This patch introduces a new variable,
`org-list-two-spaces-after-bullet-regexp'. It can be a regular
expression matching plain list bullets. When it matches, changing the
bullet type will introduce two spaces instead of one after each
bullet.
For example,
(setq org-list-two-spaces-after-bullet-regexp "[.)]")
will make two spaces after "1." and "1)".
This patch compacts the persistence code. It also make sure that no
variables outside Org's name space are created. Finally, it makes
sure that the resumed clock is not hidden after a restart of Emacs.
Saving the clock history and the running clock could lead to pointers
to non-existing buffer, or to dired buffers of directories. This
patch implements more consistency checks.
It also allows a new value for `org-clock-persist'. When this is
`clock', only the running clock, but not the entire clock history
is saved.
Commands that modify the bullet style of a plain list, or that
renumber such a list may lead to changes in the width of a bullet.
The indentation of the lines below such a bullet is now automatically
adapted.
Also fixes a bug in bullet style cycling.
This patch defines a new minor mode, `org-remember-mode', which is
turned on when Org-mode is used to handle a remember buffer. This
provides a safe way to modify keybindings (in
`org-remember-mode-map'), without overwriting keys in `org-mode-map'.
Since Org put remember buffers into Org-mode, remember-mode-map will
be entirely ignored.
do completion does not work well with values including white space,
which means we cannot use it in completion of values in remember
templates. This patch turns it off for this application.
Report by Richard Riley.
When ID's are created, Org tries to remember in which file the id is
located. However, if an ID is created in a remember buffer, no file
is known. This patch makes sure that this condition does not lead to
an error.
When an org-remember template inserts a property, the template-creating
function tries to support the user by retrieving a list of allowed
values to facilitate completion. So far this was done by getting the
property with inheritance, ignoring that the cursor in the target file
buffer may not be in an entry at all. So now we just look at the global
and file lists of allowed values.

I've been trying to work with links to man pages in
Org (using org-man.el). When I try to create a link to a
Perl module in the File package namespace, however,
`org-insert-link' tries to do its same-file link detection
and winds up breaking the link. The result is that the link
man:File::MimeInfo
gets rewritten to
file::MimeInfo
Naturally, this isn't what I want. Looking at
`org-insert-link', it seems that the problem may be that its
same-file link detection is matching 'file:' at
beginning-of-word, which it is in this case. In the general
case for which 'file:' detection is being used, is there a
reason to match against `\<' rather than `^' or
`^[[:space:]]*'? Changing to one of the latter two
expressions would, I believe, keep it From rewriting these
links I am trying to create.
Michael is right, and I have made this change.
The face `org-agenda-column-dateline' can be used to make datelines

A link to an image can function as the description part of a link, to
create a clickable image. The corresponding image tag was
erroneously processed like normal text. This patch protects such
descriptions from processing.
Reported by Richard Riley.
If you set the variable `org-completion-use-ido' to t, and if you have
ido-mode turned on, most instanced of completion in Org-mode will use
ido-complete.
Thanks to Samuel Wales and Eric Schulte for patches to this effect.
There was a bug in the implementation of the "<today>" tag for time
comparison during property matching, and new tags "<yesterday>" and
"<tomorrow>" have been introduced.

Org allows to define invisible anchors in a document in comment lines
like
If such a line is directly before or after a headline, previously this
anchor was removed, and all references to it were replaced with
references to the anchor that the headline had anyway.
Matthew Lundin pointed out that this makes it impossible to have
permanent links to headlines that can also be used from outside the
current page.
This patch changes his situation by adding the additional targets as
empty anchors to the section heading. If works by creating, during
preprocessing, an alist with targets that do have aliases. During
publishing, these aliases are looked up and converted into anchors.
In LaTeX export, these additional targets become additional labels.
The was a faulty regular expression in this function which never
matched, causing creation of a new picture area to mess up and start
the new area at the end of the previous line instead of the beginning
of the current.
Reported by Bernt Hansen.
This is a bugfix. When the number of headline levels was set to zero,
or if there was no heading at all in the export, the final closing
</div> should not be present.
This patch implements the possibility to translate links.
It can be useful if use both planner and Org-mode, if you sometimes
copy text from one side to the other and you do not want to worry
about link syntax. This patch allows links created with planner to
function correctly in Org-mode. I would probably be simple to
implement the reverse conversion in planner as well.
This patch is a first shot at this functionality and very likely can
be improved.
Org's `org-yank' now identifies itself as being `yank' by setting
`this-command', and by making sure that the mark is set correctly. In
this way, `yank-pop' will work correctly after using `C-y' in an
Org-mode buffer. Org-mode does not have its own implementation, to
`yank-pop' will insert content plainly, without adjusting tree levels,
and without folding.
Samuel Wales pointed out that `yank-pop' doe not work anymore.
iCalendar export has now improved compliance with RFC 2445.
Now all occurrences in data fields of the double quotes are replaced
by two single quotes, and any fields containing comma, colon, or
semicolon are quoted by surrounding them with double quotes.
Org sometimes hits a "Before first heading" error. This error happens
when `outline-back-to-heading' is called before the first heading in a
buffer. In normal use, this is something easy to fix, because of
course you know where you are and you can identify the problem.
However, when Org scans many different buffers, for example to collect
agenda entries, you may not be able to tell easily where this error
happened. This patch introduces a wrapper around
`outline-back-to-heading', with improving the error message by
spelling out buffer and location.
Georg C.F. Greve asked for configurable leaders strings for agenda
display of time ranges. This patch implements these strings, in the
new option `org-agenda-timerange-leaders'.
When an ASCII image is edited with C-c ', it will in the end be quoted
by prepending colons to each line. If tabulators are used in the
image, this may mess up the alignment. Since tabulators are not a
good idea in ASCII images anyway, this patch makes sure that any
tabulators are replaced by spaces.
Org-mode's `org-yank' command is used as a replacement for the normal
`yank' command. It differs by giving special treatment to subtrees or
sets of subtrees when yanking them, by adjusting the level to fit the
outline, and by folding the trees after the yank.
This patch does fine-tune this behavior.
First of all, if any prefix argument is given to the command, it
immediately hands over the action to the standard `yank' command. In
particular, you can use `C-u C-y' to yank as-is, with the only minor
side effect that the cursor will end up at the beginning of the yanked
text.
Secondly, the folding of the yanked trees will only happen if there is
no text directly after the insertion point that would be swallowed by
the folding process. This was confusing in the past and is much
better now, with a message announcing that folding has been
suppressed.

