| 9 | Please send Org bug reports to emacs-orgmode@gnu.org. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | * Version 8.2.3 |
| 12 | |
| 13 | ** Incompatible changes |
| 14 | |
| 15 | *** Combine org-mac-message.el and org-mac-link-grabber into org-mac-link.el |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Please remove calls to =(require 'org-mac-message)= and =(require |
| 18 | 'org-mac-link-grabber)= in your =.emacs= initialization file. All you |
| 19 | need now is =(require 'org-mac-link)=. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | Additionally, replace any calls to =ogml-grab-link= to |
| 22 | =org-mac-grab-link=. For example, replace this line: |
| 23 | |
| 24 | : (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'omgl-grab-link) |
| 25 | |
| 26 | with this: |
| 27 | |
| 28 | : (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'org-mac-grab-link) |
| 29 | |
| 30 | *** HTML export: Replace =HTML_HTML5_FANCY= by =:html-html5-fancy= (...) |
| 31 | |
| 32 | Some of the HTML specific export options in Org <8.1 are either nil or |
| 33 | t, like =#+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=. We replaced these binary options with |
| 34 | option keywords like :html-include-style. |
| 35 | |
| 36 | So you need to replace |
| 37 | |
| 38 | : #+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE: t |
| 39 | |
| 40 | by |
| 41 | |
| 42 | : #+OPTIONS: :html-include-style t |
| 43 | |
| 44 | Options affected by this change: =HTML5_FANCY=, =HTML_INCLUDE_SCRIPTS= |
| 45 | and =HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=. |
| 46 | |
| 47 | *** Add an argument to ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-buffer~ |
| 48 | |
| 49 | ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-file~ can run in a different |
| 50 | process when provided a non-nil =ASYNC= optional argument, without |
| 51 | relying on ~org-export-async-start~ macro. |
| 52 | |
| 53 | Since =ASYNC= is the first of optional arguments, you have to shift |
| 54 | the other optional arguments accordingly. |
| 55 | |
| 56 | *** Export back-ends are now structures |
| 57 | |
| 58 | Export back-ends are now structures, and stored as such in the |
| 59 | communication channel during an export process. In other words, from |
| 60 | now on, ~(plist-get info :back-end)~ will return a structure instead |
| 61 | of a symbol. |
| 62 | |
| 63 | Arguments in hooks and in filters are still symbols, though. |
| 64 | |
| 65 | ** Important bugfixes |
| 66 | |
| 67 | *** [[doc:org-insert-heading][org-insert-heading]] has been rewritten and bugs are now fixed |
| 68 | *** The replacement of disputed keys is now turned of when reading a date |
| 69 | |
| 70 | *** Match string for sparse trees can now contain a slash in a property value |
| 71 | |
| 72 | You can now have searches like SOMEPROP="aaa/bbb". Until now, |
| 73 | this would break because the slash would be interpreted as the |
| 74 | separator starting a TOTO match string. |
| 75 | ** New features |
| 76 | |
| 77 | *** =C-c ^ x= will now sort checklist items by their checked status |
| 78 | |
| 79 | See [[doc:org-sort-list][org-sort-list]]: hitting =C-c ^ x= will put checked items at the end |
| 80 | of the list. |
| 81 | *** Various LaTeX export enhancements |
| 82 | |
| 83 | - Support SVG images |
| 84 | - Support for .pgf files |
| 85 | - LaTeX Babel blocks can now be exported as =.tikz= files |
| 86 | - Allow =latexmk= as an option for [[doc:org-latex-pdf-process][org-latex-pdf-process]] |
| 87 | - When using =\usepackage[AUTO]{babel}=, AUTO will automatically be |
| 88 | replaced with a value compatible with ~org-export-default-language~ |
| 89 | or ~LANGUAGE~ keyword. |
| 90 | - The dependency on the =latexsym= LaTeX package has been removed, we |
| 91 | now use =amssymb= symbols by default instead. |
| 92 | |
| 93 | *** New functions for paragraph motion |
| 94 | |
| 95 | The commands =C-down= and =C-up= now invoke special commands |
| 96 | that use knowledge from the org-elements parser to move the cursor |
| 97 | in a paragraph-like way. |
| 98 | |
| 99 | *** New entities in =org-entities.el= |
| 100 | |
| 101 | Add support for ell, imath, jmath, varphi, varpi, aleph, gimel, beth, |
| 102 | dalet, cdots, S (ยง), dag, ddag, colon, therefore, because, triangleq, |
| 103 | leq, geq, lessgtr, lesseqgtr, ll, lll, gg, ggg, prec, preceq, |
| 104 | preccurlyeq, succ, succeq, succurlyeq, setminus, nexist(s), mho, |
| 105 | check, frown, diamond. Changes loz, vert, checkmark, smile and tilde. |
| 106 | |
| 107 | *** Anonymous export back-ends |
| 108 | |
| 109 | ~org-export-create-backend~ can create anonymous export back-ends, |
| 110 | which can then be passed to export functions like |
| 111 | ~org-export-to-file~, ~org-export-to-buffer~ or ~org-export-as~. |
| 112 | |
| 113 | It allows for quick translation of Org syntax without the overhead of |
| 114 | registering a new back-end. |
| 115 | |
| 116 | *** New agenda fortnight view |
| 117 | |
| 118 | The agenda has not, in addition to day, week, month, and year |
| 119 | views, also a fortnight view covering 14 days. |
| 120 | ** New options |
| 121 | |
| 122 | *** New option [[doc:org-bookmark-names-plist][org-bookmark-names-plist]] |
| 123 | |
| 124 | This allows to specify the names of automatic bookmarks. |
| 125 | *** New option [[doc:org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties][org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties]] |
| 126 | |
| 127 | This allows more flexibility when optimizing the agenda generation. |
| 128 | See http://orgmode.org/worg/agenda-optimization.html for details. |
| 129 | *** New option: [[doc:org-html-link-use-abs-url][org-html-link-use-abs-url]] to force using absolute URLs |
| 130 | |
| 131 | This is an export/publishing option, and should be used either within |
| 132 | the =#+OPTIONS= line(s) or within a [[doc:org-publish-project-alist][org-publish-project-alist]]. |
| 133 | |
| 134 | Setting this option to =t= is needed when the HTML output does not |
| 135 | allow relative URLs. For example, the =contrib/lisp/ox-rss.el= |
| 136 | library produces a RSS feed, and RSS feeds need to use absolute URLs, |
| 137 | so a combination of =:html-link-home "..." and :html-link-use-abs-url |
| 138 | t= is required---see the configuration example in the comment section |
| 139 | of =ox-rss.el=. |
| 140 | |
| 141 | *** New option [[doc:org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd][org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd]] |
| 142 | |
| 143 | This makes java executable configurable for ditaa blocks. |
| 144 | |
| 145 | *** New options [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex][org-babel-latex-htlatex]] and [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages][org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages]] |
| 146 | |
| 147 | This enables SVG generation from latex code blocks. |
| 148 | |
| 149 | *** New option: [[doc:org-habit-show-done-always-green][org-habit-show-done-always-green]] |
| 150 | |
| 151 | See [[http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-05/msg00214.html][this message]] from Max Mikhanosha. |
| 152 | |
| 153 | *** New option: [[doc:org-babel-inline-result-wrap][org-babel-inline-result-wrap]] |
| 154 | |
| 155 | If you set this to the following |
| 156 | |
| 157 | : (setq org-babel-inline-result-wrap "$%s$") |
| 158 | |
| 159 | then inline code snippets will be wrapped into the formatting string. |
| 160 | |
| 161 | *** New option: [[doc:org-special-ctrl-o][org-special-ctrl-o]] |
| 162 | |
| 163 | This variable can be used to turn off the special behavior of |
| 164 | =C-o= in tables. |
| 165 | ** New contributed packages |
| 166 | |
| 167 | - =ox-bibtex.el= by Nicolas Goaziou :: an utility to handle BibTeX |
| 168 | export to both LaTeX and HTML exports. It uses the [[http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/][bibtex2html]] |
| 169 | software. |
| 170 | |
| 171 | - =org-screenshot.el= by Max Mikhanosha :: an utility to handle |
| 172 | screenshots easily from Org, using the external tool [[http://freecode.com/projects/scrot][scrot]]. |
| 173 | |
| 174 | * Version 8.0.1 |
| 175 | |
| 176 | ** Installation |
| 177 | |
| 178 | Installation instructions have been updated and simplified. |
| 179 | |
| 180 | If you have troubles installing or updating Org, focus on these |
| 181 | instructions: |
| 182 | |
| 183 | - when updating via a =.zip/.tar.gz= file, you only need to set the |
| 184 | =load-path= in your =.emacs=. Set it before any other Org |
| 185 | customization that would call autoloaded Org functions. |
| 186 | |
| 187 | - when updating by pulling Org's Git repository, make sure to create the |
| 188 | correct autoloads. You can do this by running =~$ make autoloads= (to |
| 189 | only create the autoloads) or by running =~$ make= (to also compile |
| 190 | the Emacs lisp files.) =~$ make help= and =~$ make helpall= gives you |
| 191 | detailed explanations. |
| 192 | |
| 193 | - when updating through ELPA (either from GNU ELPA or from Org ELPA), |
| 194 | you have to install Org's ELPA package in a session where no Org |
| 195 | function has been called already. |
| 196 | |
| 197 | When in doubt, run =M-x org-version RET= and see if you have a mixed-up |
| 198 | installation. |
| 199 | |
| 200 | See http://orgmode.org/org.html#Installation for details. |
| 201 | |
| 202 | ** Incompatible changes |
| 203 | |
| 204 | Org 8.0 is the most disruptive major version of Org. |
| 205 | |
| 206 | If you configured export options, you will have to update some of them. |
| 207 | |
| 208 | If you used =#+ATTR_*= keywords, the syntax of the attributes changed and |
| 209 | you will have to update them. |
| 210 | |
| 211 | Below is a list of changes for which you need to take action. |
| 212 | |
| 213 | See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html for the most recent version of |
| 214 | this list and for detailed instructions on how to migrate. |
| 215 | |
| 216 | **** New export engine |
| 217 | |
| 218 | Org 8.0 comes with a new export engine written by Nicolas Goaziou. This |
| 219 | export engine relies on ~org-element.el~ (Org's syntax parser), which was |
| 220 | already in Org's core. This new export engine triggered the rewriting of |
| 221 | /all/ export back-ends. |
| 222 | |
| 223 | The most visible change is the export dispatcher, accessible through the |
| 224 | keybinding =C-c C-e=. By default, this menu only shows some of the |
| 225 | built-in export formats, but you can add more formats by loading them |
| 226 | directly (e.g., =(require 'ox-texinfo)= or by configuring the option |
| 227 | [[doc:org-export-backends][org-export-backends]]. |
| 228 | |
| 229 | More contributed back-ends are available from the =contrib/= directory, the |
| 230 | corresponding files start with the =ox-= prefix. |
| 231 | |
| 232 | If you customized an export back-end (like HTML or LaTeX), you will need to |
| 233 | rename some options so that your customization is not lost. Typically, an |
| 234 | option starting with =org-export-html-= is now named =org-html-=. See the |
| 235 | manual for details and check [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html][this Worg page]] for directions. |
| 236 | |
| 237 | **** New syntax for #+ATTR_HTML/LaTeX/... options |
| 238 | |
| 239 | : #+ATTR_HTML width="200px" |
| 240 | |
| 241 | should now be written |
| 242 | |
| 243 | : #+ATTR_HTML :width 200px |
| 244 | |
| 245 | Keywords like =#+ATTR_HTML= and =#+ATTR_LaTeX= are defined in their |
| 246 | respective back-ends, and the list of supported parameters depends on |
| 247 | each backend. See Org's manual for details. |
| 248 | |
| 249 | **** ~org-remember.el~ has been removed |
| 250 | |
| 251 | You cannot use =remember.el= anymore to capture notes. |
| 252 | |
| 253 | Support for remember templates has been obsoleted since long, it is |
| 254 | now fully removed. |
| 255 | |
| 256 | Use =M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET= to import your |
| 257 | remember templates into capture templates. |
| 258 | |
| 259 | **** ~org-jsinfo.el~ has been merged into ~ox-html.el~ |
| 260 | |
| 261 | If you were requiring ~ox-jsinfo.el~ in your ~.emacs.el~ file, you |
| 262 | will have to remove this requirement from your initialization file. |
| 263 | |
| 264 | **** Note for third-party developers |
| 265 | |
| 266 | The name of the files for export back-end have changed: we now use the |
| 267 | prefix =ox-= for those files (like we use the =ob-= prefix for Babel |
| 268 | files.) For example ~org-html.el~ is now ~ox-html.el~. |
| 269 | |
| 270 | If your code relies on these files, please update the names in your |
| 271 | code. |
| 272 | |
| 273 | **** Packages moved from core to contrib |
| 274 | |
| 275 | Since packages in Org's core are meant to be part of GNU Emacs, we try |
| 276 | to be minimalist when it comes to adding files into core. For 8.0, we |
| 277 | moved some contributions into the =contrib/= directory. |
| 278 | |
| 279 | The rationale for deciding that these files should live in =contrib/= |
| 280 | is either because they rely on third-party software that is not |
| 281 | included in Emacs, or because they are not targeting a significant |
| 282 | user-base. |
| 283 | |
| 284 | - org-colview-xemacs.el |
| 285 | - org-mac-message.el |
| 286 | - org-mew.el |
| 287 | - org-wl.el |
| 288 | - ox-freedmind.el |
| 289 | - ox-taskjuggler.el |
| 290 | |
| 291 | Note that ~ox-freedmind.el~ has been rewritten by Jambunathan, |
| 292 | ~org-mew.el~ has been enhanced by Tokuya Kameshima and |
| 293 | ~ox-taskjuggler.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and others. |
| 294 | |
| 295 | Also, the Taskjuggler exporter now uses TJ3 by default. John Hendy |
| 296 | wrote [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html][a tutorial on Worg]] for the TJ3 export. |
| 297 | |
| 298 | ** New packages in core |
| 299 | |

| 363 | presentations. ~ox-s5.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations |
| 364 | using =s5=. |
| 365 | |
| 366 | *** ~ox-groff.el~ by Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou |
| 367 | |
| 368 | The [[http://www.gnu.org/software/groff/][groff]] (GNU troff) software is a typesetting package which reads |
| 369 | plain text mixed with formatting commands and produces formatted |
| 370 | output. |
| 371 | |

| 382 | with the HTML publishing feature, this allows you to build a blog |
| 383 | entirely with Org. |
| 384 | |
| 385 | ** New features |
| 386 | |
| 387 | *** Export |
| 388 | |
| 389 | **** New export generic options |
| 390 | |
