|
||
|
||
* Version 9.3
|
||
|
||
** Incompatible change
|
||
|
||
*** ~:file~ header argument no longer assume "file" ~:results~
|
||
|
||
The "file" ~:results~ value is now mandatory for a code block
|
||
returning a link to a file. The ~:file~ or ~:file-ext~ header
|
||
arguments no longer imply a "file" result is expected.
|
||
|
||
*** Plain numbers are hours in Column View mode
|
||
|
||
See [[git:3367ac9457]] for details.
|
||
|
||
** New features
|
||
*** Babel
|
||
**** Add LaTeX output support in PlantUML
|
||
*** iCalendar export respects a =CLASS= property
|
||
|
||
Set the =CLASS= property on an entry to specify a visibility class for
|
||
that entry only during iCalendar export. The property can be set to
|
||
anything the calendar server supports. The iCalendar standard defines
|
||
the values =PUBLIC=, =CONFIDENTIAL=, =PRIVATE=, which can be
|
||
interpreted as publicly visable, accessible to a specific group, and
|
||
private respectively.
|
||
|
||
This property can be inherited during iCalendar export, depending on
|
||
the value of ~org-use-property-inheritance~.
|
||
|
||
*** New parameter for =INCLUDE= keyword
|
||
Add =:coding CODING-SYSTEM= to include files using a different coding
|
||
system than the main Org document. For example:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
,#+INCLUDE: "myfile.cmd" src cmd :coding cp850-dos
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
*** New values in clock tables' step: =month= and =year=
|
||
*** New cell movement functions in tables
|
||
~S-<UP>~, ~S-<DOWN>~, ~S-<RIGHT>~, and ~S-<LEFT>~ now move cells in
|
||
the corresponding direction by swapping with the adjacent cell.
|
||
|
||
** New functions
|
||
*** ~org-table-cell-up~
|
||
*** ~org-table-cell-down~
|
||
*** ~org-table-cell-left~
|
||
*** ~org-table-cell-right~
|
||
** Removed functions
|
||
*** ~org-babel-set-current-result-hash~
|
||
|
||
It was unused throughout the code base.
|
||
|
||
** Miscellaneous
|
||
*** Org Table reads numbers starting with 0 as strings
|
||
* Version 9.2
|
||
** Incompatible changes
|
||
*** Removal of OrgStruct mode mode and radio lists
|
||
|
||
OrgStruct minor mode and radio lists mechanism (~org-list-send-list~
|
||
and ~org-list-radio-lists-templates~) are removed from the code base.
|
||
|
||
Note that only radio /lists/ have been removed, not radio tables.
|
||
|
||
If you want to manipulate lists like in Org in other modes, we suggest
|
||
to use orgalist.el, which you can install from GNU ELPA.
|
||
|
||
If you want to use Org folding outside of Org buffers, you can have a
|
||
look at the outshine package in the MELPA repository.
|
||
|
||
*** Change in the structure template expansion
|
||
|
||
Org 9.2 comes with a new template expansion mechanism, combining
|
||
~org-insert-structure-template~ bound to ~C-c C-,~.
|
||
|
||
If you customized the ~org-structure-template-alist~ option manually,
|
||
you probably need to udpate it, see the docstring for accepted values.
|
||
|
||
If you prefer using previous patterns, e.g. =<s=, you can activate
|
||
them again by requiring Org Tempo library:
|
||
|
||
: (require 'org-tempo)
|
||
|
||
or add it to ~org-modules~.
|
||
|
||
If you need complex templates, look at the ~tempo-define-template~
|
||
function or at solutions like Yasnippet.
|
||
|
||
*** Change to Noweb expansion
|
||
|
||
Expansion check =:noweb-ref= only if no matching named block is found
|
||
in the buffer. As a consequence, any =:noweb-ref= value matching the
|
||
name of a source block in the buffer is ignored. A simple fix is to
|
||
give every concerned source-block, including the named one, a new,
|
||
unique, Noweb reference.
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+NAME: foo
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||
1
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb-ref foo
|
||
2
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb yes
|
||
<<foo>>
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
should become
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+NAME: foo
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb-ref bar
|
||
1
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb-ref bar
|
||
2
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb yes
|
||
<<bar>>
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** Default/accepted values of ~org-calendar-to-agenda-key~
|
||
|
||
The default value and accepted value of ~org-calendar-to-agenda-key~
|
||
changed. This is an excerpt of the new docstring:
|
||
|
||
: When set to ‘default’, bind the function to ‘c’, but only if it is
|
||
: available in the Calendar keymap. This is the default choice because
|
||
: ‘c’ can then be used to switch back and forth between agenda and calendar.
|
||
:
|
||
: When nil, ‘org-calendar-goto-agenda’ is not bound to any key.
|
||
|
||
Check the full docstring for more.
|
||
|
||
*** Change the signature of the ~org-set-effort~ function
|
||
|
||
Here is the new docstring:
|
||
|
||
: (org-set-effort &optional INCREMENT VALUE)
|
||
:
|
||
: Set the effort property of the current entry.
|
||
: If INCREMENT is non-nil, set the property to the next allowed
|
||
: value. Otherwise, if optional argument VALUE is provided, use
|
||
: it. Eventually, prompt for the new value if none of the previous
|
||
: variables is set.
|
||
|
||
*** Placeholders in =(eval ...)= macros are always strings
|
||
|
||
Within =(eval ...)= macros, =$1=-like placeholders are always replaced
|
||
with a string. As a consequence, they must not be enclosed within
|
||
quotes. As an illustration, consider the following, now valid,
|
||
examples:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
,#+macro: join (eval (concat $1 $2))
|
||
,#+macro: sum (eval (+ (string-to-number $1) (string-to-number $2)))
|
||
|
||
{{{join(a,b)}}} => ab
|
||
{{{sum(1,2)}}} => 3
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
However, there is no change in non-eval macros:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
,#+macro: disp argument: $1
|
||
|
||
{{{disp(text)}}} => argument: text
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
*** =align= STARTUP value no longer narrow table columns
|
||
|
||
Columns narrowing (or shrinking) is now dynamic. See [[*Dynamically
|
||
narrow table columns]] for details. In particular, it is decoupled from
|
||
aligning.
|
||
|
||
If you need to automatically shrink columns upon opening an Org
|
||
document, use =shrink= value instead, or in addition to align:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
,#+STARTUP: align shrink
|
||
#+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-get-tags~ meaning change
|
||
|
||
Function ~org-get-tags~ used to return local tags to the current
|
||
headline. It now returns all the inherited tags in addition to the
|
||
local tags. In order to get the old behaviour back, you can use:
|
||
|
||
: (org-get-tags nil t)
|
||
|
||
*** Alphabetic sorting in tables and lists
|
||
|
||
When sorting alphabetically, ~org-table-sort-lines~ and ~org-sort-list~
|
||
now sort according to the locale’s collation rules instead of by
|
||
code-point.
|
||
|
||
*** Change the name of the :tags clocktable option to :match
|
||
|
||
The =:match= (renamed from =:tags=) option allows to limit clock entries
|
||
to those matching a todo-tags matcher.
|
||
|
||
The old =:tags= option can be set to =t= to display a headline's tags in a
|
||
dedicated column.
|
||
|
||
This is consistent with the naming of =org-dblock-write:columnview=
|
||
options, where =:match= is also used as a headlines filter.
|
||
|
||
** New features
|
||
*** Add ~:results link~ support for Babel
|
||
|
||
With this output format, create a link to the file specified in
|
||
~:file~ header argument, without actually writing any result to it:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
,#+begin_src shell :dir "data/tmp" :results link :file "crackzor_1.0.c.gz"
|
||
wget -c "http://ben.akrin.com/crackzor/crackzor_1.0.c.gz"
|
||
,#+end_src
|
||
|
||
,#+results:
|
||
[[file:data/tmp/crackzor_1.0.c.gz]]
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
*** Add ~:session~ support of ob-js for js-comint
|
||
#+begin_src js :session "*Javascript REPL*"
|
||
console.log("stardiviner")
|
||
#+end_src
|
||
*** Add ~:session~ support of ob-js for Indium
|
||
#+begin_src js :session "*JS REPL*"
|
||
console.log("stardiviner")
|
||
#+end_src
|
||
*** Add ~:session~ support of ob-js for skewer-mode
|
||
#+begin_src js :session "*skewer-repl*"
|
||
console.log("stardiviner")
|
||
#+end_src
|
||
*** Add support for links to LaTeX equations in HTML export
|
||
Use MathJax links when enabled (by ~org-html-with-latex~), otherwise
|
||
add a label to the rendered equation.
|
||
*** Org Tempo may used for snippet expansion of structure template.
|
||
See manual and the commentary section in ~org-tempo.el~ for details.
|
||
*** Exclude unnumbered headlines from table of contents
|
||
Set their =UNNUMBERED= property to the special =notoc= value. See
|
||
manual for details.
|
||
*** ~org-archive~ functions update status cookies
|
||
|
||
Archiving headers through ~org-archive-subtree~ and
|
||
~org-archive-to-archive-sibling~ such as the ones listed below:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,* Top [1/2]
|
||
,** DONE Completed
|
||
,** TODO Working
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
Will update the status cookie in the top level header.
|
||
|
||
*** Disable =org-agenda-overriding-header= by setting to empty string
|
||
|
||
The ~org-agenda-overriding-header~ inserted into agenda views can now
|
||
be disabled by setting it to an empty string.
|
||
|
||
*** Dynamically narrow table columns
|
||
|
||
With ~C-c TAB~, it is now possible to narrow a column to the width
|
||
specified by a width cookie in the column, or to 1 character if there
|
||
is no such cookie. The same keybinding expands a narrowed column to
|
||
its previous state.
|
||
|
||
Editing the column automatically expands the whole column to its full
|
||
size.
|
||
|
||
*** =org-columns-summary-types= entries can take an optional COLLECT function
|
||
|
||
You can use this to make collection of a property from an entry
|
||
conditional on another entry. E.g. given this configuration:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||
(defun custom/org-collect-confirmed (property)
|
||
"Return `PROPERTY' for `CONFIRMED' entries"
|
||
(let ((prop (org-entry-get nil property))
|
||
(confirmed (org-entry-get nil "CONFIRMED")))
|
||
(if (and prop (string= "[X]" confirmed))
|
||
prop
|
||
"0")))
|
||
|
||
(setq org-columns-summary-types
|
||
'(("X+" org-columns--summary-sum
|
||
custom/org-collect-confirmed)))
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
You can have a file =bananas.org= containing:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+columns: %ITEM %CONFIRMED %Bananas{+} %Bananas(Confirmed Bananas){X+}
|
||
|
||
,* All shipments
|
||
,** Shipment 1
|
||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||
:CONFIRMED: [X]
|
||
:Bananas: 4
|
||
:END:
|
||
|
||
,** Shipment 2
|
||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||
:CONFIRMED: [ ]
|
||
:BANANAS: 7
|
||
:END:
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
... and when going to the top of that file and entering column view
|
||
you should expect to see something like:
|
||
|
||
| ITEM | CONFIRMED | Bananas | Confirmed Bananas |
|
||
|---------------+-----------+---------+-------------------|
|
||
| All shipments | | 11 | 4 |
|
||
| Shipment 1 | [X] | 4 | 4 |
|
||
| Shipment 2 | [ ] | 7 | 7 |
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
,#+STARTUP: shrink
|
||
#+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
*** Allow to filter by tags/property when capturing colview
|
||
|
||
You can now use =:match= to filter entries using a todo/tags/properties
|
||
matcher.
|
||
|
||
*** Add support for Oracle's database alias in Babel blocks
|
||
=ob-sql= library already support running SQL blocks against an Oracle
|
||
database using ~sqlplus~. Now it's possible to use alias names
|
||
defined in =TNSNAMES= file instead of specifying full connection
|
||
parameters. See example bellow.
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
you can use the previous full connection parameters
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine oracle :dbuser me :dbpassword my_insecure_password :database my_db_name :dbhost my_db_host :dbport 1521
|
||
select sysdate from dual;
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
or the alias defined in your TNSNAMES file
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine oracle :dbuser me :dbpassword my_insecure_password :database my_tns_alias
|
||
select sysdate from dual;
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock~ toggle agenda restriction at point
|
||
|
||
You can set an agenda restriction lock with =C-x C-x <= or with =<= at the
|
||
beginning of a headline when using Org speed commands. Now, if there
|
||
is already a restriction at point, hitting =<= again (or =C-x C-x <=) will
|
||
remove it.
|
||
|
||
** New commands and functions
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-insert-structure-template~
|
||
|
||
This function can be used to wrap existing text of Org elements in
|
||
a #+BEGIN_FOO/#+END_FOO block. Bound to C-c C-x w by default.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-export-excluded-from-toc-p~
|
||
|
||
See docstring for details.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-timestamp-to-time~
|
||
*** ~org-timestamp-from-string~
|
||
*** ~org-timestamp-from-time~
|
||
*** ~org-attach-dired-to-subtree~
|
||
|
||
See docstring for details.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-toggle-narrow-to-subtree~
|
||
|
||
Toggle the narrowing state of the buffer: when in a narrowed state,
|
||
widen, otherwise call ~org-narrow-to-subtree~ to narrow.
|
||
|
||
This is attached to the "s" speed command, so that hitting "s" twice
|
||
will go back to the widen state.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-browse-news~
|
||
|
||
Browse https://orgmode.org/Changes.html to let users read informations
|
||
about the last major release.
|
||
|
||
There is a new menu entry for this in the "Documentation" menu item.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-info-find-node~
|
||
|
||
From an Org file or an agenda switch to a suitable info page depending
|
||
on the context.
|
||
|
||
The function is bound to =C-c C-x I=.
|
||
|
||
** Removed commands and functions
|
||
*** ~org-outline-overlay-data~
|
||
Use ~org-save-outline-visibility~ instead.
|
||
*** ~org-set-outline-overlay-data~
|
||
Use ~org-save-outline-visibility~ instead.
|
||
*** ~org-get-string-indentation~
|
||
It was not used throughout the code base.
|
||
*** ~org-fix-indentation~
|
||
It was not used throughout code base.
|
||
*** ~org-context-p~
|
||
Use ~org-element-at-point~ instead.
|
||
*** ~org-preserve-lc~
|
||
It is no longer used in the code base.
|
||
*** ~org-try-structure-completion~
|
||
Org Tempo may be used as a replacement. See details above.
|
||
** Removed options
|
||
|
||
*** org-babel-use-quick-and-dirty-noweb-expansion
|
||
|
||
See [[*Change to Noweb expansion][Change to Noweb expansion]] for explanations.
|
||
|
||
** Miscellaneous
|
||
|
||
*** New default value for ~org-texinfo-table-scientific-notation~
|
||
|
||
It is now nil, which means numbers in scientific notation are not
|
||
handled specially by default.
|
||
|
||
*** New default value for ~org-latex-table-scientific-notation~
|
||
|
||
It is now nil, which means numbers in scientific notation are not
|
||
handled specially by default.
|
||
|
||
*** New face: ~org-upcoming-distant-deadline~
|
||
|
||
It is meant to be used as the face for distant deadlines, see
|
||
~org-agenda-deadline-faces~
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-paste-subtree~ no longer breaks sections
|
||
|
||
Unless point is at the beginning of a headline, ~org-paste-subtree~
|
||
now pastes the tree before the next visible headline. If you need to
|
||
break the section, use ~org-yank~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-table-insert-column~ inserts a column to the right
|
||
|
||
It used to insert it on the left. With this change,
|
||
~org-table-insert-column~ and ~org-table-delete-column~ are
|
||
reciprocal.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-publish-resolve-external-link~ accepts a new optional argument.
|
||
*** ~org-irc.el~ now supports exporting =irc:= links properly
|
||
|
||
Previously, irc links were exported by ~ox-md~ and ~ox-html~ as normal
|
||
file links, which lead to them being broken in web browsers. Now both
|
||
of these exporters will properly export to =irc:= links, which will
|
||
open properly in irc clients from web browsers.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-comment-dwim~ (bound to =M-;=) now comments headings, if point is on a heading
|
||
*** Add support for open source block in window below
|
||
|
||
Set option ~org-src-window-setup~ to ~split-window-below~.
|
||
|
||
*** Alphabetic sorting in headings and tags now uses the locale’s sorting rules
|
||
|
||
When sorting alphabetically, ~org-sort-entries~ and
|
||
~org-tags-sort-function~ now sort according to the locale’s collation
|
||
rules instead of by code-point.
|
||
*** New speed command "k" to kill (cut) the subtree at point
|
||
* Version 9.1
|
||
|
||
** Incompatible changes
|
||
|
||
*** Variables relative to clocksum duration are obsolete
|
||
|
||
~org-time-clocksum-format~, ~org-time-clocksum-use-fractional~ and
|
||
~org-time-clocksum-fractional-format~ are obsolete. If you changed
|
||
them, consider modifying ~org-duration-format~ instead.
|
||
|
||
Variable ~org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations~ is also obsolete.
|
||
Consider setting ~org-duration-units~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-at-timestamp-p~ optional argument accepts different values
|
||
|
||
See docstrings for the allowed values. For backward compatibility,
|
||
~(org-at-timestamp-p t)~ is still supported, but should be updated
|
||
accordingly.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-capture-templates~ no longer accepts S-expressions as file names
|
||
|
||
Since functions are allowed there, a straightforward way to migrate
|
||
is to turn, e.g.,
|
||
|
||
: (file (sexp))
|
||
|
||
into
|
||
|
||
: (file (lambda () (sexp)))
|
||
|
||
*** Deleted contributed packages
|
||
|
||
=org-ebib.el, =org-bullets.el= and =org-mime.el= have been deleted
|
||
from the contrib/ directory.
|
||
|
||
You can now find them here :
|
||
|
||
- https://github.com/joostkremers/ebib
|
||
- https://github.com/sabof/org-bullets
|
||
- https://github.com/org-mime/org-mime
|
||
|
||
*** Change ~org-texinfo-classes~ value
|
||
The value cannot support functions to create sectioning commands
|
||
anymore. Also, the sectioning commands should include commands for
|
||
appendices. See the docstring for more information.
|
||
*** Removal of ~:sitemap-sans-extension~
|
||
|
||
The publishing property is no longer recognized, as a consequence of
|
||
changes to site-map generation.
|
||
|
||
You can get the same functionality by setting ~:sitemap-format-entry~
|
||
to the following
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
|
||
(lambda (entry style project)
|
||
(cond ((not (directory-name-p entry))
|
||
(format "[[file:%s][%s]]"
|
||
(file-name-sans-extension entry)
|
||
(org-publish-find-title entry project)))
|
||
((eq style 'tree) (file-name-nondirectory (directory-file-name entry)))
|
||
(t entry)))
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** Change signature for ~:sitemap-function~
|
||
~:sitemap-function~ now expects to be called with two arguments. See
|
||
~org-publish-project-alist~ for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Change signature for some properties in ~org-list-to-generic~
|
||
~:istart~, ~:icount~, ~:iend~ and ~:isep~ now expect the type of the
|
||
list as their first argument.
|
||
|
||
*** Change signature for ~org-get-repeater~
|
||
The optional argument is now a string to extract the repeater from.
|
||
See docstring for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Change signature for ~org-time-string-to-time~
|
||
See docstring for changes.
|
||
|
||
*** Change order of items in ~org-agenda-time-grid~
|
||
~org-agenda-time-grid~ gained an extra item to allow users to customize
|
||
the string displayed after times in the agenda. See docstring for
|
||
details.
|
||
|
||
*** ~tags-todo~ custom searches now include DONE keywords
|
||
|
||
Use "/!" markup when filtering TODO keywords to get only not-done TODO
|
||
keywords.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-split-string~ returns ~("")~ when called on an empty string
|
||
It used to return nil.
|
||
*** Removal of =ob-scala.el=
|
||
|
||
See [[https://github.com/ensime/emacs-scala-mode/issues/114][this github issue]].
|
||
|
||
You can use =ob-scala.el= as packaged in scala-mode, available from the
|
||
MELPA repository.
|
||
|
||
** New features
|
||
*** iCalendar export uses inheritance for TIMEZONE and LOCATION properties
|
||
Both these properties can be inherited during iCalendar export,
|
||
depending on the value of ~org-use-property-inheritance~.
|
||
*** iCalendar export respects a TIMEZONE property
|
||
Set the TIMEZONE property on an entry to specify a time zone for that
|
||
entry only during iCalendar export. The property value should be
|
||
specified as in "Europe/London".
|
||
*** ~org-attach~ can move directory contents
|
||
When setting a new directory for an entry, org-attach offers to move
|
||
files over from the old directory. Using a prefix arg will reset the
|
||
directory to old, ID based one.
|
||
*** New Org duration library
|
||
This new library implements tools to read and print time durations in
|
||
various formats (e.g., "H:MM", or "1d 2h 3min"...).
|
||
|
||
See ~org-duration-to-minutes~ and ~org-duration-from-minutes~
|
||
docstrings.
|
||
|
||
*** Agenda
|
||
**** New variable : ~org-agenda-show-future-repeats~
|
||
**** New variable : ~org-agenda-prefer-last-repeat~
|
||
**** New variable : ~org-deadline-past-days~
|
||
See docstring for details.
|
||
**** Binding C-c C-x < for ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock-from-agenda~
|
||
**** New auto-align default setting for =org-agenda-tags-column=
|
||
=org-agenda-tags-column= can now be set to =auto=, which will
|
||
automatically align tags to the right edge of the window. This is now
|
||
the default setting.
|
||
*** New value for ~org-publish-sitemap-sort-folders~
|
||
|
||
The new ~ignore~ value effectively allows toggling inclusion of
|
||
directories in published site-maps.
|
||
|
||
*** Babel
|
||
|
||
**** Scheme: support for tables
|
||
**** Scheme: new variable: ~org-babel-scheme-null-to~
|
||
|
||
This new custom option allows you to use an empty list or null symbol to
|
||
format the table output, initially assigned to ~hlines~.
|
||
|
||
**** Scheme: new header ~:prologue~
|
||
|
||
A new block code header has been created for Org Babel that enables
|
||
developers to prepend code to the scheme block being processed.
|
||
|
||
Multiple ~:prologue~ headers can be added each of them using a string
|
||
with the content to be added.
|
||
|
||
The scheme blocks are prepared by surrounding the code in the block
|
||
with a let form. The content of the ~:prologue~ headers are prepended
|
||
before this let form.
