| 10 | ||
| 11 | * Version 9.1 | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | ** Incompatible changes | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | *** Variables relative to clocksum duration are obsolete | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | ~org-time-clocksum-format~, ~org-time-clocksum-use-fractional~ and | |
| 18 | ~org-time-clocksum-fractional-format~ are obsolete. If you changed | |
| 19 | them, consider modifying ~org-duration-format~ instead. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | Variable ~org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations~ is also obsolete. | |
| 22 | Consider setting ~org-duration-units~ instead. | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | *** ~org-at-timestamp-p~ optional argument accepts different values | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | See docstrings for the allowed values. For backward compatibility, | |
| 27 | ~(org-at-timestamp-p t)~ is still supported, but should be updated | |
| 28 | accordingly. | |
| 29 | ||
| 30 | *** ~org-capture-templates~ no longer accepts S-expressions as file names | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | Since functions are allowed there, a straightforward way to migrate | |
| 33 | is to turn, e.g., | |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | : (file (sexp)) | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | into | |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | : (file (lambda () (sexp))) | |
| 40 | ||
| 41 | *** Deleted contributed packages | |
| 42 | ||
| 43 | =org-ebib.el, =org-bullets.el= and =org-mime.el= have been deleted | |
| 44 | from the contrib/ directory. | |
| 45 | ||
| 46 | You can now find them here : | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | - https://github.com/joostkremers/ebib | |
| 49 | - https://github.com/sabof/org-bullets | |
| 50 | - https://github.com/org-mime/org-mime | |
| 51 | ||
| 52 | *** Change ~org-texinfo-classes~ value | |
| 53 | The value cannot support functions to create sectioning commands | |
| 54 | anymore. Also, the sectioning commands should include commands for | |
| 55 | appendices. See the docstring for more information. | |
| 56 | *** Removal of ~:sitemap-sans-extension~ | |
| 57 | ||
| 58 | The publishing property is no longer recognized, as a consequence of | |
| 59 | changes to site-map generation. | |
| 60 | ||
| 61 | You can get the same functionality by setting ~:sitemap-format-entry~ | |
| 62 | to the following | |
| 63 | ||
| 64 | #+BEGIN_SRC elisp | |
| 65 | (lambda (entry style project) | |
| 66 | (cond ((not (directory-name-p entry)) | |
| 67 | (format "[[file:%s][%s]]" | |
| 68 | (file-name-sans-extension entry) | |
| 69 | (org-publish-find-title entry project))) | |
| 70 | ((eq style 'tree) (file-name-nondirectory (directory-file-name entry))) | |
| 71 | (t entry))) | |
| 72 | #+END_SRC | |
| 73 | ||
| 74 | *** Change signature for ~:sitemap-function~ | |
| 75 | ||
| 76 | ~:sitemap-function~ now expects to be called with two arguments. See | |
| 77 | ~org-publish-project-alist~ for details. | |
| 78 | ||
| 79 | *** Change signature for some properties in ~org-list-to-generic~ | |
| 80 | ||
| 81 | ~:istart~, ~:icount~, ~:iend~ and ~:isep~ now expect the type of the | |
| 82 | list as their first argument. | |
| 83 | ||
| 84 | *** Change signature for ~org-get-repeater~ | |
| 85 | The optional argument is now a string to extract the repeater from. | |
| 86 | See docstring for details. | |
| 87 | ||
| 88 | *** Change signature for ~org-time-string-to-time~ | |
| 89 | See docstring for changes. | |
| 90 | ||
| 91 | *** Change order of items in ~org-agenda-time-grid~ | |
| 92 | ~org-agenda-time-grid~ gained an extra item to allow users to customize | |
| 93 | the string displayed after times in the agenda. See docstring for | |
| 94 | details. | |
| 95 | ||
| 96 | *** ~tags-todo~ custom searches now include DONE keywords | |
| 97 | ||
| 98 | Use "/!" markup when filtering TODO keywords to get only not-done TODO | |
| 99 | keywords. | |
| 100 | ||
| 101 | *** ~org-split-string~ returns ~("")~ when called on an empty string | |
| 102 | It used to return nil. | |
| 103 | *** Removal of =ob-scala.el= | |
| 104 | ||
| 105 | See [[https://github.com/ensime/emacs-scala-mode/issues/114][this github issue]]. | |
| 106 | ||
| 107 | You can use =ob-scala.el= as packaged in scala-mode, available from the | |
| 108 | MELPA repository. | |
| 109 | ||
| 110 | ** New features | |
| 111 | *** iCalendar export uses inheritance for TIMEZONE and LOCATION properties | |
| 112 | Both these properties can be inherited during iCalendar export, | |
| 113 | depending on the value of ~org-use-property-inheritance~. | |
| 114 | *** iCalendar export respects a TIMEZONE property | |
| 115 | Set the TIMEZONE property on an entry to specify a time zone for that | |
| 116 | entry only during iCalendar export. The property value should be | |
| 117 | specified as in "Europe/London". | |
| 118 | *** ~org-attach~ can move directory contents | |
| 119 | When setting a new directory for an entry, org-attach offers to move | |
| 120 | files over from the old directory. Using a prefix arg will reset the | |
| 121 | directory to old, ID based one. | |
| 122 | *** New Org duration library | |
| 123 | This new library implements tools to read and print time durations in | |
| 124 | various formats (e.g., "H:MM", or "1d 2h 3min"...). | |
| 125 | ||
| 126 | See ~org-duration-to-minutes~ and ~org-duration-from-minutes~ | |
| 127 | docstrings. | |
| 128 | ||
| 129 | *** Agenda | |
| 130 | **** New variable : ~org-agenda-show-future-repeats~ | |
| 131 | **** New variable : ~org-agenda-prefer-last-repeat~ | |
| 132 | **** New variable : ~org-deadline-past-days~ | |
| 133 | See docstring for details. | |
| 134 | **** Binding C-c C-x < for ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock-from-agenda~ | |
| 135 | **** New auto-align default setting for =org-agenda-tags-column= | |
| 136 | ||
| 137 | =org-agenda-tags-column= can now be set to =auto=, which will | |
| 138 | automatically align tags to the right edge of the window. This is now | |
| 139 | the default setting. | |
| 140 | ||
| 141 | *** New value for ~org-publish-sitemap-sort-folders~ | |
| 142 | ||
| 143 | The new ~ignore~ value effectively allows toggling inclusion of | |
| 144 | directories in published site-maps. | |
| 145 | ||
| 146 | *** Babel | |
| 147 | ||
| 148 | **** Scheme: support for tables | |
| 149 | **** Scheme: new variable: ~org-babel-scheme-null-to~ | |
| 150 | ||
| 151 | This new custom option allows you to use an empty list or null symbol to | |
| 152 | format the table output, initially assigned to ~hlines~. | |
| 153 | ||
| 154 | **** Scheme: new header ~:prologue~ | |
| 155 | ||
| 156 | A new block code header has been created for Org Babel that enables | |
| 157 | developers to prepend code to the scheme block being processed. | |
| 158 | ||
| 159 | Multiple ~:prologue~ headers can be added each of them using a string | |
| 160 | with the content to be added. | |
| 161 | ||
| 162 | The scheme blocks are prepared by surrounding the code in the block | |
| 163 | with a let form. The content of the ~:prologue~ headers are prepended | |
| 164 | before this let form. | |
| 165 | ||
| 166 | **** Support for hledger accounting reports added | |
| 167 | **** Clojure: new setting ~org-babel-clojure-sync-nrepl-timeout~ | |
| 168 | ||
| 169 | Creation of a new setting to specify the Cider timeout. By setting | |
| 170 | the =org-babel-clojure-sync-nrepl-timeout= setting option. The value | |
| 171 | is in seconds and if set to =nil= then no timeout will occur. | |
| 172 | **** Clojure: new header ~:show-process~ | |
| 173 | ||
| 174 | A new block code header has been created for Org Babel that enables | |
| 175 | developers to output the process of an ongoing process into a new | |
| 176 | window/buffer. | |
| 177 | ||
| 178 | You can tell Org Babel to output the process of a running code block. | |
| 179 | ||
| 180 | To show that output you only have to specify the =:show-process= | |
| 181 | option in the code block's header like this: | |
| 182 | ||
| 183 | #+begin_example | |
| 184 | ,#+BEGIN_SRC clojure :results output :show-process t | |
| 185 | (dotimes [n 10] | |
| 186 | (println n ".") | |
| 187 | (Thread/sleep 500)) | |
| 188 | ,#+END_SRC | |
| 189 | #+end_example | |
| 190 | ||
| 191 | If =:show-process= is specified that way, then when you will run the | |
| 192 | code using =C-c C-c= a new window will open in Emacs. Everything that | |
| 193 | is output by the REPL will immediately be added to that new window. | |
| 194 | ||
| 195 | When the processing of the code is finished, then the window and its | |
| 196 | buffer will be closed and the results will be reported in the | |
| 197 | =#+RESULTS= section. | |
| 198 | ||
| 199 | Note that the =:results= parameter's behavior is *not* changed. If | |
| 200 | =silent= is specified, then no result will be displayed. If =output= | |
| 201 | is specified then all the output from the window will appears in the | |
| 202 | results section. If =value= is specified, then only the last returned | |
| 203 | value of the code will be displayed in the results section. | |
| 204 | ||
| 205 | **** Maxima: new headers ~:prologue~ and ~:epilogue~ | |
| 206 | Babel options ~:prologue~ and ~:epilogue~ have been implemented for | |
| 207 | Maxima src blocks which prepend and append, respectively, the given | |
| 208 | code strings. This can be useful for specifying formatting settings | |
| 209 | which would add clutter to exported code. For instance, you can use | |
| 210 | this ~:prologue "fpprintprec: 2; linel: 50;"~ for presenting Maxima | |
| 211 | results in a beamer presentation. | |
| 212 | **** PlantUML: add support for header arguments | |
| 213 | ||
| 214 | [[http://plantuml.com/][Plantuml]] source blocks now support the [[https://orgmode.org/manual/prologue.html#prologue][~:prologue~]], [[https://orgmode.org/manual/epilogue.html#epilogue][~:epilogue~]] and | |
| 215 | [[https://orgmode.org/manual/var.html#var][~:var~]] header arguments. | |
| 216 | ||
| 217 | **** SQL: new engine added ~sqsh~ | |
| 218 | ||
| 219 | A new engine was added to support ~sqsh~ command line utility for use | |
| 220 | against Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase SQL server. | |
| 221 | ||
| 222 | More information on ~sqsh~ can be found here: [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/sqsh/][sourceforge/sqsh]] | |
| 223 | ||
| 224 | To use ~sqsh~ in an *sql* =SRC_BLK= set the =:engine= like this: | |
| 225 | ||
| 226 | #+begin_example | |
| 227 | ,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine sqsh :dbhost my_host :dbuser master :dbpassword pass :database support | |
| 228 | Select * From Users | |
| 229 | Where clue > 0 | |
| 230 | ,#+END_SRC | |
| 231 | #+end_example | |
| 232 | ||
| 233 | **** SQL: new engine added =vertica= | |
| 234 | ||
| 235 | A new engine was added to support vsql command line utility for use | |
| 236 | against HP Vertica. | |
| 237 | ||
| 238 | More information on =vsql= can be found here: [[https://my.vertica.com/docs/7.2.x/HTML/index.htm#Authoring/ConnectingToHPVertica/vsql/UsingVsql.htm][my.vertica.com]] | |
| 239 | ||
| 240 | To use =vertica= in an sql =SRC_BLK= set the =:engine= like this: | |
| 241 | ||
| 242 | #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE | |
| 243 | ,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine vertica :dbhost my_host :dbuser dbadmin :dbpassword pw :database vmart | |
| 244 | SELECT * FROM nodes; | |
| 245 | ,#+END_SRC | |
| 246 | #+END_EXAMPLE | |
| 247 | **** C++: New header ~:namespaces~ | |
| 248 | ||
| 249 | The new ~:namespaces~ export option can be used to specify namespaces | |
| 250 | to be used within a C++ org source block. Its usage is similar to | |
| 251 | ~:includes~, in that it can accept multiple, space-separated | |
| 252 | namespaces to use. This header is equivalent to adding ~using | |
| 253 | namespace <name>;~ in the source block. Here is a "Hello World" in C++ | |
| 254 | using ~:namespaces~: | |
| 255 | ||
| 256 | #+begin_example | |
| 257 | ,#+BEGIN_SRC C++ :results output :namespaces std :includes <iostream> | |
| 258 | cout << "Hello World" << endl; | |
| 259 | ,#+END_SRC | |
| 260 | #+end_example | |
| 261 | ||
| 262 | **** Support for Vala language | |
| 263 | ||
| 264 | [[https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Vala][Vala]] language blocks support two special header arguments: | |
| 265 | ||
| 266 | - ~:flags~ passes arguments to the compiler | |
| 267 | - ~:cmdline~ passes commandline arguments to the generated executable | |
| 268 | ||
| 269 | Support for [[https://orgmode.org/manual/var.html#var][~:var~]] does not exist yet, also there is no [[https://orgmode.org/manual/session.html#session][~:session~]] | |
| 270 | support because Vala is a compiled language. | |
| 271 | ||
| 272 | The Vala compiler binary can be changed via the ~defcustom~ | |
| 273 | ~org-babel-vala-compiler~. | |
| 274 | ||
| 275 | *** New ~function~ scope argument for the Clock Table | |
| 276 | Added a nullary function that returns a list of files as a possible | |
| 277 | argument for the scope of the clock table. | |
| 278 | *** Export | |
| 279 | **** Implement vernacular table of contents in Markdown exporter | |
| 280 | Global table of contents are generated using vanilla Markdown syntax | |
| 281 | instead of HTML. Also #+TOC keyword, including local table of | |
| 282 | contents, are now supported. | |
| 283 | **** Add Slovenian translations | |
| 284 | **** Implement ~org-export-insert-image-links~ | |
| 285 | This new function is meant to be used in back-ends supporting images | |
| 286 | as descriptions of links, a.k.a. image links. See its docstring for | |
| 287 | details. | |
| 288 | **** New macro : ~{{{n}}}~ | |
| 289 | This macro creates and increment multiple counters in a document. See | |
| 290 | manual for details. | |
| 291 | **** Add global macros through ~org-export-global-macros~ | |
| 292 | With this variable, one can define macros available for all documents. | |
| 293 | **** New keyword ~#+EXPORT_FILE_NAME~ | |
| 294 | Similarly to ~:EXPORT_FILE_NAME:~ property, this keyword allows the | |
| 295 | user to specify the name of the output file upon exporting the | |
| 296 | document. This also has an effect on publishing. | |
| 297 | **** Horizontal rules are no longer ignored in LaTeX table math mode | |
| 298 | **** Use ~compilation-mode~ for compilation output | |
| 299 | **** Plain lists accept a new ~:separator~ attribute in Texinfo | |
| 300 | ||
| 301 | The new ~:separator~ attribute splits a tag from a description list | |
| 302 | item into multiple parts. This allows to have two-column tables with | |
| 303 | multiple entries in the first column. See manual for more details. | |
| 304 | ||
| 305 | **** ~latex-environment~ elements support ~caption~ keywords for LaTeX export | |
| 306 | *** ~org-edit-special~ can edit LaTeX environments | |
| 307 | ||
| 308 | Using ~C-c '~ on a LaTeX environment opens a sub-editing buffer. By | |
| 309 | default, major mode in that buffer is ~latex-mode~, but it can be | |
| 310 | changed by configuring ~org-src-lang-modes~. | |
| 311 | ||
| 312 | *** ~org-list-to-generic~ includes a new property: ~:ifmt~ | |
| 313 | ||
| 314 | ~:ifmt~ is a function to be called on the body of each item. See | |
| 315 | ~org-list-to-generic~ documentation for details. | |
| 316 | ||
| 317 | *** New variable : ~org-bibtex-headline-format-function~ | |
| 318 | This allow to use a different title than entry title. | |
| 319 | ||
| 320 | *** ~org-attach~ supports attaching files from URLs | |
| 321 | ||
| 322 | Using ~C-c C-a u~ prompts for a URL pointing to a file to be attached | |
| 323 | to the document. | |
| 324 | ||
| 325 | *** New option for ~org-refile-use-outline-path~ | |
| 326 | ~org-refile-use-outline-path~ now supports the setting ~buffer-name~, | |
| 327 | which causes refile targets to be prefixed with the buffer’s | |
| 328 | name. This is particularly useful when used in conjunction with | |
| 329 | ~uniquify.el~. | |
| 330 | ||
| 331 | *** ~org-file-contents~ now allows the FILE argument to be a URL. | |
| 332 | This allows ~#+SETUPFILE:~ to accept a URL instead of a local file | |
| 333 | path. The URL contents are auto-downloaded and saved to a temporary | |
| 334 | cache ~org--file-cache~. A new optional argument ~NOCACHE~ is added | |
| 335 | to ~org-file-contents~. | |
| 336 | ||
| 337 | *** ~org-mode-restart~ now resets the newly added ~org--file-cache~. | |
| 338 | Using ~C-c C-c~ on any keyword (like ~#+SETUPFILE~) will reset the | |
| 339 | that file cache. | |
| 340 | ||
| 341 | *** New option : ~org-table-duration-hour-zero-padding~ | |
| 342 | This variable allow computed durations in tables to be zero-padded. | |
| 343 | ||
| 344 | *** New mode switch for table formulas : =U= | |
| 345 | This mode omits seconds in durations. | |
| 346 | ||
| 347 | ** Removed functions | |
| 348 | ||
| 349 | *** Org Timeline | |
| 350 | ||
| 351 | This feature has been removed. Use a custom agenda view, possibly | |
| 352 | narrowed to current buffer to achieve a similar functionality. | |
| 353 | ||
| 354 | *** ~org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches~ is obsolete | |
| 355 | ||
| 356 | Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead. | |
| 357 | ||
| 358 | *** ~org-agenda-skip-subtree-when-regexp-matches~ is obsolete | |
| 359 | ||
| 360 | Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead. | |
| 361 | ||
| 362 | *** ~org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches-in-subtree~ is obsolete | |
| 363 | ||
| 364 | Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead. | |
| 365 | ||
| 366 | *** ~org-minutes-to-clocksum-string~ is obsolete | |
| 367 | ||
| 368 | Use ~org-duration-from-minutes~ instead. | |
| 369 | ||
| 370 | *** ~org-hh:mm-string-to-minutes~ is obsolete | |
| 371 | ||
| 372 | Use ~org-duration-to-minutes~ instead. | |
| 373 | ||
| 374 | *** ~org-duration-string-to-minutes~ is obsolete | |
| 375 | ||
| 376 | Use ~org-duration-to-minutes~ instead. | |
| 377 | ||
| 378 | *** ~org-gnus-nnimap-cached-article-number~ is removed. | |
| 379 | ||
| 380 | This function relied on ~nnimap-group-overview-filename~, which was | |
| 381 | removed from Gnus circa September 2010. | |
| 382 | ||
| 383 | ** Removed options | |
| 384 | ||
| 385 | *** ~org-agenda-repeating-timestamp-show-all~ is removed. | |
| 386 | ||
| 387 | For an equivalent to a ~nil~ value, set | |
| 388 | ~org-agenda-show-future-repeats~ to nil and | |
| 389 | ~org-agenda-prefer-last-repeat~ to ~t~. | |
| 390 | ||
| 391 | *** ~org-gnus-nnimap-query-article-no-from-file~ is removed. | |
| 392 | ||
| 393 | This variable has no effect, as it was relying on a function that was | |
| 394 | removed from Gnus circa September 2010. | |
| 395 | ||
| 396 | *** ~org-usenet-links-prefer-google~ is obsolete. | |
| 397 | ||
| 398 | Use ~org-gnus-prefer-web-links~ instead. | |
| 399 | ||
| 400 | *** ~org-publish-sitemap-file-entry-format~ is deprecated | |
| 401 | ||
| 402 | One can provide new ~:sitemap-format-entry~ property for a function | |
| 403 | equivalent to the removed format string. | |
| 404 | ||
| 405 | *** ~org-enable-table-editor~ is removed. | |
| 406 | ||
| 407 | Setting it to a ~nil~ value broke some other features (e.g., speed | |
| 408 | keys). | |
| 409 | ||
| 410 | *** ~org-export-use-babel~ cannot be set to ~inline-only~ | |
| 411 | ||
| 412 | The variable is now a boolean. | |
| 413 | ||
| 414 | *** ~org-texinfo-def-table-markup~ is obsolete | |
| 415 | ||
| 416 | Use ~org-texinfo-table-default-markup~ instead. | |
| 417 | ||
| 418 | ** New functions | |
| 419 | ||
| 420 | *** ~org-publish-find-property~ | |
| 421 | ||
| 422 | This function can be used as a tool to format entries in a site-map, | |
| 423 | in addition to ~org-publish-find-title~ and ~org-publish-find-date~. | |
| 424 | ||
| 425 | *** ~org-list-to-org~ | |
| 426 | ||
| 427 | It is the reciprocal of ~org-list-to-lisp~, which see. | |
| 428 | ||
| 429 | *** ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock-from-agenda~ | |
| 430 | ||
| 431 | Call ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock~ from the agenda. | |
| 432 | ||
| 433 | ** Miscellaneous | |
| 434 | ||
| 435 | *** The Library of Babel now on Worg | |
| 436 | ||
| 437 | The library-of-babel.org used to be accessible from the =doc/= | |
| 438 | directory, distributed with Org’s core. It is now accessible | |

| 442 | ||
| 443 | *** Allow multiple columns view | |
| 444 | ||
| 445 | Columns view is not limited to a single buffer anymore. | |
| 446 | *** Org Attach obeys ~dired-dwim-target~ | |
| 447 | ||
| 448 | When a Dired buffer is opened next to the Org document being edited, | |
| 449 | the prompt for file to attach can start in the Dired buffer's | |
| 450 | directory if `dired-dwim-target' in non-nil. | |
| 451 | ||
| 452 | *** ~org-fill-paragraph~ can now fill a whole region | |
| 453 | *** More specific anniversary descriptions | |
| 454 | ||
| 455 | Anniversary descriptions (used in the agenda view, for instance) | |
| 456 | include the point in time, when the anniversary appears. This is, | |
| 457 | in its most general form, just the date of the anniversary. Or | |
| 458 | more specific terms, like "today", "tomorrow" or "in n days" are | |
| 459 | used to describe the time span. | |
| 460 | ||
| 461 | This feature allows to automatically change the description of an | |
| 462 | anniversary, depending on if it occurs in the next few days or | |
| 463 | far away in the future. | |
| 464 | ||
| 465 | *** Computed dates in tables appear as inactive time stamps | |
| 466 | ||
| 467 | *** Save point before opening a file with an unknown search option | |
| 468 | ||
| 469 | When following a file link with a search option (e.g., =::#custom-id=) | |
| 470 | that doesn't exist in the target file, save position before raising an | |
| 471 | error. As a consequence, it is possible to jump back to the original | |
| 472 | document with ~org-mark-ring-goto~ (default binding =C-c &=). | |
| 473 | ||
| 474 | *** ~org-get-heading~ accepts two more optional arguments | |
| 475 | ||
| 476 | See docstring for details. | |
| 477 | ||
| 478 | *** New option ~org-babel-uppercase-example-markers~ | |
| 479 | ||
| 480 | This variable is a ~defcustom~ and replaces the variable | |
| 481 | ~org-babel-capitalize-example-region-markers~, which is a ~defvar~ and | |
| 482 | is now obsolete. | |
| 483 | *** =INCLUDE= keywords in commented trees are now ignored. | |
| 484 | *** Default value for ~org-texinfo-text-markup-alist~ changed. | |
| 485 | ||
| 486 | Now ~=...=~ markup uses ~@samp{}~ instead of ~@verb{}~. You can use | |
| 487 | ~@verb{}~ again by customizing the variable. | |
| 488 | *** Texinfo exports example blocks as ~@example~ | |
| 489 | *** Texinfo exports inline src blocks as ~@code{}~ | |
| 490 | *** Texinfo default table markup is ~@asis~ | |
| 491 | It used to be ~@samp~ but ~@asis~ is neutral and, therefore, more | |
| 492 | suitable as a default value. | |
| 493 | *** Texinfo default process includes ~--no-split~ option | |
| 494 | *** New entities : ~\dollar~ and ~\USD~ | |
| 495 | *** Support for date style URLs in =org-protocol://open-source= | |
| 496 | URLs like =https://cool-blog.com/2017/05/20/cool-post/= are | |
| 497 | covered by rewrite rules. | |
| 498 | ||
| 499 | *** Add (C) =COMMENT= support to ~org-structure-template-alist~ | |
| 500 | ||
| 501 | * Version 9.0 | |
| 502 | ||
| 503 | ** Incompatible changes | |
| 504 | ||
| 505 | *** Emacs 23 support has been dropped | |
| 506 | ||
| 507 | From now on, Org expects at least Emacs 24.3, although Emacs 24.4 or | |
| 508 | above is suggested. | |
| 509 | ||
| 510 | *** XEmacs support has been dropped | |
| 511 | ||
| 512 | Incomplete compatibility layer with XEmacs has been removed. If you | |
| 513 | want to take over maintenance of this compatibility, please contact | |
| 514 | our mailing list. | |
| 515 | ||
| 516 | *** New syntax for export blocks | |
| 517 | ||
| 518 | Export blocks are explicitly marked as such at the syntax level to | |
| 519 | disambiguate their parsing from special blocks. The new syntax is | |
| 520 | ||
| 521 | #+BEGIN_SRC org | |
| 522 | ,#+BEGIN_EXPORT backend | |
| 523 | ... | |
| 524 | ,#+END_EXPORT | |
| 525 | #+END_SRC | |
| 526 | ||
| 527 | instead of | |
| 528 | ||
| 529 | #+BEGIN_SRC org | |
| 530 | ,#+BEGIN_backend | |
| 531 | ... | |
| 532 | ,#+END_backend | |
| 533 | #+END_SRC | |
| 534 | ||
| 535 | As a consequence, =INCLUDE= keywords syntax is modified, e.g., | |
| 536 | ||
| 537 | #+BEGIN_SRC org | |
| 538 | ,#+INCLUDE: "file.org" HTML | |
| 539 | #+END_SRC | |
| 540 | ||
| 541 | becomes | |
| 542 | ||
| 543 | #+BEGIN_SRC org | |
| 544 | ,#+INCLUDE: "file.org" export html | |
| 545 | #+END_SRC | |
| 546 | ||
| 547 | The following function repairs export blocks and =INCLUDE= keywords | |
| 548 | using previous syntax: | |
| 549 | ||
| 550 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp | |
| 551 | (defun org-repair-export-blocks () | |
| 552 | "Repair export blocks and INCLUDE keywords in current buffer." | |
| 553 | (interactive) | |
| 554 | (when (eq major-mode 'org-mode) | |
| 555 | (let ((case-fold-search t) | |
| 556 | (back-end-re (regexp-opt | |
| 557 | '("HTML" "ASCII" "LATEX" "ODT" "MARKDOWN" "MD" "ORG" | |
| 558 | "MAN" "BEAMER" "TEXINFO" "GROFF" "KOMA-LETTER") | |
| 559 | t))) | |
| 560 | (org-with-wide-buffer | |
| 561 | (goto-char (point-min)) | |
| 562 | (let ((block-re (concat "^[ \t]*#\\+BEGIN_" back-end-re))) | |
| 563 | (save-excursion | |
| 564 | (while (re-search-forward block-re nil t) | |
| 565 | (let ((element (save-match-data (org-element-at-point)))) | |
| 566 | (when (eq (org-element-type element) 'special-block) | |
| 567 | (save-excursion | |
| 568 | (goto-char (org-element-property :end element)) | |
| 569 | (save-match-data (search-backward "_")) | |
| 570 | (forward-char) | |
| 571 | (insert "EXPORT") | |
