  11. disambiguate their parsing from special blocks. The new syntax is
  12. #+BEGIN_SRC org
  13. ,#+BEGIN_EXPORT backend
  14. ...
  15. ,#+END_EXPORT
  16. #+END_SRC
  17. instead of
  18. #+BEGIN_SRC org
  19. ,#+BEGIN_backend
  20. ...
  21. ,#+END_backend
  22. #+END_SRC
  23. As a consequence, =INCLUDE= keywords syntax is modified, e.g.,
  24. #+BEGIN_SRC org
  25. ,#+INCLUDE: "file.org" HTML
  26. #+END_SRC
  27. becomes
  28. #+BEGIN_SRC org
  29. ,#+INCLUDE: "file.org" export html
  30. #+END_SRC
  31. The following function repairs export blocks and =INCLUDE= keywords
  32. using previous syntax:
  33. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  34. (defun org-repair-export-blocks ()
  35. "Repair export blocks and INCLUDE keywords in current buffer."
  36. (when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
  37. (let ((case-fold-search t)
  38. (back-end-re (regexp-opt
  39. '("HTML" "ASCII" "LATEX" "ODT" "MARKDOWN" "MD" "ORG"
  40. "MAN" "BEAMER" "TEXINFO" "GROFF" "KOMA-LETTER")
  41. t)))
  42. (org-with-wide-buffer
  43. (goto-char (point-min))
  44. (let ((block-re (concat "^[ \t]*#\\+BEGIN_" back-end-re)))
  45. (save-excursion
  46. (while (re-search-forward block-re nil t)
  47. (let ((element (save-match-data (org-element-at-point))))
  48. (when (eq (org-element-type element) 'special-block)
  49. (save-excursion
  50. (goto-char (org-element-property :end element))
  51. (save-match-data (search-backward "_"))
  52. (forward-char)
  53. (insert "EXPORT")
  54. (delete-region (point) (line-end-position)))
  55. (replace-match "EXPORT \\1" nil nil nil 1))))))
  56. (let ((include-re
  57. (format "^[ \t]*#\\+INCLUDE: .*?%s[ \t]*$" back-end-re)))
  58. (while (re-search-forward include-re nil t)
  59. (let ((element (save-match-data (org-element-at-point))))
  60. (when (and (eq (org-element-type element) 'keyword)
  61. (string= (org-element-property :key element) "INCLUDE"))
  62. (replace-match "EXPORT \\1" nil nil nil 1)))))))))
  63. #+END_SRC
  64. Moreover, ~:export-block~ keyword used in ~org-export-define-backend~
  65. and ~org-export-define-derived-backend~ is no longer used and needs to
  66. be removed.
  67. *** Footnotes
  68. **** [1]-like constructs are not valid footnotes
  69. Using =[1]= as a footnote was already discouraged in the manual, since
  70. it introduced too many false-positives in many Org documents. These
  71. constructs are now unsupported.
  72. If you used =[N]= in some of your documents, consider turning them
  73. into =[fn:N]=.
  74. **** /Org Footnote/ library doesn't handle non-Org buffers
  75. Commands for footnotes in an Org document no longer try to do
  76. something in non-Org ones. If you need to have footnotes there,
  77. consider using =footnote.el= library, shipped with Emacs.
  78. In particular, ~org-footnote-tag-for-non-org-mode-files~ no longer
  79. exists.
  80. *** ~org-file-apps~ no longer accepts S-expressions as commands
  81. The variable now accepts functions of two arguments instead of plain
  82. S-expressions. Replacing a S-expresion with an appropriate function
  83. is straightforward. For example
  84. : ("pdf" . (foo))
  85. becomes
  86. : ("pdf" . (lambda (file link) (foo)))
  87. *** The ~{{{modification-time}}}~ macro can obtain time via =vc=
  88. The modification time will be determined via =vc.el= if the second
  89. argument is non-nil. See the manual for details.
  90. ** New features
  91. *** New org-protocol key=value syntax
  92. Org-protocol can now handle query-style parameters such as:
  93. #+begin_example
  94. org-protocol://store-link?url=http:%2F%2Flocalhost%2Findex.html&title=The%20title
  95. org-protocol://capture?template=x&title=Hello&body=World&url=http:%2F%2Fexample.com
  96. #+end_example
  97. Old-style links such as
  98. : org-protocol://store-link:/http:%2F%2Flocalhost%2Findex.html/The%20title
  99. continue to be supported.
  100. If you have defined your own handler functions for
  101. ~org-protocol-protocol-alist~, change them to accept either a property
  102. list (for new-style links) or a string (for old-style links). Use
  103. ~org-protocol-parse-parameters~ to convert old-style links into
  104. property lists.
  105. *** Org linter
  106. ~org-lint~ can check syntax and report common issues in Org documents.
  107. *** New option ~date-tree-last~ for ~org-agenda-insert-diary-strategy~
  108. When ~org-agenda-insert-diary-strategy~ is set to ~date-tree-last~, diary
  109. entries are added to last in the date tree.
  110. *** New ~vbar~ entity
  111. ~\vbar~ or ~\vbar{}~ will be exported unconditionnally as a =|=,
  112. unlike to existing ~\vert~, which is expanded as ~|~ when using
  113. a HTML derived export back-end.
  114. *** Export
  115. **** New =#+latex_compiler= keyword to set LaTeX compiler.
  116. PDFLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and LuaLaTeX are supported. See the manual for
  117. details.
  118. **** New option ~org-export-with-broken-links~
  119. This option tells the export process how to behave when encountering
  120. a broken internal link. See its docstring for more information.
  121. **** Attributes support in custom language environments for LaTeX export
  122. Custom language environments for LaTeX export can now define the
  123. string to be inserted during export, using attributes to indicate the
  124. position of the elements. See variable ~org-latex-custom-lang-environments~
  125. for more details.
  126. **** New Texinfo ~options~ attribute on special blocks
  127. Using ~:options~ as a Texinfo attribute, it is possible to add
  128. information to custom environments. See manual for details.
  129. **** New HTML ~id~ attributes on special, example and quote blocks
  130. If the block has a =#+NAME:= attribute assigned, then the HTML element
  131. will have an ~id~ attribute with that name in the HTML export. This
  132. enables one to create links to these elements in other places, e.g.,
  133. ~<a href="#name">text</a>~.
  134. *** Babel
  135. **** Support for SLY in Lisp blocks
  136. See ~org-babel-lisp-eval-fn~ to activate it.
  137. **** Support for Stan language
  138. New ob-stan.el library.
  139. Evaluating a Stan block can produce two different results.
  140. 1. Dump the source code contents to a file.
  141. This file can then be used as a variable in other blocks, which
  142. allows interfaces like RStan to use the model.
  143. 2. Compile the contents to a model file.
  144. This provides access to the CmdStan interface. To use this, set
  145. ~org-babel-stan-cmdstan-directory~ and provide a ~:file~ argument
  146. that does not end in ".stan".
  147. For more information and usage examples, visit
  148. http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-stan.html
  149. **** Support for Oracle databases via ~sqlplus~
  150. =ob-sql= library supports running SQL blocks against an Oracle
  151. database using ~sqlplus~. Use with properties like this (all
  152. mandatory):
  153. #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
  154. :engine oracle
  155. :dbhost <host.com>
  156. :dbport <1521>
  157. :dbuser <username>
  158. :database <database>
  159. :dbpassword <secret>
  160. #+END_EXAMPLE
  161. **** Support for additional plantuml output formats
  162. The support for output formats of [[http://plantuml.com/][plantuml]] has been extended to now
  163. include:
  164. All Diagrams:
  165. - png ::
  166. - svg ::
  167. - eps ::
  168. - pdf ::
  169. - vdx ::
  170. - txt :: ASCII art
  171. - utxt :: ASCII art using unicode characters
  172. Class Diagrams:
  173. - xmi ::
  174. - html ::
  175. State Diagrams:
  176. - scxml ::
  177. The output formats are determined by the file extension specified
  178. using the :file property, e.g.:
  179. #+begin_src plantuml :file diagram.png
  180. @startuml
  181. Alice -> Bob: Authentication Request
  182. Bob --> Alice: Authentication Response
  183. Alice -> Bob: Another authentication Request
  184. Alice <-- Bob: another authentication Response
  185. @enduml
  186. #+end_src
  187. Please note that *pdf* *does not work out of the box* and needss
  188. additional setup in addition to plantuml. See
  189. [[http://plantuml.com/pdf.html]] for details and setup information.
  190. *** Rewrite of radio lists
  191. Radio lists, i.e, Org plain lists in foreign buffers, have been
  192. rewritten to be on par with Radio tables. You can use a large set of
  193. parameters to control how a given list should be rendered. See manual
  194. for details.
  195. *** org-bbdb-anniversaries-future
  196. Used like org-bbdb-anniversaries, it provides a few days warning
  197. for upcoming anniversaries (default: 7 days).
  198. *** Clear non-repeated SCHEDULED upon repeating a task
  199. If the task is repeated, and therefore done at least one, scheduling
  200. information is no longer relevant. It is therefore removed.
  201. See [[git:481719fbd5751aaa9c672b762cb43aea8ee986b0][commit message]] for more information.
  202. *** Support for ISO week trees
  203. ISO week trees are an alternative date tree format that orders entries
  204. by ISO week and not by month.
  205. For example:
  206. : * 2015
  207. : ** 2015-W35
  208. : ** 2015-W36
  209. : *** 2015-08-31 Monday
  210. They are supported in org-capture via ~file+weektree~ and
  211. ~file+weektree+prompt~ target specifications.
  212. *** Accept ~:indent~ parameter when capturing column view
  213. When defining a "columnview" dynamic block, it is now possible to add
  214. an :indent parameter, much like the one in the clock table.
  215. On the other hand, stars no longer appear in an ITEM field.
  216. *** Columns view
  217. **** ~org-columns~ accepts a prefix argument
  218. When called with a prefix argument, ~org-columns~ apply to the whole
  219. buffer unconditionally.
  220. **** New variable : ~org-agenda-view-columns-initially~
  221. The variable used to be a ~defvar~, it is now a ~defcustom~.
  222. **** Allow custom summaries
  223. It is now possible to add new summary types, or override those
  224. provided by Org by customizing ~org-columns-summary-types~, which see.
  225. **** Allow multiple summaries for any property
  226. Columns can now summarize the same property using different summary
  227. types.
  228. *** Preview LaTeX snippets in buffers not visiting files
  229. *** New option ~org-attach-commit~
  230. When non-nil, commit attachments with git, assuming the document is in
  231. a git repository.
  232. *** Allow conditional case-fold searches in ~org-occur~
  233. When set to ~smart~, the new variable ~org-occur-case-fold-search~
  234. allows to mimic =isearch.el=: if the regexp searched contains any
  235. upper case character (or character class), the search is case
  236. sensitive. Otherwise, it is case insensitive.
  237. *** More robust repeated =ox-latex= footnote handling
  238. Repeated footnotes are now numbered by referring to a label in the
  239. first footnote.
  240. ** New functions
  241. *** ~org-next-line-empty-p~
  242. It replaces the deprecated ~next~ argument to ~org-previous-line-empty-p~.
  243. *** ~org-show-children~
  244. It is a faster implementation of ~outline-show-children~.
  245. ** Removed functions
  246. *** ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag-refine~ has been removed.
  247. Use ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~ instead.
  248. *** ~org-agenda-todayp~ is deprecated.
  249. Use ~org-agenda-today-p~ instead.
  250. *** ~org-babel-get-header~ is removed.
  251. Use ~org-babel--get-vars~ or ~assq~ instead, as applicable.
  252. *** ~org-element-remove-indentation~ is deprecated.
  253. Use ~org-remove-indentation~ instead.
  254. *** ~org-image-file-name-regexp~ is deprecated
  255. Use ~image-file-name-regexp~ instead.
  256. The never-used-in-core ~extensions~ argument has been dropped.
  257. *** ~org-list-parse-list~ is deprecated
  258. Use ~org-list-to-lisp~ instead.
  259. *** ~org-on-heading-p~ is deprecated
  260. A comment to this effect was in the source code since 7.8.03, but
  261. now a byte-compiler warning will be generated as well.
  262. *** ~org-table-p~ is deprecated
  263. Use ~org-at-table-p~ instead.
  264. *** ~org-table-recognize-table.el~ is deprecated
  265. It was not called by any org code since 2010.
  266. *** Various reimplementations of cl-lib functions are deprecated
  267. The affected functions are:
  268. - ~org-count~
  269. - ~org-remove-if~
  270. - ~org-remove-if-not~
  271. - ~org-reduce~
  272. - ~org-every~
  273. - ~org-some~
  274. Additionally, ~org-sublist~ is deprecated in favor of ~cl-subseq~. Note
  275. the differences in indexing conventions: ~org-sublist~ is 1-based and
  276. end-inclusive; ~cl-subseq~ is 0-based and end-exclusive.
  277. ** Removed options
  278. *** Remove all options related to ~ido~ or ~iswitchb~
  279. This includes ~org-completion-use-iswitchb~ and ~org-completion-use-ido~.
  280. Instead Org uses regular functions, e.g., ~completion-read~ so as to
  281. let those libraries operate.
  282. *** Remove ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~
  283. Two consecutive blank lines always terminate all levels of current
  284. plain list.
  285. *** ~fixltx2e~ is removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~
  286. fixltx2e is obsolete, see LaTeX News 22.
  287. ** Miscellaneous
  288. *** Allow angular links within link descriptions
  289. It is now allowed to write, e.g.,
  290. ~[[http:orgmode.org][<file:unicorn.png>]]~ as an equivalent to
  291. ~[[http:orgmode.org][file:unicorn.png]]~. The advantage of the former
  292. is that spaces are allowed within the path.
  293. *** Beamer export back-ends uses ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~
  294. *** ~:preparation-function~ called earlier during publishing
  295. Functions in this list are called before any file is associated to the
  296. current projet. Thus, they can be used to generate to be published
  297. Org files.
  298. *** Function ~org-remove-indentation~ changes.
  299. The new algorithm doesn't remove TAB characters not used for
  300. indentation.
  301. *** Secure placeholders in capture templates
  302. Placeholders in capture templates are no longer expanded recursively.
  303. However, ~%(...)~ constructs are expanded very late, so you can fill
  304. the contents of the S-exp with the replacement text of non-interactive
  305. placeholders. As before, interactive ones are still expanded as the
  306. very last step, so the previous statement doesn't apply to them.
  307. Note that only ~%(...)~ placeholders initially present in the
  308. template, or introduced using a file placeholder, i.e., ~%[...]~ are
  309. expanded. This prevents evaluating potentially malicious code when
  310. another placeholder, e.g., ~%i~ expands to a S-exp.