| 391 | If you use Org exporter, we advise you to re-read [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Exporting][the manual section about |
| 392 | it]]. It has been updated and includes new options. |
| 393 | |
| 394 | Among the new/updated export options, three are of particular importance: |
| 395 | |
| 396 | - [[doc:org-export-allow-bind-keywords][org-export-allow-bind-keywords]] :: This option replaces the old option |
| 397 | =org-export-allow-BIND= and the default value is =nil=, not =confirm=. |
| 398 | You will need to explicitly set this to =t= in your initialization |
| 399 | file if you want to allow =#+BIND= keywords. |
| 400 | |
| 401 | - [[doc:org-export-with-planning][org-export-with-planning]] :: This new option controls the export of |
| 402 | =SCHEDULED:, DEADLINE:, CLOSED:= lines, and planning information is |
| 403 | now skipped by default during export. This use to be the job of |
| 404 | [[doc:org-export-with-timestamps][org-export-with-timestamps]], but this latter option has been given a |
| 405 | new role: it controls the export of /standalone time-stamps/. When |
| 406 | set to =nil=, Org will not export active and inactive time-stamps |
| 407 | standing on a line by themselves or within a paragraph that only |
| 408 | contains time-stamps. |
| 409 | |
| 410 | To check if an option has been introduced or its default value changed in |
| 411 | Org 8.0, do =C-h v [option] RET= and check if the documentation says that |
| 412 | the variable has been introduced (or changed) in version 24.4 of Emacs. |
| 413 | |
| 414 | **** Enhanced default stylesheet for the HTML exporter |
| 415 | |
| 416 | See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-style-default][org-html-style-default]]. |
| 417 | |
| 418 | **** New tags, classes and ids for the HTML exporter |
| 419 | |
| 420 | See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-divs][org-html-divs]]. |
| 421 | |
| 422 | **** Support for tikz pictures in LaTeX export |
| 423 | **** ~org-man.el~: New export function for "man" links |
| 424 | **** ~org-docview.el~: New export function for docview links |
| 425 | *** Structure editing |
| 426 | |
| 427 | **** =C-u C-u M-RET= inserts a heading at the end of the parent subtree |
| 428 | **** Cycling to the =CONTENTS= view keeps inline tasks folded |
| 429 | |
| 430 | [[doc:org-cycle-hook][org-cycle-hook]] as a new function [[doc:org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks][org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks]] which |
| 431 | prevents the display of inline tasks when showing the content of a subtree. |
| 432 | |
| 433 | **** =C-c -= in a region makes a list item for each line |
| 434 | |
| 435 | This is the opposite of the previous behavior, where =C-c -= on a region |
| 436 | would create one item for the whole region, and where =C-u C-c -= would |
| 437 | create an item for each line. Now =C-c -= on the selected region creates |
| 438 | an item per line, and =C-u C-c -= creates a single item for the whole |
| 439 | region. |
| 440 | |
| 441 | **** When transposing words, markup characters are now part of the words |
| 442 | |
| 443 | In Emacs, you can transpose words with =M-t=. Transposing =*these* |
| 444 | _words__= will preserve markup. |
| 445 | |
| 446 | **** New command [[doc:org-set-property-and-value][org-set-property-and-value]] bound to =C-c C-x P= |
| 447 | |
| 448 | This command allows you to quickly add both the property and its value. It |
| 449 | is useful in buffers where there are many properties and where =C-c C-x p= |
| 450 | can slow down the flow of editing too much. |
| 451 | |
| 452 | **** New commands [[doc:org-next-block][org-next-block]] and [[doc:org-previous-block][org-previous-block]] |
| 453 | |
| 454 | These commands allow you to go to the previous block (=C-c M-b= or the |
| 455 | speedy key =B=) or to the next block (=C-c M-f= or the speedy key =F=.) |
| 456 | |
| 457 | **** New commands [[doc:org-drag-line-forward][org-drag-line-forward]] and [[doc:org-drag-line-backward][org-drag-line-backward]] |
| 458 | |
| 459 | These commands emulate the old behavior of =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= but are |
| 460 | now bound to =S-M-<down>= and =S-M-<up>= respectively, since =M-<down>= and |
| 461 | =M-<up>= now drag the whole element at point (a paragraph, a table, etc.) |
| 462 | forward and backward. |
| 463 | |
| 464 | **** When a list item has a checkbox, inserting a new item uses a checkbox too |
| 465 | **** When sorting entries/items, only the description of links is considered |
| 466 | |
| 467 | Now Org will sort this list |
| 468 | |
| 469 | : - [[http://abc.org][B]] |
| 470 | : - [[http://def.org][A]] |
| 471 | |
| 472 | like this: |
| 473 | |
| 474 | : - [[http://def.org][A]] |
| 475 | : - [[http://abc.org][B]] |
| 476 | |
| 477 | by comparing the descriptions, not the links. |
| 478 | Same when sorting headlines instead of list items. |
| 479 | **** New option =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= |
| 480 | |
| 481 | For example, setting this option to "^;;; " in Emacs lisp files and using |
| 482 | =orgstruct-mode= in those files will allow you to cycle through visibility |
| 483 | states as if lines starting with ";;; *..." where headlines. |
| 484 | |
| 485 | In general, you want to set =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= as a file |
| 486 | local variable. |
| 487 | |
| 488 | **** New behavior of [[doc:org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift][org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift]] |
| 489 | |
| 490 | The default is now to ask for a time-shift only when there is a time-stamp. |
| 491 | When called with a universal prefix argument =C-u=, it will not ask for a |
| 492 | time-shift even if there is a time-stamp. |
| 493 | |
| 494 | **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree][org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree]] |
| 495 | |
| 496 | This defaults to =t= so that the whole subtree is highlighted when you |
| 497 | restrict the agenda view to it with =C-c C-x <= (or the speed command =<=). |
| 498 | The default setting helps ensuring that you are not adding tasks after the |
| 499 | restricted region. If you find this highlighting too intrusive, set this |
| 500 | option to =nil=. |
| 501 | **** New option [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] |
| 502 | |
| 503 | When switching back from a =DONE= keyword to a =TODO= keyword, Org now |
| 504 | removes the =CLOSED= planning information, if any. It also removes this |
| 505 | information when going back to a non-TODO state (e.g., with =C-c C-t SPC=). |
| 506 | If you want to keep the =CLOSED= planning information when removing the |
| 507 | TODO keyword, set [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] to =t=. |
| 508 | |
| 509 | **** New option [[doc:org-image-actual-width][org-image-actual-width]] |
| 510 | |
| 511 | This option allows you to change the width of in-buffer displayed images. |
| 512 | The default is to use the actual width of the image, but you can use a |
| 513 | fixed value for all images, or fall back on an attribute like |
| 514 | |
| 515 | : #+attr_html: :width 300px |
| 516 | *** Scheduled/deadline |
| 517 | |
| 518 | **** Implement "delay" cookies for scheduled items |
| 519 | |
| 520 | If you want to delay the display of a scheduled task in the agenda, you can |
| 521 | now use a delay cookie like this: =SCHEDULED: <2004-12-25 Sat -2d>=. The |
| 522 | task is still scheduled on the 25th but will appear in your agenda starting |
| 523 | from two days later (i.e. from March 27th.) |
| 524 | |
| 525 | Imagine for example that your co-workers are not done in due time and tell |
| 526 | you "we need two more days". In that case, you may want to delay the |
| 527 | display of the task in your agenda by two days, but you still want the task |
| 528 | to appear as scheduled on March 25th. |
| 529 | |
| 530 | In case the task contains a repeater, the delay is considered to affect all |
| 531 | occurrences; if you want the delay to only affect the first scheduled |
| 532 | occurrence of the task, use =--2d= instead. See [[doc:org-scheduled-delay-days][org-scheduled-delay-days]] |
| 533 | and [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline]] for details on how to |
| 534 | control this globally or per agenda. |
| 535 | |
| 536 | **** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-s= will insert a delay cookie for scheduled tasks |
| 537 | |
| 538 | See the previous section for why delay cookies may be useful. |
| 539 | |
| 540 | **** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-d= will insert a warning delay for deadline tasks |
| 541 | |
| 542 | =C-u C-u C-c C-d= now inserts a warning delay to deadlines. |
| 543 | *** Calendar, diary and appts |
| 544 | |
| 545 | **** New variable [[doc:org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map][org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map]] |
| 546 | |
| 547 | By default, this new local map uses "." to go to today's date, like in the |
| 548 | normal =M-x calendar RET=. If you want to deactivate this and to reassign |
| 549 | the "@" key to =calendar-goto-today=, use this: |
| 550 | |
| 551 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp |
| 552 | ;; Unbind "." in Org's calendar: |
| 553 | (define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map (kbd ".") nil) |
| 554 | |
| 555 | ;; Bind "@" to `calendar-goto-today': |
| 556 | (define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map |
| 557 | (kbd "@") |
| 558 | (lambda () (interactive) (org-eval-in-calendar '(calendar-goto-today)))) |
| 559 | #+END_SRC |
| 560 | |
| 561 | **** In Org's calendar, =!= displays diary entries of the date at point |
| 562 | |
| 563 | This is useful when you want to check if you don't already have an |
| 564 | appointment when setting new ones with =C-c .= or =C-c s=. =!= will |
| 565 | call =diary-view-entries= and display the diary in a separate buffer. |
| 566 | |
| 567 | **** [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]]: only keep the descriptions of links |
| 568 | |
| 569 | [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]] returns diary information from Org files, but it returns it |
| 570 | in a diary buffer, not in an Org mode buffer. When links are displayed, |
| 571 | only show their description, not the full links. |
| 572 | *** Agenda |
| 573 | |
| 574 | **** New agenda type =agenda*= and entry types =:scheduled* :deadline*= |
| 575 | |
| 576 | When defining agenda custom commands, you can now use =agenda*=: this will |
| 577 | list entries that have both a date and a time. This is useful when you |
| 578 | want to build a list of appointments. |
| 579 | |
| 580 | You can also set [[doc:org-agenda-entry-types][org-agenda-entry-types]] either globally or locally in |
| 581 | each agenda custom command and use =:timestamp*= and/or =:deadline*= there. |
| 582 | |
| 583 | Another place where this is useful is your =.diary= file: |
| 584 | |
| 585 | : %%(org-diary :scheduled*) ~/org/rdv.org |
| 586 | |
| 587 | This will list only entries from =~/org/rdv.org= that are scheduled with a |
| 588 | time value (i.e. appointments). |
| 589 | |
| 590 | **** New agenda sorting strategies |
| 591 | |
| 592 | [[doc:org-agenda-sorting-strategy][org-agenda-sorting-strategy]] allows these new sorting strategies: |
| 593 | |
| 594 | | Strategy | Explanations | |
| 595 | |----------------+------------------------------------------| |
| 596 | | timestamp-up | Sort by any timestamp, early first | |
| 597 | | timestamp-down | Sort by any timestamp, late first | |
| 598 | | scheduled-up | Sort by scheduled timestamp, early first | |
| 599 | | scheduled-down | Sort by scheduled timestamp, late first | |
| 600 | | deadline-up | Sort by deadline timestamp, early first | |
| 601 | | deadline-down | Sort by deadline timestamp, late first | |
| 602 | | ts-up | Sort by active timestamp, early first | |
| 603 | | ts-down | Sort by active timestamp, late first | |
| 604 | | tsia-up | Sort by inactive timestamp, early first | |
| 605 | | tsia-down | Sort by inactive timestamp, late first | |
| 606 | |
| 607 | **** New options to limit the number of agenda entries |
| 608 | |
| 609 | You can now limit the number of entries in an agenda view. This is |
| 610 | different from filters: filters only /hide/ the entries in the agenda, |
| 611 | while limits are set while generating the list of agenda entries. |
| 612 | |
| 613 | These new options are available: |
| 614 | |
| 615 | - [[doc:org-agenda-max-entries][org-agenda-max-entries]] :: limit by number of entries. |
| 616 | - [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] :: limit by number of TODOs. |
| 617 | - [[doc:org-agenda-max-tags][org-agenda-max-tags]] :: limit by number of tagged entries. |
| 618 | - [[doc:org-agenda-max-effort][org-agenda-max-effort]] :: limit by effort (minutes). |
| 619 | |
| 620 | For example, if you locally set [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] to 3 in an agenda |
| 621 | view, the agenda will be limited to the first three todos. Other entries |
| 622 | without a TODO keyword or beyond the third TODO headline will be ignored. |
| 623 | |
| 624 | When setting a limit (e.g. about an effort's sum), the default behavior is |
| 625 | to exclude entries that cannot be checked against (e.g. entries that have |
| 626 | no effort property.) To include other entries too, you can set the limit |
| 627 | to a negative number. For example =(setq org-agenda-max-tags -3)= will not |
| 628 | show the fourth tagged headline (and beyond), but it will also show |
| 629 | non-tagged headlines. |
| 630 | |
| 631 | **** =~= in agenda view sets temporary limits |
| 632 | |
| 633 | You can hit =~= in the agenda to temporarily set limits: this will |
| 634 | regenerate the agenda as if the limits were set. This is useful for |
| 635 | example when you want to only see a list of =N= tasks, or a list of tasks |
| 636 | that take only =N= minutes. |
| 637 | |
| 638 | **** "=" in agenda view filters by regular expressions |
| 639 | |
| 640 | You can now filter agenda entries by regular expressions using ~=~. =C-u |
| 641 | == will filter entries out. Regexp filters are cumulative. You can set |
| 642 | [[doc:org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset][org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset]] to suit your needs in each agenda view. |
| 643 | |
| 644 | **** =|= in agenda view resets all filters |
| 645 | |
| 646 | Since it's common to combine tag filters, category filters, and now regexp |