| 572 | (delete-region (point) (line-end-position))) | |
| 573 | (replace-match "EXPORT \\1" nil nil nil 1)))))) | |
| 574 | (let ((include-re | |
| 575 | (format "^[ \t]*#\\+INCLUDE: .*?%s[ \t]*$" back-end-re))) | |
| 576 | (while (re-search-forward include-re nil t) | |
| 577 | (let ((element (save-match-data (org-element-at-point)))) | |
| 578 | (when (and (eq (org-element-type element) 'keyword) | |
| 579 | (string= (org-element-property :key element) "INCLUDE")) | |
| 580 | (replace-match "EXPORT \\1" nil nil nil 1))))))))) | |
| 581 | #+END_SRC | |
| 582 | ||
| 583 | Moreover, ~:export-block~ keyword used in ~org-export-define-backend~ and | |
| 584 | ~org-export-define-derived-backend~ is no longer used and needs to be | |
| 585 | removed. | |
| 586 | ||
| 587 | *** Footnotes | |
| 588 | ||
| 589 | **** [1]-like constructs are not valid footnotes | |
| 590 | ||
| 591 | Using =[1]= as a footnote was already discouraged in the manual, since | |
| 592 | it introduced too many false-positives in many Org documents. These | |
| 593 | constructs are now unsupported. | |
| 594 | ||
| 595 | If you used =[N]= in some of your documents, consider turning them into | |
| 596 | =[fn:N]=. | |
| 597 | ||
| 598 | **** /Org Footnote/ library doesn't handle non-Org buffers | |
| 599 | ||
| 600 | Commands for footnotes in an Org document no longer try to do | |
| 601 | something in non-Org ones. If you need to have footnotes there, | |
| 602 | consider using the =footnote.el= library, shipped with Emacs. | |
| 603 | ||
| 604 | In particular, ~org-footnote-tag-for-non-org-mode-files~ no longer | |
| 605 | exists. | |
| 606 | ||
| 607 | *** ~org-file-apps~ no longer accepts S-expressions as commands | |
| 608 | ||
| 609 | The variable now accepts functions of two arguments instead of plain | |
| 610 | S-expressions. Replacing an S-expression with an appropriate function | |
| 611 | is straightforward. For example | |
| 612 | ||
| 613 | : ("pdf" . (foo)) | |
| 614 | ||
| 615 | becomes | |
| 616 | ||
| 617 | : ("pdf" . (lambda (file link) (foo))) | |
| 618 | ||
| 619 | *** The ~{{{modification-time}}}~ macro can get time via =vc= | |
| 620 | ||
| 621 | The modification time will be determined via =vc.el= if the second | |
| 622 | argument is non-nil. See the manual for details. | |
| 623 | ||
| 624 | *** Preparation and completion functions in publishing projects change signature | |
| 625 | ||
| 626 | Preparation and completion functions are now called with an argument, | |
| 627 | which is the project property list. It used to be dynamically scoped | |
| 628 | through the ~project-plist~ variable. | |
| 629 | ||
| 630 | *** Old Babel header properties are no longer supported | |
| 631 | ||
| 632 | Using header arguments as property names is no longer possible. As | |
| 633 | such, the following | |
| 634 | ||
| 635 | #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE | |
| 636 | ,* Headline | |
| 637 | :PROPERTIES: | |
| 638 | :exports: code | |
| 639 | :var: a=1 b=2 | |
| 640 | :var+: c=3 | |
| 641 | :END: | |
| 642 | #+END_EXAMPLE | |
| 643 | ||
| 644 | should be written instead | |
| 645 | ||
| 646 | #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE | |
| 647 | ,* Headline | |
| 648 | :PROPERTIES: | |
| 649 | :header-args: :exports code | |
| 650 | :header-args+: :var a=1 b=2 | |
| 651 | :header-args+: :var c=3 | |
| 652 | :END: | |
| 653 | #+END_EXAMPLE | |
| 654 | ||
| 655 | Please note that, however, old properties were defined at the source | |
| 656 | block definition. Current ones are defined where the block is called. | |
| 657 | ||
| 658 | ** New features | |
| 659 | ||
| 660 | *** ~org-eww~ has been moved into core | |
| 661 | *** New org-protocol key=value syntax | |
| 662 | ||
| 663 | Org-protocol can now handle query-style parameters such as: | |
| 664 | ||
| 665 | #+begin_example | |
| 666 | org-protocol://store-link?url=http:%2F%2Flocalhost%2Findex.html&title=The%20title | |
| 667 | org-protocol://capture?template=x&title=Hello&body=World&url=http:%2F%2Fexample.com | |
| 668 | #+end_example | |
| 669 | ||
| 670 | Old-style links such as | |
| 671 | : org-protocol://store-link:/http:%2F%2Flocalhost%2Findex.html/The%20title | |
| 672 | continue to be supported. | |
| 673 | ||
| 674 | If you have defined your own handler functions for | |
| 675 | ~org-protocol-protocol-alist~, change them to accept either a property | |
| 676 | list (for new-style links) or a string (for old-style links). Use | |
| 677 | ~org-protocol-parse-parameters~ to convert old-style links into property | |
| 678 | lists. | |
| 679 | ||
| 680 | *** New Org linter library | |
| 681 | ||
| 682 | ~org-lint~ can check syntax and report common issues in Org documents. | |
| 683 | ||
| 684 | *** New option ~date-tree-last~ for ~org-agenda-insert-diary-strategy~ | |
| 685 | ||
| 686 | When ~org-agenda-insert-diary-strategy~ is set to ~date-tree-last~, diary | |
| 687 | entries are added to last in the date tree. | |
| 688 | ||
| 689 | *** New ~vbar~ entity | |
| 690 | ||
| 691 | ~\vbar~ or ~\vbar{}~ will be exported unconditionally as a =|=, | |
| 692 | unlike to existing ~\vert~, which is expanded as ~|~ when using | |
| 693 | a HTML derived export back-end. | |
| 694 | ||
| 695 | *** Export | |
| 696 | ||
| 697 | **** New =#+latex_compiler= keyword to set LaTeX compiler. | |
| 698 | ||
| 699 | PDFLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and LuaLaTeX are supported. See the manual for | |
| 700 | details. | |
| 701 | ||
| 702 | **** New option ~org-export-with-broken-links~ | |
| 703 | ||
| 704 | This option tells the export process how to behave when encountering | |
| 705 | a broken internal link. See its docstring for more information. | |
| 706 | ||
| 707 | **** Attributes support in custom language environments for LaTeX export | |
| 708 | ||
| 709 | Custom language environments for LaTeX export can now define the | |
| 710 | string to be inserted during export, using attributes to indicate the | |
| 711 | position of the elements. See variable ~org-latex-custom-lang-environments~ | |
| 712 | for more details. | |
| 713 | ||
| 714 | **** New Texinfo ~options~ attribute on special blocks | |
| 715 | ||
| 716 | Using ~:options~ as a Texinfo attribute, it is possible to add | |
| 717 | information to custom environments. See manual for details. | |
| 718 | ||
| 719 | **** New HTML ~id~ attributes on special, example and quote blocks | |
| 720 | ||
| 721 | If the block has a =#+NAME:= attribute assigned, then the HTML element | |
| 722 | will have an ~id~ attribute with that name in the HTML export. This | |
| 723 | enables one to create links to these elements in other places, e.g., | |
| 724 | ~<a href="#name">text</a>~. | |
| 725 | ||
| 726 | **** Listings with captions are now numbered in HTML export | |
| 727 | ||
| 728 | The class associated to the numbering is "listing-number". If you | |
| 729 | don't want these blocks to be numbered, as it was the case until now, | |
| 730 | You may want to add ~.listing-number { display: none; }~ to the CSS | |
| 731 | used. | |
| 732 | ||
| 733 | **** Line Numbering in SRC/EXAMPLE blocks support arbitrary start number | |
| 734 | ||
| 735 | The ~-n~ option to ~SRC~ and ~EXAMPLE~ blocks can now take a numeric | |
| 736 | argument to specify the staring line number for the source or example | |
| 737 | block. The ~+n~ option can now take a numeric argument that will be | |
| 738 | added to the last line number from the previous block as the starting | |
| 739 | point for the SRC/EXAMPLE block. | |
| 740 | ||
| 741 | #+BEGIN_SRC org | |
| 742 | ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp -n 20 | |
| 743 | ;; this will export with line number 20 | |
| 744 | (message "This is line 21") | |
| 745 | ,#+END_SRC | |
| 746 | ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp +n 10 | |
| 747 | ;; This will be listed as line 31 | |
| 748 | (message "This is line 32") | |
| 749 | ,#+END_SRC | |
| 750 | #+END_SRC | |
| 751 | ||
| 752 | **** Allow toggling center for images in LaTeX export | |
| 753 | ||
| 754 | With the global variable ~org-latex-images-centered~ or the local | |
| 755 | attribute ~:center~ it is now possible to center an image in LaTeX | |
| 756 | export. | |
| 757 | ||
| 758 | **** Default CSS class ~org-svg~ for SVG images in HTML export | |
| 759 | ||
| 760 | SVG images exported in HTML are now by default assigned a CSS class | |
| 761 | ~org-svg~ if no CSS class is specified with the ~:class~ attribute. By | |
| 762 | default, the CSS styling of class ~org-svg~ specifies an image width of | |
| 763 | 90\thinsp{}% of the container the image. | |
| 764 | ||
| 765 | **** Markdown footnote export customization | |
| 766 | ||
| 767 | Variables ~org-md-footnotes-section~ and ~org-md-footnote-format~ | |
| 768 | introduced for =ox-md.el=. Both new variables define template strings | |
| 769 | which can be used to customize the format of the exported footnotes | |
| 770 | section and individual footnotes, respectively. | |
| 771 | ||
| 772 | *** Babel | |
| 773 | ||
| 774 | **** Blocks with coderefs labels can now be evaluated | |
| 775 | ||
| 776 | The labels are removed prior to evaluating the block. | |
| 777 | ||
| 778 | **** Support for Lua language | |
| 779 | **** Support for SLY in Lisp blocks | |
| 780 | ||
| 781 | See ~org-babel-lisp-eval-fn~ to activate it. | |
| 782 | ||
| 783 | **** Support for Stan language | |
| 784 | ||
| 785 | New ob-stan.el library. | |
| 786 | ||
| 787 | Evaluating a Stan block can produce two different results. | |
| 788 | ||
| 789 | 1. Dump the source code contents to a file. | |
| 790 | ||
| 791 | This file can then be used as a variable in other blocks, which | |
| 792 | allows interfaces like RStan to use the model. | |
| 793 | ||
| 794 | 2. Compile the contents to a model file. | |
| 795 | ||
| 796 | This provides access to the CmdStan interface. To use this, set | |
| 797 | ~org-babel-stan-cmdstan-directory~ and provide a ~:file~ argument | |
| 798 | that does not end in ".stan". | |
| 799 | ||
| 800 | For more information and usage examples, visit | |
| 801 | https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-stan.html | |
| 802 | ||
| 803 | **** Support for Oracle databases via ~sqlplus~ | |
| 804 | ||
| 805 | =ob-sql= library supports running SQL blocks against an Oracle | |
| 806 | database using ~sqlplus~. Use with properties like this (all | |
| 807 | mandatory): | |
| 808 | ||
| 809 | #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE | |
| 810 | :engine oracle | |
| 811 | :dbhost <host.com> | |
| 812 | :dbport <1521> | |
| 813 | :dbuser <username> | |
| 814 | :database <database> | |
| 815 | :dbpassword <secret> | |
| 816 | #+END_EXAMPLE | |
| 817 | ||
| 818 | **** Improved support to Microsoft SQL Server via ~sqlcmd~ | |
| 819 | ||
| 820 | =ob-sql= library removes support to the ~msosql~ engine which uses the | |
| 821 | deprecated ~osql~ command line tool, and replaces it with ~mssql~ | |
| 822 | engine which uses the ~sqlcmd~ command line tool. Use with properties | |
| 823 | like this: | |
| 824 | ||
| 825 | #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE | |
| 826 | :engine mssql | |
| 827 | :dbhost <host.com> | |
| 828 | :dbuser <username> | |
| 829 | :dbpassword <secret> | |
| 830 | :database <database> | |
| 831 | #+END_EXAMPLE | |
| 832 | ||
| 833 | If you want to use the *trusted connection* feature, omit *both* the | |
| 834 | =dbuser= and =dbpassword= properties and add =cmdline -E= to the properties. | |
| 835 | ||
| 836 | If your Emacs is running in a Cygwin environment, the =ob-sql= library | |
| 837 | can pass the converted path to the =sqlcmd= tool. | |
| 838 | ||
| 839 | **** Improved support of header arguments for postgresql | |
| 840 | ||
| 841 | The postgresql engine in a sql code block supports now ~:dbport~ nd | |
| 842 | ~:dbpassword~ as header arguments. | |
| 843 | ||
| 844 | **** Support for additional plantuml output formats | |
| 845 | ||
| 846 | The support for output formats of [[http://plantuml.com/][plantuml]] has been extended to now | |
| 847 | include: | |
| 848 | ||
| 849 | All Diagrams: | |
| 850 | - png :: | |
| 851 | - svg :: | |
| 852 | - eps :: | |
| 853 | - pdf :: | |
| 854 | - vdx :: | |
| 855 | - txt :: ASCII art | |
| 856 | - utxt :: ASCII art using unicode characters | |
| 857 | ||
| 858 | Class Diagrams: | |
| 859 | - xmi :: | |
| 860 | - html :: | |
| 861 | ||
| 862 | State Diagrams: | |
| 863 | - scxml :: | |
| 864 | ||
| 865 | The output formats are determined by the file extension specified | |
| 866 | using the :file property, e.g.: | |
| 867 | ||
| 868 | #+begin_src plantuml :file diagram.png | |
| 869 | @startuml | |
| 870 | Alice -> Bob: Authentication Request | |
| 871 | Bob --> Alice: Authentication Response | |
| 872 | ||
| 873 | Alice -> Bob: Another authentication Request | |
| 874 | Alice <-- Bob: another authentication Response | |
| 875 | @enduml | |
| 876 | #+end_src | |
| 877 | ||
| 878 | Please note that *pdf* *does not work out of the box* and needs additional | |
| 879 | setup in addition to plantuml. See [[http://plantuml.com/pdf.html]] for | |
| 880 | details and setup information. | |
| 881 | ||
| 882 | *** Rewrite of radio lists | |
| 883 | ||
| 884 | Radio lists, i.e, Org plain lists in foreign buffers, have been | |
| 885 | rewritten to be on par with Radio tables. You can use a large set of | |
| 886 | parameters to control how a given list should be rendered. See manual | |
| 887 | for details. | |
| 888 | ||
| 889 | *** org-bbdb-anniversaries-future | |
| 890 | ||
| 891 | Used like ~org-bbdb-anniversaries~, it provides a few days warning for | |
| 892 | upcoming anniversaries (default: 7 days). | |
| 893 | ||
| 894 | *** Clear non-repeated SCHEDULED upon repeating a task | |
| 895 | ||
| 896 | If the task is repeated, and therefore done at least one, scheduling | |
| 897 | information is no longer relevant. It is therefore removed. | |
| 898 | ||
| 899 | See [[git:481719fbd5751aaa9c672b762cb43aea8ee986b0][commit message]] for more information. | |
| 900 | ||
| 901 | *** Support for ISO week trees | |
| 902 | ||
| 903 | ISO week trees are an alternative date tree format that orders entries | |
| 904 | by ISO week and not by month. | |
| 905 | ||
| 906 | For example: | |
| 907 | ||
| 908 | : * 2015 | |
| 909 | : ** 2015-W35 | |
| 910 | : ** 2015-W36 | |
| 911 | : *** 2015-08-31 Monday | |
| 912 | ||
| 913 | They are supported in org-capture via ~file+weektree~ and | |
| 914 | ~file+weektree+prompt~ target specifications. | |
| 915 | ||
| 916 | *** Accept ~:indent~ parameter when capturing column view | |
| 917 | ||
| 918 | When defining a "columnview" dynamic block, it is now possible to add | |
| 919 | an :indent parameter, much like the one in the clock table. | |
| 920 | ||
| 921 | On the other hand, stars no longer appear in an ITEM field. | |
| 922 | ||
| 923 | *** Columns view | |
| 924 | ||
| 925 | **** ~org-columns~ accepts a prefix argument | |
| 926 | ||
| 927 | When called with a prefix argument, ~org-columns~ apply to the whole | |
| 928 | buffer unconditionally. | |
| 929 | ||
| 930 | **** New variable : ~org-agenda-view-columns-initially~ | |
| 931 | ||
| 932 | The variable used to be a ~defvar~, it is now a ~defcustom~. | |
| 933 | ||
| 934 | **** Allow custom summaries | |
| 935 | ||
| 936 | It is now possible to add new summary types, or override those | |
| 937 | provided by Org by customizing ~org-columns-summary-types~, which see. | |
| 938 | ||
| 939 | **** Allow multiple summaries for any property | |
| 940 | ||
| 941 | Columns can now summarize the same property using different summary | |
| 942 | types. | |
| 943 | ||
| 944 | *** Preview LaTeX snippets in buffers not visiting files | |
| 945 | *** New option ~org-attach-commit~ | |
| 946 | ||
| 947 | When non-nil, commit attachments with git, assuming the document is in | |
| 948 | a git repository. | |
| 949 | ||
| 950 | *** Allow conditional case-fold searches in ~org-occur~ | |
| 951 | ||
| 952 | When set to ~smart~, the new variable ~org-occur-case-fold-search~ allows | |
| 953 | to mimic =isearch.el=: if the regexp searched contains any upper case | |
| 954 | character (or character class), the search is case sensitive. | |
| 955 | Otherwise, it is case insensitive. | |
| 956 | ||
| 957 | *** More robust repeated =ox-latex= footnote handling | |
| 958 | ||
| 959 | Repeated footnotes are now numbered by referring to a label in the | |
| 960 | first footnote. | |
| 961 | ||
| 962 | *** The ~org-block~ face is inherited by ~src-blocks~ | |
| 963 | ||
| 964 | This works also when =org-src-fontify-natively= is non-nil. It is also | |
| 965 | possible to specify per-languages faces. See =org-src-block-faces= and | |
| 966 | the manual for details. | |
| 967 | ||
| 968 | *** Links are now customizable | |
| 969 | ||
| 970 | Links can now have custom colors, tooltips, keymaps, display behavior, | |
| 971 | etc. Links are now centralized in ~org-link-parameters~. | |
| 972 | ||
| 973 | ** New functions | |
| 974 | ||
| 975 | *** ~org-next-line-empty-p~ | |
| 976 | ||
| 977 | It replaces the deprecated ~next~ argument to ~org-previous-line-empty-p~. | |
| 978 | ||
| 979 | *** ~org-show-children~ | |
| 980 | ||
| 981 | It is a faster implementation of ~outline-show-children~. | |
| 982 | ||
| 983 | ** Removed functions | |
| 984 | ||
| 985 | *** ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag-refine~ has been removed. | |
| 986 | ||
| 987 | Use ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~ instead. | |
| 988 | ||
| 989 | *** ~org-agenda-todayp~ is deprecated. | |
| 990 | ||
| 991 | Use ~org-agenda-today-p~ instead. | |
| 992 | ||
| 993 | *** ~org-babel-get-header~ is removed. | |
| 994 | ||
| 995 | Use ~org-babel--get-vars~ or ~assq~ instead, as applicable. | |
| 996 | ||
| 997 | *** ~org-babel-trim~ is deprecated. | |
| 998 | ||
| 999 | Use ~org-trim~ instead. | |
| 1000 | ||
| 1001 | *** ~org-element-remove-indentation~ is deprecated. | |
| 1002 | ||
| 1003 | Use ~org-remove-indentation~ instead. | |
| 1004 | ||
| 1005 | *** ~org-image-file-name-regexp~ is deprecated | |
| 1006 | ||
| 1007 | Use ~image-file-name-regexp~ instead. | |
| 1008 | The never-used-in-core ~extensions~ argument has been dropped. | |
| 1009 | ||
| 1010 | *** ~org-list-parse-list~ is deprecated | |
| 1011 | ||
| 1012 | Use ~org-list-to-lisp~ instead. | |
| 1013 | ||
| 1014 | *** ~org-on-heading-p~ is deprecated | |
| 1015 | ||
| 1016 | A comment to this effect was in the source code since 7.8.03, but | |
| 1017 | now a byte-compiler warning will be generated as well. | |
| 1018 | ||
| 1019 | *** ~org-table-p~ is deprecated | |
| 1020 | ||
| 1021 | Use ~org-at-table-p~ instead. | |
| 1022 | ||
| 1023 | *** ~org-table-recognize-table.el~ is deprecated | |
| 1024 | ||
| 1025 | It was not called by any org code since 2010. | |
| 1026 | ||
| 1027 | *** Various reimplementations of cl-lib functions are deprecated | |
| 1028 | ||
| 1029 | The affected functions are: | |
| 1030 | - ~org-count~ | |
| 1031 | - ~org-remove-if~ | |
| 1032 | - ~org-remove-if-not~ | |
| 1033 | - ~org-reduce~ | |
| 1034 | - ~org-every~ | |
| 1035 | - ~org-some~ | |
| 1036 | ||
| 1037 | Additionally, ~org-sublist~ is deprecated in favor of ~cl-subseq~. Note | |
| 1038 | the differences in indexing conventions: ~org-sublist~ is 1-based and | |
| 1039 | end-inclusive; ~cl-subseq~ is 0-based and end-exclusive. | |
| 1040 | ||
| 1041 | ** Removed options | |
| 1042 | ||
| 1043 | *** Remove all options related to ~ido~ or ~iswitchb~ | |
| 1044 | ||
| 1045 | This includes ~org-completion-use-iswitchb~ and ~org-completion-use-ido~. | |
| 1046 | Instead Org uses regular functions, e.g., ~completion-read~ so as to | |
| 1047 | let those libraries operate. | |
| 1048 | ||
| 1049 | *** Remove ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~ | |
| 1050 | ||
| 1051 | Two consecutive blank lines always terminate all levels of current | |
| 1052 | plain list. | |
| 1053 | ||
| 1054 | *** ~fixltx2e~ is removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~ | |
| 1055 | ||
| 1056 | fixltx2e is obsolete, see LaTeX News 22. | |
| 1057 | ||
| 1058 | ** Miscellaneous | |
| 1059 | *** Add Icelandic smart quotes | |
| 1060 | *** Allow multiple receiver locations in radio tables and lists | |
| 1061 | *** Allow angular links within link descriptions | |
| 1062 | ||
| 1063 | It is now allowed to write, e.g., | |
| 1064 | ~[[http:orgmode.org][<file:unicorn.png>]]~ as an equivalent to | |
| 1065 | ~[[http:orgmode.org][file:unicorn.png]]~. The advantage of the former | |
| 1066 | is that spaces are allowed within the path. | |
| 1067 | ||
| 1068 | *** Beamer export back-ends uses ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~ | |
| 1069 | *** ~:preparation-function~ called earlier during publishing | |
| 1070 | ||
| 1071 | Functions in this list are called before any file is associated to the | |
| 1072 | current project. Thus, they can be used to generate to be published | |
| 1073 | Org files. | |
| 1074 | ||
| 1075 | *** Function ~org-remove-indentation~ changes. | |
| 1076 | ||
| 1077 | The new algorithm doesn't remove TAB characters not used for | |
| 1078 | indentation. | |
| 1079 | ||
| 1080 | *** Secure placeholders in capture templates | |
| 1081 | ||
| 1082 | Placeholders in capture templates are no longer expanded recursively. | |
| 1083 | However, ~%(...)~ constructs are expanded very late, so you can fill | |
| 1084 | the contents of the S-exp with the replacement text of non-interactive | |
| 1085 | placeholders. As before, interactive ones are still expanded as the | |
| 1086 | very last step, so the previous statement doesn't apply to them. | |
| 1087 | ||
| 1088 | Note that only ~%(...)~ placeholders initially present in the | |
| 1089 | template, or introduced using a file placeholder, i.e., ~%[...]~ are | |
| 1090 | expanded. This prevents evaluating potentially malicious code when | |
| 1091 | another placeholder, e.g., ~%i~ expands to a S-exp. | |
| 1092 | ||
| 1093 | *** Links stored by ~org-gnus-store-link~ in nnir groups | |
| 1094 | ||
| 1095 | Since gnus nnir groups are temporary, ~org-gnus-store-link~ now refers | |
| 1096 | to the article's original group. | |
| 1097 | ||
| 1098 | *** ~org-babel-check-confirm-evaluate~ is now a function instead of a macro | |
| 1099 | ||
| 1100 | The calling convention has changed. | |
| 1101 | ||
| 1102 | *** HTML export table row customization changes | |
| 1103 | ||
| 1104 | Variable ~org-html-table-row-tags~ has been split into | |
| 1105 | ~org-html-table-row-open-tag~ and ~org-html-table-row-close-tag~. | |
| 1106 | Both new variables can be either a string or a function which will be | |
| 1107 | called with 6 parameters. | |
| 1108 | ||
| 1109 | *** =ITEM= special property returns headline without stars | |
| 1110 | *** Rename ~org-insert-columns-dblock~ into ~org-columns-insert-dblock~ | |
| 1111 | ||
| 1112 | The previous name is, for the time being, kept as an obsolete alias. | |
| 1113 | ||
| 1114 | *** ~org-trim~ can preserve leading indentation. | |
| 1115 | ||
| 1116 | When setting a new optional argument to a non-nil value, ~org-trim~ | |
| 1117 | preserves leading indentation while removing blank lines at the | |
| 1118 | beginning of the string. The behavior is identical for white space at | |
| 1119 | the end of the string. | |
| 1120 | ||
| 1121 | *** Function ~org-info-export~ changes. | |
| 1122 | ||
| 1123 | HTML links created from certain info links now point to =gnu.org= URL's rather | |
| 1124 | than just to local files. For example info links such as =info:emacs#List | |
| 1125 | Buffers= used to be converted to HTML links like this: | |
| 1126 | ||
| 1127 | : <a href="emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a> | |
| 1128 | ||
| 1129 | where local file =emacs.html= is referenced. | |
| 1130 | For most folks this file does not exist. | |
| 1131 | Thus the new behavior is to generate this HTML link instead: | |
| 1132 | ||
| 1133 | : <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_mono/emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a> | |
| 1134 | ||
| 1135 | All emacs related info links are similarly translated plus few other | |
| 1136 | =gnu.org= manuals. | |
| 1137 | ||
| 1138 | *** Repeaters with a ~++~ interval and a time can be shifted to later today | |
| 1139 | ||
| 1140 | Previously, if a recurring task had a timestamp of | |
| 1141 | ~<2016-01-01 Fri 20:00 ++1d>~ and was completed on =2016-01-02= at | |
| 1142 | =08:00=, the task would skip =2016-01-02= and would be rescheduled for | |
| 1143 | =2016-01-03=. Timestamps with ~++~ cookies and a specific time will | |
| 1144 | now shift to the first possible future occurrence, even if the | |
| 1145 | occurrence is later the same day the task is completed. (Timestamps | |
| 1146 | already in the future are still shifted one time further into the | |
| 1147 | future.) | |
| 1148 | ||
| 1149 | *** ~org-mobile-action-alist~ is now a defconst | |
| 1150 | ||
| 1151 | It used to be a defcustom, with a warning that it shouldn't be | |
| 1152 | modified anyway. | |
| 1153 | ||
| 1154 | *** ~file+emacs~ and ~file+sys~ link types are deprecated | |
| 1155 | ||
| 1156 | They are still supported in Org 9.0 but will eventually be removed in | |
| 1157 | a later release. Use ~file~ link type along with universal arguments | |
| 1158 | to force opening it in either Emacs or with system application. | |
| 1159 | ||
| 1160 | *** New defcustom ~org-babel-J-command~ stores the j command | |
| 1161 | *** New defalias ~org-babel-execute:j~ | |
| 1162 | ||
| 1163 | Allows J source blocks be indicated by letter j. Previously the | |
| 1164 | indication letter was solely J. | |
| 1165 | ||
| 1166 | *** ~org-open-line~ ignores tables at the very beginning of the buffer | |
| 1167 | ||
| 1168 | When ~org-special-ctrl-o~ is non-nil, it is impractical to create | |
| 1169 | a blank line above a table at the beginning of the document. Now, as | |
| 1170 | a special case, ~org-open-line~ behaves normally in this situation. | |
| 1171 | ||
