org-mode support on aquamacs?

org-mode support on aquamacs?

[David Kritzberg]

Hello Folks,

I use orgmode primarily with the emacs 22 that comes with ubuntu
gutsy.  But I also have a mac and use aquamacs for emacs on that
system.  Recently aquamacs came out with an upgrade (1.3), and around
the same time, I updated orgmode from 5.22 to 5.23a and then 6.00pre,
and now many key bindings do not seem to work.  Has anyone else had
this experience?

Thanks,
Dave

Hello Folks,

I use orgmode primarily with the emacs 22.1.1 that comes with ubuntu
Gutsy 7.10.  

Recent updates to orgmode seem to have "broken" a couple things I was
used to  in earlier versions:

1. the tab -- when editing text under a bullet previously, hitting the
tab key would auto-indent a line of text regardless of where the
cursor was in that line.  Now, I need to place the cursor at the
beginning of the line to do this, the same as I would do if I was
editing in some plain text mode.

2. when scheduling/re-scheduling dates in either agenda view or an
outline view, "C-c C-s fri" would re-schedule the event for the
upcoming Friday.  Now I can still do "C-c C-s +5" if Friday is in 5
days, but I have lost the 3-letter abbreviations for days of the week
in this context.

I wrote an earlier post describing the same behavior a couple weeks
ago, and at the time I was thinking it was an mac/aquamacs problem,
but now it has happened on putty/windows over ssh to my ubuntu machine
as well. 

Any feedback or suggestions would be appreciated.  Maybe I have
something in my .emacs that is in conflict with recent contributions
to the orgmode codebase?

Thanks,
Dave

I cannot reproduce this.  Can you make a test case and describe
your steps more accurately?  Do you have any configuration
on the variable `org-cycle-emulate-tab'?

This is a side effect of some other changes.  I agree that a plain
weekday abbreviation should be relative to today, not relative to the
default date (which in this case is the currently scheduled date
for the item.

I have fixed this in the GIT repo, to it will make its way
into the next release.  Thanks for catching this.

As a work-around until you get a better version, you can use "+fri".

No, I don't have any configuration related to org-cycle-emulate-tab.
Let me know if this works as a description: 
 
Say I write 

* this is an example
here is some te_

Now if my cursor is at the _ in the second line above, and I hit the
tab key, I would normally see this

* this is an example
  here is some te

But instead I see this
    
* this is an example
here is some te    _

Is that the kind of description you were looking for?
