variable `org-tag-faces' that can
be used to specify such faces. The rest of the patch implements these
new faces in Org-mode buffers as well as in the agenda.
It seems that CSS and Java-script stuff should be quoted in a very
strange way in order to make sure that the resulting file functions
correct in current browsers *and* validates against various XHTML and
XML standards. To be honest, the quoting technique seem really
strange, but Sebastian Rose argues, that this is the way to handle
this issue.
Gnus uses w3m to wash HTML messages and installs w3m-minor-mode-map in
these buffers. Therefore, this patch makes sure that the special copy
command that converts HTML links to Org-mode links also gets installed
into the minor mode map.
This is as yet untested.
Calling `org-archive-to-archive-sibling' caused problems when used
several times in a row. The new killed subtree would be appended to
the current head of the kill-ring, instead of being pushed there. The
reason for this is that the command `kill-region', which is called by
`org-cut-subtree' changes the variable `this-command', so that during
the next archive command, `kill-region' will think that the previous
command was also a kill and do the append.
Normally this is wanted, to make sure that several kill commands
create one big yank string. But in this case it has to be avoided.
The patch fixes the problem by let-binding (and therefore protecting)
the value of `this-command' around the call to `org-cut-subtree'.

Harri Kiiskinen suggested that it might be useful to make the LOCATION
property an inherited property during iCalendar export. In this way
you can have set the LOCATION for a whole set of items by setting it
only in the parent.
While this will slow down iCalendar export for large files, I think it
can be quite useful. This patch does implement the basic code needed
for this functionality. However, you still need to tell Org that
LOCATION should be inherited, by setting org-use-property-inheritance.
If you set it to t, beware that this may trigger a significant
slowdown when creating the match view in the agenda. So it may be
better to set this variable to
(setq org-use-property-inheritance '("LOCATION"))
instead.
This patch improves the internal handling of the large number of
export options that Org-mode has. In particular, it now defines a
single constant, `org-export-plist-vars' that contains the full list
of options, and how these can be accessed through variables, and
through the #+OPTIONS line. Before the patch, there used to be a
separate list or the OPTIONS handling, which has gotten out of sync.
This now no longer can happen.
Also, this patch adds two new variables, `org-export-with-priority',
and `org-export-with-todo-keywords', which can be used to turn the
export of TODO keywords and priority cookies on and off, so that these
can simply disappear and not be shown in the exported file. In fact,
the default for the priority cookie is to remove it.
There were bugs in the mapping API, pointed to by Samuel Wales:
Manual says:
The following example counts the number of entries with TODO keyword
WAITING, in all agenda files.
(length (org-map-entries t "/+WAITING" nil 'agenda))
Org says invalid function for the string.
First of all, the example in the manual was wrong, the "nil" should be
gone. Second, the mapping function did not return all results in a
list, so that `length' could not count them.
This patch fixes these issues.
In addition to "<now>", "<today>", "<yesterday>", and
"<tomorrow>", there are more special values accepted now in
time comparisons in property searches: You may use strings
like =<+3d>= or =<-2w>=, with units d, w, m, and y for day,
week, month, and year, respectively
Thanks to Linday Todd for this proposal.
So far, the only way to select tags for inheritance was to
allow it for all tags, or to do a positive selection using
one of the more complex settings for
`org-use-tag-inheritance'. It may actually be better to
allow inheritance for all but a few tags, which was difficult
to achieve with this methodology.
This patch introduces a new option,
`org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance' which allows to specify an
exclusion list for inherited tags.
This patch does a lot of things. First, it makes sure that the tags
transferred to the agenda as text properties on each line are do carry
information about there origin (in the form of an `inherited' text
property). Then it modifies the function creating agenda lines so
that inherited tags will be listed and identified as such in the
agenda.
This new feature can be turned off with a new variable,
`org-agenda-show-inherited-tags'.
This file implements a special function to copy text from a w3m buffer
in a way that when the text is yanked back into an Org-mode buffer,
the links will be translated to Org syntax.
This key needs special treatment, because it needs to work *outside*
tables. The patch introduces a special command to call the
creation/conversion function if there is no conflicting binding to
`C-c |' outside of orgtbl-mode.
S-SPC did lead to an error in orgtbl-mode, because there is no binding
to this key. Now orgtbl-self-insert-command falls back on calling
self-insert-command for such cases.
This cleans up the implementation of the timer. Most important change
is that, after starting a time list with `C-c C-x -', you can then
simply use M-RET to add new items, which is addictive!
This patch implements a relative time for taking timed notes, useful
for example while watching a video, or during a meeting which is also
recorded. Here are the new commands:
- `C-c C-x .' ::
Insert a relative time into the buffer. The first time
you use this, the timer will be started. When called
with a prefix argument, the timer is reset to 0.
- `C-c C-x -' ::
Insert a description list item with the current relative
time. With a prefix argument, first reset the timer to 0.
- `C-c C-x 0' ::
Reset the timer without inserting anything into the buffer.
By default, the timer is reset to 0. When called with a
`C-u' prefix, reset the timer to specific starting
offset. The user is prompted for the offset, with a
default taken from a timer string at point, if any, So this
can be used to restart taking notes after a break in the
process. When called with a double prefix argument
`C-c C-u', change all timer strings in the active
region by a certain amount. This can be used to fix timer
strings if the timer was not started at exactly the right
moment.
When starting the publishing process with
`org-publish-current-project' from a file that is located in a project
that is also a component of a parent project, this patch now makes
sure that the entire parent project is published instead.
The creation of an automatic site map in org-publish with the
:auto-index and :index-filename parameter does exclude the index
file name from being added to the index. There was a bug which would
exclude this file name also in all subdirectories in a project. This
patch switches the comparison from looking at file names only to
looking at the complete path.
RET did fail in orgtbl-mode, if the cursor was at the beginning of the
buffer. Now it opens a new line whenever the cursor is at the
beginning of a line, and that includes the beginning of the buffer.....
Org-mode still has a few operations that do not work well when the
first line of a buffer is a headline. One was constructing the clock
table, but this one is eliminated by this patch.
When the export skips the text before the first headline, we now
include the comment line before the first headline, if any.
This makes sure that we can specify an anchor for this headline.
"\\" at the end of a line marks forces line breaks for HTML and LaTeX
export. ASCII export does preserve lines anyway, but these line break
indicators might still be present and need to be removed.
Reported by Rustom Mody.
This patch introduces a new variable,
`org-list-two-spaces-after-bullet-regexp'. It can be a regular
expression matching plain list bullets. When it matches, changing the
bullet type will introduce two spaces instead of one after each
bullet.
For example,
(setq org-list-two-spaces-after-bullet-regexp "[.)]")
will make two spaces after "1." and "1)".
This patch compacts the persistence code. It also make sure that no
variables outside Org's name space are created. Finally, it makes
sure that the resumed clock is not hidden after a restart of Emacs.
Saving the clock history and the running clock could lead to pointers
to non-existing buffer, or to dired buffers of directories. This
patch implements more consistency checks.
It also allows a new value for `org-clock-persist'. When this is
`clock', only the running clock, but not the entire clock history
is saved.
Commands that modify the bullet style of a plain list, or that
renumber such a list may lead to changes in the width of a bullet.
The indentation of the lines below such a bullet is now automatically
adapted.
Also fixes a bug in bullet style cycling.