| 647 | filters, there is a new command =|= to reset all filters at once. |
| 648 | |
| 649 | **** Allow writing an agenda to an =.org= file |
| 650 | |
| 651 | You can now write an agenda view to an =.org= file. It copies the |
| 652 | headlines and their content (but not subheadings) into the new file. |
| 653 | |
| 654 | This is useful when you want to quickly share an agenda containing the full |
| 655 | list of notes. |
| 656 | |
| 657 | **** New commands to drag an agenda line forward (=M-<down>=) or backward (=M-<up>=) |
| 658 | |
| 659 | It sometimes handy to move agenda lines around, just to quickly reorganize |
| 660 | your tasks, or maybe before saving the agenda to a file. Now you can use |
| 661 | =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= to move the line forward or backward. |
| 662 | |
| 663 | This does not persist after a refresh of the agenda, and this does not |
| 664 | change the =.org= files who contribute to the agenda. |
| 665 | |
| 666 | **** Use =%b= for displaying "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view |
| 667 | |
| 668 | [[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] now allows to use a =%b= formatter to tell Org |
| 669 | to display "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view. |
| 670 | |
| 671 | This is useful when you want to display the task hierarchy in your agenda. |
| 672 | |
| 673 | **** Use =%l= for displaying the headline's level in the agenda view |
| 674 | |
| 675 | [[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] allows to use a =%l= formatter to tell Org to |
| 676 | display entries with additional spaces corresponding to their level in the |
| 677 | outline tree. |
| 678 | |
| 679 | **** [[doc:org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] will ask before overwriting an existing file |
| 680 | |
| 681 | =M-x org-agenda-write RET= (or =C-c C-w= from an agenda buffer) used to |
| 682 | overwrite preexisting file with the same name without confirmation. It now |
| 683 | asks for a confirmation. |
| 684 | |
| 685 | **** New commands =M-m= and =M-*= to toggle (all) mark(s) for bulk action |
| 686 | |
| 687 | - [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle][org-agenda-bulk-toggle]] :: this command is bound to =M-m= and toggles |
| 688 | the mark of the entry at point. |
| 689 | |
| 690 | - [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all][org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all]] :: this command is bound to =M-*= and |
| 691 | toggles all the marks in the current agenda. |
| 692 | |
| 693 | **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level][org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level]] |
| 694 | |
| 695 | This option sets the maximum outline level to display in search view. |
| 696 | E.g. when this is set to 1, the search view will only show headlines of |
| 697 | level 1. |
| 698 | |
| 699 | **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds][org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds]] |
| 700 | |
| 701 | This allows to compare times using seconds instead of days when honoring |
| 702 | options like =org-agenda-todo-ignore-*= in the agenda display. |
| 703 | |
| 704 | **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-entry-text-leaders][org-agenda-entry-text-leaders]] |
| 705 | |
| 706 | This allows you to get rid of the ">" character that gets added in front of |
| 707 | entries excerpts when hitting =E= in the agenda view. |
| 708 | |
| 709 | **** New formatting string for past deadlines in [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]] |
| 710 | |
| 711 | The default formatting for past deadlines is ="%2d d. ago: "=, which makes |
| 712 | it explicit that the deadline is in the past. You can configure this via |
| 713 | [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]. Note that the width of the formatting |
| 714 | string is important to keep the agenda alignment clean. |
| 715 | |
| 716 | **** New allowed value =repeated-after-deadline= for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] |
| 717 | |
| 718 | When [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] is set to |
| 719 | =repeated-after-deadline=, the agenda will skip scheduled items if they are |
| 720 | repeated beyond the current deadline. |
| 721 | |
| 722 | **** New option for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled][org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled]] |
| 723 | |
| 724 | This variable may be set to nil, t, the symbol `pre-scheduled', or a number |
| 725 | which will then give the number of days before the actual deadline when the |
| 726 | prewarnings should resume. The symbol `pre-scheduled' eliminates the |
| 727 | deadline prewarning only prior to the scheduled date. |
| 728 | |
| 729 | Read the full docstring for details. |
| 730 | |
| 731 | **** [[doc:org-class][org-class]] now supports holiday strings in the skip-weeks parameter |
| 732 | |
| 733 | For example, this task will now be skipped only on new year's day: |
| 734 | |
| 735 | : * Task |
| 736 | : <%%(org-class 2012 1 1 2013 12 12 2 "New Year's Day")> |
| 737 | *** Capture |
| 738 | |
| 739 | **** Allow =C-1= as a prefix for [[doc:org-agenda-capture][org-agenda-capture]] and [[doc:org-capture][org-capture]] |
| 740 | |
| 741 | With a =C-1= prefix, the capture mechanism will use the =HH:MM= value at |
| 742 | point (if any) or the current =HH:MM= time as the default time for the |
| 743 | capture template. |
| 744 | |
| 745 | **** Expand keywords within %(sexp) placeholder in capture templates |
| 746 | |
| 747 | If you use a =%:keyword= construct within a =%(sexp)= construct, Org will |
| 748 | expand the keywords before expanding the =%(sexp)=. |
| 749 | |
| 750 | **** Allow to contextualize capture (and agenda) commands by checking the name of the buffer |
| 751 | |
| 752 | [[doc:org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] and [[doc:org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]] |
| 753 | allow you to define what capture templates and what agenda commands should |
| 754 | be available in various contexts. It is now possible for the context to |
| 755 | check against the name of the buffer. |
| 756 | *** Tag groups |
| 757 | |
| 758 | Using =#+TAGS: { Tag1 : Tag2 Tag3 }= will define =Tag1= as a /group tag/ |
| 759 | (note the colon after =Tag1=). If you search for =Tag1=, it will return |
| 760 | headlines containing either =Tag1=, =Tag2= or =Tag3= (or any combination |
| 761 | of those tags.) |
| 762 | |
| 763 | You can use group tags for sparse tree in an Org buffer, for creating |
| 764 | agenda views, and for filtering. |
| 765 | |
| 766 | See http://orgmode.org/org.html#Tag-groups for details. |
| 767 | |
| 768 | *** Links |
| 769 | |
| 770 | **** =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= will ignore non-core link functions |
| 771 | |
| 772 | Org knows how to store links from Org buffers, from info files and from |
| 773 | other Emacs buffers. Org can be taught how to store links from any buffer |
| 774 | through new link protocols (see [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Adding-hyperlink-types]["Adding hyperlink types"]] in the manual.) |
| 775 | |
| 776 | Sometimes you want Org to ignore added link protocols and store the link |
| 777 | as if the protocol was not known. |
| 778 | |
| 779 | You can now do this with =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET=. |
| 780 | |
| 781 | **** =C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= on an active region will store links for each lines |
| 782 | |
| 783 | Imagine for example that you want to store a link for every message in a |
| 784 | Gnus summary buffer. In that case =C-x h C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link |
| 785 | RET= will store a link for every line (i.e. message) if the region is |
| 786 | active. |
| 787 | |
| 788 | **** =C-c C-M-l= will add a default description for links which don't have one |
| 789 | |
| 790 | =C-c C-M-l= inserts all stored links. If a link does not have a |
| 791 | description, this command now adds a default one, so that we are not mixing |
| 792 | with-description and without-description links when inserting them. |
| 793 | |
| 794 | **** No curly braces to bracket links within internal links |
| 795 | |
| 796 | When storing a link to a headline like |
| 797 | |
| 798 | : * See [[http://orgmode.org][Org website]] |
| 799 | |
| 800 | [[doc:org-store-link][org-store-link]] used to convert the square brackets into curly brackets. |
| 801 | It does not anymore, taking the link description or the link path, when |
| 802 | there is no description. |
| 803 | *** Table |
| 804 | |
| 805 | **** Switching between #+TBLFM lines |
| 806 | |
| 807 | If you have several =#+TBLFM= lines below a table, =C-c C-c= on a line will |
| 808 | apply the formulas from this line, and =C-c C-c= on another line will apply |
| 809 | those other formulas. |
| 810 | |
| 811 | **** You now use "nan" for empty fields in Calc formulas |
| 812 | |
| 813 | If empty fields are of interest, it is recommended to reread the section |
| 814 | [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc][3.5.2 Formula syntax for Calc]] of the manual because the description for the |
| 815 | mode strings has been clarified and new examples have been added towards |
| 816 | the end. |
| 817 | |
| 818 | **** Handle localized time-stamps in formulas evaluation |
| 819 | |
| 820 | If your =LOCALE= is set so that Org time-stamps use another language than |
| 821 | english, and if you make time computations in Org's table, it now works by |
| 822 | internally converting the time-stamps with a temporary =LOCALE=C= before |
| 823 | doing computation. |
| 824 | |
| 825 | **** New lookup functions |
| 826 | |
| 827 | There are now three lookup functions: |
| 828 | |
| 829 | - [[doc:org-loopup-first][org-loopup-first]] |
| 830 | - [[doc:org-loopup-last][org-loopup-last]] |
| 831 | - [[doc:org-loopup-all][org-loopup-all]] |
| 832 | |
| 833 | See [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Lookup-functions][the manual]] for details. |
| 834 | *** Startup keywords |
| 835 | |
| 836 | These new startup keywords are now available: |
| 837 | |
| 838 | | Startup keyword | Option | |
| 839 | |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------| |
| 840 | | =#+STARTUP: logdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer t)= | |
| 841 | | =#+STARTUP: nologdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer nil)= | |
| 842 | |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------| |
| 843 | | =#+STARTUP: logstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed t)= | |
| 844 | | =#+STARTUP: nologstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed nil)= | |
| 845 | |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------| |
| 846 | | =#+STARTUP: latexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview t)= | |
| 847 | | =#+STARTUP: nolatexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview nil)= | |
| 848 | |
| 849 | *** Clocking |
| 850 | |
| 851 | **** New option [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] |
| 852 | |
| 853 | E.g. if [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] is set to 5, time is 14:47 and you |
| 854 | clock in: then the clock starts at 14:45. If you clock out within the next |
| 855 | 5 minutes, the clock line will be removed; if you clock out 8 minutes after |
| 856 | your clocked in, the clock out time will be 14:50. |
| 857 | |
| 858 | **** New option [[doc:org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations][org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations]] |
| 859 | |
| 860 | When non-nil, =C-c C-x C-d= uses effort durations. E.g., by default, one |
| 861 | day is considered to be a 8 hours effort, so a task that has been clocked |
| 862 | for 16 hours will be displayed as during 2 days in the clock display or in |
| 863 | the clocktable. |
| 864 | |
| 865 | See [[doc:org-effort-durations][org-effort-durations]] on how to set effort durations and |
| 866 | [[doc:org-time-clocksum-format][org-time-clocksum-format]] for more on time clock formats. |
| 867 | |
| 868 | **** New option [[doc:org-clock-x11idle-program-name][org-clock-x11idle-program-name]] |
| 869 | |
| 870 | This allows to set the name of the program which prints X11 idle time in |
| 871 | milliseconds. The default is to use =x11idle=. |
| 872 | |
| 873 | **** New option [[doc:org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time][org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time]] |
| 874 | |
| 875 | When non-nil, use the last clock out time for [[doc:org-todo][org-todo]]. Note that this |
| 876 | option has precedence over the combined use of [[doc:org-use-effective-time][org-use-effective-time]] and |
| 877 | [[doc:org-extend-today-until][org-extend-today-until]]. |
| 878 | |
| 879 | **** =S-<left/right>= on a clocksum column will update the sum by updating the last clock |
| 880 | **** =C-u 3 C-S-<up/down>= will update clock timestamps synchronously by 3 units |
| 881 | **** New parameter =:wstart= for clocktables to define the week start day |
| 882 | **** New parameter =:mstart= to state the starting day of the month |
| 883 | **** Allow relative times in clocktable tstart and tend options |
| 884 | **** The clocktable summary is now a caption |
| 885 | **** =:tstart= and =:tend= and friends allow relative times like "<-1w>" or "<now>" |
| 886 | *** Babel |
| 887 | |
| 888 | **** You can now use =C-c C-k= for [[doc:org-edit-src-abort][org-edit-src-abort]] |
| 889 | |
| 890 | This allows you to quickly cancel editing a source block. |
| 891 | |
| 892 | **** =C-u C-u M-x org-babel-tangle RET= tangles by the target file of the block at point |
| 893 | |
| 894 | This is handy if you want to tangle all source code blocks that have the |
| 895 | same target than the block at point. |
| 896 | |
| 897 | **** New options for auto-saving the base buffer or the source block editing buffer |
| 898 | |
| 899 | When [[doc:org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save][org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save]] is set to =t=, editing a source block |
| 900 | in a new window will turn on =auto-save-mode= and save the code in a new |
| 901 | file under the same directory than the base Org file. |
| 902 | |
| 903 | When [[doc:org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay][org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay]] is set to a number of minutes =N=, |
| 904 | the base Org buffer will be saved after this number of minutes of idle |