|
||
|
||
**** Support for hledger accounting reports added
|
||
**** Clojure: new setting ~org-babel-clojure-sync-nrepl-timeout~
|
||
|
||
Creation of a new setting to specify the Cider timeout. By setting
|
||
the =org-babel-clojure-sync-nrepl-timeout= setting option. The value
|
||
is in seconds and if set to =nil= then no timeout will occur.
|
||
**** Clojure: new header ~:show-process~
|
||
|
||
A new block code header has been created for Org Babel that enables
|
||
developers to output the process of an ongoing process into a new
|
||
window/buffer.
|
||
|
||
You can tell Org Babel to output the process of a running code block.
|
||
|
||
To show that output you only have to specify the =:show-process=
|
||
option in the code block's header like this:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC clojure :results output :show-process t
|
||
(dotimes [n 10]
|
||
(println n ".")
|
||
(Thread/sleep 500))
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
If =:show-process= is specified that way, then when you will run the
|
||
code using =C-c C-c= a new window will open in Emacs. Everything that
|
||
is output by the REPL will immediately be added to that new window.
|
||
|
||
When the processing of the code is finished, then the window and its
|
||
buffer will be closed and the results will be reported in the
|
||
=#+RESULTS= section.
|
||
|
||
Note that the =:results= parameter's behavior is *not* changed. If
|
||
=silent= is specified, then no result will be displayed. If =output=
|
||
is specified then all the output from the window will appears in the
|
||
results section. If =value= is specified, then only the last returned
|
||
value of the code will be displayed in the results section.
|
||
|
||
**** Maxima: new headers ~:prologue~ and ~:epilogue~
|
||
Babel options ~:prologue~ and ~:epilogue~ have been implemented for
|
||
Maxima source blocks which prepend and append, respectively, the given
|
||
code strings. This can be useful for specifying formatting settings
|
||
which would add clutter to exported code. For instance, you can use
|
||
this ~:prologue "fpprintprec: 2; linel: 50;"~ for presenting Maxima
|
||
results in a beamer presentation.
|
||
**** PlantUML: add support for header arguments
|
||
|
||
[[http://plantuml.com/][Plantuml]] source blocks now support the [[https://orgmode.org/manual/prologue.html#prologue][~:prologue~]], [[https://orgmode.org/manual/epilogue.html#epilogue][~:epilogue~]] and
|
||
[[https://orgmode.org/manual/var.html#var][~:var~]] header arguments.
|
||
|
||
**** SQL: new engine added ~sqsh~
|
||
|
||
A new engine was added to support ~sqsh~ command line utility for use
|
||
against Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase SQL server.
|
||
|
||
More information on ~sqsh~ can be found here: [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/sqsh/][sourceforge/sqsh]]
|
||
|
||
To use ~sqsh~ in an *sql* =SRC_BLK= set the =:engine= like this:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine sqsh :dbhost my_host :dbuser master :dbpassword pass :database support
|
||
Select * From Users
|
||
Where clue > 0
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
**** SQL: new engine added =vertica=
|
||
|
||
A new engine was added to support vsql command line utility for use
|
||
against HP Vertica.
|
||
|
||
More information on =vsql= can be found here: [[https://my.vertica.com/docs/7.2.x/HTML/index.htm#Authoring/ConnectingToHPVertica/vsql/UsingVsql.htm][my.vertica.com]]
|
||
|
||
To use =vertica= in an sql =SRC_BLK= set the =:engine= like this:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine vertica :dbhost my_host :dbuser dbadmin :dbpassword pw :database vmart
|
||
SELECT * FROM nodes;
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
#+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
**** C++: New header ~:namespaces~
|
||
|
||
The new ~:namespaces~ export option can be used to specify namespaces
|
||
to be used within a C++ org source block. Its usage is similar to
|
||
~:includes~, in that it can accept multiple, space-separated
|
||
namespaces to use. This header is equivalent to adding ~using
|
||
namespace <name>;~ in the source block. Here is a "Hello World" in C++
|
||
using ~:namespaces~:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC C++ :results output :namespaces std :includes <iostream>
|
||
cout << "Hello World" << endl;
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
**** Support for Vala language
|
||
|
||
[[https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Vala][Vala]] language blocks support two special header arguments:
|
||
|
||
- ~:flags~ passes arguments to the compiler
|
||
- ~:cmdline~ passes commandline arguments to the generated executable
|
||
|
||
Support for [[https://orgmode.org/manual/var.html#var][~:var~]] does not exist yet, also there is no [[https://orgmode.org/manual/session.html#session][~:session~]]
|
||
support because Vala is a compiled language.
|
||
|
||
The Vala compiler binary can be changed via the ~defcustom~
|
||
~org-babel-vala-compiler~.
|
||
|
||
*** New ~function~ scope argument for the Clock Table
|
||
Added a nullary function that returns a list of files as a possible
|
||
argument for the scope of the clock table.
|
||
*** Export
|
||
**** Implement vernacular table of contents in Markdown exporter
|
||
Global table of contents are generated using vanilla Markdown syntax
|
||
instead of HTML. Also #+TOC keyword, including local table of
|
||
contents, are now supported.
|
||
**** Add Slovenian translations
|
||
**** Implement ~org-export-insert-image-links~
|
||
This new function is meant to be used in back-ends supporting images
|
||
as descriptions of links, a.k.a. image links. See its docstring for
|
||
details.
|
||
**** New macro : ~{{{n}}}~
|
||
This macro creates and increment multiple counters in a document. See
|
||
manual for details.
|
||
**** Add global macros through ~org-export-global-macros~
|
||
With this variable, one can define macros available for all documents.
|
||
**** New keyword ~#+EXPORT_FILE_NAME~
|
||
Similarly to ~:EXPORT_FILE_NAME:~ property, this keyword allows the
|
||
user to specify the name of the output file upon exporting the
|
||
document. This also has an effect on publishing.
|
||
**** Horizontal rules are no longer ignored in LaTeX table math mode
|
||
**** Use ~compilation-mode~ for compilation output
|
||
**** Plain lists accept a new ~:separator~ attribute in Texinfo
|
||
|
||
The new ~:separator~ attribute splits a tag from a description list
|
||
item into multiple parts. This allows to have two-column tables with
|
||
multiple entries in the first column. See manual for more details.
|
||
|
||
**** ~latex-environment~ elements support ~caption~ keywords for LaTeX export
|
||
*** ~org-edit-special~ can edit LaTeX environments
|
||
|
||
Using ~C-c '~ on a LaTeX environment opens a sub-editing buffer. By
|
||
default, major mode in that buffer is ~latex-mode~, but it can be
|
||
changed by configuring ~org-src-lang-modes~.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-list-to-generic~ includes a new property: ~:ifmt~
|
||
~:ifmt~ is a function to be called on the body of each item. See
|
||
~org-list-to-generic~ documentation for details.
|
||
|
||
*** New variable : ~org-bibtex-headline-format-function~
|
||
This allow to use a different title than entry title.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-attach~ supports attaching files from URLs
|
||
|
||
Using ~C-c C-a u~ prompts for a URL pointing to a file to be attached
|
||
to the document.
|
||
|
||
*** New option for ~org-refile-use-outline-path~
|
||
~org-refile-use-outline-path~ now supports the setting ~buffer-name~,
|
||
which causes refile targets to be prefixed with the buffer’s
|
||
name. This is particularly useful when used in conjunction with
|
||
~uniquify.el~.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-file-contents~ now allows the FILE argument to be a URL.
|
||
This allows ~#+SETUPFILE:~ to accept a URL instead of a local file
|
||
path. The URL contents are auto-downloaded and saved to a temporary
|
||
cache ~org--file-cache~. A new optional argument ~NOCACHE~ is added
|
||
to ~org-file-contents~.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-mode-restart~ now resets the newly added ~org--file-cache~.
|
||
Using ~C-c C-c~ on any keyword (like ~#+SETUPFILE~) will reset the
|
||
that file cache.
|
||
|
||
*** New option : ~org-table-duration-hour-zero-padding~
|
||
This variable allow computed durations in tables to be zero-padded.
|
||
|
||
*** New mode switch for table formulas : =U=
|
||
This mode omits seconds in durations.
|
||
|
||
** Removed functions
|
||
|
||
*** Org Timeline
|
||
|
||
This feature has been removed. Use a custom agenda view, possibly
|
||
narrowed to current buffer to achieve a similar functionality.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches~ is obsolete
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-agenda-skip-subtree-when-regexp-matches~ is obsolete
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches-in-subtree~ is obsolete
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-minutes-to-clocksum-string~ is obsolete
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-duration-from-minutes~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-hh:mm-string-to-minutes~ is obsolete
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-duration-to-minutes~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-duration-string-to-minutes~ is obsolete
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-duration-to-minutes~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-gnus-nnimap-cached-article-number~ is removed.
|
||
|
||
This function relied on ~nnimap-group-overview-filename~, which was
|
||
removed from Gnus circa September 2010.
|
||
|
||
** Removed options
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-agenda-repeating-timestamp-show-all~ is removed.
|
||
|
||
For an equivalent to a ~nil~ value, set
|
||
~org-agenda-show-future-repeats~ to nil and
|
||
~org-agenda-prefer-last-repeat~ to ~t~.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-gnus-nnimap-query-article-no-from-file~ is removed.
|
||
|
||
This variable has no effect, as it was relying on a function that was
|
||
removed from Gnus circa September 2010.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-usenet-links-prefer-google~ is obsolete.
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-gnus-prefer-web-links~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-publish-sitemap-file-entry-format~ is deprecated
|
||
|
||
One can provide new ~:sitemap-format-entry~ property for a function
|
||
equivalent to the removed format string.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-enable-table-editor~ is removed.
|
||
|
||
Setting it to a ~nil~ value broke some other features (e.g., speed
|
||
keys).
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-export-use-babel~ cannot be set to ~inline-only~
|
||
|
||
The variable is now a boolean.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-texinfo-def-table-markup~ is obsolete
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-texinfo-table-default-markup~ instead.
|
||
|
||
** New functions
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-publish-find-property~
|
||
|
||
This function can be used as a tool to format entries in a site-map,
|
||
in addition to ~org-publish-find-title~ and ~org-publish-find-date~.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-list-to-org~
|
||
|
||
It is the reciprocal of ~org-list-to-lisp~, which see.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock-from-agenda~
|
||
|
||
Call ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock~ from the agenda.
|
||
|
||
** Miscellaneous
|
||
|
||
*** The Library of Babel now on Worg
|
||
|
||
The library-of-babel.org used to be accessible from the =doc/=
|
||
directory, distributed with Org’s core. It is now accessible
|
||
from the Worg community-driven documentation [[https://orgmode.org/worg/library-of-babel.html][here]].
|
||
|
||
If you want to contribute to it, please see [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html][how to contribute]].
|
||
|
||
*** Allow multiple columns view
|
||
|
||
Columns view is not limited to a single buffer anymore.
|
||
*** Org Attach obeys ~dired-dwim-target~
|
||
|
||
When a Dired buffer is opened next to the Org document being edited,
|
||
the prompt for file to attach can start in the Dired buffer's
|
||
directory if `dired-dwim-target' in non-nil.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-fill-paragraph~ can now fill a whole region
|
||
*** More specific anniversary descriptions
|
||
|
||
Anniversary descriptions (used in the agenda view, for instance)
|
||
include the point in time, when the anniversary appears. This is,
|
||
in its most general form, just the date of the anniversary. Or
|
||
more specific terms, like "today", "tomorrow" or "in n days" are
|
||
used to describe the time span.
|
||
|
||
This feature allows to automatically change the description of an
|
||
anniversary, depending on if it occurs in the next few days or
|
||
far away in the future.
|
||
|
||
*** Computed dates in tables appear as inactive time stamps
|
||
|
||
*** Save point before opening a file with an unknown search option
|
||
|
||
When following a file link with a search option (e.g., =::#custom-id=)
|
||
that doesn't exist in the target file, save position before raising an
|
||
error. As a consequence, it is possible to jump back to the original
|
||
document with ~org-mark-ring-goto~ (default binding =C-c &=).
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-get-heading~ accepts two more optional arguments
|
||
|
||
See docstring for details.
|
||
|
||
*** New option ~org-babel-uppercase-example-markers~
|
||
|
||
This variable is a ~defcustom~ and replaces the variable
|
||
~org-babel-capitalize-example-region-markers~, which is a ~defvar~ and
|
||
is now obsolete.
|
||
*** =INCLUDE= keywords in commented trees are now ignored.
|
||
*** Default value for ~org-texinfo-text-markup-alist~ changed.
|
||
|
||
Now ~=...=~ markup uses ~@samp{}~ instead of ~@verb{}~. You can use
|
||
~@verb{}~ again by customizing the variable.
|
||
*** Texinfo exports example blocks as ~@example~
|
||
*** Texinfo exports inline source blocks as ~@code{}~
|
||
*** Texinfo default table markup is ~@asis~
|
||
It used to be ~@samp~ but ~@asis~ is neutral and, therefore, more
|
||
suitable as a default value.
|
||
*** Texinfo default process includes ~--no-split~ option
|
||
*** New entities : ~\dollar~ and ~\USD~
|
||
*** Support for date style URLs in =org-protocol://open-source=
|
||
URLs like =https://cool-blog.com/2017/05/20/cool-post/= are
|
||
covered by rewrite rules.
|
||
|
||
*** Add (C) =COMMENT= support to ~org-structure-template-alist~
|
||
|
||
* Version 9.0
|
||
|
||
** Incompatible changes
|
||
|
||
*** Emacs 23 support has been dropped
|
||
|
||
From now on, Org expects at least Emacs 24.3, although Emacs 24.4 or
|
||
above is suggested.
|
||
|
||
*** XEmacs support has been dropped
|
||
|
||
Incomplete compatibility layer with XEmacs has been removed. If you
|
||
want to take over maintenance of this compatibility, please contact
|
||
our mailing list.
|
||
|
||
*** New syntax for export blocks
|
||
|
||
Export blocks are explicitly marked as such at the syntax level to
|
||
disambiguate their parsing from special blocks. The new syntax is
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+BEGIN_EXPORT backend
|
||
...
|
||
,#+END_EXPORT
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
instead of
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+BEGIN_backend
|
||
...
|
||
,#+END_backend
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
As a consequence, =INCLUDE= keywords syntax is modified, e.g.,
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+INCLUDE: "file.org" HTML
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
becomes
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+INCLUDE: "file.org" export html
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
The following function repairs export blocks and =INCLUDE= keywords
|
||
using previous syntax:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||
(defun org-repair-export-blocks ()
|
||
"Repair export blocks and INCLUDE keywords in current buffer."
|
||
(interactive)
|
||
(when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
|
||
(let ((case-fold-search t)
|
||
(back-end-re (regexp-opt
|
||
'("HTML" "ASCII" "LATEX" "ODT" "MARKDOWN" "MD" "ORG"
|
||
"MAN" "BEAMER" "TEXINFO" "GROFF" "KOMA-LETTER")
|
||
t)))
|
||
(org-with-wide-buffer
|
||
(goto-char (point-min))

(forward-char)
|
||
(insert "EXPORT")
|
||
(delete-region (point) (line-end-position)))
|
||
(replace-match "EXPORT \\1" nil nil nil 1))))))
|

(when (and (eq (org-element-type element) 'keyword)
|
||
(string= (org-element-property :key element) "INCLUDE"))
|
||
(replace-match "EXPORT \\1" nil nil nil 1)))))))))
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
Moreover, ~:export-block~ keyword used in ~org-export-define-backend~ and
|
||
~org-export-define-derived-backend~ is no longer used and needs to be
|
||
removed.
|
||
|
||
*** Footnotes
|
||
|
||
**** [1]-like constructs are not valid footnotes
|
||
|
||
Using =[1]= as a footnote was already discouraged in the manual, since
|
||
it introduced too many false-positives in many Org documents. These
|
||
constructs are now unsupported.
|
||
|
||
If you used =[N]= in some of your documents, consider turning them into
|
||
=[fn:N]=.
|
||
|
||
**** /Org Footnote/ library doesn't handle non-Org buffers
|
||
|
||
Commands for footnotes in an Org document no longer try to do
|
||
something in non-Org ones. If you need to have footnotes there,
|
||
consider using the =footnote.el= library, shipped with Emacs.
|
||
|
||
In particular, ~org-footnote-tag-for-non-org-mode-files~ no longer
|
||
exists.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-file-apps~ no longer accepts S-expressions as commands
|
||
|
||
The variable now accepts functions of two arguments instead of plain
|
||
S-expressions. Replacing an S-expression with an appropriate function
|
||
is straightforward. For example
|
||
|
||
: ("pdf" . (foo))
|
||
|
||
becomes
|
||
|
||
: ("pdf" . (lambda (file link) (foo)))
|
||
|
||
*** The ~{{{modification-time}}}~ macro can get time via =vc=
|
||
|
||
The modification time will be determined via =vc.el= if the second
|
||
argument is non-nil. See the manual for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Preparation and completion functions in publishing projects change signature
|
||
|
||
Preparation and completion functions are now called with an argument,
|
||
which is the project property list. It used to be dynamically scoped
|
||
through the ~project-plist~ variable.
|
||
|
||
*** Old Babel header properties are no longer supported
|
||
|
||
Using header arguments as property names is no longer possible. As
|
||
such, the following
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
,* Headline
|
||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||
:exports: code
|
||
:var: a=1 b=2
|
||
:var+: c=3
|
||
:END:
|
||
#+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
|
||
should be written instead
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
,* Headline
|
||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||
:header-args: :exports code
|
||
:header-args+: :var a=1 b=2
|
||
:header-args+: :var c=3
|
||
:END:
|
||
#+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
|
||
Please note that, however, old properties were defined at the source
|
||
block definition. Current ones are defined where the block is called.
|
||
|
||
** New features
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-eww~ has been moved into core
|
||
*** New org-protocol key=value syntax
|
||
|
||
Org-protocol can now handle query-style parameters such as:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
org-protocol://store-link?url=http:%2F%2Flocalhost%2Findex.html&title=The%20title
|
||
org-protocol://capture?template=x&title=Hello&body=World&url=http:%2F%2Fexample.com
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
Old-style links such as
|
||
: org-protocol://store-link:/http:%2F%2Flocalhost%2Findex.html/The%20title
|
||
continue to be supported.
|
||
|
||
If you have defined your own handler functions for
|
||
~org-protocol-protocol-alist~, change them to accept either a property
|
||
list (for new-style links) or a string (for old-style links). Use
|
||
~org-protocol-parse-parameters~ to convert old-style links into property
|
||
lists.
|
||
|
||
*** New Org linter library
|
||
~org-lint~ can check syntax and report common issues in Org documents.
|
||
|
||
*** New option ~date-tree-last~ for ~org-agenda-insert-diary-strategy~
|
||
|
||
When ~org-agenda-insert-diary-strategy~ is set to ~date-tree-last~, diary
|
||
entries are added to last in the date tree.
|
||
|
||
*** New ~vbar~ entity
|
||
~\vbar~ or ~\vbar{}~ will be exported unconditionally as a =|=,
|
||
unlike to existing ~\vert~, which is expanded as ~|~ when using
|
||
a HTML derived export back-end.
|
||
|
||
*** Export
|
||
|
||
**** New =#+latex_compiler= keyword to set LaTeX compiler.
|
||
|
||
PDFLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and LuaLaTeX are supported. See the manual for
|
||
details.
|
||
|
||
**** New option ~org-export-with-broken-links~
|
||
|
||
This option tells the export process how to behave when encountering
|
||
a broken internal link. See its docstring for more information.
|
||
|
||
**** Attributes support in custom language environments for LaTeX export
|
||
|
||
Custom language environments for LaTeX export can now define the
|
||
string to be inserted during export, using attributes to indicate the
|
||
position of the elements. See variable ~org-latex-custom-lang-environments~
|
||
for more details.
|
||
|
||
**** New Texinfo ~options~ attribute on special blocks
|
||
|
||
Using ~:options~ as a Texinfo attribute, it is possible to add
|
||
information to custom environments. See manual for details.
|
||
|
||
**** New HTML ~id~ attributes on special, example and quote blocks
|
||
|
||
If the block has a =#+NAME:= attribute assigned, then the HTML element
|
||
will have an ~id~ attribute with that name in the HTML export. This
|
||
enables one to create links to these elements in other places, e.g.,
|
||
~<a href="#name">text</a>~.
|
||
|
||
**** Listings with captions are now numbered in HTML export
|
||
|
||
The class associated to the numbering is "listing-number". If you
|
||
don't want these blocks to be numbered, as it was the case until now,
|
||
You may want to add ~.listing-number { display: none; }~ to the CSS
|
||
used.
|
||
|
||
**** Line Numbering in SRC/EXAMPLE blocks support arbitrary start number
|
||
|
||
The ~-n~ option to ~SRC~ and ~EXAMPLE~ blocks can now take a numeric
|
||
argument to specify the staring line number for the source or example
|
||
block. The ~+n~ option can now take a numeric argument that will be
|
||
added to the last line number from the previous block as the starting
|
||
point for the SRC/EXAMPLE block.
