* Version 8.3

|
|
|
** Incompatible changes
|
|
|
|
*** Properties drawers syntax changes
|
|
|
|
Properties drawers are now required to be located right after a
|
|
headline and its planning line, when applicable.
|
|
|
|
It will break some documents as TODO states changes were sometimes
|
|
logged before the property drawer.
|
|
|
|
The following function will repair them:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(defun org-repair-property-drawers ()
|
|
"Fix properties drawers in current buffer.
|
|
Ignore non Org buffers."
|
|
(when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
|
|
(org-with-wide-buffer
|
|
(goto-char (point-min))
|
|
(let ((case-fold-search t)
|
|
(inline-re (and (featurep 'org-inlinetask)
|
|
(concat (org-inlinetask-outline-regexp)
|
|
"END[ \t]*$"))))
|
|
(org-map-entries
|
|
(lambda ()
|
|
(unless (and inline-re (org-looking-at-p inline-re))
|
|
(save-excursion
|
|
(let ((end (save-excursion (outline-next-heading) (point))))
|
|
(forward-line)
|
|
(when (org-looking-at-p org-planning-line-re) (forward-line))
|
|
(when (and (< (point) end)
|
|
(not (org-looking-at-p org-property-drawer-re))
|
|
(save-excursion
|
|
(and (re-search-forward org-property-drawer-re end t)
|
|
(eq (org-element-type
|
|
(save-match-data (org-element-at-point)))
|
|
'drawer))))
|
|
(insert (delete-and-extract-region
|
|
(match-beginning 0)
|
|
(min (1+ (match-end 0)) end)))
|
|
(unless (bolp) (insert "\n"))))))))))))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
*** Using "COMMENT" is now equivalent to commenting with "#"
|
|
|
|
If you used "COMMENT" in headlines to prevent a subtree from being
|
|
exported, you can still do it but all information within the subtree
|
|
is now commented out, i.e. no #+OPTIONS line will be parsed or taken
|
|
into account when exporting.
|
|
|
|
If you want to exclude a headline from export while using its contents
|
|
for setting options, use =:noexport:= (see =org-export-exclude-tags=.)
|
|
|
|
*** =#+CATEGORY= keywords no longer apply partially to document
|
|
|
|
It was possible to use several such keywords and have them apply to
|
|
the text below until the next one, but strongly deprecated since Org
|
|
5.14 (2008).
|
|
|
|
=#+CATEGORY= keywords are now global to the document. You can use node
|
|
properties to set category for a subtree, e.g.,
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
|
,* Headline
|
|
:PROPERTIES:
|
|
:CATEGORY: some category
|
|
:END:
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
*** New variable to control visibility when revealing a location
|
|
|
|
~org-show-following-heading~, ~org-show-siblings~, ~org-show-entry-below~
|
|
and ~org-show-hierarchy-above~ no longer exist. Instead, visibility is
|
|
controlled through a single variable: ~org-show-context-detail~, which
|
|
see.
|
|
|
|
*** Replace disputed keys again when reading a date
|
|
|
|
~org-replace-disputed-keys~ has been ignored when reading date since
|
|
version 8.1, but the former behavior is restored again.
|
|
|
|
Keybinding for reading date can be customized with a new variable
|
|
~org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map~.
|
|
|
|
*** No default title is provided when =TITLE= keyword is missing
|
|
|
|
Skipping =TITLE= keyword no longer provides the current file name, or
|
|
buffer name, as the title. Instead, simply ignore the title.
|
|
|
|
*** Default bindings of =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= changed
|
|
|
|
The key sequences =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= are now bound to
|
|
~org-next-visible-heading~ and ~org-previous-visible-heading~ respectively,
|
|
rather than the =outline-mode= versions of these functions. The Org
|
|
version of these functions skips over inline tasks (and even-level
|
|
headlines when ~org-odd-levels-only~ is set).
|
|
|
|
*** ~org-element-context~ no longer return objects in keywords
|
|
|
|
~org-element-context~ used to return objects on some keywords, i.e.,
|
|
=TITLE=, =DATE= and =AUTHOR=. It now returns only the keyword.
|
|
|
|
*** ~org-timer-default-timer~ type changed from number to string
|
|
|
|
If you have, in your configuration, something like =(setq
|
|
org-timer-default-timer 10)= replace it with =(setq
|
|
org-timer-default-timer "10")=.
|
|
|
|
*** Functions signature changes
|
|
|
|
The following functions require an additional argument. See their
|
|
docstring for more information.
|
|
|
|
- ~org-export-collect-footnote-definitions~
|
|
- ~org-html-format-headline-function~
|
|
- ~org-html-format-inlinetask-function~
|
|
- ~org-latex-format-headline-function~
|
|
- ~org-latex-format-inlinetask-function~
|
|
- ~org-link-search~
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
*** Behavior of ~org-return~ changed
|
|
|
|
If point is before or after the headline title, insert a new line
|
|
without changing the headline.
|
|
|
|
*** Hierarchies of tags
|
|
The functionality of nesting tags in hierarchies is added to org-mode.
|
|
This is the generalization of what was previously called "Tag groups"
|
|
in the manual. That term is now changed to "Tag hierarchy".
|
|
|
|
The following in-buffer definition:
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
|
,#+TAGS: [ Group : SubOne SubTwo ]
|
|
,#+TAGS: [ SubOne : SubOne1 SubOne2 ]
|
|
,#+TAGS: [ SubTwo : SubTwo1 SubTwo2 ]
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
Should be seen as the following tree of tags:
|
|
- Group
|
|
- SubOne
|
|
- SubOne1
|
|
- SubOne2
|
|
- SubTwo
|
|
- SubTwo1
|
|
- SubTwo2
|
|
|
|
Searching for "Group" should return all tags defined above. Filtering
|
|
on SubOne filters also it's sub-tags. Etc.
|
|
|
|
There is no limit on the depth for the tag hierarchy.
|
|
|
|
*** Additional syntax for non-unique grouptags
|
|
Additional syntax is defined for grouptags if the tags in the group
|
|
don't have to be distinct on a heading.
|
|
|
|
Grouptags had to previously be defined with { }. This syntax is
|
|
already used for exclusive tags and Grouptags need their own,
|
|
non-exclusive syntax. This behaviour is achieved with [ ]. Note: {
|
|
} can still be used also for Grouptags but then only one of the
|
|
given tags can be used on the headline at the same time. Example:
|
|
|
|
[ group : sub1 sub2 ]
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC org
|
|
,* Test :sub1:sub2:
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
This is a more general case than the already existing syntax for
|
|
grouptags; { }.
|
|
|
|
*** Define regular expression patterns as tags
|
|
Tags can be defined as grouptags with regular expressions as
|
|
"sub-tags".
|
|
|
|
The regular expressions in the group must be marked up within { }.
|
|
Example use:
|
|
|
|
: #+TAGS: [ Project : {P@.+} ]
|
|
|
|
Searching for the tag Project will now list all tags also including
|
|
regular expression matches for P@.+. Good for example if tags for a
|
|
certain project is tagged with a common project-identifier,
|
|
i.e. P@2014_OrgTags.
|
|
|
|
*** Filtering in the agenda on grouptags (Tag hierarchies)
|
|
Filtering in the agenda on grouptags filter all of the related tags.
|
|
Exception if filter is applied with a (double) prefix-argument.
|
|
|
|
Filtering in the agenda on subcategories does not filter the "above"
|
|
levels anymore.
|
|
|
|
If a grouptag contains a regular expression the regular expression
|
|
is also used as a filter.
|
|
|
|
*** Minor refactoring of ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~
|
|
Now uses the argument arg and optional argument exclude instead of
|
|
strip and narrow. ARG because the argument has multiple purposes and
|
|
makes more sense than strip now. The term narrowing is changed to
|
|
exclude.
|
|
|
|
The main purpose is for the function to make more logical sense when
|
|
filtering on tags now when tags can be structured in hierarchies.
|
|
|
|
*** Babel: support for sed scripts
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Bjarte Johansen for this feature.
|
|
|
|
*** Babel: support for Processing language
|
|
|
|
New ob-processing.el library.
|
|
|
|
This library implements necessary functions for implementing editing
|
|
of Processing code blocks, viewing the resulting sketches in an
|
|
external viewer, and HTML export of the sketches.
|
|
|
|
Check the documentation for more.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Jarmo Hurri for this feature.
|
|
|
|
*** New behaviour for `org-toggle-latex-fragment'
|
|
The new behaviour is the following:
|
|
|
|
- With a double prefix argument or with a single prefix argument
|
|
when point is before the first headline, toggle overlays in the
|
|
whole buffer;
|
|
|
|
- With a single prefix argument, toggle overlays in the current
|
|
subtree;
|
|
|
|
- On latex code, toggle overlay at point;
|
|
|
|
- Otherwise, toggle overlays in the current section.
|
|
|
|
*** Additional markup with =#+INCLUDE= keyword
|
|
|
|
The content of the included file can now be optionally marked up, for
|
|
instance as HTML. See the documentation for details.