| 905 | time. |
| 906 | |
| 907 | **** New =:post= header argument post-processes results |
| 908 | |
| 909 | This header argument may be used to pass the results of the current |
| 910 | code block through another code block for post-processing. See the |
| 911 | manual for a usage example. |
| 912 | |
| 913 | **** Commented out heading are ignored when collecting blocks for tangling |
| 914 | |
| 915 | If you comment out a heading (with =C-c ;= anywhere on the heading or in |
| 916 | the subtree), code blocks from within this heading are now ignored when |
| 917 | collecting blocks for tangling. |
| 918 | |
| 919 | **** New option [[doc:org-babel-hash-show-time][org-babel-hash-show-time]] to show a time-stamp in the result hash |
| 920 | **** Do not ask for confirmation if cached value is current |
| 921 | |
| 922 | Do not run [[doc:org-babel-confirm-evaluate][org-babel-confirm-evaluate]] if source block has a cache and the |
| 923 | cache value is current as there is no evaluation involved in this case. |
| 924 | **** =ob-sql.el= and =ob-python.el= have been improved. |
| 925 | **** New Babel files only need to =(require 'ob)= |
| 926 | |
| 927 | When writing a new Babel file, you now only need to use =(require 'ob)= |
| 928 | instead of requiring each Babel library one by one. |
| 929 | *** Faces |
| 930 | |
| 931 | - Org now fontifies radio link targets by default |
| 932 | - In the agenda, use [[doc:org-todo-keyword-faces][org-todo-keyword-faces]] to highlight selected TODO keywords |
| 933 | - New face [[doc:org-priority][org-priority]], enhanced fontification of priority cookies in agenda |
| 934 | - New face [[doc:org-tag-group][org-tag-group]] for group tags |
| 935 | |
| 936 | ** Miscellaneous |
| 937 | |
| 938 | - New speedy key =s= pour [[doc:org-narrow-to-subtree][org-narrow-to-subtree]] |
| 939 | - Handling of [[doc:org-html-table-row][org-html-table-row]] has been updated (incompatible change) |
| 940 | - [[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]] |
| 941 | - Support using =git-annex= with Org attachments |
| 942 | - org-protocol: Pass optional value using query in url to capture from protocol |
| 943 | - When the refile history is empty, use the current filename as default |
| 944 | - When you cannot change the TODO state of a task, Org displays the blocking task |
| 945 | - New option [[doc:org-mobile-allpriorities][org-mobile-allpriorities]] |
| 946 | - org-bibtex.el now use =visual-line-mode= instead of the deprecated =longlines-mode= |
| 947 | - [[doc:org-format-latex-options][org-format-latex-options]] allows to set the foreground/background colors automatically |
| 948 | - New option [[doc:org-archive-file-header-format][org-archive-file-header-format]] |
| 949 | - New "neg" entity in [[doc:org-entities][org-entities]] |
| 950 | - New function [[doc:org-docview-export][org-docview-export]] to export docview links |
| 951 | - New =:eps= header argument for ditaa code blocks |
| 952 | - New option [[doc:org-gnus-no-server][org-gnus-no-server]] to start Gnus with =gnus-no-server= |
| 953 | - Org is now distributed with =htmlize.el= version 1.43 |
| 954 | - ~org-drill.el~ has been updated to version 2.3.7 |
| 955 | - ~org-mac-iCal.el~ now supports MacOSX version up to 10.8 |
| 956 | - Various improvements to ~org-contacts.el~ and =orgpan.el= |
| 957 | |
| 958 | ** Outside Org |
| 959 | |
| 960 | *** Spanish translation of the Org guide by David Arroyo Menรฉndez |
| 961 | |
| 962 | David (and others) translated the Org compact guide in spanish: |
| 963 | |
| 964 | You can read the [[http://orgmode.org/worg/orgguide/orgguide.es.pdf][PDF guide]]. |
| 965 | |
| 966 | *** ~poporg.el~ and ~outorg.el~ |
| 967 | |
| 968 | Two new libraries (~poporg.el~ by Franรงois Pinard and ~outorg.el~ by |
| 969 | Thorsten Jolitz) now enable editing of comment-sections from source-code |
| 970 | buffers in temporary Org-mode buffers, making the full editing power of |
| 971 | Org-mode available. ~outorg.el~ comes together with ~outshine.el~ and |
| 972 | ~navi-mode.el~, two more libraries by Thorsten Jolitz with the goal to give |
| 973 | source-code buffers the /look & feel/ of Org-mode buffers while greatly |
| 974 | improving navigation and structure editing. A detailed description can be |
| 975 | found here: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html |
| 976 | |
| 977 | Here are two screencasts demonstrating Thorsten's tools: |
| 978 | |
| 979 | - [[http://youtu.be/nqE6YxlY0rw]["Modern conventions for Emacs Lisp files"]] |
| 980 | - [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v%3DII-xYw5VGFM][Exploring Bernt Hansen's Org-mode tutorial with 'navi-mode']] |
| 981 | |
| 982 | *** MobileOrg for iOS |
| 983 | |
| 984 | MobileOrg for iOS back in the App Store The 1.6.0 release was focused on |
| 985 | the new Dropbox API and minor bug fixes but also includes a new ability to |
| 986 | launch in Capture mode. Track development and contribute [[https://github.com/MobileOrg/mobileorg/issues][on github]]. |
| 987 | |
| 988 | * Version 7.9.3 |
| 989 | |
| 990 | ** New option [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]] |
| 991 | |
| 992 | [[doc::org-use-tag-inheritance][org-use-tag-inheritance]] controls whether tags are inherited when |
| 993 | org-tags-view is called (either in =tags=, =tags-tree= or =tags-todo= |
| 994 | agenda views.) |
| 995 | |
| 996 | When generating other agenda types such as =agenda=, =todo= and |
| 997 | =todo-tree=, tags inheritance is not used when selecting the entries |
| 998 | to display. Still, you might want to have all tag information correct |
| 999 | in the agenda buffer, e.g. for tag filtering. In that case, add the |
| 1000 | agenda type to this variable. |
| 1001 | |
| 1002 | Setting this variable to nil should considerably speeds up the agenda |
| 1003 | generation. |
| 1004 | |
| 1005 | Note that the default was to display inherited tags in the agenda |
| 1006 | lines even if `org-use-tag-inheritance' was nil. The default is now |
| 1007 | to *never* display inherited tags in agenda lines, but to /know/ about |
| 1008 | them when the agenda type is listed in [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]]. |
| 1009 | |
| 1010 | ** New default value nil for [[doc::org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks][org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks]] |
| 1011 | |
| 1012 | Using `nil' as the default value speeds up the agenda generation. You |
| 1013 | can hit `#' (or `C-u #') in agenda buffers to temporarily dim (or turn |
| 1014 | invisible) blocked tasks. |
| 1015 | |
| 1016 | ** New speedy keys for [[doc::org-speed-commands-default][org-speed-commands-default]] |
| 1017 | |
| 1018 | You can now use `:' (instead of `;') for setting tags---this is |
| 1019 | consistent with using the `:' key in agenda view. |
| 1020 | |
| 1021 | You can now use `=' for [[doc::org-columns][org-columns]]. |
| 1022 | |
| 1023 | ** =org-float= is now obsolete, use =diary-float= instead |
| 1024 | ** Enhanced compatibility with Emacs 22 and XEmacs |
| 1025 | |
| 1026 | Thanks to Achim for his work on enhancing Org's compatibility with |
| 1027 | various Emacsen. Things may not be perfect, but Org should work okay |
| 1028 | in most environments. |
| 1029 | |
| 1030 | * Version 7.9.2 |
| 1031 | |
| 1032 | ** New ELPA repository for Org packages |
| 1033 | |
| 1034 | You can now add the Org ELPA repository like this: |
| 1035 | |
| 1036 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp |
| 1037 | (add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "http://orgmode.org/elpa/") t) |
| 1038 | #+END_SRC |
| 1039 | |
| 1040 | It contains both the =org-*.tar= package (the core Org distribution, also |
| 1041 | available through http://elpa.gnu.org) and the =org-plus*.tar= package (the |
| 1042 | extended Org distribution, with non-GNU packages from the =contrib/= |
| 1043 | directory.) |
| 1044 | |
| 1045 | See http://orgmode.org/elpa/ |
| 1046 | |
| 1047 | ** Overview of the new keybindings |
| 1048 | |
| 1049 | | Keybinding | Speedy | Command | |
| 1050 | |-----------------+--------+-----------------------------| |
| 1051 | | =C-c C-x C-z= | | [[doc::org-clock-resolve][org-clock-resolve]] | |

| 1061 | | | =W= | Set =APPT_WARNTIME= | |
| 1062 | | =k= | | [[doc::org-agenda-capture][org-agenda-capture]] | |
| 1063 | | C-c , | , | [[doc::org-priority][org-priority]] | |
| 1064 | |
| 1065 | ** New package and Babel language |
| 1066 | |
| 1067 | *** =org-eshell.el= by Konrad Hinsen is now in Org |
| 1068 | |
| 1069 | =org-eshell.el= allows you to create links from [[http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eshell/index.html][Eshell]]. |
| 1070 | |
| 1071 | *** Support for execution of Scala code blocks (see ob-scala.el) |
| 1072 | *** Support for execution of IO code blocks (see ob-io.el) |
| 1073 | |
| 1074 | ** Incompatible changes |
| 1075 | |
| 1076 | - If your code relies on =org-write-agenda=, please use |
| 1077 | [[doc::org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] from now on. |
| 1078 | |
| 1079 | - If your code relies on =org-make-link=, please use =concat= |
| 1080 | instead. |
| 1081 | |
| 1082 | - =org-link-to-org-use-id= has been renamed to |
| 1083 | =org-id-link-to-org-use-id= and its default value is nil. The |
| 1084 | previous default was =create-if-interactive-and-no-custom-id=. |
| 1085 | |
| 1086 | ** New features and user-visible changes |
| 1087 | |
| 1088 | *** Org Element |
| 1089 | |
| 1090 | =org-element.el= is a toolbox for parsing and analyzing "elements" |
| 1091 | in an Org-mode buffer. This has been written by Nicolas Goaziou |
| 1092 | and has been tested for quite some time. It is now part of Org's |
| 1093 | core and many core functions rely on this package. |
| 1094 | |
| 1095 | Two functions might be particularly handy for users: |
| 1096 | =org-element-at-point= and =org-element-context=. |
| 1097 | |
| 1098 | See the docstrings for more details. |
| 1099 | |
| 1100 | Below is a list of editing and navigating commands that now rely |
| 1101 | on =org-element.el=. |
| 1102 | |
| 1103 | **** [[doc::org-fill-paragraph][org-fill-paragraph]] has been completely rewritten |
| 1104 | |
| 1105 | The filling mechanisms now rely on org-element, trying to do the |
| 1106 | right thing on each element in various contexts. E.g. filling in |
| 1107 | a list item will preserve indentation; filling in message-mode |
| 1108 | will fall back on the relevant filling functions; etc. |
| 1109 | |
| 1110 | **** [[doc::org-metaup][org-metaup]] and [[doc::org-metadown][org-metadown]] will drag the element backward/forward |
| 1111 | |
| 1112 | If you want to get the old behavior (i.e. moving a line up and |
| 1113 | down), you can first select the line as an active region, then |
| 1114 | =org-metaup= or =org-metadown= to move the region backward or |
| 1115 | forward. This also works with regions bigger than just one line. |
| 1116 | |
| 1117 | **** [[doc::org-up-element][org-up-element]] and [[doc::org-down-element][org-down-element]] (respectively =C-c C-^= and =C-c C-_=) |
| 1118 | |
| 1119 | This will move the point up/down in the hierarchy of elements. |
| 1120 | |
| 1121 | **** [[doc::org-backward-element][org-backward-element]] and [[doc::org-forward-element][org-forward-element]] (respectively =M-{= and =M-}=) |
| 1122 | |
| 1123 | This will move the point backward/forward in the hierarchy of |
| 1124 | elements. |
| 1125 | |
| 1126 | **** [[doc::org-narrow-to-element][org-narrow-to-element]] will narrow to the element at point |
| 1127 | **** [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] will mark the element at point |
| 1128 | |
| 1129 | This command is bound to =M-h= and will mark the element at |
| 1130 | point. If the point is at a paragraph, it will mark the |
| 1131 | paragraph. If the point is at a list item, it will mark the list |
| 1132 | item. Etc. |
| 1133 | |
| 1134 | Note that if point is at the beginning of a list, it will mark |
| 1135 | the whole list. |
| 1136 | |
| 1137 | To mark a subtree, you can either use =M-h= on the headline |
| 1138 | (since there is no ambiguity about the element you're at) or |
| 1139 | [[doc::org-mark-subtree][org-mark-subtree]] (=C-c @=) anywhere in the subtree. |
| 1140 | |
| 1141 | Invoking [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] repeatedly will try to mark the next |
| 1142 | element on top of the previous one(s). E.g. hitting =M-h= twice |
| 1143 | on a headline will mark the current subtree and the next one on |
| 1144 | the same level. |
| 1145 | |
| 1146 | *** Org Agenda |
| 1147 | |
| 1148 | **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] |
| 1149 | |
| 1150 | There is a new option =org-agenda-sticky= which enables "sticky" |
| 1151 | agendas. Sticky agendas remain opened in the background so that |
| 1152 | you don't need to regenerate them each time you hit the |
| 1153 | corresponding keystroke. This is a big time saver. |
| 1154 | |
| 1155 | When [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is =non-nil=, the agenda buffer will be |
| 1156 | named using the agenda key and its description. In sticky |
| 1157 | agendas, the =q= key will just bury the agenda buffers and |
| 1158 | further agenda commands will show existing buffer instead of |
| 1159 | generating new ones. |
| 1160 | |
| 1161 | If [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is set to =nil=, =q= will kill the single |
| 1162 | agenda buffer. |
| 1163 | |
| 1164 | **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]] |
| 1165 | |
| 1166 | Setting this option allows you to define specific context where |
| 1167 | agenda commands should be available from. For example, when set |
| 1168 | to this value |
| 1169 | |
| 1170 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp |
| 1171 | (setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts |
| 1172 | '(("p" (in-file . "\\.txt")))) |
| 1173 | #+END_SRC |
| 1174 | |
| 1175 | then the =p= agenda command will only be available from buffers |
| 1176 | visiting *.txt files. See the docstring and the manual for more |
| 1177 | details on how to use this. |
| 1178 | |
| 1179 | **** Changes in bulk actions |
| 1180 | |
| 1181 | The set of commands starting with =k ...= as been deleted and the |
| 1182 | features have been merged into the "bulk action" feature. |
| 1183 | |
| 1184 | After you marked some entries in the agenda, if you call =B s=, |
| 1185 | the agenda entries will be rescheduled using the date at point if |
| 1186 | on a date header. If you are on an entry with a timestamp, you |