| 1172 | *** ~org-babel-hash-show-time~ is now customizable | |
| 1173 | ||
| 1174 | The experimental variable used to be more or less confidential, as | |
| 1175 | a ~defvar~. | |
| 1176 | ||
| 1177 | *** New ~:format~ property to parsed links | |
| 1178 | ||
| 1179 | It defines the format of the original link. Possible values are: | |
| 1180 | ~plain~, ~bracket~ and ~angle~. | |
| 1181 | ||
| 1182 | * Version 8.3 | |
| 1183 | ||
| 1184 | ** Incompatible changes | |
| 1185 | ||
| 1186 | *** Properties drawers syntax changes | |
| 1187 | ||
| 1188 | Properties drawers are now required to be located right after a | |
| 1189 | headline and its planning line, when applicable. | |
| 1190 | ||
| 1191 | It will break some documents as TODO states changes were sometimes | |
| 1192 | logged before the property drawer. | |
| 1193 | ||
| 1194 | The following function will repair them: | |
| 1195 | ||
| 1196 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp | |
| 1197 | (defun org-repair-property-drawers () | |
| 1198 | "Fix properties drawers in current buffer. | |
| 1199 | Ignore non Org buffers." | |
| 1200 | (when (eq major-mode 'org-mode) | |
| 1201 | (org-with-wide-buffer | |
| 1202 | (goto-char (point-min)) | |
| 1203 | (let ((case-fold-search t) | |
| 1204 | (inline-re (and (featurep 'org-inlinetask) | |
| 1205 | (concat (org-inlinetask-outline-regexp) | |
| 1206 | "END[ \t]*$")))) | |
| 1207 | (org-map-entries | |
| 1208 | (lambda () | |
| 1209 | (unless (and inline-re (org-looking-at-p inline-re)) | |
| 1210 | (save-excursion | |
| 1211 | (let ((end (save-excursion (outline-next-heading) (point)))) | |
| 1212 | (forward-line) | |
| 1213 | (when (org-looking-at-p org-planning-line-re) (forward-line)) | |
| 1214 | (when (and (< (point) end) | |
| 1215 | (not (org-looking-at-p org-property-drawer-re)) | |
| 1216 | (save-excursion | |
| 1217 | (and (re-search-forward org-property-drawer-re end t) | |
| 1218 | (eq (org-element-type | |
| 1219 | (save-match-data (org-element-at-point))) | |
| 1220 | 'drawer)))) | |
| 1221 | (insert (delete-and-extract-region | |
| 1222 | (match-beginning 0) | |
| 1223 | (min (1+ (match-end 0)) end))) | |
| 1224 | (unless (bolp) (insert "\n")))))))))))) | |
| 1225 | #+END_SRC | |
| 1226 | ||
| 1227 | *** Using "COMMENT" is now equivalent to commenting with "#" | |
| 1228 | ||
| 1229 | If you used "COMMENT" in headlines to prevent a subtree from being | |
| 1230 | exported, you can still do it but all information within the subtree | |
| 1231 | is now commented out, i.e. no #+OPTIONS line will be parsed or taken | |
| 1232 | into account when exporting. | |
| 1233 | ||
| 1234 | If you want to exclude a headline from export while using its contents | |
| 1235 | for setting options, use =:noexport:= (see =org-export-exclude-tags=.) | |
| 1236 | ||
| 1237 | *** =#+CATEGORY= keywords no longer apply partially to document | |
| 1238 | ||
| 1239 | It was possible to use several such keywords and have them apply to | |
| 1240 | the text below until the next one, but strongly deprecated since Org | |
| 1241 | 5.14 (2008). | |
| 1242 | ||
| 1243 | =#+CATEGORY= keywords are now global to the document. You can use node | |
| 1244 | properties to set category for a subtree, e.g., | |
| 1245 | ||
| 1246 | #+BEGIN_SRC org | |
| 1247 | ,* Headline | |
| 1248 | :PROPERTIES: | |
| 1249 | :CATEGORY: some category | |
| 1250 | :END: | |
| 1251 | #+END_SRC | |
| 1252 | ||
| 1253 | *** New variable to control visibility when revealing a location | |
| 1254 | ||
| 1255 | ~org-show-following-heading~, ~org-show-siblings~, ~org-show-entry-below~ | |
| 1256 | and ~org-show-hierarchy-above~ no longer exist. Instead, visibility is | |
| 1257 | controlled through a single variable: ~org-show-context-detail~, which | |
| 1258 | see. | |
| 1259 | ||
| 1260 | *** Replace disputed keys again when reading a date | |
| 1261 | ||
| 1262 | ~org-replace-disputed-keys~ has been ignored when reading date since | |
| 1263 | version 8.1, but the former behavior is restored again. | |
| 1264 | ||
| 1265 | Keybinding for reading date can be customized with a new variable | |
| 1266 | ~org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map~. | |
| 1267 | ||
| 1268 | *** No default title is provided when =TITLE= keyword is missing | |
| 1269 | ||
| 1270 | Skipping =TITLE= keyword no longer provides the current file name, or | |
| 1271 | buffer name, as the title. Instead, simply ignore the title. | |
| 1272 | ||
| 1273 | *** Default bindings of =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= changed | |
| 1274 | ||
| 1275 | The key sequences =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= are now bound to | |
| 1276 | ~org-next-visible-heading~ and ~org-previous-visible-heading~ | |
| 1277 | respectively, rather than the =outline-mode= versions of these | |
| 1278 | functions. The Org version of these functions skips over inline tasks | |
| 1279 | (and even-level headlines when ~org-odd-levels-only~ is set). | |
| 1280 | ||
| 1281 | *** ~org-element-context~ no longer return objects in keywords | |
| 1282 | ||
| 1283 | ~org-element-context~ used to return objects on some keywords, i.e., | |
| 1284 | =TITLE=, =DATE= and =AUTHOR=. It now returns only the keyword. | |
| 1285 | ||
| 1286 | *** ~org-timer-default-timer~ type changed from number to string | |
| 1287 | ||
| 1288 | If you have, in your configuration, something like =(setq | |
| 1289 | org-timer-default-timer 10)= replace it with =(setq | |
| 1290 | org-timer-default-timer "10")=. | |
| 1291 | ||
| 1292 | *** Functions signature changes | |
| 1293 | ||
| 1294 | The following functions require an additional argument. See their | |
| 1295 | docstring for more information. | |
| 1296 | ||
| 1297 | - ~org-export-collect-footnote-definitions~ | |
| 1298 | - ~org-html-format-headline-function~ | |
| 1299 | - ~org-html-format-inlinetask-function~ | |
| 1300 | - ~org-latex-format-headline-function~ | |
| 1301 | - ~org-latex-format-inlinetask-function~ | |
| 1302 | - ~org-link-search~ | |
| 1303 | ||
| 1304 | ** New features | |
| 1305 | ||
| 1306 | *** Default lexical evaluation of emacs-lisp src blocks | |
| 1307 | ||
| 1308 | Emacs-lisp src blocks in babel are now evaluated using lexical | |
| 1309 | scoping. There is a new header to control this behavior. | |
| 1310 | ||
| 1311 | The default results in an eval with lexical scoping. | |
| 1312 | :lexical yes | |
| 1313 | ||
| 1314 | This turns lexical scoping off in the eval (the former behavior). | |
| 1315 | :lexical no | |
| 1316 | ||
| 1317 | This uses the lexical environment with x=42 in the eval. | |
| 1318 | :lexical '((x . 42)) | |
| 1319 | ||
| 1320 | *** Behavior of ~org-return~ changed | |
| 1321 | ||
| 1322 | If point is before or after the headline title, insert a new line | |
| 1323 | without changing the headline. | |
| 1324 | ||
| 1325 | *** Hierarchies of tags | |
| 1326 | ||
| 1327 | The functionality of nesting tags in hierarchies is added to org-mode. | |
| 1328 | This is the generalization of what was previously called "Tag groups" | |
| 1329 | in the manual. That term is now changed to "Tag hierarchy". | |
| 1330 | ||
| 1331 | The following in-buffer definition: | |
| 1332 | ||
| 1333 | #+BEGIN_SRC org | |
| 1334 | ,#+TAGS: [ Group : SubOne SubTwo ] | |
| 1335 | ,#+TAGS: [ SubOne : SubOne1 SubOne2 ] | |
| 1336 | ,#+TAGS: [ SubTwo : SubTwo1 SubTwo2 ] | |
| 1337 | #+END_SRC | |
| 1338 | ||
| 1339 | Should be seen as the following tree of tags: | |
| 1340 | ||
| 1341 | - Group | |
| 1342 | - SubOne | |
| 1343 | - SubOne1 | |
| 1344 | - SubOne2 | |
| 1345 | - SubTwo | |
| 1346 | - SubTwo1 | |
| 1347 | - SubTwo2 | |
| 1348 | ||
| 1349 | Searching for "Group" should return all tags defined above. Filtering | |
| 1350 | on SubOne filters also it's sub-tags. Etc. | |
| 1351 | ||
| 1352 | There is no limit on the depth for the tag hierarchy. | |
| 1353 | ||
| 1354 | *** Additional syntax for non-unique grouptags | |
| 1355 | ||
| 1356 | Additional syntax is defined for grouptags if the tags in the group | |
| 1357 | don't have to be distinct on a heading. | |
| 1358 | ||
| 1359 | Grouptags had to previously be defined with { }. This syntax is | |
| 1360 | already used for exclusive tags and Grouptags need their own, | |
| 1361 | non-exclusive syntax. This behavior is achieved with [ ]. Note: { } | |
| 1362 | can still be used also for Grouptags but then only one of the given | |
| 1363 | tags can be used on the headline at the same time. Example: | |
| 1364 | ||
| 1365 | [ group : sub1 sub2 ] | |
| 1366 | ||
| 1367 | #+BEGIN_SRC org | |
| 1368 | ,* Test :sub1:sub2: | |
| 1369 | #+END_SRC | |
| 1370 | ||
| 1371 | This is a more general case than the already existing syntax for | |
| 1372 | grouptags; { }. | |
| 1373 | ||
| 1374 | *** Define regular expression patterns as tags | |
| 1375 | ||
| 1376 | Tags can be defined as grouptags with regular expressions as | |
| 1377 | "sub-tags". | |
| 1378 | ||
| 1379 | The regular expressions in the group must be marked up within { }. | |
| 1380 | Example use: | |
| 1381 | ||
| 1382 | : #+TAGS: [ Project : {P@.+} ] | |
| 1383 | ||
| 1384 | Searching for the tag Project will now list all tags also including | |
| 1385 | regular expression matches for P@.+. This is good for example for | |
| 1386 | projects tagged with a common identifier, i.e. P@2014_OrgTags. | |
| 1387 | ||
| 1388 | *** Filtering in the agenda on grouptags (Tag hierarchies) | |
| 1389 | ||
| 1390 | Filtering in the agenda on grouptags filters all of the related tags. | |
| 1391 | Except if a filter is applied with a (double) prefix-argument. | |
| 1392 | ||
| 1393 | Filtering in the agenda on subcategories does not filter the "above" | |
| 1394 | levels anymore. | |
| 1395 | ||
| 1396 | If a grouptag contains a regular expression the regular expression | |
| 1397 | is also used as a filter. | |
| 1398 | ||
| 1399 | *** Minor refactoring of ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~ | |
| 1400 | ||
| 1401 | Now uses the argument ARG and optional argument exclude instead of | |
| 1402 | strip and narrow. ARG because the argument has multiple purposes and | |
| 1403 | makes more sense than strip now. The term "narrowing" is changed to | |
| 1404 | exclude. | |
| 1405 | ||
| 1406 | The main purpose is for the function to make more logical sense when | |
| 1407 | filtering on tags now when tags can be structured in hierarchies. | |
| 1408 | ||
| 1409 | *** Babel: support for sed scripts | |
| 1410 | ||
| 1411 | Thanks to Bjarte Johansen for this feature. | |
| 1412 | ||
| 1413 | *** Babel: support for Processing language | |
| 1414 | ||
| 1415 | New ob-processing.el library. | |
| 1416 | ||
| 1417 | This library implements necessary functions for implementing editing | |
| 1418 | of Processing code blocks, viewing the resulting sketches in an | |
| 1419 | external viewer, and HTML export of the sketches. | |
| 1420 | ||
| 1421 | Check the documentation for more details. | |
| 1422 | ||
| 1423 | Thanks to Jarmo Hurri for this feature. | |
| 1424 | ||
| 1425 | *** New behavior for ~org-toggle-latex-fragment~ | |
| 1426 | ||
| 1427 | The new behavior is the following: | |
| 1428 | ||
| 1429 | - With a double prefix argument or with a single prefix argument when | |
| 1430 | point is before the first headline, toggle overlays in the whole | |
| 1431 | buffer; | |
| 1432 | ||
| 1433 | - With a single prefix argument, toggle overlays in the current | |
| 1434 | subtree; | |
| 1435 | ||
| 1436 | - On latex code, toggle overlay at point; | |
| 1437 | ||
| 1438 | - Otherwise, toggle overlays in the current section. | |
| 1439 | ||
| 1440 | *** Additional markup with =#+INCLUDE= keyword | |
| 1441 | ||
| 1442 | The content of the included file can now be optionally marked up, for | |
| 1443 | instance as HTML. See the documentation for details. | |
| 1444 | ||
| 1445 | *** File links with =#+INCLUDE= keyword | |
| 1446 | ||
| 1447 | Objects can be extracted via =#+INCLUDE= using file links. It is | |
| 1448 | possible to include only the contents of the object. See manual for | |
| 1449 | more information. | |
| 1450 | ||
| 1451 | *** Drawers do not need anymore to be referenced in =#+DRAWERS= | |
| 1452 | ||
| 1453 | One can use a drawer without listing it in the =#+DRAWERS= keyword, | |
| 1454 | which is now obsolete. As a consequence, this change also deprecates | |
| 1455 | ~org-drawers~ variable. | |
| 1456 | ||
| 1457 | *** ~org-edit-special~ can edit export blocks | |
| 1458 | ||
| 1459 | Using C-c ' on an export block now opens a sub-editing buffer. Major | |
| 1460 | mode in that buffer is determined by export backend name (e.g., | |
| 1461 | "latex" \to "latex-mode"). You can define exceptions to this rule by | |
| 1462 | configuring ~org-src-lang-modes~, which see. | |
| 1463 | ||
| 1464 | *** Additional =:hline= processing to ob-shell | |
| 1465 | ||
| 1466 | If the argument =:hlines yes= is present in a babel call, an optional | |
| 1467 | argument =:hlines-string= can be used to define a string to use as a | |
| 1468 | representation for the lisp symbol ='hline= in the shell program. The | |
| 1469 | default is =hline=. | |
| 1470 | ||
| 1471 | *** Markdown export supports switches in source blocks | |
| 1472 | ||
| 1473 | For example, it is now possible to number lines using the =-n= switch in | |
| 1474 | a source block. | |
| 1475 | ||
| 1476 | *** New option in ASCII export | |
| 1477 | ||
| 1478 | Plain lists can have an extra margin by setting ~org-ascii-list-margin~ | |
| 1479 | variable to an appropriate integer. | |
| 1480 | ||
| 1481 | *** New blocks in ASCII export | |
| 1482 | ||
| 1483 | ASCII export now supports =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYRIGHT= and =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYLEFT= | |
| 1484 | blocks. See documentation for details. | |
| 1485 | ||
| 1486 | *** More back-end specific publishing options | |
| 1487 | ||
| 1488 | The number of publishing options specific to each back-end has been | |
| 1489 | increased. See manual for details. | |
| 1490 | ||
| 1491 | *** Export inline source blocks | |
| 1492 | ||
| 1493 | Inline source code was used to be removed upon exporting. They are | |
| 1494 | now handled as standard code blocks, i.e., the source code can appear | |
| 1495 | in the output, depending on the parameters. | |
| 1496 | ||
| 1497 | *** Extend ~org-export-first-sibling-p~ and ~org-export-last-sibling-p~ | |
| 1498 | ||
| 1499 | These functions now support any element or object, not only headlines. | |
| 1500 | ||
| 1501 | *** New function: ~org-export-table-row-in-header-p~ | |
| 1502 | ||
| 1503 | *** New function: ~org-export-get-reference~ | |
| 1504 | ||
| 1505 | *** New function: ~org-element-lineage~ | |
| 1506 | ||
| 1507 | This function deprecates ~org-export-get-genealogy~. It also provides | |
| 1508 | more features. See docstring for details. | |
| 1509 | ||
| 1510 | *** New function: ~org-element-copy~ | |
| 1511 | ||
| 1512 | *** New filter: ~org-export-filter-body-functions~ | |
| 1513 | ||
| 1514 | Functions in this filter are applied on the body of the exported | |
| 1515 | document, before wrapping it within the template. | |
| 1516 | ||
| 1517 | *** New :environment parameter when exporting example blocks to LaTeX | |
| 1518 | ||
| 1519 | : #+ATTR_LATEX: :environment myverbatim | |
| 1520 | : #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE | |
| 1521 | : This sentence is false. | |
| 1522 | : #+END_EXAMPLE | |
| 1523 | ||
| 1524 | will be exported using =@samp(myverbatim)= instead of =@samp(verbatim)=. | |
| 1525 | ||
| 1526 | *** Various improvements on radio tables | |
| 1527 | ||
| 1528 | Radio tables feature now relies on Org's export framework ("ox.el"). | |
| 1529 | ~:no-escape~ parameter no longer exists, but additional global | |
| 1530 | parameters are now supported: ~:raw~, ~:backend~. Moreover, there are new | |
| 1531 | parameters specific to some pre-defined translators, e.g., | |
| 1532 | ~:environment~ and ~:booktabs~ for ~orgtbl-to-latex~. See translators | |
| 1533 | docstrings (including ~orgtbl-to-generic~) for details. | |
| 1534 | ||
| 1535 | *** Non-floating minted listings in Latex export | |
| 1536 | ||
| 1537 | It is not possible to specify =#+attr_latex: :float nil= in conjunction | |
| 1538 | with source blocks exported by the minted package. | |
| 1539 | ||
| 1540 | *** Field formulas can now create columns as needed | |
| 1541 | ||
| 1542 | Previously, evaluating formulas that referenced out-of-bounds columns | |
| 1543 | would throw an error. A new variable ~org-table-formula-create-columns~ | |
| 1544 | was added to adjust this behavior. It is now possible to silently add | |
| 1545 | new columns, to do so with a warning or to explicitly ask the user | |
| 1546 | each time. | |
| 1547 | ||
| 1548 | *** ASCII plot | |
| 1549 | ||
| 1550 | Ability to plot values in a column through ASCII-art bars. See manual | |
| 1551 | for details. | |
| 1552 | ||
| 1553 | *** New hook: ~org-archive-hook~ | |
| 1554 | ||
| 1555 | This hook is called after successfully archiving a subtree, with point | |
| 1556 | on the original subtree, not yet deleted. | |
| 1557 | ||
| 1558 | *** New option: ~org-attach-archive-delete~ | |
| 1559 | ||
| 1560 | When non-nil, attachments from archived subtrees are removed. | |
| 1561 | ||
| 1562 | *** New option: ~org-latex-caption-above~ | |
| 1563 | ||
| 1564 | This variable generalizes ~org-latex-table-caption-above~, which is now | |
| 1565 | deprecated. In addition to tables, it applies to source blocks, | |
| 1566 | special blocks and images. See docstring for more information. | |
| 1567 | ||
| 1568 | *** New option: ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~ | |
| 1569 | ||
| 1570 | See the docstring for more information. | |
| 1571 | ||
| 1572 | *** Export unnumbered headlines | |
| 1573 | ||
| 1574 | Headlines, for which the property ~UNNUMBERED~ is non-nil, are now | |
| 1575 | exported without section numbers irrespective of their levels. The | |
| 1576 | property is inherited by children. | |
| 1577 | ||
| 1578 | *** Tables can be sorted with an arbitrary function | |
| 1579 | ||
| 1580 | It is now possible to specify a function, both programmatically, | |
| 1581 | through a new optional argument, and interactively with ~f~ or ~F~ keys, | |
| 1582 | to sort a table. | |
| 1583 | ||
| 1584 | *** Table of contents can be local to a section | |
| 1585 | ||
| 1586 | The ~TOC~ keywords now accepts an optional ~local~ parameter. See manual | |
| 1587 | for details. | |
| 1588 | ||
| 1589 | *** Countdown timers can now be paused | |
| 1590 | ||
| 1591 | ~org-timer-pause-time~ now pauses and restarts both relative and | |
| 1592 | countdown timers. | |
| 1593 | ||
| 1594 | *** New option ~only-window~ for ~org-agenda-window-setup~ | |
| 1595 | ||
| 1596 | When ~org-agenda-window-setup~ is set to ~only-window~, the agenda is | |
| 1597 | displayed as the sole window of the current frame. | |
| 1598 | ||
| 1599 | *** ~{{{date}}}~ macro supports optional formatting argument | |
| 1600 | ||
| 1601 | It is now possible to supply and optional formatting argument to | |
| 1602 | ~{{{date}}}~. See manual for details. | |
| 1603 | ||
| 1604 | *** ~{{{property}}}~ macro supports optional search argument | |
| 1605 | ||
| 1606 | It is now possible to supply an optional search option to | |
| 1607 | ~{{{property}}}~ in order to retrieve remote properties optional. See | |
| 1608 | manual for details. | |
| 1609 | ||
| 1610 | *** New option ~org-export-with-title~ | |
| 1611 | ||
| 1612 | It is possible to suppress the title insertion with ~#+OPTIONS: | |
| 1613 | title:nil~ or globally using the variable ~org-export-with-title~. | |
| 1614 | ||
| 1615 | *** New entities family: "\_ " | |
| 1616 | ||
| 1617 | "\_ " are used to insert up to 20 contiguous spaces in various | |
| 1618 | back-ends. In particular, this family can be used to introduce | |
| 1619 | leading spaces within table cells. | |
| 1620 | ||
| 1621 | *** New MathJax configuration options | |
| 1622 | ||
| 1623 | Org uses the MathJax CDN by default. See the manual and the docstring | |
| 1624 | of ~org-html-mathjax-options~ for details. | |
| 1625 | ||
| 1626 | *** New behavior in `org-export-options-alist' | |
| 1627 | ||
| 1628 | When defining a back-end, it is now possible to specify to give | |
| 1629 | `parse' behavior on a keyword. It is equivalent to call | |
| 1630 | `org-element-parse-secondary-string' on the value. | |
| 1631 | ||
| 1632 | However, parsed =KEYWORD= is automatically associated to an | |
| 1633 | =:EXPORT_KEYWORD:= property, which can be used to override the keyword | |
| 1634 | value during a subtree export. Moreover, macros are expanded in such | |
| 1635 | keywords and properties. | |
| 1636 | ||
| 1637 | *** Viewport support in html export | |
| 1638 | ||
| 1639 | Viewport for mobile-optimized website is now automatically inserted | |
| 1640 | when exporting to html. See ~org-html-viewport~ for details. | |
| 1641 | ||
| 1642 | *** New ~#+SUBTITLE~ export keyword | |
| 1643 | ||
| 1644 | Org can typeset a subtitle in some export backends. See the manual | |
| 1645 | for details. | |
| 1646 | ||
| 1647 | *** Remotely edit a footnote definition | |
| 1648 | ||
| 1649 | Calling ~org-edit-footnote-reference~ (C-c ') on a footnote reference | |
| 1650 | allows to edit its definition, as long as it is not anonymous, in a | |
| 1651 | dedicated buffer. It works even if buffer is currently narrowed. | |
| 1652 | ||
| 1653 | *** New function ~org-delete-indentation~ bound to ~M-^~ | |
| 1654 | ||
| 1655 | Work as ~delete-indentation~ unless at heading, in which case text is | |
| 1656 | added to headline text. | |
| 1657 | ||
| 1658 | *** Support for images in Texinfo export | |
| 1659 | ||
| 1660 | ~Texinfo~ back-end now handles images. See the manual for details. | |
| 1661 | ||
| 1662 | *** Support for captions in Texinfo export | |
| 1663 | ||
| 1664 | Tables and source blocks can now have captions. Additionally, lists | |
| 1665 | of tables and lists of listings can be inserted in the document with | |
| 1666 | =#+TOC= keyword. | |
| 1667 | ||
| 1668 | *** Countdown timer support hh:mm:ss format | |
| 1669 | ||
| 1670 | In addition to setting countdown timers in minutes, they can also be | |
| 1671 | set using the hh:mm:ss format. | |
| 1672 | ||
| 1673 | *** Extend ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~ | |
| 1674 | ||
| 1675 | ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~ now accepts 0 as an argument for the | |
| 1676 | number of clones, which removes the repeater from the original subtree | |
| 1677 | and creates one shifted, repeating clone. | |
| 1678 | ||
| 1679 | *** New time block for clock tables: ~untilnow~ | |
| 1680 | ||
| 1681 | It encompasses all past closed clocks. | |
| 1682 | ||
| 1683 | *** Support for the ~polyglossia~ LaTeX package | |
| 1684 | ||
| 1685 | See the docstring of ~org-latex-classes~ and | |
| 1686 | ~org-latex-guess-polyglossia-language~ for details. | |
| 1687 | ||
| 1688 | *** None-floating tables, graphics and blocks can have captions | |
| 1689 | ||
| 1690 | *** `org-insert-heading' can be forced to insert top-level headline | |
| 1691 | ||
| 1692 | ** Removed functions | |
| 1693 | ||
| 1694 | *** Removed function ~org-translate-time~ | |
| 1695 | ||
| 1696 | Use ~org-timestamp-translate~ instead. | |
| 1697 | ||
| 1698 | *** Removed function ~org-beamer-insert-options-template~ | |
| 1699 | ||
| 1700 | This function inserted a Beamer specific template at point or in | |
| 1701 | current subtree. Use ~org-export-insert-default-template~ instead, as | |
| 1702 | it provides more features and covers all export back-ends. It is also | |
| 1703 | accessible from the export dispatcher. | |
| 1704 | ||
| 1705 | *** Removed function ~org-timer-cancel-timer~ | |
| 1706 | ||
| 1707 | ~org-timer-stop~ now stops both relative and countdown timers. | |
| 1708 | ||
| 1709 | *** Removed function ~org-export-solidify-link-text~ | |
| 1710 | ||
| 1711 | This function, being non-bijective, introduced bug in internal | |
| 1712 | references. Use ~org-export-get-reference~ instead. | |
| 1713 | ||
| 1714 | *** Removed function ~org-end-of-meta-data-and-drawers~ | |
| 1715 | ||
| 1716 | The function is superseded by ~org-end-of-meta-data~, called with an | |
| 1717 | optional argument. | |
| 1718 | ||
| 1719 | *** Removed functions ~org-table-colgroup-line-p~, ~org-table-cookie-line-p~ | |
| 1720 | ||
| 1721 | These functions were left-over from pre 8.0 era. They are not correct | |
| 1722 | anymore. Since they are not needed, they have no replacement. | |
| 1723 | ||
| 1724 | ** Removed options | |
| 1725 | ||
| 1726 | *** ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~ is deprecated | |
| 1727 | ||
| 1728 | It will be kept in code base until next release, for backward | |
| 1729 | compatibility. | |
| 1730 | ||
| 1731 | If you need to separate consecutive lists with blank lines, always use | |
| 1732 | two of them, as if this option was nil (default value). | |
| 1733 | ||
| 1734 | *** ~org-export-with-creator~ is a boolean | |
| 1735 | ||
| 1736 | Special ~comment~ value is no longer allowed. It is possible to use a | |
| 1737 | body filter to add comments about the creator at the end of the | |
| 1738 | document instead. | |
| 1739 | ||
| 1740 | *** Removed option =org-html-use-unicode-chars= | |
| 1741 | ||
| 1742 | Setting this to non-nil was problematic as it converted characters | |
| 1743 | everywhere in the buffer, possibly corrupting URLs. | |
| 1744 | ||
| 1745 | *** Removed option =org-babel-sh-command= | |
| 1746 | ||
| 1747 | This undocumented option defaulted to the value of =shell-file-name= at | |
| 1748 | the time of loading =ob-shell=. The new behavior is to use the value | |
| 1749 | of =shell-file-name= directly when the shell langage is =shell=. To chose | |
| 1750 | a different shell, either customize =shell-file-name= or bind this | |
| 1751 | variable locally. | |
| 1752 | ||
| 1753 | *** Removed option =org-babel-sh-var-quote-fmt= | |
| 1754 | ||
| 1755 | This undocumented option was supposed to provide different quoting | |