|
|
|
|
*** File links with =#+INCLUDE= keyword
|
|
|
|
Objects can be extracted via =#+INCLUDE= using file links. It is
|
|
possible to include only the contents of the object. See manual for
|
|
more information.
|
|
|
|
*** Drawers do not need anymore to be referenced in =#+DRAWERS=
|
|
|
|
One can use a drawer without listing it in the =#+DRAWERS= keyword,
|
|
which is now obsolete. As a consequence, this change also deprecates
|
|
~org-drawers~ variable.
|
|
|
|
*** ~org-edit-special~ can edit export blocks
|
|
|
|
Using C-c ' on an export block now opens a sub-editing buffer. Major
|
|
mode in that buffer is determined by export backend name (e.g.,
|
|
"latex" \to "latex-mode"). You can define exceptions to this rule by
|
|
configuring ~org-src-lang-modes~, which see.
|
|
|
|
*** Additional =:hline= processing to ob-shell
|
|
|
|
If the argument =:hlines yes= is present in a babel call, an optional
|
|
argument =:hlines-string= can be used to define a string to use as a
|
|
representation for the lisp symbol ='hline= in the shell program. The
|
|
default is =hline=.
|
|
|
|
*** Markdown export supports switches in source blocks
|
|
|
|
For example, it is now possible to number lines using the =-n= switch
|
|
in a source block.
|
|
|
|
*** New option in ASCII export
|
|
|
|
Plain lists can have an extra margin by setting
|
|
~org-ascii-list-margin~ variable to an appopriate integer.
|
|
|
|
*** New blocks in ASCII export
|
|
|
|
ASCII export now supports =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYRIGHT= and
|
|
=#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYLEFT= blocks. See documentation for details.
|
|
|
|
*** More back-end specific publishing options
|
|
|
|
The number of publishing options specific to each back-end has been
|
|
increased. See manual for details.
|
|
|
|
*** Export inline source blocks
|
|
|
|
Inline source code was used to be removed upon exporting. They are
|
|
now handled as standard code blocks, i.e., the source code can appear
|
|
in the output, depending on the parameters.
|
|
|
|
*** Extend ~org-export-first-sibling-p~ and ~org-export-last-sibling-p~
|
|
|
|
These functions now support any element or object, not only headlines.
|
|
|
|
*** New function: ~org-export-table-row-in-header-p~
|
|
|
|
*** New function: ~org-export-get-reference~
|
|
|
|
*** New function: ~org-element-lineage~
|
|
|
|
This function deprecates ~org-export-get-genealogy~. It also provides
|
|
more features. See docstring for details.
|
|
|
|
*** New function: ~org-element-copy~
|
|
|
|
*** New filter: ~org-export-filter-body-functions~
|
|
|
|
Functions in this filter are applied on the body of the exported
|
|
document, befor wrapping it within the template.
|
|
|
|
*** New :environment parameter when exporting example blocks to LaTeX
|
|
|
|
: #+ATTR_LATEX: :environment myverbatim
|
|
: #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
|
|
: This sentence is false.
|
|
: #+END_EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
will be exported using =@samp(myverbatim)= instead of =@samp(verbatim)=.
|
|
|
|
*** Various improvements on radio tables
|
|
|
|
Radio tables feature now relies on Org's export framework ("ox.el").
|
|
~:no-escape~ parameter no longer exists, but additional global
|
|
parameters are now supported: ~:raw~, ~:backend~. Moreover, there are
|
|
new parameters specific to some pre-defined translators, e.g.,
|
|
~:environment~ and ~:booktabs~ for ~orgtbl-to-latex~. See translators
|
|
docstrings (including ~orgtbl-to-generic~) for details.
|
|
|
|
*** Non-floating minted listings in Latex export
|
|
|
|
It is not possible to specify =#+attr_latex: :float nil= in conjunction with
|
|
source blocks exported by the minted package.
|
|
|
|
*** Field formulas can now create columns as needed
|
|
|
|
Previously, evaluating formulas that referenced out-of-bounds columns
|
|
would throw an error. A new variable
|
|
~org-table-formula-create-columns~ was added to adjust this
|
|
behavior. It is now possible to silently add new columns, to do so
|
|
with a warning or to explicitly ask the user each time.
|
|
|
|
*** ASCII plot
|
|
|
|
Ability to plot values in a column through ASCII-art bars. See manual
|
|
for details.
|
|
|
|
*** New hook: ~org-archive-hook~
|
|
|
|
This hook is called after successfully archiving a subtree, with point
|
|
on the original subtree, not yet deleted.
|
|
|
|
*** New option: ~org-attach-archive-delete~
|
|
|
|
When non-nil, attachments from archived subtrees are removed.
|
|
|
|
*** New option: ~org-latex-caption-above~
|
|
|
|
This variable generalizes ~org-latex-table-caption-above~, which is
|
|
now deprecated. In addition to tables, it applies to source blocks,
|
|
special blocks and images. See docstring for more information.
|
|
|
|
*** New option: ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~
|
|
|
|
See docstring for more information.
|
|
|
|
*** Export unnumbered headlines
|
|
|
|
Headlines, for which the property ~UNNUMBERED~ is non-nil, are now
|
|
exported without section numbers irrespective of their levels. The
|
|
property is inherited by children.
|
|
|
|
*** Tables can be sorted with an arbitrary function
|
|
|
|
It is now possible to specify a function, both programatically,
|
|
through a new optional argument, and interactively with ~f~ or ~F~
|
|
keys, to sort a table.
|
|
|
|
*** Table of contents can be local to a section
|
|
|
|
The ~TOC~ keywords now accepts an optional ~local~ parameter. See
|
|
manual for details.
|
|
|
|
*** Countdown timers can now be paused
|
|
|
|
~org-timer-pause-time~ now pauses and restarts both relative and
|
|
countdown timers.
|
|
|
|
*** New option ~only-window~ for ~org-agenda-window-setup~
|
|
|
|
When ~org-agenda-window-setup~ is set to ~only-window~, the agenda is
|
|
displayed as the sole window of the current frame.
|
|
|
|
*** ~{{{date}}}~ macro supports optional formatting argument
|
|
|
|
It is now possible to supply and optional formatting argument to
|
|
~{{{date}}}~. See manual for details.
|
|
|
|
*** ~{{{property}}}~ macro supports optional search argument
|
|
|
|
It is now possible to supply an optional search option to
|
|
~{{{property}}}~ in order to retrieve remote properties optional. See
|
|
manual for details.
|
|
|
|
*** New option ~org-export-with-title~
|
|
|
|
It is possible to suppress the title insertion with ~#+OPTIONS:
|
|
title:nil~ or globally using the variable ~org-export-with-title~.
|
|
|
|
*** New entities family: "\_ "
|
|
|
|
"\_ " are used to insert up to 20 contiguous spaces in various
|
|
back-ends. In particular, this family can be used to introduce
|
|
leading spaces within table cells.
|
|
|
|
*** New MathJax configuration options
|
|
|
|
Org uses the MathJax CDN by default. See the manual and the docstring
|
|
of ~org-html-mathjax-options~ for details.
|
|
|
|
*** New behaviour in `org-export-options-alist'
|
|
|
|
When defining a back-end, it is now possible to specify to give
|
|
`parse' behaviour on a keyword. It is equivalent to call
|
|
`org-element-parse-secondary-string' on the value.
|
|
|
|
However, parsed =KEYWORD= is automatically associated to an
|
|
=:EXPORT_KEYWORD:= property, which can be used to override the keyword
|
|
value during a subtree export. Moreover, macros are expanded in such
|
|
keywords and properties.
|
|
|
|
*** Viewport support in html export
|
|
|
|
Viewport for mobile-optimized website is now automatically inserted
|
|
when exporting to html. See ~org-html-viewport~ for details.
|
|
|
|
*** New ~#+SUBTITLE~ export keyword
|
|
|
|
Org can typeset a subtitle in some export backends. See the manual
|
|
for details.
|
|
|
|
*** Remotely edit a footnote definition
|
|
|
|
Calling ~org-edit-footnote-reference~ (C-c ') on a footnote reference
|
|
allows to edit its definition, as long as it is not anonymous, in
|
|
a dedicated buffer. It works even if buffer is currently narrowed.
|
|
|
|
*** New function ~org-delete-indentation~ bound to ~M-^~
|
|
|
|
Work as ~delete-indentation~ unless at heading, in which case text is
|
|
added to headline text.
|
|
|
|
*** Support for images in Texinfo export
|
|
|
|
~Texinfo~ back-end now handles images. See manual for details.
|
|
|
|
*** Support for captions in Texinfo export
|
|
|
|
Tables and source blocks can now have captions. Additionally, lists
|
|
of tables and lists of listings can be inserted in the document with
|
|
=#+TOC= keyword.
|
|
|
|
*** Countdown timer support hh:mm:ss format
|
|
|
|
In addition to setting countdown timers in minutes, they can also be
|
|
set using the hh:mm:ss format.