| 1187 | will be prompted for a date to reschedule your marked entries to, |
| 1188 | using the timestamp at point as the default prompt. |
| 1189 | |
| 1190 | You can now use =k= to capture the marked entry and use the date |
| 1191 | at point as an overriding date for the capture template. |
| 1192 | |
| 1193 | To bind this behavior to =M-x org-capture RET= (or its |
| 1194 | keybinding), set the new option [[doc::org-capture-use-agenda-date][org-capture-use-agenda-date]] to |
| 1195 | =t=. |
| 1196 | |
| 1197 | **** =N= and =P= in the agenda will move to the next/previous item |
| 1198 | |
| 1199 | **** New command [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-all][org-agenda-bulk-mark-all]] to mark all items |
| 1200 | |
| 1201 | This new command is bound to =*= in agenda mode. |
| 1202 | |
| 1203 | There is also a new option [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-char][org-agenda-bulk-mark-char]] to set the |
| 1204 | character to use as a mark for bulk actions. |
| 1205 | |
| 1206 | **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-persistent-marks][org-agenda-persistent-marks]] |
| 1207 | |
| 1208 | When set to =non-nil=, marks will remain visible after a bulk |
| 1209 | action. You can temporarily toggle this by pressing =p= when |
| 1210 | invoking [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-action][org-agenda-bulk-action]]. Marks are deleted if your |
| 1211 | rebuild the agenda buffer or move to another date/span (e.g. with |
| 1212 | =f= or =w=). |
| 1213 | |
| 1214 | **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown]] |
| 1215 | |
| 1216 | =Non-nil= means skip timestamp line if same entry shows because |
| 1217 | of deadline. |
| 1218 | |
| 1219 | In the agenda of today, an entry can show up multiple times |
| 1220 | because it has both a plain timestamp and has a nearby deadline. |
| 1221 | When this variable is t, then only the deadline is shown and the |
| 1222 | fact that the entry has a timestamp for or including today is not |
| 1223 | shown. When this variable is =nil=, the entry will be shown |
| 1224 | several times. |
| 1225 | |
| 1226 | **** New =todo-unblocked= and =nottodo-unblocked= skip conditions |
| 1227 | |
| 1228 | See the [[http://orgmode.org/w/?p%3Dorg-mode.git%3Ba%3Dcommit%3Bh%3Df426da][git commit]] for more explanations. |
| 1229 | |
| 1230 | **** Allow category filtering in the agenda |
| 1231 | |
| 1232 | You can now filter the agenda by category. Pressing "<" will |
| 1233 | filter by the category of the item on the current line, and |
| 1234 | pressing "<" again will remove the filter. You can combine tag |
| 1235 | filters and category filters. |
| 1236 | |
| 1237 | You can use =org-agenda-category-filter= in your custom agenda |
| 1238 | views and =org-agenda-category-filter-preset= in your main |
| 1239 | configuration. |
| 1240 | |
| 1241 | See also the new command [[doc::org-agenda-filter-by-top-category][org-agenda-filter-by-top-category]]: |
| 1242 | hitting =^= will filter by "Top" category: only show entries that |
| 1243 | are of the same category than the Top category of the entry at |
| 1244 | point. |
| 1245 | |
| 1246 | *** Org Links |
| 1247 | |
| 1248 | **** Inserting links |
| 1249 | |
| 1250 | When inserting links through [[doc::org-insert-link][org-insert-link]], the description is |
| 1251 | now displayed first, followed by the literal link, as the |
| 1252 | description is often more useful when you look for the link you |
| 1253 | want to insert. |
| 1254 | |
| 1255 | Completion now complete both literal links and description. If |
| 1256 | you complete a description, the literal link and its description |
| 1257 | will be inserted directly, whereas when you complete the literal |
| 1258 | link, you will be prompted for a description (as with Org 7.8.) |
| 1259 | |
| 1260 | In the completion buffer, links to the current buffer are now |
| 1261 | highlighted. |
| 1262 | |
| 1263 | **** New templates =%h= and =%(sexp)= for abbreviated links |
| 1264 | |
| 1265 | On top of =%s= template, which is replaced by the link tag in |
| 1266 | abbreviated links, you can now use =%h= (which does the same than =%s= |
| 1267 | but does not hexify the tag) and =%(sexp)= (which can run a function |
| 1268 | that takes the tag as its own argument.) |
| 1269 | |
| 1270 | **** New link type =help= |
| 1271 | |
| 1272 | You can now create links from =help= buffers. |
| 1273 | |
| 1274 | For example, if you request help for the command [[doc::org-agenda][org-agenda]] with |
| 1275 | =C-h f org-agenda RET=, creating a link from this buffer will let |
| 1276 | you go back to the same buffer. |
| 1277 | |
| 1278 | **** New command [[doc::org-insert-all-links][org-insert-all-links]] |
| 1279 | |
| 1280 | This will insert all links as list items. With a universal |
| 1281 | prefix argument, links will not be deleted from the variable |
| 1282 | =org-stored-links=. |
| 1283 | |
| 1284 | This new command is bound to =C-c C-M-l=. |
| 1285 | |
| 1286 | **** New option [[doc::org-url-hexify-p][org-url-hexify-p]] |
| 1287 | |
| 1288 | When set to =nil=, the =URL= part of a link will not be hexified. |
| 1289 | |
| 1290 | **** Org can now open multiple shell links |
| 1291 | |
| 1292 | **** New option [[doc::org-doi-server-url][org-doi-server-url]] to specify an alternate DOI server |
| 1293 | |
| 1294 | **** RET now follows time stamps links |
| 1295 | |
| 1296 | *** Org Editing |
| 1297 | |
| 1298 | **** [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] and =org-archive-*= can now loop in the active region |
| 1299 | |
| 1300 | When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, using |
| 1301 | [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] or =org-archive-*= commands in the active region will |
| 1302 | loop over headlines. This is handy if you want to set the TODO |
| 1303 | keyword for several items, or archive them quickly. |
| 1304 | |
| 1305 | **** You can now set tags for headlines in a region |
| 1306 | |
| 1307 | If [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, then |
| 1308 | selecting the region and hitting =C-c C-q= will set the tags for |
| 1309 | all headlines in the region. |
| 1310 | |
| 1311 | **** New command [[doc::org-insert-drawer][org-insert-drawer]] to insert a drawer interactively |
| 1312 | |
| 1313 | **** Comments start with "^[ \t]*# " anywhere on a line |
| 1314 | |
| 1315 | Note that the space after the hashtag is mandatory. Comments |
| 1316 | with "^#+" are not supported anymore. |
| 1317 | |
| 1318 | **** New speed key =#= to toggle the COMMENT cookie on a headline |
| 1319 | |
| 1320 | **** =indent-region-function= is now set to [[doc::org-indent-region][org-indent-region]] |
| 1321 | |
| 1322 | =C-M-\= should now produce useful results. |
| 1323 | |
| 1324 | You can unindent the buffer with [[doc::org-unindent-buffer][org-unindent-buffer]]. |
| 1325 | |
| 1326 | **** New option [[doc::org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree][org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree]] |
| 1327 | |
| 1328 | When =non-nil=, =S-M-<left>= will promote level-1 subtrees |
| 1329 | containing other subtrees. The level-1 headline will be |
| 1330 | commented out. You can revert to the previous state with =M-x |
| 1331 | undo RET=. |
| 1332 | |
| 1333 | *** Org Clock |
| 1334 | |
| 1335 | **** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-z= for [[doc::org-clock-resolve][org-clock-resolve]] |
| 1336 | |
| 1337 | **** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-q= for [[doc::org-clock-cancel][org-clock-cancel]] |
| 1338 | |
| 1339 | **** New command [[doc::org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] to clock in the last clocked item |
| 1340 | |
| 1341 | This command is bound to =C-c C-x C-x= and will clock in the last |
| 1342 | clocked entry, if any. |
| 1343 | |
| 1344 | **** =C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-out][org-clock-out]] =RET= now prompts for a state to switch to |
| 1345 | |
| 1346 | **** =S-M-<up/down>= on a clock timestamps adjusts the previous/next clock |
| 1347 | |
| 1348 | **** New option [[doc::org-clock-continuously][org-clock-continuously]] |
| 1349 | |
| 1350 | When set to =nil=, clocking in a task will first try to find the |
| 1351 | last clocked out task and restart from when that task was clocked |
| 1352 | out. |
| 1353 | |
| 1354 | You can temporarily activate continuous clocking with =C-u C-u |
| 1355 | C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-in][org-clock-in]] =RET= (three universal prefix arguments) |
| 1356 | and =C-u C-u M-x= [[org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] =RET= (two universal prefix |
| 1357 | arguments). |
| 1358 | |
| 1359 | |
| 1360 | **** New option [[doc::org-clock-frame-title-format][org-clock-frame-title-format]] |
| 1361 | |
| 1362 | This option sets the value of =frame-title-format= when clocking |
| 1363 | in. |
| 1364 | |
| 1365 | **** New options for controlling the clockreport display |
| 1366 | |
| 1367 | [[doc::org-clock-file-time-cell-format][org-clock-file-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the file time |
| 1368 | cells in clockreport. |
| 1369 | |
| 1370 | [[doc::org-clock-total-time-cell-format][org-clock-total-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the total |
| 1371 | time cells in clockreport. |
| 1372 | |
| 1373 | |
| 1374 | **** New options for controlling the clock/timer display |
| 1375 | |
| 1376 | [[doc::org-clock-clocked-in-display][org-clock-clocked-in-display]]: control whether the current clock |
| 1377 | is displayed in the mode line and/or frame title. |
| 1378 | |
| 1379 | [[doc::org-timer-display][org-timer-display]]: control whether the current timer is displayed |
| 1380 | in the mode line and/or frame title. |
| 1381 | |
| 1382 | This allows the clock and timer to be displayed in the frame |
| 1383 | title instead of, or as well as, the mode line. This is useful |
| 1384 | for people with limited space in the mode line but with ample |
| 1385 | space in the frame title. |
| 1386 | |
| 1387 | *** Org Appearance |
| 1388 | |
| 1389 | **** New option [[doc::org-custom-properties][org-custom-properties]] |
| 1390 | |
| 1391 | The visibility of properties listed in this options can be turn |
| 1392 | on/off with [[doc::org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility][org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility]]. This might |
| 1393 | be useful for properties used by third-part tools or that you |
| 1394 | don't want to see temporarily. |
| 1395 | |
| 1396 | **** New command [[doc::org-redisplay-inline-images][org-redisplay-inline-images]] |
| 1397 | |
| 1398 | This will redisplay all images. It is bound to =C-c C-x C-M-v=. |
| 1399 | |
| 1400 | **** New entities in =org-entities.el= |
| 1401 | |
| 1402 | There are these new entities: |
| 1403 | |
| 1404 | : ("tilde" "\\~{}" nil "˜" "~" "~" "~") |
| 1405 | : ("slash" "/" nil "/" "/" "/" "/") |
| 1406 | : ("plus" "+" nil "+" "+" "+" "+") |
| 1407 | : ("under" "\\_" nil "_" "_" "_" "_") |
| 1408 | : ("equal" "=" nil "=" "=" "=" "=") |
| 1409 | : ("asciicirc" "\\textasciicircum{}" nil "^" "^" "^" "^") |
| 1410 | |
| 1411 | **** New face =org-list-dt= for definition terms |
| 1412 | **** New face =org-date-selected= for the selected calendar day |
| 1413 | **** New face value for =org-document-title= |
| 1414 | |
| 1415 | The face is back to a normal height. |
| 1416 | |
| 1417 | *** Org Columns |
| 1418 | |
| 1419 | **** New speed command =:= to activate the column view |
| 1420 | **** New special property =CLOCKSUM_T= to display today's clocked time |
| 1421 | |
| 1422 | You can use =CLOCKSUM_T= the same way you use =CLOCKSUM=. It |
| 1423 | will display the time spent on tasks for today only. |
| 1424 | |
| 1425 | **** Use the =:COLUMNS:= property in columnview dynamic blocks |
| 1426 | |
| 1427 | If the =:COLUMNS:= is set in a subtree, the columnview dynamic |
| 1428 | block will use its value as the column format. |
| 1429 | |
| 1430 | **** Consider inline tasks when computing a sum |
| 1431 | |
| 1432 | *** Org Dates and Time Stamps |
| 1433 | |
| 1434 | **** Enhanced [[doc::org-sparse-tree][org-sparse-tree]] |
| 1435 | |
| 1436 | =C-c /= can now check for time ranges. |
| 1437 | |
| 1438 | When checking for dates with =C-c /= it is useful to change the |
| 1439 | type of dates that you are interested in. You can now do this |
| 1440 | interactively with =c= after =C-c /= and/or by setting |
| 1441 | [[doc::org-sparse-tree-default-date-type][org-sparse-tree-default-date-type]] to the default value you want. |
| 1442 | |
| 1443 | **** Support for hourly repeat cookies |
| 1444 | |
| 1445 | You can now use |
| 1446 | |
| 1447 | : SCHEDULED: <2012-08-20 lun. 08:00 +1h> |
| 1448 | |
| 1449 | if you want to add an hourly repeater to an entry. |
| 1450 | |
| 1451 | **** =C-u C-u C-c .= inserts a time-stamp with no prompt |
| 1452 | |
| 1453 | **** When (setq [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] 'time), accept days in the prompt |
| 1454 | |
| 1455 | "8am Wed" and "Wed 8am" are now acceptable values when entering a |
| 1456 | date from the prompt. If [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] is set to |
| 1457 | =time=, this will produce the expected prompt indication. |
| 1458 | |
| 1459 | **** New option [[doc::org-datetree-add-timestamp][org-datetree-add-timestamp]] |
| 1460 | |
| 1461 | When set to =non-nil=, datetree entries will also have a |
| 1462 | timestamp. This is useful if you want to see these entries in a |
| 1463 | sparse tree with =C-c /=. |
| 1464 | |
| 1465 | *** Org Capture |
| 1466 | |
| 1467 | **** New command [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]] |
| 1468 | |
| 1469 | M-x [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]] RET will prompt for a string and a capture |
| 1470 | template. The string will be used as an annotation for the |
| 1471 | template. This is useful when capturing in batch mode as it lets |
| 1472 | you define the content of the template without being in Emacs. |
| 1473 | |
| 1474 | **** New option [[doc::org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] |
| 1475 | |
| 1476 | Setting this option allows you to define specific context where |
| 1477 | capture templates should be available from. For example, when |
| 1478 | set to this value |
| 1479 | |
| 1480 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp |
| 1481 | (setq org-capture-templates-contexts |
| 1482 | '(("c" (in-mode . "message-mode")))) |
| 1483 | #+END_SRC |
| 1484 | |
| 1485 | then the =c= capture template will only be available from |