This changes the default value for Effort during agenda filtering so
that an undefined Effort value is treated as 0 instead of nil. Tasks
with no effort defined now return zero effort when selecting tasks for
the filter.
There was effectively no way to select 'tasks with no effort defined'
using the agenda effort filter. The '<' operator is interpreted as
'<=' and the default effort selection defined in
org-agenda-filter-by-tag starts with zero ("0 0:10 ...") so this
change just treats tasks with no effort defined the same as tasks with
an effort of 0.
This allows fast selection of NEXT tasks with no effort defined.
Column view with follow-mode active in the agenda is great for quickly
filling in the agenda estimated effort values for tasks. Just display
your Next tasks, then / 0 to select tasks with no effort and enter
column mode (C-c C-x C-c) and fill in your effort values with the
quick keys (0-9) for all of the tasks that have blanks in the effort
column.
The refile command allows to move a subtree to under some other
heading, in the current file or even in a different file.
Sometimes one has a number of sibling subtrees that should all be
refiled to the same location. This patch implements a simplification
for this process. You can mark the region of subtrees (using
transient-mark-mode in required for this) and then move them all with
a single command.
Org-mode produces summaries of clocked items in the form of Org-mode
tables. This patch implements the possibility to define formulas that
should be applied to the clock tables, in order to do additional
analysis.
Formulas for clock tables are supported in two ways.
First, a formula can simply be added by hand to a table. Part of this
patch makes sure that, when the previous version of the table contains
a #+TBLFM: line, it will be copied to the new version.
Secondly, the clocktable definition allows a new parameter
`:formula'. The string value of this parameter will be installed as
the formula line for the table. If a formula parameter is given, it
will overrule any previous formula line.
As a special case, using the symbol `%' as the formula will install a
formula that will compute the fraction of total time that was spent in
a subtree.
In both cases, the formulas will be immediately evaluated after the
table has been created.
Bernt Hansen recently reported that occasionally he got a newline
included with property values returned by `org-entry-get'. While the
reason for this is not understood (maybe some dark mingling with
character syntax), these new regexps are explicit about what they
interpret as a non-white character and therefore should make this
matching safer.
Jurgen Defume asked for a way to display only logging information in
the agenda. This patch implements such a possibility. It works by
calling `org-agenda-log-mode' (bound to `l' in the agenda) with a
double prefix arg. This sets the variable `org-agenda-show-log' to a
special value `only' which is then interpreted by the agenda-creating
functions.
When org-yank inserts a subtree, it moves the cursor to the headline
after the yank. A structural bug in the `org-yank' function did cause
this motion also to happen after a normal yank. Fixed now.
Matthew Lovell found that VM messages are only displayed reliably upon
following a link, when the function `vm-preview-current-message' is
called instead of `vm-beginning-of-message'. This patch implements
this change.
Links in the standard form [[link][description]] are allowed to have
brackets in them when these are escapes %5B and %5D. Creating links
through the Org link interface automatically does this conversion.
However, as noticed by Paul R, there is a bug when actually following
such links, when the link will be cut off at the first closing bracket
in the link.
This patch fixes this problem by adjusting the appropriate regexp.
This patch introduces two new functions in org-attach.el,
`org-attach-expand', and `org-attach-expand-link'. Both take a file
name as an argument, assume that this file is an attachment of the
current entry, and return the full path to this file or a
"file:..." link to it, respectively.
With these functions, it becomes very easy to use link abbreviations
to create a new link type to attachments:
After
(setq org-link-abbrev-alist '(("att" . org-attach-expand-link)))
links like [[att:file.txt]] will work.
Org records (depending on setup) various information about progress
achieved with projects and tasks. It can record when an item is done
(when it is "closed"), it can record time spent working on these
entries (clocking), and it can record state changes.
In the daily/weekly agenda, turning on logbook mode with the `l' key
will lists the tasks closed or clocked on a day.
This patch implements showing recorded state changes in the agenda
logbook. By default, showing state changes is not turned on. But you
can configure the new variable `org-agenda-log-mode-items' to trigger
inclusion of state changes. An alternative way is to press `C-u l' in
the agenda, to temporarily force inclusion of all possible entries
(closed, clock, state) into the agenda display.
In passing, this patch renames the function `org-agenda-get-closed' to
the now more appropriate `org-agenda-get-progress'. The old name
continues to be available as an alias, but its use is deprecated.