|
|
|
|
*** Extend ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~
|
|
|
|
~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~ now accepts 0 as an argument for
|
|
the number of clones, which removes the repeater from the original
|
|
subtree and creates one shifted, repeating clone.
|
|
|
|
*** New time block for clock tables: ~untilnow~
|
|
|
|
It encompasses all past closed clocks.
|
|
|
|
*** Support for the ~polyglossia~ LaTeX package
|
|
|
|
See the docstring of ~org-latex-classes~ and
|
|
~org-latex-guess-polyglossia-language~ for details.
|
|
|
|
*** None-floating tables, graphics and blocks can have captions
|
|
|
|
*** `org-insert-heading' can be forced to insert top-level headline
|
|
|
|
** Removed functions
|
|
|
|
*** Removed function ~org-translate-time~
|
|
|
|
Use ~org-timestamp-translate~ instead.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed function ~org-beamer-insert-options-template~
|
|
|
|
This function inserted a Beamer specific template at point or in
|
|
current subtree. Use ~org-export-insert-default-template~ instead, as
|
|
it provides more features and covers all export back-ends. It is also
|
|
accessible from the export dispatcher.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed function ~org-timer-cancel-timer~
|
|
|
|
~org-timer-stop~ now stops both relative and countdown timers.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed function ~org-export-solidify-link-text~
|
|
|
|
This function, being non-bijective, introduced bug in internal
|
|
references. Use ~org-export-get-reference~ instead.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed function ~org-end-of-meta-data-and-drawers~
|
|
|
|
The function is superseded by ~org-end-of-meta-data~, called with an
|
|
optional argument.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed functions ~org-table-colgroup-line-p~, ~org-table-cookie-line-p~
|
|
|
|
These functions were left-over from pre 8.0 era. They are not correct
|
|
anymore. Since they are not needed, they have no replacement.
|
|
** Removed options
|
|
|
|
*** ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~ is deprecated
|
|
|
|
It will be kept in code base until next release, for backward
|
|
compatibility.
|
|
|
|
If you need to separate consecutive lists with blank lines, always use
|
|
two of them, as if this option was nil (default value).
|
|
|
|
*** ~org-export-with-creator~ is a boolean
|
|
|
|
Special ~comment~ value is no longer allowed. It is possible to use a
|
|
body filter to add comments about the creator at the end of the
|
|
document instead.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed option =org-html-use-unicode-chars=
|
|
|
|
Setting this to non-nil was problematic as it converted characters
|
|
everywhere in the buffer, possibly corrupting URLs.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed option =org-babel-sh-command=
|
|
|
|
This undocumented option defaulted to the value of =shell-file-name=
|
|
at the time of loading =ob-shell=. The new behaviour is to use the
|
|
value of =shell-file-name= directly when the shell langage is =shell=.
|
|
To chose a different shell, either customize =shell-file-name= or bind
|
|
this variable locally.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed option =org-babel-sh-var-quote-fmt=
|
|
|
|
This undocumented option was supposed to provide different quoting
|
|
styles when changing the shell type. Changing the shell type can now
|
|
be done directly from the source block and the quoting style has to be
|
|
compatible across all shells, so a customization doesn't make sense
|
|
anymore. The chosen hard coded quoting style conforms to POSIX.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed option ~org-insert-labeled-timestamps-at-point~
|
|
|
|
Setting this option to anything else that the default value (nil)
|
|
would create invalid planning info. This dangerous option is now
|
|
removed.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed option ~org-koma-letter-use-title~
|
|
|
|
Use org-export-with-title instead. See also below.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed option ~org-entities-ascii-explanatory~
|
|
|
|
This variable has no effect since Org 8.0.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed option ~org-table-error-on-row-ref-crossing-hline~
|
|
|
|
This variable has no effect since August 2009.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed MathML-related options from ~org-html-mathjax-options~
|
|
|
|
MathJax automatically chooses the best display technology based on the
|
|
end-users browser. You may force initial usage of MathML via
|
|
~org-html-mathjax-template~ or by setting the ~path~ property of
|
|
~org-html-mathjax-options~.
|
|
|
|
*** Removed comment-related filters
|
|
|
|
~org-export-filter-comment-functions~ and
|
|
~org-export-filter-comment-block-functions~ variables do not exist
|
|
anymore.
|
|
** Miscellaneous
|
|
|
|
*** Strip all meta data from ITEM special property
|
|
|
|
ITEM special property does not contain TODO, priority or tags anymore.
|
|
|
|
*** File names in links accept are now compatible with URI syntax
|
|
|
|
Absolute file names can now start with =///= in addition to =/=. E.g.,
|
|
=[[file:///home/me/unicorn.jpg]]=.
|
|
|
|
*** Footnotes in included files are now local to the file
|
|
|
|
As a consequence, it is possible to include multiple Org files with
|
|
footnotes in a master document without being concerned about footnote
|
|
labels colliding.
|
|
|
|
*** Mailto links now use regular URI syntax
|
|
|
|
This change deprecates old Org syntax for mailto links:
|
|
=mailto:user@domain::Subject=.
|
|
|
|
*** =QUOTE= keywords do not exist anymore
|
|
|
|
=QUOTE= keywords have been deprecated since Org 8.2.
|
|
|
|
*** Select tests to perform with the build system
|
|
|
|
The build system has been enhanced to allow test selection with a
|
|
regular expression by defining =BTEST_RE= during the test invocation.
|
|
This is especially useful during bisection to find just when a
|
|
particular test failure was introduced.
|
|
|
|
*** Exact heading search for external links ignore spaces and cookies
|
|
|
|
Exact heading search for links now ignore spaces and cookies. This is
|
|
the case for links of the form ~file:projects.org::*task title~, as
|
|
well as links of the form ~file:projects.org::some words~
|
|
when ~org-link-search-must-match-exact-headline~ is not nil.
|
|
|
|
*** ~org-latex-hyperref-template~, ~org-latex-title-command~ formatting
|
|
|
|
New formatting keys are supported. See the respective docstrings.
|
|
Note, ~org-latex-hyperref-template~ has a new default value.
|
|
|
|
*** ~float, wasysym, marvosym~ are removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~
|
|
|
|
If you require any of these package add them to your preamble via
|
|
~org-latex-packages-alist~. Org also uses default LaTeX ~\tolerance~
|
|
now.
|
|
|
|
*** When exporting, throw an error on unresolved id/fuzzy links and code refs
|
|
|
|
This helps spotting wrong links.
|
|
* Version 8.2
|
|
|
|
** Incompatible changes
|
|
*** =ob-sh.el= renamed to =ob-shell=
|
|
This may require two changes in user config.
|
|
|
|
1. In =org-babel-do-load-languages=, change =(sh . t)= to =(shell . t)=.
|
|
2. Edit =local.mk= files to change the value of =BTEST_OB_LANGUAGES=
|
|
to remove "sh" and include "shell".
|
|
|
|
*** Combine org-mac-message.el and org-mac-link-grabber into org-mac-link.el
|
|
|
|
Please remove calls to =(require 'org-mac-message)= and =(require
|
|
'org-mac-link-grabber)= in your =.emacs= initialization file. All you
|
|
need now is =(require 'org-mac-link)=.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, replace any calls to =ogml-grab-link= to
|
|
=org-mac-grab-link=. For example, replace this line:
|
|
|
|
: (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'omgl-grab-link)
|
|
|
|
with this:
|
|
|
|
: (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'org-mac-grab-link)
|
|
|
|
*** HTML export: Replace =HTML_HTML5_FANCY= by =:html-html5-fancy= (...)
|
|
|
|
Some of the HTML specific export options in Org <8.1 are either nil or
|
|
t, like =#+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=. We replaced these binary options with
|
|
option keywords like :html-include-style.
|
|
|
|
So you need to replace
|
|
|
|
: #+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE: t
|
|
|
|
by
|
|
|
|
: #+OPTIONS: :html-include-style t
|
|
|
|
Options affected by this change: =HTML5_FANCY=, =HTML_INCLUDE_SCRIPTS=
|
|
and =HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=.
|
|
|
|
*** Add an argument to ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-buffer~
|
|
|
|
~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-file~ can run in a different
|
|
process when provided a non-nil =ASYNC= optional argument, without
|
|
relying on ~org-export-async-start~ macro.
|
|
|
|
Since =ASYNC= is the first of optional arguments, you have to shift
|
|
the other optional arguments accordingly.
|
|
|
|
*** Export back-ends are now structures
|
|
|
|
Export back-ends are now structures, and stored as such in the
|
|
communication channel during an export process. In other words, from
|
|
now on, ~(plist-get info :back-end)~ will return a structure instead
|
|
of a symbol.
|
|
|
|
Arguments in hooks and in filters are still symbols, though.
|
|
|
|
** Important bugfixes
|
|
|
|
*** [[doc:org-insert-heading][org-insert-heading]] has been rewritten and bugs are now fixed
|
|
*** The replacement of disputed keys is now turned of when reading a date
|
|
|
|
*** Match string for sparse trees can now contain a slash in a property value
|
|
|
|
You can now have searches like SOMEPROP="aaa/bbb". Until now,
|
|
this would break because the slash would be interpreted as the
|
|
separator starting a TOTO match string.