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp -n 20
|
||
;; this will export with line number 20
|
||
(message "This is line 21")
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp +n 10
|
||
;; This will be listed as line 31
|
||
(message "This is line 32")
|
||
,#+END_SRC
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
**** Allow toggling center for images in LaTeX export
|
||
|
||
With the global variable ~org-latex-images-centered~ or the local
|
||
attribute ~:center~ it is now possible to center an image in LaTeX
|
||
export.
|
||
|
||
**** Default CSS class ~org-svg~ for SVG images in HTML export
|
||
|
||
SVG images exported in HTML are now by default assigned a CSS class
|
||
~org-svg~ if no CSS class is specified with the ~:class~ attribute. By
|
||
default, the CSS styling of class ~org-svg~ specifies an image width of
|
||
90\thinsp{}% of the container the image.
|
||
|
||
**** Markdown footnote export customization
|
||
|
||
Variables ~org-md-footnotes-section~ and ~org-md-footnote-format~
|
||
introduced for =ox-md.el=. Both new variables define template strings
|
||
which can be used to customize the format of the exported footnotes
|
||
section and individual footnotes, respectively.
|
||
|
||
*** Babel
|
||
|
||
**** Blocks with coderefs labels can now be evaluated
|
||
|
||
The labels are removed prior to evaluating the block.
|
||
|
||
**** Support for Lua language
|
||
**** Support for SLY in Lisp blocks
|
||
|
||
See ~org-babel-lisp-eval-fn~ to activate it.
|
||
|
||
**** Support for Stan language
|
||
|
||
New ob-stan.el library.
|
||
|
||
Evaluating a Stan block can produce two different results.
|
||
|
||
1. Dump the source code contents to a file.
|
||
|
||
This file can then be used as a variable in other blocks, which
|
||
allows interfaces like RStan to use the model.
|
||
|
||
2. Compile the contents to a model file.
|
||
|
||
This provides access to the CmdStan interface. To use this, set
|
||
~org-babel-stan-cmdstan-directory~ and provide a ~:file~ argument
|
||
that does not end in ".stan".
|
||
|
||
For more information and usage examples, visit
|
||
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-stan.html
|
||
|
||
**** Support for Oracle databases via ~sqlplus~
|
||
|
||
=ob-sql= library supports running SQL blocks against an Oracle
|
||
database using ~sqlplus~. Use with properties like this (all
|
||
mandatory):
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
:engine oracle
|
||
:dbhost <host.com>
|
||
:dbport <1521>
|
||
:dbuser <username>
|
||
:database <database>
|
||
:dbpassword <secret>
|
||
#+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
|
||
**** Improved support to Microsoft SQL Server via ~sqlcmd~
|
||
|
||
=ob-sql= library removes support to the ~msosql~ engine which uses the
|
||
deprecated ~osql~ command line tool, and replaces it with ~mssql~
|
||
engine which uses the ~sqlcmd~ command line tool. Use with properties
|
||
like this:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
:engine mssql
|
||
:dbhost <host.com>
|
||
:dbuser <username>
|
||
:dbpassword <secret>
|
||
:database <database>
|
||
#+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
|
||
If you want to use the *trusted connection* feature, omit *both* the
|
||
=dbuser= and =dbpassword= properties and add =cmdline -E= to the properties.
|
||
|
||
If your Emacs is running in a Cygwin environment, the =ob-sql= library
|
||
can pass the converted path to the =sqlcmd= tool.
|
||
|
||
**** Improved support of header arguments for postgresql
|
||
|
||
The postgresql engine in a sql code block supports now ~:dbport~ nd
|
||
~:dbpassword~ as header arguments.
|
||
|
||
**** Support for additional plantuml output formats
|
||
|
||
The support for output formats of [[http://plantuml.com/][plantuml]] has been extended to now
|
||
include:
|
||
|
||
All Diagrams:
|
||
- png ::
|
||
- svg ::
|
||
- eps ::
|
||
- pdf ::
|
||
- vdx ::
|
||
- txt :: ASCII art
|
||
- utxt :: ASCII art using unicode characters
|
||
|
||
Class Diagrams:
|
||
- xmi ::
|
||
- html ::
|
||
|
||
State Diagrams:
|
||
- scxml ::
|
||
|
||
The output formats are determined by the file extension specified
|
||
using the :file property, e.g.:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_src plantuml :file diagram.png
|
||
@startuml
|
||
Alice -> Bob: Authentication Request
|
||
Bob --> Alice: Authentication Response
|
||
|
||
Alice -> Bob: Another authentication Request
|
||
Alice <-- Bob: another authentication Response
|
||
@enduml
|
||
#+end_src
|
||
|
||
Please note that *pdf* *does not work out of the box* and needs additional
|
||
setup in addition to plantuml. See [[http://plantuml.com/pdf.html]] for
|
||
details and setup information.
|
||
|
||
*** Rewrite of radio lists
|
||
|
||
Radio lists, i.e, Org plain lists in foreign buffers, have been
|
||
rewritten to be on par with Radio tables. You can use a large set of
|
||
parameters to control how a given list should be rendered. See manual
|
||
for details.
|
||
|
||
*** org-bbdb-anniversaries-future
|
||
|
||
Used like ~org-bbdb-anniversaries~, it provides a few days warning for
|
||
upcoming anniversaries (default: 7 days).
|
||
|
||
*** Clear non-repeated SCHEDULED upon repeating a task
|
||
|
||
If the task is repeated, and therefore done at least one, scheduling
|
||
information is no longer relevant. It is therefore removed.
|
||
|
||
See [[git:481719fbd5751aaa9c672b762cb43aea8ee986b0][commit message]] for more information.
|
||
|
||
*** Support for ISO week trees
|
||
|
||
ISO week trees are an alternative date tree format that orders entries
|
||
by ISO week and not by month.
|
||
|
||
For example:
|
||
|
||
: * 2015
|
||
: ** 2015-W35
|
||
: ** 2015-W36
|
||
: *** 2015-08-31 Monday
|
||
|
||
They are supported in org-capture via ~file+weektree~ and
|
||
~file+weektree+prompt~ target specifications.
|
||
|
||
*** Accept ~:indent~ parameter when capturing column view
|
||
|
||
When defining a "columnview" dynamic block, it is now possible to add
|
||
an :indent parameter, much like the one in the clock table.
|
||
|
||
On the other hand, stars no longer appear in an ITEM field.
|
||
|
||
*** Columns view
|
||
|
||
**** ~org-columns~ accepts a prefix argument
|
||
|
||
When called with a prefix argument, ~org-columns~ apply to the whole
|
||
buffer unconditionally.
|
||
|
||
**** New variable : ~org-agenda-view-columns-initially~
|
||
|
||
The variable used to be a ~defvar~, it is now a ~defcustom~.
|
||
|
||
**** Allow custom summaries
|
||
|
||
It is now possible to add new summary types, or override those
|
||
provided by Org by customizing ~org-columns-summary-types~, which see.
|
||
|
||
**** Allow multiple summaries for any property
|
||
|
||
Columns can now summarize the same property using different summary
|
||
types.
|
||
|
||
*** Preview LaTeX snippets in buffers not visiting files
|
||
*** New option ~org-attach-commit~
|
||
|
||
When non-nil, commit attachments with git, assuming the document is in
|
||
a git repository.
|
||
|
||
*** Allow conditional case-fold searches in ~org-occur~
|
||
|
||
When set to ~smart~, the new variable ~org-occur-case-fold-search~ allows
|
||
to mimic =isearch.el=: if the regexp searched contains any upper case
|
||
character (or character class), the search is case sensitive.
|
||
Otherwise, it is case insensitive.
|
||
|
||
*** More robust repeated =ox-latex= footnote handling
|
||
|
||
Repeated footnotes are now numbered by referring to a label in the
|
||
first footnote.
|
||
|
||
*** The ~org-block~ face is inherited by ~src-blocks~
|
||
|
||
This works also when =org-src-fontify-natively= is non-nil. It is also
|
||
possible to specify per-languages faces. See =org-src-block-faces= and
|
||
the manual for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Links are now customizable
|
||
|
||
Links can now have custom colors, tooltips, keymaps, display behavior,
|
||
etc. Links are now centralized in ~org-link-parameters~.
|
||
|
||
** New functions
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-next-line-empty-p~
|
||
|
||
It replaces the deprecated ~next~ argument to ~org-previous-line-empty-p~.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-show-children~
|
||
|
||
It is a faster implementation of ~outline-show-children~.
|
||
|
||
** Removed functions
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag-refine~ has been removed.
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-agenda-todayp~ is deprecated.
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-agenda-today-p~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-babel-get-header~ is removed.
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-babel--get-vars~ or ~assq~ instead, as applicable.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-babel-trim~ is deprecated.
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-trim~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-element-remove-indentation~ is deprecated.
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-remove-indentation~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-image-file-name-regexp~ is deprecated
|
||
|
||
Use ~image-file-name-regexp~ instead.
|
||
The never-used-in-core ~extensions~ argument has been dropped.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-list-parse-list~ is deprecated
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-list-to-lisp~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-on-heading-p~ is deprecated
|
||
|
||
A comment to this effect was in the source code since 7.8.03, but
|
||
now a byte-compiler warning will be generated as well.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-table-p~ is deprecated
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-at-table-p~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-table-recognize-table.el~ is deprecated
|
||
|
||
It was not called by any org code since 2010.
|
||
|
||
*** Various reimplementations of cl-lib functions are deprecated
|
||
|
||
The affected functions are:
|
||
- ~org-count~
|
||
- ~org-remove-if~
|
||
- ~org-remove-if-not~
|
||
- ~org-reduce~
|
||
- ~org-every~
|
||
- ~org-some~
|
||
|
||
Additionally, ~org-sublist~ is deprecated in favor of ~cl-subseq~. Note
|
||
the differences in indexing conventions: ~org-sublist~ is 1-based and
|
||
end-inclusive; ~cl-subseq~ is 0-based and end-exclusive.
|
||
|
||
** Removed options
|
||
|
||
*** Remove all options related to ~ido~ or ~iswitchb~
|
||
|
||
This includes ~org-completion-use-iswitchb~ and ~org-completion-use-ido~.
|
||
Instead Org uses regular functions, e.g., ~completion-read~ so as to
|
||
let those libraries operate.
|
||
|
||
*** Remove ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~
|
||
|
||
Two consecutive blank lines always terminate all levels of current
|
||
plain list.
|
||
|
||
*** ~fixltx2e~ is removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~
|
||
|
||
fixltx2e is obsolete, see LaTeX News 22.
|
||
|
||
** Miscellaneous
|
||
*** Add Icelandic smart quotes
|
||
*** Allow multiple receiver locations in radio tables and lists
|
||
*** Allow angular links within link descriptions
|
||
|
||
It is now allowed to write, e.g.,
|
||
~[[http:orgmode.org][<file:unicorn.png>]]~ as an equivalent to
|
||
~[[http:orgmode.org][file:unicorn.png]]~. The advantage of the former
|
||
is that spaces are allowed within the path.
|
||
|
||
*** Beamer export back-ends uses ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~
|
||
*** ~:preparation-function~ called earlier during publishing
|
||
|
||
Functions in this list are called before any file is associated to the
|
||
current project. Thus, they can be used to generate to be published
|
||
Org files.
|
||
|
||
*** Function ~org-remove-indentation~ changes.
|
||
|
||
The new algorithm doesn't remove TAB characters not used for
|
||
indentation.
|
||
|
||
*** Secure placeholders in capture templates
|
||
|
||
Placeholders in capture templates are no longer expanded recursively.
|
||
However, ~%(...)~ constructs are expanded very late, so you can fill
|
||
the contents of the S-exp with the replacement text of non-interactive
|
||
placeholders. As before, interactive ones are still expanded as the
|
||
very last step, so the previous statement doesn't apply to them.
|
||
|
||
Note that only ~%(...)~ placeholders initially present in the
|
||
template, or introduced using a file placeholder, i.e., ~%[...]~ are
|
||
expanded. This prevents evaluating potentially malicious code when
|
||
another placeholder, e.g., ~%i~ expands to a S-exp.
|
||
|
||
*** Links stored by ~org-gnus-store-link~ in nnir groups
|
||
|
||
Since gnus nnir groups are temporary, ~org-gnus-store-link~ now refers
|
||
to the article's original group.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-babel-check-confirm-evaluate~ is now a function instead of a macro
|
||
|
||
The calling convention has changed.
|
||
|
||
*** HTML export table row customization changes
|
||
|
||
Variable ~org-html-table-row-tags~ has been split into
|
||
~org-html-table-row-open-tag~ and ~org-html-table-row-close-tag~.
|
||
Both new variables can be either a string or a function which will be
|
||
called with 6 parameters.
|
||
|
||
*** =ITEM= special property returns headline without stars
|
||
*** Rename ~org-insert-columns-dblock~ into ~org-columns-insert-dblock~
|
||
|
||
The previous name is, for the time being, kept as an obsolete alias.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-trim~ can preserve leading indentation.
|
||
|
||
When setting a new optional argument to a non-nil value, ~org-trim~
|
||
preserves leading indentation while removing blank lines at the
|
||
beginning of the string. The behavior is identical for white space at
|
||
the end of the string.
|
||
|
||
*** Function ~org-info-export~ changes.
|
||
|
||
HTML links created from certain info links now point to =gnu.org= URL's rather
|
||
than just to local files. For example info links such as =info:emacs#List
|
||
Buffers= used to be converted to HTML links like this:
|
||
|
||
: <a href="emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a>
|
||
|
||
where local file =emacs.html= is referenced.
|
||
For most folks this file does not exist.
|
||
Thus the new behavior is to generate this HTML link instead:
|
||
|
||
: <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_mono/emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a>
|
||
|
||
All emacs related info links are similarly translated plus few other
|
||
=gnu.org= manuals.
|
||
|
||
*** Repeaters with a ~++~ interval and a time can be shifted to later today
|
||
|
||
Previously, if a recurring task had a timestamp of
|
||
~<2016-01-01 Fri 20:00 ++1d>~ and was completed on =2016-01-02= at
|
||
=08:00=, the task would skip =2016-01-02= and would be rescheduled for
|
||
=2016-01-03=. Timestamps with ~++~ cookies and a specific time will
|
||
now shift to the first possible future occurrence, even if the
|
||
occurrence is later the same day the task is completed. (Timestamps
|
||
already in the future are still shifted one time further into the
|
||
future.)
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-mobile-action-alist~ is now a defconst
|
||
|
||
It used to be a defcustom, with a warning that it shouldn't be
|
||
modified anyway.
|
||
|
||
*** ~file+emacs~ and ~file+sys~ link types are deprecated
|
||
|
||
They are still supported in Org 9.0 but will eventually be removed in
|
||
a later release. Use ~file~ link type along with universal arguments
|
||
to force opening it in either Emacs or with system application.
|
||
|
||
*** New defcustom ~org-babel-J-command~ stores the j command
|
||
*** New defalias ~org-babel-execute:j~
|
||
|
||
Allows J source blocks be indicated by letter j. Previously the
|
||
indication letter was solely J.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-open-line~ ignores tables at the very beginning of the buffer
|
||
|
||
When ~org-special-ctrl-o~ is non-nil, it is impractical to create
|
||
a blank line above a table at the beginning of the document. Now, as
|
||
a special case, ~org-open-line~ behaves normally in this situation.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-babel-hash-show-time~ is now customizable
|
||
|
||
The experimental variable used to be more or less confidential, as
|
||
a ~defvar~.
|
||
|
||
*** New ~:format~ property to parsed links
|
||
|
||
It defines the format of the original link. Possible values are:
|
||
~plain~, ~bracket~ and ~angle~.
|
||
|
||
* Version 8.3
|
||
|
||
** Incompatible changes
|
||
|
||
*** Properties drawers syntax changes
|
||
|
||
Properties drawers are now required to be located right after a
|
||
headline and its planning line, when applicable.
|
||
|
||
It will break some documents as TODO states changes were sometimes
|
||
logged before the property drawer.
|
||
|
||
The following function will repair them:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||
(defun org-repair-property-drawers ()
|
||
"Fix properties drawers in current buffer.
|
||
Ignore non Org buffers."
|
||
(when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
|
||
(org-with-wide-buffer
|
||
(goto-char (point-min))
|
||
(let ((case-fold-search t)
|
||
(inline-re (and (featurep 'org-inlinetask)
|
||
(concat (org-inlinetask-outline-regexp)
|
||
"END[ \t]*$"))))
|
||
(org-map-entries
|
||
(lambda ()
|
||
(unless (and inline-re (org-looking-at-p inline-re))
|
||
(save-excursion
|
||
(let ((end (save-excursion (outline-next-heading) (point))))
|
||
(forward-line)
|
||
(when (org-looking-at-p org-planning-line-re) (forward-line))
|
||
(when (and (< (point) end)
|
||
(not (org-looking-at-p org-property-drawer-re))
|
||
(save-excursion
|
||
(and (re-search-forward org-property-drawer-re end t)
|
||
(eq (org-element-type
|
||
(save-match-data (org-element-at-point)))
|
||
'drawer))))
|
||
(insert (delete-and-extract-region
|
||
(match-beginning 0)
|
||
(min (1+ (match-end 0)) end)))
|
||
(unless (bolp) (insert "\n"))))))))))))
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** Using "COMMENT" is now equivalent to commenting with "#"
|
||
|
||
If you used "COMMENT" in headlines to prevent a subtree from being
|
||
exported, you can still do it but all information within the subtree
|
||
is now commented out, i.e. no #+OPTIONS line will be parsed or taken
|
||
into account when exporting.
|
||
|
||
If you want to exclude a headline from export while using its contents
|
||
for setting options, use =:noexport:= (see =org-export-exclude-tags=.)
|
||
|
||
*** =#+CATEGORY= keywords no longer apply partially to document
|
||
|
||
It was possible to use several such keywords and have them apply to
|
||
the text below until the next one, but strongly deprecated since Org
|
||
5.14 (2008).
|
||
=#+CATEGORY= keywords are now global to the document. You can use node
|
||
properties to set category for a subtree, e.g.,
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,* Headline
|
||
:PROPERTIES:
|
||
:CATEGORY: some category
|
||
:END:
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** New variable to control visibility when revealing a location
|
||
~org-show-following-heading~, ~org-show-siblings~, ~org-show-entry-below~
|
||
and ~org-show-hierarchy-above~ no longer exist. Instead, visibility is
|
||
controlled through a single variable: ~org-show-context-detail~, which
|
||
see.
|
||
|
||
*** Replace disputed keys again when reading a date
|
||
~org-replace-disputed-keys~ has been ignored when reading date since
|
||
version 8.1, but the former behavior is restored again.
|
||
|
||
Keybinding for reading date can be customized with a new variable
|
||
~org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map~.
|
||
|
||
*** No default title is provided when =TITLE= keyword is missing
|
||
|
||
Skipping =TITLE= keyword no longer provides the current file name, or
|
||
buffer name, as the title. Instead, simply ignore the title.
|
||
|
||
*** Default bindings of =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= changed
|
||
|
||
The key sequences =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= are now bound to
|
||
~org-next-visible-heading~ and ~org-previous-visible-heading~
|
||
respectively, rather than the =outline-mode= versions of these
|
||
functions. The Org version of these functions skips over inline tasks
|
||
(and even-level headlines when ~org-odd-levels-only~ is set).
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-element-context~ no longer return objects in keywords
|
||
~org-element-context~ used to return objects on some keywords, i.e.,
|
||
=TITLE=, =DATE= and =AUTHOR=. It now returns only the keyword.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-timer-default-timer~ type changed from number to string
|
||
|
||
If you have, in your configuration, something like =(setq
|
||
org-timer-default-timer 10)= replace it with =(setq
|
||
org-timer-default-timer "10")=.
|
||
|
||
*** Functions signature changes
|
||
|
||
The following functions require an additional argument. See their
|
||
docstring for more information.
|
||
|
||
- ~org-export-collect-footnote-definitions~
|
||
- ~org-html-format-headline-function~
|
||
- ~org-html-format-inlinetask-function~
|
||
- ~org-latex-format-headline-function~
|
||
- ~org-latex-format-inlinetask-function~
|
||
- ~org-link-search~
|
||
|
||
** New features
|
||
|
||
*** Default lexical evaluation of emacs-lisp source blocks
|
||
|
||
Emacs-lisp source blocks in Babel are now evaluated using lexical
|
||
scoping. There is a new header to control this behavior.
|
||
|
||
The default results in an eval with lexical scoping.
|
||
:lexical yes
|
||
|
||
This turns lexical scoping off in the eval (the former behavior).
|
||
:lexical no
|
||
|
||
This uses the lexical environment with x=42 in the eval.
|
||
:lexical '((x . 42))
|
||
|
||
*** Behavior of ~org-return~ changed
|
||
|
||
If point is before or after the headline title, insert a new line
|
||
without changing the headline.
|
||
|
||
*** Hierarchies of tags
|
||
|
||
The functionality of nesting tags in hierarchies is added to org-mode.
|
||
This is the generalization of what was previously called "Tag groups"
|
||
in the manual. That term is now changed to "Tag hierarchy".
|
||
|
||
The following in-buffer definition:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,#+TAGS: [ Group : SubOne SubTwo ]
|
||
,#+TAGS: [ SubOne : SubOne1 SubOne2 ]
|
||
,#+TAGS: [ SubTwo : SubTwo1 SubTwo2 ]
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
Should be seen as the following tree of tags:
|
||
|
||
- Group
|
||
- SubOne
|
||
- SubOne1
|
||
- SubOne2
|
||
- SubTwo
|
||
- SubTwo1
|
||
- SubTwo2
|
||
|
||
Searching for "Group" should return all tags defined above. Filtering
|
||
on SubOne filters also it's sub-tags. Etc.
|
||
|
||
There is no limit on the depth for the tag hierarchy.
|
||
|
||
*** Additional syntax for non-unique grouptags
|
||
|
||
Additional syntax is defined for grouptags if the tags in the group
|
||
don't have to be distinct on a heading.
|
||
|
||
Grouptags had to previously be defined with { }. This syntax is
|
||
already used for exclusive tags and Grouptags need their own,
|
||
non-exclusive syntax. This behavior is achieved with [ ]. Note: { }
|
||
can still be used also for Grouptags but then only one of the given
|
||
tags can be used on the headline at the same time. Example:
|
||
|
||
[ group : sub1 sub2 ]
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
||
,* Test :sub1:sub2:
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
This is a more general case than the already existing syntax for
|
||
grouptags; { }.
|
||
|
||
*** Define regular expression patterns as tags
|
||
|
||
Tags can be defined as grouptags with regular expressions as
|
||
"sub-tags".
|
||
|
||
The regular expressions in the group must be marked up within { }.
|
||
Example use:
|
||
|
||
: #+TAGS: [ Project : {P@.+} ]
|
||
|
||
Searching for the tag Project will now list all tags also including
|
||
regular expression matches for P@.+. This is good for example for
|
||
projects tagged with a common identifier, i.e. P@2014_OrgTags.
|
||
|
||
*** Filtering in the agenda on grouptags (Tag hierarchies)
|
||
|
||
Filtering in the agenda on grouptags filters all of the related tags.
|
||
Except if a filter is applied with a (double) prefix-argument.
|
||
|
||
Filtering in the agenda on subcategories does not filter the "above"
|
||
levels anymore.
|
||
|
||
If a grouptag contains a regular expression the regular expression
|
||
is also used as a filter.
