* lisp/org-capture.el (org-mks): Moved to org-macs.el.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-mks): Added from org-capture.el.
The move is being done to accommodate the usage of org-mks in other
Org libraries.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-completing-read): Use `define-key' instead of
`org-defkey'.
For bootstrapping reasons, "org-macs.el" isn't expected to require
functions from "org.el". Besides, minibuffer isn't supposed to depend
of `org-disputed-keys' either.
* lisp/org.el (org-split-string): Move the function...
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-split-string): ... here. Also clarify
docstring with regards to `split-string'.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-read-function): New function.
* lisp/org-table.el (org-table-sort-lines): Make WITH-CASE an optional
argument to match org-sort-entries and org-sort-list.
* lisp/org.el (org-sort-entries):
* lisp/org-table.el (org-table-sort-lines):
* lisp/org-list.el (org-sort-list): Read COMPARE-FUNC when called
interactively rather than being restricted to the default behavior of
sort-subr's PREDICATE parameter. Only prompt for for GETKEY-FUNC and
COMPARE-FUNC during an interactive call, like org-table-sort-lines
already did for GETKEY-FUNC, but use an argument rather than relying
on the brittle called-interactively-p.
Suggested-by: Zhitao Gong <zhitaao.gong@gmail.com>
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2017-05/msg00040.html>
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-replace-match-keep-properties): Remove function.
This function is unused through the code base and doesn't specifically
belong to a public API.
Protect apostrophes not covered by the last backport. Convert
expressions like '(...) to \\='(...) and symbols written as 'name to
`name'. (In addition to ensuring the correct display, the latter also
improves consistency with many Org docstrings.)
If these aren't protected, Emacs 25 may display them as curved quotes in
the help buffer, depending on the value of text-quoting-style.
Add changes from Emacs repo that should have been backported with
bb77dd2.

* lisp/org-{macs,list}.el: Fix lexical warnings
* lisp/org-list.el (org-list-struct): Remove unused var `ind'.
(org-list-get-next-item, org-list-get-prev-item)
(org-list-get-children): Mark unused arg `struct'.
(org-list-use-alpha-bul-p): Remove unused var `bul'.
(org-toggle-checkbox): Mark unused var.
(org-update-checkbox-count): Remove unused var `box-num'.
(org-adapt-indentation): Declare.
(org-list-parse-list): Declare var instead of adding a dummy duplicate.
(org-list-send-list): Remove unused var `txt'.
(org-list-to-latex, org-list-to-texinfo): Mark unused arg `params'.
(org-list-to-subtree): Add prefix to dyn-bind var, and declare them.
* lisp/org-macs.el: Use `declare'.
(org-with-limited-levels): Declare dyn-bound vars.
This allows org-narrow-to-subtree to function in Outline mode.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-get-limited-outline-regexp): Use
outline-regexp instead of org-outline-regexp when not in Org mode.
* org-macs.el (org-autoload): Delete.
* org-docview.el ("docview"): Fix declarations and require
doc-view directly.
* org-id.el (org-id-copy)
(org-id-get-with-outline-path-completion)
(org-id-get-with-outline-drilling, org-id-new):