  311. *** Links stored by ~org-gnus-store-link~ in nnir groups
  312. Since gnus nnir groups are temporary, ~org-gnus-store-link~ now refers
  313. to the article's original group.
  314. *** ~org-babel-check-confirm-evaluate~ is now a function instead of a macro
  315. The calling convention has changed.
  316. *** HTML export table row customization changes
  317. Variable ~org-html-table-row-tags~ has been split into
  318. ~org-html-table-row-open-tag~ and ~org-html-table-row-close-tag~.
  319. Both new variables can be either a string or a function which will be
  320. called with 6 parameters.
  321. *** =ITEM= special property returns headline without stars
  322. *** Rename ~org-insert-columns-dblock~ into ~org-columns-insert-dblock~
  323. The previous name is, for the time being, kept as an obsolete alias.
  324. *** Function ~org-info-export~ changes.
  325. HTML links created from certain info links now point to =gnu.org= URL's rather
  326. than just to local files. For example info links such as =info:emacs#List
  327. Buffers= used to be converted to HTML links like this:
  328. : <a href="emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a>
  329. where local file =emacs.html= is referenced.
  330. For most folks this file does not exist.
  331. Thus the new behavior is to generate this HTML link instead:
  332. : <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_mono/emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a>
  333. All emacs related info links are similarly translated plus few other =gnu.org= manuals.
  334. * Version 8.3
  335. ** Incompatible changes
  336. *** Properties drawers syntax changes
  337. Properties drawers are now required to be located right after a
  338. headline and its planning line, when applicable.
  339. It will break some documents as TODO states changes were sometimes
  340. logged before the property drawer.
  341. The following function will repair them:
  342. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  343. (defun org-repair-property-drawers ()
  344. "Fix properties drawers in current buffer.
  345. Ignore non Org buffers."
  346. (when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
  347. (org-with-wide-buffer
  348. (goto-char (point-min))
  349. (let ((case-fold-search t)
  350. (inline-re (and (featurep 'org-inlinetask)
  351. (concat (org-inlinetask-outline-regexp)
  352. "END[ \t]*$"))))
  353. (org-map-entries
  354. (lambda ()
  355. (unless (and inline-re (org-looking-at-p inline-re))
  356. (save-excursion
  357. (let ((end (save-excursion (outline-next-heading) (point))))
  358. (forward-line)
  359. (when (org-looking-at-p org-planning-line-re) (forward-line))
  360. (when (and (< (point) end)
  361. (not (org-looking-at-p org-property-drawer-re))
  362. (save-excursion
  363. (and (re-search-forward org-property-drawer-re end t)
  364. (eq (org-element-type
  365. (save-match-data (org-element-at-point)))
  366. 'drawer))))
  367. (insert (delete-and-extract-region
  368. (match-beginning 0)
  369. (min (1+ (match-end 0)) end)))
  370. (unless (bolp) (insert "\n"))))))))))))
  371. #+END_SRC
  372. *** Using "COMMENT" is now equivalent to commenting with "#"
  373. If you used "COMMENT" in headlines to prevent a subtree from being
  374. exported, you can still do it but all information within the subtree
  375. is now commented out, i.e. no #+OPTIONS line will be parsed or taken
  376. into account when exporting.
  377. If you want to exclude a headline from export while using its contents
  378. for setting options, use =:noexport:= (see =org-export-exclude-tags=.)
  379. *** =#+CATEGORY= keywords no longer apply partially to document
  380. It was possible to use several such keywords and have them apply to
  381. the text below until the next one, but strongly deprecated since Org
  382. 5.14 (2008).
  383. =#+CATEGORY= keywords are now global to the document. You can use node
  384. properties to set category for a subtree, e.g.,
  385. #+BEGIN_SRC org
  386. ,* Headline
  387. :PROPERTIES:
  388. :CATEGORY: some category
  389. :END:
  390. #+END_SRC
  391. *** New variable to control visibility when revealing a location
  392. ~org-show-following-heading~, ~org-show-siblings~, ~org-show-entry-below~
  393. and ~org-show-hierarchy-above~ no longer exist. Instead, visibility is
  394. controlled through a single variable: ~org-show-context-detail~, which
  395. see.
  396. *** Replace disputed keys again when reading a date
  397. ~org-replace-disputed-keys~ has been ignored when reading date since
  398. version 8.1, but the former behavior is restored again.
  399. Keybinding for reading date can be customized with a new variable
  400. ~org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map~.
  401. *** No default title is provided when =TITLE= keyword is missing
  402. Skipping =TITLE= keyword no longer provides the current file name, or
  403. buffer name, as the title. Instead, simply ignore the title.
  404. *** Default bindings of =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= changed
  405. The key sequences =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= are now bound to
  406. ~org-next-visible-heading~ and ~org-previous-visible-heading~ respectively,
  407. rather than the =outline-mode= versions of these functions. The Org
  408. version of these functions skips over inline tasks (and even-level
  409. headlines when ~org-odd-levels-only~ is set).
  410. *** ~org-element-context~ no longer return objects in keywords
  411. ~org-element-context~ used to return objects on some keywords, i.e.,
  412. =TITLE=, =DATE= and =AUTHOR=. It now returns only the keyword.
  413. *** ~org-timer-default-timer~ type changed from number to string
  414. If you have, in your configuration, something like =(setq
  415. org-timer-default-timer 10)= replace it with =(setq
  416. org-timer-default-timer "10")=.
  417. *** Functions signature changes
  418. The following functions require an additional argument. See their
  419. docstring for more information.
  420. - ~org-export-collect-footnote-definitions~
  421. - ~org-html-format-headline-function~
  422. - ~org-html-format-inlinetask-function~
  423. - ~org-latex-format-headline-function~
  424. - ~org-latex-format-inlinetask-function~
  425. - ~org-link-search~
  426. ** New features
  427. *** Default lexical evaluation of emacs-lisp src blocks
  428. Emacs-lisp src blocks in babel are now evaluated using lexical scoping. There is a new header to control this behavior.
  429. The default results in an eval with lexical scoping.
  430. :lexical yes
  431. This turns lexical scoping off in the eval (the former behavior).
  432. :lexical no
  433. This uses the lexical environment with x=42 in the eval.
  434. :lexical '((x . 42))
  435. *** Behavior of ~org-return~ changed
  436. If point is before or after the headline title, insert a new line
  437. without changing the headline.
  438. *** Hierarchies of tags
  439. The functionality of nesting tags in hierarchies is added to org-mode.
  440. This is the generalization of what was previously called "Tag groups"
  441. in the manual. That term is now changed to "Tag hierarchy".
  442. The following in-buffer definition:
  443. #+BEGIN_SRC org
  444. ,#+TAGS: [ Group : SubOne SubTwo ]
  445. ,#+TAGS: [ SubOne : SubOne1 SubOne2 ]
  446. ,#+TAGS: [ SubTwo : SubTwo1 SubTwo2 ]
  447. #+END_SRC
  448. Should be seen as the following tree of tags:
  449. - Group
  450. - SubOne
  451. - SubOne1
  452. - SubOne2
  453. - SubTwo
  454. - SubTwo1
  455. - SubTwo2
  456. Searching for "Group" should return all tags defined above. Filtering
  457. on SubOne filters also it's sub-tags. Etc.
  458. There is no limit on the depth for the tag hierarchy.
  459. *** Additional syntax for non-unique grouptags
  460. Additional syntax is defined for grouptags if the tags in the group
  461. don't have to be distinct on a heading.
  462. Grouptags had to previously be defined with { }. This syntax is
  463. already used for exclusive tags and Grouptags need their own,
  464. non-exclusive syntax. This behaviour is achieved with [ ]. Note: {
  465. } can still be used also for Grouptags but then only one of the
  466. given tags can be used on the headline at the same time. Example:
  467. [ group : sub1 sub2 ]
  468. #+BEGIN_SRC org
  469. ,* Test :sub1:sub2:
  470. #+END_SRC
  471. This is a more general case than the already existing syntax for
  472. grouptags; { }.
  473. *** Define regular expression patterns as tags
  474. Tags can be defined as grouptags with regular expressions as
  475. "sub-tags".
  476. The regular expressions in the group must be marked up within { }.
  477. Example use:
  478. : #+TAGS: [ Project : {P@.+} ]
  479. Searching for the tag Project will now list all tags also including
  480. regular expression matches for P@.+. Good for example if tags for a
  481. certain project is tagged with a common project-identifier,
  482. i.e. P@2014_OrgTags.
  483. *** Filtering in the agenda on grouptags (Tag hierarchies)
  484. Filtering in the agenda on grouptags filter all of the related tags.
  485. Exception if filter is applied with a (double) prefix-argument.
  486. Filtering in the agenda on subcategories does not filter the "above"
  487. levels anymore.
  488. If a grouptag contains a regular expression the regular expression
  489. is also used as a filter.
  490. *** Minor refactoring of ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~
  491. Now uses the argument arg and optional argument exclude instead of
  492. strip and narrow. ARG because the argument has multiple purposes and
  493. makes more sense than strip now. The term narrowing is changed to
  494. exclude.
  495. The main purpose is for the function to make more logical sense when
  496. filtering on tags now when tags can be structured in hierarchies.
  497. *** Babel: support for sed scripts
  498. Thanks to Bjarte Johansen for this feature.
  499. *** Babel: support for Processing language
  500. New ob-processing.el library.
  501. This library implements necessary functions for implementing editing
  502. of Processing code blocks, viewing the resulting sketches in an
  503. external viewer, and HTML export of the sketches.
  504. Check the documentation for more.
  505. Thanks to Jarmo Hurri for this feature.
  506. *** New behaviour for `org-toggle-latex-fragment'
  507. The new behaviour is the following:
  508. - With a double prefix argument or with a single prefix argument
  509. when point is before the first headline, toggle overlays in the
  510. whole buffer;
  511. - With a single prefix argument, toggle overlays in the current
  512. subtree;
  513. - On latex code, toggle overlay at point;
  514. - Otherwise, toggle overlays in the current section.
  515. *** Additional markup with =#+INCLUDE= keyword
  516. The content of the included file can now be optionally marked up, for
  517. instance as HTML. See the documentation for details.
  518. *** File links with =#+INCLUDE= keyword
  519. Objects can be extracted via =#+INCLUDE= using file links. It is
  520. possible to include only the contents of the object. See manual for
  521. more information.
  522. *** Drawers do not need anymore to be referenced in =#+DRAWERS=
  523. One can use a drawer without listing it in the =#+DRAWERS= keyword,
  524. which is now obsolete. As a consequence, this change also deprecates
  525. ~org-drawers~ variable.
  526. *** ~org-edit-special~ can edit export blocks
  527. Using C-c ' on an export block now opens a sub-editing buffer. Major
  528. mode in that buffer is determined by export backend name (e.g.,
  529. "latex" \to "latex-mode"). You can define exceptions to this rule by
  530. configuring ~org-src-lang-modes~, which see.
  531. *** Additional =:hline= processing to ob-shell
  532. If the argument =:hlines yes= is present in a babel call, an optional
  533. argument =:hlines-string= can be used to define a string to use as a
  534. representation for the lisp symbol ='hline= in the shell program. The
  535. default is =hline=.
  536. *** Markdown export supports switches in source blocks
  537. For example, it is now possible to number lines using the =-n= switch
  538. in a source block.
  539. *** New option in ASCII export
  540. Plain lists can have an extra margin by setting
  541. ~org-ascii-list-margin~ variable to an appopriate integer.
  542. *** New blocks in ASCII export
  543. ASCII export now supports =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYRIGHT= and
  544. =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYLEFT= blocks. See documentation for details.
  545. *** More back-end specific publishing options
  546. The number of publishing options specific to each back-end has been
  547. increased. See manual for details.
  548. *** Export inline source blocks
  549. Inline source code was used to be removed upon exporting. They are
  550. now handled as standard code blocks, i.e., the source code can appear
  551. in the output, depending on the parameters.
  552. *** Extend ~org-export-first-sibling-p~ and ~org-export-last-sibling-p~
  553. These functions now support any element or object, not only headlines.
  554. *** New function: ~org-export-table-row-in-header-p~
  555. *** New function: ~org-export-get-reference~
  556. *** New function: ~org-element-lineage~
  557. This function deprecates ~org-export-get-genealogy~. It also provides
  558. more features. See docstring for details.
  559. *** New function: ~org-element-copy~
  560. *** New filter: ~org-export-filter-body-functions~
  561. Functions in this filter are applied on the body of the exported
  562. document, befor wrapping it within the template.
  563. *** New :environment parameter when exporting example blocks to LaTeX
  564. : #+ATTR_LATEX: :environment myverbatim
  565. : #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
  566. : This sentence is false.
  567. : #+END_EXAMPLE
  568. will be exported using =@samp(myverbatim)= instead of =@samp(verbatim)=.
  569. *** Various improvements on radio tables
  570. Radio tables feature now relies on Org's export framework ("ox.el").
  571. ~:no-escape~ parameter no longer exists, but additional global
  572. parameters are now supported: ~:raw~, ~:backend~. Moreover, there are
  573. new parameters specific to some pre-defined translators, e.g.,
  574. ~:environment~ and ~:booktabs~ for ~orgtbl-to-latex~. See translators
  575. docstrings (including ~orgtbl-to-generic~) for details.
  576. *** Non-floating minted listings in Latex export
  577. It is not possible to specify =#+attr_latex: :float nil= in conjunction with
  578. source blocks exported by the minted package.
  579. *** Field formulas can now create columns as needed
  580. Previously, evaluating formulas that referenced out-of-bounds columns
  581. would throw an error. A new variable
  582. ~org-table-formula-create-columns~ was added to adjust this
  583. behavior. It is now possible to silently add new columns, to do so
  584. with a warning or to explicitly ask the user each time.
  585. *** ASCII plot
  586. Ability to plot values in a column through ASCII-art bars. See manual
  587. for details.
  588. *** New hook: ~org-archive-hook~
  589. This hook is called after successfully archiving a subtree, with point
  590. on the original subtree, not yet deleted.
  591. *** New option: ~org-attach-archive-delete~
  592. When non-nil, attachments from archived subtrees are removed.
  593. *** New option: ~org-latex-caption-above~
  594. This variable generalizes ~org-latex-table-caption-above~, which is
  595. now deprecated. In addition to tables, it applies to source blocks,
  596. special blocks and images. See docstring for more information.
  597. *** New option: ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~
  598. See docstring for more information.
  599. *** Export unnumbered headlines
  600. Headlines, for which the property ~UNNUMBERED~ is non-nil, are now
  601. exported without section numbers irrespective of their levels. The
  602. property is inherited by children.