| 1486 | =message-mode= buffers. See the docstring and the manual for |
| 1487 | more details on how to use this. |
| 1488 | |
| 1489 | **** New =%l= template to insert the literal link |
| 1490 | **** New option [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]] |
| 1491 | |
| 1492 | Org used to automatically add a bookmark with capture a note. |
| 1493 | You can now turn this on by setting [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]] to |
| 1494 | =nil=. |
| 1495 | |
| 1496 | **** Expand =%<num>= escape sequences into text entered for <num>'th =%^{PROMPT}= escape |
| 1497 | |
| 1498 | See the manual for more explanations. |
| 1499 | |
| 1500 | **** More control over empty lines |
| 1501 | |
| 1502 | You can use =:empty-lines-before= and =:empty-lines-after= to |
| 1503 | control the insertion of empty lines. Check the manual for more |
| 1504 | explanations. |
| 1505 | |
| 1506 | **** New hook [[doc::org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook][org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook]] |
| 1507 | |
| 1508 | This new hook runs before the finalization process starts. |
| 1509 | |
| 1510 | *** Org Export |
| 1511 | |
| 1512 | **** New functions =orgtbl-to-table.el= and =orgtbl-to-unicode= |
| 1513 | |
| 1514 | =orgtbl-to-table.el= convert the table to a =table.el= table, and |
| 1515 | =orgtbl-to-unicode= will use =ascii-art-to-unicode.el= (when |
| 1516 | available) to print beautiful tables. |
| 1517 | |
| 1518 | **** [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]] now a bit clever about the target format |
| 1519 | |
| 1520 | When you specify a file name like =table.csv=, [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]] |
| 1521 | will now suggest =orgtbl-to-csv= the default method for exporting |
| 1522 | the table. |
| 1523 | |
| 1524 | **** New option [[doc::org-export-date-timestamp-format][org-export-date-timestamp-format]] |
| 1525 | |
| 1526 | The option allows to set a time string format for Org timestamps |
| 1527 | in the #+DATE option. |
| 1528 | |
| 1529 | **** LaTeX: New options for exporting table rules :tstart, :hline and :tend |
| 1530 | |
| 1531 | See [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-hline][org-export-latex-tables-hline]] and [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-tend][org-export-latex-tables-tend]]. |
| 1532 | |
| 1533 | **** LaTeX: You can now set =:hfmt= from =#+ATTR_LaTeX= |
| 1534 | **** Beamer: Add support and keybinding for the =exampleblock= environment |
| 1535 | |
| 1536 | Add support for these languages in [[doc::org-export-language-setup][org-export-language-setup]]. |
| 1537 | More languages are always welcome. |
| 1538 | |
| 1539 | **** Beamer: New option [[doc::org-beamer-inherited-properties][org-beamer-inherited-properties]] |
| 1540 | |
| 1541 | This option allows Beamer export to inherit some properties. |
| 1542 | Thanks to Carsten for implementing this. |
| 1543 | |
| 1544 | **** ODT: Add support for ODT export in org-bbdb.el |
| 1545 | **** ODT: Add support for indented tables (see [[http://orgmode.org/w/?p%3Dorg-mode.git%3Ba%3Dcommit%3Bh%3De9fd33][this commit]] for details) |
| 1546 | **** ODT: Improve the conversion from ODT to other formats |
| 1547 | **** ASCII: Swap the level-1/level-2 characters to underline the headlines |
| 1548 | **** Support for Chinese, simplified Chinese, Russian, Ukrainian and Japanese |
| 1549 | **** HTML: New option [[doc::org-export-html-date-format-string][org-export-html-date-format-string]] |
| 1550 | |
| 1551 | Format string to format the date and time in HTML export. Thanks |
| 1552 | to Sรฉbastien Vauban for this patch. |
| 1553 | |
| 1554 | *** Org Babel |
| 1555 | |
| 1556 | **** New =:results drawer= parameter |
| 1557 | |
| 1558 | =:results drawer= replaces =:results wrap=, which is deprecated but still |
| 1559 | supported. |
| 1560 | |
| 1561 | **** =:results org= now put results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block |
| 1562 | |
| 1563 | =:results org= used to put results in a =#+BEGIN_ORG= block but it now puts |
| 1564 | results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block, with comma-escaped lines. |
| 1565 | |
| 1566 | =#+BEGIN_ORG= blocks are obsolete. |
| 1567 | |
| 1568 | **** Exporting =#+BEGIN_SRC org= blocks exports the code |
| 1569 | |
| 1570 | It used to exports the results of the code. |
| 1571 | |
| 1572 | *** Miscellaneous |
| 1573 | |
| 1574 | **** New menu entry for [[doc::org-refile][org-refile]] |
| 1575 | **** Allow capturing to encrypted entries |
| 1576 | |
| 1577 | If you capture to an encrypted entry, it will be decrypted before |
| 1578 | inserting the template then re-encrypted after finalizing the capture. |
| 1579 | |
| 1580 | **** Inactive timestamps are now handled in tables |
| 1581 | |
| 1582 | Calc can do computation on active time-stamps like <2012-09-29 sat.>. |
| 1583 | Inactive time-stamps in a table's cell are now internally deactivated so |
| 1584 | that Calc formulas can operate on them. |
| 1585 | |
| 1586 | **** [[doc::org-table-number-regexp][org-table-number-regexp]] can now accept comma as decimal mark |
| 1587 | **** Org allows a new property =APPT_WARNTIME= |
| 1588 | |
| 1589 | You can set it with the =W= speedy key or set it manually. When |
| 1590 | set, exporting to iCalendar and [[doc::org-agenda-to-appt][org-agenda-to-appt]] will use the |
| 1591 | value of this property as the number of minutes for the warning |
| 1592 | alarm. |
| 1593 | |
| 1594 | **** New command [[doc::org-inc-effort][org-inc-effort]] |
| 1595 | |
| 1596 | This will increment the effort value. |
| 1597 | |
| 1598 | It is bound to =C-c C-x E= and to =E= as a speedy command. |
| 1599 | |
| 1600 | **** Attach: Add support for creating symbolic links |
| 1601 | |
| 1602 | =org-attach-method= now supports a new method =lns=, allowing to |
| 1603 | attach symbolic links. |
| 1604 | |
| 1605 | **** Archive: you can now archive to a datetree |
| 1606 | |
| 1607 | **** New option [[doc::org-inlinetask-show-first-star][org-inlinetask-show-first-star]] |
| 1608 | |
| 1609 | =Non-nil= means display the first star of an inline task as |
| 1610 | additional marker. When =nil=, the first star is not shown. |
| 1611 | |
| 1612 | **** New option [[doc::org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory][org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory]] |
| 1613 | |
| 1614 | This lets you define the path for the =ltxpng/= directory. |
| 1615 | |
| 1616 | **** You can now use imagemagick instead of dvipng to preview LaTeX fragments |
| 1617 | **** You can now turn off [[doc::orgstruct++-mode][orgstruct++-mode]] safely |
| 1618 | **** =C-u C-c C-c= on list items to add check boxes |
| 1619 | |
| 1620 | =C-u C-c C-c= will add an empty check box on a list item. |
| 1621 | |
| 1622 | When hit from the top of the list, it will add check boxes for |
| 1623 | all top level list items. |
| 1624 | |
| 1625 | **** =org-list-ending-method= and =org-list-end-regexp= are now obsolete |
| 1626 | |
| 1627 | Fall back on using =org-list-end-re= only, which see. |
| 1628 | |
| 1629 | **** org-feed.el now expands =%(sexp)= templates |
| 1630 | **** New option [[doc::org-protocol-data-separator][org-protocol-data-separator]] |
| 1631 | |
| 1632 | **** New option [[doc::org-ditaa-jar-option][org-ditaa-jar-option]] to specify the ditaa jar file |
| 1633 | |
| 1634 | **** New possible value for [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] |
| 1635 | |
| 1636 | When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is set to |
| 1637 | =start-level=, the command will loop over the active region but |
| 1638 | will only act upon entries that are of the same level than the |
| 1639 | first headline in the region. |
| 1640 | |
| 1641 | **** New option [[doc::org-habit-show-all-today][org-habit-show-all-today]] |
| 1642 | |
| 1643 | When set to =t=, show all (even unscheduled) habits on today's |
| 1644 | agenda. |
| 1645 | |
| 1646 | ** Important bug fixes |
| 1647 | |
| 1648 | *** M-TAB on options keywords perform completion correctly again |
| 1649 | |
| 1650 | If you hit =M-TAB= on keywords like =#+TITLE=, Org will try to |
| 1651 | perform completion with meaningful values. |
| 1652 | |
| 1653 | *** Add licenses to javascript embedded and external code snippets |
| 1654 | |
| 1655 | Embedded javascript code produced when exporting an Org file to |
| 1656 | HTML is now licensed under GPLv3 (or later), and the copyright is |
| 1657 | owned by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. |
| 1658 | |
| 1659 | The javascript code for embedding MathJax in the browser mentions |
| 1660 | the MathJax copyright and the Apache 2.0 license. |
| 1661 | |
| 1662 | The javascript code for embedding =org-injo.js= in the browser |
| 1663 | mentions the copyright of Sebastian Rose and the GPLv3 (or later) |
| 1664 | license. |
| 1665 | |
| 1666 | =org-export-html-scripts= is now a variable, so that you can adapt |
| 1667 | the code and the license to your needs. |
| 1668 | |
| 1669 | See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html for |
| 1670 | explanations on why these changes were necessary. |
| 1671 | |
| 1672 | * Version 7.8.11 |
| 1673 | |
| 1674 | ** Incompatible changes |
| 1675 | |
| 1676 | *** Emacs 21 support has been dropped |
| 1677 | |
| 1678 | Do not use Org mode 7.xx with Emacs 21, use [[http://orgmode.org/org-6.36c.zip][version 6.36c]] instead. |
| 1679 | |
| 1680 | *** XEmacs support requires the XEmacs development version |
| 1681 | |
| 1682 | To use Org mode 7.xx with XEmacs, you need to run the developer |
| 1683 | version of XEmacs. We were about to drop XEmacs support entirely, |
| 1684 | but Michael Sperber stepped in and made changes to XEmacs that |
| 1685 | made it easier to keep the support. Thanks to Michael for this |
| 1686 | last-minute save. |
| 1687 | |
| 1688 | *** New keys for TODO sparse trees |
| 1689 | |
| 1690 | The key =C-c C-v= is now reserved for Org Babel action. TODO |
| 1691 | sparse trees can still be made with =C-c / t= (all not-done |
| 1692 | states) and =C-c / T= (specific states). |
| 1693 | |
| 1694 | *** The Agenda =org-agenda-ndays= is now obsolete |
| 1695 | |
| 1696 | The variable =org-agenda-ndays= is obsolete - please use |
| 1697 | =org-agenda-span= instead. |
| 1698 | |
| 1699 | Thanks to Julien Danjou for this. |
| 1700 | |
| 1701 | *** Changes to the intended use of =org-export-latex-classes= |
| 1702 | |
| 1703 | So far this variable has been used to specify the complete header |
| 1704 | of the LaTeX document, including all the =\usepackage= calls |
| 1705 | necessary for the document. This setup makes it difficult to |
| 1706 | maintain the list of packages that Org itself would like to call, |
| 1707 | for example for the special symbol support it needs. |
| 1708 | |
| 1709 | First of all, you can *opt out of this change* in the following |
| 1710 | way: You can say: /I want to have full control over headers, and I |
| 1711 | will take responsibility to include the packages Org needs/. If |
| 1712 | that is what you want, add this to your configuration and skip the |
| 1713 | rest of this section (except maybe for the description of the |
| 1714 | =[EXTRA]= place holder): |
| 1715 | |
| 1716 | #+begin_src emacs-lisp |
| 1717 | (setq org-export-latex-default-packages-alist nil |
| 1718 | org-export-latex-packages-alist nil) |
| 1719 | #+end_src |
| 1720 | |
| 1721 | /Continue to read here if you want to go along with the modified |
| 1722 | setup./ |
| 1723 | |
| 1724 | There are now two variables that should be used to list the LaTeX |
| 1725 | packages that need to be included in all classes. The header |
| 1726 | definition in =org-export-latex-classes= should then not contain |
| 1727 | the corresponding =\usepackage= calls (see below). |
| 1728 | |
| 1729 | The two new variables are: |
| 1730 | |
| 1731 | 1. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist= :: This is the |
| 1732 | variable where Org-mode itself puts the packages it needs. |
| 1733 | Normally you should not change this variable. The only |
| 1734 | reason to change it anyway is when one of these packages |
| 1735 | causes a conflict with another package you want to use. Then |
| 1736 | you can remove that packages and hope that you are not using |
| 1737 | Org-mode functionality that needs it. |
| 1738 | |
| 1739 | 2. =org-export-latex-packages-alist= :: This is the variable where |
| 1740 | you can put the packages that you'd like to use across all |
| 1741 | classes. |
| 1742 | |
| 1743 | The sequence how these customizations will show up in the LaTeX |
| 1744 | document are: |
| 1745 | |
| 1746 | 1. Header from =org-export-latex-classes= |
| 1747 | 2. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist= |
| 1748 | 3. =org-export-latex-packages-alist= |
| 1749 | 4. Buffer-specific things set with =#+LaTeX_HEADER:= |
| 1750 | |
| 1751 | If you want more control about which segment is placed where, or |
| 1752 | if you want, for a specific class, have full control over the |
| 1753 | header and exclude some of the automatic building blocks, you can |
| 1754 | put the following macro-like place holders into the header: |
| 1755 | |
| 1756 | #+begin_example |
| 1757 | [DEFAULT-PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for default packages |
| 1758 | [NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES] do not include any of the default packages |
| 1759 | [PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for packages |
| 1760 | [NO-PACKAGES] do not include the packages |
| 1761 | [EXTRA] the stuff from #+LaTeX_HEADER |
| 1762 | [NO-EXTRA] do not include #+LaTeX_HEADER stuff |
| 1763 | #+end_example |
| 1764 | |
| 1765 | If you have currently customized =org-export-latex-classes=, you |
| 1766 | should revise that customization and remove any package calls that |
| 1767 | are covered by =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. This |
| 1768 | applies to the following packages: |
| 1769 | |
| 1770 | - inputenc |
| 1771 | - fontenc |
| 1772 | - fixltx2e |
| 1773 | - graphicx |
| 1774 | - longtable |
| 1775 | - float |
| 1776 | - wrapfig |
| 1777 | - soul |
| 1778 | - t1enc |
| 1779 | - textcomp |
| 1780 | - marvosym |
| 1781 | - wasysym |
| 1782 | - latexsym |
| 1783 | - amssymb |
| 1784 | - hyperref |
| 1785 | |
| 1786 | If one of these packages creates a conflict with another package |
| 1787 | you are using, you can remove it from |
| 1788 | =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. But then you risk that |
| 1789 | some of the advertised export features of Org will not work |