(org-columns-open-link, org-string-to-number):
* org-clock.el:
(org-clock-put-overlay, org-count-quarter, org-clock-loaded):
* org-archive.el (org-get-local-archive-location):
* org-agenda.el (org-agenda-todo-custom-ignore-p):
Autoload.
Those functions were autoloaded from within calls to `org-autoload'
in org.el, we now autoload them from where they live.
* lisp/ob-eval.el, lisp/ob.el, lisp/org-macro.el, lisp/org-mhe.el:
Require org-macs and org-compat as necessary.
* lisp/ob-tangle.el: Declare function `org-store-link' and
`org-open-link-from-string'.
* lisp/org-compat.el: Extend eval-and-compile clause and add advices
for functions that have different parameter lists in XEmacs. Add
variable definitions that XEmacs lacks .
* lisp/org-macs.el (declare-function): Define macro to use autoload
instead for XEmacs.
* lisp/ox-html.el, lisp/ox-odt.el: XEmacs does not have table.el, so
use 'noerror on the require form.
* lisp/ox-texinfo.el (org-texinfo-table-column-widths): Fix spliced
argument list that XEmacs complains about by adding parenthesis.
This fixes all compilation failures on XEmacs and warnings related to
Org that indicate that XEmacs has compiled things wrongly (for
instance it might have interpreted a function as a variable symbol).
There are still many warnings that probably indicate serious problems.
* org.el (org-show-context): Remove useless catch. Make sure the
top of the window is a visible headline.
* org.el (org-activate-plain-links): Remove unused catch.
* org-macs.el (org-get-alist-option): Return nil, not (nil), so
that `org-show-context' DTRT.
Thanks to Samuel Wales for his patience in reporting this.
* org-macs.el: Don't define `with-silent-modifications' for
emacsen that don't have it.
* org-compat.el (org-with-silent-modifications): New
compatibility macro.
* org.el (org-refresh-category-properties)
(org-refresh-properties, org-entry-blocked-p)
(org-agenda-prepare-buffers):
* org-indent.el (org-indent-remove-properties)
(org-indent-add-properties):
* org-colview.el (org-columns-display-here)
(org-columns-remove-overlays, org-columns-quit)
(org-columns-edit-value, org-columns-compute-all)
(org-columns-compute, org-agenda-colview-compute):
* org-clock.el (org-clock-sum): Use the compatibility macro
`org-with-silent-modifications' instead of
`with-silent-modifications'.
Thanks to Achim for a preliminary patch.
* org-macs.el: Add a comment on when to use `org-unmodified'
and when to use `with-silent-modifications'.
* org-colview.el (org-columns-display-here)
(org-columns-remove-overlays, org-columns-quit)
(org-columns-edit-value, org-columns-compute-all)
(org-columns-compute, org-agenda-colview-compute):
* org-clock.el (org-clock-sum):
* org.el (org-refresh-category-properties)
(org-refresh-properties, org-entry-blocked-p)
(org-agenda-prepare-buffers): Use `with-silent-modifications'
instead of `org-unmodified'.
Thanks to Stefan Monnier for reminding me about `with-silent-modifications'!
* org-pcomplete.el (pcomplete/org-mode/file-option/x):
Resurrect. Use `org-default-options' to initialize completion
fonctions for the most important keywords.
* org-macs.el (org-default-options): Rename and adapt from
`org-get-current-options'.
This is a partial revert of e14cf780 feature-wise. The idea is
that it may be useful to get completion, even when it ends up with
the default value, because the user may want to adapt the default
values instead of re-typing them.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-if-unprotected, org-if-unprotected-1,
org-if-unprotected-at): Removed macros.
(org-re-search-forward-unprotected): Removed function.
* lisp/org.el (org-format-latex): Remove reference to `org-protected'.
* lisp/org-list.el (org-list-struct): Remove reference to
`org-example' and `org-protected'.
* lisp/org-footnote.el (org-footnote-at-reference-p): Remove reference
to `org-protected'.
* lisp/org-capture.el (org-capture-fill-template): Remove reference to
`org-protected'.
* contrib/lisp/org-wikinodes.el (org-wikinodes-process-links-for-export):
Remove reference to `org-protected' value.
These text properties were used by the old export framework. They are
not needed anymore.
* lisp/org-macs.el: New macro to allow the 5-argument form of load to
be used where possible without breaking compatibility with XEmacs.
* lisp/org.el (org-version, org-reload): Use
`org-load-noerror-mustsuffix´ instead of adding a fifth argument to
load directly. Guard against undefined variable load-suffixes,
which doesn't exist in XEmacs.
Since load-suffixes doesn't exist in XEmacs, (org-reload 'uncompiled)
will not work. If it doesn't complicate the compatibility macro too
much this can be added later.
* org-macs.el (org-with-buffer-modified-unmodified): New
macro.
* org.el (org-entry-blocked-p): Use the new macro.
Thanks to Nick Dokos for reporting this.
The macro is a copy of `with-buffer-modified-unmodified'
which (wrongly?) lives in bookmark.el.
* org-macs.el (org-no-properties): Allow a new parameter
`restricted' to restrict the properties removal to those in
`org-rm-props'. The default is now to remove all properties.
* org-compat.el (org-substring-no-properties): Remove unused
defun.
* org-remember.el (org-remember-apply-template): Remove
redundant removal of text properties.
(org-remember-apply-template): Use `org-no-properties'.
* org-capture.el (org-capture-fill-template): Remove redundant
removal of text properties.
(org-capture-fill-template): Use `org-no-properties'.
* org-gnus.el (org-gnus-open, org-gnus-follow-link): Use
`org-no-properties'.
This patch ensure Org-mode will build on all supported versions of
Emacs, after the renaming of the cl macros behind the cl- prefix in the
recent Emacs trunk.
* lisp/org-compat.el (org-flet): Compatibility function now that flet
has been removed from cl-macs.
(org-labels): Compatibility function now that labels has been removed
from cl-macs.
* lisp/ob-R.el (org-compat): Require org-compat.
* lisp/ob-comint.el: Require org-compat.