  603. *** Tables can be sorted with an arbitrary function
  604. It is now possible to specify a function, both programatically,
  605. through a new optional argument, and interactively with ~f~ or ~F~
  606. keys, to sort a table.
  607. *** Table of contents can be local to a section
  608. The ~TOC~ keywords now accepts an optional ~local~ parameter. See
  609. manual for details.
  610. *** Countdown timers can now be paused
  611. ~org-timer-pause-time~ now pauses and restarts both relative and
  612. countdown timers.
  613. *** New option ~only-window~ for ~org-agenda-window-setup~
  614. When ~org-agenda-window-setup~ is set to ~only-window~, the agenda is
  615. displayed as the sole window of the current frame.
  616. *** ~{{{date}}}~ macro supports optional formatting argument
  617. It is now possible to supply and optional formatting argument to
  618. ~{{{date}}}~. See manual for details.
  619. *** ~{{{property}}}~ macro supports optional search argument
  620. It is now possible to supply an optional search option to
  621. ~{{{property}}}~ in order to retrieve remote properties optional. See
  622. manual for details.
  623. *** New option ~org-export-with-title~
  624. It is possible to suppress the title insertion with ~#+OPTIONS:
  625. title:nil~ or globally using the variable ~org-export-with-title~.
  626. *** New entities family: "\_ "
  627. "\_ " are used to insert up to 20 contiguous spaces in various
  628. back-ends. In particular, this family can be used to introduce
  629. leading spaces within table cells.
  630. *** New MathJax configuration options
  631. Org uses the MathJax CDN by default. See the manual and the docstring
  632. of ~org-html-mathjax-options~ for details.
  633. *** New behaviour in `org-export-options-alist'
  634. When defining a back-end, it is now possible to specify to give
  635. `parse' behaviour on a keyword. It is equivalent to call
  636. `org-element-parse-secondary-string' on the value.
  637. However, parsed =KEYWORD= is automatically associated to an
  638. =:EXPORT_KEYWORD:= property, which can be used to override the keyword
  639. value during a subtree export. Moreover, macros are expanded in such
  640. keywords and properties.
  641. *** Viewport support in html export
  642. Viewport for mobile-optimized website is now automatically inserted
  643. when exporting to html. See ~org-html-viewport~ for details.
  644. *** New ~#+SUBTITLE~ export keyword
  645. Org can typeset a subtitle in some export backends. See the manual
  646. for details.
  647. *** Remotely edit a footnote definition
  648. Calling ~org-edit-footnote-reference~ (C-c ') on a footnote reference
  649. allows to edit its definition, as long as it is not anonymous, in
  650. a dedicated buffer. It works even if buffer is currently narrowed.
  651. *** New function ~org-delete-indentation~ bound to ~M-^~
  652. Work as ~delete-indentation~ unless at heading, in which case text is
  653. added to headline text.
  654. *** Support for images in Texinfo export
  655. ~Texinfo~ back-end now handles images. See manual for details.
  656. *** Support for captions in Texinfo export
  657. Tables and source blocks can now have captions. Additionally, lists
  658. of tables and lists of listings can be inserted in the document with
  659. =#+TOC= keyword.
  660. *** Countdown timer support hh:mm:ss format
  661. In addition to setting countdown timers in minutes, they can also be
  662. set using the hh:mm:ss format.
  663. *** Extend ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~
  664. ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~ now accepts 0 as an argument for
  665. the number of clones, which removes the repeater from the original
  666. subtree and creates one shifted, repeating clone.
  667. *** New time block for clock tables: ~untilnow~
  668. It encompasses all past closed clocks.
  669. *** Support for the ~polyglossia~ LaTeX package
  670. See the docstring of ~org-latex-classes~ and
  671. ~org-latex-guess-polyglossia-language~ for details.
  672. *** None-floating tables, graphics and blocks can have captions
  673. *** `org-insert-heading' can be forced to insert top-level headline
  674. ** Removed functions
  675. *** Removed function ~org-translate-time~
  676. Use ~org-timestamp-translate~ instead.
  677. *** Removed function ~org-beamer-insert-options-template~
  678. This function inserted a Beamer specific template at point or in
  679. current subtree. Use ~org-export-insert-default-template~ instead, as
  680. it provides more features and covers all export back-ends. It is also
  681. accessible from the export dispatcher.
  682. *** Removed function ~org-timer-cancel-timer~
  683. ~org-timer-stop~ now stops both relative and countdown timers.
  684. *** Removed function ~org-export-solidify-link-text~
  685. This function, being non-bijective, introduced bug in internal
  686. references. Use ~org-export-get-reference~ instead.
  687. *** Removed function ~org-end-of-meta-data-and-drawers~
  688. The function is superseded by ~org-end-of-meta-data~, called with an
  689. optional argument.
  690. *** Removed functions ~org-table-colgroup-line-p~, ~org-table-cookie-line-p~
  691. These functions were left-over from pre 8.0 era. They are not correct
  692. anymore. Since they are not needed, they have no replacement.
  693. ** Removed options
  694. *** ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~ is deprecated
  695. It will be kept in code base until next release, for backward
  696. compatibility.
  697. If you need to separate consecutive lists with blank lines, always use
  698. two of them, as if this option was nil (default value).
  699. *** ~org-export-with-creator~ is a boolean
  700. Special ~comment~ value is no longer allowed. It is possible to use a
  701. body filter to add comments about the creator at the end of the
  702. document instead.
  703. *** Removed option =org-html-use-unicode-chars=
  704. Setting this to non-nil was problematic as it converted characters
  705. everywhere in the buffer, possibly corrupting URLs.
  706. *** Removed option =org-babel-sh-command=
  707. This undocumented option defaulted to the value of =shell-file-name=
  708. at the time of loading =ob-shell=. The new behaviour is to use the
  709. value of =shell-file-name= directly when the shell langage is =shell=.
  710. To chose a different shell, either customize =shell-file-name= or bind
  711. this variable locally.
  712. *** Removed option =org-babel-sh-var-quote-fmt=
  713. This undocumented option was supposed to provide different quoting
  714. styles when changing the shell type. Changing the shell type can now
  715. be done directly from the source block and the quoting style has to be
  716. compatible across all shells, so a customization doesn't make sense
  717. anymore. The chosen hard coded quoting style conforms to POSIX.
  718. *** Removed option ~org-insert-labeled-timestamps-at-point~
  719. Setting this option to anything else that the default value (nil)
  720. would create invalid planning info. This dangerous option is now
  721. removed.
  722. *** Removed option ~org-koma-letter-use-title~
  723. Use org-export-with-title instead. See also below.
  724. *** Removed option ~org-entities-ascii-explanatory~
  725. This variable has no effect since Org 8.0.
  726. *** Removed option ~org-table-error-on-row-ref-crossing-hline~
  727. This variable has no effect since August 2009.
  728. *** Removed MathML-related options from ~org-html-mathjax-options~
  729. MathJax automatically chooses the best display technology based on the
  730. end-users browser. You may force initial usage of MathML via
  731. ~org-html-mathjax-template~ or by setting the ~path~ property of
  732. ~org-html-mathjax-options~.
  733. *** Removed comment-related filters
  734. ~org-export-filter-comment-functions~ and
  735. ~org-export-filter-comment-block-functions~ variables do not exist
  736. anymore.
  737. ** Miscellaneous
  738. *** Strip all meta data from ITEM special property
  739. ITEM special property does not contain TODO, priority or tags anymore.
  740. *** File names in links accept are now compatible with URI syntax
  741. Absolute file names can now start with =///= in addition to =/=. E.g.,
  742. =[[file:///home/me/unicorn.jpg]]=.
  743. *** Footnotes in included files are now local to the file
  744. As a consequence, it is possible to include multiple Org files with
  745. footnotes in a master document without being concerned about footnote
  746. labels colliding.
  747. *** Mailto links now use regular URI syntax
  748. This change deprecates old Org syntax for mailto links:
  749. =mailto:user@domain::Subject=.
  750. *** =QUOTE= keywords do not exist anymore
  751. =QUOTE= keywords have been deprecated since Org 8.2.
  752. *** Select tests to perform with the build system
  753. The build system has been enhanced to allow test selection with a
  754. regular expression by defining =BTEST_RE= during the test invocation.
  755. This is especially useful during bisection to find just when a
  756. particular test failure was introduced.
  757. *** Exact heading search for external links ignore spaces and cookies
  758. Exact heading search for links now ignore spaces and cookies. This is
  759. the case for links of the form ~file:projects.org::*task title~, as
  760. well as links of the form ~file:projects.org::some words~
  761. when ~org-link-search-must-match-exact-headline~ is not nil.
  762. *** ~org-latex-hyperref-template~, ~org-latex-title-command~ formatting
  763. New formatting keys are supported. See the respective docstrings.
  764. Note, ~org-latex-hyperref-template~ has a new default value.
  765. *** ~float, wasysym, marvosym~ are removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~
  766. If you require any of these package add them to your preamble via
  767. ~org-latex-packages-alist~. Org also uses default LaTeX ~\tolerance~
  768. now.
  769. *** When exporting, throw an error on unresolved id/fuzzy links and code refs
  770. This helps spotting wrong links.
  771. * Version 8.2
  772. ** Incompatible changes
  773. *** =ob-sh.el= renamed to =ob-shell=
  774. This may require two changes in user config.
  775. 1. In =org-babel-do-load-languages=, change =(sh . t)= to =(shell . t)=.
  776. 2. Edit =local.mk= files to change the value of =BTEST_OB_LANGUAGES=
  777. to remove "sh" and include "shell".
  778. *** Combine org-mac-message.el and org-mac-link-grabber into org-mac-link.el
  779. Please remove calls to =(require 'org-mac-message)= and =(require
  780. 'org-mac-link-grabber)= in your =.emacs= initialization file. All you
  781. need now is =(require 'org-mac-link)=.
  782. Additionally, replace any calls to =ogml-grab-link= to
  783. =org-mac-grab-link=. For example, replace this line:
  784. : (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'omgl-grab-link)
  785. with this:
  786. : (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'org-mac-grab-link)
  787. *** HTML export: Replace =HTML_HTML5_FANCY= by =:html-html5-fancy= (...)
  788. Some of the HTML specific export options in Org <8.1 are either nil or
  789. t, like =#+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=. We replaced these binary options with
  790. option keywords like :html-include-style.
  791. So you need to replace
  792. : #+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE: t
  793. by
  794. : #+OPTIONS: :html-include-style t
  795. Options affected by this change: =HTML5_FANCY=, =HTML_INCLUDE_SCRIPTS=
  796. and =HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=.
  797. *** Add an argument to ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-buffer~
  798. ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-file~ can run in a different
  799. process when provided a non-nil =ASYNC= optional argument, without
  800. relying on ~org-export-async-start~ macro.
  801. Since =ASYNC= is the first of optional arguments, you have to shift
  802. the other optional arguments accordingly.
  803. *** Export back-ends are now structures
  804. Export back-ends are now structures, and stored as such in the
  805. communication channel during an export process. In other words, from
  806. now on, ~(plist-get info :back-end)~ will return a structure instead
  807. of a symbol.
  808. Arguments in hooks and in filters are still symbols, though.
  809. ** Important bugfixes
  810. *** [[doc:org-insert-heading][org-insert-heading]] has been rewritten and bugs are now fixed
  811. *** The replacement of disputed keys is now turned of when reading a date
  812. *** Match string for sparse trees can now contain a slash in a property value
  813. You can now have searches like SOMEPROP="aaa/bbb". Until now,
  814. this would break because the slash would be interpreted as the
  815. separator starting a TOTO match string.
  816. ** New features
  817. *** =C-c ^ x= will now sort checklist items by their checked status
  818. See [[doc:org-sort-list][org-sort-list]]: hitting =C-c ^ x= will put checked items at the end
  819. of the list.
  820. *** Various LaTeX export enhancements
  821. - Support SVG images
  822. - Support for .pgf files
  823. - LaTeX Babel blocks can now be exported as =.tikz= files
  824. - Allow =latexmk= as an option for [[doc:org-latex-pdf-process][org-latex-pdf-process]]
  825. - When using =\usepackage[AUTO]{babel}=, AUTO will automatically be
  826. replaced with a value compatible with ~org-export-default-language~
  827. or ~LANGUAGE~ keyword.
  828. - The dependency on the =latexsym= LaTeX package has been removed, we
  829. now use =amssymb= symbols by default instead.
  830. *** New functions for paragraph motion
  831. The commands =C-down= and =C-up= now invoke special commands
  832. that use knowledge from the org-elements parser to move the cursor
  833. in a paragraph-like way.
  834. *** New entities in =org-entities.el=
  835. Add support for ell, imath, jmath, varphi, varpi, aleph, gimel, beth,
  836. dalet, cdots, S (§), dag, ddag, colon, therefore, because, triangleq,
  837. leq, geq, lessgtr, lesseqgtr, ll, lll, gg, ggg, prec, preceq,
  838. preccurlyeq, succ, succeq, succurlyeq, setminus, nexist(s), mho,
  839. check, frown, diamond. Changes loz, vert, checkmark, smile and tilde.
  840. *** Anonymous export back-ends
  841. ~org-export-create-backend~ can create anonymous export back-ends,
  842. which can then be passed to export functions like
  843. ~org-export-to-file~, ~org-export-to-buffer~ or ~org-export-as~.
  844. It allows for quick translation of Org syntax without the overhead of
  845. registering a new back-end.
  846. *** New agenda fortnight view
  847. The agenda has not, in addition to day, week, month, and year
  848. views, also a fortnight view covering 14 days.
  849. ** New options
  850. *** New option [[doc:org-bookmark-names-plist][org-bookmark-names-plist]]
  851. This allows to specify the names of automatic bookmarks.
  852. *** New option [[doc:org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties][org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties]]
  853. This allows more flexibility when optimizing the agenda generation.
  854. See http://orgmode.org/worg/agenda-optimization.html for details.
  855. *** New option: [[doc:org-html-link-use-abs-url][org-html-link-use-abs-url]] to force using absolute URLs
  856. This is an export/publishing option, and should be used either within
  857. the =#+OPTIONS= line(s) or within a [[doc:org-publish-project-alist][org-publish-project-alist]].
  858. Setting this option to =t= is needed when the HTML output does not
  859. allow relative URLs. For example, the =contrib/lisp/ox-rss.el=
  860. library produces a RSS feed, and RSS feeds need to use absolute URLs,
  861. so a combination of =:html-link-home "..." and :html-link-use-abs-url
  862. t= is required---see the configuration example in the comment section
  863. of =ox-rss.el=.
