* lisp/org.el (org-switchb): Renamed from `org-iswitchb'. Improve
docstring.
(org-iswitchb): New alias.
(org-ido-switchb): Make alias point to `org-switchb'.
* lisp/org.el (org-time-string-to-absolute): Ignore cyclic repeater
when displaying items on todays agenda date.
Ignore the cyclic repeater when displaying items on today's agenda
date. If you have a weekly task and miss the date the agenda view
will show more than a week late now instead of resetting on the
cyclic repeating date. This makes it much more obvious when you
missed a repeating task after the repeater.
* lisp/org-html.el (org-export-html-preprocess): Call org-format-latex,
possibly with a protect-only argument.
* lisp/org.el (org-format-latex): New argument PROTECT-ONLY.
with the switch #+OPTIONS: LaTeX:verbatim ,
LaTeX code will be exported verbatim to HTML, so that jsmath can grab
and convert it.
Proposed by Christian Moe.
* lisp/org-macs.el (org-not-nil): Return the value if not interpreted
as nil.
* lisp/org.el (org-entry-get):
(org-entry-get-with-inheritance): Interpret the value "nil"
as nil for properties.

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.el (org-timestamp-change): New optional argument UPDOWN.
Use this to identify calls from org-timestamp-up/down, so that we can
skip by rounding minutes in this case.
(org-timestamp-up):
(org-timestamp-down):
(org-timestamp-up-day):
(org-timestamp-down-day): Call org-timestamp-change with the
updown argument.
This function used to look only if there was a prefix argument in the
current interactive call. Now we have an explicit marker indicating
that the function is called from the updown commands.
* lisp/org-agenda.el (org-agenda-action): Make `c' key call org-capture.
* lisp/org-capture.el: New file.
* lisp/org-compat.el (org-get-x-clipboard): Function moved here from
remember.el.
* lisp/org-mks.el: New file
* lisp/org.el (org-set-regexps-and-options): Allow statistic cookies as
part of complex headlines.
(org-find-olp): New argument THIS-BUFFER. When set, assume that the
OLP does not contain a file name.
* lisp/org.el (org-mode): Set `comment-start' instead of changing the
syntax of the `#' character.

(org-agenda-get-scheduled):
* lisp/org.el (org-time-string-to-seconds):
For deadline and scheduled agenda display ignore the cyclic repeater
when calculating how many days late the task is. If you have a weekly
task and miss the date the agenda view will show more than a week late
now instead of resetting on the cyclic repeating date. This makes it
much more obvious when you missed a repeating task after the repeater.
Thanks to Bernt Hansen for this patch.
* org.el (org-raise-scripts): Do not fontify sub/superscripts of text

This patch adds a modification hook to remove inline-image overlays if
the underlying text is modified. This prevents blind editing of text
behind images.

What was going on here is that the regular expression for matching
american-style dates was wrong. It was looking for month numbers in
the second field and day numbers in the first field - wrong, of
course.
* 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.

* lisp/org-table.el (org-table-align): Handle raised text with
invisible characters.
* lisp/org.el (org-script-display): Add raise properties for tables.
(org-raise-scripts): Handle raising differently inside tables.
Pretty display of subscripts and superscripts no longer messes up
table alignment. This is achieved by two things:
1. Inside tables, the raised characters are not made smaller, they
remains at the same size. Instead they are raise/lowered more, by
a full half character height to still be clearly readable as
subscript or superscript.
2. The invisible characters are taken into account when computing the
field width.
* lisp/org.el (org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree): New option.

The new function `org-agenda-file-p' checks if a given file is an org
agenda file. Such a function is very useful in hooks, for example if
you want to export agenda files automatically when saving:
(defun th-org-mode-init ()
;; Update appointments and export to iCalendar when saving.
(when (org-agenda-file-p)
(add-hook 'after-save-hook 'th-org-agenda-to-appt t t)
(add-hook 'after-save-hook 'org-export-icalendar-this-file t t)))
(add-hook 'org-agenda-mode-hook 'th-org-agenda-mode-init)
Org-refile-cache fails when org-refile-use-outline-path is set to file.
Specifically, org-refile-cache-check-set throws a markerp error when it
encounters file targets, since they have nil instead a marker object.
This patch applies the test only to targets with markers (i.e.,
headings).
The function org-get-refile-targets was building org-refile-cache even
if org-refile-use-cache was set to nil. This caused every refile
attempt to call org-refile-cache-clear and to produce the message
"Refile cache has been cleared."

This patch fixes the problem first reported by Tassilo Horn in
[mid:87y6fhxc47.fsf@thinkpad.tsdh.de]. Problem was that
`org-refile-cache-get' returned an invalid refile target table after
the refile cache was cleared.

This behavior is now parallel to the treatment of outline nodes.
This commit also introduces another change. When an outline node or a
plain list item is folded by outline and contains hidden children,
M-left/right will refuse to act on this item. You must either open
the tree, or use the subtree commands M-S-left and M-S-right.
Based on a patch by Matti De Craene, but significantly modified after
a discussion involving Bernt Hansen and others.
