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.
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.

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-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,.
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.

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.
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
marked entries in the agenda view.

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'.

The new keys are b and f. This used to be on the cursor keys, but
they do now again do cursor motion.
This is a significant change in the UI, I hope this will not cause too
many problems.
Fix bulk refiling in the agenda due to commit
9ec5529 (Fix jumping to last refile location in agenda, 2009-08-20)
This restores the original behaviour.
This bug was caused by commit
8c177dc832, and reported by Matt
Lundin. The problem was that this commit tried to remove the text
propertes of the MATCH part of an agenda command. However, in block
commands, the MATCH part is not a string.
New variable `org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown' to avoid
that a entry shows up in the agenda for today for both a scheduling
and a deadline entry. See the docstring of the variables for more
details.

Indeed the happens because, when a parent gets refiled or
achieved, any entries corresponding to its children are
removed from the agenda.
We address this issue by
- sorting the markers, to make sure parents will be handled
before children
- No longer throwing an error when a bulk action entry no
longer is present in the agenda - most likely it was taken
care of together with its parent.
This commit defines three new functions in org-timer.el:
- org-timer-set-timer, bound to `C-c C-x ;' in Org buffers
and to `;' in Org agenda buffers. This function sets a
timer for the headline the cursor is currently it. Up to
three timers can be set.
- org-timer-show-remaining-time: this shows the remaining
time for the last set timer.
- org-timer-reset-timers: this reset all timers.
This functionality was requested by Samuel Wales and emulates
that of tea-time.el -- see the emacswiki doc about tea-time.el:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/tea-time
Agenda bulk commands on marked entries now can also set the scheduling
date or a deadline. Normally, all entries will be set to the
specified date. However, when writing the change as "++5d" or "++2w",
then each time stamp will independently be shifted by that amount.
This commit implements refiling directly from the agenda.
It also implements a mechanism for selecting a number of entries in
the agenda and then executing a command on all of them. Possible
actions include archive, refile, todo state setting, and more.
When the agenda buffer for an agenda series is created, this was so
far done without the options of the custom agenda command in place.
This meant that some options would not take effect, because the only
place where that did would have an effect was during creation of that
buffer.
This commit makes sure that the global options of an agenda series are
in fact in place when the buffer is created.

This commit adds a new option
`org-agenda-skip-additional-timestamps-same-entry'. When set
to t, an entry that has multiple active time stamps will get
multiple lines in the agenda.
If the trigger for a log mode entry in the agenda has notes, for
example a note associated with a state change or with a clock entry,
the first line of the notes will now be added to the logbook entry.
You can turn this off the with new variable
`org-agenda-log-mode-add-notes'.
During secondary agenda filtering, pressing "?" now will install a
filter that selects entries which do not have an effort defined.
This new model was necessary because we needed to stop interpreting
entries with no effort defines as 0 effort. This was inconsistent,
because for normal agenda sorting, the treatment of these entries
depends on the variable `org-sort-agenda-noeffort-is-high'. Now this
variable is also respected during filtering.
The new variable `org-agenda-cmp-user-defined' can contain a function
to test how two entries should be compared during sorting.
user-defined-up and user-defined-down can then be part of any sorting
strategy.
The new variable `org-agenda-search-headline-for-time' also turned off
time searching for diary items as an unwanted side-effect. This
commit makes sure that diary entries are always parsed for a time.

This is indeed a bug. The all to `org-get-tags-at' does change the
match data if there is a match for the inheritance regexp. This
problem is now avoided by first extracting (match-string 1), and then
getting the tags.
Studying this bug also exposed another one, namely that file tags are
not marked as inherited tags. This is now fixed, immediately when
the #+FILETAGS line is parsed.
Items are listed in the agenda sometimes in bright colors, to draw
attention to important tasks or deadlines. When such an item is
switched to DONE, the state change is reflected by the new TODO
keyword, but the line itself might still be bright. Org de-emphasizes
the line by changing the face of the line. It used to change it to
the face `org-done', but now we use a new, independent face
`org-agenda-done'.
This commit implements an important change: When, during a
stuck-project search, a project tree is identified as not stuck, so
far the search would continue after the end of the project tree. From
now on, the search continues in the subtree, so that stuck subprojects
can still be identified.