  864. *** New option [[doc:org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd][org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd]]
  865. This makes java executable configurable for ditaa blocks.
  866. *** New options [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex][org-babel-latex-htlatex]] and [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages][org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages]]
  867. This enables SVG generation from latex code blocks.
  868. *** New option: [[doc:org-habit-show-done-always-green][org-habit-show-done-always-green]]
  869. See [[http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-05/msg00214.html][this message]] from Max Mikhanosha.
  870. *** New option: [[doc:org-babel-inline-result-wrap][org-babel-inline-result-wrap]]
  871. If you set this to the following
  872. : (setq org-babel-inline-result-wrap "$%s$")
  873. then inline code snippets will be wrapped into the formatting string.
  874. *** New option: [[doc:org-special-ctrl-o][org-special-ctrl-o]]
  875. This variable can be used to turn off the special behavior of
  876. =C-o= in tables.
  877. ** New contributed packages
  878. - =ox-bibtex.el= by Nicolas Goaziou :: an utility to handle BibTeX
  879. export to both LaTeX and HTML exports. It uses the [[http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/][bibtex2html]]
  880. software.
  881. - =org-screenshot.el= by Max Mikhanosha :: an utility to handle
  882. screenshots easily from Org, using the external tool [[http://freecode.com/projects/scrot][scrot]].
  883. ** Miscellaneous
  884. *** "QUOTE" keywords in headlines are deprecated
  885. "QUOTE" keywords are an undocumented feature in Org. When a headline
  886. starts with the keyword "QUOTE", its contents are parsed as
  887. a ~quote-section~ and treated as an example block. You can achieve
  888. the same with example blocks.
  889. This feature is deprecated and will be removed in the next Org
  890. release.
  891. * Version 8.0.1
  892. ** Installation
  893. Installation instructions have been updated and simplified.
  894. If you have troubles installing or updating Org, focus on these
  895. instructions:
  896. - when updating via a =.zip/.tar.gz= file, you only need to set the
  897. =load-path= in your =.emacs=. Set it before any other Org
  898. customization that would call autoloaded Org functions.
  899. - when updating by pulling Org's Git repository, make sure to create the
  900. correct autoloads. You can do this by running =~$ make autoloads= (to
  901. only create the autoloads) or by running =~$ make= (to also compile
  902. the Emacs lisp files.) =~$ make help= and =~$ make helpall= gives you
  903. detailed explanations.
  904. - when updating through ELPA (either from GNU ELPA or from Org ELPA),
  905. you have to install Org's ELPA package in a session where no Org
  906. function has been called already.
  907. When in doubt, run =M-x org-version RET= and see if you have a mixed-up
  908. installation.
  909. See http://orgmode.org/org.html#Installation for details.
  910. ** Incompatible changes
  911. Org 8.0 is the most disruptive major version of Org.
  912. If you configured export options, you will have to update some of them.
  913. If you used =#+ATTR_*= keywords, the syntax of the attributes changed and
  914. you will have to update them.
  915. Below is a list of changes for which you need to take action.
  916. See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html for the most recent version of
  917. this list and for detailed instructions on how to migrate.
  918. **** New export engine
  919. Org 8.0 comes with a new export engine written by Nicolas Goaziou. This
  920. export engine relies on ~org-element.el~ (Org's syntax parser), which was
  921. already in Org's core. This new export engine triggered the rewriting of
  922. /all/ export back-ends.
  923. The most visible change is the export dispatcher, accessible through the
  924. keybinding =C-c C-e=. By default, this menu only shows some of the
  925. built-in export formats, but you can add more formats by loading them
  926. directly (e.g., =(require 'ox-texinfo)= or by configuring the option
  927. [[doc:org-export-backends][org-export-backends]].
  928. More contributed back-ends are available from the =contrib/= directory, the
  929. corresponding files start with the =ox-= prefix.
  930. If you customized an export back-end (like HTML or LaTeX), you will need to
  931. rename some options so that your customization is not lost. Typically, an
  932. option starting with =org-export-html-= is now named =org-html-=. See the
  933. manual for details and check [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html][this Worg page]] for directions.
  934. **** New syntax for #+ATTR_HTML/LaTeX/... options
  935. : #+ATTR_HTML width="200px"
  936. should now be written
  937. : #+ATTR_HTML :width 200px
  938. Keywords like =#+ATTR_HTML= and =#+ATTR_LaTeX= are defined in their
  939. respective back-ends, and the list of supported parameters depends on
  940. each backend. See Org's manual for details.
  941. **** ~org-remember.el~ has been removed
  942. You cannot use =remember.el= anymore to capture notes.
  943. Support for remember templates has been obsoleted since long, it is
  944. now fully removed.
  945. Use =M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET= to import your
  946. remember templates into capture templates.
  947. **** ~org-jsinfo.el~ has been merged into ~ox-html.el~
  948. If you were requiring ~ox-jsinfo.el~ in your ~.emacs.el~ file, you
  949. will have to remove this requirement from your initialization file.
  950. **** Note for third-party developers
  951. The name of the files for export back-end have changed: we now use the
  952. prefix =ox-= for those files (like we use the =ob-= prefix for Babel
  953. files.) For example ~org-html.el~ is now ~ox-html.el~.
  954. If your code relies on these files, please update the names in your
  955. code.
  956. **** Packages moved from core to contrib
  957. Since packages in Org's core are meant to be part of GNU Emacs, we try
  958. to be minimalist when it comes to adding files into core. For 8.0, we
  959. moved some contributions into the =contrib/= directory.
  960. The rationale for deciding that these files should live in =contrib/=
  961. is either because they rely on third-party software that is not
  962. included in Emacs, or because they are not targeting a significant
  963. user-base.
  964. - org-colview-xemacs.el
  965. - org-mac-message.el
  966. - org-mew.el
  967. - org-wl.el
  968. - ox-freedmind.el
  969. - ox-taskjuggler.el
  970. Note that ~ox-freedmind.el~ has been rewritten by Jambunathan,
  971. ~org-mew.el~ has been enhanced by Tokuya Kameshima and
  972. ~ox-taskjuggler.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and others.
  973. Also, the Taskjuggler exporter now uses TJ3 by default. John Hendy
  974. wrote [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html][a tutorial on Worg]] for the TJ3 export.
  975. ** New packages in core
  976. *** ~ob-makefile.el~ by Eric Schulte and Thomas S. Dye
  977. =ob-makefile.el= implements Org Babel support for Makefile tangling.
  978. *** ~ox-man.el~ by Luis Anaya
  979. =ox-man.el= allows you to export Org files to =man= pages.
  980. *** ~ox-md.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou
  981. =ox-md.el= allows you to export Org files to Markdown files, using the
  982. vanilla [[http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/][Markdown syntax]].
  983. *** ~ox-texinfo.el~ by Jonathan Leech-Pepin
  984. =ox-texinfo.el= allows you to export Org files to [[http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/][Texinfo]] files.
  985. ** New packages in contrib
  986. *** ~ob-julia.el~ by G. Jay Kerns
  987. [[http://julialang.org/][Julia]] is a new programming language.
  988. =ob-julia.el= provides Org Babel support for evaluating Julia source
  989. code.
  990. *** ~ob-mathomatic.el~ by Luis Anaya
  991. [[http://www.mathomatic.org/][mathomatic]] a portable, command-line, educational CAS and calculator
  992. software, written entirely in the C programming language.
  993. ~ob-mathomatic.el~ provides Org Babel support for evaluating mathomatic
  994. entries.
  995. *** ~ob-tcl.el~ by Luis Anaya
  996. ~ob-tcl.el~ provides Org Babel support for evaluating [[http://www.tcl.tk/][Tcl]] source code.
  997. *** ~org-bullets.el~ by Evgeni Sabof
  998. Display bullets instead of stars for headlines.
  999. Also see [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#sec-8-12][this updated FAQ]] on how to display another character than "*"
  1000. for starting headlines.
  1001. *** ~org-favtable.el~ by Marc-Oliver Ihm
  1002. ~org-favtable.el~ helps you to create and update a table of favorite
  1003. locations in org, keeping the most frequently visited lines right at
  1004. the top. This table is called "favtable". See the documentation on
  1005. [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-favtable.html][Worg]].
  1006. *** ~ox-confluence.el~ by Sébastien Delafond
  1007. ~ox-confluence.el~ lets you convert Org files to [[https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Confluence%2BWiki%2BMarkup][Confluence Wiki]] files.
  1008. *** ~ox-deck.el~ and ~ox-s5.el~ by Rick Frankel
  1009. [[http://imakewebthings.com/deck.js/][deck.js]] is a javascript library for displaying HTML ages as
  1010. presentations. ~ox-deck.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations
  1011. using =deck.js=.
  1012. [[http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/][s5]] is a set of scripts which also allows to display HTML pages as
  1013. presentations. ~ox-s5.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations
  1014. using =s5=.
  1015. *** ~ox-groff.el~ by Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou
  1016. The [[http://www.gnu.org/software/groff/][groff]] (GNU troff) software is a typesetting package which reads
  1017. plain text mixed with formatting commands and produces formatted
  1018. output.
  1019. Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou implemented ~ox-groff.el~ to allow
  1020. conversion from Org files to groff.
  1021. *** ~ox-koma-letter.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and Alan Schmitt
  1022. This back-end allow to export Org pages to the =KOMA Scrlttr2= format.
  1023. *** ~ox-rss.el~ by Bastien
  1024. This back-end lets you export Org pages to RSS 2.0 feeds. Combined
  1025. with the HTML publishing feature, this allows you to build a blog
  1026. entirely with Org.
  1027. ** New features
  1028. *** Export
  1029. **** New export generic options
  1030. If you use Org exporter, we advise you to re-read [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Exporting][the manual section about
  1031. it]]. It has been updated and includes new options.
  1032. Among the new/updated export options, three are of particular importance:
  1033. - [[doc:org-export-allow-bind-keywords][org-export-allow-bind-keywords]] :: This option replaces the old option
  1034. =org-export-allow-BIND= and the default value is =nil=, not =confirm=.
  1035. You will need to explicitly set this to =t= in your initialization
  1036. file if you want to allow =#+BIND= keywords.
  1037. - [[doc:org-export-with-planning][org-export-with-planning]] :: This new option controls the export of
  1038. =SCHEDULED:, DEADLINE:, CLOSED:= lines, and planning information is
  1039. now skipped by default during export. This use to be the job of
  1040. [[doc:org-export-with-timestamps][org-export-with-timestamps]], but this latter option has been given a
  1041. new role: it controls the export of /standalone time-stamps/. When
  1042. set to =nil=, Org will not export active and inactive time-stamps
  1043. standing on a line by themselves or within a paragraph that only
  1044. contains time-stamps.
  1045. To check if an option has been introduced or its default value changed in
  1046. Org 8.0, do =C-h v [option] RET= and check if the documentation says that
  1047. the variable has been introduced (or changed) in version 24.4 of Emacs.
  1048. **** Enhanced default stylesheet for the HTML exporter
  1049. See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-style-default][org-html-style-default]].
  1050. **** New tags, classes and ids for the HTML exporter
  1051. See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-divs][org-html-divs]].
  1052. **** Support for tikz pictures in LaTeX export
  1053. **** ~org-man.el~: New export function for "man" links
  1054. **** ~org-docview.el~: New export function for docview links
  1055. *** Structure editing
  1056. **** =C-u C-u M-RET= inserts a heading at the end of the parent subtree
  1057. **** Cycling to the =CONTENTS= view keeps inline tasks folded
  1058. [[doc:org-cycle-hook][org-cycle-hook]] as a new function [[doc:org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks][org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks]] which
  1059. prevents the display of inline tasks when showing the content of a subtree.
  1060. **** =C-c -= in a region makes a list item for each line
  1061. This is the opposite of the previous behavior, where =C-c -= on a region
  1062. would create one item for the whole region, and where =C-u C-c -= would
  1063. create an item for each line. Now =C-c -= on the selected region creates
  1064. an item per line, and =C-u C-c -= creates a single item for the whole
  1065. region.
  1066. **** When transposing words, markup characters are now part of the words
  1067. In Emacs, you can transpose words with =M-t=. Transposing =*these*
  1068. _words__= will preserve markup.
  1069. **** New command [[doc:org-set-property-and-value][org-set-property-and-value]] bound to =C-c C-x P=
  1070. This command allows you to quickly add both the property and its value. It
  1071. is useful in buffers where there are many properties and where =C-c C-x p=
  1072. can slow down the flow of editing too much.
  1073. **** New commands [[doc:org-next-block][org-next-block]] and [[doc:org-previous-block][org-previous-block]]
  1074. These commands allow you to go to the previous block (=C-c M-b= or the
  1075. speedy key =B=) or to the next block (=C-c M-f= or the speedy key =F=.)
  1076. **** New commands [[doc:org-drag-line-forward][org-drag-line-forward]] and [[doc:org-drag-line-backward][org-drag-line-backward]]
  1077. These commands emulate the old behavior of =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= but are
  1078. now bound to =S-M-<down>= and =S-M-<up>= respectively, since =M-<down>= and
  1079. =M-<up>= now drag the whole element at point (a paragraph, a table, etc.)
  1080. forward and backward.
  1081. **** When a list item has a checkbox, inserting a new item uses a checkbox too
  1082. **** When sorting entries/items, only the description of links is considered
  1083. Now Org will sort this list
  1084. : - [[http://abc.org][B]]
  1085. : - [[http://def.org][A]]
  1086. like this:
  1087. : - [[http://def.org][A]]
  1088. : - [[http://abc.org][B]]
  1089. by comparing the descriptions, not the links.
  1090. Same when sorting headlines instead of list items.
  1091. **** New option =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp=
  1092. For example, setting this option to "^;;; " in Emacs lisp files and using
  1093. =orgstruct-mode= in those files will allow you to cycle through visibility
  1094. states as if lines starting with ";;; *..." where headlines.
  1095. In general, you want to set =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= as a file
  1096. local variable.
  1097. **** New behavior of [[doc:org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift][org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift]]
  1098. The default is now to ask for a time-shift only when there is a time-stamp.
  1099. When called with a universal prefix argument =C-u=, it will not ask for a
  1100. time-shift even if there is a time-stamp.
  1101. **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree][org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree]]
  1102. This defaults to =t= so that the whole subtree is highlighted when you
  1103. restrict the agenda view to it with =C-c C-x <= (or the speed command =<=).
  1104. The default setting helps ensuring that you are not adding tasks after the
  1105. restricted region. If you find this highlighting too intrusive, set this
  1106. option to =nil=.
  1107. **** New option [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]]
  1108. When switching back from a =DONE= keyword to a =TODO= keyword, Org now
  1109. removes the =CLOSED= planning information, if any. It also removes this
  1110. information when going back to a non-TODO state (e.g., with =C-c C-t SPC=).