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
*** =C-c ^ x= will now sort checklist items by their checked status
|
|
|
|
See [[doc:org-sort-list][org-sort-list]]: hitting =C-c ^ x= will put checked items at the end
|
|
of the list.
|
|
*** Various LaTeX export enhancements
|
|
|
|
- Support SVG images
|
|
- Support for .pgf files
|
|
- LaTeX Babel blocks can now be exported as =.tikz= files
|
|
- Allow =latexmk= as an option for [[doc:org-latex-pdf-process][org-latex-pdf-process]]
|
|
- When using =\usepackage[AUTO]{babel}=, AUTO will automatically be
|
|
replaced with a value compatible with ~org-export-default-language~
|
|
or ~LANGUAGE~ keyword.
|
|
- The dependency on the =latexsym= LaTeX package has been removed, we
|
|
now use =amssymb= symbols by default instead.
|
|
|
|
*** New functions for paragraph motion
|
|
|
|
The commands =C-down= and =C-up= now invoke special commands
|
|
that use knowledge from the org-elements parser to move the cursor
|
|
in a paragraph-like way.
|
|
|
|
*** New entities in =org-entities.el=
|
|
|
|
Add support for ell, imath, jmath, varphi, varpi, aleph, gimel, beth,
|
|
dalet, cdots, S (§), dag, ddag, colon, therefore, because, triangleq,
|
|
leq, geq, lessgtr, lesseqgtr, ll, lll, gg, ggg, prec, preceq,
|
|
preccurlyeq, succ, succeq, succurlyeq, setminus, nexist(s), mho,
|
|
check, frown, diamond. Changes loz, vert, checkmark, smile and tilde.
|
|
|
|
*** Anonymous export back-ends
|
|
|
|
~org-export-create-backend~ can create anonymous export back-ends,
|
|
which can then be passed to export functions like
|
|
~org-export-to-file~, ~org-export-to-buffer~ or ~org-export-as~.
|
|
|
|
It allows for quick translation of Org syntax without the overhead of
|
|
registering a new back-end.
|
|
|
|
*** New agenda fortnight view
|
|
|
|
The agenda has not, in addition to day, week, month, and year
|
|
views, also a fortnight view covering 14 days.
|
|
** New options
|
|
|
|
*** New option [[doc:org-bookmark-names-plist][org-bookmark-names-plist]]
|
|
|
|
This allows to specify the names of automatic bookmarks.
|
|
*** New option [[doc:org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties][org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties]]
|
|
|
|
This allows more flexibility when optimizing the agenda generation.
|
|
See http://orgmode.org/worg/agenda-optimization.html for details.
|
|
*** New option: [[doc:org-html-link-use-abs-url][org-html-link-use-abs-url]] to force using absolute URLs
|
|
|
|
This is an export/publishing option, and should be used either within
|
|
the =#+OPTIONS= line(s) or within a [[doc:org-publish-project-alist][org-publish-project-alist]].
|
|
|
|
Setting this option to =t= is needed when the HTML output does not
|
|
allow relative URLs. For example, the =contrib/lisp/ox-rss.el=
|
|
library produces a RSS feed, and RSS feeds need to use absolute URLs,
|
|
so a combination of =:html-link-home "..." and :html-link-use-abs-url
|
|
t= is required---see the configuration example in the comment section
|
|
of =ox-rss.el=.
|
|
|
|
*** New option [[doc:org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd][org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd]]
|
|
|
|
This makes java executable configurable for ditaa blocks.
|
|
|
|
*** New options [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex][org-babel-latex-htlatex]] and [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages][org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages]]
|
|
|
|
This enables SVG generation from latex code blocks.
|
|
|
|
*** New option: [[doc:org-habit-show-done-always-green][org-habit-show-done-always-green]]
|
|
|
|
See [[http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-05/msg00214.html][this message]] from Max Mikhanosha.
|
|
|
|
*** New option: [[doc:org-babel-inline-result-wrap][org-babel-inline-result-wrap]]
|
|
|
|
If you set this to the following
|
|
|
|
: (setq org-babel-inline-result-wrap "$%s$")
|
|
|
|
then inline code snippets will be wrapped into the formatting string.
|
|
|
|
*** New option: [[doc:org-special-ctrl-o][org-special-ctrl-o]]
|
|
|
|
This variable can be used to turn off the special behavior of
|
|
=C-o= in tables.
|
|
** New contributed packages
|
|
|
|
- =ox-bibtex.el= by Nicolas Goaziou :: an utility to handle BibTeX
|
|
export to both LaTeX and HTML exports. It uses the [[http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/][bibtex2html]]
|
|
software.
|
|
|
|
- =org-screenshot.el= by Max Mikhanosha :: an utility to handle
|
|
screenshots easily from Org, using the external tool [[http://freecode.com/projects/scrot][scrot]].
|
|
|
|
** Miscellaneous
|
|
|
|
*** "QUOTE" keywords in headlines are deprecated
|
|
|
|
"QUOTE" keywords are an undocumented feature in Org. When a headline
|
|
starts with the keyword "QUOTE", its contents are parsed as
|
|
a ~quote-section~ and treated as an example block. You can achieve
|
|
the same with example blocks.
|
|
|
|
This feature is deprecated and will be removed in the next Org
|
|
release.
|
|
|
|
* Version 8.0.1
|
|
|
|
** Installation
|
|
|
|
Installation instructions have been updated and simplified.
|
|
|
|
If you have troubles installing or updating Org, focus on these
|
|
instructions:
|
|
|
|
- when updating via a =.zip/.tar.gz= file, you only need to set the
|
|
=load-path= in your =.emacs=. Set it before any other Org
|
|
customization that would call autoloaded Org functions.
|
|
|
|
- when updating by pulling Org's Git repository, make sure to create the
|
|
correct autoloads. You can do this by running =~$ make autoloads= (to
|
|
only create the autoloads) or by running =~$ make= (to also compile
|
|
the Emacs lisp files.) =~$ make help= and =~$ make helpall= gives you
|
|
detailed explanations.
|
|
|
|
- when updating through ELPA (either from GNU ELPA or from Org ELPA),
|
|
you have to install Org's ELPA package in a session where no Org
|
|
function has been called already.
|
|
|
|
When in doubt, run =M-x org-version RET= and see if you have a mixed-up
|
|
installation.
|
|
|
|
See http://orgmode.org/org.html#Installation for details.
|
|
|
|
** Incompatible changes
|
|
|
|
Org 8.0 is the most disruptive major version of Org.
|
|
|
|
If you configured export options, you will have to update some of them.
|
|
|
|
If you used =#+ATTR_*= keywords, the syntax of the attributes changed and
|
|
you will have to update them.
|
|
|
|
Below is a list of changes for which you need to take action.
|
|
|
|
See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html for the most recent version of
|
|
this list and for detailed instructions on how to migrate.
|
|
|
|
**** New export engine
|
|
|
|
Org 8.0 comes with a new export engine written by Nicolas Goaziou. This
|
|
export engine relies on ~org-element.el~ (Org's syntax parser), which was
|
|
already in Org's core. This new export engine triggered the rewriting of
|
|
/all/ export back-ends.
|
|
|
|
The most visible change is the export dispatcher, accessible through the
|
|
keybinding =C-c C-e=. By default, this menu only shows some of the
|
|
built-in export formats, but you can add more formats by loading them
|
|
directly (e.g., =(require 'ox-texinfo)= or by configuring the option
|
|
[[doc:org-export-backends][org-export-backends]].
|
|
|
|
More contributed back-ends are available from the =contrib/= directory, the
|
|
corresponding files start with the =ox-= prefix.
|
|
|
|
If you customized an export back-end (like HTML or LaTeX), you will need to
|
|
rename some options so that your customization is not lost. Typically, an
|
|
option starting with =org-export-html-= is now named =org-html-=. See the
|
|
manual for details and check [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html][this Worg page]] for directions.
|
|
|
|
**** New syntax for #+ATTR_HTML/LaTeX/... options
|
|
|
|
: #+ATTR_HTML width="200px"
|
|
|
|
should now be written
|
|
|
|
: #+ATTR_HTML :width 200px
|
|
|
|
Keywords like =#+ATTR_HTML= and =#+ATTR_LaTeX= are defined in their
|
|
respective back-ends, and the list of supported parameters depends on
|
|
each backend. See Org's manual for details.
|
|
|
|
**** ~org-remember.el~ has been removed
|
|
|
|
You cannot use =remember.el= anymore to capture notes.
|
|
|
|
Support for remember templates has been obsoleted since long, it is
|
|
now fully removed.
|
|
|
|
Use =M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET= to import your
|
|
remember templates into capture templates.
|
|
|
|
**** ~org-jsinfo.el~ has been merged into ~ox-html.el~
|
|
|
|
If you were requiring ~ox-jsinfo.el~ in your ~.emacs.el~ file, you
|
|
will have to remove this requirement from your initialization file.