Why not, C-c C-x C-w is a fine idea for this. It should now work.

This is in fact how changing time works in many applications, and
it does make sense here as well. The commits implements this
change.
It also implements a way to change the start time of an entry from
the agenda. The date is normally changed with S-right/left.
Now, if you add a C-u prefix, the hour will be changed. If you
immediately press S-right/left again, hours will continue to be
changed.
A double prefix will do the same for minutes.
Custom commands can now bind `org-agenda-filter-preset'. This filter
will then be present in the agenda view and persist through refresh
and further filtering. Only a new agenda command will remove the
filter again.
The variable org-priority-faces can now be used to set special faces
for different priority cookies.
Also, in the agenda, the default is now to fontify only the priority
cookie, not the entire task. See the variable
`org-agenda-fontify-priorities'.
Before this patch, org-agenda-quit would delete the agenda window if
the frame had more than one window. This patch changes that behavior
slightly so that if org-agenda-window-setup is 'current-window, the
agenda window won't be deleted.
A new hook is introduced, `org-agenda-before-write-hook'.
A function that ca be added to this hook is
`org-agenda-add-entry-text'. When this is done, each of the entries
shown in the agenda is amended with text that in the original buffer
is part of the entry text below the headline. Drawers are not copied,
and also the line with scheduling and deadline information is not
used. Finally, the number of ines to be added is imited by
`org-agenda-add-entry-text-maxlines'.
If the headline contains a time-of-day in one format or another, it
will be used to sort the entry into the time sequence of items for a
day. Some people have time stamps in the headline that refer to the
creation time or so, and then this produces an unwanted side effect.
If this is the case for your, use the new option
`org-agenda-search-headline-for-time' to turn off searching the
headline for a time.