  1111. If you want to keep the =CLOSED= planning information when removing the
  1112. TODO keyword, set [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] to =t=.
  1113. **** New option [[doc:org-image-actual-width][org-image-actual-width]]
  1114. This option allows you to change the width of in-buffer displayed images.
  1115. The default is to use the actual width of the image, but you can use a
  1116. fixed value for all images, or fall back on an attribute like
  1117. : #+attr_html: :width 300px
  1118. *** Scheduled/deadline
  1119. **** Implement "delay" cookies for scheduled items
  1120. If you want to delay the display of a scheduled task in the agenda, you can
  1121. now use a delay cookie like this: =SCHEDULED: <2004-12-25 Sat -2d>=. The
  1122. task is still scheduled on the 25th but will appear in your agenda starting
  1123. from two days later (i.e. from March 27th.)
  1124. Imagine for example that your co-workers are not done in due time and tell
  1125. you "we need two more days". In that case, you may want to delay the
  1126. display of the task in your agenda by two days, but you still want the task
  1127. to appear as scheduled on March 25th.
  1128. In case the task contains a repeater, the delay is considered to affect all
  1129. occurrences; if you want the delay to only affect the first scheduled
  1130. occurrence of the task, use =--2d= instead. See [[doc:org-scheduled-delay-days][org-scheduled-delay-days]]
  1131. and [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline]] for details on how to
  1132. control this globally or per agenda.
  1133. **** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-s= will insert a delay cookie for scheduled tasks
  1134. See the previous section for why delay cookies may be useful.
  1135. **** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-d= will insert a warning delay for deadline tasks
  1136. =C-u C-u C-c C-d= now inserts a warning delay to deadlines.
  1137. *** Calendar, diary and appts
  1138. **** New variable [[doc:org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map][org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map]]
  1139. By default, this new local map uses "." to go to today's date, like in the
  1140. normal =M-x calendar RET=. If you want to deactivate this and to reassign
  1141. the "@" key to =calendar-goto-today=, use this:
  1142. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  1143. ;; Unbind "." in Org's calendar:
  1144. (define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map (kbd ".") nil)
  1145. ;; Bind "@" to `calendar-goto-today':
  1146. (define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map
  1147. (kbd "@")
  1148. (lambda () (interactive) (org-eval-in-calendar '(calendar-goto-today))))
  1149. #+END_SRC
  1150. **** In Org's calendar, =!= displays diary entries of the date at point
  1151. This is useful when you want to check if you don't already have an
  1152. appointment when setting new ones with =C-c .= or =C-c s=. =!= will
  1153. call =diary-view-entries= and display the diary in a separate buffer.
  1154. **** [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]]: only keep the descriptions of links
  1155. [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]] returns diary information from Org files, but it returns it
  1156. in a diary buffer, not in an Org mode buffer. When links are displayed,
  1157. only show their description, not the full links.
  1158. *** Agenda
  1159. **** New agenda type =agenda*= and entry types =:scheduled* :deadline*=
  1160. When defining agenda custom commands, you can now use =agenda*=: this will
  1161. list entries that have both a date and a time. This is useful when you
  1162. want to build a list of appointments.
  1163. You can also set [[doc:org-agenda-entry-types][org-agenda-entry-types]] either globally or locally in
  1164. each agenda custom command and use =:timestamp*= and/or =:deadline*= there.
  1165. Another place where this is useful is your =.diary= file:
  1166. : %%(org-diary :scheduled*) ~/org/rdv.org
  1167. This will list only entries from =~/org/rdv.org= that are scheduled with a
  1168. time value (i.e. appointments).
  1169. **** New agenda sorting strategies
  1170. [[doc:org-agenda-sorting-strategy][org-agenda-sorting-strategy]] allows these new sorting strategies:
  1171. | Strategy | Explanations |

  1183. **** New options to limit the number of agenda entries
  1184. You can now limit the number of entries in an agenda view. This is
  1185. different from filters: filters only /hide/ the entries in the agenda,
  1186. while limits are set while generating the list of agenda entries.
  1187. These new options are available:
  1188. - [[doc:org-agenda-max-entries][org-agenda-max-entries]] :: limit by number of entries.
  1189. - [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] :: limit by number of TODOs.
  1190. - [[doc:org-agenda-max-tags][org-agenda-max-tags]] :: limit by number of tagged entries.
  1191. - [[doc:org-agenda-max-effort][org-agenda-max-effort]] :: limit by effort (minutes).
  1192. For example, if you locally set [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] to 3 in an agenda
  1193. view, the agenda will be limited to the first three todos. Other entries
  1194. without a TODO keyword or beyond the third TODO headline will be ignored.
  1195. When setting a limit (e.g. about an effort's sum), the default behavior is
  1196. to exclude entries that cannot be checked against (e.g. entries that have
  1197. no effort property.) To include other entries too, you can set the limit
  1198. to a negative number. For example =(setq org-agenda-max-tags -3)= will not
  1199. show the fourth tagged headline (and beyond), but it will also show
  1200. non-tagged headlines.
  1201. **** =~= in agenda view sets temporary limits
  1202. You can hit =~= in the agenda to temporarily set limits: this will
  1203. regenerate the agenda as if the limits were set. This is useful for
  1204. example when you want to only see a list of =N= tasks, or a list of tasks
  1205. that take only =N= minutes.
  1206. **** "=" in agenda view filters by regular expressions
  1207. You can now filter agenda entries by regular expressions using ~=~. =C-u
  1208. == will filter entries out. Regexp filters are cumulative. You can set
  1209. [[doc:org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset][org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset]] to suit your needs in each agenda view.
  1210. **** =|= in agenda view resets all filters
  1211. Since it's common to combine tag filters, category filters, and now regexp
  1212. filters, there is a new command =|= to reset all filters at once.
  1213. **** Allow writing an agenda to an =.org= file
  1214. You can now write an agenda view to an =.org= file. It copies the
  1215. headlines and their content (but not subheadings) into the new file.
  1216. This is useful when you want to quickly share an agenda containing the full
  1217. list of notes.
  1218. **** New commands to drag an agenda line forward (=M-<down>=) or backward (=M-<up>=)
  1219. It sometimes handy to move agenda lines around, just to quickly reorganize
  1220. your tasks, or maybe before saving the agenda to a file. Now you can use
  1221. =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= to move the line forward or backward.
  1222. This does not persist after a refresh of the agenda, and this does not
  1223. change the =.org= files who contribute to the agenda.
  1224. **** Use =%b= for displaying "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view
  1225. [[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] now allows to use a =%b= formatter to tell Org
  1226. to display "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view.
  1227. This is useful when you want to display the task hierarchy in your agenda.
  1228. **** Use =%l= for displaying the headline's level in the agenda view
  1229. [[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] allows to use a =%l= formatter to tell Org to
  1230. display entries with additional spaces corresponding to their level in the
  1231. outline tree.
  1232. **** [[doc:org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] will ask before overwriting an existing file
  1233. =M-x org-agenda-write RET= (or =C-c C-w= from an agenda buffer) used to
  1234. overwrite preexisting file with the same name without confirmation. It now
  1235. asks for a confirmation.
  1236. **** New commands =M-m= and =M-*= to toggle (all) mark(s) for bulk action
  1237. - [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle][org-agenda-bulk-toggle]] :: this command is bound to =M-m= and toggles
  1238. the mark of the entry at point.
  1239. - [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all][org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all]] :: this command is bound to =M-*= and
  1240. toggles all the marks in the current agenda.
  1241. **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level][org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level]]
  1242. This option sets the maximum outline level to display in search view.
  1243. E.g. when this is set to 1, the search view will only show headlines of
  1244. level 1.
  1245. **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds][org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds]]
  1246. This allows to compare times using seconds instead of days when honoring
  1247. options like =org-agenda-todo-ignore-*= in the agenda display.
  1248. **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-entry-text-leaders][org-agenda-entry-text-leaders]]
  1249. This allows you to get rid of the ">" character that gets added in front of
  1250. entries excerpts when hitting =E= in the agenda view.
  1251. **** New formatting string for past deadlines in [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]
  1252. The default formatting for past deadlines is ="%2d d. ago: "=, which makes
  1253. it explicit that the deadline is in the past. You can configure this via
  1254. [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]. Note that the width of the formatting
  1255. string is important to keep the agenda alignment clean.
  1256. **** New allowed value =repeated-after-deadline= for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]]
  1257. When [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] is set to
  1258. =repeated-after-deadline=, the agenda will skip scheduled items if they are
  1259. repeated beyond the current deadline.
  1260. **** New option for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled][org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled]]
  1261. This variable may be set to nil, t, the symbol `pre-scheduled', or a number
  1262. which will then give the number of days before the actual deadline when the
  1263. prewarnings should resume. The symbol `pre-scheduled' eliminates the
  1264. deadline prewarning only prior to the scheduled date.
  1265. Read the full docstring for details.
  1266. **** [[doc:org-class][org-class]] now supports holiday strings in the skip-weeks parameter
  1267. For example, this task will now be skipped only on new year's day:
  1268. : * Task
  1269. : <%%(org-class 2012 1 1 2013 12 12 2 "New Year's Day")>
  1270. *** Capture
  1271. **** Allow =C-1= as a prefix for [[doc:org-agenda-capture][org-agenda-capture]] and [[doc:org-capture][org-capture]]
  1272. With a =C-1= prefix, the capture mechanism will use the =HH:MM= value at
  1273. point (if any) or the current =HH:MM= time as the default time for the
  1274. capture template.
  1275. **** Expand keywords within %(sexp) placeholder in capture templates
  1276. If you use a =%:keyword= construct within a =%(sexp)= construct, Org will
  1277. expand the keywords before expanding the =%(sexp)=.
  1278. **** Allow to contextualize capture (and agenda) commands by checking the name of the buffer
  1279. [[doc:org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] and [[doc:org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]]
  1280. allow you to define what capture templates and what agenda commands should
  1281. be available in various contexts. It is now possible for the context to
  1282. check against the name of the buffer.
  1283. *** Tag groups
  1284. Using =#+TAGS: { Tag1 : Tag2 Tag3 }= will define =Tag1= as a /group tag/
  1285. (note the colon after =Tag1=). If you search for =Tag1=, it will return
  1286. headlines containing either =Tag1=, =Tag2= or =Tag3= (or any combination
  1287. of those tags.)
  1288. You can use group tags for sparse tree in an Org buffer, for creating
  1289. agenda views, and for filtering.
  1290. See http://orgmode.org/org.html#Tag-groups for details.
  1291. *** Links
  1292. **** =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= will ignore non-core link functions
  1293. Org knows how to store links from Org buffers, from info files and from
  1294. other Emacs buffers. Org can be taught how to store links from any buffer
  1295. through new link protocols (see [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Adding-hyperlink-types]["Adding hyperlink types"]] in the manual.)
  1296. Sometimes you want Org to ignore added link protocols and store the link
  1297. as if the protocol was not known.
  1298. You can now do this with =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET=.
  1299. **** =C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= on an active region will store links for each lines
  1300. Imagine for example that you want to store a link for every message in a
  1301. Gnus summary buffer. In that case =C-x h C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link
  1302. RET= will store a link for every line (i.e. message) if the region is
  1303. active.
  1304. **** =C-c C-M-l= will add a default description for links which don't have one
  1305. =C-c C-M-l= inserts all stored links. If a link does not have a
  1306. description, this command now adds a default one, so that we are not mixing
  1307. with-description and without-description links when inserting them.
  1308. **** No curly braces to bracket links within internal links
  1309. When storing a link to a headline like
  1310. : * See [[http://orgmode.org][Org website]]
  1311. [[doc:org-store-link][org-store-link]] used to convert the square brackets into curly brackets.
  1312. It does not anymore, taking the link description or the link path, when
  1313. there is no description.
  1314. *** Table
  1315. **** Switching between #+TBLFM lines
  1316. If you have several =#+TBLFM= lines below a table, =C-c C-c= on a line will
  1317. apply the formulas from this line, and =C-c C-c= on another line will apply
  1318. those other formulas.
  1319. **** You now use "nan" for empty fields in Calc formulas
  1320. If empty fields are of interest, it is recommended to reread the section
  1321. [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc][3.5.2 Formula syntax for Calc]] of the manual because the description for the
  1322. mode strings has been clarified and new examples have been added towards
  1323. the end.
  1324. **** Handle localized time-stamps in formulas evaluation
  1325. If your =LOCALE= is set so that Org time-stamps use another language than
  1326. english, and if you make time computations in Org's table, it now works by
  1327. internally converting the time-stamps with a temporary =LOCALE=C= before
  1328. doing computation.
  1329. **** New lookup functions
  1330. There are now three lookup functions:
  1331. - [[doc:org-loopup-first][org-loopup-first]]
  1332. - [[doc:org-loopup-last][org-loopup-last]]
  1333. - [[doc:org-loopup-all][org-loopup-all]]
  1334. See [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Lookup-functions][the manual]] for details.
  1335. *** Startup keywords
  1336. These new startup keywords are now available:
  1337. | Startup keyword | Option |
  1338. |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
  1339. | =#+STARTUP: logdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer t)= |
  1340. | =#+STARTUP: nologdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer nil)= |
  1341. |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
  1342. | =#+STARTUP: logstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed t)= |
  1343. | =#+STARTUP: nologstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed nil)= |
  1344. |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
  1345. | =#+STARTUP: latexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview t)= |
  1346. | =#+STARTUP: nolatexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview nil)= |
  1347. *** Clocking
  1348. **** New option [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]]
  1349. E.g. if [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] is set to 5, time is 14:47 and you
  1350. clock in: then the clock starts at 14:45. If you clock out within the next
  1351. 5 minutes, the clock line will be removed; if you clock out 8 minutes after
  1352. your clocked in, the clock out time will be 14:50.
  1353. **** New option [[doc:org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations][org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations]]
  1354. When non-nil, =C-c C-x C-d= uses effort durations. E.g., by default, one
  1355. day is considered to be a 8 hours effort, so a task that has been clocked
  1356. for 16 hours will be displayed as during 2 days in the clock display or in
  1357. the clocktable.
  1358. See [[doc:org-effort-durations][org-effort-durations]] on how to set effort durations and
  1359. [[doc:org-time-clocksum-format][org-time-clocksum-format]] for more on time clock formats.
  1360. **** New option [[doc:org-clock-x11idle-program-name][org-clock-x11idle-program-name]]
  1361. This allows to set the name of the program which prints X11 idle time in
  1362. milliseconds. The default is to use =x11idle=.