| 1756 | styles when changing the shell type. Changing the shell type can now | |
| 1757 | be done directly from the source block and the quoting style has to be | |
| 1758 | compatible across all shells, so a customization doesn't make sense | |
| 1759 | anymore. The chosen hard coded quoting style conforms to POSIX. | |
| 1760 | ||
| 1761 | *** Removed option ~org-insert-labeled-timestamps-at-point~ | |
| 1762 | ||
| 1763 | Setting this option to anything else that the default value (nil) | |
| 1764 | would create invalid planning info. This dangerous option is now | |
| 1765 | removed. | |
| 1766 | ||
| 1767 | *** Removed option ~org-koma-letter-use-title~ | |
| 1768 | ||
| 1769 | Use org-export-with-title instead. See also below. | |
| 1770 | ||
| 1771 | *** Removed option ~org-entities-ascii-explanatory~ | |
| 1772 | ||
| 1773 | This variable has no effect since Org 8.0. | |
| 1774 | ||
| 1775 | *** Removed option ~org-table-error-on-row-ref-crossing-hline~ | |
| 1776 | ||
| 1777 | This variable has no effect since August 2009. | |
| 1778 | ||
| 1779 | *** Removed MathML-related options from ~org-html-mathjax-options~ | |
| 1780 | ||
| 1781 | MathJax automatically chooses the best display technology based on the | |
| 1782 | end-users browser. You may force initial usage of MathML via | |
| 1783 | ~org-html-mathjax-template~ or by setting the ~path~ property of | |
| 1784 | ~org-html-mathjax-options~. | |
| 1785 | ||
| 1786 | *** Removed comment-related filters | |
| 1787 | ||
| 1788 | ~org-export-filter-comment-functions~ and | |
| 1789 | ~org-export-filter-comment-block-functions~ variables do not exist | |
| 1790 | anymore. | |
| 1791 | ||
| 1792 | ** Miscellaneous | |
| 1793 | ||
| 1794 | *** Strip all meta data from ITEM special property | |
| 1795 | ||
| 1796 | ITEM special property does not contain TODO, priority or tags anymore. | |
| 1797 | ||
| 1798 | *** File names in links accept are now compatible with URI syntax | |
| 1799 | ||
| 1800 | Absolute file names can now start with =///= in addition to =/=. E.g., | |
| 1801 | =[[file:///home/me/unicorn.jpg]]=. | |
| 1802 | ||
| 1803 | *** Footnotes in included files are now local to the file | |
| 1804 | ||
| 1805 | As a consequence, it is possible to include multiple Org files with | |
| 1806 | footnotes in a master document without being concerned about footnote | |
| 1807 | labels colliding. | |
| 1808 | ||
| 1809 | *** Mailto links now use regular URI syntax | |
| 1810 | ||
| 1811 | This change deprecates old Org syntax for mailto links: | |
| 1812 | =mailto:user@domain::Subject=. | |
| 1813 | ||
| 1814 | *** =QUOTE= keywords do not exist anymore | |
| 1815 | ||
| 1816 | =QUOTE= keywords have been deprecated since Org 8.2. | |
| 1817 | ||
| 1818 | *** Select tests to perform with the build system | |
| 1819 | ||
| 1820 | The build system has been enhanced to allow test selection with a | |
| 1821 | regular expression by defining =BTEST_RE= during the test invocation. | |
| 1822 | This is especially useful during bisection to find just when a | |
| 1823 | particular test failure was introduced. | |
| 1824 | ||
| 1825 | *** Exact heading search for external links ignore spaces and cookies | |
| 1826 | ||
| 1827 | Exact heading search for links now ignore spaces and cookies. This is | |
| 1828 | the case for links of the form ~file:projects.org::*task title~, as well | |
| 1829 | as links of the form ~file:projects.org::some words~ when | |
| 1830 | ~org-link-search-must-match-exact-headline~ is not nil. | |
| 1831 | ||
| 1832 | *** ~org-latex-hyperref-template~, ~org-latex-title-command~ formatting | |
| 1833 | ||
| 1834 | New formatting keys are supported. See the respective docstrings. | |
| 1835 | Note, ~org-latex-hyperref-template~ has a new default value. | |
| 1836 | ||
| 1837 | *** ~float, wasysym, marvosym~ are removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~ | |
| 1838 | ||
| 1839 | If you require any of these package add them to your preamble via | |
| 1840 | ~org-latex-packages-alist~. Org also uses default LaTeX ~\tolerance~ now. | |
| 1841 | ||
| 1842 | *** When exporting, throw an error on unresolved id/fuzzy links and code refs | |
| 1843 | ||
| 1844 | This helps spotting wrong links. | |
| 1845 | ||
| 1846 | * Version 8.2 | |
| 1847 | ||
| 1848 | ** Incompatible changes | |
| 1849 | *** =ob-sh.el= renamed to =ob-shell= | |
| 1850 | This may require two changes in user config. | |
| 1851 | ||
| 1852 | 1. In =org-babel-do-load-languages=, change =(sh . t)= to =(shell . t)=. | |
| 1853 | 2. Edit =local.mk= files to change the value of =BTEST_OB_LANGUAGES= | |
| 1854 | to remove "sh" and include "shell". | |
| 1855 | ||
| 1856 | *** Combine org-mac-message.el and org-mac-link-grabber into org-mac-link.el | |
| 1857 | ||
| 1858 | Please remove calls to =(require 'org-mac-message)= and =(require | |
| 1859 | 'org-mac-link-grabber)= in your =.emacs= initialization file. All you | |
| 1860 | need now is =(require 'org-mac-link)=. | |
| 1861 | ||
| 1862 | Additionally, replace any calls to =ogml-grab-link= to | |
| 1863 | =org-mac-grab-link=. For example, replace this line: | |
| 1864 | ||
| 1865 | : (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'omgl-grab-link) | |
| 1866 | ||
| 1867 | with this: | |
| 1868 | ||
| 1869 | : (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'org-mac-grab-link) | |
| 1870 | ||
| 1871 | *** HTML export: Replace =HTML_HTML5_FANCY= by =:html-html5-fancy= (...) | |
| 1872 | ||
| 1873 | Some of the HTML specific export options in Org <8.1 are either nil or | |
| 1874 | t, like =#+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=. We replaced these binary options with | |
| 1875 | option keywords like :html-include-style. | |
| 1876 | ||
| 1877 | So you need to replace | |
| 1878 | ||
| 1879 | : #+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE: t | |
| 1880 | ||
| 1881 | by | |
| 1882 | ||
| 1883 | : #+OPTIONS: :html-include-style t | |
| 1884 | ||
| 1885 | Options affected by this change: =HTML5_FANCY=, =HTML_INCLUDE_SCRIPTS= | |
| 1886 | and =HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=. | |
| 1887 | ||
| 1888 | *** Add an argument to ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-buffer~ | |
| 1889 | ||
| 1890 | ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-file~ can run in a different | |
| 1891 | process when provided a non-nil =ASYNC= optional argument, without | |
| 1892 | relying on ~org-export-async-start~ macro. | |
| 1893 | ||
| 1894 | Since =ASYNC= is the first of optional arguments, you have to shift | |
| 1895 | the other optional arguments accordingly. | |
| 1896 | ||
| 1897 | *** Export back-ends are now structures | |
| 1898 | ||
| 1899 | Export back-ends are now structures, and stored as such in the | |
| 1900 | communication channel during an export process. In other words, from | |
| 1901 | now on, ~(plist-get info :back-end)~ will return a structure instead | |
| 1902 | of a symbol. | |
| 1903 | ||
| 1904 | Arguments in hooks and in filters are still symbols, though. | |
| 1905 | ||
| 1906 | ** Important bugfixes | |
| 1907 | ||
| 1908 | *** [[doc:org-insert-heading][org-insert-heading]] has been rewritten and bugs are now fixed | |
| 1909 | *** The replacement of disputed keys is now turned of when reading a date | |
| 1910 | ||
| 1911 | *** Match string for sparse trees can now contain a slash in a property value | |
| 1912 | ||
| 1913 | You can now have searches like SOMEPROP="aaa/bbb". Until now, | |
| 1914 | this would break because the slash would be interpreted as the | |
| 1915 | separator starting a TOTO match string. | |
| 1916 | ** New features | |
| 1917 | ||
| 1918 | *** =C-c ^ x= will now sort checklist items by their checked status | |
| 1919 | ||
| 1920 | See [[doc:org-sort-list][org-sort-list]]: hitting =C-c ^ x= will put checked items at the end | |
| 1921 | of the list. | |
| 1922 | *** Various LaTeX export enhancements | |
| 1923 | ||
| 1924 | - Support SVG images | |
| 1925 | - Support for .pgf files | |
| 1926 | - LaTeX Babel blocks can now be exported as =.tikz= files | |
| 1927 | - Allow =latexmk= as an option for [[doc:org-latex-pdf-process][org-latex-pdf-process]] | |
| 1928 | - When using =\usepackage[AUTO]{babel}=, AUTO will automatically be | |
| 1929 | replaced with a value compatible with ~org-export-default-language~ | |
| 1930 | or ~LANGUAGE~ keyword. | |
| 1931 | - The dependency on the =latexsym= LaTeX package has been removed, we | |
| 1932 | now use =amssymb= symbols by default instead. | |
| 1933 | ||
| 1934 | *** New functions for paragraph motion | |
| 1935 | ||
| 1936 | The commands =C-down= and =C-up= now invoke special commands | |
| 1937 | that use knowledge from the org-elements parser to move the cursor | |
| 1938 | in a paragraph-like way. | |
| 1939 | ||
| 1940 | *** New entities in =org-entities.el= | |
| 1941 | ||
| 1942 | Add support for ell, imath, jmath, varphi, varpi, aleph, gimel, beth, | |
| 1943 | dalet, cdots, S (§), dag, ddag, colon, therefore, because, triangleq, | |
| 1944 | leq, geq, lessgtr, lesseqgtr, ll, lll, gg, ggg, prec, preceq, | |
| 1945 | preccurlyeq, succ, succeq, succurlyeq, setminus, nexist(s), mho, | |
| 1946 | check, frown, diamond. Changes loz, vert, checkmark, smile and tilde. | |
| 1947 | ||
| 1948 | *** Anonymous export back-ends | |
| 1949 | ||
| 1950 | ~org-export-create-backend~ can create anonymous export back-ends, | |
| 1951 | which can then be passed to export functions like | |
| 1952 | ~org-export-to-file~, ~org-export-to-buffer~ or ~org-export-as~. | |
| 1953 | ||
| 1954 | It allows for quick translation of Org syntax without the overhead of | |
| 1955 | registering a new back-end. | |
| 1956 | ||
| 1957 | *** New agenda fortnight view | |
| 1958 | ||
| 1959 | The agenda has not, in addition to day, week, month, and year | |
| 1960 | views, also a fortnight view covering 14 days. | |
| 1961 | ** New options | |
| 1962 | ||
| 1963 | *** New option [[doc:org-bookmark-names-plist][org-bookmark-names-plist]] | |
| 1964 | ||
| 1965 | This allows to specify the names of automatic bookmarks. | |
| 1966 | *** New option [[doc:org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties][org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties]] | |
| 1967 | ||
| 1968 | This allows more flexibility when optimizing the agenda generation. | |
| 1969 | See https://orgmode.org/worg/agenda-optimization.html for details. | |
| 1970 | *** New option: [[doc:org-html-link-use-abs-url][org-html-link-use-abs-url]] to force using absolute URLs | |
| 1971 | ||
| 1972 | This is an export/publishing option, and should be used either within | |
| 1973 | the =#+OPTIONS= line(s) or within a [[doc:org-publish-project-alist][org-publish-project-alist]]. | |
| 1974 | ||
| 1975 | Setting this option to =t= is needed when the HTML output does not | |
| 1976 | allow relative URLs. For example, the =contrib/lisp/ox-rss.el= | |
| 1977 | library produces a RSS feed, and RSS feeds need to use absolute URLs, | |
| 1978 | so a combination of =:html-link-home "..." and :html-link-use-abs-url | |
| 1979 | t= is required---see the configuration example in the comment section | |
| 1980 | of =ox-rss.el=. | |
| 1981 | ||
| 1982 | *** New option [[doc:org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd][org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd]] | |
| 1983 | ||
| 1984 | This makes java executable configurable for ditaa blocks. | |
| 1985 | ||
| 1986 | *** New options [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex][org-babel-latex-htlatex]] and [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages][org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages]] | |
| 1987 | ||
| 1988 | This enables SVG generation from latex code blocks. | |
| 1989 | ||
| 1990 | *** New option: [[doc:org-habit-show-done-always-green][org-habit-show-done-always-green]] | |
| 1991 | ||
| 1992 | See [[https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-orgmode/2013-05/msg00214.html][this message]] from Max Mikhanosha. | |
| 1993 | ||
| 1994 | *** New option: [[doc:org-babel-inline-result-wrap][org-babel-inline-result-wrap]] | |
| 1995 | ||
| 1996 | If you set this to the following | |
| 1997 | ||
| 1998 | : (setq org-babel-inline-result-wrap "$%s$") | |
| 1999 | ||
| 2000 | then inline code snippets will be wrapped into the formatting string. | |
| 2001 | ||
| 2002 | *** New option: [[doc:org-special-ctrl-o][org-special-ctrl-o]] | |
| 2003 | ||
| 2004 | This variable can be used to turn off the special behavior of | |
| 2005 | =C-o= in tables. | |
| 2006 | ** New contributed packages | |
| 2007 | ||
| 2008 | - =ox-bibtex.el= by Nicolas Goaziou :: an utility to handle BibTeX | |
| 2009 | export to both LaTeX and HTML exports. It uses the [[http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/][bibtex2html]] | |
| 2010 | software. | |
| 2011 | ||
| 2012 | - =org-screenshot.el= by Max Mikhanosha :: an utility to handle | |
| 2013 | screenshots easily from Org, using the external tool [[http://freecode.com/projects/scrot][scrot]]. | |
| 2014 | ||
| 2015 | ** Miscellaneous | |
| 2016 | ||
| 2017 | *** "QUOTE" keywords in headlines are deprecated | |
| 2018 | ||
| 2019 | "QUOTE" keywords are an undocumented feature in Org. When a headline | |
| 2020 | starts with the keyword "QUOTE", its contents are parsed as | |
| 2021 | a ~quote-section~ and treated as an example block. You can achieve | |
| 2022 | the same with example blocks. | |
| 2023 | ||
| 2024 | This feature is deprecated and will be removed in the next Org | |
| 2025 | release. | |
| 2026 | ||
| 2027 | * Version 8.0.1 | |
| 2028 | ||
| 2029 | ** Installation | |
| 2030 | ||
| 2031 | Installation instructions have been updated and simplified. | |
| 2032 | ||
| 2033 | If you have troubles installing or updating Org, focus on these | |
| 2034 | instructions: | |
| 2035 | ||
| 2036 | - when updating via a =.zip/.tar.gz= file, you only need to set the | |
| 2037 | =load-path= in your =.emacs=. Set it before any other Org | |
| 2038 | customization that would call autoloaded Org functions. | |
| 2039 | ||
| 2040 | - when updating by pulling Org's Git repository, make sure to create the | |
| 2041 | correct autoloads. You can do this by running =~$ make autoloads= (to | |
| 2042 | only create the autoloads) or by running =~$ make= (to also compile | |
| 2043 | the Emacs lisp files.) =~$ make help= and =~$ make helpall= gives you | |
| 2044 | detailed explanations. | |
| 2045 | ||
| 2046 | - when updating through ELPA (either from GNU ELPA or from Org ELPA), | |
| 2047 | you have to install Org's ELPA package in a session where no Org | |
| 2048 | function has been called already. | |
| 2049 | ||
| 2050 | When in doubt, run =M-x org-version RET= and see if you have a mixed-up | |
| 2051 | installation. | |
| 2052 | ||
| 2053 | See https://orgmode.org/org.html#Installation for details. | |
| 2054 | ||
| 2055 | ** Incompatible changes | |
| 2056 | ||
| 2057 | Org 8.0 is the most disruptive major version of Org. | |
| 2058 | ||
| 2059 | If you configured export options, you will have to update some of them. | |
| 2060 | ||
| 2061 | If you used =#+ATTR_*= keywords, the syntax of the attributes changed and | |
| 2062 | you will have to update them. | |
| 2063 | ||
| 2064 | Below is a list of changes for which you need to take action. | |
| 2065 | ||
| 2066 | See https://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html for the most recent version of | |
| 2067 | this list and for detailed instructions on how to migrate. | |
| 2068 | ||
| 2069 | **** New export engine | |
| 2070 | ||
| 2071 | Org 8.0 comes with a new export engine written by Nicolas Goaziou. This | |
| 2072 | export engine relies on ~org-element.el~ (Org's syntax parser), which was | |
| 2073 | already in Org's core. This new export engine triggered the rewriting of | |
| 2074 | /all/ export back-ends. | |
| 2075 | ||
| 2076 | The most visible change is the export dispatcher, accessible through the | |
| 2077 | keybinding =C-c C-e=. By default, this menu only shows some of the | |
| 2078 | built-in export formats, but you can add more formats by loading them | |
| 2079 | directly (e.g., =(require 'ox-texinfo)= or by configuring the option | |
| 2080 | [[doc:org-export-backends][org-export-backends]]. | |
| 2081 | ||
| 2082 | More contributed back-ends are available from the =contrib/= directory, the | |
| 2083 | corresponding files start with the =ox-= prefix. | |
| 2084 | ||
| 2085 | If you customized an export back-end (like HTML or LaTeX), you will need to | |
| 2086 | rename some options so that your customization is not lost. Typically, an | |
| 2087 | option starting with =org-export-html-= is now named =org-html-=. See the | |
| 2088 | manual for details and check [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html][this Worg page]] for directions. | |
| 2089 | ||
| 2090 | **** New syntax for #+ATTR_HTML/LaTeX/... options | |
| 2091 | ||
| 2092 | : #+ATTR_HTML width="200px" | |
| 2093 | ||
| 2094 | should now be written | |
| 2095 | ||
| 2096 | : #+ATTR_HTML :width 200px | |
| 2097 | ||
| 2098 | Keywords like =#+ATTR_HTML= and =#+ATTR_LaTeX= are defined in their | |
| 2099 | respective back-ends, and the list of supported parameters depends on | |
| 2100 | each backend. See Org's manual for details. | |
| 2101 | ||
| 2102 | **** ~org-remember.el~ has been removed | |
| 2103 | ||
| 2104 | You cannot use =remember.el= anymore to capture notes. | |
| 2105 | ||
| 2106 | Support for remember templates has been obsoleted since long, it is | |
| 2107 | now fully removed. | |
| 2108 | ||
| 2109 | Use =M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET= to import your | |
| 2110 | remember templates into capture templates. | |
| 2111 | ||
| 2112 | **** ~org-jsinfo.el~ has been merged into ~ox-html.el~ | |
| 2113 | ||
| 2114 | If you were requiring ~ox-jsinfo.el~ in your ~.emacs.el~ file, you | |
| 2115 | will have to remove this requirement from your initialization file. | |
| 2116 | ||
| 2117 | **** Note for third-party developers | |
| 2118 | ||
| 2119 | The name of the files for export back-end have changed: we now use the | |
| 2120 | prefix =ox-= for those files (like we use the =ob-= prefix for Babel | |
| 2121 | files.) For example ~org-html.el~ is now ~ox-html.el~. | |
| 2122 | ||
| 2123 | If your code relies on these files, please update the names in your | |
| 2124 | code. | |
| 2125 | ||
| 2126 | **** Packages moved from core to contrib | |
| 2127 | ||
| 2128 | Since packages in Org's core are meant to be part of GNU Emacs, we try | |
| 2129 | to be minimalist when it comes to adding files into core. For 8.0, we | |
| 2130 | moved some contributions into the =contrib/= directory. | |
| 2131 | ||
| 2132 | The rationale for deciding that these files should live in =contrib/= | |
| 2133 | is either because they rely on third-party software that is not | |
| 2134 | included in Emacs, or because they are not targeting a significant | |
| 2135 | user-base. | |
| 2136 | ||
| 2137 | - org-colview-xemacs.el | |
| 2138 | - org-mac-message.el | |
| 2139 | - org-mew.el | |
| 2140 | - org-wl.el | |
| 2141 | - ox-freedmind.el | |
| 2142 | - ox-taskjuggler.el | |
| 2143 | ||
| 2144 | Note that ~ox-freedmind.el~ has been rewritten by Jambunathan, | |
| 2145 | ~org-mew.el~ has been enhanced by Tokuya Kameshima and | |
| 2146 | ~ox-taskjuggler.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and others. | |
| 2147 | ||
| 2148 | Also, the Taskjuggler exporter now uses TJ3 by default. John Hendy | |
| 2149 | wrote [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html][a tutorial on Worg]] for the TJ3 export. | |
| 2150 | ||
| 2151 | ** New packages in core | |
| 2152 | ||
| 2153 | *** ~ob-makefile.el~ by Eric Schulte and Thomas S. Dye | |
| 2154 | ||
| 2155 | =ob-makefile.el= implements Org Babel support for Makefile tangling. | |
| 2156 | ||
| 2157 | *** ~ox-man.el~ by Luis Anaya | |
| 2158 | ||
| 2159 | =ox-man.el= allows you to export Org files to =man= pages. | |
| 2160 | ||
| 2161 | *** ~ox-md.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou | |
| 2162 | ||
| 2163 | =ox-md.el= allows you to export Org files to Markdown files, using the | |
| 2164 | vanilla [[http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/][Markdown syntax]]. | |
| 2165 | ||
| 2166 | *** ~ox-texinfo.el~ by Jonathan Leech-Pepin | |
| 2167 | ||
| 2168 | =ox-texinfo.el= allows you to export Org files to [[https://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/][Texinfo]] files. | |
| 2169 | ||
| 2170 | ** New packages in contrib | |
| 2171 | ||
| 2172 | *** ~ob-julia.el~ by G. Jay Kerns | |
| 2173 | ||
| 2174 | [[http://julialang.org/][Julia]] is a new programming language. | |
| 2175 | ||
| 2176 | =ob-julia.el= provides Org Babel support for evaluating Julia source | |
| 2177 | code. | |
| 2178 | ||
| 2179 | *** ~ob-mathomatic.el~ by Luis Anaya | |
| 2180 | ||
| 2181 | [[http://www.mathomatic.org/][mathomatic]] a portable, command-line, educational CAS and calculator | |
| 2182 | software, written entirely in the C programming language. | |
| 2183 | ||
| 2184 | ~ob-mathomatic.el~ provides Org Babel support for evaluating mathomatic | |
| 2185 | entries. | |
| 2186 | ||
| 2187 | *** ~ob-tcl.el~ by Luis Anaya | |
| 2188 | ||
| 2189 | ~ob-tcl.el~ provides Org Babel support for evaluating [[http://www.tcl.tk/][Tcl]] source code. | |
| 2190 | ||
| 2191 | *** ~org-bullets.el~ by Evgeni Sabof | |
| 2192 | ||
| 2193 | Display bullets instead of stars for headlines. | |
| 2194 | ||
| 2195 | Also see [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#sec-8-12][this updated FAQ]] on how to display another character than "*" | |
| 2196 | for starting headlines. | |
| 2197 | ||
| 2198 | *** ~org-favtable.el~ by Marc-Oliver Ihm | |

| 2200 | ~org-favtable.el~ helps you to create and update a table of favorite | |
| 2201 | locations in org, keeping the most frequently visited lines right at | |
| 2202 | the top. This table is called "favtable". See the documentation on | |
| 2203 | [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-favtable.html][Worg]]. | |

| 2205 | *** ~ox-confluence.el~ by Sébastien Delafond | |
| 2206 | ||
| 2207 | ~ox-confluence.el~ lets you convert Org files to [[https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Confluence%2BWiki%2BMarkup][Confluence Wiki]] files. | |
| 2208 | ||
| 2209 | *** ~ox-deck.el~ and ~ox-s5.el~ by Rick Frankel | |
| 2210 | ||
| 2211 | [[http://imakewebthings.com/deck.js/][deck.js]] is a javascript library for displaying HTML ages as | |
| 2212 | presentations. ~ox-deck.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations | |
| 2213 | using =deck.js=. | |
| 2214 | ||
| 2215 | [[http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/][s5]] is a set of scripts which also allows to display HTML pages as | |
| 2216 | presentations. ~ox-s5.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations | |
| 2217 | using =s5=. | |
| 2218 | ||
| 2219 | *** ~ox-groff.el~ by Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou | |
| 2220 | ||
| 2221 | The [[https://www.gnu.org/software/groff/][groff]] (GNU troff) software is a typesetting package which reads | |
| 2222 | plain text mixed with formatting commands and produces formatted | |
| 2223 | output. | |
| 2224 | ||
| 2225 | Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou implemented ~ox-groff.el~ to allow | |
| 2226 | conversion from Org files to groff. | |
| 2227 | ||
| 2228 | *** ~ox-koma-letter.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and Alan Schmitt | |
| 2229 | ||
| 2230 | This back-end allow to export Org pages to the =KOMA Scrlttr2= format. | |
| 2231 | ||
| 2232 | *** ~ox-rss.el~ by Bastien | |
| 2233 | ||
| 2234 | This back-end lets you export Org pages to RSS 2.0 feeds. Combined | |
| 2235 | with the HTML publishing feature, this allows you to build a blog | |
| 2236 | entirely with Org. | |
| 2237 | ||
| 2238 | ** New features | |
| 2239 | ||
| 2240 | *** Export | |
| 2241 | ||
| 2242 | **** New export generic options | |
| 2243 | ||
| 2244 | If you use Org exporter, we advise you to re-read [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Exporting][the manual section about | |
| 2245 | it]]. It has been updated and includes new options. | |
| 2246 | ||
| 2247 | Among the new/updated export options, three are of particular importance: | |
| 2248 | ||
| 2249 | - [[doc:org-export-allow-bind-keywords][org-export-allow-bind-keywords]] :: This option replaces the old option | |
| 2250 | =org-export-allow-BIND= and the default value is =nil=, not =confirm=. | |
| 2251 | You will need to explicitly set this to =t= in your initialization | |
| 2252 | file if you want to allow =#+BIND= keywords. | |
| 2253 | ||
| 2254 | - [[doc:org-export-with-planning][org-export-with-planning]] :: This new option controls the export of | |
| 2255 | =SCHEDULED:, DEADLINE:, CLOSED:= lines, and planning information is | |
| 2256 | now skipped by default during export. This use to be the job of | |
| 2257 | [[doc:org-export-with-timestamps][org-export-with-timestamps]], but this latter option has been given a | |
| 2258 | new role: it controls the export of /standalone time-stamps/. When | |
| 2259 | set to =nil=, Org will not export active and inactive time-stamps | |
| 2260 | standing on a line by themselves or within a paragraph that only | |
| 2261 | contains time-stamps. | |
| 2262 | ||
| 2263 | To check if an option has been introduced or its default value changed in | |
| 2264 | Org 8.0, do =C-h v [option] RET= and check if the documentation says that | |
| 2265 | the variable has been introduced (or changed) in version 24.4 of Emacs. | |
| 2266 | ||
| 2267 | **** Enhanced default stylesheet for the HTML exporter | |
| 2268 | ||
| 2269 | See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-style-default][org-html-style-default]]. | |
| 2270 | ||
| 2271 | **** New tags, classes and ids for the HTML exporter | |
| 2272 | ||
| 2273 | See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-divs][org-html-divs]]. | |