| 1790 | properly. |
| 1791 | |
| 1792 | You can also consider moving packages that you use in all classes |
| 1793 | to =org-export-latex-packages-alist=. If necessary, put the place |
| 1794 | holders so that the packages get loaded in the right sequence. As |
| 1795 | said above, for backward compatibility, if you omit the place |
| 1796 | holders, all the variables will dump their content at the end of |
| 1797 | the header. |
| 1798 | |
| 1799 | *** The constant =org-html-entities= is obsolete |
| 1800 | |
| 1801 | Its content is now part of the new constant =org-entities=, which |
| 1802 | is defined in the file org-entities.el. =org-html-entities= was |
| 1803 | an internal variable, but it is possible that some users did write |
| 1804 | code using it. |
| 1805 | |
| 1806 | *** =org-bbdb-anniversary-format-alist= has changed |
| 1807 | |
| 1808 | Please check the docstring and update your settings accordingly. |
| 1809 | |
| 1810 | *** Deleted =org-mode-p= |
| 1811 | |
| 1812 | This function has been deleted: please update your code. |
| 1813 | |
| 1814 | ** Important new features |
| 1815 | |
| 1816 | *** New Org to ODT exporter |
| 1817 | |
| 1818 | Jambunathan's Org to ODT exporter is now part of Org. |
| 1819 | |
| 1820 | To use it, it `C-c C-e o' in an Org file. See the documentation |
| 1821 | for more information on how to customize it. |
| 1822 | |
| 1823 | *** org-capture.el is now the default capture system |
| 1824 | |
| 1825 | This replaces the earlier system org-remember. The manual only |
| 1826 | describes org-capture, but for people who prefer to continue to |
| 1827 | use org-remember, we keep a static copy of the former manual |
| 1828 | section [[http://orgmode.org/org-remember.pdf][chapter about remember]]. |
| 1829 | |
| 1830 | The new system has a technically cleaner implementation and more |
| 1831 | possibilities for capturing different types of data. See |
| 1832 | [[http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/26441/focus%3D26441][Carsten's announcement]] for more details. |
| 1833 | |
| 1834 | To switch over to the new system: |
| 1835 | |
| 1836 | 1. Run |
| 1837 | |
| 1838 | : M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET |
| 1839 | |
| 1840 | to get a translated version of your remember templates into the |
| 1841 | new variable =org-capture-templates=. This will "mostly" work, |
| 1842 | but maybe not for all cases. At least it will give you a good |
| 1843 | place to modify your templates. After running this command, |
| 1844 | enter the customize buffer for this variable with |
| 1845 | |
| 1846 | : M-x customize-variable RET org-capture-templates RET |
| 1847 | |
| 1848 | and convince yourself that everything is OK. Then save the |
| 1849 | customization. |
| 1850 | |
| 1851 | 2. Bind the command =org-capture= to a key, similar to what you did |
| 1852 | with org-remember: |
| 1853 | |
| 1854 | : (define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture) |
| 1855 | |
| 1856 | If your fingers prefer =C-c r=, you can also use this key once |
| 1857 | you have decided to move over completely to the new |
| 1858 | implementation. During a test time, there is nothing wrong |
| 1859 | with using both system in parallel. |
| 1860 | |
| 1861 | ** New libraries |
| 1862 | |
| 1863 | *** New Org libraries |
| 1864 | **** org-eshell.el (Konrad Hinsen) |
| 1865 | |
| 1866 | Implement links to eshell buffers. |
| 1867 | |
| 1868 | **** org-special-blocks (Carsten Dominik) |
| 1869 | |
| 1870 | This package generalizes the #+begin_foo and #+end_foo tokens. |
| 1871 | |
| 1872 | To use, put the following in your init file: |
| 1873 | |
| 1874 | #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE |
| 1875 | (require 'org-special-blocks) |
| 1876 | #+END_EXAMPLE |
| 1877 | |
| 1878 | The tokens #+begin_center, #+begin_verse, etc. existed |
| 1879 | previously. This package generalizes them (at least for the |
| 1880 | LaTeX and html exporters). When a #+begin_foo token is |
| 1881 | encountered by the LaTeX exporter, it is expanded |
| 1882 | into \begin{foo}. The text inside the environment is not |
| 1883 | protected, as text inside environments generally is. |
| 1884 | When #+begin_foo is encountered by the html exporter, a div with |
| 1885 | class foo is inserted into the HTML file. It is up to the user |
| 1886 | to add this class to his or her stylesheet if this div is to mean |
| 1887 | anything. |
| 1888 | |
| 1889 | **** org-taskjuggler.el (Christian Egli) |
| 1890 | |
| 1891 | Christian Egli's /org-taskjuggler.el/ module is now part of Org. |
| 1892 | He also wrote a [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler.php][tutorial]] for it. |
| 1893 | |
| 1894 | **** org-ctags.el (Paul Sexton) |
| 1895 | |
| 1896 | Targets like =<<my target>>= can now be found by Emacs' etag |
| 1897 | functionality, and Org-mode links can be used to to link to |
| 1898 | etags, also in non-Org-mode files. For details, see the file |
| 1899 | /org-ctags.el/. |
| 1900 | |
| 1901 | This feature uses a new hook =org-open-link-functions= which will |
| 1902 | call function to do something special with text links. |
| 1903 | |
| 1904 | Thanks to Paul Sexton for this contribution. |
| 1905 | |
| 1906 | **** org-docview.el (Jan Bรถcker) |
| 1907 | |
| 1908 | This new module allows links to various file types using docview, where |
| 1909 | Emacs displays images of document pages. Docview link types can point |
| 1910 | to a specific page in a document, for example to page 131 of the |
| 1911 | Org-mode manual: |
| 1912 | |
| 1913 | : [[docview:~/.elisp/org/doc/org.pdf::131][Org-Mode Manual]] |
| 1914 | |
| 1915 | Thanks to Jan Bรถcker for this contribution. |
| 1916 | |
| 1917 | *** New Babel libraries |
| 1918 | |
| 1919 | - ob-picolisp.el (Thorsten Jolitz) |
| 1920 | - ob-fortran.el (Sergey Litvinov) |
| 1921 | - ob-shen.el (Eric Schulte) |
| 1922 | - ob-maxima.el (Eric S Fraga) |
| 1923 | - ob-java.el (Eric Schulte) |
| 1924 | - ob-lilypond.el (Martyn Jago) |
| 1925 | - ob-awk.el (Eric Schulte) |
| 1926 | |
| 1927 | ** Other new features and various enhancements |
| 1928 | |
| 1929 | *** Hyperlinks |
| 1930 | |
| 1931 | **** Org-Bibtex -- major improvements |
| 1932 | |
| 1933 | Provides support for managing bibtex bibliographical references |
| 1934 | data in headline properties. Each headline corresponds to a |
| 1935 | single reference and the relevant bibliographic meta-data is |
| 1936 | stored in headline properties, leaving the body of the headline |
| 1937 | free to hold notes and comments. Org-bibtex is aware of all |
| 1938 | standard bibtex reference types and fields. |
| 1939 | |
| 1940 | The key new functions are |
| 1941 | |
| 1942 | - org-bibtex-check :: queries the user to flesh out all required |
| 1943 | (and with prefix argument optional) bibtex fields available |
| 1944 | for the specific reference =type= of the current headline. |
| 1945 | |
| 1946 | - org-bibtex-create :: Create a new entry at the given level, |
| 1947 | using org-bibtex-check to flesh out the relevant fields. |
| 1948 | |
| 1949 | - org-bibtex-yank :: Yank a bibtex entry on the kill ring as a |
| 1950 | formatted Org-mode headline into the current buffer |
| 1951 | |
| 1952 | - org-bibtex-export-to-kill-ring :: Export the current headline |
| 1953 | to the kill ring as a formatted bibtex entry. |
| 1954 | |
| 1955 | **** org-gnus.el now allows link creation from messages |
| 1956 | |
| 1957 | You can now create links from messages. This is particularly |
| 1958 | useful when the user wants to stored messages that he sends, for |
| 1959 | later check. Thanks to Ulf Stegemann for the patch. |
| 1960 | |
| 1961 | **** Modified link escaping |
| 1962 | |
| 1963 | David Maus worked on `org-link-escape'. See [[http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/37888][his message]]: |
| 1964 | |
| 1965 | : Percent escaping is used in Org mode to escape certain characters |
| 1966 | : in links that would either break the parser (e.g. square brackets |
| 1967 | : in link target oder description) or are not allowed to appear in |
| 1968 | : a particular link type (e.g. non-ascii characters in a http: |
| 1969 | : link). |
| 1970 | : |
| 1971 | : With this change in place Org will apply percent escaping and |
| 1972 | : unescaping more consistently especially for non-ascii characters. |
| 1973 | : Additionally some of the outstanding bugs or glitches concerning |
| 1974 | : percent escaped links are solved. |
| 1975 | |
| 1976 | Thanks a lot to David for this work. |
| 1977 | |
| 1978 | **** Make =org-store-link= point to directory in a dired buffer |
| 1979 | |
| 1980 | When, in a dired buffer, the cursor is not in a line listing a |
| 1981 | file, `org-store-link' will store a link to the directory. |
| 1982 | |
| 1983 | Patch by Stephen Eglen. |
| 1984 | |
| 1985 | **** Allow regexps in =org-file-apps= to capture link parameters |
| 1986 | |
| 1987 | The way extension regexps in =org-file-apps= are handled has |
| 1988 | changed. Instead of matching against the file name, the regexps |
| 1989 | are now matched against the whole link, and you can use grouping |
| 1990 | to extract link parameters which you can then use in a command |
| 1991 | string to be executed. |
| 1992 | |
| 1993 | For example, to allow linking to PDF files using the syntax |
| 1994 | =file:/doc.pdf::<page number>=, you can add the following entry |
| 1995 | to org-file-apps: |
| 1996 | |
| 1997 | #+begin_example |
| 1998 | Extension: \.pdf::\([0-9]+\)\' |
| 1999 | Command: evince "%s" -p %1 |
| 2000 | #+end_example |
| 2001 | |
| 2002 | Thanks to Jan Bรถcker for a patch to this effect. |
| 2003 | |
| 2004 | *** Dates and time |
| 2005 | |
| 2006 | **** Allow relative time when scheduling/adding a deadline |
| 2007 | |
| 2008 | You can now use relative duration strings like "-2d" or "++3w" |
| 2009 | when calling =org-schedule= or =org-deadline=: it will schedule |
| 2010 | (or set the deadline for) the item respectively two days before |
| 2011 | today and three weeks after the current timestamp, if any. |
| 2012 | |
| 2013 | You can use this programmatically: =(org-schedule nil "+2d")= |
| 2014 | will work on the current entry. |
| 2015 | |
| 2016 | You can also use this while (bulk-)rescheduling and |
| 2017 | (bulk-)resetting the deadline of (several) items from the agenda. |
| 2018 | |
| 2019 | Thanks to Memnon Anon for a heads up about this! |
| 2020 | |
| 2021 | **** American-style dates are now understood by =org-read-date= |
| 2022 | |
| 2023 | So when you are prompted for a date, you can now answer like this |
| 2024 | |
| 2025 | #+begin_example |
| 2026 | 2/5/3 --> 2003-02-05 |
| 2027 | 2/5 --> <CURRENT-YEAR>-02-05 |
| 2028 | #+end_example |
| 2029 | |
| 2030 | *** Agenda |
| 2031 | |
| 2032 | **** =org-agenda-custom-commands= has a default value |
| 2033 | |
| 2034 | This option used to be `nil' by default. This now has a default |
| 2035 | value, displaying an agenda and all TODOs. See the docstring for |
| 2036 | details. Thanks to Carsten for this. |
| 2037 | |
| 2038 | **** Improved filtering through =org-agenda-to-appt= |
| 2039 | |
| 2040 | The new function allows the user to refine the scope of entries |
| 2041 | to pass to =org-agenda-get-day-entries= and allows to filter out |
| 2042 | entries using a function. |
| 2043 | |
| 2044 | Thanks to Peter Mรผnster for raising a related issue and to |
| 2045 | Tassilo Horn for this idea. Also thanks to Peter Mรผnster for |
| 2046 | [[git:68ffb7a7][fixing a small bug]] in the final implementation. |
| 2047 | |
| 2048 | **** Allow ap/pm times in agenda time grid |
| 2049 | |
| 2050 | Times in the agenda can now be displayed in am/pm format. See |
| 2051 | the new variable =org-agenda-timegrid-use-ampm=. Thanks to |
| 2052 | C. A. Webber for a patch to this effect. |
| 2053 | |
| 2054 | **** Agenda: Added a bulk "scattering" command |
| 2055 | |
| 2056 | =B S= in the agenda buffer will cause tasks to be rescheduled a |
| 2057 | random number of days into the future, with 7 as the default. |
| 2058 | This is useful if you've got a ton of tasks scheduled for today, |
| 2059 | you realize you'll never deal with them all, and you just want |
| 2060 | them to be distributed across the next N days. When called with |
| 2061 | a prefix arg, rescheduling will avoid weekend days. |
| 2062 | |
| 2063 | Thanks to John Wiegley for this. |
| 2064 | |
| 2065 | *** Exporting |
| 2066 | |
| 2067 | **** Simplification of org-export-html-preamble/postamble |
| 2068 | |
| 2069 | When set to `t', export the preamble/postamble as usual, honoring |
| 2070 | the =org-export-email/author/creator-info= variables. |
| 2071 | |
| 2072 | When set to a formatting string, insert this string. See the |
| 2073 | docstring of these variable for details about available |
| 2074 | %-sequences. |
| 2075 | |
| 2076 | You can set =:html-preamble= in publishing project in the same |
| 2077 | way: `t' means to honor =:email/creator/author-info=, and a |
| 2078 | formatting string will insert a string. |
| 2079 | |
| 2080 | **** New exporters to Latin-1 and UTF-8 |
| 2081 | |
| 2082 | While Ulf Stegemann was going through the entities list to |
| 2083 | improve the LaTeX export, he had the great idea to provide |
| 2084 | representations for many of the entities in Latin-1, and for all |
| 2085 | of them in UTF-8. This means that we can now export files rich |
| 2086 | in special symbols to Latin-1 and to UTF-8 files. These new |
| 2087 | exporters can be reached with the commands =C-c C-e n= and =C-c |
| 2088 | C-e u=, respectively. |
| 2089 | |
| 2090 | When there is no representation for a given symbol in the |
| 2091 | targeted coding system, you can choose to keep the TeX-macro-like |
| 2092 | representation, or to get an "explanatory" representation. For |
| 2093 | example, =\simeq= could be represented as "[approx. equal to]". |
| 2094 | Please use the variable =org-entities-ascii-explanatory= to state |
| 2095 | your preference. |
| 2096 | |
| 2097 | **** HTML export: Add class to outline containers using property |
| 2098 | |
| 2099 | The =HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS= property can now be used to add a |
| 2100 | class name to the outline container of a node in HTML export. |
| 2101 | |
| 2102 | **** Throw an error when creating an image from a LaTeX snippet fails |
| 2103 | |
| 2104 | This behavior can be configured with the new option variable |
| 2105 | =org-format-latex-signal-error=. |
| 2106 | |
| 2107 | **** Support for creating BEAMER presentations from Org-mode documents |
| 2108 | |