  1363. **** New option [[doc:org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time][org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time]]
  1364. When non-nil, use the last clock out time for [[doc:org-todo][org-todo]]. Note that this
  1365. option has precedence over the combined use of [[doc:org-use-effective-time][org-use-effective-time]] and
  1366. [[doc:org-extend-today-until][org-extend-today-until]].
  1367. **** =S-<left/right>= on a clocksum column will update the sum by updating the last clock
  1368. **** =C-u 3 C-S-<up/down>= will update clock timestamps synchronously by 3 units
  1369. **** New parameter =:wstart= for clocktables to define the week start day
  1370. **** New parameter =:mstart= to state the starting day of the month
  1371. **** Allow relative times in clocktable tstart and tend options
  1372. **** The clocktable summary is now a caption
  1373. **** =:tstart= and =:tend= and friends allow relative times like "<-1w>" or "<now>"
  1374. *** Babel
  1375. **** You can now use =C-c C-k= for [[doc:org-edit-src-abort][org-edit-src-abort]]
  1376. This allows you to quickly cancel editing a source block.
  1377. **** =C-u C-u M-x org-babel-tangle RET= tangles by the target file of the block at point
  1378. This is handy if you want to tangle all source code blocks that have the
  1379. same target than the block at point.
  1380. **** New options for auto-saving the base buffer or the source block editing buffer
  1381. When [[doc:org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save][org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save]] is set to =t=, editing a source block
  1382. in a new window will turn on =auto-save-mode= and save the code in a new
  1383. file under the same directory than the base Org file.
  1384. When [[doc:org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay][org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay]] is set to a number of minutes =N=,
  1385. the base Org buffer will be saved after this number of minutes of idle
  1386. time.
  1387. **** New =:post= header argument post-processes results
  1388. This header argument may be used to pass the results of the current
  1389. code block through another code block for post-processing. See the
  1390. manual for a usage example.
  1391. **** Commented out heading are ignored when collecting blocks for tangling
  1392. If you comment out a heading (with =C-c ;= anywhere on the heading or in
  1393. the subtree), code blocks from within this heading are now ignored when
  1394. collecting blocks for tangling.
  1395. **** New option [[doc:org-babel-hash-show-time][org-babel-hash-show-time]] to show a time-stamp in the result hash
  1396. **** Do not ask for confirmation if cached value is current
  1397. Do not run [[doc:org-babel-confirm-evaluate][org-babel-confirm-evaluate]] if source block has a cache and the
  1398. cache value is current as there is no evaluation involved in this case.
  1399. **** =ob-sql.el= and =ob-python.el= have been improved.
  1400. **** New Babel files only need to =(require 'ob)=
  1401. When writing a new Babel file, you now only need to use =(require 'ob)=
  1402. instead of requiring each Babel library one by one.
  1403. *** Faces
  1404. - Org now fontifies radio link targets by default
  1405. - In the agenda, use [[doc:org-todo-keyword-faces][org-todo-keyword-faces]] to highlight selected TODO keywords
  1406. - New face [[doc:org-priority][org-priority]], enhanced fontification of priority cookies in agenda
  1407. - New face [[doc:org-tag-group][org-tag-group]] for group tags
  1408. ** Miscellaneous
  1409. - New speedy key =s= pour [[doc:org-narrow-to-subtree][org-narrow-to-subtree]]
  1410. - Handling of [[doc:org-html-table-row][org-html-table-row]] has been updated (incompatible change)
  1411. - [[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]]
  1412. - Support using =git-annex= with Org attachments
  1413. - org-protocol: Pass optional value using query in url to capture from protocol
  1414. - When the refile history is empty, use the current filename as default
  1415. - When you cannot change the TODO state of a task, Org displays the blocking task
  1416. - New option [[doc:org-mobile-allpriorities][org-mobile-allpriorities]]
  1417. - org-bibtex.el now use =visual-line-mode= instead of the deprecated =longlines-mode=
  1418. - [[doc:org-format-latex-options][org-format-latex-options]] allows to set the foreground/background colors automatically
  1419. - New option [[doc:org-archive-file-header-format][org-archive-file-header-format]]
  1420. - New "neg" entity in [[doc:org-entities][org-entities]]
  1421. - New function [[doc:org-docview-export][org-docview-export]] to export docview links
  1422. - New =:eps= header argument for ditaa code blocks
  1423. - New option [[doc:org-gnus-no-server][org-gnus-no-server]] to start Gnus with =gnus-no-server=
  1424. - Org is now distributed with =htmlize.el= version 1.43
  1425. - ~org-drill.el~ has been updated to version 2.3.7
  1426. - ~org-mac-iCal.el~ now supports MacOSX version up to 10.8
  1427. - Various improvements to ~org-contacts.el~ and =orgpan.el=
  1428. ** Outside Org
  1429. *** Spanish translation of the Org guide by David Arroyo Menéndez
  1430. David (and others) translated the Org compact guide in spanish:
  1431. You can read the [[http://orgmode.org/worg/orgguide/orgguide.es.pdf][PDF guide]].
  1432. *** ~poporg.el~ and ~outorg.el~
  1433. Two new libraries (~poporg.el~ by François Pinard and ~outorg.el~ by
  1434. Thorsten Jolitz) now enable editing of comment-sections from source-code
  1435. buffers in temporary Org-mode buffers, making the full editing power of
  1436. Org-mode available. ~outorg.el~ comes together with ~outshine.el~ and
  1437. ~navi-mode.el~, two more libraries by Thorsten Jolitz with the goal to give
  1438. source-code buffers the /look & feel/ of Org-mode buffers while greatly
  1439. improving navigation and structure editing. A detailed description can be
  1440. found here: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html
  1441. Here are two screencasts demonstrating Thorsten's tools:
  1442. - [[http://youtu.be/nqE6YxlY0rw]["Modern conventions for Emacs Lisp files"]]
  1443. - [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v%3DII-xYw5VGFM][Exploring Bernt Hansen's Org-mode tutorial with 'navi-mode']]
  1444. *** MobileOrg for iOS
  1445. MobileOrg for iOS back in the App Store The 1.6.0 release was focused on
  1446. the new Dropbox API and minor bug fixes but also includes a new ability to
  1447. launch in Capture mode. Track development and contribute [[https://github.com/MobileOrg/mobileorg/issues][on github]].
  1448. * Version 7.9.3
  1449. ** New option [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]]
  1450. [[doc::org-use-tag-inheritance][org-use-tag-inheritance]] controls whether tags are inherited when
  1451. org-tags-view is called (either in =tags=, =tags-tree= or =tags-todo=
  1452. agenda views.)
  1453. When generating other agenda types such as =agenda=, =todo= and
  1454. =todo-tree=, tags inheritance is not used when selecting the entries
  1455. to display. Still, you might want to have all tag information correct
  1456. in the agenda buffer, e.g. for tag filtering. In that case, add the
  1457. agenda type to this variable.
  1458. Setting this variable to nil should considerably speeds up the agenda
  1459. generation.
  1460. Note that the default was to display inherited tags in the agenda
  1461. lines even if `org-use-tag-inheritance' was nil. The default is now
  1462. to *never* display inherited tags in agenda lines, but to /know/ about
  1463. them when the agenda type is listed in [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]].
  1464. ** New default value nil for [[doc::org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks][org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks]]
  1465. Using `nil' as the default value speeds up the agenda generation. You
  1466. can hit `#' (or `C-u #') in agenda buffers to temporarily dim (or turn
  1467. invisible) blocked tasks.
  1468. ** New speedy keys for [[doc::org-speed-commands-default][org-speed-commands-default]]
  1469. You can now use `:' (instead of `;') for setting tags---this is
  1470. consistent with using the `:' key in agenda view.
  1471. You can now use `=' for [[doc::org-columns][org-columns]].
  1472. ** =org-float= is now obsolete, use =diary-float= instead
  1473. ** No GPL manual anymore
  1474. There used to be a GPL version of the Org manual, but this is not the
  1475. case anymore, the Free Software Foundation does not permit this.
  1476. The GNU FDL license is now included in the manual directly.
  1477. ** Enhanced compatibility with Emacs 22 and XEmacs
  1478. Thanks to Achim for his work on enhancing Org's compatibility with
  1479. various Emacsen. Things may not be perfect, but Org should work okay
  1480. in most environments.
  1481. * Version 7.9.2
  1482. ** New ELPA repository for Org packages
  1483. You can now add the Org ELPA repository like this:
  1484. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  1485. (add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "http://orgmode.org/elpa/") t)
  1486. #+END_SRC
  1487. It contains both the =org-*.tar= package (the core Org distribution, also
  1488. available through http://elpa.gnu.org) and the =org-plus*.tar= package (the
  1489. extended Org distribution, with non-GNU packages from the =contrib/=
  1490. directory.)
  1491. See http://orgmode.org/elpa/

  1508. ** New package and Babel language
  1509. *** =org-eshell.el= by Konrad Hinsen is now in Org
  1510. =org-eshell.el= allows you to create links from [[http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eshell/index.html][Eshell]].
  1511. *** Support for execution of Scala code blocks (see ob-scala.el)
  1512. *** Support for execution of IO code blocks (see ob-io.el)
  1513. ** Incompatible changes
  1514. - If your code relies on =org-write-agenda=, please use
  1515. [[doc::org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] from now on.
  1516. - If your code relies on =org-make-link=, please use =concat=
  1517. instead.
  1518. - =org-link-to-org-use-id= has been renamed to
  1519. =org-id-link-to-org-use-id= and its default value is nil. The
  1520. previous default was =create-if-interactive-and-no-custom-id=.
  1521. ** New features and user-visible changes
  1522. *** Org Element
  1523. =org-element.el= is a toolbox for parsing and analyzing "elements"
  1524. in an Org-mode buffer. This has been written by Nicolas Goaziou
  1525. and has been tested for quite some time. It is now part of Org's
  1526. core and many core functions rely on this package.
  1527. Two functions might be particularly handy for users:
  1528. =org-element-at-point= and =org-element-context=.
  1529. See the docstrings for more details.
  1530. Below is a list of editing and navigating commands that now rely
  1531. on =org-element.el=.
  1532. **** [[doc::org-fill-paragraph][org-fill-paragraph]] has been completely rewritten
  1533. The filling mechanisms now rely on org-element, trying to do the
  1534. right thing on each element in various contexts. E.g. filling in
  1535. a list item will preserve indentation; filling in message-mode
  1536. will fall back on the relevant filling functions; etc.
  1537. **** [[doc::org-metaup][org-metaup]] and [[doc::org-metadown][org-metadown]] will drag the element backward/forward
  1538. If you want to get the old behavior (i.e. moving a line up and
  1539. down), you can first select the line as an active region, then
  1540. =org-metaup= or =org-metadown= to move the region backward or
  1541. forward. This also works with regions bigger than just one line.
  1542. **** [[doc::org-up-element][org-up-element]] and [[doc::org-down-element][org-down-element]] (respectively =C-c C-^= and =C-c C-_=)
  1543. This will move the point up/down in the hierarchy of elements.
  1544. **** [[doc::org-backward-element][org-backward-element]] and [[doc::org-forward-element][org-forward-element]] (respectively =M-{= and =M-}=)
  1545. This will move the point backward/forward in the hierarchy of
  1546. elements.
  1547. **** [[doc::org-narrow-to-element][org-narrow-to-element]] will narrow to the element at point
  1548. **** [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] will mark the element at point
  1549. This command is bound to =M-h= and will mark the element at
  1550. point. If the point is at a paragraph, it will mark the
  1551. paragraph. If the point is at a list item, it will mark the list
  1552. item. Etc.
  1553. Note that if point is at the beginning of a list, it will mark
  1554. the whole list.
  1555. To mark a subtree, you can either use =M-h= on the headline
  1556. (since there is no ambiguity about the element you're at) or
  1557. [[doc::org-mark-subtree][org-mark-subtree]] (=C-c @=) anywhere in the subtree.
  1558. Invoking [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] repeatedly will try to mark the next
  1559. element on top of the previous one(s). E.g. hitting =M-h= twice
  1560. on a headline will mark the current subtree and the next one on
  1561. the same level.
  1562. *** Org Agenda
  1563. **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]]
  1564. There is a new option =org-agenda-sticky= which enables "sticky"
  1565. agendas. Sticky agendas remain opened in the background so that
  1566. you don't need to regenerate them each time you hit the
  1567. corresponding keystroke. This is a big time saver.
  1568. When [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is =non-nil=, the agenda buffer will be
  1569. named using the agenda key and its description. In sticky
  1570. agendas, the =q= key will just bury the agenda buffers and
  1571. further agenda commands will show existing buffer instead of
  1572. generating new ones.
  1573. If [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is set to =nil=, =q= will kill the single
  1574. agenda buffer.
  1575. **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]]
  1576. Setting this option allows you to define specific context where
  1577. agenda commands should be available from. For example, when set
  1578. to this value
  1579. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  1580. (setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
  1581. '(("p" (in-file . "\\.txt"))))
  1582. #+END_SRC
  1583. then the =p= agenda command will only be available from buffers
  1584. visiting *.txt files. See the docstring and the manual for more
  1585. details on how to use this.
  1586. **** Changes in bulk actions
  1587. The set of commands starting with =k ...= as been deleted and the
  1588. features have been merged into the "bulk action" feature.
  1589. After you marked some entries in the agenda, if you call =B s=,
  1590. the agenda entries will be rescheduled using the date at point if
  1591. on a date header. If you are on an entry with a timestamp, you
  1592. will be prompted for a date to reschedule your marked entries to,
  1593. using the timestamp at point as the default prompt.
  1594. You can now use =k= to capture the marked entry and use the date
  1595. at point as an overriding date for the capture template.
  1596. To bind this behavior to =M-x org-capture RET= (or its
  1597. keybinding), set the new option [[doc::org-capture-use-agenda-date][org-capture-use-agenda-date]] to
  1598. =t=.
  1599. **** =N= and =P= in the agenda will move to the next/previous item
  1600. **** New command [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-all][org-agenda-bulk-mark-all]] to mark all items
  1601. This new command is bound to =*= in agenda mode.
  1602. There is also a new option [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-char][org-agenda-bulk-mark-char]] to set the
  1603. character to use as a mark for bulk actions.
  1604. **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-persistent-marks][org-agenda-persistent-marks]]
  1605. When set to =non-nil=, marks will remain visible after a bulk
  1606. action. You can temporarily toggle this by pressing =p= when
  1607. invoking [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-action][org-agenda-bulk-action]]. Marks are deleted if your
  1608. rebuild the agenda buffer or move to another date/span (e.g. with
  1609. =f= or =w=).
  1610. **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown]]
  1611. =Non-nil= means skip timestamp line if same entry shows because
  1612. of deadline.