|
|
|
|
**** Note for third-party developers
|
|
|
|
The name of the files for export back-end have changed: we now use the
|
|
prefix =ox-= for those files (like we use the =ob-= prefix for Babel
|
|
files.) For example ~org-html.el~ is now ~ox-html.el~.
|
|
|
|
If your code relies on these files, please update the names in your
|
|
code.
|
|
|
|
**** Packages moved from core to contrib
|
|
|
|
Since packages in Org's core are meant to be part of GNU Emacs, we try
|
|
to be minimalist when it comes to adding files into core. For 8.0, we
|
|
moved some contributions into the =contrib/= directory.
|
|
|
|
The rationale for deciding that these files should live in =contrib/=
|
|
is either because they rely on third-party software that is not
|
|
included in Emacs, or because they are not targeting a significant
|
|
user-base.
|
|
|
|
- org-colview-xemacs.el
|
|
- org-mac-message.el
|
|
- org-mew.el
|
|
- org-wl.el
|
|
- ox-freedmind.el
|
|
- ox-taskjuggler.el
|
|
|
|
Note that ~ox-freedmind.el~ has been rewritten by Jambunathan,
|
|
~org-mew.el~ has been enhanced by Tokuya Kameshima and
|
|
~ox-taskjuggler.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and others.
|
|
|
|
Also, the Taskjuggler exporter now uses TJ3 by default. John Hendy
|
|
wrote [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html][a tutorial on Worg]] for the TJ3 export.
|
|
|

Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou implemented ~ox-groff.el~ to allow
|
|
conversion from Org files to groff.
|
|
|
|
*** ~ox-koma-letter.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and Alan Schmitt
|
|
|
|
This back-end allow to export Org pages to the =KOMA Scrlttr2= format.
|
|
|
|
*** ~ox-rss.el~ by Bastien
|
|
|
|
This back-end lets you export Org pages to RSS 2.0 feeds. Combined
|
|
with the HTML publishing feature, this allows you to build a blog
|
|
entirely with Org.
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
*** Export
|
|
|
|
**** New export generic options
|
|
|
|
If you use Org exporter, we advise you to re-read [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Exporting][the manual section about
|
|
it]]. It has been updated and includes new options.
|
|
|
|
Among the new/updated export options, three are of particular importance:
|
|
|
|
- [[doc:org-export-allow-bind-keywords][org-export-allow-bind-keywords]] :: This option replaces the old option
|
|
=org-export-allow-BIND= and the default value is =nil=, not =confirm=.
|
|
You will need to explicitly set this to =t= in your initialization
|
|
file if you want to allow =#+BIND= keywords.
|
|
|
|
- [[doc:org-export-with-planning][org-export-with-planning]] :: This new option controls the export of
|
|
=SCHEDULED:, DEADLINE:, CLOSED:= lines, and planning information is
|
|
now skipped by default during export. This use to be the job of
|
|
[[doc:org-export-with-timestamps][org-export-with-timestamps]], but this latter option has been given a
|
|
new role: it controls the export of /standalone time-stamps/. When
|
|
set to =nil=, Org will not export active and inactive time-stamps
|
|
standing on a line by themselves or within a paragraph that only
|
|
contains time-stamps.
|
|
|
|
To check if an option has been introduced or its default value changed in
|
|
Org 8.0, do =C-h v [option] RET= and check if the documentation says that
|
|
the variable has been introduced (or changed) in version 24.4 of Emacs.
|
|
|
|
**** Enhanced default stylesheet for the HTML exporter
|
|
|
|
See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-style-default][org-html-style-default]].
|
|
|
|
**** New tags, classes and ids for the HTML exporter
|
|
|
|
See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-divs][org-html-divs]].
|
|
|
|
**** Support for tikz pictures in LaTeX export
|
|
**** ~org-man.el~: New export function for "man" links
|
|
**** ~org-docview.el~: New export function for docview links
|
|
*** Structure editing
|
|
|
|
**** =C-u C-u M-RET= inserts a heading at the end of the parent subtree
|
|
**** Cycling to the =CONTENTS= view keeps inline tasks folded
|
|
|
|
[[doc:org-cycle-hook][org-cycle-hook]] as a new function [[doc:org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks][org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks]] which
|
|
prevents the display of inline tasks when showing the content of a subtree.
|
|
|
|
**** =C-c -= in a region makes a list item for each line
|
|
|
|
This is the opposite of the previous behavior, where =C-c -= on a region
|
|
would create one item for the whole region, and where =C-u C-c -= would
|
|
create an item for each line. Now =C-c -= on the selected region creates
|
|
an item per line, and =C-u C-c -= creates a single item for the whole
|
|
region.
|
|
|
|
**** When transposing words, markup characters are now part of the words
|
|
|
|
In Emacs, you can transpose words with =M-t=. Transposing =*these*
|
|
_words__= will preserve markup.
|
|
|
|
**** New command [[doc:org-set-property-and-value][org-set-property-and-value]] bound to =C-c C-x P=
|
|
|
|
This command allows you to quickly add both the property and its value. It
|
|
is useful in buffers where there are many properties and where =C-c C-x p=
|
|
can slow down the flow of editing too much.
|
|
|
|
**** New commands [[doc:org-next-block][org-next-block]] and [[doc:org-previous-block][org-previous-block]]
|
|
|
|
These commands allow you to go to the previous block (=C-c M-b= or the
|
|
speedy key =B=) or to the next block (=C-c M-f= or the speedy key =F=.)
|
|
|
|
**** New commands [[doc:org-drag-line-forward][org-drag-line-forward]] and [[doc:org-drag-line-backward][org-drag-line-backward]]
|
|
|
|
These commands emulate the old behavior of =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= but are
|
|
now bound to =S-M-<down>= and =S-M-<up>= respectively, since =M-<down>= and
|
|
=M-<up>= now drag the whole element at point (a paragraph, a table, etc.)
|
|
forward and backward.
|
|
|
|
**** When a list item has a checkbox, inserting a new item uses a checkbox too
|
|
**** When sorting entries/items, only the description of links is considered
|
|
|
|
Now Org will sort this list
|
|
|
|
: - [[http://abc.org][B]]
|
|
: - [[http://def.org][A]]
|
|
|
|
like this:
|
|
|
|
: - [[http://def.org][A]]
|
|
: - [[http://abc.org][B]]
|
|
|
|
by comparing the descriptions, not the links.
|
|
Same when sorting headlines instead of list items.
|
|
**** New option =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp=
|
|
|
|
For example, setting this option to "^;;; " in Emacs lisp files and using
|
|
=orgstruct-mode= in those files will allow you to cycle through visibility
|
|
states as if lines starting with ";;; *..." where headlines.
|
|
|
|
In general, you want to set =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= as a file
|
|
local variable.
|
|
|
|
**** New behavior of [[doc:org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift][org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift]]
|
|
|
|
The default is now to ask for a time-shift only when there is a time-stamp.
|
|
When called with a universal prefix argument =C-u=, it will not ask for a
|
|
time-shift even if there is a time-stamp.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree][org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree]]
|
|
|
|
This defaults to =t= so that the whole subtree is highlighted when you
|
|
restrict the agenda view to it with =C-c C-x <= (or the speed command =<=).
|
|
The default setting helps ensuring that you are not adding tasks after the
|
|
restricted region. If you find this highlighting too intrusive, set this
|
|
option to =nil=.
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]]
|
|
|
|
When switching back from a =DONE= keyword to a =TODO= keyword, Org now
|
|
removes the =CLOSED= planning information, if any. It also removes this
|
|
information when going back to a non-TODO state (e.g., with =C-c C-t SPC=).
|
|
If you want to keep the =CLOSED= planning information when removing the
|
|
TODO keyword, set [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] to =t=.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-image-actual-width][org-image-actual-width]]
|
|
|
|
This option allows you to change the width of in-buffer displayed images.
|
|
The default is to use the actual width of the image, but you can use a
|
|
fixed value for all images, or fall back on an attribute like
|
|
|
|
: #+attr_html: :width 300px
|
|
*** Scheduled/deadline
|
|
|
|
**** Implement "delay" cookies for scheduled items
|
|
|
|
If you want to delay the display of a scheduled task in the agenda, you can
|
|
now use a delay cookie like this: =SCHEDULED: <2004-12-25 Sat -2d>=. The
|
|
task is still scheduled on the 25th but will appear in your agenda starting
|
|
from two days later (i.e. from March 27th.)
|
|
|
|
Imagine for example that your co-workers are not done in due time and tell
|
|
you "we need two more days". In that case, you may want to delay the
|
|
display of the task in your agenda by two days, but you still want the task
|
|
to appear as scheduled on March 25th.
|
|
|
|
In case the task contains a repeater, the delay is considered to affect all
|
|
occurrences; if you want the delay to only affect the first scheduled
|
|
occurrence of the task, use =--2d= instead. See [[doc:org-scheduled-delay-days][org-scheduled-delay-days]]
|
|
and [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline]] for details on how to
|
|
control this globally or per agenda.