| 2109 | Org-mode documents or subtrees can now be converted directly in |
| 2110 | to BEAMER presentation. Turning a tree into a simple |
| 2111 | presentations is straight forward, and there is also quite some |
| 2112 | support to make richer presentations as well. See the [[http://orgmode.org/manual/Beamer-class-export.html#Beamer-class-export][BEAMER |
| 2113 | section]] in the manual for more details. |
| 2114 | |
| 2115 | Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the discussion about |
| 2116 | BEAMER support and how it should work. This was a great example |
| 2117 | for how this community can achieve a much better result than any |
| 2118 | individual could. |
| 2119 | |
| 2120 | *** Refiling |
| 2121 | |
| 2122 | **** Refile targets can now be cached |
| 2123 | |
| 2124 | You can turn on caching of refile targets by setting the variable |
| 2125 | =org-refile-use-cache=. This should speed up refiling if you |
| 2126 | have many eligible targets in many files. If you need to update |
| 2127 | the cache because Org misses a newly created entry or still |
| 2128 | offers a deleted one, press =C-0 C-c C-w=. |
| 2129 | |
| 2130 | **** New logging support for refiling |
| 2131 | |
| 2132 | Whenever you refile an item, a time stamp and even a note can be |
| 2133 | added to this entry. For details, see the new option |
| 2134 | =org-log-refile=. |
| 2135 | |
| 2136 | Thanks to Charles Cave for this idea. |
| 2137 | |
| 2138 | *** Completion |
| 2139 | |
| 2140 | **** In-buffer completion is now done using John Wiegley's pcomplete.el |
| 2141 | |
| 2142 | Thanks to John Wiegley for much of this code. |
| 2143 | |
| 2144 | *** Tables |
| 2145 | |
| 2146 | **** New command =org-table-transpose-table-at-point= |
| 2147 | |
| 2148 | See the docstring. This hack from Juan Pechiar is now part of |
| 2149 | Org's core. Thanks to Juan! |
| 2150 | |
| 2151 | **** Display field's coordinates when editing it with =C-c `= |
| 2152 | |
| 2153 | When editing a field with =C-c `=, the field's coordinate will |
| 2154 | the displayed in the buffer. |
| 2155 | |
| 2156 | Thanks to Michael Brand for a patch to this effect. |
| 2157 | |
| 2158 | **** Spreadsheet computation of durations and time values |
| 2159 | |
| 2160 | If you want to compute time values use the =T= flag, either in |
| 2161 | Calc formulas or Elisp formulas: |
| 2162 | |
| 2163 | | Task 1 | Task 2 | Total | |
| 2164 | |--------+--------+---------| |
| 2165 | | 35:00 | 35:00 | 1:10:00 | |
| 2166 | #+TBLFM: @2$3=$1+$2;T |
| 2167 | |
| 2168 | Values must be of the form =[HH:]MM:SS=, where hours are |
| 2169 | optional. |
| 2170 | |
| 2171 | Thanks to Martin Halder, Eric Schulte and Carsten for code and |
| 2172 | feedback on this. |
| 2173 | |
| 2174 | **** Implement formulas applying to field ranges |
| 2175 | |
| 2176 | Carsten implemented this field-ranges formulas. |
| 2177 | |
| 2178 | : A frequently requested feature for tables has been to be able to define |
| 2179 | : row formulas in a way similar to column formulas. The patch below allows |
| 2180 | : things like |
| 2181 | : |
| 2182 | : @3= |
| 2183 | : @2$2..@5$7= |
| 2184 | : @I$2..@II$4= |
| 2185 | : |
| 2186 | : as the left hand side for table formulas in order to write a formula that |
| 2187 | : is valid for an entire column or for a rectangular section in a |
| 2188 | : table. |
| 2189 | |
| 2190 | Thanks a lot to Carsten for this. |
| 2191 | |
| 2192 | **** Sending radio tables from org buffers is now allowed |
| 2193 | |
| 2194 | Org radio tables can no also be sent inside Org buffers. Also, |
| 2195 | there is a new hook which get called after a table has been sent. |
| 2196 | |
| 2197 | Thanks to Seweryn Kokot. |
| 2198 | |
| 2199 | *** Lists |
| 2200 | |
| 2201 | **** Improved handling of lists |
| 2202 | |
| 2203 | Nicolas Goaziou extended and improved the way Org handles lists. |
| 2204 | |
| 2205 | 1. Indentation of text determines again end of items in |
| 2206 | lists. So, some text less indented than the previous item |
| 2207 | doesn't close the whole list anymore, only all items more |
| 2208 | indented than it. |
| 2209 | |
| 2210 | 2. Alphabetical bullets are implemented, through the use of the |
| 2211 | variable `org-alphabetical-lists'. This also adds alphabetical |
| 2212 | counters like [@c] or [@W]. |
| 2213 | |
| 2214 | 3. Lists can now safely contain drawers, inline tasks, or various |
| 2215 | blocks, themselves containing lists. Two variables are |
| 2216 | controlling this: `org-list-forbidden-blocks', and |
| 2217 | `org-list-export-context'. |
| 2218 | |
| 2219 | 4. Improve `newline-and-indent' (C-j): used in an item, it will |
| 2220 | keep text from moving at column 0. This allows to split text |
| 2221 | and make paragraphs and still not break the list. |
| 2222 | |
| 2223 | 5. Improve `org-toggle-item' (C-c -): used on a region with |
| 2224 | standard text, it will change the region into one item. With a |
| 2225 | prefix argument, it will fallback to the previous behavior and |
| 2226 | make every line in region an item. It permits to easily |
| 2227 | integrate paragraphs inside a list. |
| 2228 | |
| 2229 | 6. `fill-paragraph' (M-q) now understands lists. It can freely be |
| 2230 | used inside items, or on text just after a list, even with no |
| 2231 | blank line around, without breaking list structure. |
| 2232 | |
| 2233 | Thanks a lot to Nicolas for all this! |
| 2234 | |
| 2235 | *** Inline display of linked images |
| 2236 | |
| 2237 | Images can now be displayed inline. The key C-c C-x C-v does |
| 2238 | toggle the display of such images. Note that only image links |
| 2239 | that have no description part will be inlined. |
| 2240 | |
| 2241 | *** Implement offsets for ordered lists |
| 2242 | |
| 2243 | If you want to start an ordered plain list with a number different |
| 2244 | from 1, you can now do it like this: |
| 2245 | |
| 2246 | : 1. [@start:12] will star a lit a number 12 |
| 2247 | |
| 2248 | *** Babel: code block body expansion for table and preview |
| 2249 | |
| 2250 | In org-babel, code is "expanded" prior to evaluation. I.e. the |
| 2251 | code that is actually evaluated comprises the code block contents, |
| 2252 | augmented with the extra code which assigns the referenced data to |
| 2253 | variables. It is now possible to preview expanded contents, and |
| 2254 | also to expand code during during tangling. This expansion takes |
| 2255 | into account all header arguments, and variables. |
| 2256 | |
| 2257 | A new keybinding `C-c M-b p' bound to `org-babel-expand-src-block' |
| 2258 | can be used from inside of a source code block to preview its |
| 2259 | expanded contents (which can be very useful for debugging). |
| 2260 | tangling |
| 2261 | |
| 2262 | The expanded body can now be tangled, this includes variable |
| 2263 | values which may be the results of other source-code blocks, or |
| 2264 | stored in headline properties or tables. One possible use for this |
| 2265 | is to allow those using org-babel for their emacs initialization |
| 2266 | to store values (e.g. usernames, passwords, etc...) in headline |
| 2267 | properties or in tables. |
| 2268 | |
| 2269 | Org-babel now supports three new header arguments, and new default |
| 2270 | behavior for handling horizontal lines in tables (hlines), column |
| 2271 | names, and rownames across all languages. |
| 2272 | |
| 2273 | *** Editing Convenience and Appearance |
| 2274 | |
| 2275 | **** New command =org-copy-visible= (=C-c C-x v=) |
| 2276 | |
| 2277 | This command will copy the visible text in the region into the |
| 2278 | kill ring. Thanks to Florian Beck for this function and to |
| 2279 | Carsten for adding it to org.el and documenting it! |
| 2280 | |
| 2281 | **** Make it possible to protect hidden subtrees from being killed by =C-k= |
| 2282 | |
| 2283 | See the new variable =org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree=. This was a |
| 2284 | request by Scott Otterson. |
| 2285 | |
| 2286 | **** Implement pretty display of entities, sub-, and superscripts. |
| 2287 | |
| 2288 | The command =C-c C-x \= toggles the display of Org's special |
| 2289 | entities like =\alpha= as pretty unicode characters. Also, sub |
| 2290 | and superscripts are displayed in a pretty way (raised/lower |
| 2291 | display, in a smaller font). If you want to exclude sub- and |
| 2292 | superscripts, see the variable |
| 2293 | =org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts=. |
| 2294 | |
| 2295 | Thanks to Eric Schulte and Ulf Stegeman for making this possible. |
| 2296 | |
| 2297 | **** New faces for title, date, author and email address lines |
| 2298 | |
| 2299 | The keywords in these lines are now dimmed out, and the title is |
| 2300 | displayed in a larger font, and a special font is also used for |
| 2301 | author, date, and email information. This is implemented by the |
| 2302 | following new faces: |
| 2303 | |
| 2304 | =org-document-title= |
| 2305 | =org-document-info= |
| 2306 | =org-document-info-keyword= |
| 2307 | |
| 2308 | In addition, the variable =org-hidden-keywords= can be used to |
| 2309 | make the corresponding keywords disappear. |
| 2310 | |
| 2311 | Thanks to Dan Davison for this feature. |
| 2312 | |
| 2313 | **** Simpler way to specify faces for tags and todo keywords |
| 2314 | |
| 2315 | The variables =org-todo-keyword-faces=, =org-tag-faces=, and |
| 2316 | =org-priority-faces= now accept simple color names as |
| 2317 | specifications. The colors will be used as either foreground or |
| 2318 | background color for the corresponding keyword. See also the |
| 2319 | variable =org-faces-easy-properties=, which governs which face |
| 2320 | property is affected by this setting. |
| 2321 | |
| 2322 | This is really a great simplification for setting keyword faces. |
| 2323 | The change is based on an idea and patch by Ryan Thompson. |
| 2324 | |
| 2325 | **** <N> in tables now means fixed width, not maximum width |
| 2326 | |
| 2327 | Requested by Michael Brand. |
| 2328 | |
| 2329 | **** Better level cycling function |
| 2330 | |
| 2331 | =TAB= in an empty headline cycles the level of that headline |
| 2332 | through likely states. Ryan Thompson implemented an improved |
| 2333 | version of this function, which does not depend upon when exactly |
| 2334 | this command is used. Thanks to Ryan for this improvement. |
| 2335 | |
| 2336 | **** Adaptive filling |
| 2337 | |
| 2338 | For paragraph text, =org-adaptive-fill-function= did not handle |
| 2339 | the base case of regular text which needed to be filled. This is |
| 2340 | now fixed. Among other things, it allows email-style ">" |
| 2341 | comments to be filled correctly. |
| 2342 | |
| 2343 | Thanks to Dan Hackney for this patch. |
| 2344 | |
| 2345 | **** `org-reveal' (=C-c C-r=) also decrypts encrypted entries (org-crypt.el) |
| 2346 | |
| 2347 | Thanks to Richard Riley for triggering this change. |
| 2348 | |
| 2349 | **** Better automatic letter selection for TODO keywords |
| 2350 | |
| 2351 | When all first letters of keywords have been used, Org now |
| 2352 | assigns more meaningful characters based on the keywords. |
| 2353 | |
| 2354 | Thanks to Mikael Fornius for this patch. |
| 2355 | |
| 2356 | *** Clocking |
| 2357 | |
| 2358 | **** Clock: Allow synchronous update of timestamps in CLOCK log |
| 2359 | |
| 2360 | Using =S-M-<up/down>= on CLOCK log timestamps will |
| 2361 | increase/decrease the two timestamps on this line so that |
| 2362 | duration will keep the same. Note that duration can still be |
| 2363 | slightly modified in case a timestamp needs some rounding. |
| 2364 | |
| 2365 | Thanks to Rainer Stengele for this idea. |
| 2366 | |
| 2367 | **** Localized clock tables |
| 2368 | |
| 2369 | Clock tables now support a new new =:lang= parameter, allowing |
| 2370 | the user to customize the localization of the table headers. See |
| 2371 | the variable =org-clock-clocktable-language-setup= which controls |
| 2372 | available translated strings. |
| 2373 | |
| 2374 | **** Show clock overruns in mode line |
| 2375 | |
| 2376 | When clocking an item with a planned effort, overrunning the |
| 2377 | planned time is now made visible in the mode line, for example |
| 2378 | using the new face =org-mode-line-clock-overrun=, or by adding an |
| 2379 | extra string given by =org-task-overrun-text=. |
| 2380 | |
| 2381 | Thanks to Richard Riley for a patch to this effect. |
| 2382 | |
| 2383 | **** Clock reports can now include the running, incomplete clock |
| 2384 | |
| 2385 | If you have a clock running, and the entry being clocked falls |
| 2386 | into the scope when creating a clock table, the time so far spent |
| 2387 | can be added to the total. This behavior depends on the setting |
| 2388 | of =org-clock-report-include-clocking-task=. The default is |
| 2389 | =nil=. |
| 2390 | |
| 2391 | Thanks to Bernt Hansen for this useful addition. |
| 2392 | |
| 2393 | *** Misc |
| 2394 | |
| 2395 | **** Improvements with inline tasks and indentation |
| 2396 | |
| 2397 | There is now a configurable way on how to export inline tasks. |
| 2398 | See the new variable =org-inlinetask-export-templates=. |
| 2399 | |
| 2400 | Thanks to Nicolas Goaziou for coding these changes. |
| 2401 | |
| 2402 | **** A property value of "nil" now means to unset a property |
| 2403 | |
| 2404 | This can be useful in particular with property inheritance, if |
| 2405 | some upper level has the property, and some grandchild of it |
| 2406 | would like to have the default settings (i.e. not overruled by a |
| 2407 | property) back. |
| 2408 | |
| 2409 | Thanks to Robert Goldman and Bernt Hansen for suggesting this |
| 2410 | change. |
| 2411 | |
| 2412 | **** New helper functions in org-table.el |
| 2413 | |
| 2414 | There are new functions to access and write to a specific table field. |
| 2415 | This is for hackers, and maybe for the org-babel people. |
| 2416 | |
| 2417 | #+begin_example |
| 2418 | org-table-get |
| 2419 | org-table-put |
| 2420 | org-table-current-line |
| 2421 | org-table-goto-line |
| 2422 | #+end_example |
| 2423 | |
| 2424 | **** Archiving: Allow to reverse order in target node |
| 2425 | |
| 2426 | The new option =org-archive-reversed-order= allows to have |
| 2427 | archived entries inserted in a last-on-top fashion in the target |
| 2428 | node. |
| 2429 | |
| 2430 | This was requested by Tom. |
| 2431 | |
| 2432 | **** Org-reveal: Double prefix arg shows the entire subtree of the parent |
| 2433 | |
| 2434 | This can help to get out of an inconsistent state produced for |
| 2435 | example by viewing from the agenda. |
| 2436 | |
| 2437 | This was a request by Matt Lundin. |
