Hi,
I am releasing version 5.19 of org-mode at
http://orgmode.org
Enjoy!
- Carsten
Changes in Version 5.19
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Overview
========
- Column view can list the clocked times of a subtree.
- Storing remember notes can use the `org-refile' interface.
- Storing remember notes no longer produced empty lines.
- Moving subtrees now folds all siblings of the subtree.
- New variable `org-agenda-todo-keyword-format'.
- Hack to allow brackets in link descriptions.
- Clocking into an entry can enforce a specific TODO state.
- EXPORT_FILE_NAME may be an absolute file name with "~".
- Bug fixes, lots of them.
Details
=======
- A new special column definition lists the sum of all CLOCK
entries in a subtree. For example
#+COLUMNS: %20ITEM %10Time_Estimate{:} %CLOCKSUM
will allow you to compare estimated times (as given in the
Time_Estimate property) with the clocked times. This was a
request by Bernt Hansen.
- Storing remember notes can now use the `org-refile'
interface instead of the `org-goto' interface (see the
variable `org-remember-use-refile-when-interactive').
Nothing will change if the note is stored immediately after
pressing `C-c C-c' in the `*Remember*' buffer. But if you
have chosen (e.g. by pressing `C-u C-c C-c') to
interactively select the filing location (file and
headline), the refile interface will be used instead. I am
excited about this change, because the `org-goto' interface
is basically a failure, at least for this application. Note
that in any case the refile interface has to be configured
first by customizing `org-refile-targets'.
- Notes inserted with remember now remove any whitespace
before and after the note before being pasted, so that there
will be no empty lines inserted together with the note. We
could invent special syntax in remember templates to allow
creating empty lines before a note - is there anyone who'd
want this?
- Moving subtrees now folds all siblings of the subtree. This
is the only reasonably simple way I could find to avoid the
reported inconsistencies in the folding state of the outline
tree after moving entries. There are reasons to like this
new behavior, because it easily visualizes where the tree is
located after the move. Still, not everyone might be happy
with this. Massive complaining would be needed to make me
fix this.
- New variable `org-agenda-todo-keyword-format' to specify the
width of the TODO keyword field in the agenda display. Use
it to get things to line up better. This was a proposal by
Rainer Stengele.
- If a link description inserted with `C-c C-l' contains
brackets, the brackets will now be converted into curly
braces. This looks similar enough. Supporting brackets in
link descriptions is, for technical reasons too long to
explain here, complex.
- The new option `org-clock-in-switch-to-state' can be set to
a TODO state that will be enforced when the clock is started
on an entry. This follows an idea by Sacha Chua.
- The EXPORT_FILE_NAME property may now also be an absolute
file name, and it may contain abbreviations like "~" for the
users home directory. This was requested by Adam Spiers.
- Bug fixes, lots of them.