|
|
|
|
**** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-s= will insert a delay cookie for scheduled tasks
|
|
|
|
See the previous section for why delay cookies may be useful.
|
|
|
|
**** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-d= will insert a warning delay for deadline tasks
|
|
|
|
=C-u C-u C-c C-d= now inserts a warning delay to deadlines.
|
|
*** Calendar, diary and appts
|
|
|
|
**** New variable [[doc:org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map][org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map]]
|
|
|
|
By default, this new local map uses "." to go to today's date, like in the
|
|
normal =M-x calendar RET=. If you want to deactivate this and to reassign
|
|
the "@" key to =calendar-goto-today=, use this:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
;; Unbind "." in Org's calendar:
|
|
(define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map (kbd ".") nil)
|
|
|
|
;; Bind "@" to `calendar-goto-today':
|
|
(define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map
|
|
(kbd "@")
|
|
(lambda () (interactive) (org-eval-in-calendar '(calendar-goto-today))))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
**** In Org's calendar, =!= displays diary entries of the date at point
|
|
|
|
This is useful when you want to check if you don't already have an
|
|
appointment when setting new ones with =C-c .= or =C-c s=. =!= will
|
|
call =diary-view-entries= and display the diary in a separate buffer.
|
|
|
|
**** [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]]: only keep the descriptions of links
|
|
|
|
[[doc:org-diary][org-diary]] returns diary information from Org files, but it returns it
|
|
in a diary buffer, not in an Org mode buffer. When links are displayed,
|
|
only show their description, not the full links.
|
|
*** Agenda
|
|
|
|
**** New agenda type =agenda*= and entry types =:scheduled* :deadline*=
|
|
|
|
When defining agenda custom commands, you can now use =agenda*=: this will
|
|
list entries that have both a date and a time. This is useful when you
|
|
want to build a list of appointments.
|
|
|
|
You can also set [[doc:org-agenda-entry-types][org-agenda-entry-types]] either globally or locally in
|
|
each agenda custom command and use =:timestamp*= and/or =:deadline*= there.
|
|
|
|
Another place where this is useful is your =.diary= file:
|
|
|
|
: %%(org-diary :scheduled*) ~/org/rdv.org
|
|
|
|
This will list only entries from =~/org/rdv.org= that are scheduled with a
|
|
time value (i.e. appointments).
|
|
|
|
**** New agenda sorting strategies
|
|
|
|
[[doc:org-agenda-sorting-strategy][org-agenda-sorting-strategy]] allows these new sorting strategies:
|
|
|
|
| Strategy | Explanations |
|
|
|----------------+------------------------------------------|
|
|
| timestamp-up | Sort by any timestamp, early first |
|
|
| timestamp-down | Sort by any timestamp, late first |
|
|
| scheduled-up | Sort by scheduled timestamp, early first |
|
|
| scheduled-down | Sort by scheduled timestamp, late first |
|
|
| deadline-up | Sort by deadline timestamp, early first |
|
|
| deadline-down | Sort by deadline timestamp, late first |
|
|
| ts-up | Sort by active timestamp, early first |
|
|
| ts-down | Sort by active timestamp, late first |
|
|
| tsia-up | Sort by inactive timestamp, early first |
|
|
| tsia-down | Sort by inactive timestamp, late first |
|
|
|
|
**** New options to limit the number of agenda entries
|
|
|
|
You can now limit the number of entries in an agenda view. This is
|
|
different from filters: filters only /hide/ the entries in the agenda,
|
|
while limits are set while generating the list of agenda entries.
|
|
|
|
These new options are available:
|
|
|
|
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-entries][org-agenda-max-entries]] :: limit by number of entries.
|
|
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] :: limit by number of TODOs.
|
|
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-tags][org-agenda-max-tags]] :: limit by number of tagged entries.
|
|
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-effort][org-agenda-max-effort]] :: limit by effort (minutes).
|
|
|
|
For example, if you locally set [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] to 3 in an agenda
|
|
view, the agenda will be limited to the first three todos. Other entries
|
|
without a TODO keyword or beyond the third TODO headline will be ignored.
|
|
|
|
When setting a limit (e.g. about an effort's sum), the default behavior is
|
|
to exclude entries that cannot be checked against (e.g. entries that have
|
|
no effort property.) To include other entries too, you can set the limit
|
|
to a negative number. For example =(setq org-agenda-max-tags -3)= will not
|
|
show the fourth tagged headline (and beyond), but it will also show
|
|
non-tagged headlines.
|
|
|
|
**** =~= in agenda view sets temporary limits
|
|
|
|
You can hit =~= in the agenda to temporarily set limits: this will
|
|
regenerate the agenda as if the limits were set. This is useful for
|
|
example when you want to only see a list of =N= tasks, or a list of tasks
|
|
that take only =N= minutes.
|
|
|
|
**** "=" in agenda view filters by regular expressions
|
|
|
|
You can now filter agenda entries by regular expressions using ~=~. =C-u
|
|
== will filter entries out. Regexp filters are cumulative. You can set
|
|
[[doc:org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset][org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset]] to suit your needs in each agenda view.
|
|
|
|
**** =|= in agenda view resets all filters
|
|
|
|
Since it's common to combine tag filters, category filters, and now regexp
|
|
filters, there is a new command =|= to reset all filters at once.
|
|
|
|
**** Allow writing an agenda to an =.org= file
|
|
|
|
You can now write an agenda view to an =.org= file. It copies the
|
|
headlines and their content (but not subheadings) into the new file.
|
|
|
|
This is useful when you want to quickly share an agenda containing the full
|
|
list of notes.
|
|
|
|
**** New commands to drag an agenda line forward (=M-<down>=) or backward (=M-<up>=)
|
|
|
|
It sometimes handy to move agenda lines around, just to quickly reorganize
|
|
your tasks, or maybe before saving the agenda to a file. Now you can use
|
|
=M-<down>= and =M-<up>= to move the line forward or backward.
|
|
|
|
This does not persist after a refresh of the agenda, and this does not
|
|
change the =.org= files who contribute to the agenda.
|
|
|
|
**** Use =%b= for displaying "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view
|
|
|
|
[[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] now allows to use a =%b= formatter to tell Org
|
|
to display "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view.
|
|
|
|
This is useful when you want to display the task hierarchy in your agenda.
|
|
|
|
**** Use =%l= for displaying the headline's level in the agenda view
|
|
|
|
[[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] allows to use a =%l= formatter to tell Org to
|
|
display entries with additional spaces corresponding to their level in the
|
|
outline tree.
|
|
|
|
**** [[doc:org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] will ask before overwriting an existing file
|
|
|
|
=M-x org-agenda-write RET= (or =C-c C-w= from an agenda buffer) used to
|
|
overwrite preexisting file with the same name without confirmation. It now
|
|
asks for a confirmation.
|
|
|
|
**** New commands =M-m= and =M-*= to toggle (all) mark(s) for bulk action
|
|
|
|
- [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle][org-agenda-bulk-toggle]] :: this command is bound to =M-m= and toggles
|
|
the mark of the entry at point.
|
|
|
|
- [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all][org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all]] :: this command is bound to =M-*= and
|
|
toggles all the marks in the current agenda.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level][org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level]]
|
|
|
|
This option sets the maximum outline level to display in search view.
|
|
E.g. when this is set to 1, the search view will only show headlines of
|
|
level 1.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds][org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds]]
|
|
|
|
This allows to compare times using seconds instead of days when honoring
|
|
options like =org-agenda-todo-ignore-*= in the agenda display.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-entry-text-leaders][org-agenda-entry-text-leaders]]
|
|
|
|
This allows you to get rid of the ">" character that gets added in front of
|
|
entries excerpts when hitting =E= in the agenda view.
|
|
|
|
**** New formatting string for past deadlines in [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]
|
|
|
|
The default formatting for past deadlines is ="%2d d. ago: "=, which makes
|
|
it explicit that the deadline is in the past. You can configure this via
|
|
[[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]. Note that the width of the formatting
|
|
string is important to keep the agenda alignment clean.
|
|
|
|
**** New allowed value =repeated-after-deadline= for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]]
|
|
|
|
When [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] is set to
|
|
=repeated-after-deadline=, the agenda will skip scheduled items if they are
|
|
repeated beyond the current deadline.
|
|
|
|
**** New option for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled][org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled]]
|
|
|
|
This variable may be set to nil, t, the symbol `pre-scheduled', or a number
|
|
which will then give the number of days before the actual deadline when the
|
|
prewarnings should resume. The symbol `pre-scheduled' eliminates the
|
|
deadline prewarning only prior to the scheduled date.
|
|
|
|
Read the full docstring for details.
|
|
|
|
**** [[doc:org-class][org-class]] now supports holiday strings in the skip-weeks parameter
|
|
|
|
For example, this task will now be skipped only on new year's day:
|
|
|
|
: * Task
|
|
: <%%(org-class 2012 1 1 2013 12 12 2 "New Year's Day")>
|
|
*** Capture
|
|
|
|
**** Allow =C-1= as a prefix for [[doc:org-agenda-capture][org-agenda-capture]] and [[doc:org-capture][org-capture]]
|
|
|
|
With a =C-1= prefix, the capture mechanism will use the =HH:MM= value at
|
|
point (if any) or the current =HH:MM= time as the default time for the
|
|
capture template.