  1613. In the agenda of today, an entry can show up multiple times
  1614. because it has both a plain timestamp and has a nearby deadline.
  1615. When this variable is t, then only the deadline is shown and the
  1616. fact that the entry has a timestamp for or including today is not
  1617. shown. When this variable is =nil=, the entry will be shown
  1618. several times.
  1619. **** New =todo-unblocked= and =nottodo-unblocked= skip conditions
  1620. See the [[http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=f426da][git commit]] for more explanations.
  1621. **** Allow category filtering in the agenda
  1622. You can now filter the agenda by category. Pressing "<" will
  1623. filter by the category of the item on the current line, and
  1624. pressing "<" again will remove the filter. You can combine tag
  1625. filters and category filters.
  1626. You can use =org-agenda-category-filter= in your custom agenda
  1627. views and =org-agenda-category-filter-preset= in your main
  1628. configuration.
  1629. See also the new command [[doc::org-agenda-filter-by-top-category][org-agenda-filter-by-top-category]]:
  1630. hitting =^= will filter by "Top" category: only show entries that
  1631. are of the same category than the Top category of the entry at
  1632. point.
  1633. *** Org Links
  1634. **** Inserting links
  1635. When inserting links through [[doc::org-insert-link][org-insert-link]], the description is
  1636. now displayed first, followed by the literal link, as the
  1637. description is often more useful when you look for the link you
  1638. want to insert.
  1639. Completion now complete both literal links and description. If
  1640. you complete a description, the literal link and its description
  1641. will be inserted directly, whereas when you complete the literal
  1642. link, you will be prompted for a description (as with Org 7.8.)
  1643. In the completion buffer, links to the current buffer are now
  1644. highlighted.
  1645. **** New templates =%h= and =%(sexp)= for abbreviated links
  1646. On top of =%s= template, which is replaced by the link tag in
  1647. abbreviated links, you can now use =%h= (which does the same than =%s=
  1648. but does not hexify the tag) and =%(sexp)= (which can run a function
  1649. that takes the tag as its own argument.)
  1650. **** New link type =help=
  1651. You can now create links from =help= buffers.
  1652. For example, if you request help for the command [[doc::org-agenda][org-agenda]] with
  1653. =C-h f org-agenda RET=, creating a link from this buffer will let
  1654. you go back to the same buffer.
  1655. **** New command [[doc::org-insert-all-links][org-insert-all-links]]
  1656. This will insert all links as list items. With a universal
  1657. prefix argument, links will not be deleted from the variable
  1658. =org-stored-links=.
  1659. This new command is bound to =C-c C-M-l=.
  1660. **** New option [[doc::org-url-hexify-p][org-url-hexify-p]]
  1661. When set to =nil=, the =URL= part of a link will not be hexified.
  1662. **** Org can now open multiple shell links
  1663. **** New option [[doc::org-doi-server-url][org-doi-server-url]] to specify an alternate DOI server
  1664. **** RET now follows time stamps links
  1665. *** Org Editing
  1666. **** [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] and =org-archive-*= can now loop in the active region
  1667. When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, using
  1668. [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] or =org-archive-*= commands in the active region will
  1669. loop over headlines. This is handy if you want to set the TODO
  1670. keyword for several items, or archive them quickly.
  1671. **** You can now set tags for headlines in a region
  1672. If [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, then
  1673. selecting the region and hitting =C-c C-q= will set the tags for
  1674. all headlines in the region.
  1675. **** New command [[doc::org-insert-drawer][org-insert-drawer]] to insert a drawer interactively
  1676. **** Comments start with "^[ \t]*# " anywhere on a line
  1677. Note that the space after the hashtag is mandatory. Comments
  1678. with "^#+" are not supported anymore.
  1679. **** New speed key =#= to toggle the COMMENT cookie on a headline
  1680. **** =indent-region-function= is now set to [[doc::org-indent-region][org-indent-region]]
  1681. =C-M-\= should now produce useful results.
  1682. You can unindent the buffer with [[doc::org-unindent-buffer][org-unindent-buffer]].
  1683. **** New option [[doc::org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree][org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree]]
  1684. When =non-nil=, =S-M-<left>= will promote level-1 subtrees
  1685. containing other subtrees. The level-1 headline will be
  1686. commented out. You can revert to the previous state with =M-x
  1687. undo RET=.
  1688. *** Org Clock
  1689. **** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-z= for [[doc::org-clock-resolve][org-clock-resolve]]
  1690. **** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-q= for [[doc::org-clock-cancel][org-clock-cancel]]
  1691. **** New command [[doc::org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] to clock in the last clocked item
  1692. This command is bound to =C-c C-x C-x= and will clock in the last
  1693. clocked entry, if any.
  1694. **** =C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-out][org-clock-out]] =RET= now prompts for a state to switch to
  1695. **** =S-M-<up/down>= on a clock timestamps adjusts the previous/next clock
  1696. **** New option [[doc::org-clock-continuously][org-clock-continuously]]
  1697. When set to =nil=, clocking in a task will first try to find the
  1698. last clocked out task and restart from when that task was clocked
  1699. out.
  1700. You can temporarily activate continuous clocking with =C-u C-u
  1701. C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-in][org-clock-in]] =RET= (three universal prefix arguments)
  1702. and =C-u C-u M-x= [[org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] =RET= (two universal prefix
  1703. arguments).
  1704. **** New option [[doc::org-clock-frame-title-format][org-clock-frame-title-format]]
  1705. This option sets the value of =frame-title-format= when clocking
  1706. in.
  1707. **** New options for controlling the clockreport display
  1708. [[doc::org-clock-file-time-cell-format][org-clock-file-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the file time
  1709. cells in clockreport.
  1710. [[doc::org-clock-total-time-cell-format][org-clock-total-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the total
  1711. time cells in clockreport.
  1712. **** New options for controlling the clock/timer display
  1713. [[doc::org-clock-clocked-in-display][org-clock-clocked-in-display]]: control whether the current clock
  1714. is displayed in the mode line and/or frame title.
  1715. [[doc::org-timer-display][org-timer-display]]: control whether the current timer is displayed
  1716. in the mode line and/or frame title.
  1717. This allows the clock and timer to be displayed in the frame
  1718. title instead of, or as well as, the mode line. This is useful
  1719. for people with limited space in the mode line but with ample
  1720. space in the frame title.
  1721. *** Org Appearance
  1722. **** New option [[doc::org-custom-properties][org-custom-properties]]
  1723. The visibility of properties listed in this options can be turn
  1724. on/off with [[doc::org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility][org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility]]. This might
  1725. be useful for properties used by third-part tools or that you
  1726. don't want to see temporarily.
  1727. **** New command [[doc::org-redisplay-inline-images][org-redisplay-inline-images]]
  1728. This will redisplay all images. It is bound to =C-c C-x C-M-v=.
  1729. **** New entities in =org-entities.el=
  1730. There are these new entities:
  1731. : ("tilde" "\\~{}" nil "&tilde;" "~" "~" "~")
  1732. : ("slash" "/" nil "/" "/" "/" "/")
  1733. : ("plus" "+" nil "+" "+" "+" "+")
  1734. : ("under" "\\_" nil "_" "_" "_" "_")
  1735. : ("equal" "=" nil "=" "=" "=" "=")
  1736. : ("asciicirc" "\\textasciicircum{}" nil "^" "^" "^" "^")
  1737. **** New face =org-list-dt= for definition terms
  1738. **** New face =org-date-selected= for the selected calendar day
  1739. **** New face value for =org-document-title=
  1740. The face is back to a normal height.
  1741. *** Org Columns
  1742. **** New speed command =:= to activate the column view
  1743. **** New special property =CLOCKSUM_T= to display today's clocked time
  1744. You can use =CLOCKSUM_T= the same way you use =CLOCKSUM=. It
  1745. will display the time spent on tasks for today only.
  1746. **** Use the =:COLUMNS:= property in columnview dynamic blocks
  1747. If the =:COLUMNS:= is set in a subtree, the columnview dynamic
  1748. block will use its value as the column format.
  1749. **** Consider inline tasks when computing a sum
  1750. *** Org Dates and Time Stamps
  1751. **** Enhanced [[doc::org-sparse-tree][org-sparse-tree]]
  1752. =C-c /= can now check for time ranges.
  1753. When checking for dates with =C-c /= it is useful to change the
  1754. type of dates that you are interested in. You can now do this
  1755. interactively with =c= after =C-c /= and/or by setting
  1756. [[doc::org-sparse-tree-default-date-type][org-sparse-tree-default-date-type]] to the default value you want.
  1757. **** Support for hourly repeat cookies
  1758. You can now use
  1759. : SCHEDULED: <2012-08-20 lun. 08:00 +1h>
  1760. if you want to add an hourly repeater to an entry.
  1761. **** =C-u C-u C-c .= inserts a time-stamp with no prompt
  1762. **** When (setq [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] 'time), accept days in the prompt
  1763. "8am Wed" and "Wed 8am" are now acceptable values when entering a
  1764. date from the prompt. If [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] is set to
  1765. =time=, this will produce the expected prompt indication.
  1766. **** New option [[doc::org-datetree-add-timestamp][org-datetree-add-timestamp]]
  1767. When set to =non-nil=, datetree entries will also have a
  1768. timestamp. This is useful if you want to see these entries in a
  1769. sparse tree with =C-c /=.
  1770. *** Org Capture
  1771. **** New command [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]]
  1772. M-x [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]] RET will prompt for a string and a capture
  1773. template. The string will be used as an annotation for the
  1774. template. This is useful when capturing in batch mode as it lets
  1775. you define the content of the template without being in Emacs.
  1776. **** New option [[doc::org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]]
  1777. Setting this option allows you to define specific context where
  1778. capture templates should be available from. For example, when
  1779. set to this value
  1780. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  1781. (setq org-capture-templates-contexts
  1782. '(("c" (in-mode . "message-mode"))))
  1783. #+END_SRC
  1784. then the =c= capture template will only be available from
  1785. =message-mode= buffers. See the docstring and the manual for
  1786. more details on how to use this.
  1787. **** New =%l= template to insert the literal link
  1788. **** New option [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]]
  1789. Org used to automatically add a bookmark with capture a note.
  1790. You can now turn this on by setting [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]] to
  1791. =nil=.
  1792. **** Expand =%<num>= escape sequences into text entered for <num>'th =%^{PROMPT}= escape
  1793. See the manual for more explanations.
  1794. **** More control over empty lines
  1795. You can use =:empty-lines-before= and =:empty-lines-after= to
  1796. control the insertion of empty lines. Check the manual for more
  1797. explanations.
  1798. **** New hook [[doc::org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook][org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook]]
  1799. This new hook runs before the finalization process starts.
  1800. *** Org Export
  1801. **** New functions =orgtbl-to-table.el= and =orgtbl-to-unicode=
  1802. =orgtbl-to-table.el= convert the table to a =table.el= table, and
  1803. =orgtbl-to-unicode= will use =ascii-art-to-unicode.el= (when
  1804. available) to print beautiful tables.
  1805. **** [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]] now a bit clever about the target format
  1806. When you specify a file name like =table.csv=, [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]]
  1807. will now suggest =orgtbl-to-csv= the default method for exporting
  1808. the table.
  1809. **** New option [[doc::org-export-date-timestamp-format][org-export-date-timestamp-format]]
  1810. The option allows to set a time string format for Org timestamps
  1811. in the #+DATE option.
  1812. **** LaTeX: New options for exporting table rules :tstart, :hline and :tend
  1813. See [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-hline][org-export-latex-tables-hline]] and [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-tend][org-export-latex-tables-tend]].
  1814. **** LaTeX: You can now set =:hfmt= from =#+ATTR_LaTeX=
  1815. **** Beamer: Add support and keybinding for the =exampleblock= environment
  1816. Add support for these languages in [[doc::org-export-language-setup][org-export-language-setup]].
  1817. More languages are always welcome.
  1818. **** Beamer: New option [[doc::org-beamer-inherited-properties][org-beamer-inherited-properties]]
  1819. This option allows Beamer export to inherit some properties.
  1820. Thanks to Carsten for implementing this.
  1821. **** ODT: Add support for ODT export in org-bbdb.el
  1822. **** ODT: Add support for indented tables (see [[http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=e9fd33][this commit]] for details)
  1823. **** ODT: Improve the conversion from ODT to other formats
  1824. **** ASCII: Swap the level-1/level-2 characters to underline the headlines
  1825. **** Support for Chinese, simplified Chinese, Russian, Ukrainian and Japanese
  1826. **** HTML: New option [[doc::org-export-html-date-format-string][org-export-html-date-format-string]]
  1827. Format string to format the date and time in HTML export. Thanks
  1828. to Sébastien Vauban for this patch.
  1829. *** Org Babel
  1830. **** New =:results drawer= parameter
  1831. =:results drawer= replaces =:results wrap=, which is deprecated but still
  1832. supported.
  1833. **** =:results org= now put results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block
  1834. =:results org= used to put results in a =#+BEGIN_ORG= block but it now puts
  1835. results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block, with comma-escaped lines.
  1836. =#+BEGIN_ORG= blocks are obsolete.
  1837. **** Exporting =#+BEGIN_SRC org= blocks exports the code
  1838. It used to exports the results of the code.
  1839. *** Miscellaneous
  1840. **** New menu entry for [[doc::org-refile][org-refile]]
  1841. **** Allow capturing to encrypted entries
  1842. If you capture to an encrypted entry, it will be decrypted before
  1843. inserting the template then re-encrypted after finalizing the capture.
  1844. **** Inactive timestamps are now handled in tables
  1845. Calc can do computation on active time-stamps like <2012-09-29 sat.>.
  1846. Inactive time-stamps in a table's cell are now internally deactivated so
  1847. that Calc formulas can operate on them.
  1848. **** [[doc::org-table-number-regexp][org-table-number-regexp]] can now accept comma as decimal mark
  1849. **** Org allows a new property =APPT_WARNTIME=
  1850. You can set it with the =W= speedy key or set it manually. When
  1851. set, exporting to iCalendar and [[doc::org-agenda-to-appt][org-agenda-to-appt]] will use the
  1852. value of this property as the number of minutes for the warning
  1853. alarm.
  1854. **** New command [[doc::org-inc-effort][org-inc-effort]]
  1855. This will increment the effort value.
  1856. It is bound to =C-c C-x E= and to =E= as a speedy command.
  1857. **** Attach: Add support for creating symbolic links
  1858. =org-attach-method= now supports a new method =lns=, allowing to
  1859. attach symbolic links.
  1860. **** Archive: you can now archive to a datetree
  1861. **** New option [[doc::org-inlinetask-show-first-star][org-inlinetask-show-first-star]]
  1862. =Non-nil= means display the first star of an inline task as
  1863. additional marker. When =nil=, the first star is not shown.