|
||
|
||
*** Minor refactoring of ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~
|
||
|
||
Now uses the argument ARG and optional argument exclude instead of
|
||
strip and narrow. ARG because the argument has multiple purposes and
|
||
makes more sense than strip now. The term "narrowing" is changed to
|
||
exclude.
|
||
|
||
The main purpose is for the function to make more logical sense when
|
||
filtering on tags now when tags can be structured in hierarchies.
|
||
|
||
*** Babel: support for sed scripts
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Bjarte Johansen for this feature.
|
||
|
||
*** Babel: support for Processing language
|
||
|
||
New ob-processing.el library.
|
||
|
||
This library implements necessary functions for implementing editing
|
||
of Processing code blocks, viewing the resulting sketches in an
|
||
external viewer, and HTML export of the sketches.
|
||
|
||
Check the documentation for more details.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Jarmo Hurri for this feature.
|
||
|
||
*** New behavior for ~org-toggle-latex-fragment~
|
||
|
||
The new behavior is the following:
|
||
|
||
- With a double prefix argument or with a single prefix argument when
|
||
point is before the first headline, toggle overlays in the whole
|
||
buffer;
|
||
|
||
- With a single prefix argument, toggle overlays in the current
|
||
subtree;
|
||
|
||
- On latex code, toggle overlay at point;
|
||
|
||
- Otherwise, toggle overlays in the current section.
|
||
|
||
*** Additional markup with =#+INCLUDE= keyword
|
||
|
||
The content of the included file can now be optionally marked up, for
|
||
instance as HTML. See the documentation for details.
|
||
|
||
*** File links with =#+INCLUDE= keyword
|
||
|
||
Objects can be extracted via =#+INCLUDE= using file links. It is
|
||
possible to include only the contents of the object. See manual for
|
||
more information.
|
||
|
||
*** Drawers do not need anymore to be referenced in =#+DRAWERS=
|
||
|
||
One can use a drawer without listing it in the =#+DRAWERS= keyword,
|
||
which is now obsolete. As a consequence, this change also deprecates
|
||
~org-drawers~ variable.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-edit-special~ can edit export blocks
|
||
|
||
Using C-c ' on an export block now opens a sub-editing buffer. Major
|
||
mode in that buffer is determined by export backend name (e.g.,
|
||
"latex" \to "latex-mode"). You can define exceptions to this rule by
|
||
configuring ~org-src-lang-modes~, which see.
|
||
|
||
*** Additional =:hline= processing to ob-shell
|
||
|
||
If the argument =:hlines yes= is present in a babel call, an optional
|
||
argument =:hlines-string= can be used to define a string to use as a
|
||
representation for the lisp symbol ='hline= in the shell program. The
|
||
default is =hline=.
|
||
|
||
*** Markdown export supports switches in source blocks
|
||
|
||
For example, it is now possible to number lines using the =-n= switch in
|
||
a source block.
|
||
|
||
*** New option in ASCII export
|
||
|
||
Plain lists can have an extra margin by setting ~org-ascii-list-margin~
|
||
variable to an appropriate integer.
|
||
|
||
*** New blocks in ASCII export
|
||
|
||
ASCII export now supports =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYRIGHT= and =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYLEFT=
|
||
blocks. See documentation for details.
|
||
|
||
*** More back-end specific publishing options
|
||
|
||
The number of publishing options specific to each back-end has been
|
||
increased. See manual for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Export inline source blocks
|
||
|
||
Inline source code was used to be removed upon exporting. They are
|
||
now handled as standard code blocks, i.e., the source code can appear
|
||
in the output, depending on the parameters.
|
||
|
||
*** Extend ~org-export-first-sibling-p~ and ~org-export-last-sibling-p~
|
||
|
||
These functions now support any element or object, not only headlines.
|
||
|
||
*** New function: ~org-export-table-row-in-header-p~
|
||
|
||
*** New function: ~org-export-get-reference~
|
||
|
||
*** New function: ~org-element-lineage~
|
||
|
||
This function deprecates ~org-export-get-genealogy~. It also provides
|
||
more features. See docstring for details.
|
||
|
||
*** New function: ~org-element-copy~
|
||
|
||
*** New filter: ~org-export-filter-body-functions~
|
||
|
||
Functions in this filter are applied on the body of the exported
|
||
document, before wrapping it within the template.
|
||
|
||
*** New :environment parameter when exporting example blocks to LaTeX
|
||
|
||
: #+ATTR_LATEX: :environment myverbatim
|
||
: #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
: This sentence is false.
|
||
: #+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
|
||
will be exported using =@samp(myverbatim)= instead of =@samp(verbatim)=.
|
||
|
||
*** Various improvements on radio tables
|
||
|
||
Radio tables feature now relies on Org's export framework ("ox.el").
|
||
~:no-escape~ parameter no longer exists, but additional global
|
||
parameters are now supported: ~:raw~, ~:backend~. Moreover, there are new
|
||
parameters specific to some pre-defined translators, e.g.,
|
||
~:environment~ and ~:booktabs~ for ~orgtbl-to-latex~. See translators
|
||
docstrings (including ~orgtbl-to-generic~) for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Non-floating minted listings in Latex export
|
||
|
||
It is not possible to specify =#+attr_latex: :float nil= in conjunction
|
||
with source blocks exported by the minted package.
|
||
|
||
*** Field formulas can now create columns as needed
|
||
|
||
Previously, evaluating formulas that referenced out-of-bounds columns
|
||
would throw an error. A new variable ~org-table-formula-create-columns~
|
||
was added to adjust this behavior. It is now possible to silently add
|
||
new columns, to do so with a warning or to explicitly ask the user
|
||
each time.
|
||
|
||
*** ASCII plot
|
||
|
||
Ability to plot values in a column through ASCII-art bars. See manual
|
||
for details.
|
||
|
||
*** New hook: ~org-archive-hook~
|
||
|
||
This hook is called after successfully archiving a subtree, with point
|
||
on the original subtree, not yet deleted.
|
||
|
||
*** New option: ~org-attach-archive-delete~
|
||
|
||
When non-nil, attachments from archived subtrees are removed.
|
||
|
||
*** New option: ~org-latex-caption-above~
|
||
|
||
This variable generalizes ~org-latex-table-caption-above~, which is now
|
||
deprecated. In addition to tables, it applies to source blocks,
|
||
special blocks and images. See docstring for more information.
|
||
|
||
*** New option: ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~
|
||
|
||
See the docstring for more information.
|
||
|
||
*** Export unnumbered headlines
|
||
|
||
Headlines, for which the property ~UNNUMBERED~ is non-nil, are now
|
||
exported without section numbers irrespective of their levels. The
|
||
property is inherited by children.
|
||
|
||
*** Tables can be sorted with an arbitrary function
|
||
|
||
It is now possible to specify a function, both programmatically,
|
||
through a new optional argument, and interactively with ~f~ or ~F~ keys,
|
||
to sort a table.
|
||
|
||
*** Table of contents can be local to a section
|
||
|
||
The ~TOC~ keywords now accepts an optional ~local~ parameter. See manual
|
||
for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Countdown timers can now be paused
|
||
~org-timer-pause-time~ now pauses and restarts both relative and
|
||
countdown timers.
|
||
|
||
*** New option ~only-window~ for ~org-agenda-window-setup~
|
||
|
||
When ~org-agenda-window-setup~ is set to ~only-window~, the agenda is
|
||
displayed as the sole window of the current frame.
|
||
|
||
*** ~{{{date}}}~ macro supports optional formatting argument
|
||
|
||
It is now possible to supply and optional formatting argument to
|
||
~{{{date}}}~. See manual for details.
|
||
|
||
*** ~{{{property}}}~ macro supports optional search argument
|
||
|
||
It is now possible to supply an optional search option to
|
||
~{{{property}}}~ in order to retrieve remote properties optional. See
|
||
manual for details.
|
||
|
||
*** New option ~org-export-with-title~
|
||
|
||
It is possible to suppress the title insertion with ~#+OPTIONS:
|
||
title:nil~ or globally using the variable ~org-export-with-title~.
|
||
|
||
*** New entities family: "\_ "
|
||
|
||
"\_ " are used to insert up to 20 contiguous spaces in various
|
||
back-ends. In particular, this family can be used to introduce
|
||
leading spaces within table cells.
|
||
|
||
*** New MathJax configuration options
|
||
|
||
Org uses the MathJax CDN by default. See the manual and the docstring
|
||
of ~org-html-mathjax-options~ for details.
|
||
|
||
*** New behavior in `org-export-options-alist'
|
||
|
||
When defining a back-end, it is now possible to specify to give
|
||
`parse' behavior on a keyword. It is equivalent to call
|
||
`org-element-parse-secondary-string' on the value.
|
||
|
||
However, parsed =KEYWORD= is automatically associated to an
|
||
=:EXPORT_KEYWORD:= property, which can be used to override the keyword
|
||
value during a subtree export. Moreover, macros are expanded in such
|
||
keywords and properties.
|
||
|
||
*** Viewport support in html export
|
||
|
||
Viewport for mobile-optimized website is now automatically inserted
|
||
when exporting to html. See ~org-html-viewport~ for details.
|
||
|
||
*** New ~#+SUBTITLE~ export keyword
|
||
|
||
Org can typeset a subtitle in some export backends. See the manual
|
||
for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Remotely edit a footnote definition
|
||
|
||
Calling ~org-edit-footnote-reference~ (C-c ') on a footnote reference
|
||
allows to edit its definition, as long as it is not anonymous, in a
|
||
dedicated buffer. It works even if buffer is currently narrowed.
|
||
|
||
*** New function ~org-delete-indentation~ bound to ~M-^~
|
||
|
||
Work as ~delete-indentation~ unless at heading, in which case text is
|
||
added to headline text.
|
||
|
||
*** Support for images in Texinfo export
|
||
~Texinfo~ back-end now handles images. See the manual for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Support for captions in Texinfo export
|
||
|
||
Tables and source blocks can now have captions. Additionally, lists
|
||
of tables and lists of listings can be inserted in the document with
|
||
=#+TOC= keyword.
|
||
|
||
*** Countdown timer support hh:mm:ss format
|
||
|
||
In addition to setting countdown timers in minutes, they can also be
|
||
set using the hh:mm:ss format.
|
||
|
||
*** Extend ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~
|
||
~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~ now accepts 0 as an argument for the
|
||
number of clones, which removes the repeater from the original subtree
|
||
and creates one shifted, repeating clone.
|
||
|
||
*** New time block for clock tables: ~untilnow~
|
||
|
||
It encompasses all past closed clocks.
|
||
|
||
*** Support for the ~polyglossia~ LaTeX package
|
||
|
||
See the docstring of ~org-latex-classes~ and
|
||
~org-latex-guess-polyglossia-language~ for details.
|
||
|
||
*** None-floating tables, graphics and blocks can have captions
|
||
|
||
*** `org-insert-heading' can be forced to insert top-level headline
|
||
|
||
** Removed functions
|
||
|
||
*** Removed function ~org-translate-time~
|
||
|
||
Use ~org-timestamp-translate~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed function ~org-beamer-insert-options-template~
|
||
|
||
This function inserted a Beamer specific template at point or in
|
||
current subtree. Use ~org-export-insert-default-template~ instead, as
|
||
it provides more features and covers all export back-ends. It is also
|
||
accessible from the export dispatcher.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed function ~org-timer-cancel-timer~
|
||
~org-timer-stop~ now stops both relative and countdown timers.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed function ~org-export-solidify-link-text~
|
||
|
||
This function, being non-bijective, introduced bug in internal
|
||
references. Use ~org-export-get-reference~ instead.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed function ~org-end-of-meta-data-and-drawers~
|
||
|
||
The function is superseded by ~org-end-of-meta-data~, called with an
|
||
optional argument.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed functions ~org-table-colgroup-line-p~, ~org-table-cookie-line-p~
|
||
|
||
These functions were left-over from pre 8.0 era. They are not correct
|
||
anymore. Since they are not needed, they have no replacement.
|
||
|
||
** Removed options
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~ is deprecated
|
||
|
||
It will be kept in code base until next release, for backward
|
||
compatibility.
|
||
|
||
If you need to separate consecutive lists with blank lines, always use
|
||
two of them, as if this option was nil (default value).
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-export-with-creator~ is a boolean
|
||
|
||
Special ~comment~ value is no longer allowed. It is possible to use a
|
||
body filter to add comments about the creator at the end of the
|
||
document instead.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed option =org-html-use-unicode-chars=
|
||
|
||
Setting this to non-nil was problematic as it converted characters
|
||
everywhere in the buffer, possibly corrupting URLs.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed option =org-babel-sh-command=
|
||
|
||
This undocumented option defaulted to the value of =shell-file-name= at
|
||
the time of loading =ob-shell=. The new behavior is to use the value
|
||
of =shell-file-name= directly when the shell langage is =shell=. To chose
|
||
a different shell, either customize =shell-file-name= or bind this
|
||
variable locally.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed option =org-babel-sh-var-quote-fmt=
|
||
|
||
This undocumented option was supposed to provide different quoting
|
||
styles when changing the shell type. Changing the shell type can now
|
||
be done directly from the source block and the quoting style has to be
|
||
compatible across all shells, so a customization doesn't make sense
|
||
anymore. The chosen hard coded quoting style conforms to POSIX.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed option ~org-insert-labeled-timestamps-at-point~
|
||
|
||
Setting this option to anything else that the default value (nil)
|
||
would create invalid planning info. This dangerous option is now
|
||
removed.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed option ~org-koma-letter-use-title~
|
||
|
||
Use org-export-with-title instead. See also below.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed option ~org-entities-ascii-explanatory~
|
||
|
||
This variable has no effect since Org 8.0.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed option ~org-table-error-on-row-ref-crossing-hline~
|
||
|
||
This variable has no effect since August 2009.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed MathML-related options from ~org-html-mathjax-options~
|
||
|
||
MathJax automatically chooses the best display technology based on the
|
||
end-users browser. You may force initial usage of MathML via
|
||
~org-html-mathjax-template~ or by setting the ~path~ property of
|
||
~org-html-mathjax-options~.
|
||
|
||
*** Removed comment-related filters
|
||
~org-export-filter-comment-functions~ and
|
||
~org-export-filter-comment-block-functions~ variables do not exist
|
||
anymore.
|
||
|
||
** Miscellaneous
|
||
|
||
*** Strip all meta data from ITEM special property
|
||
|
||
ITEM special property does not contain TODO, priority or tags anymore.
|
||
|
||
*** File names in links accept are now compatible with URI syntax
|
||
|
||
Absolute file names can now start with =///= in addition to =/=. E.g.,
|
||
=[[file:///home/me/unicorn.jpg]]=.
|
||
|
||
*** Footnotes in included files are now local to the file
|
||
|
||
As a consequence, it is possible to include multiple Org files with
|
||
footnotes in a master document without being concerned about footnote
|
||
labels colliding.
|
||
|
||
*** Mailto links now use regular URI syntax
|
||
|
||
This change deprecates old Org syntax for mailto links:
|
||
=mailto:user@domain::Subject=.
|
||
|
||
*** =QUOTE= keywords do not exist anymore
|
||
=QUOTE= keywords have been deprecated since Org 8.2.
|
||
|
||
*** Select tests to perform with the build system
|
||
|
||
The build system has been enhanced to allow test selection with a
|
||
regular expression by defining =BTEST_RE= during the test invocation.
|
||
This is especially useful during bisection to find just when a
|
||
particular test failure was introduced.
|
||
|
||
*** Exact heading search for external links ignore spaces and cookies
|
||
|
||
Exact heading search for links now ignore spaces and cookies. This is
|
||
the case for links of the form ~file:projects.org::*task title~, as well
|
||
as links of the form ~file:projects.org::some words~ when
|
||
~org-link-search-must-match-exact-headline~ is not nil.
|
||
|
||
*** ~org-latex-hyperref-template~, ~org-latex-title-command~ formatting
|
||
|
||
New formatting keys are supported. See the respective docstrings.
|
||
Note, ~org-latex-hyperref-template~ has a new default value.
|
||
|
||
*** ~float, wasysym, marvosym~ are removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~
|
||
|
||
If you require any of these package add them to your preamble via
|
||
~org-latex-packages-alist~. Org also uses default LaTeX ~\tolerance~ now.
|
||
|
||
*** When exporting, throw an error on unresolved id/fuzzy links and code refs
|
||
|
||
This helps spotting wrong links.
|
||
|
||
* Version 8.2
|
||
|
||
** Incompatible changes
|
||
*** =ob-sh.el= renamed to =ob-shell=
|
||
This may require two changes in user config.
|
||
|
||
1. In =org-babel-do-load-languages=, change =(sh . t)= to =(shell . t)=.
|
||
2. Edit =local.mk= files to change the value of =BTEST_OB_LANGUAGES=
|
||
to remove "sh" and include "shell".
|
||
|
||
*** Combine org-mac-message.el and org-mac-link-grabber into org-mac-link.el
|
||
|
||
Please remove calls to =(require 'org-mac-message)= and =(require
|
||
'org-mac-link-grabber)= in your =.emacs= initialization file. All you
|
||
need now is =(require 'org-mac-link)=.
|
||
|
||
Additionally, replace any calls to =ogml-grab-link= to
|
||
=org-mac-grab-link=. For example, replace this line:
|
||
|
||
: (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'omgl-grab-link)
|
||
|
||
with this:
|
||
|
||
: (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'org-mac-grab-link)
|
||
|
||
*** HTML export: Replace =HTML_HTML5_FANCY= by =:html-html5-fancy= (...)
|
||
|
||
Some of the HTML specific export options in Org <8.1 are either nil or
|
||
t, like =#+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=. We replaced these binary options with
|
||
option keywords like :html-include-style.
|
||
|
||
So you need to replace
|
||
|
||
: #+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE: t
|
||
|
||
by
|
||
|
||
: #+OPTIONS: :html-include-style t
|
||
|
||
Options affected by this change: =HTML5_FANCY=, =HTML_INCLUDE_SCRIPTS=
|
||
and =HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=.
|
||
|
||
*** Add an argument to ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-buffer~
|
||
~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-file~ can run in a different
|
||
process when provided a non-nil =ASYNC= optional argument, without
|
||
relying on ~org-export-async-start~ macro.
|
||
|
||
Since =ASYNC= is the first of optional arguments, you have to shift
|
||
the other optional arguments accordingly.
|
||
|
||
*** Export back-ends are now structures
|
||
|
||
Export back-ends are now structures, and stored as such in the
|
||
communication channel during an export process. In other words, from
|
||
now on, ~(plist-get info :back-end)~ will return a structure instead
|
||
of a symbol.
|
||
|
||
Arguments in hooks and in filters are still symbols, though.
|
||
|
||
** Important bugfixes
|
||
|
||
*** [[doc:org-insert-heading][org-insert-heading]] has been rewritten and bugs are now fixed
|
||
*** The replacement of disputed keys is now turned of when reading a date
|
||
|
||
*** Match string for sparse trees can now contain a slash in a property value
|
||
|
||
You can now have searches like SOMEPROP="aaa/bbb". Until now,
|
||
this would break because the slash would be interpreted as the
|
||
separator starting a TOTO match string.
|
||
** New features
|
||
|
||
*** =C-c ^ x= will now sort checklist items by their checked status
|
||
|
||
See [[doc:org-sort-list][org-sort-list]]: hitting =C-c ^ x= will put checked items at the end
|
||
of the list.
|
||
*** Various LaTeX export enhancements
|
||
|
||
- Support SVG images
|
||
- Support for .pgf files
|
||
- LaTeX Babel blocks can now be exported as =.tikz= files
|
||
- Allow =latexmk= as an option for [[doc:org-latex-pdf-process][org-latex-pdf-process]]
|
||
- When using =\usepackage[AUTO]{babel}=, AUTO will automatically be
|
||
replaced with a value compatible with ~org-export-default-language~
|
||
or ~LANGUAGE~ keyword.
|
||
- The dependency on the =latexsym= LaTeX package has been removed, we
|
||
now use =amssymb= symbols by default instead.
|
||
|
||
*** New functions for paragraph motion
|
||
|
||
The commands =C-down= and =C-up= now invoke special commands
|
||
that use knowledge from the org-elements parser to move the cursor
|
||
in a paragraph-like way.
|
||
|
||
*** New entities in =org-entities.el=
|
||
|
||
Add support for ell, imath, jmath, varphi, varpi, aleph, gimel, beth,
|
||
dalet, cdots, S (§), dag, ddag, colon, therefore, because, triangleq,
|
||
leq, geq, lessgtr, lesseqgtr, ll, lll, gg, ggg, prec, preceq,
|
||
preccurlyeq, succ, succeq, succurlyeq, setminus, nexist(s), mho,
|
||
check, frown, diamond. Changes loz, vert, checkmark, smile and tilde.
|
||
|
||
*** Anonymous export back-ends
|
||
|
||
~org-export-create-backend~ can create anonymous export back-ends,
|
||
which can then be passed to export functions like
|
||
~org-export-to-file~, ~org-export-to-buffer~ or ~org-export-as~.
|
||
|
||
It allows for quick translation of Org syntax without the overhead of
|
||
registering a new back-end.
|
||
|
||
*** New agenda fortnight view
|
||
|
||
The agenda has not, in addition to day, week, month, and year
|
||
views, also a fortnight view covering 14 days.
|
||
** New options
|
||
|
||
*** New option [[doc:org-bookmark-names-plist][org-bookmark-names-plist]]
|
||
|
||
This allows to specify the names of automatic bookmarks.
|
||
*** New option [[doc:org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties][org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties]]
|
||
|
||
This allows more flexibility when optimizing the agenda generation.
|
||
See https://orgmode.org/worg/agenda-optimization.html for details.
|
||
*** New option: [[doc:org-html-link-use-abs-url][org-html-link-use-abs-url]] to force using absolute URLs
|
||
|
||
This is an export/publishing option, and should be used either within
|
||
the =#+OPTIONS= line(s) or within a [[doc:org-publish-project-alist][org-publish-project-alist]].
|
||
|
||
Setting this option to =t= is needed when the HTML output does not
|
||
allow relative URLs. For example, the =contrib/lisp/ox-rss.el=
|
||
library produces a RSS feed, and RSS feeds need to use absolute URLs,
|
||
so a combination of =:html-link-home "..." and :html-link-use-abs-url
|
||
t= is required---see the configuration example in the comment section
|
||
of =ox-rss.el=.