|
|
|
|
**** Expand keywords within %(sexp) placeholder in capture templates
|
|
|
|
If you use a =%:keyword= construct within a =%(sexp)= construct, Org will
|
|
expand the keywords before expanding the =%(sexp)=.
|
|
|
|
**** Allow to contextualize capture (and agenda) commands by checking the name of the buffer
|
|
|
|
[[doc:org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] and [[doc:org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]]
|
|
allow you to define what capture templates and what agenda commands should
|
|
be available in various contexts. It is now possible for the context to
|
|
check against the name of the buffer.
|
|
*** Tag groups
|
|
|
|
Using =#+TAGS: { Tag1 : Tag2 Tag3 }= will define =Tag1= as a /group tag/
|
|
(note the colon after =Tag1=). If you search for =Tag1=, it will return
|
|
headlines containing either =Tag1=, =Tag2= or =Tag3= (or any combination
|
|
of those tags.)
|
|
|
|
You can use group tags for sparse tree in an Org buffer, for creating
|
|
agenda views, and for filtering.
|
|
|
|
See http://orgmode.org/org.html#Tag-groups for details.
|
|
|
|
*** Links
|
|
|
|
**** =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= will ignore non-core link functions
|
|
|
|
Org knows how to store links from Org buffers, from info files and from
|
|
other Emacs buffers. Org can be taught how to store links from any buffer
|
|
through new link protocols (see [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Adding-hyperlink-types]["Adding hyperlink types"]] in the manual.)
|
|
|
|
Sometimes you want Org to ignore added link protocols and store the link
|
|
as if the protocol was not known.
|
|
|
|
You can now do this with =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET=.
|
|
|
|
**** =C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= on an active region will store links for each lines
|
|
|
|
Imagine for example that you want to store a link for every message in a
|
|
Gnus summary buffer. In that case =C-x h C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link
|
|
RET= will store a link for every line (i.e. message) if the region is
|
|
active.
|
|
|
|
**** =C-c C-M-l= will add a default description for links which don't have one
|
|
|
|
=C-c C-M-l= inserts all stored links. If a link does not have a
|
|
description, this command now adds a default one, so that we are not mixing
|
|
with-description and without-description links when inserting them.
|
|
|
|
**** No curly braces to bracket links within internal links
|
|
|
|
When storing a link to a headline like
|
|
|
|
: * See [[http://orgmode.org][Org website]]
|
|
|
|
[[doc:org-store-link][org-store-link]] used to convert the square brackets into curly brackets.
|
|
It does not anymore, taking the link description or the link path, when
|
|
there is no description.
|
|
*** Table
|
|
|
|
**** Switching between #+TBLFM lines
|
|
|
|
If you have several =#+TBLFM= lines below a table, =C-c C-c= on a line will
|
|
apply the formulas from this line, and =C-c C-c= on another line will apply
|
|
those other formulas.
|
|
|
|
**** You now use "nan" for empty fields in Calc formulas
|
|
|
|
If empty fields are of interest, it is recommended to reread the section
|
|
[[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc][3.5.2 Formula syntax for Calc]] of the manual because the description for the
|
|
mode strings has been clarified and new examples have been added towards
|
|
the end.
|
|
|
|
**** Handle localized time-stamps in formulas evaluation
|
|
|
|
If your =LOCALE= is set so that Org time-stamps use another language than
|
|
english, and if you make time computations in Org's table, it now works by
|
|
internally converting the time-stamps with a temporary =LOCALE=C= before
|
|
doing computation.
|
|
|
|
**** New lookup functions
|
|
|
|
There are now three lookup functions:
|
|
|
|
- [[doc:org-loopup-first][org-loopup-first]]
|
|
- [[doc:org-loopup-last][org-loopup-last]]
|
|
- [[doc:org-loopup-all][org-loopup-all]]
|
|
|
|
See [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Lookup-functions][the manual]] for details.
|
|
*** Startup keywords
|
|
|
|
These new startup keywords are now available:
|
|
|
|
| Startup keyword | Option |
|
|
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
|
|
| =#+STARTUP: logdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer t)= |
|
|
| =#+STARTUP: nologdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer nil)= |
|
|
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
|
|
| =#+STARTUP: logstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed t)= |
|
|
| =#+STARTUP: nologstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed nil)= |
|
|
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
|
|
| =#+STARTUP: latexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview t)= |
|
|
| =#+STARTUP: nolatexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview nil)= |
|
|
|
|
*** Clocking
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]]
|
|
|
|
E.g. if [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] is set to 5, time is 14:47 and you
|
|
clock in: then the clock starts at 14:45. If you clock out within the next
|
|
5 minutes, the clock line will be removed; if you clock out 8 minutes after
|
|
your clocked in, the clock out time will be 14:50.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations][org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations]]
|
|
|
|
When non-nil, =C-c C-x C-d= uses effort durations. E.g., by default, one
|
|
day is considered to be a 8 hours effort, so a task that has been clocked
|
|
for 16 hours will be displayed as during 2 days in the clock display or in
|
|
the clocktable.
|
|
|
|
See [[doc:org-effort-durations][org-effort-durations]] on how to set effort durations and
|
|
[[doc:org-time-clocksum-format][org-time-clocksum-format]] for more on time clock formats.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-clock-x11idle-program-name][org-clock-x11idle-program-name]]
|
|
|
|
This allows to set the name of the program which prints X11 idle time in
|
|
milliseconds. The default is to use =x11idle=.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time][org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time]]
|
|
|
|
When non-nil, use the last clock out time for [[doc:org-todo][org-todo]]. Note that this
|
|
option has precedence over the combined use of [[doc:org-use-effective-time][org-use-effective-time]] and
|
|
[[doc:org-extend-today-until][org-extend-today-until]].
|
|
|
|
**** =S-<left/right>= on a clocksum column will update the sum by updating the last clock
|
|
**** =C-u 3 C-S-<up/down>= will update clock timestamps synchronously by 3 units
|
|
**** New parameter =:wstart= for clocktables to define the week start day
|
|
**** New parameter =:mstart= to state the starting day of the month
|
|
**** Allow relative times in clocktable tstart and tend options
|
|
**** The clocktable summary is now a caption
|
|
**** =:tstart= and =:tend= and friends allow relative times like "<-1w>" or "<now>"
|
|
*** Babel
|
|
|
|
**** You can now use =C-c C-k= for [[doc:org-edit-src-abort][org-edit-src-abort]]
|
|
|
|
This allows you to quickly cancel editing a source block.
|
|
|
|
**** =C-u C-u M-x org-babel-tangle RET= tangles by the target file of the block at point
|
|
|
|
This is handy if you want to tangle all source code blocks that have the
|
|
same target than the block at point.
|
|
|
|
**** New options for auto-saving the base buffer or the source block editing buffer
|
|
|
|
When [[doc:org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save][org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save]] is set to =t=, editing a source block
|
|
in a new window will turn on =auto-save-mode= and save the code in a new
|
|
file under the same directory than the base Org file.
|
|
|
|
When [[doc:org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay][org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay]] is set to a number of minutes =N=,
|
|
the base Org buffer will be saved after this number of minutes of idle
|
|
time.
|
|
|
|
**** New =:post= header argument post-processes results
|
|
|
|
This header argument may be used to pass the results of the current
|
|
code block through another code block for post-processing. See the
|
|
manual for a usage example.
|
|
|
|
**** Commented out heading are ignored when collecting blocks for tangling
|
|
|
|
If you comment out a heading (with =C-c ;= anywhere on the heading or in
|
|
the subtree), code blocks from within this heading are now ignored when
|
|
collecting blocks for tangling.
|
|
|
|
**** New option [[doc:org-babel-hash-show-time][org-babel-hash-show-time]] to show a time-stamp in the result hash
|
|
**** Do not ask for confirmation if cached value is current
|
|
|
|
Do not run [[doc:org-babel-confirm-evaluate][org-babel-confirm-evaluate]] if source block has a cache and the
|
|
cache value is current as there is no evaluation involved in this case.
|
|
**** =ob-sql.el= and =ob-python.el= have been improved.
|
|
**** New Babel files only need to =(require 'ob)=
|
|
|
|
When writing a new Babel file, you now only need to use =(require 'ob)=
|
|
instead of requiring each Babel library one by one.