| 2274 | ||
| 2275 | **** Support for tikz pictures in LaTeX export | |
| 2276 | **** ~org-man.el~: New export function for "man" links | |
| 2277 | **** ~org-docview.el~: New export function for docview links | |
| 2278 | *** Structure editing | |
| 2279 | ||
| 2280 | **** =C-u C-u M-RET= inserts a heading at the end of the parent subtree | |
| 2281 | **** Cycling to the =CONTENTS= view keeps inline tasks folded | |
| 2282 | ||
| 2283 | [[doc:org-cycle-hook][org-cycle-hook]] as a new function [[doc:org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks][org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks]] which | |
| 2284 | prevents the display of inline tasks when showing the content of a subtree. | |
| 2285 | ||
| 2286 | **** =C-c -= in a region makes a list item for each line | |
| 2287 | ||
| 2288 | This is the opposite of the previous behavior, where =C-c -= on a region | |
| 2289 | would create one item for the whole region, and where =C-u C-c -= would | |
| 2290 | create an item for each line. Now =C-c -= on the selected region creates | |
| 2291 | an item per line, and =C-u C-c -= creates a single item for the whole | |
| 2292 | region. | |
| 2293 | ||
| 2294 | **** When transposing words, markup characters are now part of the words | |
| 2295 | ||
| 2296 | In Emacs, you can transpose words with =M-t=. Transposing =*these* | |
| 2297 | _words__= will preserve markup. | |
| 2298 | ||
| 2299 | **** New command [[doc:org-set-property-and-value][org-set-property-and-value]] bound to =C-c C-x P= | |
| 2300 | ||
| 2301 | This command allows you to quickly add both the property and its value. It | |
| 2302 | is useful in buffers where there are many properties and where =C-c C-x p= | |
| 2303 | can slow down the flow of editing too much. | |
| 2304 | ||
| 2305 | **** New commands [[doc:org-next-block][org-next-block]] and [[doc:org-previous-block][org-previous-block]] | |
| 2306 | ||
| 2307 | These commands allow you to go to the previous block (=C-c M-b= or the | |
| 2308 | speedy key =B=) or to the next block (=C-c M-f= or the speedy key =F=.) | |
| 2309 | ||
| 2310 | **** New commands [[doc:org-drag-line-forward][org-drag-line-forward]] and [[doc:org-drag-line-backward][org-drag-line-backward]] | |
| 2311 | ||
| 2312 | These commands emulate the old behavior of =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= but are | |
| 2313 | now bound to =S-M-<down>= and =S-M-<up>= respectively, since =M-<down>= and | |
| 2314 | =M-<up>= now drag the whole element at point (a paragraph, a table, etc.) | |
| 2315 | forward and backward. | |
| 2316 | ||
| 2317 | **** When a list item has a checkbox, inserting a new item uses a checkbox too | |
| 2318 | **** When sorting entries/items, only the description of links is considered | |
| 2319 | ||
| 2320 | Now Org will sort this list | |
| 2321 | ||
| 2322 | : - [[http://abc.org][B]] | |
| 2323 | : - [[http://def.org][A]] | |
| 2324 | ||
| 2325 | like this: | |
| 2326 | ||
| 2327 | : - [[http://def.org][A]] | |
| 2328 | : - [[http://abc.org][B]] | |
| 2329 | ||
| 2330 | by comparing the descriptions, not the links. | |
| 2331 | Same when sorting headlines instead of list items. | |
| 2332 | **** New option =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= | |
| 2333 | ||
| 2334 | For example, setting this option to "^;;; " in Emacs lisp files and using | |
| 2335 | =orgstruct-mode= in those files will allow you to cycle through visibility | |
| 2336 | states as if lines starting with ";;; *..." where headlines. | |
| 2337 | ||
| 2338 | In general, you want to set =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= as a file | |
| 2339 | local variable. | |
| 2340 | ||
| 2341 | **** New behavior of [[doc:org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift][org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift]] | |
| 2342 | ||
| 2343 | The default is now to ask for a time-shift only when there is a time-stamp. | |
| 2344 | When called with a universal prefix argument =C-u=, it will not ask for a | |
| 2345 | time-shift even if there is a time-stamp. | |
| 2346 | ||
| 2347 | **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree][org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree]] | |
| 2348 | ||
| 2349 | This defaults to =t= so that the whole subtree is highlighted when you | |
| 2350 | restrict the agenda view to it with =C-c C-x <= (or the speed command =<=). | |
| 2351 | The default setting helps ensuring that you are not adding tasks after the | |
| 2352 | restricted region. If you find this highlighting too intrusive, set this | |
| 2353 | option to =nil=. | |
| 2354 | **** New option [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] | |
| 2355 | ||
| 2356 | When switching back from a =DONE= keyword to a =TODO= keyword, Org now | |
| 2357 | removes the =CLOSED= planning information, if any. It also removes this | |
| 2358 | information when going back to a non-TODO state (e.g., with =C-c C-t SPC=). | |
| 2359 | If you want to keep the =CLOSED= planning information when removing the | |
| 2360 | TODO keyword, set [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] to =t=. | |
| 2361 | ||
| 2362 | **** New option [[doc:org-image-actual-width][org-image-actual-width]] | |
| 2363 | ||
| 2364 | This option allows you to change the width of in-buffer displayed images. | |
| 2365 | The default is to use the actual width of the image, but you can use a | |
| 2366 | fixed value for all images, or fall back on an attribute like | |
| 2367 | ||
| 2368 | : #+attr_html: :width 300px | |
| 2369 | *** Scheduled/deadline | |
| 2370 | ||
| 2371 | **** Implement "delay" cookies for scheduled items | |
| 2372 | ||
| 2373 | If you want to delay the display of a scheduled task in the agenda, you can | |
| 2374 | now use a delay cookie like this: =SCHEDULED: <2004-12-25 Sat -2d>=. The | |
| 2375 | task is still scheduled on the 25th but will appear in your agenda starting | |
| 2376 | from two days later (i.e. from March 27th.) | |
| 2377 | ||
| 2378 | Imagine for example that your co-workers are not done in due time and tell | |
| 2379 | you "we need two more days". In that case, you may want to delay the | |
| 2380 | display of the task in your agenda by two days, but you still want the task | |
| 2381 | to appear as scheduled on March 25th. | |
| 2382 | ||
| 2383 | In case the task contains a repeater, the delay is considered to affect all | |
| 2384 | occurrences; if you want the delay to only affect the first scheduled | |
| 2385 | occurrence of the task, use =--2d= instead. See [[doc:org-scheduled-delay-days][org-scheduled-delay-days]] | |
| 2386 | and [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline]] for details on how to | |
| 2387 | control this globally or per agenda. | |
| 2388 | ||
| 2389 | **** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-s= will insert a delay cookie for scheduled tasks | |
| 2390 | ||
| 2391 | See the previous section for why delay cookies may be useful. | |
| 2392 | ||
| 2393 | **** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-d= will insert a warning delay for deadline tasks | |
| 2394 | ||
| 2395 | =C-u C-u C-c C-d= now inserts a warning delay to deadlines. | |
| 2396 | *** Calendar, diary and appts | |
| 2397 | ||
| 2398 | **** New variable [[doc:org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map][org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map]] | |
| 2399 | ||
| 2400 | By default, this new local map uses "." to go to today's date, like in the | |
| 2401 | normal =M-x calendar RET=. If you want to deactivate this and to reassign | |
| 2402 | the "@" key to =calendar-goto-today=, use this: | |
| 2403 | ||
| 2404 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp | |
| 2405 | ;; Unbind "." in Org's calendar: | |
| 2406 | (define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map (kbd ".") nil) | |
| 2407 | ||
| 2408 | ;; Bind "@" to `calendar-goto-today': | |
| 2409 | (define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map | |
| 2410 | (kbd "@") | |
| 2411 | (lambda () (interactive) (org-eval-in-calendar '(calendar-goto-today)))) | |
| 2412 | #+END_SRC | |
| 2413 | ||
| 2414 | **** In Org's calendar, =!= displays diary entries of the date at point | |
| 2415 | ||
| 2416 | This is useful when you want to check if you don't already have an | |
| 2417 | appointment when setting new ones with =C-c .= or =C-c s=. =!= will | |
| 2418 | call =diary-view-entries= and display the diary in a separate buffer. | |
| 2419 | ||
| 2420 | **** [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]]: only keep the descriptions of links | |
| 2421 | ||
| 2422 | [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]] returns diary information from Org files, but it returns it | |
| 2423 | in a diary buffer, not in an Org mode buffer. When links are displayed, | |
| 2424 | only show their description, not the full links. | |
| 2425 | *** Agenda | |
| 2426 | ||
| 2427 | **** New agenda type =agenda*= and entry types =:scheduled* :deadline*= | |
| 2428 | ||
| 2429 | When defining agenda custom commands, you can now use =agenda*=: this will | |
| 2430 | list entries that have both a date and a time. This is useful when you | |
| 2431 | want to build a list of appointments. | |
| 2432 | ||
| 2433 | You can also set [[doc:org-agenda-entry-types][org-agenda-entry-types]] either globally or locally in | |
| 2434 | each agenda custom command and use =:timestamp*= and/or =:deadline*= there. | |
| 2435 | ||
| 2436 | Another place where this is useful is your =.diary= file: | |
| 2437 | ||
| 2438 | : %%(org-diary :scheduled*) ~/org/rdv.org | |
| 2439 | ||
| 2440 | This will list only entries from =~/org/rdv.org= that are scheduled with a | |
| 2441 | time value (i.e. appointments). | |
| 2442 | ||
| 2443 | **** New agenda sorting strategies | |
| 2444 | ||
| 2445 | [[doc:org-agenda-sorting-strategy][org-agenda-sorting-strategy]] allows these new sorting strategies: | |
| 2446 | ||
| 2447 | | Strategy | Explanations | | |
| 2448 | |----------------+------------------------------------------| | |
| 2449 | | timestamp-up | Sort by any timestamp, early first | | |
| 2450 | | timestamp-down | Sort by any timestamp, late first | | |
| 2451 | | scheduled-up | Sort by scheduled timestamp, early first | | |
| 2452 | | scheduled-down | Sort by scheduled timestamp, late first | | |
| 2453 | | deadline-up | Sort by deadline timestamp, early first | | |
| 2454 | | deadline-down | Sort by deadline timestamp, late first | | |
| 2455 | | ts-up | Sort by active timestamp, early first | | |
| 2456 | | ts-down | Sort by active timestamp, late first | | |
| 2457 | | tsia-up | Sort by inactive timestamp, early first | | |
| 2458 | | tsia-down | Sort by inactive timestamp, late first | | |
| 2459 | ||
| 2460 | **** New options to limit the number of agenda entries | |
| 2461 | ||
| 2462 | You can now limit the number of entries in an agenda view. This is | |
| 2463 | different from filters: filters only /hide/ the entries in the agenda, | |
| 2464 | while limits are set while generating the list of agenda entries. | |
| 2465 | ||
| 2466 | These new options are available: | |
| 2467 | ||
| 2468 | - [[doc:org-agenda-max-entries][org-agenda-max-entries]] :: limit by number of entries. | |
| 2469 | - [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] :: limit by number of TODOs. | |
| 2470 | - [[doc:org-agenda-max-tags][org-agenda-max-tags]] :: limit by number of tagged entries. | |
| 2471 | - [[doc:org-agenda-max-effort][org-agenda-max-effort]] :: limit by effort (minutes). | |
| 2472 | ||
| 2473 | For example, if you locally set [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] to 3 in an agenda | |
| 2474 | view, the agenda will be limited to the first three todos. Other entries | |
| 2475 | without a TODO keyword or beyond the third TODO headline will be ignored. | |
| 2476 | ||
| 2477 | When setting a limit (e.g. about an effort's sum), the default behavior is | |
| 2478 | to exclude entries that cannot be checked against (e.g. entries that have | |
| 2479 | no effort property.) To include other entries too, you can set the limit | |
| 2480 | to a negative number. For example =(setq org-agenda-max-tags -3)= will not | |
| 2481 | show the fourth tagged headline (and beyond), but it will also show | |
| 2482 | non-tagged headlines. | |
| 2483 | ||
| 2484 | **** =~= in agenda view sets temporary limits | |
| 2485 | ||
| 2486 | You can hit =~= in the agenda to temporarily set limits: this will | |
| 2487 | regenerate the agenda as if the limits were set. This is useful for | |
| 2488 | example when you want to only see a list of =N= tasks, or a list of tasks | |
| 2489 | that take only =N= minutes. | |
| 2490 | ||
| 2491 | **** "=" in agenda view filters by regular expressions | |
| 2492 | ||
| 2493 | You can now filter agenda entries by regular expressions using ~=~. =C-u | |
| 2494 | == will filter entries out. Regexp filters are cumulative. You can set | |
| 2495 | [[doc:org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset][org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset]] to suit your needs in each agenda view. | |
| 2496 | ||
| 2497 | **** =|= in agenda view resets all filters | |
| 2498 | ||
| 2499 | Since it's common to combine tag filters, category filters, and now regexp | |
| 2500 | filters, there is a new command =|= to reset all filters at once. | |
| 2501 | ||
| 2502 | **** Allow writing an agenda to an =.org= file | |
| 2503 | ||
| 2504 | You can now write an agenda view to an =.org= file. It copies the | |
| 2505 | headlines and their content (but not subheadings) into the new file. | |
| 2506 | ||
| 2507 | This is useful when you want to quickly share an agenda containing the full | |
| 2508 | list of notes. | |
| 2509 | ||
| 2510 | **** New commands to drag an agenda line forward (=M-<down>=) or backward (=M-<up>=) | |
| 2511 | ||
| 2512 | It sometimes handy to move agenda lines around, just to quickly reorganize | |
| 2513 | your tasks, or maybe before saving the agenda to a file. Now you can use | |
| 2514 | =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= to move the line forward or backward. | |
| 2515 | ||
| 2516 | This does not persist after a refresh of the agenda, and this does not | |
| 2517 | change the =.org= files who contribute to the agenda. | |
| 2518 | ||
| 2519 | **** Use =%b= for displaying "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view | |
| 2520 | ||
| 2521 | [[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] now allows to use a =%b= formatter to tell Org | |
| 2522 | to display "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view. | |
| 2523 | ||
| 2524 | This is useful when you want to display the task hierarchy in your agenda. | |
| 2525 | ||
| 2526 | **** Use =%l= for displaying the headline's level in the agenda view | |
| 2527 | ||
| 2528 | [[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] allows to use a =%l= formatter to tell Org to | |
| 2529 | display entries with additional spaces corresponding to their level in the | |
| 2530 | outline tree. | |
| 2531 | ||
| 2532 | **** [[doc:org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] will ask before overwriting an existing file | |
| 2533 | ||
| 2534 | =M-x org-agenda-write RET= (or =C-c C-w= from an agenda buffer) used to | |
| 2535 | overwrite preexisting file with the same name without confirmation. It now | |
| 2536 | asks for a confirmation. | |
| 2537 | ||
| 2538 | **** New commands =M-m= and =M-*= to toggle (all) mark(s) for bulk action | |
| 2539 | ||
| 2540 | - [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle][org-agenda-bulk-toggle]] :: this command is bound to =M-m= and toggles | |
| 2541 | the mark of the entry at point. | |
| 2542 | ||
| 2543 | - [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all][org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all]] :: this command is bound to =M-*= and | |
| 2544 | toggles all the marks in the current agenda. | |
| 2545 | ||
| 2546 | **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level][org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level]] | |
| 2547 | ||
| 2548 | This option sets the maximum outline level to display in search view. | |
| 2549 | E.g. when this is set to 1, the search view will only show headlines of | |
| 2550 | level 1. | |
| 2551 | ||
| 2552 | **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds][org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds]] | |
| 2553 | ||
| 2554 | This allows to compare times using seconds instead of days when honoring | |
| 2555 | options like =org-agenda-todo-ignore-*= in the agenda display. | |
| 2556 | ||
| 2557 | **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-entry-text-leaders][org-agenda-entry-text-leaders]] | |
| 2558 | ||
| 2559 | This allows you to get rid of the ">" character that gets added in front of | |
| 2560 | entries excerpts when hitting =E= in the agenda view. | |
| 2561 | ||
| 2562 | **** New formatting string for past deadlines in [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]] | |
| 2563 | ||
| 2564 | The default formatting for past deadlines is ="%2d d. ago: "=, which makes | |
| 2565 | it explicit that the deadline is in the past. You can configure this via | |
| 2566 | [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]. Note that the width of the formatting | |
| 2567 | string is important to keep the agenda alignment clean. | |
| 2568 | ||
| 2569 | **** New allowed value =repeated-after-deadline= for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] | |
| 2570 | ||
| 2571 | When [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] is set to | |
| 2572 | =repeated-after-deadline=, the agenda will skip scheduled items if they are | |
| 2573 | repeated beyond the current deadline. | |
| 2574 | ||
| 2575 | **** New option for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled][org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled]] | |
| 2576 | ||
| 2577 | This variable may be set to nil, t, the symbol `pre-scheduled', or a number | |
| 2578 | which will then give the number of days before the actual deadline when the | |
| 2579 | prewarnings should resume. The symbol `pre-scheduled' eliminates the | |
| 2580 | deadline prewarning only prior to the scheduled date. | |
| 2581 | ||
| 2582 | Read the full docstring for details. | |
| 2583 | ||
| 2584 | **** [[doc:org-class][org-class]] now supports holiday strings in the skip-weeks parameter | |
| 2585 | ||
| 2586 | For example, this task will now be skipped only on new year's day: | |
| 2587 | ||
| 2588 | : * Task | |
| 2589 | : <%%(org-class 2012 1 1 2013 12 12 2 "New Year's Day")> | |
| 2590 | *** Capture | |
| 2591 | ||
| 2592 | **** Allow =C-1= as a prefix for [[doc:org-agenda-capture][org-agenda-capture]] and [[doc:org-capture][org-capture]] | |
| 2593 | ||
| 2594 | With a =C-1= prefix, the capture mechanism will use the =HH:MM= value at | |
| 2595 | point (if any) or the current =HH:MM= time as the default time for the | |
| 2596 | capture template. | |
| 2597 | ||
| 2598 | **** Expand keywords within %(sexp) placeholder in capture templates | |
| 2599 | ||
| 2600 | If you use a =%:keyword= construct within a =%(sexp)= construct, Org will | |
| 2601 | expand the keywords before expanding the =%(sexp)=. | |
| 2602 | ||
| 2603 | **** Allow to contextualize capture (and agenda) commands by checking the name of the buffer | |
| 2604 | ||
| 2605 | [[doc:org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] and [[doc:org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]] | |
| 2606 | allow you to define what capture templates and what agenda commands should | |
| 2607 | be available in various contexts. It is now possible for the context to | |
| 2608 | check against the name of the buffer. | |
| 2609 | *** Tag groups | |
| 2610 | ||
| 2611 | Using =#+TAGS: { Tag1 : Tag2 Tag3 }= will define =Tag1= as a /group tag/ | |
| 2612 | (note the colon after =Tag1=). If you search for =Tag1=, it will return | |
| 2613 | headlines containing either =Tag1=, =Tag2= or =Tag3= (or any combination | |
| 2614 | of those tags.) | |
| 2615 | ||
| 2616 | You can use group tags for sparse tree in an Org buffer, for creating | |
| 2617 | agenda views, and for filtering. | |
| 2618 | ||
| 2619 | See https://orgmode.org/org.html#Tag-groups for details. | |
| 2620 | ||
| 2621 | *** Links | |
| 2622 | ||
| 2623 | **** =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= will ignore non-core link functions | |
| 2624 | ||
| 2625 | Org knows how to store links from Org buffers, from info files and from | |
| 2626 | other Emacs buffers. Org can be taught how to store links from any buffer | |
| 2627 | through new link protocols (see [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Adding-hyperlink-types]["Adding hyperlink types"]] in the manual.) | |
| 2628 | ||
| 2629 | Sometimes you want Org to ignore added link protocols and store the link | |
| 2630 | as if the protocol was not known. | |
| 2631 | ||
| 2632 | You can now do this with =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET=. | |
| 2633 | ||
| 2634 | **** =C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= on an active region will store links for each lines | |
| 2635 | ||
| 2636 | Imagine for example that you want to store a link for every message in a | |
| 2637 | Gnus summary buffer. In that case =C-x h C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link | |
| 2638 | RET= will store a link for every line (i.e. message) if the region is | |
| 2639 | active. | |
| 2640 | ||
| 2641 | **** =C-c C-M-l= will add a default description for links which don't have one | |
| 2642 | ||
| 2643 | =C-c C-M-l= inserts all stored links. If a link does not have a | |
| 2644 | description, this command now adds a default one, so that we are not mixing | |
| 2645 | with-description and without-description links when inserting them. | |
| 2646 | ||
| 2647 | **** No curly braces to bracket links within internal links | |
| 2648 | ||
| 2649 | When storing a link to a headline like | |
| 2650 | ||
| 2651 | : * See [[https://orgmode.org][Org website]] | |
| 2652 | ||
| 2653 | [[doc:org-store-link][org-store-link]] used to convert the square brackets into curly brackets. | |
| 2654 | It does not anymore, taking the link description or the link path, when | |
| 2655 | there is no description. | |
| 2656 | *** Table | |
| 2657 | ||
| 2658 | **** Switching between #+TBLFM lines | |
| 2659 | ||
| 2660 | If you have several =#+TBLFM= lines below a table, =C-c C-c= on a line will | |
| 2661 | apply the formulas from this line, and =C-c C-c= on another line will apply | |
| 2662 | those other formulas. | |
| 2663 | ||
| 2664 | **** You now use "nan" for empty fields in Calc formulas | |
| 2665 | ||
| 2666 | If empty fields are of interest, it is recommended to reread the section | |
| 2667 | [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc][3.5.2 Formula syntax for Calc]] of the manual because the description for the | |
| 2668 | mode strings has been clarified and new examples have been added towards | |
| 2669 | the end. | |
| 2670 | ||
| 2671 | **** Handle localized time-stamps in formulas evaluation | |
| 2672 | ||
| 2673 | If your =LOCALE= is set so that Org time-stamps use another language than | |
| 2674 | english, and if you make time computations in Org's table, it now works by | |
| 2675 | internally converting the time-stamps with a temporary =LOCALE=C= before | |
| 2676 | doing computation. | |
| 2677 | ||
| 2678 | **** New lookup functions | |
| 2679 | ||
| 2680 | There are now three lookup functions: | |
| 2681 | ||
| 2682 | - [[doc:org-loopup-first][org-loopup-first]] | |
| 2683 | - [[doc:org-loopup-last][org-loopup-last]] | |
| 2684 | - [[doc:org-loopup-all][org-loopup-all]] | |
| 2685 | ||
| 2686 | See [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Lookup-functions][the manual]] for details. | |
| 2687 | *** Startup keywords | |
| 2688 | ||
| 2689 | These new startup keywords are now available: | |
| 2690 | ||
| 2691 | | Startup keyword | Option | | |
| 2692 | |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------| | |
| 2693 | | =#+STARTUP: logdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer t)= | | |
| 2694 | | =#+STARTUP: nologdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer nil)= | | |
| 2695 | |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------| | |
| 2696 | | =#+STARTUP: logstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed t)= | | |
| 2697 | | =#+STARTUP: nologstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed nil)= | | |
| 2698 | |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------| | |
| 2699 | | =#+STARTUP: latexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview t)= | | |
| 2700 | | =#+STARTUP: nolatexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview nil)= | | |
| 2701 | ||
| 2702 | *** Clocking | |
| 2703 | ||
| 2704 | **** New option [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] | |
| 2705 | ||
| 2706 | E.g. if [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] is set to 5, time is 14:47 and you | |
| 2707 | clock in: then the clock starts at 14:45. If you clock out within the next | |
| 2708 | 5 minutes, the clock line will be removed; if you clock out 8 minutes after | |
| 2709 | your clocked in, the clock out time will be 14:50. | |
| 2710 | ||
| 2711 | **** New option [[doc:org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations][org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations]] | |
| 2712 | ||
| 2713 | When non-nil, =C-c C-x C-d= uses effort durations. E.g., by default, one | |
| 2714 | day is considered to be a 8 hours effort, so a task that has been clocked | |
| 2715 | for 16 hours will be displayed as during 2 days in the clock display or in | |
| 2716 | the clocktable. | |
| 2717 | ||
| 2718 | See [[doc:org-effort-durations][org-effort-durations]] on how to set effort durations and | |
| 2719 | [[doc:org-time-clocksum-format][org-time-clocksum-format]] for more on time clock formats. | |