|
||
|
||
*** New option [[doc:org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd][org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd]]
|
||
|
||
This makes java executable configurable for ditaa blocks.
|
||
|
||
*** New options [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex][org-babel-latex-htlatex]] and [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages][org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages]]
|
||
|
||
This enables SVG generation from latex code blocks.
|
||
|
||
*** New option: [[doc:org-habit-show-done-always-green][org-habit-show-done-always-green]]
|
||
|
||
See [[https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-orgmode/2013-05/msg00214.html][this message]] from Max Mikhanosha.
|
||
|
||
*** New option: [[doc:org-babel-inline-result-wrap][org-babel-inline-result-wrap]]
|
||
|
||
If you set this to the following
|
||
|
||
: (setq org-babel-inline-result-wrap "$%s$")
|
||
|
||
then inline code snippets will be wrapped into the formatting string.
|
||
|
||
*** New option: [[doc:org-special-ctrl-o][org-special-ctrl-o]]
|
||
|
||
This variable can be used to turn off the special behavior of =C-o= in tables.
|
||
** New contributed packages
|
||
|
||
- =ox-bibtex.el= by Nicolas Goaziou :: an utility to handle BibTeX
|
||
export to both LaTeX and HTML exports. It uses the [[http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/][bibtex2html]]
|
||
software.
|
||
|
||
- =org-screenshot.el= by Max Mikhanosha :: an utility to handle
|
||
screenshots easily from Org, using the external tool [[http://freecode.com/projects/scrot][scrot]].
|
||
|
||
** Miscellaneous
|
||
|
||
*** "QUOTE" keywords in headlines are deprecated
|
||
|
||
"QUOTE" keywords are an undocumented feature in Org. When a headline
|
||
starts with the keyword "QUOTE", its contents are parsed as
|
||
a ~quote-section~ and treated as an example block. You can achieve
|
||
the same with example blocks.
|
||
|
||
This feature is deprecated and will be removed in the next Org
|
||
release.
|
||
|
||
* Version 8.0.1
|
||
|
||
** Installation
|
||
|
||
Installation instructions have been updated and simplified.
|
||
|
||
If you have troubles installing or updating Org, focus on these
|
||
instructions:
|
||
|
||
- when updating via a =.zip/.tar.gz= file, you only need to set the =load-path= in your =.emacs=. Set it before any other Org
|
||
customization that would call autoloaded Org functions.
|
||
|
||
- when updating by pulling Org's Git repository, make sure to create the
|
||
correct autoloads. You can do this by running =~$ make autoloads= (to
|
||
only create the autoloads) or by running =~$ make= (to also compile
|
||
the Emacs lisp files.) =~$ make help= and =~$ make helpall= gives you
|
||
detailed explanations.
|
||
|
||
- when updating through ELPA (either from GNU ELPA or from Org ELPA),
|
||
you have to install Org's ELPA package in a session where no Org
|
||
function has been called already.
|
||
|
||
When in doubt, run =M-x org-version RET= and see if you have a mixed-up
|
||
installation.
|
||
|
||
See https://orgmode.org/org.html#Installation for details.
|
||
|
||
** Incompatible changes
|
||
|
||
Org 8.0 is the most disruptive major version of Org.
|
||
|
||
If you configured export options, you will have to update some of them.
|
||
|
||
If you used =#+ATTR_*= keywords, the syntax of the attributes changed and
|
||
you will have to update them.
|
||
|
||
Below is a list of changes for which you need to take action.
|
||
|
||
See https://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html for the most recent version of
|
||
this list and for detailed instructions on how to migrate.
|
||
|
||
**** New export engine
|
||
|
||
Org 8.0 comes with a new export engine written by Nicolas Goaziou. This
|
||
export engine relies on ~org-element.el~ (Org's syntax parser), which was
|
||
already in Org's core. This new export engine triggered the rewriting of
|
||
/all/ export back-ends.
|
||
|
||
The most visible change is the export dispatcher, accessible through the
|
||
keybinding =C-c C-e=. By default, this menu only shows some of the
|
||
built-in export formats, but you can add more formats by loading them
|
||
directly (e.g., =(require 'ox-texinfo)= or by configuring the option
|
||
[[doc:org-export-backends][org-export-backends]].
|
||
|
||
More contributed back-ends are available from the =contrib/= directory, the
|
||
corresponding files start with the =ox-= prefix.
|
||
|
||
If you customized an export back-end (like HTML or LaTeX), you will need to
|
||
rename some options so that your customization is not lost. Typically, an
|
||
option starting with =org-export-html-= is now named =org-html-=. See the
|
||
manual for details and check [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html][this Worg page]] for directions.
|
||
|
||
**** New syntax for #+ATTR_HTML/LaTeX/... options
|
||
|
||
: #+ATTR_HTML width="200px"
|
||
|
||
should now be written
|
||
|
||
: #+ATTR_HTML :width 200px
|
||
|
||
Keywords like =#+ATTR_HTML= and =#+ATTR_LaTeX= are defined in their
|
||
respective back-ends, and the list of supported parameters depends on
|
||
each backend. See Org's manual for details.
|
||
|
||
**** ~org-remember.el~ has been removed
|
||
|
||
You cannot use =remember.el= anymore to capture notes.
|
||
|
||
Support for remember templates has been obsoleted since long, it is
|
||
now fully removed.
|
||
|
||
Use =M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET= to import your
|
||
remember templates into capture templates.
|
||
|
||
**** ~org-jsinfo.el~ has been merged into ~ox-html.el~
|
||
|
||
If you were requiring ~ox-jsinfo.el~ in your ~.emacs.el~ file, you
|
||
will have to remove this requirement from your initialization file.
|
||
|
||
**** Note for third-party developers
|
||
|
||
The name of the files for export back-end have changed: we now use the
|
||
prefix =ox-= for those files (like we use the =ob-= prefix for Babel
|
||
files.) For example ~org-html.el~ is now ~ox-html.el~.
|
||
|
||
If your code relies on these files, please update the names in your
|
||
code.
|
||
|
||
**** Packages moved from core to contrib
|
||
|
||
Since packages in Org's core are meant to be part of GNU Emacs, we try
|
||
to be minimalist when it comes to adding files into core. For 8.0, we
|
||
moved some contributions into the =contrib/= directory.
|
||
|
||
The rationale for deciding that these files should live in =contrib/=
|
||
is either because they rely on third-party software that is not
|
||
included in Emacs, or because they are not targeting a significant
|
||
user-base.
|
||
|
||
- org-colview-xemacs.el
|
||
- org-mac-message.el
|
||
- org-mew.el
|
||
- org-wl.el
|
||
- ox-freedmind.el
|
||
- ox-taskjuggler.el
|
||
|
||
Note that ~ox-freedmind.el~ has been rewritten by Jambunathan, ~org-mew.el~ has been enhanced by Tokuya Kameshima and ~ox-taskjuggler.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and others.
|
||
|
||
Also, the Taskjuggler exporter now uses TJ3 by default. John Hendy
|
||
wrote [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html][a tutorial on Worg]] for the TJ3 export.
|
||
|
||
** New packages in core
|
||

|
||
|
||
** New features
|
||
|
||
*** Export
|
||
|
||
**** New export generic options
|
||
|
||
If you use Org exporter, we advise you to re-read [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Exporting][the manual section about
|
||
it]]. It has been updated and includes new options.
|
||
|
||
Among the new/updated export options, three are of particular importance:
|
||
|
||
- [[doc:org-export-allow-bind-keywords][org-export-allow-bind-keywords]] :: This option replaces the old option =org-export-allow-BIND= and the default value is =nil=, not =confirm=.
|
||
You will need to explicitly set this to =t= in your initialization
|
||
file if you want to allow =#+BIND= keywords.
|
||
|
||
- [[doc:org-export-with-planning][org-export-with-planning]] :: This new option controls the export of =SCHEDULED:, DEADLINE:, CLOSED:= lines, and planning information is
|
||
now skipped by default during export. This use to be the job of
|
||
[[doc:org-export-with-timestamps][org-export-with-timestamps]], but this latter option has been given a
|
||
new role: it controls the export of /standalone time-stamps/. When
|
||
set to =nil=, Org will not export active and inactive time-stamps
|
||
standing on a line by themselves or within a paragraph that only
|
||
contains time-stamps.
|
||
|
||
To check if an option has been introduced or its default value changed in
|
||
Org 8.0, do =C-h v [option] RET= and check if the documentation says that
|
||
the variable has been introduced (or changed) in version 24.4 of Emacs.
|
||
|
||
**** Enhanced default stylesheet for the HTML exporter
|
||
|
||
See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-style-default][org-html-style-default]].
|
||
|
||
**** New tags, classes and ids for the HTML exporter
|
||
|
||
See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-divs][org-html-divs]].
|
||
|
||
**** Support for tikz pictures in LaTeX export
|
||
**** ~org-man.el~: New export function for "man" links
|
||
**** ~org-docview.el~: New export function for docview links
|
||
*** Structure editing
|
||
|
||
**** =C-u C-u M-RET= inserts a heading at the end of the parent subtree
|
||
**** Cycling to the =CONTENTS= view keeps inline tasks folded
|
||
|
||
[[doc:org-cycle-hook][org-cycle-hook]] as a new function [[doc:org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks][org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks]] which
|
||
prevents the display of inline tasks when showing the content of a subtree.
|
||
|
||
**** =C-c -= in a region makes a list item for each line
|
||
|
||
This is the opposite of the previous behavior, where =C-c -= on a region
|
||
would create one item for the whole region, and where =C-u C-c -= would
|
||
create an item for each line. Now =C-c -= on the selected region creates
|
||
an item per line, and =C-u C-c -= creates a single item for the whole
|
||
region.
|
||
|
||
**** When transposing words, markup characters are now part of the words
|
||
|
||
In Emacs, you can transpose words with =M-t=. Transposing =*these*
|
||
_words__= will preserve markup.
|
||
|
||
**** New command [[doc:org-set-property-and-value][org-set-property-and-value]] bound to =C-c C-x P=
|
||
|
||
This command allows you to quickly add both the property and its value. It
|
||
is useful in buffers where there are many properties and where =C-c C-x p=
|
||
can slow down the flow of editing too much.
|
||
|
||
**** New commands [[doc:org-next-block][org-next-block]] and [[doc:org-previous-block][org-previous-block]]
|
||
|
||
These commands allow you to go to the previous block (=C-c M-b= or the
|
||
speedy key =B=) or to the next block (=C-c M-f= or the speedy key =F=.)
|
||
|
||
**** New commands [[doc:org-drag-line-forward][org-drag-line-forward]] and [[doc:org-drag-line-backward][org-drag-line-backward]]
|
||
|
||
These commands emulate the old behavior of =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= but are
|
||
now bound to =S-M-<down>= and =S-M-<up>= respectively, since =M-<down>= and
|
||
=M-<up>= now drag the whole element at point (a paragraph, a table, etc.)
|
||
forward and backward.
|
||
|
||
**** When a list item has a checkbox, inserting a new item uses a checkbox too
|
||
**** When sorting entries/items, only the description of links is considered
|
||
|
||
Now Org will sort this list
|
||
|
||
: - [[http://abc.org][B]]
|
||
: - [[http://def.org][A]]
|
||
|
||
like this:
|
||
|
||
: - [[http://def.org][A]]
|
||
: - [[http://abc.org][B]]
|
||
|
||
by comparing the descriptions, not the links.
|
||
Same when sorting headlines instead of list items.
|
||
**** New option =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp=
|
||
|
||
For example, setting this option to "^;;; " in Emacs lisp files and using
|
||
=orgstruct-mode= in those files will allow you to cycle through visibility
|
||
states as if lines starting with ";;; *..." where headlines.
|
||
|
||
In general, you want to set =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= as a file
|
||
local variable.
|
||
|
||
**** New behavior of [[doc:org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift][org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift]]
|
||
|
||
The default is now to ask for a time-shift only when there is a time-stamp.
|
||
When called with a universal prefix argument =C-u=, it will not ask for a
|
||
time-shift even if there is a time-stamp.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree][org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree]]
|
||
|
||
This defaults to =t= so that the whole subtree is highlighted when you
|
||
restrict the agenda view to it with =C-c C-x <= (or the speed command =<=).
|
||
The default setting helps ensuring that you are not adding tasks after the
|
||
restricted region. If you find this highlighting too intrusive, set this
|
||
option to =nil=.
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]]
|
||
|
||
When switching back from a =DONE= keyword to a =TODO= keyword, Org now
|
||
removes the =CLOSED= planning information, if any. It also removes this
|
||
information when going back to a non-TODO state (e.g., with =C-c C-t SPC=).
|
||
If you want to keep the =CLOSED= planning information when removing the
|
||
TODO keyword, set [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] to =t=.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-image-actual-width][org-image-actual-width]]
|
||
|
||
This option allows you to change the width of in-buffer displayed images.
|
||
The default is to use the actual width of the image, but you can use a
|
||
fixed value for all images, or fall back on an attribute like
|
||
|
||
: #+attr_html: :width 300px
|
||
*** Scheduled/deadline
|
||
|
||
**** Implement "delay" cookies for scheduled items
|
||
|
||
If you want to delay the display of a scheduled task in the agenda, you can
|
||
now use a delay cookie like this: =SCHEDULED: <2004-12-25 Sat -2d>=. The
|
||
task is still scheduled on the 25th but will appear in your agenda starting
|
||
from two days later (i.e. from March 27th.)
|
||
|
||
Imagine for example that your co-workers are not done in due time and tell
|
||
you "we need two more days". In that case, you may want to delay the
|
||
display of the task in your agenda by two days, but you still want the task
|
||
to appear as scheduled on March 25th.
|
||
|
||
In case the task contains a repeater, the delay is considered to affect all
|
||
occurrences; if you want the delay to only affect the first scheduled
|
||
occurrence of the task, use =--2d= instead. See [[doc:org-scheduled-delay-days][org-scheduled-delay-days]]
|
||
and [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline]] for details on how to
|
||
control this globally or per agenda.
|
||
|
||
**** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-s= will insert a delay cookie for scheduled tasks
|
||
|
||
See the previous section for why delay cookies may be useful.
|
||
|
||
**** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-d= will insert a warning delay for deadline tasks
|
||
=C-u C-u C-c C-d= now inserts a warning delay to deadlines.
|
||
*** Calendar, diary and appts
|
||
|
||
**** New variable [[doc:org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map][org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map]]
|
||
|
||
By default, this new local map uses "." to go to today's date, like in the
|
||
normal =M-x calendar RET=. If you want to deactivate this and to reassign
|
||
the "@" key to =calendar-goto-today=, use this:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||
;; Unbind "." in Org's calendar:
|
||
(define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map (kbd ".") nil)
|
||
|
||
;; Bind "@" to `calendar-goto-today':
|
||
(define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map
|
||
(kbd "@")
|
||
(lambda () (interactive) (org-eval-in-calendar '(calendar-goto-today))))
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
**** In Org's calendar, =!= displays diary entries of the date at point
|
||
|
||
This is useful when you want to check if you don't already have an
|
||
appointment when setting new ones with =C-c .= or =C-c s=. =!= will
|
||
call =diary-view-entries= and display the diary in a separate buffer.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]]: only keep the descriptions of links
|
||
|
||
[[doc:org-diary][org-diary]] returns diary information from Org files, but it returns it
|
||
in a diary buffer, not in an Org mode buffer. When links are displayed,
|
||
only show their description, not the full links.
|
||
*** Agenda
|
||
|
||
**** New agenda type =agenda*= and entry types =:scheduled* :deadline*=
|
||
|
||
When defining agenda custom commands, you can now use =agenda*=: this will
|
||
list entries that have both a date and a time. This is useful when you
|
||
want to build a list of appointments.
|
||
|
||
You can also set [[doc:org-agenda-entry-types][org-agenda-entry-types]] either globally or locally in
|
||
each agenda custom command and use =:timestamp*= and/or =:deadline*= there.
|
||
|
||
Another place where this is useful is your =.diary= file:
|
||
|
||
: %%(org-diary :scheduled*) ~/org/rdv.org
|
||
|
||
This will list only entries from =~/org/rdv.org= that are scheduled with a
|
||
time value (i.e. appointments).
|
||
|
||
**** New agenda sorting strategies
|
||
|
||
[[doc:org-agenda-sorting-strategy][org-agenda-sorting-strategy]] allows these new sorting strategies:
|
||
|
||
| Strategy | Explanations |
|
||
|----------------+------------------------------------------|
|
||
| timestamp-up | Sort by any timestamp, early first |
|
||
| timestamp-down | Sort by any timestamp, late first |
|
||
| scheduled-up | Sort by scheduled timestamp, early first |
|
||
| scheduled-down | Sort by scheduled timestamp, late first |
|
||
| deadline-up | Sort by deadline timestamp, early first |
|
||
| deadline-down | Sort by deadline timestamp, late first |
|
||
| ts-up | Sort by active timestamp, early first |
|
||
| ts-down | Sort by active timestamp, late first |
|
||
| tsia-up | Sort by inactive timestamp, early first |
|
||
| tsia-down | Sort by inactive timestamp, late first |
|
||
|
||
**** New options to limit the number of agenda entries
|
||
|
||
You can now limit the number of entries in an agenda view. This is
|
||
different from filters: filters only /hide/ the entries in the agenda,
|
||
while limits are set while generating the list of agenda entries.
|
||
|
||
These new options are available:
|
||
|
||
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-entries][org-agenda-max-entries]] :: limit by number of entries.
|
||
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] :: limit by number of TODOs.
|
||
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-tags][org-agenda-max-tags]] :: limit by number of tagged entries.
|
||
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-effort][org-agenda-max-effort]] :: limit by effort (minutes).
|
||
|
||
For example, if you locally set [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] to 3 in an agenda
|
||
view, the agenda will be limited to the first three todos. Other entries
|
||
without a TODO keyword or beyond the third TODO headline will be ignored.
|
||
|
||
When setting a limit (e.g. about an effort's sum), the default behavior is
|
||
to exclude entries that cannot be checked against (e.g. entries that have
|
||
no effort property.) To include other entries too, you can set the limit
|
||
to a negative number. For example =(setq org-agenda-max-tags -3)= will not
|
||
show the fourth tagged headline (and beyond), but it will also show
|
||
non-tagged headlines.
|
||
|
||
**** =~= in agenda view sets temporary limits
|
||
|
||
You can hit =~= in the agenda to temporarily set limits: this will
|
||
regenerate the agenda as if the limits were set. This is useful for
|
||
example when you want to only see a list of =N= tasks, or a list of tasks
|
||
that take only =N= minutes.
|
||
|
||
**** "=" in agenda view filters by regular expressions
|
||
|
||
You can now filter agenda entries by regular expressions using ~=~. =C-u
|
||
== will filter entries out. Regexp filters are cumulative. You can set
|
||
[[doc:org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset][org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset]] to suit your needs in each agenda view.
|
||
|
||
**** =|= in agenda view resets all filters
|
||
|
||
Since it's common to combine tag filters, category filters, and now regexp
|
||
filters, there is a new command =|= to reset all filters at once.
|
||
|
||
**** Allow writing an agenda to an =.org= file
|
||
|
||
You can now write an agenda view to an =.org= file. It copies the
|
||
headlines and their content (but not subheadings) into the new file.
|
||
|
||
This is useful when you want to quickly share an agenda containing the full
|
||
list of notes.
|
||
|
||
**** New commands to drag an agenda line forward (=M-<down>=) or backward (=M-<up>=)
|
||
|
||
It sometimes handy to move agenda lines around, just to quickly reorganize
|
||
your tasks, or maybe before saving the agenda to a file. Now you can use
|
||
=M-<down>= and =M-<up>= to move the line forward or backward.
|
||
|
||
This does not persist after a refresh of the agenda, and this does not
|
||
change the =.org= files who contribute to the agenda.
|
||
|
||
**** Use =%b= for displaying "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view
|
||
|
||
[[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] now allows to use a =%b= formatter to tell Org
|
||
to display "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view.
|
||
|
||
This is useful when you want to display the task hierarchy in your agenda.
|
||
|
||
**** Use =%l= for displaying the headline's level in the agenda view
|
||
|
||
[[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] allows to use a =%l= formatter to tell Org to
|
||
display entries with additional spaces corresponding to their level in the
|
||
outline tree.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc:org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] will ask before overwriting an existing file
|
||
=M-x org-agenda-write RET= (or =C-c C-w= from an agenda buffer) used to
|
||
overwrite preexisting file with the same name without confirmation. It now
|
||
asks for a confirmation.
|
||
|
||
**** New commands =M-m= and =M-*= to toggle (all) mark(s) for bulk action
|
||
|
||
- [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle][org-agenda-bulk-toggle]] :: this command is bound to =M-m= and toggles
|
||
the mark of the entry at point.
|
||
|
||
- [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all][org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all]] :: this command is bound to =M-*= and
|
||
toggles all the marks in the current agenda.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level][org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level]]
|
||
|
||
This option sets the maximum outline level to display in search view.
|
||
E.g. when this is set to 1, the search view will only show headlines of
|
||
level 1.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds][org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds]]
|
||
|
||
This allows to compare times using seconds instead of days when honoring
|
||
options like =org-agenda-todo-ignore-*= in the agenda display.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-entry-text-leaders][org-agenda-entry-text-leaders]]
|
||
|
||
This allows you to get rid of the ">" character that gets added in front of
|
||
entries excerpts when hitting =E= in the agenda view.
|
||
|
||
**** New formatting string for past deadlines in [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]
|
||
|
||
The default formatting for past deadlines is ="%2d d. ago: "=, which makes
|
||
it explicit that the deadline is in the past. You can configure this via
|
||
[[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]. Note that the width of the formatting
|
||
string is important to keep the agenda alignment clean.
|
||
|
||
**** New allowed value =repeated-after-deadline= for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]]
|
||
|
||
When [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] is set to
|
||
=repeated-after-deadline=, the agenda will skip scheduled items if they are
|
||
repeated beyond the current deadline.
|
||
|
||
**** New option for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled][org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled]]
|
||
|
||
This variable may be set to nil, t, the symbol `pre-scheduled', or a number
|
||
which will then give the number of days before the actual deadline when the
|
||
prewarnings should resume. The symbol `pre-scheduled' eliminates the
|
||
deadline prewarning only prior to the scheduled date.