|
|
*** Faces
|
|
|
|
- Org now fontifies radio link targets by default
|
|
- In the agenda, use [[doc:org-todo-keyword-faces][org-todo-keyword-faces]] to highlight selected TODO keywords
|
|
- New face [[doc:org-priority][org-priority]], enhanced fontification of priority cookies in agenda
|
|
- New face [[doc:org-tag-group][org-tag-group]] for group tags

|
|
- [[doc:org-format-latex-options][org-format-latex-options]] allows to set the foreground/background colors automatically
|
|
- New option [[doc:org-archive-file-header-format][org-archive-file-header-format]]
|
|
- New "neg" entity in [[doc:org-entities][org-entities]]
|
|
- New function [[doc:org-docview-export][org-docview-export]] to export docview links
|
|
- New =:eps= header argument for ditaa code blocks
|
|
- New option [[doc:org-gnus-no-server][org-gnus-no-server]] to start Gnus with =gnus-no-server=

|
|
|
*** Spanish translation of the Org guide by David Arroyo Menéndez
|
|
|
|
David (and others) translated the Org compact guide in spanish:
|
|
|
|
You can read the [[http://orgmode.org/worg/orgguide/orgguide.es.pdf][PDF guide]].
|
|
|
|
*** ~poporg.el~ and ~outorg.el~
|
|
|
|
Two new libraries (~poporg.el~ by François Pinard and ~outorg.el~ by
|
|
Thorsten Jolitz) now enable editing of comment-sections from source-code
|
|
buffers in temporary Org-mode buffers, making the full editing power of
|
|
Org-mode available. ~outorg.el~ comes together with ~outshine.el~ and
|
|
~navi-mode.el~, two more libraries by Thorsten Jolitz with the goal to give
|
|
source-code buffers the /look & feel/ of Org-mode buffers while greatly
|
|
improving navigation and structure editing. A detailed description can be
|
|
found here: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html

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

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

|
*** Inline display of linked images
|
|
|
|
Images can now be displayed inline. The key C-c C-x C-v does
|
|
toggle the display of such images. Note that only image links
|
|
that have no description part will be inlined.
|
|
|
|
*** Implement offsets for ordered lists
|
|
|
|
If you want to start an ordered plain list with a number different
|
|
from 1, you can now do it like this:
|
|
|
|
: 1. [@start:12] will star a lit a number 12
|
|
|
|
*** Babel: code block body expansion for table and preview
|
|
|
|
In org-babel, code is "expanded" prior to evaluation. I.e. the
|
|
code that is actually evaluated comprises the code block contents,
|
|
augmented with the extra code which assigns the referenced data to
|
|
variables. It is now possible to preview expanded contents, and
|
|
also to expand code during during tangling. This expansion takes
|
|
into account all header arguments, and variables.
|
|
|
|
A new keybinding `C-c M-b p' bound to `org-babel-expand-src-block'
|
|
can be used from inside of a source code block to preview its
|
|
expanded contents (which can be very useful for debugging).
|
|
tangling
|
|
|
|
The expanded body can now be tangled, this includes variable
|
|
values which may be the results of other source-code blocks, or
|
|
stored in headline properties or tables. One possible use for this
|
|
is to allow those using org-babel for their emacs initialization
|
|
to store values (e.g. usernames, passwords, etc...) in headline
|
|
properties or in tables.
|
|
|
|
Org-babel now supports three new header arguments, and new default
|
|
behavior for handling horizontal lines in tables (hlines), column
|
|
names, and rownames across all languages.
|
|
|
|
*** Editing Convenience and Appearance
|
|
|
|
**** New command =org-copy-visible= (=C-c C-x v=)
|
|
|
|
This command will copy the visible text in the region into the
|
|
kill ring. Thanks to Florian Beck for this function and to
|
|
Carsten for adding it to org.el and documenting it!
|
|
|
|
**** Make it possible to protect hidden subtrees from being killed by =C-k=
|
|
|
|
See the new variable =org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree=. This was a
|
|
request by Scott Otterson.
|
|
|
|
**** Implement pretty display of entities, sub-, and superscripts.
|
|
|
|
The command =C-c C-x \= toggles the display of Org's special
|
|
entities like =\alpha= as pretty unicode characters. Also, sub
|
|
and superscripts are displayed in a pretty way (raised/lower
|
|
display, in a smaller font). If you want to exclude sub- and
|
|
superscripts, see the variable
|
|
=org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts=.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Eric Schulte and Ulf Stegeman for making this possible.
|
|
|
|
**** New faces for title, date, author and email address lines
|
|
|
|
The keywords in these lines are now dimmed out, and the title is
|
|
displayed in a larger font, and a special font is also used for
|
|
author, date, and email information. This is implemented by the
|
|
following new faces:
|
|
|
|
=org-document-title=
|
|
=org-document-info=
|
|
=org-document-info-keyword=
|
|
|
|
In addition, the variable =org-hidden-keywords= can be used to
|
|
make the corresponding keywords disappear.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Dan Davison for this feature.
|
|
|
|
**** Simpler way to specify faces for tags and todo keywords
|
|
|
|
The variables =org-todo-keyword-faces=, =org-tag-faces=, and
|
|
=org-priority-faces= now accept simple color names as
|
|
specifications. The colors will be used as either foreground or
|
|
background color for the corresponding keyword. See also the
|
|
variable =org-faces-easy-properties=, which governs which face
|
|
property is affected by this setting.
|
|
|
|
This is really a great simplification for setting keyword faces.
|
|
The change is based on an idea and patch by Ryan Thompson.
|
|
|
|
**** <N> in tables now means fixed width, not maximum width
|
|
|
|
Requested by Michael Brand.
|
|
|
|
**** Better level cycling function
|
|
|
|
=TAB= in an empty headline cycles the level of that headline
|
|
through likely states. Ryan Thompson implemented an improved
|
|
version of this function, which does not depend upon when exactly
|
|
this command is used. Thanks to Ryan for this improvement.
|
|
|
|
**** Adaptive filling
|
|
|
|
For paragraph text, =org-adaptive-fill-function= did not handle
|
|
the base case of regular text which needed to be filled. This is
|
|
now fixed. Among other things, it allows email-style ">"
|
|
comments to be filled correctly.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Dan Hackney for this patch.
|
|
|
|
**** `org-reveal' (=C-c C-r=) also decrypts encrypted entries (org-crypt.el)
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Richard Riley for triggering this change.
|
|
|
|
**** Better automatic letter selection for TODO keywords
|
|
|
|
When all first letters of keywords have been used, Org now
|
|
assigns more meaningful characters based on the keywords.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Mikael Fornius for this patch.
|
|
|
|
*** Clocking
|
|
|
|
**** Clock: Allow synchronous update of timestamps in CLOCK log
|
|
|
|
Using =S-M-<up/down>= on CLOCK log timestamps will
|
|
increase/decrease the two timestamps on this line so that
|
|
duration will keep the same. Note that duration can still be
|
|
slightly modified in case a timestamp needs some rounding.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Rainer Stengele for this idea.
|
|
|
|
**** Localized clock tables
|
|
|
|
Clock tables now support a new new =:lang= parameter, allowing
|
|
the user to customize the localization of the table headers. See
|
|
the variable =org-clock-clocktable-language-setup= which controls
|
|
available translated strings.
|
|
|
|
**** Show clock overruns in mode line
|
|
|
|
When clocking an item with a planned effort, overrunning the
|
|
planned time is now made visible in the mode line, for example
|
|
using the new face =org-mode-line-clock-overrun=, or by adding an
|
|
extra string given by =org-task-overrun-text=.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Richard Riley for a patch to this effect.
|
|
|
|
**** Clock reports can now include the running, incomplete clock
|
|
|
|
If you have a clock running, and the entry being clocked falls
|
|
into the scope when creating a clock table, the time so far spent
|
|
can be added to the total. This behavior depends on the setting
|
|
of =org-clock-report-include-clocking-task=. The default is
|
|
=nil=.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Bernt Hansen for this useful addition.
|
|
|
|
*** Misc
|
|
|
|
**** Improvements with inline tasks and indentation
|
|
|
|
There is now a configurable way on how to export inline tasks.
|
|
See the new variable =org-inlinetask-export-templates=.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Nicolas Goaziou for coding these changes.
|
|
|
|
**** A property value of "nil" now means to unset a property
|
|
|
|
This can be useful in particular with property inheritance, if
|
|
some upper level has the property, and some grandchild of it
|
|
would like to have the default settings (i.e. not overruled by a
|
|
property) back.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Robert Goldman and Bernt Hansen for suggesting this
|
|
change.
|
|
|
|
**** New helper functions in org-table.el
|
|
|
|
There are new functions to access and write to a specific table field.
|
|
This is for hackers, and maybe for the org-babel people.
|
|
|
|
#+begin_example
|
|
org-table-get
|
|
org-table-put
|
|
org-table-current-line
|
|
org-table-goto-line
|
|
#+end_example
|
|
|
|
**** Archiving: Allow to reverse order in target node
|
|
|
|
The new option =org-archive-reversed-order= allows to have
|
|
archived entries inserted in a last-on-top fashion in the target
|
|
node.
|
|
|
|
This was requested by Tom.
|
|
|
|
**** Org-reveal: Double prefix arg shows the entire subtree of the parent
|
|
|
|
This can help to get out of an inconsistent state produced for
|
|
example by viewing from the agenda.
|
|
|
|
This was a request by Matt Lundin.