(org-fill-paragraph): Switch to compatibility function.
(org-auto-fill-function): Switch to compatibility function.
* org.el (org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree): New option
to allow promoting a top-level subtree.
(org-called-with-limited-levels): New variable, dynamically
bound within the `org-with-limited-levels' macro.
(org-promote): Use the new option to allow promoting a
top-level subtree.
* org-macs.el (org-with-limited-levels): Let-bind
`org-called-interactively-p' to t.
Promoting a top-level subtree can be useful but should not be allowed by
default, as this restructuring is only reversible with M-x undo RET.
* org.el (org-auto-fill-fallback-function)
(org-indent-line-fallback-function)
(org-fill-paragraph-fallback-function)
(org-auto-fill-fallback-function)
(org-indent-line-fallback-function)
(org-fill-paragraph-fallback-function): Remove.
(org-fb-vars): New buffer-local variable.
(orgstruct++-mode): Use the fallback variable `org-fb-vars' to
store, use and restore variables if needed.
(org-fill-paragraph): Ignore `orgstruct++-mode' filling
variables when needed.
(org-auto-fill-function, org-indent-line-function): Ditto.
* org-macs.el (orgstruct++-ignore-org-filling): New macro.
Additionally, replace one
(or (org-mode-p) (derived-mode-p 'org-mode))
with
(derived-mode-p 'org-mode)
cause that is reflexive anyway (returns true, if the current mode is
org-mode).
Delete one check testing for org-mode or org derived mode
Also remove blank lines before the ";;; org*el ends here" declarations.
Having a "Version" header forced us to update every file when releasing a
new version of Org; it also forced us to update every file when merging Org
with Emacs trunk, thus cluttering the diffs between the previously merged
version and the new one with useless information.
Glenn Morris suggested this in emacs-devel:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2011-08/msg00322.html
* org-macs.el (org-make-parameter-alist): New function. Turn flat list
of alternating symbol names and values into an alist with symbol name
in car and value in cdr.
* org-macs.el (org-with-gensyms): New macro. Wrap let-binding of
SYMBOLS to new uninterned symbols around BODY.
Use this macro to compose macros that need to bind their own symbols
in expansion. It expands into a let-binding of all symbols in SYMBOLS
to new uninterned symbols that cannot collide with symbols used in the
target macro's expansion.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-with-limited-levels): some functions, like
`org-back-to-heading', being deeply based on outline-mode, still
refer to `outline-regexp' instead of `org-outline-regexp'.
This commit introduce `org-loop-over-siblings-within-active-region-p'
as a new defcustom that you can turn on (`non-nil') to allow commands
to loop over siblings in the active region.
The list of commands is this:
- org-archive-subtree
- org-archive-to-archive-sibling
- org-toggle-archive-tag
- org-deadline
- org-schedule
When `org-loop-over-siblings-within-active-region-p' is `non-nil' and
you run one of the command above on a region containing several headlines,
then Org will apply the command to each headline.
This can be particularily useful for archiving several headlines, or to
add a deadline or schedule several entries.
* org.el (org-loop-over-siblings-within-active-region-p): New
defcustom so that `org-loop-over-siblings-in-active-region'
can be turned on and off.
(org-deadline, org-schedule): Use the new macro.
* org-macs.el (org-loop-over-siblings-in-active-region): New
macro to let some commands act upon several siblings in the
active region.
* org-archive.el (org-archive-subtree)
(org-archive-to-archive-sibling, org-toggle-archive-tag): Use
`org-loop-over-siblings-in-active-region'.
Use `org-outline-regexp' instead or `outline-regexp'. Also use the
new defconst `org-outline-regexp-bol' to match `org-outline-regexp'
at the beginning of line.
* org.el (org-outline-regexp-bol): New defconst.
(org-outline-level, org-set-font-lock-defaults, org-cycle)
(org-overview, org-content, org-flag-drawer)
(org-first-headline-recenter, org-insert-todo-heading)