|
||
|
||
Read the full docstring for details.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc:org-class][org-class]] now supports holiday strings in the skip-weeks parameter
|
||
|
||
For example, this task will now be skipped only on new year's day:
|
||
|
||
: * Task
|
||
: <%%(org-class 2012 1 1 2013 12 12 2 "New Year's Day")>
|
||
*** Capture
|
||
|
||
**** Allow =C-1= as a prefix for [[doc:org-agenda-capture][org-agenda-capture]] and [[doc:org-capture][org-capture]]
|
||
|
||
With a =C-1= prefix, the capture mechanism will use the =HH:MM= value at
|
||
point (if any) or the current =HH:MM= time as the default time for the
|
||
capture template.
|
||
|
||
**** Expand keywords within %(sexp) placeholder in capture templates
|
||
|
||
If you use a =%:keyword= construct within a =%(sexp)= construct, Org will
|
||
expand the keywords before expanding the =%(sexp)=.
|
||
|
||
**** Allow to contextualize capture (and agenda) commands by checking the name of the buffer
|
||
|
||
[[doc:org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] and [[doc:org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]]
|
||
allow you to define what capture templates and what agenda commands should
|
||
be available in various contexts. It is now possible for the context to
|
||
check against the name of the buffer.
|
||
*** Tag groups
|
||
|
||
Using =#+TAGS: { Tag1 : Tag2 Tag3 }= will define =Tag1= as a /group tag/
|
||
(note the colon after =Tag1=). If you search for =Tag1=, it will return
|
||
headlines containing either =Tag1=, =Tag2= or =Tag3= (or any combination
|
||
of those tags.)
|
||
|
||
You can use group tags for sparse tree in an Org buffer, for creating
|
||
agenda views, and for filtering.
|
||
|
||
See https://orgmode.org/org.html#Tag-groups for details.
|
||
|
||
*** Links
|
||
|
||
**** =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= will ignore non-core link functions
|
||
|
||
Org knows how to store links from Org buffers, from info files and from
|
||
other Emacs buffers. Org can be taught how to store links from any buffer
|
||
through new link protocols (see [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Adding-hyperlink-types]["Adding hyperlink types"]] in the manual.)
|
||
|
||
Sometimes you want Org to ignore added link protocols and store the link
|
||
as if the protocol was not known.
|
||
|
||
You can now do this with =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET=.
|
||
|
||
**** =C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= on an active region will store links for each lines
|
||
|
||
Imagine for example that you want to store a link for every message in a
|
||
Gnus summary buffer. In that case =C-x h C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link
|
||
RET= will store a link for every line (i.e. message) if the region is
|
||
active.
|
||
|
||
**** =C-c C-M-l= will add a default description for links which don't have one
|
||
|
||
=C-c C-M-l= inserts all stored links. If a link does not have a
|
||
description, this command now adds a default one, so that we are not mixing
|
||
with-description and without-description links when inserting them.
|
||
|
||
**** No curly braces to bracket links within internal links
|
||
|
||
When storing a link to a headline like
|
||
|
||
: * See [[https://orgmode.org][Org website]]
|
||
|
||
[[doc:org-store-link][org-store-link]] used to convert the square brackets into curly brackets.
|
||
It does not anymore, taking the link description or the link path, when
|
||
there is no description.
|
||
*** Table
|
||
|
||
**** Switching between #+TBLFM lines
|
||
|
||
If you have several =#+TBLFM= lines below a table, =C-c C-c= on a line will
|
||
apply the formulas from this line, and =C-c C-c= on another line will apply
|
||
those other formulas.
|
||
|
||
**** You now use "nan" for empty fields in Calc formulas
|
||
|
||
If empty fields are of interest, it is recommended to reread the section
|
||
[[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc][3.5.2 Formula syntax for Calc]] of the manual because the description for the
|
||
mode strings has been clarified and new examples have been added towards
|
||
the end.
|
||
|
||
**** Handle localized time-stamps in formulas evaluation
|
||
|
||
If your =LOCALE= is set so that Org time-stamps use another language than
|
||
english, and if you make time computations in Org's table, it now works by
|
||
internally converting the time-stamps with a temporary =LOCALE=C= before
|
||
doing computation.
|
||
|
||
**** New lookup functions
|
||
|
||
There are now three lookup functions:
|
||
|
||
- [[doc:org-loopup-first][org-loopup-first]]
|
||
- [[doc:org-loopup-last][org-loopup-last]]
|
||
- [[doc:org-loopup-all][org-loopup-all]]
|
||
|
||
See [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Lookup-functions][the manual]] for details.
|
||
*** Startup keywords
|
||
|
||
These new startup keywords are now available:
|
||
|
||
| Startup keyword | Option |
|
||
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
|
||
| =#+STARTUP: logdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer t)= |
|
||
| =#+STARTUP: nologdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer nil)= |
|
||
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
|
||
| =#+STARTUP: logstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed t)= |
|
||
| =#+STARTUP: nologstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed nil)= |
|
||
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
|
||
| =#+STARTUP: latexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview t)= |
|
||
| =#+STARTUP: nolatexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview nil)= |
|
||
|
||
*** Clocking
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]]
|
||
|
||
E.g. if [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] is set to 5, time is 14:47 and you
|
||
clock in: then the clock starts at 14:45. If you clock out within the next
|
||
5 minutes, the clock line will be removed; if you clock out 8 minutes after
|
||
your clocked in, the clock out time will be 14:50.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations][org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations]]
|
||
|
||
When non-nil, =C-c C-x C-d= uses effort durations. E.g., by default, one
|
||
day is considered to be a 8 hours effort, so a task that has been clocked
|
||
for 16 hours will be displayed as during 2 days in the clock display or in
|
||
the clocktable.
|
||
|
||
See [[doc:org-effort-durations][org-effort-durations]] on how to set effort durations and
|
||
[[doc:org-time-clocksum-format][org-time-clocksum-format]] for more on time clock formats.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-clock-x11idle-program-name][org-clock-x11idle-program-name]]
|
||
|
||
This allows to set the name of the program which prints X11 idle time in
|
||
milliseconds. The default is to use =x11idle=.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time][org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time]]
|
||
|
||
When non-nil, use the last clock out time for [[doc:org-todo][org-todo]]. Note that this
|
||
option has precedence over the combined use of [[doc:org-use-effective-time][org-use-effective-time]] and
|
||
[[doc:org-extend-today-until][org-extend-today-until]].
|
||
|
||
**** =S-<left/right>= on a clocksum column will update the sum by updating the last clock
|
||
**** =C-u 3 C-S-<up/down>= will update clock timestamps synchronously by 3 units
|
||
**** New parameter =:wstart= for clocktables to define the week start day
|
||
**** New parameter =:mstart= to state the starting day of the month
|
||
**** Allow relative times in clocktable tstart and tend options
|
||
**** The clocktable summary is now a caption
|
||
**** =:tstart= and =:tend= and friends allow relative times like "<-1w>" or "<now>"
|
||
*** Babel
|
||
|
||
**** You can now use =C-c C-k= for [[doc:org-edit-src-abort][org-edit-src-abort]]
|
||
|
||
This allows you to quickly cancel editing a source block.
|
||
|
||
**** =C-u C-u M-x org-babel-tangle RET= tangles by the target file of the block at point
|
||
|
||
This is handy if you want to tangle all source code blocks that have the
|
||
same target than the block at point.
|
||
|
||
**** New options for auto-saving the base buffer or the source block editing buffer
|
||
|
||
When [[doc:org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save][org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save]] is set to =t=, editing a source block
|
||
in a new window will turn on =auto-save-mode= and save the code in a new
|
||
file under the same directory than the base Org file.
|
||
|
||
When [[doc:org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay][org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay]] is set to a number of minutes =N=,
|
||
the base Org buffer will be saved after this number of minutes of idle
|
||
time.
|
||
|
||
**** New =:post= header argument post-processes results
|
||
|
||
This header argument may be used to pass the results of the current
|
||
code block through another code block for post-processing. See the
|
||
manual for a usage example.
|
||
|
||
**** Commented out heading are ignored when collecting blocks for tangling
|
||
|
||
If you comment out a heading (with =C-c ;= anywhere on the heading or in
|
||
the subtree), code blocks from within this heading are now ignored when
|
||
collecting blocks for tangling.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc:org-babel-hash-show-time][org-babel-hash-show-time]] to show a time-stamp in the result hash
|
||
**** Do not ask for confirmation if cached value is current
|
||
|
||
Do not run [[doc:org-babel-confirm-evaluate][org-babel-confirm-evaluate]] if source block has a cache and the
|
||
cache value is current as there is no evaluation involved in this case.
|
||
**** =ob-sql.el= and =ob-python.el= have been improved.
|
||
**** New Babel files only need to =(require 'ob)=
|
||
|
||
When writing a new Babel file, you now only need to use =(require 'ob)=
|
||
instead of requiring each Babel library one by one.
|
||
*** Faces
|
||
|
||
- Org now fontifies radio link targets by default
|
||
- In the agenda, use [[doc:org-todo-keyword-faces][org-todo-keyword-faces]] to highlight selected TODO keywords
|
||
- New face [[doc:org-priority][org-priority]], enhanced fontification of priority cookies in agenda
|
||
- New face [[doc:org-tag-group][org-tag-group]] for group tags
|
||
|
||
** Miscellaneous
|
||
|
||
- New speedy key =s= pour [[doc:org-narrow-to-subtree][org-narrow-to-subtree]]
|
||
- Handling of [[doc:org-html-table-row][org-html-table-row]] has been updated (incompatible change)
|
||
- [[doc:org-export-html-table-tag][org-export-html-table-tag]] is replaced by [[doc:org-html-table-default-attributes][org-html-table-default-attributes]]
|
||
- Support using =git-annex= with Org attachments
|
||
- org-protocol: Pass optional value using query in url to capture from protocol
|
||
- When the refile history is empty, use the current filename as default
|
||
- When you cannot change the TODO state of a task, Org displays the blocking task
|
||
- New option [[doc:org-mobile-allpriorities][org-mobile-allpriorities]]
|
||
- org-bibtex.el now use =visual-line-mode= instead of the deprecated =longlines-mode=
|
||
- [[doc:org-format-latex-options][org-format-latex-options]] allows to set the foreground/background colors automatically
|
||
- New option [[doc:org-archive-file-header-format][org-archive-file-header-format]]
|
||
- New "neg" entity in [[doc:org-entities][org-entities]]
|
||
- New function [[doc:org-docview-export][org-docview-export]] to export docview links
|
||
- New =:eps= header argument for ditaa code blocks
|
||
- New option [[doc:org-gnus-no-server][org-gnus-no-server]] to start Gnus with =gnus-no-server=
|
||
- Org is now distributed with =htmlize.el= version 1.43
|
||
- ~org-drill.el~ has been updated to version 2.3.7
|
||
- ~org-mac-iCal.el~ now supports OS X versions up to 10.8
|
||
- Various improvements to ~org-contacts.el~ and =orgpan.el=
|
||
|
||
** Outside Org
|
||
|
||
*** Spanish translation of the Org guide by David Arroyo Menéndez
|
||
|
||
David (and others) translated the Org compact guide in spanish:
|
||
|
||
You can read the [[https://orgmode.org/worg/orgguide/orgguide.es.pdf][PDF guide]].
|
||
|
||
*** ~poporg.el~ and ~outorg.el~
|
||
|
||
Two new libraries (~poporg.el~ by François Pinard and ~outorg.el~ by
|
||
Thorsten Jolitz) now enable editing of comment-sections from source-code
|
||
buffers in temporary Org-mode buffers, making the full editing power of
|
||
Org-mode available. ~outorg.el~ comes together with ~outshine.el~ and
|
||
~navi-mode.el~, two more libraries by Thorsten Jolitz with the goal to give
|
||
source-code buffers the /look & feel/ of Org-mode buffers while greatly
|
||
improving navigation and structure editing. A detailed description can be
|
||
found here: https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html
|
||
|
||
Here are two screencasts demonstrating Thorsten's tools:

|
||
|
||
*** MobileOrg for iOS
|
||
|
||
MobileOrg for iOS back in the App Store The 1.6.0 release was focused on
|
||
the new Dropbox API and minor bug fixes but also includes a new ability to
|
||
launch in Capture mode. Track development and contribute [[https://github.com/MobileOrg/mobileorg/issues][on github]].
|
||
|
||
* Version 7.9.3
|
||
|
||
** New option [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]]
|
||
|
||
[[doc::org-use-tag-inheritance][org-use-tag-inheritance]] controls whether tags are inherited when
|
||
org-tags-view is called (either in =tags=, =tags-tree= or =tags-todo=
|
||
agenda views.)
|
||
|
||
When generating other agenda types such as =agenda=, =todo= and
|
||
=todo-tree=, tags inheritance is not used when selecting the entries
|
||
to display. Still, you might want to have all tag information correct
|
||
in the agenda buffer, e.g. for tag filtering. In that case, add the
|
||
agenda type to this variable.
|
||
|
||
Setting this variable to nil should considerably speeds up the agenda
|
||
generation.
|
||
|
||
Note that the default was to display inherited tags in the agenda
|
||
lines even if `org-use-tag-inheritance' was nil. The default is now
|
||
to *never* display inherited tags in agenda lines, but to /know/ about
|
||
them when the agenda type is listed in [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]].
|
||
|
||
** New default value nil for [[doc::org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks][org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks]]
|
||
|
||
Using `nil' as the default value speeds up the agenda generation. You
|
||
can hit `#' (or `C-u #') in agenda buffers to temporarily dim (or turn
|
||
invisible) blocked tasks.
|
||
|
||
** New speedy keys for [[doc::org-speed-commands-default][org-speed-commands-default]]
|
||
|
||
You can now use `:' (instead of `;') for setting tags---this is
|
||
consistent with using the `:' key in agenda view.
|
||
|
||
You can now use `=' for [[doc::org-columns][org-columns]].
|
||
|
||
** =org-float= is now obsolete, use =diary-float= instead
|
||
** No GPL manual anymore
|
||
|
||
There used to be a GPL version of the Org manual, but this is not the
|
||
case anymore, the Free Software Foundation does not permit this.
|
||
|
||
The GNU FDL license is now included in the manual directly.
|
||
|
||
** Enhanced compatibility with Emacs 22 and XEmacs
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Achim for his work on enhancing Org's compatibility with
|
||
various Emacsen. Things may not be perfect, but Org should work okay
|
||
in most environments.
|
||
|
||
* Version 7.9.2
|
||
|
||
** New ELPA repository for Org packages
|
||
|
||
You can now add the Org ELPA repository like this:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/") t)
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
It contains both the =org-*.tar= package (the core Org distribution, also
|
||
available through https://elpa.gnu.org) and the =org-plus*.tar= package (the
|
||
extended Org distribution, with non-GNU packages from the =contrib/=
|
||
directory.)
|
||
|
||
See https://orgmode.org/elpa/
|
||
|
||
** Overview of the new keybindings
|
||
|
||
| Keybinding | Speedy | Command |
|
||
|-----------------+--------+-----------------------------|

|
||
|
||
** New package and Babel language
|
||
|
||
*** =org-eshell.el= by Konrad Hinsen is now in Org =org-eshell.el= allows you to create links from [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eshell/index.html][Eshell]].
|
||
|
||
*** Support for execution of Scala code blocks (see ob-scala.el)
|
||
*** Support for execution of IO code blocks (see ob-io.el)
|
||
|
||
** Incompatible changes
|
||
|
||
- If your code relies on =org-write-agenda=, please use
|
||
[[doc::org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] from now on.
|
||
|
||
- If your code relies on =org-make-link=, please use =concat=
|
||
instead.
|
||
|
||
- =org-link-to-org-use-id= has been renamed to =org-id-link-to-org-use-id= and its default value is nil. The
|
||
previous default was =create-if-interactive-and-no-custom-id=.
|
||
|
||
** New features and user-visible changes
|
||
|
||
*** Org Element =org-element.el= is a toolbox for parsing and analyzing "elements"
|
||
in an Org-mode buffer. This has been written by Nicolas Goaziou
|
||
and has been tested for quite some time. It is now part of Org's
|
||
core and many core functions rely on this package.
|
||
|
||
Two functions might be particularly handy for users: =org-element-at-point= and =org-element-context=.
|
||
|
||
See the docstrings for more details.
|
||
|
||
Below is a list of editing and navigating commands that now rely
|
||
on =org-element.el=.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc::org-fill-paragraph][org-fill-paragraph]] has been completely rewritten
|
||
|
||
The filling mechanisms now rely on org-element, trying to do the
|
||
right thing on each element in various contexts. E.g. filling in
|
||
a list item will preserve indentation; filling in message-mode
|
||
will fall back on the relevant filling functions; etc.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc::org-metaup][org-metaup]] and [[doc::org-metadown][org-metadown]] will drag the element backward/forward
|
||
|
||
If you want to get the old behavior (i.e. moving a line up and
|
||
down), you can first select the line as an active region, then =org-metaup= or =org-metadown= to move the region backward or
|
||
forward. This also works with regions bigger than just one line.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc::org-up-element][org-up-element]] and [[doc::org-down-element][org-down-element]] (respectively =C-c C-^= and =C-c C-_=)
|
||
|
||
This will move the point up/down in the hierarchy of elements.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc::org-backward-element][org-backward-element]] and [[doc::org-forward-element][org-forward-element]] (respectively =M-{= and =M-}=)
|
||
|
||
This will move the point backward/forward in the hierarchy of
|
||
elements.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc::org-narrow-to-element][org-narrow-to-element]] will narrow to the element at point
|
||
**** [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] will mark the element at point
|
||
|
||
This command is bound to =M-h= and will mark the element at
|
||
point. If the point is at a paragraph, it will mark the
|
||
paragraph. If the point is at a list item, it will mark the list
|
||
item. Etc.
|
||
|
||
Note that if point is at the beginning of a list, it will mark
|
||
the whole list.
|
||
|
||
To mark a subtree, you can either use =M-h= on the headline
|
||
(since there is no ambiguity about the element you're at) or
|
||
[[doc::org-mark-subtree][org-mark-subtree]] (=C-c @=) anywhere in the subtree.
|
||
|
||
Invoking [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] repeatedly will try to mark the next
|
||
element on top of the previous one(s). E.g. hitting =M-h= twice
|
||
on a headline will mark the current subtree and the next one on
|
||
the same level.
|
||
|
||
*** Org Agenda
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]]
|
||
|
||
There is a new option =org-agenda-sticky= which enables "sticky"
|
||
agendas. Sticky agendas remain opened in the background so that
|
||
you don't need to regenerate them each time you hit the
|
||
corresponding keystroke. This is a big time saver.
|
||
|
||
When [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is =non-nil=, the agenda buffer will be
|
||
named using the agenda key and its description. In sticky
|
||
agendas, the =q= key will just bury the agenda buffers and
|
||
further agenda commands will show existing buffer instead of
|
||
generating new ones.
|
||
|
||
If [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is set to =nil=, =q= will kill the single
|
||
agenda buffer.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]]
|
||
|
||
Setting this option allows you to define specific context where
|
||
agenda commands should be available from. For example, when set
|
||
to this value
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
|
||
'(("p" (in-file . "\\.txt"))))
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
then the =p= agenda command will only be available from buffers
|
||
visiting *.txt files. See the docstring and the manual for more
|
||
details on how to use this.
|
||
|
||
**** Changes in bulk actions
|
||
|
||
The set of commands starting with =k ...= as been deleted and the
|
||
features have been merged into the "bulk action" feature.
|
||
|
||
After you marked some entries in the agenda, if you call =B s=,
|
||
the agenda entries will be rescheduled using the date at point if
|
||
on a date header. If you are on an entry with a timestamp, you
|
||
will be prompted for a date to reschedule your marked entries to,
|
||
using the timestamp at point as the default prompt.
|
||
|
||
You can now use =k= to capture the marked entry and use the date
|
||
at point as an overriding date for the capture template.
|
||
|
||
To bind this behavior to =M-x org-capture RET= (or its
|
||
keybinding), set the new option [[doc::org-capture-use-agenda-date][org-capture-use-agenda-date]] to =t=.
|
||
|
||
**** =N= and =P= in the agenda will move to the next/previous item
|
||
|
||
**** New command [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-all][org-agenda-bulk-mark-all]] to mark all items
|
||
|
||
This new command is bound to =*= in agenda mode.
|
||
|
||
There is also a new option [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-char][org-agenda-bulk-mark-char]] to set the
|
||
character to use as a mark for bulk actions.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-agenda-persistent-marks][org-agenda-persistent-marks]]
|
||
|
||
When set to =non-nil=, marks will remain visible after a bulk
|
||
action. You can temporarily toggle this by pressing =p= when
|
||
invoking [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-action][org-agenda-bulk-action]]. Marks are deleted if your
|
||
rebuild the agenda buffer or move to another date/span (e.g. with
|
||
=f= or =w=).
