Color entries according to assigned priority

Color entries according to assigned priority

[Uwe Ziegenhagen]

Hello,

is it possible to color the different entries in an org file according to
the priority assigned to them?

I'd like to have #a items in black and #b, #c and non-prioritized items in
gray tones.

See "color header based on priority/tags rather than level" on
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2014-01/msg00625.html.

I copied and pasted the given code, however I do not see any change. I'll
try my luck again tomorrow and will get back to you.

Just to be sure, did you eval the pasted code? And restarting org-mode
(M-x fundamental-mode M-x org-mode) could be necessary, too?

Yes, I did. I just ran some tests. Using only

;; Do not show welcome screen at startup
(setq inhibit-startup-message t)

;; just answer Emacs' question with 'y' or 'n' instead of 'yes'or 'no'
(defalias 'yes-or-no-p 'y-or-n-p)

;; Load org mode
(add-to-list 'load-path "G:/Programme/emacs-24.3/myLisp/org-8.2.4/lisp")

in my .emacs I get

If I use the code from the posting 

########################################

;; Load org mode
(add-to-list 'load-path "G:/Programme/emacs-24.3/myLisp/org-8.2.4/lisp")

(font-lock-add-keywords 'org-mode
  '(("^.*:write:.*$" . font-lock-keyword-face)))

(setq org-agenda-face-for-tagged-lines
   '(("write" . bold)))

(defun org-agenda-fontify-tagged-line ()
  "Use `org-agenda-face-for-tagged-lines' to fontify lines with certain tags."
  (goto-char (point-min))
  (let (tags)
    (while (progn (forward-line 1) (not (eobp)))
      (if (setq tags (get-text-property (point) 'tags))
          (mapcar
           (lambda (pair)
             (if (member (car pair) tags)
                 (add-text-properties (point-at-bol) (point-at-eol)
`(face,(cdr pair)))))
           org-agenda-face-for-tagged-lines)))))

(add-hook 'org-agenda-finalize-hook 'org-agenda-fontify-tagged-line)
#################################################

I get http://uweziegenhagen.de/gmane/gmane2.png

which is the same.

None of the tags in the screenshots is :write:. I do not understand,
what you expect to happen here.

To me this looks like something that applies to the agenda only.

Tagging a headline with the :write: tag and generating an agenda view
(e.g. C-c a t) should make those headlines bold.