I agree with this view and the commit implements exactly this.
The variables `org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines' and
`org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date, and
`org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options' are now all mentioned in
the docs.
The commands org-agenda-show can now be used to show varying degrees of
context when called with a prefix argument. `0 SPC', `1 SPC', ... `4
SPC'.
The new command `org-agenda-cycle-show' shows different amounts of
context when called several times in succession.
Christopher Suckling reports that todo state sorting doe not work in
block agenda. The reason for this that the variable
`org-todo-keywords-for-agenda' which is supposed to be a lost of all
keywords of all buffers contributing to the agenda, is not correct
during the construction of a block agenda.
Therefore, this commit instructs the todo state comparison function to
refer back to the original buffer for a list of todo keywords.
When org-depend.el is loaded, running the blocker hook will already
toggle a tag. However, when dimming the agenda, we do not want that.
Reported by Dan Griswold.
The variables =org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date=,
=org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date=, and
=org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date= make it possible to
exclude TODO entries which have this kind of planning info
associated with them. This is most useful for people who
schedule everything, and who use the TODO list mainly to find
things that are not yet scheduled. Thomas Morgan pointed out
that also the tags-todo search may serve exactly this
purpose, and that it might be good to have a way to make
these variables also apply to the tags-todo search. I can
see than, but could not convince myself to make this the
default. A new variable must be set to make this happen:
=org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options=.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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'.
If you set the variable `org-completion-use-ido' to t, and if you have
ido-mode turned on, most instanced of completion in Org-mode will use
ido-complete.
Thanks to Samuel Wales and Eric Schulte for patches to this effect.
Georg C.F. Greve asked for configurable leaders strings for agenda
display of time ranges. This patch implements these strings, in the
new option `org-agenda-timerange-leaders'.
Bernt Hanses writes:
This changes the default value for Effort during agenda filtering so
that an undefined Effort value is treated as 0 instead of nil. Tasks
with no effort defined now return zero effort when selecting tasks for
the filter.
There was effectively no way to select 'tasks with no effort defined'
using the agenda effort filter. The '<' operator is interpreted as
'<=' and the default effort selection defined in
org-agenda-filter-by-tag starts with zero ("0 0:10 ...") so this
change just treats tasks with no effort defined the same as tasks with
an effort of 0.
This allows fast selection of NEXT tasks with no effort defined.
Column view with follow-mode active in the agenda is great for quickly
filling in the agenda estimated effort values for tasks. Just display
your Next tasks, then / 0 to select tasks with no effort and enter
column mode (C-c C-x C-c) and fill in your effort values with the
quick keys (0-9) for all of the tasks that have blanks in the effort
column.
Jurgen Defume asked for a way to display only logging information in
the agenda. This patch implements such a possibility. It works by
calling `org-agenda-log-mode' (bound to `l' in the agenda) with a
double prefix arg. This sets the variable `org-agenda-show-log' to a
special value `only' which is then interpreted by the agenda-creating
functions.
Org records (depending on setup) various information about progress
achieved with projects and tasks. It can record when an item is done
(when it is "closed"), it can record time spent working on these
entries (clocking), and it can record state changes.
In the daily/weekly agenda, turning on logbook mode with the `l' key
will lists the tasks closed or clocked on a day.
This patch implements showing recorded state changes in the agenda
logbook. By default, showing state changes is not turned on. But you
can configure the new variable `org-agenda-log-mode-items' to trigger
inclusion of state changes. An alternative way is to press `C-u l' in
the agenda, to temporarily force inclusion of all possible entries
(closed, clock, state) into the agenda display.
In passing, this patch renames the function `org-agenda-get-closed' to
the now more appropriate `org-agenda-get-progress'. The old name
continues to be available as an alias, but its use is deprecated.
So far, Org used either `fit-window-to-buffer' or
`shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer' without any further checks when
displaying one of its many help and selection buffers. This can cause
problems if the user has set up Emacs to split windows horizontally
rather than vertically, because the window being shrunken then may be
side-by-side with another window, and shrinking the height of one will
also change the other.
With this patch, shrinking a window always goes through the new
function `org-fit-window-to-buffer' which only acts if the current
window spans the whole width of the frame.
Furthermore, this function also helps with compatibility, because it
falls back to `shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer' if
`fit-window-to-buffer' does not exist, as is the case on older version
of Emacs and XEmacs.
When marking a repeated entry DONE in the daily or weekly agenda, that
task would previously still be shown as TODO, because the repeater
immediately restores the TODO state after moving the time stamp. This
is bad feedback.
This problem was hard to fix. Because the same line may be present in
other lines in the same weekly agenda, we cannot simply update all
lines related to this entry.
What we do now is this: Before the repeater does its work in shifting
the time stamp and resetting the TODO keyword, we take a snapshot of
the headline as it looks then. And then, when we update the agenda
view, we change only the line at the cursor instead of all lines
related to this entry. We also make sure that this is only so if the
cursor is in a daily/weekly agenda, on TODAY's date.
There still remain possible inconsistencies. For example, if you have
a daily repeating task in the weekly agenda, and you move the cursor a
few days into the future and mark it DONE there, the entry will
actually be marked DONE for today, but still show up in today's task
list as TODO. refreshing the agenda will fix the display in such an
unlikely case.
Thanks to Jack ??? for noticing and reporting this issue.
C-c C-c still works with the cursor in a headline,
but I wanted a special binding as the default, mainly
in order to be able to set tags in a remember buffer.
So far, we had mad invisible the line including the \n after it.
This is a bad idea. When the cursor is at the beginning of the
line that is preceded by an invisible line, the local text
properties are actually those of the invisible line
just before the current.
Now we make invisible the line together with the \n *before* it,
this should fix things all right.
trees that are marked with the ARCHIVE tag and even archive files
can now temporarily be included into an agenda view.
Press `v' in the agenda to get trees with ARCHIVE tags.
Press `C-u v' to get archive files included.
There is an old XEmacs bug with indentation in the presence of
an extent with an invisibility property. We work around this now
by turning the invisibility property off, temporarily.
So far only internal links that lead to a dedicated target where
converted correctly during HTML export. Now, also heuristic
links create a working jump in a file.
This is a new display mode in the agenda view. It appends a clock
table to the daily/weekly agenda view that covers clocked time
for the time span shown in the agenda, and also limited to the
files that were used to create the current view.