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown]]
|
||
|
||
=Non-nil= means skip timestamp line if same entry shows because
|
||
of deadline.
|
||
|
||
In the agenda of today, an entry can show up multiple times
|
||
because it has both a plain timestamp and has a nearby deadline.
|
||
When this variable is t, then only the deadline is shown and the
|
||
fact that the entry has a timestamp for or including today is not
|
||
shown. When this variable is =nil=, the entry will be shown
|
||
several times.
|
||
|
||
**** New =todo-unblocked= and =nottodo-unblocked= skip conditions
|
||
|
||
See the [[https://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=f426da][git commit]] for more explanations.
|
||
|
||
**** Allow category filtering in the agenda
|
||
|
||
You can now filter the agenda by category. Pressing "<" will
|
||
filter by the category of the item on the current line, and
|
||
pressing "<" again will remove the filter. You can combine tag
|
||
filters and category filters.
|
||
|
||
You can use =org-agenda-category-filter= in your custom agenda
|
||
views and =org-agenda-category-filter-preset= in your main
|
||
configuration.
|
||
|
||
See also the new command [[doc::org-agenda-filter-by-top-category][org-agenda-filter-by-top-category]]:
|
||
hitting =^= will filter by "Top" category: only show entries that
|
||
are of the same category than the Top category of the entry at
|
||
point.
|
||
|
||
*** Org Links
|
||
|
||
**** Inserting links
|
||
|
||
When inserting links through [[doc::org-insert-link][org-insert-link]], the description is
|
||
now displayed first, followed by the literal link, as the
|
||
description is often more useful when you look for the link you
|
||
want to insert.
|
||
|
||
Completion now complete both literal links and description. If
|
||
you complete a description, the literal link and its description
|
||
will be inserted directly, whereas when you complete the literal
|
||
link, you will be prompted for a description (as with Org 7.8.)
|
||
|
||
In the completion buffer, links to the current buffer are now
|
||
highlighted.
|
||
|
||
**** New templates =%h= and =%(sexp)= for abbreviated links
|
||
|
||
On top of =%s= template, which is replaced by the link tag in
|
||
abbreviated links, you can now use =%h= (which does the same than =%s=
|
||
but does not hexify the tag) and =%(sexp)= (which can run a function
|
||
that takes the tag as its own argument.)
|
||
|
||
**** New link type =help=
|
||
|
||
You can now create links from =help= buffers.
|
||
|
||
For example, if you request help for the command [[doc::org-agenda][org-agenda]] with =C-h f org-agenda RET=, creating a link from this buffer will let
|
||
you go back to the same buffer.
|
||
|
||
**** New command [[doc::org-insert-all-links][org-insert-all-links]]
|
||
|
||
This will insert all links as list items. With a universal
|
||
prefix argument, links will not be deleted from the variable =org-stored-links=.
|
||
|
||
This new command is bound to =C-c C-M-l=.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-url-hexify-p][org-url-hexify-p]]
|
||
|
||
When set to =nil=, the =URL= part of a link will not be hexified.
|
||
|
||
**** Org can now open multiple shell links
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-doi-server-url][org-doi-server-url]] to specify an alternate DOI server
|
||
|
||
**** RET now follows time stamps links
|
||
|
||
*** Org Editing
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] and =org-archive-*= can now loop in the active region
|
||
|
||
When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, using
|
||
[[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] or =org-archive-*= commands in the active region will
|
||
loop over headlines. This is handy if you want to set the TODO
|
||
keyword for several items, or archive them quickly.
|
||
|
||
**** You can now set tags for headlines in a region
|
||
|
||
If [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, then
|
||
selecting the region and hitting =C-c C-q= will set the tags for
|
||
all headlines in the region.
|
||
|
||
**** New command [[doc::org-insert-drawer][org-insert-drawer]] to insert a drawer interactively
|
||
|
||
**** Comments start with "^[ \t]*# " anywhere on a line
|
||
|
||
Note that the space after the hashtag is mandatory. Comments
|
||
with "^#+" are not supported anymore.
|
||
|
||
**** New speed key =#= to toggle the COMMENT cookie on a headline
|
||
|
||
**** =indent-region-function= is now set to [[doc::org-indent-region][org-indent-region]]
|
||
|
||
=C-M-\= should now produce useful results.
|
||
|
||
You can unindent the buffer with [[doc::org-unindent-buffer][org-unindent-buffer]].
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree][org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree]]
|
||
|
||
When =non-nil=, =S-M-<left>= will promote level-1 subtrees
|
||
containing other subtrees. The level-1 headline will be
|
||
commented out. You can revert to the previous state with =M-x
|
||
undo RET=.
|
||
|
||
*** Org Clock
|
||
|
||
**** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-z= for [[doc::org-clock-resolve][org-clock-resolve]]
|
||
|
||
**** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-q= for [[doc::org-clock-cancel][org-clock-cancel]]
|
||
|
||
**** New command [[doc::org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] to clock in the last clocked item
|
||
|
||
This command is bound to =C-c C-x C-x= and will clock in the last
|
||
clocked entry, if any.
|
||
|
||
**** =C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-out][org-clock-out]] =RET= now prompts for a state to switch to
|
||
|
||
**** =S-M-<up/down>= on a clock timestamps adjusts the previous/next clock
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-clock-continuously][org-clock-continuously]]
|
||
|
||
When set to =nil=, clocking in a task will first try to find the
|
||
last clocked out task and restart from when that task was clocked
|
||
out.
|
||
|
||
You can temporarily activate continuous clocking with =C-u C-u
|
||
C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-in][org-clock-in]] =RET= (three universal prefix arguments)
|
||
and =C-u C-u M-x= [[org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] =RET= (two universal prefix
|
||
arguments).
|
||
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-clock-frame-title-format][org-clock-frame-title-format]]
|
||
|
||
This option sets the value of =frame-title-format= when clocking
|
||
in.
|
||
|
||
**** New options for controlling the clockreport display
|
||
|
||
[[doc::org-clock-file-time-cell-format][org-clock-file-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the file time
|
||
cells in clockreport.
|
||
|
||
[[doc::org-clock-total-time-cell-format][org-clock-total-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the total
|
||
time cells in clockreport.
|
||
|
||
|
||
**** New options for controlling the clock/timer display
|
||
|
||
[[doc::org-clock-clocked-in-display][org-clock-clocked-in-display]]: control whether the current clock
|
||
is displayed in the mode line and/or frame title.
|
||
|
||
[[doc::org-timer-display][org-timer-display]]: control whether the current timer is displayed
|
||
in the mode line and/or frame title.
|
||
|
||
This allows the clock and timer to be displayed in the frame
|
||
title instead of, or as well as, the mode line. This is useful
|
||
for people with limited space in the mode line but with ample
|
||
space in the frame title.
|
||
|
||
*** Org Appearance
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-custom-properties][org-custom-properties]]
|
||
|
||
The visibility of properties listed in this options can be turn
|
||
on/off with [[doc::org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility][org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility]]. This might
|
||
be useful for properties used by third-part tools or that you
|
||
don't want to see temporarily.
|
||
|
||
**** New command [[doc::org-redisplay-inline-images][org-redisplay-inline-images]]
|
||
|
||
This will redisplay all images. It is bound to =C-c C-x C-M-v=.
|
||
|
||
**** New entities in =org-entities.el=
|
||
|
||
There are these new entities:
|
||
|
||
: ("tilde" "\\~{}" nil "˜" "~" "~" "~")
|
||
: ("slash" "/" nil "/" "/" "/" "/")
|
||
: ("plus" "+" nil "+" "+" "+" "+")
|
||
: ("under" "\\_" nil "_" "_" "_" "_")
|
||
: ("equal" "=" nil "=" "=" "=" "=")
|
||
: ("asciicirc" "\\textasciicircum{}" nil "^" "^" "^" "^")
|
||
|
||
**** New face =org-list-dt= for definition terms
|
||
**** New face =org-date-selected= for the selected calendar day
|
||
**** New face value for =org-document-title=
|
||
|
||
The face is back to a normal height.
|
||
|
||
*** Org Columns
|
||
|
||
**** New speed command =:= to activate the column view
|
||
**** New special property =CLOCKSUM_T= to display today's clocked time
|
||
|
||
You can use =CLOCKSUM_T= the same way you use =CLOCKSUM=. It
|
||
will display the time spent on tasks for today only.
|
||
|
||
**** Use the =:COLUMNS:= property in columnview dynamic blocks
|
||
|
||
If the =:COLUMNS:= is set in a subtree, the columnview dynamic
|
||
block will use its value as the column format.
|
||
|
||
**** Consider inline tasks when computing a sum
|
||
|
||
*** Org Dates and Time Stamps
|
||
|
||
**** Enhanced [[doc::org-sparse-tree][org-sparse-tree]] =C-c /= can now check for time ranges.
|
||
|
||
When checking for dates with =C-c /= it is useful to change the
|
||
type of dates that you are interested in. You can now do this
|
||
interactively with =c= after =C-c /= and/or by setting
|
||
[[doc::org-sparse-tree-default-date-type][org-sparse-tree-default-date-type]] to the default value you want.
|
||
|
||
**** Support for hourly repeat cookies
|
||
|
||
You can now use
|
||
|
||
: SCHEDULED: <2012-08-20 lun. 08:00 +1h>
|
||
|
||
if you want to add an hourly repeater to an entry.
|
||
|
||
**** =C-u C-u C-c .= inserts a time-stamp with no prompt
|
||
|
||
**** When (setq [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] 'time), accept days in the prompt
|
||
|
||
"8am Wed" and "Wed 8am" are now acceptable values when entering a
|
||
date from the prompt. If [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] is set to
|
||
=time=, this will produce the expected prompt indication.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-datetree-add-timestamp][org-datetree-add-timestamp]]
|
||
|
||
When set to =non-nil=, datetree entries will also have a
|
||
timestamp. This is useful if you want to see these entries in a
|
||
sparse tree with =C-c /=.
|
||
|
||
*** Org Capture
|
||
|
||
**** New command [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]]
|
||
|
||
M-x [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]] RET will prompt for a string and a capture
|
||
template. The string will be used as an annotation for the
|
||
template. This is useful when capturing in batch mode as it lets
|
||
you define the content of the template without being in Emacs.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]]
|
||
|
||
Setting this option allows you to define specific context where
|
||
capture templates should be available from. For example, when
|
||
set to this value
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||
(setq org-capture-templates-contexts
|
||
'(("c" (in-mode . "message-mode"))))
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
then the =c= capture template will only be available from =message-mode= buffers. See the docstring and the manual for
|
||
more details on how to use this.
|
||
|
||
**** New =%l= template to insert the literal link
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]]
|
||
|
||
Org used to automatically add a bookmark with capture a note.
|
||
You can now turn this on by setting [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]] to =nil=.
|
||
|
||
**** Expand =%<num>= escape sequences into text entered for <num>'th =%^{PROMPT}= escape
|
||
|
||
See the manual for more explanations.
|
||
|
||
**** More control over empty lines
|
||
|
||
You can use =:empty-lines-before= and =:empty-lines-after= to
|
||
control the insertion of empty lines. Check the manual for more
|
||
explanations.
|
||
|
||
**** New hook [[doc::org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook][org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook]]
|
||
|
||
This new hook runs before the finalization process starts.
|
||
|
||
*** Org Export
|
||
|
||
**** New functions =orgtbl-to-table.el= and =orgtbl-to-unicode= =orgtbl-to-table.el= convert the table to a =table.el= table, and =orgtbl-to-unicode= will use =ascii-art-to-unicode.el= (when
|
||
available) to print beautiful tables.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]] now a bit clever about the target format
|
||
|
||
When you specify a file name like =table.csv=, [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]]
|
||
will now suggest =orgtbl-to-csv= the default method for exporting
|
||
the table.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-export-date-timestamp-format][org-export-date-timestamp-format]]
|
||
|
||
The option allows to set a time string format for Org timestamps
|
||
in the #+DATE option.
|
||
|
||
**** LaTeX: New options for exporting table rules :tstart, :hline and :tend
|
||
|
||
See [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-hline][org-export-latex-tables-hline]] and [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-tend][org-export-latex-tables-tend]].
|
||
|
||
**** LaTeX: You can now set =:hfmt= from =#+ATTR_LaTeX=
|
||
**** Beamer: Add support and keybinding for the =exampleblock= environment
|
||
|
||
Add support for these languages in [[doc::org-export-language-setup][org-export-language-setup]].
|
||
More languages are always welcome.
|
||
|
||
**** Beamer: New option [[doc::org-beamer-inherited-properties][org-beamer-inherited-properties]]
|
||
|
||
This option allows Beamer export to inherit some properties.
|
||
Thanks to Carsten for implementing this.
|
||
|
||
**** ODT: Add support for ODT export in org-bbdb.el
|
||
**** ODT: Add support for indented tables (see [[https://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=e9fd33][this commit]] for details)
|
||
**** ODT: Improve the conversion from ODT to other formats
|
||
**** ASCII: Swap the level-1/level-2 characters to underline the headlines
|
||
**** Support for Chinese, simplified Chinese, Russian, Ukrainian and Japanese
|
||
**** HTML: New option [[doc::org-export-html-date-format-string][org-export-html-date-format-string]]
|
||
|
||
Format string to format the date and time in HTML export. Thanks
|
||
to Sébastien Vauban for this patch.
|
||
|
||
*** Org Babel
|
||
|
||
**** New =:results drawer= parameter
|
||
=:results drawer= replaces =:results wrap=, which is deprecated but still
|
||
supported.
|
||
|
||
**** =:results org= now put results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block
|
||
=:results org= used to put results in a =#+BEGIN_ORG= block but it now puts
|
||
results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block, with comma-escaped lines.
|
||
=#+BEGIN_ORG= blocks are obsolete.
|
||
|
||
**** Exporting =#+BEGIN_SRC org= blocks exports the code
|
||
|
||
It used to exports the results of the code.
|
||
|
||
*** Miscellaneous
|
||
|
||
**** New menu entry for [[doc::org-refile][org-refile]]
|
||
**** Allow capturing to encrypted entries
|
||
|
||
If you capture to an encrypted entry, it will be decrypted before
|
||
inserting the template then re-encrypted after finalizing the capture.
|
||
|
||
**** Inactive timestamps are now handled in tables
|
||
|
||
Calc can do computation on active time-stamps like <2012-09-29 sat.>.
|
||
Inactive time-stamps in a table's cell are now internally deactivated so
|
||
that Calc formulas can operate on them.
|
||
|
||
**** [[doc::org-table-number-regexp][org-table-number-regexp]] can now accept comma as decimal mark
|
||
**** Org allows a new property =APPT_WARNTIME=
|
||
|
||
You can set it with the =W= speedy key or set it manually. When
|
||
set, exporting to iCalendar and [[doc::org-agenda-to-appt][org-agenda-to-appt]] will use the
|
||
value of this property as the number of minutes for the warning
|
||
alarm.
|
||
|
||
**** New command [[doc::org-inc-effort][org-inc-effort]]
|
||
|
||
This will increment the effort value.
|
||
|
||
It is bound to =C-c C-x E= and to =E= as a speedy command.
|
||
|
||
**** Attach: Add support for creating symbolic links =org-attach-method= now supports a new method =lns=, allowing to
|
||
attach symbolic links.
|
||
|
||
**** Archive: you can now archive to a datetree
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-inlinetask-show-first-star][org-inlinetask-show-first-star]] =Non-nil= means display the first star of an inline task as
|
||
additional marker. When =nil=, the first star is not shown.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory][org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory]]
|
||
|
||
This lets you define the path for the =ltxpng/= directory.
|
||
|
||
**** You can now use imagemagick instead of dvipng to preview LaTeX fragments
|
||
**** You can now turn off [[doc::orgstruct++-mode][orgstruct++-mode]] safely
|
||
**** =C-u C-c C-c= on list items to add check boxes =C-u C-c C-c= will add an empty check box on a list item.
|
||
|
||
When hit from the top of the list, it will add check boxes for
|
||
all top level list items.
|
||
|
||
**** =org-list-ending-method= and =org-list-end-regexp= are now obsolete
|
||
|
||
Fall back on using =org-list-end-re= only, which see.
|
||
|
||
**** org-feed.el now expands =%(sexp)= templates
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-protocol-data-separator][org-protocol-data-separator]]
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-ditaa-jar-option][org-ditaa-jar-option]] to specify the ditaa jar file
|
||
|
||
**** New possible value for [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]]
|
||
|
||
When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is set to =start-level=, the command will loop over the active region but
|
||
will only act upon entries that are of the same level than the
|
||
first headline in the region.
|
||
|
||
**** New option [[doc::org-habit-show-all-today][org-habit-show-all-today]]
|
||
|
||
When set to =t=, show all (even unscheduled) habits on today's
|
||
agenda.
|
||
|
||
** Important bug fixes
|
||
|
||
*** M-TAB on options keywords perform completion correctly again
|
||
|
||
If you hit =M-TAB= on keywords like =#+TITLE=, Org will try to
|
||
perform completion with meaningful values.
|
||
|
||
*** Add licenses to javascript embedded and external code snippets
|
||
|
||
Embedded javascript code produced when exporting an Org file to
|
||
HTML is now licensed under GPLv3 (or later), and the copyright is
|
||
owned by the Free Software Foundation, Inc.
|
||
|
||
The javascript code for embedding MathJax in the browser mentions
|
||
the MathJax copyright and the Apache 2.0 license.
|
||
|
||
The javascript code for embedding =org-injo.js= in the browser
|
||
mentions the copyright of Sebastian Rose and the GPLv3 (or later)
|
||
license. =org-export-html-scripts= is now a variable, so that you can adapt
|
||
the code and the license to your needs.
|
||
|
||
See https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html for
|
||
explanations on why these changes were necessary.
|
||
|
||
* Version 7.8.11
|
||
|
||
** Incompatible changes
|
||
|
||
*** Emacs 21 support has been dropped
|
||
|
||
Do not use Org mode 7.xx with Emacs 21, use [[https://orgmode.org/org-6.36c.zip][version 6.36c]] instead.
|
||
|
||
*** XEmacs support requires the XEmacs development version
|
||
|
||
To use Org mode 7.xx with XEmacs, you need to run the developer
|
||
version of XEmacs. We were about to drop XEmacs support entirely,
|
||
but Michael Sperber stepped in and made changes to XEmacs that
|
||
made it easier to keep the support. Thanks to Michael for this
|
||
last-minute save.
|
||
|
||
*** New keys for TODO sparse trees
|
||
|
||
The key =C-c C-v= is now reserved for Org Babel action. TODO
|
||
sparse trees can still be made with =C-c / t= (all not-done
|
||
states) and =C-c / T= (specific states).
|
||
|
||
*** The Agenda =org-agenda-ndays= is now obsolete
|
||
|
||
The variable =org-agenda-ndays= is obsolete - please use =org-agenda-span= instead.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Julien Danjou for this.
|
||
|
||
*** Changes to the intended use of =org-export-latex-classes=
|
||
|
||
So far this variable has been used to specify the complete header
|
||
of the LaTeX document, including all the =\usepackage= calls
|
||
necessary for the document. This setup makes it difficult to
|
||
maintain the list of packages that Org itself would like to call,
|
||
for example for the special symbol support it needs.
|
||
|
||
First of all, you can *opt out of this change* in the following
|
||
way: You can say: /I want to have full control over headers, and I
|
||
will take responsibility to include the packages Org needs/. If
|
||
that is what you want, add this to your configuration and skip the
|
||
rest of this section (except maybe for the description of the =[EXTRA]= place holder):
|
||
|
||
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
|
||
(setq org-export-latex-default-packages-alist nil
|
||
org-export-latex-packages-alist nil)
|
||
#+end_src /Continue to read here if you want to go along with the modified
|
||
setup./
|
||
|
||
There are now two variables that should be used to list the LaTeX
|
||
packages that need to be included in all classes. The header
|
||
definition in =org-export-latex-classes= should then not contain
|
||
the corresponding =\usepackage= calls (see below).
|
||
|
||
The two new variables are:
|
||
|
||
1. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist= :: This is the
|
||
variable where Org-mode itself puts the packages it needs.
|
||
Normally you should not change this variable. The only
|
||
reason to change it anyway is when one of these packages
|
||
causes a conflict with another package you want to use. Then
|
||
you can remove that packages and hope that you are not using
|
||
Org-mode functionality that needs it.
|
||
|
||
2. =org-export-latex-packages-alist= :: This is the variable where
|
||
you can put the packages that you'd like to use across all
|
||
classes.
|
||
|
||
The sequence how these customizations will show up in the LaTeX
|
||
document are:
|
||
|
||
1. Header from =org-export-latex-classes=
|
||
2. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=
|
||
3. =org-export-latex-packages-alist=
|
||
4. Buffer-specific things set with =#+LaTeX_HEADER:=
|
||
|
||
If you want more control about which segment is placed where, or
|
||
if you want, for a specific class, have full control over the
|
||
header and exclude some of the automatic building blocks, you can
|
||
put the following macro-like place holders into the header:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
[DEFAULT-PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for default packages
|
||
[NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES] do not include any of the default packages
|
||
[PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for packages
|
||
[NO-PACKAGES] do not include the packages
|
||
[EXTRA] the stuff from #+LaTeX_HEADER
|
||
[NO-EXTRA] do not include #+LaTeX_HEADER stuff
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
If you have currently customized =org-export-latex-classes=, you
|
||
should revise that customization and remove any package calls that
|
||
are covered by =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. This
|
||
applies to the following packages:
|
||
|
||
- inputenc
|
||
- fontenc
|
||
- fixltx2e
|
||
- graphicx
|
||
- longtable
|
||
- float
|
||
- wrapfig
|
||
- soul
|
||
- t1enc
|
||
- textcomp
|
||
- marvosym
|
||
- wasysym
|
||
- latexsym
|
||
- amssymb
|
||
- hyperref
|
||
|
||
If one of these packages creates a conflict with another package
|
||
you are using, you can remove it from =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. But then you risk that
|
||
some of the advertised export features of Org will not work
|
||
properly.
|
||
|
||
You can also consider moving packages that you use in all classes
|
||
to =org-export-latex-packages-alist=. If necessary, put the place
|
||
holders so that the packages get loaded in the right sequence. As
|
||
said above, for backward compatibility, if you omit the place
|
||
holders, all the variables will dump their content at the end of
|
||
the header.
|
||
|
||
*** The constant =org-html-entities= is obsolete
|
||
|
||
Its content is now part of the new constant =org-entities=, which
|
||
is defined in the file org-entities.el. =org-html-entities= was
|
||
an internal variable, but it is possible that some users did write
|
||
code using it.
|
||
|
||
*** =org-bbdb-anniversary-format-alist= has changed
|
||
|
||
Please check the docstring and update your settings accordingly.
|
||
|
||
*** Deleted =org-mode-p=
|
||
|
||
This function has been deleted: please update your code.
|
||
|
||
** Important new features
|
||
|
||
*** New Org to ODT exporter
|
||
|
||
Jambunathan's Org to ODT exporter is now part of Org.
|
||
|
||
To use it, it `C-c C-e o' in an Org file. See the documentation
|
||
for more information on how to customize it.
|
||
|
||
*** org-capture.el is now the default capture system
|
||
|
||
This replaces the earlier system org-remember. The manual only
|
||
describes org-capture, but for people who prefer to continue to
|
||
use org-remember, we keep a static copy of the former manual
|
||
section [[https://orgmode.org/org-remember.pdf][chapter about remember]].
|
||
|
||
The new system has a technically cleaner implementation and more
|
||
possibilities for capturing different types of data. See
|
||
[[http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/26441/focus%3D26441][Carsten's announcement]] for more details.