| 2720 | ||
| 2721 | **** New option [[doc:org-clock-x11idle-program-name][org-clock-x11idle-program-name]] | |
| 2722 | ||
| 2723 | This allows to set the name of the program which prints X11 idle time in | |
| 2724 | milliseconds. The default is to use =x11idle=. | |
| 2725 | ||
| 2726 | **** New option [[doc:org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time][org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time]] | |
| 2727 | ||
| 2728 | When non-nil, use the last clock out time for [[doc:org-todo][org-todo]]. Note that this | |
| 2729 | option has precedence over the combined use of [[doc:org-use-effective-time][org-use-effective-time]] and | |
| 2730 | [[doc:org-extend-today-until][org-extend-today-until]]. | |
| 2731 | ||
| 2732 | **** =S-<left/right>= on a clocksum column will update the sum by updating the last clock | |
| 2733 | **** =C-u 3 C-S-<up/down>= will update clock timestamps synchronously by 3 units | |
| 2734 | **** New parameter =:wstart= for clocktables to define the week start day | |
| 2735 | **** New parameter =:mstart= to state the starting day of the month | |
| 2736 | **** Allow relative times in clocktable tstart and tend options | |
| 2737 | **** The clocktable summary is now a caption | |
| 2738 | **** =:tstart= and =:tend= and friends allow relative times like "<-1w>" or "<now>" | |
| 2739 | *** Babel | |
| 2740 | ||
| 2741 | **** You can now use =C-c C-k= for [[doc:org-edit-src-abort][org-edit-src-abort]] | |
| 2742 | ||
| 2743 | This allows you to quickly cancel editing a source block. | |
| 2744 | ||
| 2745 | **** =C-u C-u M-x org-babel-tangle RET= tangles by the target file of the block at point | |
| 2746 | ||
| 2747 | This is handy if you want to tangle all source code blocks that have the | |
| 2748 | same target than the block at point. | |
| 2749 | ||
| 2750 | **** New options for auto-saving the base buffer or the source block editing buffer | |
| 2751 | ||
| 2752 | When [[doc:org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save][org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save]] is set to =t=, editing a source block | |
| 2753 | in a new window will turn on =auto-save-mode= and save the code in a new | |
| 2754 | file under the same directory than the base Org file. | |
| 2755 | ||
| 2756 | When [[doc:org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay][org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay]] is set to a number of minutes =N=, | |
| 2757 | the base Org buffer will be saved after this number of minutes of idle | |
| 2758 | time. | |
| 2759 | ||
| 2760 | **** New =:post= header argument post-processes results | |
| 2761 | ||
| 2762 | This header argument may be used to pass the results of the current | |
| 2763 | code block through another code block for post-processing. See the | |
| 2764 | manual for a usage example. | |
| 2765 | ||
| 2766 | **** Commented out heading are ignored when collecting blocks for tangling | |
| 2767 | ||
| 2768 | If you comment out a heading (with =C-c ;= anywhere on the heading or in | |
| 2769 | the subtree), code blocks from within this heading are now ignored when | |
| 2770 | collecting blocks for tangling. | |
| 2771 | ||
| 2772 | **** New option [[doc:org-babel-hash-show-time][org-babel-hash-show-time]] to show a time-stamp in the result hash | |
| 2773 | **** Do not ask for confirmation if cached value is current | |
| 2774 | ||
| 2775 | Do not run [[doc:org-babel-confirm-evaluate][org-babel-confirm-evaluate]] if source block has a cache and the | |
| 2776 | cache value is current as there is no evaluation involved in this case. | |
| 2777 | **** =ob-sql.el= and =ob-python.el= have been improved. | |
| 2778 | **** New Babel files only need to =(require 'ob)= | |
| 2779 | ||
| 2780 | When writing a new Babel file, you now only need to use =(require 'ob)= | |
| 2781 | instead of requiring each Babel library one by one. | |
| 2782 | *** Faces | |
| 2783 | ||
| 2784 | - Org now fontifies radio link targets by default | |
| 2785 | - In the agenda, use [[doc:org-todo-keyword-faces][org-todo-keyword-faces]] to highlight selected TODO keywords | |
| 2786 | - New face [[doc:org-priority][org-priority]], enhanced fontification of priority cookies in agenda | |
| 2787 | - New face [[doc:org-tag-group][org-tag-group]] for group tags | |
| 2788 | ||
| 2789 | ** Miscellaneous | |
| 2790 | ||
| 2791 | - New speedy key =s= pour [[doc:org-narrow-to-subtree][org-narrow-to-subtree]] | |
| 2792 | - Handling of [[doc:org-html-table-row][org-html-table-row]] has been updated (incompatible change) | |
| 2793 | - [[doc:org-export-html-table-tag][org-export-html-table-tag]] is replaced by [[doc:org-html-table-default-attributes][org-html-table-default-attributes]] | |
| 2794 | - Support using =git-annex= with Org attachments | |
| 2795 | - org-protocol: Pass optional value using query in url to capture from protocol | |
| 2796 | - When the refile history is empty, use the current filename as default | |
| 2797 | - When you cannot change the TODO state of a task, Org displays the blocking task | |
| 2798 | - New option [[doc:org-mobile-allpriorities][org-mobile-allpriorities]] | |
| 2799 | - org-bibtex.el now use =visual-line-mode= instead of the deprecated =longlines-mode= | |
| 2800 | - [[doc:org-format-latex-options][org-format-latex-options]] allows to set the foreground/background colors automatically | |
| 2801 | - New option [[doc:org-archive-file-header-format][org-archive-file-header-format]] | |
| 2802 | - New "neg" entity in [[doc:org-entities][org-entities]] | |
| 2803 | - New function [[doc:org-docview-export][org-docview-export]] to export docview links | |
| 2804 | - New =:eps= header argument for ditaa code blocks | |
| 2805 | - New option [[doc:org-gnus-no-server][org-gnus-no-server]] to start Gnus with =gnus-no-server= | |
| 2806 | - Org is now distributed with =htmlize.el= version 1.43 | |
| 2807 | - ~org-drill.el~ has been updated to version 2.3.7 | |
| 2808 | - ~org-mac-iCal.el~ now supports OS X versions up to 10.8 | |
| 2809 | - Various improvements to ~org-contacts.el~ and =orgpan.el= | |
| 2810 | ||
| 2811 | ** Outside Org | |
| 2812 | ||
| 2813 | *** Spanish translation of the Org guide by David Arroyo Menéndez | |
| 2814 | ||
| 2815 | David (and others) translated the Org compact guide in spanish: | |
| 2816 | ||
| 2817 | You can read the [[https://orgmode.org/worg/orgguide/orgguide.es.pdf][PDF guide]]. | |
| 2818 | ||
| 2819 | *** ~poporg.el~ and ~outorg.el~ | |
| 2820 | ||
| 2821 | Two new libraries (~poporg.el~ by François Pinard and ~outorg.el~ by | |
| 2822 | Thorsten Jolitz) now enable editing of comment-sections from source-code | |
| 2823 | buffers in temporary Org-mode buffers, making the full editing power of | |
| 2824 | Org-mode available. ~outorg.el~ comes together with ~outshine.el~ and | |
| 2825 | ~navi-mode.el~, two more libraries by Thorsten Jolitz with the goal to give | |
| 2826 | source-code buffers the /look & feel/ of Org-mode buffers while greatly | |
| 2827 | improving navigation and structure editing. A detailed description can be | |
| 2828 | found here: https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html | |
| 2829 | ||
| 2830 | Here are two screencasts demonstrating Thorsten's tools: | |
| 2831 | ||
| 2832 | - [[http://youtu.be/nqE6YxlY0rw]["Modern conventions for Emacs Lisp files"]] | |
| 2833 | - [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v%3DII-xYw5VGFM][Exploring Bernt Hansen's Org-mode tutorial with 'navi-mode']] | |
| 2834 | ||
| 2835 | *** MobileOrg for iOS | |
| 2836 | ||
| 2837 | MobileOrg for iOS back in the App Store The 1.6.0 release was focused on | |
| 2838 | the new Dropbox API and minor bug fixes but also includes a new ability to | |
| 2839 | launch in Capture mode. Track development and contribute [[https://github.com/MobileOrg/mobileorg/issues][on github]]. | |
| 2840 | ||
| 2841 | * Version 7.9.3 | |
| 2842 | ||
| 2843 | ** New option [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]] | |
| 2844 | ||
| 2845 | [[doc::org-use-tag-inheritance][org-use-tag-inheritance]] controls whether tags are inherited when | |
| 2846 | org-tags-view is called (either in =tags=, =tags-tree= or =tags-todo= | |
| 2847 | agenda views.) | |
| 2848 | ||
| 2849 | When generating other agenda types such as =agenda=, =todo= and | |
| 2850 | =todo-tree=, tags inheritance is not used when selecting the entries | |
| 2851 | to display. Still, you might want to have all tag information correct | |
| 2852 | in the agenda buffer, e.g. for tag filtering. In that case, add the | |
| 2853 | agenda type to this variable. | |
| 2854 | ||
| 2855 | Setting this variable to nil should considerably speeds up the agenda | |
| 2856 | generation. | |
| 2857 | ||
| 2858 | Note that the default was to display inherited tags in the agenda | |
| 2859 | lines even if `org-use-tag-inheritance' was nil. The default is now | |
| 2860 | to *never* display inherited tags in agenda lines, but to /know/ about | |
| 2861 | them when the agenda type is listed in [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]]. | |
| 2862 | ||
| 2863 | ** New default value nil for [[doc::org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks][org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks]] | |
| 2864 | ||
| 2865 | Using `nil' as the default value speeds up the agenda generation. You | |
| 2866 | can hit `#' (or `C-u #') in agenda buffers to temporarily dim (or turn | |
| 2867 | invisible) blocked tasks. | |
| 2868 | ||
| 2869 | ** New speedy keys for [[doc::org-speed-commands-default][org-speed-commands-default]] | |
| 2870 | ||
| 2871 | You can now use `:' (instead of `;') for setting tags---this is | |
| 2872 | consistent with using the `:' key in agenda view. | |
| 2873 | ||
| 2874 | You can now use `=' for [[doc::org-columns][org-columns]]. | |
| 2875 | ||
| 2876 | ** =org-float= is now obsolete, use =diary-float= instead | |
| 2877 | ** No GPL manual anymore | |
| 2878 | ||
| 2879 | There used to be a GPL version of the Org manual, but this is not the | |
| 2880 | case anymore, the Free Software Foundation does not permit this. | |
| 2881 | ||
| 2882 | The GNU FDL license is now included in the manual directly. | |
| 2883 | ||
| 2884 | ** Enhanced compatibility with Emacs 22 and XEmacs | |
| 2885 | ||
| 2886 | Thanks to Achim for his work on enhancing Org's compatibility with | |
| 2887 | various Emacsen. Things may not be perfect, but Org should work okay | |
| 2888 | in most environments. | |
| 2889 | ||
| 2890 | * Version 7.9.2 | |
| 2891 | ||
| 2892 | ** New ELPA repository for Org packages | |
| 2893 | ||
| 2894 | You can now add the Org ELPA repository like this: | |
| 2895 | ||
| 2896 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp | |
| 2897 | (add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/") t) | |
| 2898 | #+END_SRC | |
| 2899 | ||
| 2900 | It contains both the =org-*.tar= package (the core Org distribution, also | |
| 2901 | available through https://elpa.gnu.org) and the =org-plus*.tar= package (the | |
| 2902 | extended Org distribution, with non-GNU packages from the =contrib/= | |
| 2903 | directory.) | |
| 2904 | ||
| 2905 | See https://orgmode.org/elpa/ | |
| 2906 | ||
| 2907 | ** Overview of the new keybindings | |
| 2908 | ||
| 2909 | | Keybinding | Speedy | Command | | |

| 2925 | ** New package and Babel language | |
| 2926 | ||
| 2927 | *** =org-eshell.el= by Konrad Hinsen is now in Org | |
| 2928 | ||
| 2929 | =org-eshell.el= allows you to create links from [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eshell/index.html][Eshell]]. | |
| 2930 | ||
| 2931 | *** Support for execution of Scala code blocks (see ob-scala.el) | |
| 2932 | *** Support for execution of IO code blocks (see ob-io.el) | |
| 2933 | ||
| 2934 | ** Incompatible changes | |
| 2935 | ||
| 2936 | - If your code relies on =org-write-agenda=, please use | |
| 2937 | [[doc::org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] from now on. | |
| 2938 | ||
| 2939 | - If your code relies on =org-make-link=, please use =concat= | |
| 2940 | instead. | |
| 2941 | ||
| 2942 | - =org-link-to-org-use-id= has been renamed to | |
| 2943 | =org-id-link-to-org-use-id= and its default value is nil. The | |
| 2944 | previous default was =create-if-interactive-and-no-custom-id=. | |
| 2945 | ||
| 2946 | ** New features and user-visible changes | |
| 2947 | ||
| 2948 | *** Org Element | |
| 2949 | ||
| 2950 | =org-element.el= is a toolbox for parsing and analyzing "elements" | |
| 2951 | in an Org-mode buffer. This has been written by Nicolas Goaziou | |
| 2952 | and has been tested for quite some time. It is now part of Org's | |
| 2953 | core and many core functions rely on this package. | |
| 2954 | ||
| 2955 | Two functions might be particularly handy for users: | |
| 2956 | =org-element-at-point= and =org-element-context=. | |
| 2957 | ||
| 2958 | See the docstrings for more details. | |
| 2959 | ||
| 2960 | Below is a list of editing and navigating commands that now rely | |
| 2961 | on =org-element.el=. | |
| 2962 | ||
| 2963 | **** [[doc::org-fill-paragraph][org-fill-paragraph]] has been completely rewritten | |
| 2964 | ||
| 2965 | The filling mechanisms now rely on org-element, trying to do the | |
| 2966 | right thing on each element in various contexts. E.g. filling in | |
| 2967 | a list item will preserve indentation; filling in message-mode | |
| 2968 | will fall back on the relevant filling functions; etc. | |
| 2969 | ||
| 2970 | **** [[doc::org-metaup][org-metaup]] and [[doc::org-metadown][org-metadown]] will drag the element backward/forward | |
| 2971 | ||
| 2972 | If you want to get the old behavior (i.e. moving a line up and | |
| 2973 | down), you can first select the line as an active region, then | |
| 2974 | =org-metaup= or =org-metadown= to move the region backward or | |
| 2975 | forward. This also works with regions bigger than just one line. | |
| 2976 | ||
| 2977 | **** [[doc::org-up-element][org-up-element]] and [[doc::org-down-element][org-down-element]] (respectively =C-c C-^= and =C-c C-_=) | |
| 2978 | ||
| 2979 | This will move the point up/down in the hierarchy of elements. | |
| 2980 | ||
| 2981 | **** [[doc::org-backward-element][org-backward-element]] and [[doc::org-forward-element][org-forward-element]] (respectively =M-{= and =M-}=) | |
| 2982 | ||
| 2983 | This will move the point backward/forward in the hierarchy of | |
| 2984 | elements. | |
| 2985 | ||
| 2986 | **** [[doc::org-narrow-to-element][org-narrow-to-element]] will narrow to the element at point | |
| 2987 | **** [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] will mark the element at point | |
| 2988 | ||
| 2989 | This command is bound to =M-h= and will mark the element at | |
| 2990 | point. If the point is at a paragraph, it will mark the | |
| 2991 | paragraph. If the point is at a list item, it will mark the list | |
| 2992 | item. Etc. | |
| 2993 | ||
| 2994 | Note that if point is at the beginning of a list, it will mark | |
| 2995 | the whole list. | |
| 2996 | ||
| 2997 | To mark a subtree, you can either use =M-h= on the headline | |
| 2998 | (since there is no ambiguity about the element you're at) or | |
| 2999 | [[doc::org-mark-subtree][org-mark-subtree]] (=C-c @=) anywhere in the subtree. | |
| 3000 | ||
| 3001 | Invoking [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] repeatedly will try to mark the next | |
| 3002 | element on top of the previous one(s). E.g. hitting =M-h= twice | |
| 3003 | on a headline will mark the current subtree and the next one on | |
| 3004 | the same level. | |
| 3005 | ||
| 3006 | *** Org Agenda | |
| 3007 | ||
| 3008 | **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] | |
| 3009 | ||
| 3010 | There is a new option =org-agenda-sticky= which enables "sticky" | |
| 3011 | agendas. Sticky agendas remain opened in the background so that | |
| 3012 | you don't need to regenerate them each time you hit the | |
| 3013 | corresponding keystroke. This is a big time saver. | |
| 3014 | ||
| 3015 | When [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is =non-nil=, the agenda buffer will be | |
| 3016 | named using the agenda key and its description. In sticky | |
| 3017 | agendas, the =q= key will just bury the agenda buffers and | |
| 3018 | further agenda commands will show existing buffer instead of | |
| 3019 | generating new ones. | |
| 3020 | ||
| 3021 | If [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is set to =nil=, =q= will kill the single | |
| 3022 | agenda buffer. | |
| 3023 | ||
| 3024 | **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]] | |
| 3025 | ||
| 3026 | Setting this option allows you to define specific context where | |
| 3027 | agenda commands should be available from. For example, when set | |
| 3028 | to this value | |
| 3029 | ||
| 3030 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp | |
| 3031 | (setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts | |
| 3032 | '(("p" (in-file . "\\.txt")))) | |
| 3033 | #+END_SRC | |
| 3034 | ||
| 3035 | then the =p= agenda command will only be available from buffers | |
| 3036 | visiting *.txt files. See the docstring and the manual for more | |
| 3037 | details on how to use this. | |
| 3038 | ||
| 3039 | **** Changes in bulk actions | |
| 3040 | ||
| 3041 | The set of commands starting with =k ...= as been deleted and the | |
| 3042 | features have been merged into the "bulk action" feature. | |
| 3043 | ||
| 3044 | After you marked some entries in the agenda, if you call =B s=, | |
| 3045 | the agenda entries will be rescheduled using the date at point if | |
| 3046 | on a date header. If you are on an entry with a timestamp, you | |
| 3047 | will be prompted for a date to reschedule your marked entries to, | |
| 3048 | using the timestamp at point as the default prompt. | |
| 3049 | ||
| 3050 | You can now use =k= to capture the marked entry and use the date | |
| 3051 | at point as an overriding date for the capture template. | |
| 3052 | ||
| 3053 | To bind this behavior to =M-x org-capture RET= (or its | |
| 3054 | keybinding), set the new option [[doc::org-capture-use-agenda-date][org-capture-use-agenda-date]] to | |
| 3055 | =t=. | |
| 3056 | ||
| 3057 | **** =N= and =P= in the agenda will move to the next/previous item | |
| 3058 | ||
| 3059 | **** New command [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-all][org-agenda-bulk-mark-all]] to mark all items | |
| 3060 | ||
| 3061 | This new command is bound to =*= in agenda mode. | |
| 3062 | ||
| 3063 | There is also a new option [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-char][org-agenda-bulk-mark-char]] to set the | |
| 3064 | character to use as a mark for bulk actions. | |
| 3065 | ||
| 3066 | **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-persistent-marks][org-agenda-persistent-marks]] | |
| 3067 | ||
| 3068 | When set to =non-nil=, marks will remain visible after a bulk | |
| 3069 | action. You can temporarily toggle this by pressing =p= when | |
| 3070 | invoking [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-action][org-agenda-bulk-action]]. Marks are deleted if your | |
| 3071 | rebuild the agenda buffer or move to another date/span (e.g. with | |
| 3072 | =f= or =w=). | |
| 3073 | ||
| 3074 | **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown]] | |
| 3075 | ||
| 3076 | =Non-nil= means skip timestamp line if same entry shows because | |
| 3077 | of deadline. | |
| 3078 | ||
| 3079 | In the agenda of today, an entry can show up multiple times | |
| 3080 | because it has both a plain timestamp and has a nearby deadline. | |
| 3081 | When this variable is t, then only the deadline is shown and the | |
| 3082 | fact that the entry has a timestamp for or including today is not | |
| 3083 | shown. When this variable is =nil=, the entry will be shown | |
| 3084 | several times. | |
| 3085 | ||
| 3086 | **** New =todo-unblocked= and =nottodo-unblocked= skip conditions | |
| 3087 | ||
| 3088 | See the [[https://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=f426da][git commit]] for more explanations. | |
| 3089 | ||
| 3090 | **** Allow category filtering in the agenda | |
| 3091 | ||
| 3092 | You can now filter the agenda by category. Pressing "<" will | |
| 3093 | filter by the category of the item on the current line, and | |
| 3094 | pressing "<" again will remove the filter. You can combine tag | |
| 3095 | filters and category filters. | |
| 3096 | ||
| 3097 | You can use =org-agenda-category-filter= in your custom agenda | |
| 3098 | views and =org-agenda-category-filter-preset= in your main | |
| 3099 | configuration. | |
| 3100 | ||
| 3101 | See also the new command [[doc::org-agenda-filter-by-top-category][org-agenda-filter-by-top-category]]: | |
| 3102 | hitting =^= will filter by "Top" category: only show entries that | |
| 3103 | are of the same category than the Top category of the entry at | |
| 3104 | point. | |
| 3105 | ||
| 3106 | *** Org Links | |
| 3107 | ||
| 3108 | **** Inserting links | |
| 3109 | ||
| 3110 | When inserting links through [[doc::org-insert-link][org-insert-link]], the description is | |
| 3111 | now displayed first, followed by the literal link, as the | |
| 3112 | description is often more useful when you look for the link you | |
| 3113 | want to insert. | |
| 3114 | ||
| 3115 | Completion now complete both literal links and description. If | |
| 3116 | you complete a description, the literal link and its description | |
| 3117 | will be inserted directly, whereas when you complete the literal | |
| 3118 | link, you will be prompted for a description (as with Org 7.8.) | |
| 3119 | ||
| 3120 | In the completion buffer, links to the current buffer are now | |
| 3121 | highlighted. | |
| 3122 | ||
| 3123 | **** New templates =%h= and =%(sexp)= for abbreviated links | |
| 3124 | ||
| 3125 | On top of =%s= template, which is replaced by the link tag in | |
| 3126 | abbreviated links, you can now use =%h= (which does the same than =%s= | |
| 3127 | but does not hexify the tag) and =%(sexp)= (which can run a function | |
| 3128 | that takes the tag as its own argument.) | |
| 3129 | ||
| 3130 | **** New link type =help= | |
| 3131 | ||
| 3132 | You can now create links from =help= buffers. | |
| 3133 | ||
| 3134 | For example, if you request help for the command [[doc::org-agenda][org-agenda]] with | |
| 3135 | =C-h f org-agenda RET=, creating a link from this buffer will let | |
| 3136 | you go back to the same buffer. | |
| 3137 | ||
| 3138 | **** New command [[doc::org-insert-all-links][org-insert-all-links]] | |
| 3139 | ||
| 3140 | This will insert all links as list items. With a universal | |
| 3141 | prefix argument, links will not be deleted from the variable | |
| 3142 | =org-stored-links=. | |
| 3143 | ||
| 3144 | This new command is bound to =C-c C-M-l=. | |
| 3145 | ||
| 3146 | **** New option [[doc::org-url-hexify-p][org-url-hexify-p]] | |
| 3147 | ||
| 3148 | When set to =nil=, the =URL= part of a link will not be hexified. | |
| 3149 | ||
| 3150 | **** Org can now open multiple shell links | |
| 3151 | ||
| 3152 | **** New option [[doc::org-doi-server-url][org-doi-server-url]] to specify an alternate DOI server | |
| 3153 | ||
| 3154 | **** RET now follows time stamps links | |
| 3155 | ||
| 3156 | *** Org Editing | |
| 3157 | ||
| 3158 | **** [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] and =org-archive-*= can now loop in the active region | |
| 3159 | ||
| 3160 | When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, using | |
| 3161 | [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] or =org-archive-*= commands in the active region will | |
| 3162 | loop over headlines. This is handy if you want to set the TODO | |
| 3163 | keyword for several items, or archive them quickly. | |
| 3164 | ||
| 3165 | **** You can now set tags for headlines in a region | |
| 3166 | ||
| 3167 | If [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, then | |
| 3168 | selecting the region and hitting =C-c C-q= will set the tags for | |
| 3169 | all headlines in the region. | |
| 3170 | ||
| 3171 | **** New command [[doc::org-insert-drawer][org-insert-drawer]] to insert a drawer interactively | |
| 3172 | ||
| 3173 | **** Comments start with "^[ \t]*# " anywhere on a line | |
| 3174 | ||
| 3175 | Note that the space after the hashtag is mandatory. Comments | |
| 3176 | with "^#+" are not supported anymore. | |
| 3177 | ||
| 3178 | **** New speed key =#= to toggle the COMMENT cookie on a headline | |
| 3179 | ||
| 3180 | **** =indent-region-function= is now set to [[doc::org-indent-region][org-indent-region]] | |
| 3181 | ||
| 3182 | =C-M-\= should now produce useful results. | |
| 3183 | ||
| 3184 | You can unindent the buffer with [[doc::org-unindent-buffer][org-unindent-buffer]]. | |
| 3185 | ||
| 3186 | **** New option [[doc::org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree][org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree]] | |
| 3187 | ||
| 3188 | When =non-nil=, =S-M-<left>= will promote level-1 subtrees | |
| 3189 | containing other subtrees. The level-1 headline will be | |
| 3190 | commented out. You can revert to the previous state with =M-x | |
| 3191 | undo RET=. | |
| 3192 | ||
| 3193 | *** Org Clock | |
| 3194 | ||
| 3195 | **** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-z= for [[doc::org-clock-resolve][org-clock-resolve]] | |
| 3196 | ||
| 3197 | **** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-q= for [[doc::org-clock-cancel][org-clock-cancel]] | |
| 3198 | ||
| 3199 | **** New command [[doc::org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] to clock in the last clocked item | |
| 3200 | ||
| 3201 | This command is bound to =C-c C-x C-x= and will clock in the last | |
| 3202 | clocked entry, if any. | |
| 3203 | ||
| 3204 | **** =C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-out][org-clock-out]] =RET= now prompts for a state to switch to | |
| 3205 | ||
| 3206 | **** =S-M-<up/down>= on a clock timestamps adjusts the previous/next clock | |
| 3207 | ||