(org-yank-generic, org-yank-folding-would-swallow-text)
(org-first-sibling-p, org-goto-sibling)
(org-goto-first-child, org-show-entry): Use
`org-outline-regexp' and `org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-remember.el (org-remember-handler): Use
`org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-mouse.el (org-mouse-match-todo-keyword, org-mode-hook)
(org-mouse-move-tree, org-mouse-transform-to-outline): Use
`org-outline-regexp' and `org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-macs.el (org-with-limited-levels)
(org-get-limited-outline-regexp): Use `org-outline-regexp'.
* org-indent.el (org-indent-outline-re)
(org-indent-refresh-section, org-indent-refresh-to): Use
`org-outline-regexp' and `org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-html.el (org-export-as-html): Use
`org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-footnote.el (org-footnote-at-definition-p)
(org-footnote-normalize): Use `org-outline-regexp' and
`org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-exp.el (org-export-preprocess-string): Don't redefine
`outline-regexp'.
* org-docbook.el (org-export-as-docbook): Use
`org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-colview.el (org-columns, org-columns-compute): Use
`org-outline-regexp' and `org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-colview-xemacs.el (org-columns, org-columns-compute):
Use `org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-clock.el (org-clock-insert-selection-line)

Use `org-outline-regexp' and `org-outline-regexp-bol'.
* org-ascii.el (org-export-as-ascii)
(org-export-ascii-push-links): Use `org-outline-regexp' and
`org-outline-regexp-bol'.

* org-agenda.el (org-agenda, org-search-view)
(org-agenda-list-stuck-projects, org-agenda-get-timestamps)
(org-agenda-get-progress, org-agenda-get-blocks): Use
`org-outline-regexp' and `org-outline-regexp-bol'.
This reverts commit 5a2eec3207.
The replacement of `buffer-substring-filters' by
`filter-buffer-substring-functions' requires some rewriting
of functions like `org-indent-remove-properties-from-string'.
* install/git/org-mode/lisp/org-table.el
(org-table-time-seconds-to-string): use `org-format-seconds'
instead of `format-seconds'.
* install/git/org-mode/lisp/org-macs.el (org-format-seconds):
handle case where `format-seconds' does not exist.
This uses the macro David Maus suggests. In particular, it doesn't
use the (let (pc-mode ...)) binding, which, as David states, could
cause leakage if the pc-mode variable is used within ,@body.

* org.el (org-todo): Bugfix: use `org-with-wide-buffer' to
check against headings outside of a narrowed buffer.
* org-macs.el (org-with-wide-buffer): New macro.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-with-point-at): Store evaluated version of pom. This
fixes a potential bug when using (org-with-point-at (func) …), where (func)
would be evaluated multiple times, therefore might return different results
if a marker was returned and different each time.
Signed-off-by: Julien Danjou <julien@danjou.info>

utf8 characters in Emacs 22. Moved and renamed from org-protocol.el.

function.

The problem was here that the value of the property is the string
"nil", which is of course not nil.
This patches introduces a special case to interpret "nil" as nil.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-rm-props): Add org-emphasis to the properties
that must be removed.
* lisp/org.el (org-do-emphasis-faces): Add org-emphasis property to
items that have emphasis done wit font-lock.
(org-fontify-entities): Do not do anything in commented lines.
(org-unfontify-region): Decompose the region as well, because we do
composition during font-lock.
(org-raise-scripts): Do nothing inside an emphasis string.