|
||
|
||
To switch over to the new system:
|
||
|
||
1. Run
|
||
|
||
: M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET
|
||
|
||
to get a translated version of your remember templates into the
|
||
new variable =org-capture-templates=. This will "mostly" work,
|
||
but maybe not for all cases. At least it will give you a good
|
||
place to modify your templates. After running this command,
|
||
enter the customize buffer for this variable with
|
||
|
||
: M-x customize-variable RET org-capture-templates RET
|
||
|
||
and convince yourself that everything is OK. Then save the
|
||
customization.
|
||
|
||
2. Bind the command =org-capture= to a key, similar to what you did
|
||
with org-remember:
|
||
|
||
: (define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture)
|
||
|
||
If your fingers prefer =C-c r=, you can also use this key once
|
||
you have decided to move over completely to the new
|
||
implementation. During a test time, there is nothing wrong
|
||
with using both system in parallel.
|
||
|
||
** New libraries
|
||
|
||
*** New Org libraries
|
||
**** org-eshell.el (Konrad Hinsen)
|
||
|
||
Implement links to eshell buffers.
|
||
|
||
**** org-special-blocks (Carsten Dominik)
|
||
|
||
This package generalizes the #+begin_foo and #+end_foo tokens.
|
||
|
||
To use, put the following in your init file:
|
||
|
||
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
||
(require 'org-special-blocks)
|
||
#+END_EXAMPLE
|
||
|
||
The tokens #+begin_center, #+begin_verse, etc. existed
|
||
previously. This package generalizes them (at least for the
|
||
LaTeX and html exporters). When a #+begin_foo token is
|
||
encountered by the LaTeX exporter, it is expanded
|
||
into \begin{foo}. The text inside the environment is not
|
||
protected, as text inside environments generally is.
|
||
When #+begin_foo is encountered by the html exporter, a div with
|
||
class foo is inserted into the HTML file. It is up to the user
|
||
to add this class to his or her stylesheet if this div is to mean
|
||
anything.
|
||
|
||
**** org-taskjuggler.el (Christian Egli)
|
||
|
||
Christian Egli's /org-taskjuggler.el/ module is now part of Org.
|
||
He also wrote a [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler.php][tutorial]] for it.
|
||
|
||
**** org-ctags.el (Paul Sexton)
|
||
|
||
Targets like =<<my target>>= can now be found by Emacs' etag
|
||
functionality, and Org-mode links can be used to to link to
|
||
etags, also in non-Org-mode files. For details, see the file /org-ctags.el/.
|
||
|
||
This feature uses a new hook =org-open-link-functions= which will
|
||
call function to do something special with text links.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Paul Sexton for this contribution.
|
||
|
||
**** org-docview.el (Jan Böcker)
|
||
|
||
This new module allows links to various file types using docview, where
|
||
Emacs displays images of document pages. Docview link types can point
|
||
to a specific page in a document, for example to page 131 of the
|
||
Org-mode manual:
|
||
|
||
: [[docview:~/.elisp/org/doc/org.pdf::131][Org-Mode Manual]]
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Jan Böcker for this contribution.
|
||
|
||
*** New Babel libraries
|
||
|
||
- ob-picolisp.el (Thorsten Jolitz)
|
||
- ob-fortran.el (Sergey Litvinov)
|
||
- ob-shen.el (Eric Schulte)
|
||
- ob-maxima.el (Eric S Fraga)
|
||
- ob-java.el (Eric Schulte)
|
||
- ob-lilypond.el (Martyn Jago)
|
||
- ob-awk.el (Eric Schulte)
|
||
|
||
** Other new features and various enhancements
|
||
|
||
*** Hyperlinks
|
||
|
||
**** Org-Bibtex -- major improvements
|
||
|
||
Provides support for managing bibtex bibliographical references
|
||
data in headline properties. Each headline corresponds to a
|
||
single reference and the relevant bibliographic meta-data is
|
||
stored in headline properties, leaving the body of the headline
|
||
free to hold notes and comments. Org-bibtex is aware of all
|
||
standard bibtex reference types and fields.
|
||
|
||
The key new functions are
|
||
|
||
- org-bibtex-check :: queries the user to flesh out all required
|
||
(and with prefix argument optional) bibtex fields available
|
||
for the specific reference =type= of the current headline.
|
||
|
||
- org-bibtex-create :: Create a new entry at the given level,
|
||
using org-bibtex-check to flesh out the relevant fields.
|
||
|
||
- org-bibtex-yank :: Yank a bibtex entry on the kill ring as a
|
||
formatted Org-mode headline into the current buffer
|
||
|
||
- org-bibtex-export-to-kill-ring :: Export the current headline
|
||
to the kill ring as a formatted bibtex entry.
|
||
|
||
**** org-gnus.el now allows link creation from messages
|
||
|
||
You can now create links from messages. This is particularly
|
||
useful when the user wants to stored messages that he sends, for
|
||
later check. Thanks to Ulf Stegemann for the patch.
|
||
|
||
**** Modified link escaping
|
||
|
||
David Maus worked on `org-link-escape'. See [[http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/37888][his message]]:
|
||
|
||
: Percent escaping is used in Org mode to escape certain characters
|
||
: in links that would either break the parser (e.g. square brackets
|
||
: in link target oder description) or are not allowed to appear in
|
||
: a particular link type (e.g. non-ascii characters in a http:
|
||
: link).
|
||
:
|
||
: With this change in place Org will apply percent escaping and
|
||
: unescaping more consistently especially for non-ascii characters.
|
||
: Additionally some of the outstanding bugs or glitches concerning
|
||
: percent escaped links are solved.
|
||
|
||
Thanks a lot to David for this work.
|
||
|
||
**** Make =org-store-link= point to directory in a dired buffer
|
||
|
||
When, in a dired buffer, the cursor is not in a line listing a
|
||
file, `org-store-link' will store a link to the directory.
|
||
|
||
Patch by Stephen Eglen.
|
||
|
||
**** Allow regexps in =org-file-apps= to capture link parameters
|
||
|
||
The way extension regexps in =org-file-apps= are handled has
|
||
changed. Instead of matching against the file name, the regexps
|
||
are now matched against the whole link, and you can use grouping
|
||
to extract link parameters which you can then use in a command
|
||
string to be executed.
|
||
|
||
For example, to allow linking to PDF files using the syntax =file:/doc.pdf::<page number>=, you can add the following entry
|
||
to org-file-apps:
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
Extension: \.pdf::\([0-9]+\)\'
|
||
Command: evince "%s" -p %1
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Jan Böcker for a patch to this effect.
|
||
|
||
*** Dates and time
|
||
|
||
**** Allow relative time when scheduling/adding a deadline
|
||
|
||
You can now use relative duration strings like "-2d" or "++3w"
|
||
when calling =org-schedule= or =org-deadline=: it will schedule
|
||
(or set the deadline for) the item respectively two days before
|
||
today and three weeks after the current timestamp, if any.
|
||
|
||
You can use this programmatically: =(org-schedule nil "+2d")=
|
||
will work on the current entry.
|
||
|
||
You can also use this while (bulk-)rescheduling and
|
||
(bulk-)resetting the deadline of (several) items from the agenda.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Memnon Anon for a heads up about this!
|
||
|
||
**** American-style dates are now understood by =org-read-date=
|
||
|
||
So when you are prompted for a date, you can now answer like this
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
2/5/3 --> 2003-02-05
|
||
2/5 --> <CURRENT-YEAR>-02-05
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
*** Agenda
|
||
|
||
**** =org-agenda-custom-commands= has a default value
|
||
|
||
This option used to be `nil' by default. This now has a default
|
||
value, displaying an agenda and all TODOs. See the docstring for
|
||
details. Thanks to Carsten for this.
|
||
|
||
**** Improved filtering through =org-agenda-to-appt=
|
||
|
||
The new function allows the user to refine the scope of entries
|
||
to pass to =org-agenda-get-day-entries= and allows to filter out
|
||
entries using a function.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Peter Münster for raising a related issue and to
|
||
Tassilo Horn for this idea. Also thanks to Peter Münster for
|
||
[[git:68ffb7a7][fixing a small bug]] in the final implementation.
|
||
|
||
**** Allow ap/pm times in agenda time grid
|
||
|
||
Times in the agenda can now be displayed in am/pm format. See
|
||
the new variable =org-agenda-timegrid-use-ampm=. Thanks to
|
||
C. A. Webber for a patch to this effect.
|
||
|
||
**** Agenda: Added a bulk "scattering" command =B S= in the agenda buffer will cause tasks to be rescheduled a
|
||
random number of days into the future, with 7 as the default.
|
||
This is useful if you've got a ton of tasks scheduled for today,
|
||
you realize you'll never deal with them all, and you just want
|
||
them to be distributed across the next N days. When called with
|
||
a prefix arg, rescheduling will avoid weekend days.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to John Wiegley for this.
|
||
|
||
*** Exporting
|
||
|
||
**** Simplification of org-export-html-preamble/postamble
|
||
|
||
When set to `t', export the preamble/postamble as usual, honoring
|
||
the =org-export-email/author/creator-info= variables.
|
||
|
||
When set to a formatting string, insert this string. See the
|
||
docstring of these variable for details about available
|
||
%-sequences.
|
||
|
||
You can set =:html-preamble= in publishing project in the same
|
||
way: `t' means to honor =:email/creator/author-info=, and a
|
||
formatting string will insert a string.
|
||
|
||
**** New exporters to Latin-1 and UTF-8
|
||
|
||
While Ulf Stegemann was going through the entities list to
|
||
improve the LaTeX export, he had the great idea to provide
|
||
representations for many of the entities in Latin-1, and for all
|
||
of them in UTF-8. This means that we can now export files rich
|
||
in special symbols to Latin-1 and to UTF-8 files. These new
|
||
exporters can be reached with the commands =C-c C-e n= and =C-c
|
||
C-e u=, respectively.
|
||
|
||
When there is no representation for a given symbol in the
|
||
targeted coding system, you can choose to keep the TeX-macro-like
|
||
representation, or to get an "explanatory" representation. For
|
||
example, =\simeq= could be represented as "[approx. equal to]".
|
||
Please use the variable =org-entities-ascii-explanatory= to state
|
||
your preference.
|
||
|
||
**** HTML export: Add class to outline containers using property
|
||
|
||
The =HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS= property can now be used to add a
|
||
class name to the outline container of a node in HTML export.
|
||
|
||
**** Throw an error when creating an image from a LaTeX snippet fails
|
||
|
||
This behavior can be configured with the new option variable =org-format-latex-signal-error=.
|
||
|
||
**** Support for creating BEAMER presentations from Org-mode documents
|
||
|
||
Org-mode documents or subtrees can now be converted directly in
|
||
to BEAMER presentation. Turning a tree into a simple
|
||
presentations is straight forward, and there is also quite some
|
||
support to make richer presentations as well. See the [[https://orgmode.org/manual/Beamer-class-export.html#Beamer-class-export][BEAMER
|
||
section]] in the manual for more details.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the discussion about
|
||
BEAMER support and how it should work. This was a great example
|
||
for how this community can achieve a much better result than any
|
||
individual could.
|
||
|
||
*** Refiling
|
||
|
||
**** Refile targets can now be cached
|
||
|
||
You can turn on caching of refile targets by setting the variable =org-refile-use-cache=. This should speed up refiling if you
|
||
have many eligible targets in many files. If you need to update
|
||
the cache because Org misses a newly created entry or still
|
||
offers a deleted one, press =C-0 C-c C-w=.
|
||
|
||
**** New logging support for refiling
|
||
|
||
Whenever you refile an item, a time stamp and even a note can be
|
||
added to this entry. For details, see the new option =org-log-refile=.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Charles Cave for this idea.
|
||
|
||
*** Completion
|
||
|
||
**** In-buffer completion is now done using John Wiegley's pcomplete.el
|
||
|
||
Thanks to John Wiegley for much of this code.
|
||
|
||
*** Tables
|
||
|
||
**** New command =org-table-transpose-table-at-point=
|
||
|
||
See the docstring. This hack from Juan Pechiar is now part of
|
||
Org's core. Thanks to Juan!
|
||
|
||
**** Display field's coordinates when editing it with =C-c `=
|
||
|
||
When editing a field with =C-c `=, the field's coordinate will
|
||
the displayed in the buffer.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Michael Brand for a patch to this effect.
|
||
|
||
**** Spreadsheet computation of durations and time values
|
||
|
||
If you want to compute time values use the =T= flag, either in
|
||
Calc formulas or Elisp formulas:
|
||
|
||
| Task 1 | Task 2 | Total |
|
||
|--------+--------+---------|
|
||
| 35:00 | 35:00 | 1:10:00 |
|
||
#+TBLFM: @2$3=$1+$2;T
|
||
|
||
Values must be of the form =[HH:]MM:SS=, where hours are
|
||
optional.
|
||
|

Thanks to Martin Halder, Eric Schulte and Carsten for code and
|
||
feedback on this.
|
||
|
||
**** Implement formulas applying to field ranges
|
||
|
||
Carsten implemented this field-ranges formulas.
|
||
|
||
: A frequently requested feature for tables has been to be able to define
|
||
: row formulas in a way similar to column formulas. The patch below allows
|
||
: things like
|
||
:
|
||
: @3=
|
||
: @2$2..@5$7=
|
||
: @I$2..@II$4=
|
||
:
|
||
: as the left hand side for table formulas in order to write a formula that
|
||
: is valid for an entire column or for a rectangular section in a
|
||
: table.
|
||
|
||
Thanks a lot to Carsten for this.
|
||
|
||
**** Sending radio tables from org buffers is now allowed
|
||
|
||
Org radio tables can no also be sent inside Org buffers. Also,
|
||
there is a new hook which get called after a table has been sent.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Seweryn Kokot.
|
||
|
||
*** Lists
|
||
|
||
**** Improved handling of lists
|
||
|
||
Nicolas Goaziou extended and improved the way Org handles lists.
|
||
|
||
1. Indentation of text determines again end of items in
|
||
lists. So, some text less indented than the previous item
|
||
doesn't close the whole list anymore, only all items more
|
||
indented than it.
|
||
|
||
2. Alphabetical bullets are implemented, through the use of the
|
||
variable `org-alphabetical-lists'. This also adds alphabetical
|
||
counters like [@c] or [@W].
|
||
|
||
3. Lists can now safely contain drawers, inline tasks, or various
|
||
blocks, themselves containing lists. Two variables are
|
||
controlling this: `org-list-forbidden-blocks', and
|
||
`org-list-export-context'.
|
||
|
||
4. Improve `newline-and-indent' (C-j): used in an item, it will
|
||
keep text from moving at column 0. This allows to split text
|
||
and make paragraphs and still not break the list.
|
||
|
||
5. Improve `org-toggle-item' (C-c -): used on a region with
|
||
standard text, it will change the region into one item. With a
|
||
prefix argument, it will fallback to the previous behavior and
|
||
make every line in region an item. It permits to easily
|
||
integrate paragraphs inside a list.
|
||
|
||
6. `fill-paragraph' (M-q) now understands lists. It can freely be
|
||
used inside items, or on text just after a list, even with no
|
||
blank line around, without breaking list structure.
|
||
|
||
Thanks a lot to Nicolas for all this!
|
||
|
||
*** Inline display of linked images
|
||
|
||
Images can now be displayed inline. The key C-c C-x C-v does
|
||
toggle the display of such images. Note that only image links
|
||
that have no description part will be inlined.
|
||
|
||
*** Implement offsets for ordered lists
|
||
|
||
If you want to start an ordered plain list with a number different
|
||
from 1, you can now do it like this:
|
||
|
||
: 1. [@start:12] will star a lit a number 12
|
||
|
||
*** Babel: code block body expansion for table and preview
|
||
|
||
In org-babel, code is "expanded" prior to evaluation. I.e. the
|
||
code that is actually evaluated comprises the code block contents,
|
||
augmented with the extra code which assigns the referenced data to
|
||
variables. It is now possible to preview expanded contents, and
|
||
also to expand code during during tangling. This expansion takes
|
||
into account all header arguments, and variables.
|
||
|
||
A new keybinding `C-c M-b p' bound to `org-babel-expand-src-block'
|
||
can be used from inside of a source code block to preview its
|
||
expanded contents (which can be very useful for debugging).
|
||
tangling
|
||
|
||
The expanded body can now be tangled, this includes variable
|
||
values which may be the results of other source-code blocks, or
|
||
stored in headline properties or tables. One possible use for this
|
||
is to allow those using org-babel for their emacs initialization
|
||
to store values (e.g. usernames, passwords, etc...) in headline
|
||
properties or in tables.
|
||
|
||
Org-babel now supports three new header arguments, and new default
|
||
behavior for handling horizontal lines in tables (hlines), column
|
||
names, and rownames across all languages.
|
||
|
||
*** Editing Convenience and Appearance
|
||
|
||
**** New command =org-copy-visible= (=C-c C-x v=)
|
||
|
||
This command will copy the visible text in the region into the
|
||
kill ring. Thanks to Florian Beck for this function and to
|
||
Carsten for adding it to org.el and documenting it!
|
||
|
||
**** Make it possible to protect hidden subtrees from being killed by =C-k=
|
||
|
||
See the new variable =org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree=. This was a
|
||
request by Scott Otterson.
|
||
|
||
**** Implement pretty display of entities, sub-, and superscripts.
|
||
|
||
The command =C-c C-x \= toggles the display of Org's special
|
||
entities like =\alpha= as pretty unicode characters. Also, sub
|
||
and superscripts are displayed in a pretty way (raised/lower
|
||
display, in a smaller font). If you want to exclude sub- and
|
||
superscripts, see the variable =org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts=.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Eric Schulte and Ulf Stegeman for making this possible.
|
||
|
||
**** New faces for title, date, author and email address lines
|
||
|
||
The keywords in these lines are now dimmed out, and the title is
|
||
displayed in a larger font, and a special font is also used for
|
||
author, date, and email information. This is implemented by the
|
||
following new faces: =org-document-title= =org-document-info= =org-document-info-keyword=
|
||
|
||
In addition, the variable =org-hidden-keywords= can be used to
|
||
make the corresponding keywords disappear.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Dan Davison for this feature.
|
||
|
||
**** Simpler way to specify faces for tags and todo keywords
|
||
|
||
The variables =org-todo-keyword-faces=, =org-tag-faces=, and =org-priority-faces= now accept simple color names as
|
||
specifications. The colors will be used as either foreground or
|
||
background color for the corresponding keyword. See also the
|
||
variable =org-faces-easy-properties=, which governs which face
|
||
property is affected by this setting.
|
||
|
||
This is really a great simplification for setting keyword faces.
|
||
The change is based on an idea and patch by Ryan Thompson.
|
||
|
||
**** <N> in tables now means fixed width, not maximum width
|
||
|
||
Requested by Michael Brand.
|
||
|
||
**** Better level cycling function =TAB= in an empty headline cycles the level of that headline
|
||
through likely states. Ryan Thompson implemented an improved
|
||
version of this function, which does not depend upon when exactly
|
||
this command is used. Thanks to Ryan for this improvement.
|
||
|
||
**** Adaptive filling
|
||
|
||
For paragraph text, =org-adaptive-fill-function= did not handle
|
||
the base case of regular text which needed to be filled. This is
|
||
now fixed. Among other things, it allows email-style ">"
|
||
comments to be filled correctly.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Dan Hackney for this patch.
|
||
|
||
**** `org-reveal' (=C-c C-r=) also decrypts encrypted entries (org-crypt.el)
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Richard Riley for triggering this change.
|
||
|
||
**** Better automatic letter selection for TODO keywords
|
||
|
||
When all first letters of keywords have been used, Org now
|
||
assigns more meaningful characters based on the keywords.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Mikael Fornius for this patch.
|
||
|
||
*** Clocking
|
||
|
||
**** Clock: Allow synchronous update of timestamps in CLOCK log
|
||
|
||
Using =S-M-<up/down>= on CLOCK log timestamps will
|
||
increase/decrease the two timestamps on this line so that
|
||
duration will keep the same. Note that duration can still be
|
||
slightly modified in case a timestamp needs some rounding.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Rainer Stengele for this idea.
|
||
|
||
**** Localized clock tables
|
||
|
||
Clock tables now support a new new =:lang= parameter, allowing
|
||
the user to customize the localization of the table headers. See
|
||
the variable =org-clock-clocktable-language-setup= which controls
|
||
available translated strings.
|
||
|
||
**** Show clock overruns in mode line
|
||
|
||
When clocking an item with a planned effort, overrunning the
|
||
planned time is now made visible in the mode line, for example
|
||
using the new face =org-mode-line-clock-overrun=, or by adding an
|
||
extra string given by =org-task-overrun-text=.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Richard Riley for a patch to this effect.
|
||
|
||
**** Clock reports can now include the running, incomplete clock
|
||
|
||
If you have a clock running, and the entry being clocked falls
|
||
into the scope when creating a clock table, the time so far spent
|
||
can be added to the total. This behavior depends on the setting
|
||
of =org-clock-report-include-clocking-task=. The default is =nil=.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Bernt Hansen for this useful addition.
|
||
|
||
*** Misc
|
||
|
||
**** Improvements with inline tasks and indentation
|
||
|
||
There is now a configurable way on how to export inline tasks.
|
||
See the new variable =org-inlinetask-export-templates=.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Nicolas Goaziou for coding these changes.
|
||
|
||
**** A property value of "nil" now means to unset a property
|
||
|
||
This can be useful in particular with property inheritance, if
|
||
some upper level has the property, and some grandchild of it
|
||
would like to have the default settings (i.e. not overruled by a
|
||
property) back.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Robert Goldman and Bernt Hansen for suggesting this
|
||
change.
|
||
|
||
**** New helper functions in org-table.el
|
||
|
||
There are new functions to access and write to a specific table field.
|
||
This is for hackers, and maybe for the org-babel people.
|
||
|
||
#+begin_example
|
||
org-table-get
|
||
org-table-put
|
||
org-table-current-line
|
||
org-table-goto-line
|
||
#+end_example
|
||
|
||
**** Archiving: Allow to reverse order in target node
|
||
|
||
The new option =org-archive-reversed-order= allows to have
|
||
archived entries inserted in a last-on-top fashion in the target
|
||
node.
|
||
|
||
This was requested by Tom.
|
||
|
||
**** Org-reveal: Double prefix arg shows the entire subtree of the parent
|
||
|
||
This can help to get out of an inconsistent state produced for
|
||
example by viewing from the agenda.
|
||
|
||
This was a request by Matt Lundin.