| 3208 | **** New option [[doc::org-clock-continuously][org-clock-continuously]] | |
| 3209 | ||
| 3210 | When set to =nil=, clocking in a task will first try to find the | |
| 3211 | last clocked out task and restart from when that task was clocked | |
| 3212 | out. | |
| 3213 | ||
| 3214 | You can temporarily activate continuous clocking with =C-u C-u | |
| 3215 | C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-in][org-clock-in]] =RET= (three universal prefix arguments) | |
| 3216 | and =C-u C-u M-x= [[org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] =RET= (two universal prefix | |
| 3217 | arguments). | |
| 3218 | ||
| 3219 | ||
| 3220 | **** New option [[doc::org-clock-frame-title-format][org-clock-frame-title-format]] | |
| 3221 | ||
| 3222 | This option sets the value of =frame-title-format= when clocking | |
| 3223 | in. | |
| 3224 | ||
| 3225 | **** New options for controlling the clockreport display | |
| 3226 | ||
| 3227 | [[doc::org-clock-file-time-cell-format][org-clock-file-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the file time | |
| 3228 | cells in clockreport. | |
| 3229 | ||
| 3230 | [[doc::org-clock-total-time-cell-format][org-clock-total-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the total | |
| 3231 | time cells in clockreport. | |
| 3232 | ||
| 3233 | ||
| 3234 | **** New options for controlling the clock/timer display | |
| 3235 | ||
| 3236 | [[doc::org-clock-clocked-in-display][org-clock-clocked-in-display]]: control whether the current clock | |
| 3237 | is displayed in the mode line and/or frame title. | |
| 3238 | ||
| 3239 | [[doc::org-timer-display][org-timer-display]]: control whether the current timer is displayed | |
| 3240 | in the mode line and/or frame title. | |
| 3241 | ||
| 3242 | This allows the clock and timer to be displayed in the frame | |
| 3243 | title instead of, or as well as, the mode line. This is useful | |
| 3244 | for people with limited space in the mode line but with ample | |
| 3245 | space in the frame title. | |
| 3246 | ||
| 3247 | *** Org Appearance | |
| 3248 | ||
| 3249 | **** New option [[doc::org-custom-properties][org-custom-properties]] | |
| 3250 | ||
| 3251 | The visibility of properties listed in this options can be turn | |
| 3252 | on/off with [[doc::org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility][org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility]]. This might | |
| 3253 | be useful for properties used by third-part tools or that you | |
| 3254 | don't want to see temporarily. | |
| 3255 | ||
| 3256 | **** New command [[doc::org-redisplay-inline-images][org-redisplay-inline-images]] | |
| 3257 | ||
| 3258 | This will redisplay all images. It is bound to =C-c C-x C-M-v=. | |
| 3259 | ||
| 3260 | **** New entities in =org-entities.el= | |
| 3261 | ||
| 3262 | There are these new entities: | |
| 3263 | ||
| 3264 | : ("tilde" "\\~{}" nil "˜" "~" "~" "~") | |
| 3265 | : ("slash" "/" nil "/" "/" "/" "/") | |
| 3266 | : ("plus" "+" nil "+" "+" "+" "+") | |
| 3267 | : ("under" "\\_" nil "_" "_" "_" "_") | |
| 3268 | : ("equal" "=" nil "=" "=" "=" "=") | |
| 3269 | : ("asciicirc" "\\textasciicircum{}" nil "^" "^" "^" "^") | |
| 3270 | ||
| 3271 | **** New face =org-list-dt= for definition terms | |
| 3272 | **** New face =org-date-selected= for the selected calendar day | |
| 3273 | **** New face value for =org-document-title= | |
| 3274 | ||
| 3275 | The face is back to a normal height. | |
| 3276 | ||
| 3277 | *** Org Columns | |
| 3278 | ||
| 3279 | **** New speed command =:= to activate the column view | |
| 3280 | **** New special property =CLOCKSUM_T= to display today's clocked time | |
| 3281 | ||
| 3282 | You can use =CLOCKSUM_T= the same way you use =CLOCKSUM=. It | |
| 3283 | will display the time spent on tasks for today only. | |
| 3284 | ||
| 3285 | **** Use the =:COLUMNS:= property in columnview dynamic blocks | |
| 3286 | ||
| 3287 | If the =:COLUMNS:= is set in a subtree, the columnview dynamic | |
| 3288 | block will use its value as the column format. | |
| 3289 | ||
| 3290 | **** Consider inline tasks when computing a sum | |
| 3291 | ||
| 3292 | *** Org Dates and Time Stamps | |
| 3293 | ||
| 3294 | **** Enhanced [[doc::org-sparse-tree][org-sparse-tree]] | |
| 3295 | ||
| 3296 | =C-c /= can now check for time ranges. | |
| 3297 | ||
| 3298 | When checking for dates with =C-c /= it is useful to change the | |
| 3299 | type of dates that you are interested in. You can now do this | |
| 3300 | interactively with =c= after =C-c /= and/or by setting | |
| 3301 | [[doc::org-sparse-tree-default-date-type][org-sparse-tree-default-date-type]] to the default value you want. | |
| 3302 | ||
| 3303 | **** Support for hourly repeat cookies | |
| 3304 | ||
| 3305 | You can now use | |
| 3306 | ||
| 3307 | : SCHEDULED: <2012-08-20 lun. 08:00 +1h> | |
| 3308 | ||
| 3309 | if you want to add an hourly repeater to an entry. | |
| 3310 | ||
| 3311 | **** =C-u C-u C-c .= inserts a time-stamp with no prompt | |
| 3312 | ||
| 3313 | **** When (setq [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] 'time), accept days in the prompt | |
| 3314 | ||
| 3315 | "8am Wed" and "Wed 8am" are now acceptable values when entering a | |
| 3316 | date from the prompt. If [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] is set to | |
| 3317 | =time=, this will produce the expected prompt indication. | |
| 3318 | ||
| 3319 | **** New option [[doc::org-datetree-add-timestamp][org-datetree-add-timestamp]] | |
| 3320 | ||
| 3321 | When set to =non-nil=, datetree entries will also have a | |
| 3322 | timestamp. This is useful if you want to see these entries in a | |
| 3323 | sparse tree with =C-c /=. | |
| 3324 | ||
| 3325 | *** Org Capture | |
| 3326 | ||
| 3327 | **** New command [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]] | |
| 3328 | ||
| 3329 | M-x [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]] RET will prompt for a string and a capture | |
| 3330 | template. The string will be used as an annotation for the | |
| 3331 | template. This is useful when capturing in batch mode as it lets | |
| 3332 | you define the content of the template without being in Emacs. | |
| 3333 | ||
| 3334 | **** New option [[doc::org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] | |
| 3335 | ||
| 3336 | Setting this option allows you to define specific context where | |
| 3337 | capture templates should be available from. For example, when | |
| 3338 | set to this value | |
| 3339 | ||
| 3340 | #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp | |
| 3341 | (setq org-capture-templates-contexts | |
| 3342 | '(("c" (in-mode . "message-mode")))) | |
| 3343 | #+END_SRC | |
| 3344 | ||
| 3345 | then the =c= capture template will only be available from | |
| 3346 | =message-mode= buffers. See the docstring and the manual for | |
| 3347 | more details on how to use this. | |
| 3348 | ||
| 3349 | **** New =%l= template to insert the literal link | |
| 3350 | **** New option [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]] | |
| 3351 | ||
| 3352 | Org used to automatically add a bookmark with capture a note. | |
| 3353 | You can now turn this on by setting [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]] to | |
| 3354 | =nil=. | |
| 3355 | ||
| 3356 | **** Expand =%<num>= escape sequences into text entered for <num>'th =%^{PROMPT}= escape | |
| 3357 | ||
| 3358 | See the manual for more explanations. | |
| 3359 | ||
| 3360 | **** More control over empty lines | |
| 3361 | ||
| 3362 | You can use =:empty-lines-before= and =:empty-lines-after= to | |
| 3363 | control the insertion of empty lines. Check the manual for more | |
| 3364 | explanations. | |
| 3365 | ||
| 3366 | **** New hook [[doc::org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook][org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook]] | |
| 3367 | ||
| 3368 | This new hook runs before the finalization process starts. | |
| 3369 | ||
| 3370 | *** Org Export | |
| 3371 | ||
| 3372 | **** New functions =orgtbl-to-table.el= and =orgtbl-to-unicode= | |
| 3373 | ||
| 3374 | =orgtbl-to-table.el= convert the table to a =table.el= table, and | |
| 3375 | =orgtbl-to-unicode= will use =ascii-art-to-unicode.el= (when | |
| 3376 | available) to print beautiful tables. | |
| 3377 | ||
| 3378 | **** [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]] now a bit clever about the target format | |
| 3379 | ||
| 3380 | When you specify a file name like =table.csv=, [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]] | |
| 3381 | will now suggest =orgtbl-to-csv= the default method for exporting | |
| 3382 | the table. | |
| 3383 | ||
| 3384 | **** New option [[doc::org-export-date-timestamp-format][org-export-date-timestamp-format]] | |
| 3385 | ||
| 3386 | The option allows to set a time string format for Org timestamps | |
| 3387 | in the #+DATE option. | |
| 3388 | ||
| 3389 | **** LaTeX: New options for exporting table rules :tstart, :hline and :tend | |
| 3390 | ||
| 3391 | See [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-hline][org-export-latex-tables-hline]] and [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-tend][org-export-latex-tables-tend]]. | |
| 3392 | ||
| 3393 | **** LaTeX: You can now set =:hfmt= from =#+ATTR_LaTeX= | |
| 3394 | **** Beamer: Add support and keybinding for the =exampleblock= environment | |
| 3395 | ||
| 3396 | Add support for these languages in [[doc::org-export-language-setup][org-export-language-setup]]. | |
| 3397 | More languages are always welcome. | |
| 3398 | ||
| 3399 | **** Beamer: New option [[doc::org-beamer-inherited-properties][org-beamer-inherited-properties]] | |
| 3400 | ||
| 3401 | This option allows Beamer export to inherit some properties. | |
| 3402 | Thanks to Carsten for implementing this. | |
| 3403 | ||
| 3404 | **** ODT: Add support for ODT export in org-bbdb.el | |
| 3405 | **** ODT: Add support for indented tables (see [[https://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=e9fd33][this commit]] for details) | |
| 3406 | **** ODT: Improve the conversion from ODT to other formats | |
| 3407 | **** ASCII: Swap the level-1/level-2 characters to underline the headlines | |
| 3408 | **** Support for Chinese, simplified Chinese, Russian, Ukrainian and Japanese | |
| 3409 | **** HTML: New option [[doc::org-export-html-date-format-string][org-export-html-date-format-string]] | |
| 3410 | ||
| 3411 | Format string to format the date and time in HTML export. Thanks | |
| 3412 | to Sébastien Vauban for this patch. | |
| 3413 | ||
| 3414 | *** Org Babel | |
| 3415 | ||
| 3416 | **** New =:results drawer= parameter | |
| 3417 | ||
| 3418 | =:results drawer= replaces =:results wrap=, which is deprecated but still | |
| 3419 | supported. | |
| 3420 | ||
| 3421 | **** =:results org= now put results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block | |
| 3422 | ||
| 3423 | =:results org= used to put results in a =#+BEGIN_ORG= block but it now puts | |
| 3424 | results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block, with comma-escaped lines. | |
| 3425 | ||
| 3426 | =#+BEGIN_ORG= blocks are obsolete. | |
| 3427 | ||
| 3428 | **** Exporting =#+BEGIN_SRC org= blocks exports the code | |
| 3429 | ||
| 3430 | It used to exports the results of the code. | |
| 3431 | ||
| 3432 | *** Miscellaneous | |
| 3433 | ||
| 3434 | **** New menu entry for [[doc::org-refile][org-refile]] | |
| 3435 | **** Allow capturing to encrypted entries | |
| 3436 | ||
| 3437 | If you capture to an encrypted entry, it will be decrypted before | |
| 3438 | inserting the template then re-encrypted after finalizing the capture. | |
| 3439 | ||
| 3440 | **** Inactive timestamps are now handled in tables | |
| 3441 | ||
| 3442 | Calc can do computation on active time-stamps like <2012-09-29 sat.>. | |
| 3443 | Inactive time-stamps in a table's cell are now internally deactivated so | |
| 3444 | that Calc formulas can operate on them. | |
| 3445 | ||
| 3446 | **** [[doc::org-table-number-regexp][org-table-number-regexp]] can now accept comma as decimal mark | |
| 3447 | **** Org allows a new property =APPT_WARNTIME= | |
| 3448 | ||
| 3449 | You can set it with the =W= speedy key or set it manually. When | |
| 3450 | set, exporting to iCalendar and [[doc::org-agenda-to-appt][org-agenda-to-appt]] will use the | |
| 3451 | value of this property as the number of minutes for the warning | |
| 3452 | alarm. | |
| 3453 | ||
| 3454 | **** New command [[doc::org-inc-effort][org-inc-effort]] | |
| 3455 | ||
| 3456 | This will increment the effort value. | |
| 3457 | ||
| 3458 | It is bound to =C-c C-x E= and to =E= as a speedy command. | |
| 3459 | ||
| 3460 | **** Attach: Add support for creating symbolic links | |
| 3461 | ||
| 3462 | =org-attach-method= now supports a new method =lns=, allowing to | |
| 3463 | attach symbolic links. | |
| 3464 | ||
| 3465 | **** Archive: you can now archive to a datetree | |
| 3466 | ||
| 3467 | **** New option [[doc::org-inlinetask-show-first-star][org-inlinetask-show-first-star]] | |
| 3468 | ||
| 3469 | =Non-nil= means display the first star of an inline task as | |
| 3470 | additional marker. When =nil=, the first star is not shown. | |
| 3471 | ||
| 3472 | **** New option [[doc::org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory][org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory]] | |
| 3473 | ||
| 3474 | This lets you define the path for the =ltxpng/= directory. | |
| 3475 | ||
| 3476 | **** You can now use imagemagick instead of dvipng to preview LaTeX fragments | |
| 3477 | **** You can now turn off [[doc::orgstruct++-mode][orgstruct++-mode]] safely | |
| 3478 | **** =C-u C-c C-c= on list items to add check boxes | |
| 3479 | ||
| 3480 | =C-u C-c C-c= will add an empty check box on a list item. | |
| 3481 | ||
| 3482 | When hit from the top of the list, it will add check boxes for | |
| 3483 | all top level list items. | |
| 3484 | ||
| 3485 | **** =org-list-ending-method= and =org-list-end-regexp= are now obsolete | |
| 3486 | ||
| 3487 | Fall back on using =org-list-end-re= only, which see. | |
| 3488 | ||
| 3489 | **** org-feed.el now expands =%(sexp)= templates | |
| 3490 | **** New option [[doc::org-protocol-data-separator][org-protocol-data-separator]] | |
| 3491 | ||
| 3492 | **** New option [[doc::org-ditaa-jar-option][org-ditaa-jar-option]] to specify the ditaa jar file | |
| 3493 | ||
| 3494 | **** New possible value for [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] | |
| 3495 | ||
| 3496 | When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is set to | |
| 3497 | =start-level=, the command will loop over the active region but | |
| 3498 | will only act upon entries that are of the same level than the | |
| 3499 | first headline in the region. | |
| 3500 | ||
| 3501 | **** New option [[doc::org-habit-show-all-today][org-habit-show-all-today]] | |
| 3502 | ||
| 3503 | When set to =t=, show all (even unscheduled) habits on today's | |
| 3504 | agenda. | |
| 3505 | ||
| 3506 | ** Important bug fixes | |
| 3507 | ||
| 3508 | *** M-TAB on options keywords perform completion correctly again | |
| 3509 | ||
| 3510 | If you hit =M-TAB= on keywords like =#+TITLE=, Org will try to | |
| 3511 | perform completion with meaningful values. | |
| 3512 | ||
| 3513 | *** Add licenses to javascript embedded and external code snippets | |
| 3514 | ||
| 3515 | Embedded javascript code produced when exporting an Org file to | |
| 3516 | HTML is now licensed under GPLv3 (or later), and the copyright is | |
| 3517 | owned by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. | |
| 3518 | ||
| 3519 | The javascript code for embedding MathJax in the browser mentions | |
| 3520 | the MathJax copyright and the Apache 2.0 license. | |
| 3521 | ||
| 3522 | The javascript code for embedding =org-injo.js= in the browser | |
| 3523 | mentions the copyright of Sebastian Rose and the GPLv3 (or later) | |
| 3524 | license. | |
| 3525 | ||
| 3526 | =org-export-html-scripts= is now a variable, so that you can adapt | |
| 3527 | the code and the license to your needs. | |
| 3528 | ||
| 3529 | See https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html for | |
| 3530 | explanations on why these changes were necessary. | |
| 3531 | ||
| 3532 | * Version 7.8.11 | |
| 3533 | ||
| 3534 | ** Incompatible changes | |
| 3535 | ||
| 3536 | *** Emacs 21 support has been dropped | |
| 3537 | ||
| 3538 | Do not use Org mode 7.xx with Emacs 21, use [[https://orgmode.org/org-6.36c.zip][version 6.36c]] instead. | |
| 3539 | ||
| 3540 | *** XEmacs support requires the XEmacs development version | |
| 3541 | ||
| 3542 | To use Org mode 7.xx with XEmacs, you need to run the developer | |
| 3543 | version of XEmacs. We were about to drop XEmacs support entirely, | |
| 3544 | but Michael Sperber stepped in and made changes to XEmacs that | |
| 3545 | made it easier to keep the support. Thanks to Michael for this | |
| 3546 | last-minute save. | |
| 3547 | ||
| 3548 | *** New keys for TODO sparse trees | |
| 3549 | ||
| 3550 | The key =C-c C-v= is now reserved for Org Babel action. TODO | |
| 3551 | sparse trees can still be made with =C-c / t= (all not-done | |
| 3552 | states) and =C-c / T= (specific states). | |
| 3553 | ||
| 3554 | *** The Agenda =org-agenda-ndays= is now obsolete | |
| 3555 | ||
| 3556 | The variable =org-agenda-ndays= is obsolete - please use | |
| 3557 | =org-agenda-span= instead. | |
| 3558 | ||
| 3559 | Thanks to Julien Danjou for this. | |
| 3560 | ||
| 3561 | *** Changes to the intended use of =org-export-latex-classes= | |
| 3562 | ||
| 3563 | So far this variable has been used to specify the complete header | |
| 3564 | of the LaTeX document, including all the =\usepackage= calls | |
| 3565 | necessary for the document. This setup makes it difficult to | |
| 3566 | maintain the list of packages that Org itself would like to call, | |
| 3567 | for example for the special symbol support it needs. | |
| 3568 | ||
| 3569 | First of all, you can *opt out of this change* in the following | |
| 3570 | way: You can say: /I want to have full control over headers, and I | |
| 3571 | will take responsibility to include the packages Org needs/. If | |
| 3572 | that is what you want, add this to your configuration and skip the | |
| 3573 | rest of this section (except maybe for the description of the | |
| 3574 | =[EXTRA]= place holder): | |
| 3575 | ||
| 3576 | #+begin_src emacs-lisp | |
| 3577 | (setq org-export-latex-default-packages-alist nil | |
| 3578 | org-export-latex-packages-alist nil) | |
| 3579 | #+end_src | |
| 3580 | ||
| 3581 | /Continue to read here if you want to go along with the modified | |
| 3582 | setup./ | |
| 3583 | ||
| 3584 | There are now two variables that should be used to list the LaTeX | |
| 3585 | packages that need to be included in all classes. The header | |
| 3586 | definition in =org-export-latex-classes= should then not contain | |
| 3587 | the corresponding =\usepackage= calls (see below). | |
| 3588 | ||
| 3589 | The two new variables are: | |
| 3590 | ||
| 3591 | 1. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist= :: This is the | |
| 3592 | variable where Org-mode itself puts the packages it needs. | |
| 3593 | Normally you should not change this variable. The only | |
| 3594 | reason to change it anyway is when one of these packages | |
| 3595 | causes a conflict with another package you want to use. Then | |
| 3596 | you can remove that packages and hope that you are not using | |
| 3597 | Org-mode functionality that needs it. | |
| 3598 | ||
| 3599 | 2. =org-export-latex-packages-alist= :: This is the variable where | |
| 3600 | you can put the packages that you'd like to use across all | |
| 3601 | classes. | |
| 3602 | ||
| 3603 | The sequence how these customizations will show up in the LaTeX | |
| 3604 | document are: | |
| 3605 | ||
| 3606 | 1. Header from =org-export-latex-classes= | |
| 3607 | 2. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist= | |
| 3608 | 3. =org-export-latex-packages-alist= | |
| 3609 | 4. Buffer-specific things set with =#+LaTeX_HEADER:= | |
| 3610 | ||
| 3611 | If you want more control about which segment is placed where, or | |
| 3612 | if you want, for a specific class, have full control over the | |
| 3613 | header and exclude some of the automatic building blocks, you can | |
| 3614 | put the following macro-like place holders into the header: | |
| 3615 | ||
| 3616 | #+begin_example | |
| 3617 | [DEFAULT-PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for default packages | |
| 3618 | [NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES] do not include any of the default packages | |
| 3619 | [PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for packages | |
| 3620 | [NO-PACKAGES] do not include the packages | |
| 3621 | [EXTRA] the stuff from #+LaTeX_HEADER | |
| 3622 | [NO-EXTRA] do not include #+LaTeX_HEADER stuff | |
| 3623 | #+end_example | |
| 3624 | ||
| 3625 | If you have currently customized =org-export-latex-classes=, you | |
| 3626 | should revise that customization and remove any package calls that | |
| 3627 | are covered by =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. This | |
| 3628 | applies to the following packages: | |
| 3629 | ||
| 3630 | - inputenc | |
| 3631 | - fontenc | |
| 3632 | - fixltx2e | |
| 3633 | - graphicx | |
| 3634 | - longtable | |
| 3635 | - float | |
| 3636 | - wrapfig | |
| 3637 | - soul | |
| 3638 | - t1enc | |
| 3639 | - textcomp | |
| 3640 | - marvosym | |
| 3641 | - wasysym | |
| 3642 | - latexsym | |
| 3643 | - amssymb | |
| 3644 | - hyperref | |
| 3645 | ||
| 3646 | If one of these packages creates a conflict with another package | |
| 3647 | you are using, you can remove it from | |
| 3648 | =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. But then you risk that | |
| 3649 | some of the advertised export features of Org will not work | |
| 3650 | properly. | |
| 3651 | ||
| 3652 | You can also consider moving packages that you use in all classes | |
| 3653 | to =org-export-latex-packages-alist=. If necessary, put the place | |
| 3654 | holders so that the packages get loaded in the right sequence. As | |
| 3655 | said above, for backward compatibility, if you omit the place | |
| 3656 | holders, all the variables will dump their content at the end of | |
| 3657 | the header. | |
| 3658 | ||
| 3659 | *** The constant =org-html-entities= is obsolete | |
| 3660 | ||
| 3661 | Its content is now part of the new constant =org-entities=, which | |
| 3662 | is defined in the file org-entities.el. =org-html-entities= was | |
| 3663 | an internal variable, but it is possible that some users did write | |
| 3664 | code using it. | |
| 3665 | ||
| 3666 | *** =org-bbdb-anniversary-format-alist= has changed | |
| 3667 | ||
| 3668 | Please check the docstring and update your settings accordingly. | |
| 3669 | ||
| 3670 | *** Deleted =org-mode-p= | |
| 3671 | ||
| 3672 | This function has been deleted: please update your code. | |
| 3673 | ||
| 3674 | ** Important new features | |
| 3675 | ||
| 3676 | *** New Org to ODT exporter | |
| 3677 | ||
| 3678 | Jambunathan's Org to ODT exporter is now part of Org. | |
| 3679 | ||
| 3680 | To use it, it `C-c C-e o' in an Org file. See the documentation | |
| 3681 | for more information on how to customize it. | |
| 3682 | ||
| 3683 | *** org-capture.el is now the default capture system | |
| 3684 | ||
| 3685 | This replaces the earlier system org-remember. The manual only | |
| 3686 | describes org-capture, but for people who prefer to continue to | |
| 3687 | use org-remember, we keep a static copy of the former manual | |
| 3688 | section [[https://orgmode.org/org-remember.pdf][chapter about remember]]. | |
| 3689 | ||
| 3690 | The new system has a technically cleaner implementation and more | |
| 3691 | possibilities for capturing different types of data. See | |
| 3692 | [[http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/26441/focus%3D26441][Carsten's announcement]] for more details. | |
| 3693 | ||
| 3694 | To switch over to the new system: | |
| 3695 | ||
| 3696 | 1. Run | |
| 3697 | ||
| 3698 | : M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET | |
| 3699 | ||
| 3700 | to get a translated version of your remember templates into the | |
| 3701 | new variable =org-capture-templates=. This will "mostly" work, | |
| 3702 | but maybe not for all cases. At least it will give you a good | |
| 3703 | place to modify your templates. After running this command, | |
| 3704 | enter the customize buffer for this variable with | |
| 3705 | ||
| 3706 | : M-x customize-variable RET org-capture-templates RET | |
| 3707 | ||
| 3708 | and convince yourself that everything is OK. Then save the | |
| 3709 | customization. | |
| 3710 | ||
| 3711 | 2. Bind the command =org-capture= to a key, similar to what you did | |
| 3712 | with org-remember: | |
| 3713 | ||
| 3714 | : (define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture) | |
| 3715 | ||
| 3716 | If your fingers prefer =C-c r=, you can also use this key once | |
| 3717 | you have decided to move over completely to the new | |
| 3718 | implementation. During a test time, there is nothing wrong | |
| 3719 | with using both system in parallel. | |
| 3720 | ||
| 3721 | ** New libraries | |
| 3722 | ||
| 3723 | *** New Org libraries | |
| 3724 | **** org-eshell.el (Konrad Hinsen) | |
| 3725 | ||
| 3726 | Implement links to eshell buffers. | |
| 3727 | ||
| 3728 | **** org-special-blocks (Carsten Dominik) | |
| 3729 | ||
| 3730 | This package generalizes the #+begin_foo and #+end_foo tokens. | |
| 3731 | ||
| 3732 | To use, put the following in your init file: | |
| 3733 | ||
| 3734 | #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE | |
| 3735 | (require 'org-special-blocks) | |
| 3736 | #+END_EXAMPLE | |
| 3737 | ||
| 3738 | The tokens #+begin_center, #+begin_verse, etc. existed | |
| 3739 | previously. This package generalizes them (at least for the | |
| 3740 | LaTeX and html exporters). When a #+begin_foo token is | |
| 3741 | encountered by the LaTeX exporter, it is expanded | |
