* org.texi (Fast access to TODO states): Explicitely says only
letters are supported as fast TODO selection keys.
* org.el (org-todo-keywords): Ditto.
Thanks to Samuel Wales for pointing at this.
* org.el (org-link-expand-abbrev): Implement "%(my-function)"
as a new specifier. Update the docstring.
* org.texi (Link abbreviations): Illustrate the use of the
"%h" specifier. Document the new "%(my-function)" specifier.
Thanks to Takaaki ISHIKAWA who came all the way down from Tokyo
to Paris and raised a not-so-distant issue: "could we translate
emails from the mailing list and have a URI for each translated
email?" See the update in the manual for an answer.
* org.el (org-mode-map): Add `C-c C-x C-I' as a keybinding for
`org-clock-in-last'.
* org-clock.el (org-clock-continuously): New option.
(org-clock-in): Three universal prefix arguments set
`org-clock-continuously' to `t' temporarily.
(org-clock-in-last): Fix call to `org-clock-select-task' and
support continuous clocking.
(org-clock-out-time): New variable.
(org-clock-out): set `org-clock-out-time' when clocking out.
Small docstring rewriting.
(org-clock-remove-empty-clock-drawer): Fix "invalid search
bound" bug when trying to delete empty logbook drawer.
(org-clock-cancel): If the clock log is gone, send a warning
instead of deleting the region that is supposed to contain it.
* org.texi (Clocking commands): New cindex.
(Clocking commands): Update documentation for `org-clock-in'.
Document `org-clock-in-last'. Mention `org-clock-out' and
`org-clock-in-last' as commands that can be globally bound.
(Resolving idle time): Document continuous clocking.
* org.texi (Top, Introduction): Fix formatting.
(Activation): Add index entries.
(Conventions): Update section.
(Embedded @LaTeX{}): Fix formatting.
Mention that `C-c a' is assumed to be the keybinding for `org-capture'
in the whole manual. Thanks to Vagn Johansen who triggered this.
Aloha all,
The attached patch changes the link to the languages supported by babel
from a directory listing to the Worg page that uses a table to link to
the language-specific documentation pages. It was suggested by John
Hendy.
All the best,
Tom

Subject: [PATCH] org.texi: fix typo
* doc/org.texi (The spreadsheet): fix typo
* org.texi (Using capture): Mention the
`org-capture-last-stored' bookmark as a way to jump to the
last stored capture.
* org-capture.el (org-capture-bookmark): New option.
(org-capture-finalize): Use it.
* org.texi The sections in the Exporting section of the manual left
out articles in the description of the org-export-as-* commands, among
other places. This patch adds them, adds a few missing prepositions,
and switches instances of "an HTML" to "a html" for internal
consistency.
TINYCHANGE
* org-agenda.el (org-agenda-persistent-marks): New option to
keep marks after a bulk action. The option defaults to nil.
(org-agenda-bulk-action): Use the new option.
* org.texi (Agenda commands): Document persistent marks.
* org-capture.el (org-capture-fill-template): Use %\n instead of %n as a
template element to be replaced with the nth prompted string.
(org-capture-templates): Update docstring.
* org.texi (Template expansion): Update doc to reflect change.
Using %n triggers errors when the template contains escaped strings,
which happens a lot with links.
* org-table.el (orgtbl-send-table): Escape special characters.
Introduce a new parameter :no-escape to prevent escaping.
* org.texi (Radio tables): Document the :no-escape parameter.
Thanks to Alexander Willand for raising this issue.
* org-archive.el (org-archive-subtree): Allow archiving to a
datetree.
* org.el (org-archive-location): Ditto.
* org.texi (Moving subtrees): Document the ability to archive
to a datetree.
TINYCHANGE
* org.texi: Alter several examples of headings with timestamps
in them to include the timestamps in the body instead of the heading.
* orgguide.texi: Alter the same examples in the same way as for
org.texi.
The Org-mode manual explicitly discourages the inclusion of timestamps
in headlines, yet examples do just that. These changes make the manual
consistent with its own advice.
TINYCHANGE
* org.el (org-latex-create-formula-image-program): New option
to use either dvipng or imagemagick to convert and preview
LaTeX fragments.
(org-preview-latex-fragment, org-format-latex): Handle the new
option.
(org-create-formula-image-with-dvipng): Rename from
`org-create-formula-image'.
(org-create-formula-image-with-imagemagick): New defun to
handle LaTeX preview with imagemagick.
(org-latex-color, org-latex-color-format): New defuns to
handle color conversions.
* org-latex.el (org-latex-to-pdf-process, org-export-as-pdf):
Allow to use imagemagick to convert LaTeX fragments.
* org-html.el (org-export-html-preprocess): Ditto.
* org-exp.el (org-export-with-LaTeX-fragments): Ditto.
* org.texi (@LaTeX{} fragments): Document imagemagick as an
alternative to dvipng.
* org.el (org-repeat-re)
(org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift, org-auto-repeat-maybe)
(org-deadline, org-schedule, org-matcher-time)
(org-time-stamp, org-read-date, org-read-date-get-relative)
(org-display-custom-time, org-get-wdays)
(org-time-string-to-absolute, org-closest-date)
(org-timestamp-change): Allow to set hourly repeat cookie.
Send an error when an hourly repeat cookie is set and no hour
is specified in the timestamp.
* org.texi (Repeated tasks): Document repeat cookies for
years, months, weeks, days and hours.
* org-agenda.el (org-agenda-get-timestamps): Match hourly
repeat cookies.
* org-icalendar.el (org-print-icalendar-entries): Handle
hourly repeat cookies.
Thanks a lot to Takafumi Arakaki for this idea and for a preliminary
version of this patch.
* doc/Makefile: rename auto-generated file "git-describe.texi" to
"org-version.inc" to allow for easier inclusion into Emacs.
* doc/org.texi: include "org-version.inc" instead of
"git-describe.texi".
* lisp/Makefile: new auto-generated file org-version.el with autoload
cookies. The version strings will be pulled during autoload
extraction into org-install.el (standalone org-mode) or
../loaddefs.el (Emacs).
* doc/Makefile: introduce target for git-describe.texi, which is an
automatically generated file that records the output of git-describe
and date; remove this file during make clean
* doc/org.texi: remove @set for VERSION and DATE and do an @include
git-describe.texi instead