| 3742 | into \begin{foo}. The text inside the environment is not | |
| 3743 | protected, as text inside environments generally is. | |
| 3744 | When #+begin_foo is encountered by the html exporter, a div with | |
| 3745 | class foo is inserted into the HTML file. It is up to the user | |
| 3746 | to add this class to his or her stylesheet if this div is to mean | |
| 3747 | anything. | |
| 3748 | ||
| 3749 | **** org-taskjuggler.el (Christian Egli) | |
| 3750 | ||
| 3751 | Christian Egli's /org-taskjuggler.el/ module is now part of Org. | |
| 3752 | He also wrote a [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler.php][tutorial]] for it. | |
| 3753 | ||
| 3754 | **** org-ctags.el (Paul Sexton) | |
| 3755 | ||
| 3756 | Targets like =<<my target>>= can now be found by Emacs' etag | |
| 3757 | functionality, and Org-mode links can be used to to link to | |
| 3758 | etags, also in non-Org-mode files. For details, see the file | |
| 3759 | /org-ctags.el/. | |
| 3760 | ||
| 3761 | This feature uses a new hook =org-open-link-functions= which will | |
| 3762 | call function to do something special with text links. | |
| 3763 | ||
| 3764 | Thanks to Paul Sexton for this contribution. | |
| 3765 | ||
| 3766 | **** org-docview.el (Jan Böcker) | |
| 3767 | ||
| 3768 | This new module allows links to various file types using docview, where | |
| 3769 | Emacs displays images of document pages. Docview link types can point | |
| 3770 | to a specific page in a document, for example to page 131 of the | |
| 3771 | Org-mode manual: | |
| 3772 | ||
| 3773 | : [[docview:~/.elisp/org/doc/org.pdf::131][Org-Mode Manual]] | |
| 3774 | ||
| 3775 | Thanks to Jan Böcker for this contribution. | |
| 3776 | ||
| 3777 | *** New Babel libraries | |
| 3778 | ||
| 3779 | - ob-picolisp.el (Thorsten Jolitz) | |
| 3780 | - ob-fortran.el (Sergey Litvinov) | |
| 3781 | - ob-shen.el (Eric Schulte) | |
| 3782 | - ob-maxima.el (Eric S Fraga) | |
| 3783 | - ob-java.el (Eric Schulte) | |
| 3784 | - ob-lilypond.el (Martyn Jago) | |
| 3785 | - ob-awk.el (Eric Schulte) | |
| 3786 | ||
| 3787 | ** Other new features and various enhancements | |
| 3788 | ||
| 3789 | *** Hyperlinks | |
| 3790 | ||
| 3791 | **** Org-Bibtex -- major improvements | |
| 3792 | ||
| 3793 | Provides support for managing bibtex bibliographical references | |
| 3794 | data in headline properties. Each headline corresponds to a | |
| 3795 | single reference and the relevant bibliographic meta-data is | |
| 3796 | stored in headline properties, leaving the body of the headline | |
| 3797 | free to hold notes and comments. Org-bibtex is aware of all | |
| 3798 | standard bibtex reference types and fields. | |
| 3799 | ||
| 3800 | The key new functions are | |
| 3801 | ||
| 3802 | - org-bibtex-check :: queries the user to flesh out all required | |
| 3803 | (and with prefix argument optional) bibtex fields available | |
| 3804 | for the specific reference =type= of the current headline. | |
| 3805 | ||
| 3806 | - org-bibtex-create :: Create a new entry at the given level, | |
| 3807 | using org-bibtex-check to flesh out the relevant fields. | |
| 3808 | ||
| 3809 | - org-bibtex-yank :: Yank a bibtex entry on the kill ring as a | |
| 3810 | formatted Org-mode headline into the current buffer | |
| 3811 | ||
| 3812 | - org-bibtex-export-to-kill-ring :: Export the current headline | |
| 3813 | to the kill ring as a formatted bibtex entry. | |
| 3814 | ||
| 3815 | **** org-gnus.el now allows link creation from messages | |
| 3816 | ||
| 3817 | You can now create links from messages. This is particularly | |
| 3818 | useful when the user wants to stored messages that he sends, for | |
| 3819 | later check. Thanks to Ulf Stegemann for the patch. | |
| 3820 | ||
| 3821 | **** Modified link escaping | |
| 3822 | ||
| 3823 | David Maus worked on `org-link-escape'. See [[http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/37888][his message]]: | |
| 3824 | ||
| 3825 | : Percent escaping is used in Org mode to escape certain characters | |
| 3826 | : in links that would either break the parser (e.g. square brackets | |
| 3827 | : in link target oder description) or are not allowed to appear in | |
| 3828 | : a particular link type (e.g. non-ascii characters in a http: | |
| 3829 | : link). | |
| 3830 | : | |
| 3831 | : With this change in place Org will apply percent escaping and | |
| 3832 | : unescaping more consistently especially for non-ascii characters. | |
| 3833 | : Additionally some of the outstanding bugs or glitches concerning | |
| 3834 | : percent escaped links are solved. | |
| 3835 | ||
| 3836 | Thanks a lot to David for this work. | |
| 3837 | ||
| 3838 | **** Make =org-store-link= point to directory in a dired buffer | |
| 3839 | ||
| 3840 | When, in a dired buffer, the cursor is not in a line listing a | |
| 3841 | file, `org-store-link' will store a link to the directory. | |
| 3842 | ||
| 3843 | Patch by Stephen Eglen. | |
| 3844 | ||
| 3845 | **** Allow regexps in =org-file-apps= to capture link parameters | |
| 3846 | ||
| 3847 | The way extension regexps in =org-file-apps= are handled has | |
| 3848 | changed. Instead of matching against the file name, the regexps | |
| 3849 | are now matched against the whole link, and you can use grouping | |
| 3850 | to extract link parameters which you can then use in a command | |
| 3851 | string to be executed. | |
| 3852 | ||
| 3853 | For example, to allow linking to PDF files using the syntax | |
| 3854 | =file:/doc.pdf::<page number>=, you can add the following entry | |
| 3855 | to org-file-apps: | |
| 3856 | ||
| 3857 | #+begin_example | |
| 3858 | Extension: \.pdf::\([0-9]+\)\' | |
| 3859 | Command: evince "%s" -p %1 | |
| 3860 | #+end_example | |
| 3861 | ||
| 3862 | Thanks to Jan Böcker for a patch to this effect. | |
| 3863 | ||
| 3864 | *** Dates and time | |
| 3865 | ||
| 3866 | **** Allow relative time when scheduling/adding a deadline | |
| 3867 | ||
| 3868 | You can now use relative duration strings like "-2d" or "++3w" | |
| 3869 | when calling =org-schedule= or =org-deadline=: it will schedule | |
| 3870 | (or set the deadline for) the item respectively two days before | |
| 3871 | today and three weeks after the current timestamp, if any. | |
| 3872 | ||
| 3873 | You can use this programmatically: =(org-schedule nil "+2d")= | |
| 3874 | will work on the current entry. | |
| 3875 | ||
| 3876 | You can also use this while (bulk-)rescheduling and | |
| 3877 | (bulk-)resetting the deadline of (several) items from the agenda. | |
| 3878 | ||
| 3879 | Thanks to Memnon Anon for a heads up about this! | |
| 3880 | ||
| 3881 | **** American-style dates are now understood by =org-read-date= | |
| 3882 | ||
| 3883 | So when you are prompted for a date, you can now answer like this | |
| 3884 | ||
| 3885 | #+begin_example | |
| 3886 | 2/5/3 --> 2003-02-05 | |
| 3887 | 2/5 --> <CURRENT-YEAR>-02-05 | |
| 3888 | #+end_example | |
| 3889 | ||
| 3890 | *** Agenda | |
| 3891 | ||
| 3892 | **** =org-agenda-custom-commands= has a default value | |
| 3893 | ||
| 3894 | This option used to be `nil' by default. This now has a default | |
| 3895 | value, displaying an agenda and all TODOs. See the docstring for | |
| 3896 | details. Thanks to Carsten for this. | |
| 3897 | ||
| 3898 | **** Improved filtering through =org-agenda-to-appt= | |
| 3899 | ||
| 3900 | The new function allows the user to refine the scope of entries | |
| 3901 | to pass to =org-agenda-get-day-entries= and allows to filter out | |
| 3902 | entries using a function. | |
| 3903 | ||
| 3904 | Thanks to Peter Münster for raising a related issue and to | |
| 3905 | Tassilo Horn for this idea. Also thanks to Peter Münster for | |
| 3906 | [[git:68ffb7a7][fixing a small bug]] in the final implementation. | |
| 3907 | ||
| 3908 | **** Allow ap/pm times in agenda time grid | |
| 3909 | ||
| 3910 | Times in the agenda can now be displayed in am/pm format. See | |
| 3911 | the new variable =org-agenda-timegrid-use-ampm=. Thanks to | |
| 3912 | C. A. Webber for a patch to this effect. | |
| 3913 | ||
| 3914 | **** Agenda: Added a bulk "scattering" command | |
| 3915 | ||
| 3916 | =B S= in the agenda buffer will cause tasks to be rescheduled a | |
| 3917 | random number of days into the future, with 7 as the default. | |
| 3918 | This is useful if you've got a ton of tasks scheduled for today, | |
| 3919 | you realize you'll never deal with them all, and you just want | |
| 3920 | them to be distributed across the next N days. When called with | |
| 3921 | a prefix arg, rescheduling will avoid weekend days. | |
| 3922 | ||
| 3923 | Thanks to John Wiegley for this. | |
| 3924 | ||
| 3925 | *** Exporting | |
| 3926 | ||
| 3927 | **** Simplification of org-export-html-preamble/postamble | |
| 3928 | ||
| 3929 | When set to `t', export the preamble/postamble as usual, honoring | |
| 3930 | the =org-export-email/author/creator-info= variables. | |
| 3931 | ||
| 3932 | When set to a formatting string, insert this string. See the | |
| 3933 | docstring of these variable for details about available | |
| 3934 | %-sequences. | |
| 3935 | ||
| 3936 | You can set =:html-preamble= in publishing project in the same | |
| 3937 | way: `t' means to honor =:email/creator/author-info=, and a | |
| 3938 | formatting string will insert a string. | |
| 3939 | ||
| 3940 | **** New exporters to Latin-1 and UTF-8 | |
| 3941 | ||
| 3942 | While Ulf Stegemann was going through the entities list to | |
| 3943 | improve the LaTeX export, he had the great idea to provide | |
| 3944 | representations for many of the entities in Latin-1, and for all | |
| 3945 | of them in UTF-8. This means that we can now export files rich | |
| 3946 | in special symbols to Latin-1 and to UTF-8 files. These new | |
| 3947 | exporters can be reached with the commands =C-c C-e n= and =C-c | |
| 3948 | C-e u=, respectively. | |
| 3949 | ||
| 3950 | When there is no representation for a given symbol in the | |
| 3951 | targeted coding system, you can choose to keep the TeX-macro-like | |
| 3952 | representation, or to get an "explanatory" representation. For | |
| 3953 | example, =\simeq= could be represented as "[approx. equal to]". | |
| 3954 | Please use the variable =org-entities-ascii-explanatory= to state | |
| 3955 | your preference. | |
| 3956 | ||
| 3957 | **** HTML export: Add class to outline containers using property | |
| 3958 | ||
| 3959 | The =HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS= property can now be used to add a | |
| 3960 | class name to the outline container of a node in HTML export. | |
| 3961 | ||
| 3962 | **** Throw an error when creating an image from a LaTeX snippet fails | |
| 3963 | ||
| 3964 | This behavior can be configured with the new option variable | |
| 3965 | =org-format-latex-signal-error=. | |
| 3966 | ||
| 3967 | **** Support for creating BEAMER presentations from Org-mode documents | |
| 3968 | ||
| 3969 | Org-mode documents or subtrees can now be converted directly in | |
| 3970 | to BEAMER presentation. Turning a tree into a simple | |
| 3971 | presentations is straight forward, and there is also quite some | |
| 3972 | support to make richer presentations as well. See the [[https://orgmode.org/manual/Beamer-class-export.html#Beamer-class-export][BEAMER | |
| 3973 | section]] in the manual for more details. | |
| 3974 | ||
| 3975 | Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the discussion about | |
| 3976 | BEAMER support and how it should work. This was a great example | |
| 3977 | for how this community can achieve a much better result than any | |
| 3978 | individual could. | |
| 3979 | ||
| 3980 | *** Refiling | |
| 3981 | ||
| 3982 | **** Refile targets can now be cached | |
| 3983 | ||
| 3984 | You can turn on caching of refile targets by setting the variable | |
| 3985 | =org-refile-use-cache=. This should speed up refiling if you | |
| 3986 | have many eligible targets in many files. If you need to update | |
| 3987 | the cache because Org misses a newly created entry or still | |
| 3988 | offers a deleted one, press =C-0 C-c C-w=. | |
| 3989 | ||
| 3990 | **** New logging support for refiling | |
| 3991 | ||
| 3992 | Whenever you refile an item, a time stamp and even a note can be | |
| 3993 | added to this entry. For details, see the new option | |
| 3994 | =org-log-refile=. | |
| 3995 | ||
| 3996 | Thanks to Charles Cave for this idea. | |
| 3997 | ||
| 3998 | *** Completion | |
| 3999 | ||
| 4000 | **** In-buffer completion is now done using John Wiegley's pcomplete.el | |
| 4001 | ||
| 4002 | Thanks to John Wiegley for much of this code. | |
| 4003 | ||
| 4004 | *** Tables | |
| 4005 | ||
| 4006 | **** New command =org-table-transpose-table-at-point= | |
| 4007 | ||
| 4008 | See the docstring. This hack from Juan Pechiar is now part of | |
| 4009 | Org's core. Thanks to Juan! | |
| 4010 | ||
| 4011 | **** Display field's coordinates when editing it with =C-c `= | |
| 4012 | ||
| 4013 | When editing a field with =C-c `=, the field's coordinate will | |
| 4014 | the displayed in the buffer. | |
| 4015 | ||
| 4016 | Thanks to Michael Brand for a patch to this effect. | |
| 4017 | ||
| 4018 | **** Spreadsheet computation of durations and time values | |
| 4019 | ||
| 4020 | If you want to compute time values use the =T= flag, either in | |
| 4021 | Calc formulas or Elisp formulas: | |
| 4022 | ||
| 4023 | | Task 1 | Task 2 | Total | | |
| 4024 | |--------+--------+---------| | |
| 4025 | | 35:00 | 35:00 | 1:10:00 | | |
| 4026 | #+TBLFM: @2$3=$1+$2;T | |
| 4027 | ||
| 4028 | Values must be of the form =[HH:]MM:SS=, where hours are | |
| 4029 | optional. | |
| 4030 | ||
| 4031 | Thanks to Martin Halder, Eric Schulte and Carsten for code and | |
| 4032 | feedback on this. | |
| 4033 | ||
| 4034 | **** Implement formulas applying to field ranges | |
| 4035 | ||
| 4036 | Carsten implemented this field-ranges formulas. | |
| 4037 | ||
| 4038 | : A frequently requested feature for tables has been to be able to define | |
| 4039 | : row formulas in a way similar to column formulas. The patch below allows | |
| 4040 | : things like | |
| 4041 | : | |
| 4042 | : @3= | |
| 4043 | : @2$2..@5$7= | |
| 4044 | : @I$2..@II$4= | |
| 4045 | : | |
| 4046 | : as the left hand side for table formulas in order to write a formula that | |
| 4047 | : is valid for an entire column or for a rectangular section in a | |
| 4048 | : table. | |
| 4049 | ||
| 4050 | Thanks a lot to Carsten for this. | |
| 4051 | ||
| 4052 | **** Sending radio tables from org buffers is now allowed | |
| 4053 | ||
| 4054 | Org radio tables can no also be sent inside Org buffers. Also, | |
| 4055 | there is a new hook which get called after a table has been sent. | |
| 4056 | ||
| 4057 | Thanks to Seweryn Kokot. | |
| 4058 | ||
| 4059 | *** Lists | |
| 4060 | ||
| 4061 | **** Improved handling of lists | |
| 4062 | ||
| 4063 | Nicolas Goaziou extended and improved the way Org handles lists. | |
| 4064 | ||
| 4065 | 1. Indentation of text determines again end of items in | |
| 4066 | lists. So, some text less indented than the previous item | |
| 4067 | doesn't close the whole list anymore, only all items more | |
| 4068 | indented than it. | |
| 4069 | ||
| 4070 | 2. Alphabetical bullets are implemented, through the use of the | |
| 4071 | variable `org-alphabetical-lists'. This also adds alphabetical | |
| 4072 | counters like [@c] or [@W]. | |
| 4073 | ||
| 4074 | 3. Lists can now safely contain drawers, inline tasks, or various | |
| 4075 | blocks, themselves containing lists. Two variables are | |
| 4076 | controlling this: `org-list-forbidden-blocks', and | |
| 4077 | `org-list-export-context'. | |
| 4078 | ||
| 4079 | 4. Improve `newline-and-indent' (C-j): used in an item, it will | |
| 4080 | keep text from moving at column 0. This allows to split text | |
| 4081 | and make paragraphs and still not break the list. | |
| 4082 | ||
| 4083 | 5. Improve `org-toggle-item' (C-c -): used on a region with | |
| 4084 | standard text, it will change the region into one item. With a | |
| 4085 | prefix argument, it will fallback to the previous behavior and | |
| 4086 | make every line in region an item. It permits to easily | |
| 4087 | integrate paragraphs inside a list. | |
| 4088 | ||
| 4089 | 6. `fill-paragraph' (M-q) now understands lists. It can freely be | |
| 4090 | used inside items, or on text just after a list, even with no | |
| 4091 | blank line around, without breaking list structure. | |
| 4092 | ||
| 4093 | Thanks a lot to Nicolas for all this! | |
| 4094 | ||
| 4095 | *** Inline display of linked images | |
| 4096 | ||
| 4097 | Images can now be displayed inline. The key C-c C-x C-v does | |
| 4098 | toggle the display of such images. Note that only image links | |
| 4099 | that have no description part will be inlined. | |
| 4100 | ||
| 4101 | *** Implement offsets for ordered lists | |
| 4102 | ||
| 4103 | If you want to start an ordered plain list with a number different | |
| 4104 | from 1, you can now do it like this: | |
| 4105 | ||
| 4106 | : 1. [@start:12] will star a lit a number 12 | |
| 4107 | ||
| 4108 | *** Babel: code block body expansion for table and preview | |
| 4109 | ||
| 4110 | In org-babel, code is "expanded" prior to evaluation. I.e. the | |
| 4111 | code that is actually evaluated comprises the code block contents, | |
| 4112 | augmented with the extra code which assigns the referenced data to | |
| 4113 | variables. It is now possible to preview expanded contents, and | |
| 4114 | also to expand code during during tangling. This expansion takes | |
| 4115 | into account all header arguments, and variables. | |
| 4116 | ||
| 4117 | A new keybinding `C-c M-b p' bound to `org-babel-expand-src-block' | |
| 4118 | can be used from inside of a source code block to preview its | |
| 4119 | expanded contents (which can be very useful for debugging). | |
| 4120 | tangling | |
| 4121 | ||
| 4122 | The expanded body can now be tangled, this includes variable | |
| 4123 | values which may be the results of other source-code blocks, or | |
| 4124 | stored in headline properties or tables. One possible use for this | |
| 4125 | is to allow those using org-babel for their emacs initialization | |
| 4126 | to store values (e.g. usernames, passwords, etc...) in headline | |
| 4127 | properties or in tables. | |
| 4128 | ||
| 4129 | Org-babel now supports three new header arguments, and new default | |
| 4130 | behavior for handling horizontal lines in tables (hlines), column | |
| 4131 | names, and rownames across all languages. | |
| 4132 | ||
| 4133 | *** Editing Convenience and Appearance | |
| 4134 | ||
| 4135 | **** New command =org-copy-visible= (=C-c C-x v=) | |
| 4136 | ||
| 4137 | This command will copy the visible text in the region into the | |
| 4138 | kill ring. Thanks to Florian Beck for this function and to | |
| 4139 | Carsten for adding it to org.el and documenting it! | |
| 4140 | ||
| 4141 | **** Make it possible to protect hidden subtrees from being killed by =C-k= | |
| 4142 | ||
| 4143 | See the new variable =org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree=. This was a | |
| 4144 | request by Scott Otterson. | |

| 4146 | **** Implement pretty display of entities, sub-, and superscripts. | |
| 4147 | ||
| 4148 | The command =C-c C-x \= toggles the display of Org's special | |
| 4149 | entities like =\alpha= as pretty unicode characters. Also, sub | |
| 4150 | and superscripts are displayed in a pretty way (raised/lower | |
| 4151 | display, in a smaller font). If you want to exclude sub- and | |
| 4152 | superscripts, see the variable | |
| 4153 | =org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts=. | |
| 4154 | ||
| 4155 | Thanks to Eric Schulte and Ulf Stegeman for making this possible. | |
| 4156 | ||
| 4157 | **** New faces for title, date, author and email address lines | |
| 4158 | ||
| 4159 | The keywords in these lines are now dimmed out, and the title is | |
| 4160 | displayed in a larger font, and a special font is also used for | |
| 4161 | author, date, and email information. This is implemented by the | |
| 4162 | following new faces: | |
| 4163 | ||
| 4164 | =org-document-title= | |
| 4165 | =org-document-info= | |
| 4166 | =org-document-info-keyword= | |
| 4167 | ||
| 4168 | In addition, the variable =org-hidden-keywords= can be used to | |
| 4169 | make the corresponding keywords disappear. | |
| 4170 | ||
| 4171 | Thanks to Dan Davison for this feature. | |
| 4172 | ||
| 4173 | **** Simpler way to specify faces for tags and todo keywords | |
| 4174 | ||
| 4175 | The variables =org-todo-keyword-faces=, =org-tag-faces=, and | |
| 4176 | =org-priority-faces= now accept simple color names as | |
| 4177 | specifications. The colors will be used as either foreground or | |
| 4178 | background color for the corresponding keyword. See also the | |
| 4179 | variable =org-faces-easy-properties=, which governs which face | |
| 4180 | property is affected by this setting. | |
| 4181 | ||
| 4182 | This is really a great simplification for setting keyword faces. | |
| 4183 | The change is based on an idea and patch by Ryan Thompson. | |
| 4184 | ||
| 4185 | **** <N> in tables now means fixed width, not maximum width | |
| 4186 | ||
| 4187 | Requested by Michael Brand. | |
| 4188 | ||
| 4189 | **** Better level cycling function | |
| 4190 | ||
| 4191 | =TAB= in an empty headline cycles the level of that headline | |
| 4192 | through likely states. Ryan Thompson implemented an improved | |
| 4193 | version of this function, which does not depend upon when exactly | |
| 4194 | this command is used. Thanks to Ryan for this improvement. | |
| 4195 | ||
| 4196 | **** Adaptive filling | |
| 4197 | ||
| 4198 | For paragraph text, =org-adaptive-fill-function= did not handle | |
| 4199 | the base case of regular text which needed to be filled. This is | |
| 4200 | now fixed. Among other things, it allows email-style ">" | |
| 4201 | comments to be filled correctly. | |
| 4202 | ||
| 4203 | Thanks to Dan Hackney for this patch. | |
| 4204 | ||
| 4205 | **** `org-reveal' (=C-c C-r=) also decrypts encrypted entries (org-crypt.el) | |
| 4206 | ||
| 4207 | Thanks to Richard Riley for triggering this change. | |
| 4208 | ||
| 4209 | **** Better automatic letter selection for TODO keywords | |
| 4210 | ||
| 4211 | When all first letters of keywords have been used, Org now | |
| 4212 | assigns more meaningful characters based on the keywords. | |
| 4213 | ||
| 4214 | Thanks to Mikael Fornius for this patch. | |
| 4215 | ||
| 4216 | *** Clocking | |
| 4217 | ||
| 4218 | **** Clock: Allow synchronous update of timestamps in CLOCK log | |
| 4219 | ||
| 4220 | Using =S-M-<up/down>= on CLOCK log timestamps will | |
| 4221 | increase/decrease the two timestamps on this line so that | |
| 4222 | duration will keep the same. Note that duration can still be | |
| 4223 | slightly modified in case a timestamp needs some rounding. | |
| 4224 | ||
| 4225 | Thanks to Rainer Stengele for this idea. | |
| 4226 | ||
| 4227 | **** Localized clock tables | |
| 4228 | ||
| 4229 | Clock tables now support a new new =:lang= parameter, allowing | |
| 4230 | the user to customize the localization of the table headers. See | |
| 4231 | the variable =org-clock-clocktable-language-setup= which controls | |
| 4232 | available translated strings. | |
| 4233 | ||
| 4234 | **** Show clock overruns in mode line | |
| 4235 | ||
| 4236 | When clocking an item with a planned effort, overrunning the | |
| 4237 | planned time is now made visible in the mode line, for example | |
| 4238 | using the new face =org-mode-line-clock-overrun=, or by adding an | |
| 4239 | extra string given by =org-task-overrun-text=. | |
| 4240 | ||
| 4241 | Thanks to Richard Riley for a patch to this effect. | |
| 4242 | ||
| 4243 | **** Clock reports can now include the running, incomplete clock | |
| 4244 | ||
| 4245 | If you have a clock running, and the entry being clocked falls | |
| 4246 | into the scope when creating a clock table, the time so far spent | |
| 4247 | can be added to the total. This behavior depends on the setting | |
| 4248 | of =org-clock-report-include-clocking-task=. The default is | |
| 4249 | =nil=. | |
| 4250 | ||
| 4251 | Thanks to Bernt Hansen for this useful addition. | |
| 4252 | ||
| 4253 | *** Misc | |
| 4254 | ||
| 4255 | **** Improvements with inline tasks and indentation | |
| 4256 | ||
| 4257 | There is now a configurable way on how to export inline tasks. | |
| 4258 | See the new variable =org-inlinetask-export-templates=. | |
| 4259 | ||
| 4260 | Thanks to Nicolas Goaziou for coding these changes. | |
| 4261 | ||
| 4262 | **** A property value of "nil" now means to unset a property | |
| 4263 | ||
| 4264 | This can be useful in particular with property inheritance, if | |
| 4265 | some upper level has the property, and some grandchild of it | |
| 4266 | would like to have the default settings (i.e. not overruled by a | |
| 4267 | property) back. | |
| 4268 | ||
| 4269 | Thanks to Robert Goldman and Bernt Hansen for suggesting this | |
| 4270 | change. | |
| 4271 | ||
| 4272 | **** New helper functions in org-table.el | |
| 4273 | ||
| 4274 | There are new functions to access and write to a specific table field. | |
| 4275 | This is for hackers, and maybe for the org-babel people. | |
| 4276 | ||
| 4277 | #+begin_example | |
| 4278 | org-table-get | |
| 4279 | org-table-put | |
| 4280 | org-table-current-line | |
| 4281 | org-table-goto-line | |
| 4282 | #+end_example | |
| 4283 | ||
| 4284 | **** Archiving: Allow to reverse order in target node | |
| 4285 | ||
| 4286 | The new option =org-archive-reversed-order= allows to have | |
| 4287 | archived entries inserted in a last-on-top fashion in the target | |
| 4288 | node. | |
| 4289 | ||
| 4290 | This was requested by Tom. | |
| 4291 | ||
| 4292 | **** Org-reveal: Double prefix arg shows the entire subtree of the parent | |
| 4293 | ||
| 4294 | This can help to get out of an inconsistent state produced for | |
| 4295 | example by viewing from the agenda. | |
| 4296 | ||
| 4297 | This was a request by Matt Lundin. | |