  1864. **** New option [[doc::org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory][org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory]]
  1865. This lets you define the path for the =ltxpng/= directory.
  1866. **** You can now use imagemagick instead of dvipng to preview LaTeX fragments
  1867. **** You can now turn off [[doc::orgstruct++-mode][orgstruct++-mode]] safely
  1868. **** =C-u C-c C-c= on list items to add check boxes
  1869. =C-u C-c C-c= will add an empty check box on a list item.
  1870. When hit from the top of the list, it will add check boxes for
  1871. all top level list items.
  1872. **** =org-list-ending-method= and =org-list-end-regexp= are now obsolete
  1873. Fall back on using =org-list-end-re= only, which see.
  1874. **** org-feed.el now expands =%(sexp)= templates
  1875. **** New option [[doc::org-protocol-data-separator][org-protocol-data-separator]]
  1876. **** New option [[doc::org-ditaa-jar-option][org-ditaa-jar-option]] to specify the ditaa jar file
  1877. **** New possible value for [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]]
  1878. When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is set to
  1879. =start-level=, the command will loop over the active region but
  1880. will only act upon entries that are of the same level than the
  1881. first headline in the region.
  1882. **** New option [[doc::org-habit-show-all-today][org-habit-show-all-today]]
  1883. When set to =t=, show all (even unscheduled) habits on today's
  1884. agenda.
  1885. ** Important bug fixes
  1886. *** M-TAB on options keywords perform completion correctly again
  1887. If you hit =M-TAB= on keywords like =#+TITLE=, Org will try to
  1888. perform completion with meaningful values.
  1889. *** Add licenses to javascript embedded and external code snippets
  1890. Embedded javascript code produced when exporting an Org file to
  1891. HTML is now licensed under GPLv3 (or later), and the copyright is
  1892. owned by the Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  1893. The javascript code for embedding MathJax in the browser mentions
  1894. the MathJax copyright and the Apache 2.0 license.
  1895. The javascript code for embedding =org-injo.js= in the browser
  1896. mentions the copyright of Sebastian Rose and the GPLv3 (or later)
  1897. license.
  1898. =org-export-html-scripts= is now a variable, so that you can adapt
  1899. the code and the license to your needs.
  1900. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html for
  1901. explanations on why these changes were necessary.
  1902. * Version 7.8.11
  1903. ** Incompatible changes
  1904. *** Emacs 21 support has been dropped
  1905. Do not use Org mode 7.xx with Emacs 21, use [[http://orgmode.org/org-6.36c.zip][version 6.36c]] instead.
  1906. *** XEmacs support requires the XEmacs development version
  1907. To use Org mode 7.xx with XEmacs, you need to run the developer
  1908. version of XEmacs. We were about to drop XEmacs support entirely,
  1909. but Michael Sperber stepped in and made changes to XEmacs that
  1910. made it easier to keep the support. Thanks to Michael for this
  1911. last-minute save.
  1912. *** New keys for TODO sparse trees
  1913. The key =C-c C-v= is now reserved for Org Babel action. TODO
  1914. sparse trees can still be made with =C-c / t= (all not-done
  1915. states) and =C-c / T= (specific states).
  1916. *** The Agenda =org-agenda-ndays= is now obsolete
  1917. The variable =org-agenda-ndays= is obsolete - please use
  1918. =org-agenda-span= instead.
  1919. Thanks to Julien Danjou for this.
  1920. *** Changes to the intended use of =org-export-latex-classes=
  1921. So far this variable has been used to specify the complete header
  1922. of the LaTeX document, including all the =\usepackage= calls
  1923. necessary for the document. This setup makes it difficult to
  1924. maintain the list of packages that Org itself would like to call,
  1925. for example for the special symbol support it needs.
  1926. First of all, you can *opt out of this change* in the following
  1927. way: You can say: /I want to have full control over headers, and I
  1928. will take responsibility to include the packages Org needs/. If
  1929. that is what you want, add this to your configuration and skip the
  1930. rest of this section (except maybe for the description of the
  1931. =[EXTRA]= place holder):
  1932. #+begin_src emacs-lisp
  1933. (setq org-export-latex-default-packages-alist nil
  1934. org-export-latex-packages-alist nil)
  1935. #+end_src
  1936. /Continue to read here if you want to go along with the modified
  1937. setup./
  1938. There are now two variables that should be used to list the LaTeX
  1939. packages that need to be included in all classes. The header
  1940. definition in =org-export-latex-classes= should then not contain
  1941. the corresponding =\usepackage= calls (see below).
  1942. The two new variables are:
  1943. 1. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist= :: This is the
  1944. variable where Org-mode itself puts the packages it needs.
  1945. Normally you should not change this variable. The only
  1946. reason to change it anyway is when one of these packages
  1947. causes a conflict with another package you want to use. Then
  1948. you can remove that packages and hope that you are not using
  1949. Org-mode functionality that needs it.
  1950. 2. =org-export-latex-packages-alist= :: This is the variable where
  1951. you can put the packages that you'd like to use across all
  1952. classes.
  1953. The sequence how these customizations will show up in the LaTeX
  1954. document are:
  1955. 1. Header from =org-export-latex-classes=
  1956. 2. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=
  1957. 3. =org-export-latex-packages-alist=
  1958. 4. Buffer-specific things set with =#+LaTeX_HEADER:=
  1959. If you want more control about which segment is placed where, or
  1960. if you want, for a specific class, have full control over the
  1961. header and exclude some of the automatic building blocks, you can
  1962. put the following macro-like place holders into the header:
  1963. #+begin_example
  1964. [DEFAULT-PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for default packages
  1965. [NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES] do not include any of the default packages
  1966. [PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for packages
  1967. [NO-PACKAGES] do not include the packages
  1968. [EXTRA] the stuff from #+LaTeX_HEADER
  1969. [NO-EXTRA] do not include #+LaTeX_HEADER stuff
  1970. #+end_example
  1971. If you have currently customized =org-export-latex-classes=, you
  1972. should revise that customization and remove any package calls that
  1973. are covered by =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. This
  1974. applies to the following packages:
  1975. - inputenc
  1976. - fontenc
  1977. - fixltx2e
  1978. - graphicx
  1979. - longtable
  1980. - float
  1981. - wrapfig
  1982. - soul
  1983. - t1enc
  1984. - textcomp
  1985. - marvosym
  1986. - wasysym
  1987. - latexsym
  1988. - amssymb
  1989. - hyperref
  1990. If one of these packages creates a conflict with another package
  1991. you are using, you can remove it from
  1992. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. But then you risk that
  1993. some of the advertised export features of Org will not work
  1994. properly.
  1995. You can also consider moving packages that you use in all classes
  1996. to =org-export-latex-packages-alist=. If necessary, put the place
  1997. holders so that the packages get loaded in the right sequence. As
  1998. said above, for backward compatibility, if you omit the place
  1999. holders, all the variables will dump their content at the end of
  2000. the header.
  2001. *** The constant =org-html-entities= is obsolete
  2002. Its content is now part of the new constant =org-entities=, which
  2003. is defined in the file org-entities.el. =org-html-entities= was
  2004. an internal variable, but it is possible that some users did write
  2005. code using it.
  2006. *** =org-bbdb-anniversary-format-alist= has changed
  2007. Please check the docstring and update your settings accordingly.
  2008. *** Deleted =org-mode-p=
  2009. This function has been deleted: please update your code.
  2010. ** Important new features
  2011. *** New Org to ODT exporter
  2012. Jambunathan's Org to ODT exporter is now part of Org.
  2013. To use it, it `C-c C-e o' in an Org file. See the documentation
  2014. for more information on how to customize it.
  2015. *** org-capture.el is now the default capture system
  2016. This replaces the earlier system org-remember. The manual only
  2017. describes org-capture, but for people who prefer to continue to
  2018. use org-remember, we keep a static copy of the former manual
  2019. section [[http://orgmode.org/org-remember.pdf][chapter about remember]].
  2020. The new system has a technically cleaner implementation and more
  2021. possibilities for capturing different types of data. See
  2022. [[http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/26441/focus%3D26441][Carsten's announcement]] for more details.
  2023. To switch over to the new system:
  2024. 1. Run
  2025. : M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET
  2026. to get a translated version of your remember templates into the
  2027. new variable =org-capture-templates=. This will "mostly" work,
  2028. but maybe not for all cases. At least it will give you a good
  2029. place to modify your templates. After running this command,
  2030. enter the customize buffer for this variable with
  2031. : M-x customize-variable RET org-capture-templates RET
  2032. and convince yourself that everything is OK. Then save the
  2033. customization.
  2034. 2. Bind the command =org-capture= to a key, similar to what you did
  2035. with org-remember:
  2036. : (define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture)
  2037. If your fingers prefer =C-c r=, you can also use this key once
  2038. you have decided to move over completely to the new
  2039. implementation. During a test time, there is nothing wrong
  2040. with using both system in parallel.
  2041. ** New libraries
  2042. *** New Org libraries
  2043. **** org-eshell.el (Konrad Hinsen)
  2044. Implement links to eshell buffers.
  2045. **** org-special-blocks (Carsten Dominik)
  2046. This package generalizes the #+begin_foo and #+end_foo tokens.
  2047. To use, put the following in your init file:
  2048. #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
  2049. (require 'org-special-blocks)
  2050. #+END_EXAMPLE
  2051. The tokens #+begin_center, #+begin_verse, etc. existed
  2052. previously. This package generalizes them (at least for the
  2053. LaTeX and html exporters). When a #+begin_foo token is
  2054. encountered by the LaTeX exporter, it is expanded
  2055. into \begin{foo}. The text inside the environment is not
  2056. protected, as text inside environments generally is.
  2057. When #+begin_foo is encountered by the html exporter, a div with
  2058. class foo is inserted into the HTML file. It is up to the user
  2059. to add this class to his or her stylesheet if this div is to mean
  2060. anything.
  2061. **** org-taskjuggler.el (Christian Egli)
  2062. Christian Egli's /org-taskjuggler.el/ module is now part of Org.
  2063. He also wrote a [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler.php][tutorial]] for it.
  2064. **** org-ctags.el (Paul Sexton)
  2065. Targets like =<<my target>>= can now be found by Emacs' etag
  2066. functionality, and Org-mode links can be used to to link to
  2067. etags, also in non-Org-mode files. For details, see the file
  2068. /org-ctags.el/.
  2069. This feature uses a new hook =org-open-link-functions= which will
  2070. call function to do something special with text links.
  2071. Thanks to Paul Sexton for this contribution.
  2072. **** org-docview.el (Jan Böcker)
  2073. This new module allows links to various file types using docview, where
  2074. Emacs displays images of document pages. Docview link types can point
  2075. to a specific page in a document, for example to page 131 of the
  2076. Org-mode manual:
  2077. : [[docview:~/.elisp/org/doc/org.pdf::131][Org-Mode Manual]]
  2078. Thanks to Jan Böcker for this contribution.
  2079. *** New Babel libraries
  2080. - ob-picolisp.el (Thorsten Jolitz)
  2081. - ob-fortran.el (Sergey Litvinov)
  2082. - ob-shen.el (Eric Schulte)
  2083. - ob-maxima.el (Eric S Fraga)
  2084. - ob-java.el (Eric Schulte)
  2085. - ob-lilypond.el (Martyn Jago)
  2086. - ob-awk.el (Eric Schulte)
  2087. ** Other new features and various enhancements
  2088. *** Hyperlinks
  2089. **** Org-Bibtex -- major improvements
  2090. Provides support for managing bibtex bibliographical references
  2091. data in headline properties. Each headline corresponds to a
  2092. single reference and the relevant bibliographic meta-data is
  2093. stored in headline properties, leaving the body of the headline
  2094. free to hold notes and comments. Org-bibtex is aware of all
  2095. standard bibtex reference types and fields.
  2096. The key new functions are
  2097. - org-bibtex-check :: queries the user to flesh out all required
  2098. (and with prefix argument optional) bibtex fields available
  2099. for the specific reference =type= of the current headline.
  2100. - org-bibtex-create :: Create a new entry at the given level,
  2101. using org-bibtex-check to flesh out the relevant fields.
  2102. - org-bibtex-yank :: Yank a bibtex entry on the kill ring as a
  2103. formatted Org-mode headline into the current buffer
  2104. - org-bibtex-export-to-kill-ring :: Export the current headline
  2105. to the kill ring as a formatted bibtex entry.
  2106. **** org-gnus.el now allows link creation from messages
  2107. You can now create links from messages. This is particularly
  2108. useful when the user wants to stored messages that he sends, for
  2109. later check. Thanks to Ulf Stegemann for the patch.
  2110. **** Modified link escaping
  2111. David Maus worked on `org-link-escape'. See [[http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/37888][his message]]:
  2112. : Percent escaping is used in Org mode to escape certain characters
  2113. : in links that would either break the parser (e.g. square brackets
  2114. : in link target oder description) or are not allowed to appear in
  2115. : a particular link type (e.g. non-ascii characters in a http:
  2116. : link).
  2117. :
  2118. : With this change in place Org will apply percent escaping and
  2119. : unescaping more consistently especially for non-ascii characters.
  2120. : Additionally some of the outstanding bugs or glitches concerning
  2121. : percent escaped links are solved.
  2122. Thanks a lot to David for this work.
  2123. **** Make =org-store-link= point to directory in a dired buffer
  2124. When, in a dired buffer, the cursor is not in a line listing a
  2125. file, `org-store-link' will store a link to the directory.
  2126. Patch by Stephen Eglen.
  2127. **** Allow regexps in =org-file-apps= to capture link parameters
  2128. The way extension regexps in =org-file-apps= are handled has
  2129. changed. Instead of matching against the file name, the regexps
  2130. are now matched against the whole link, and you can use grouping
  2131. to extract link parameters which you can then use in a command
  2132. string to be executed.
  2133. For example, to allow linking to PDF files using the syntax
  2134. =file:/doc.pdf::<page number>=, you can add the following entry
  2135. to org-file-apps:
  2136. #+begin_example
  2137. Extension: \.pdf::\([0-9]+\)\'
  2138. Command: evince "%s" -p %1
  2139. #+end_example
  2140. Thanks to Jan Böcker for a patch to this effect.
  2141. *** Dates and time
  2142. **** Allow relative time when scheduling/adding a deadline
  2143. You can now use relative duration strings like "-2d" or "++3w"
  2144. when calling =org-schedule= or =org-deadline=: it will schedule
  2145. (or set the deadline for) the item respectively two days before
  2146. today and three weeks after the current timestamp, if any.
  2147. You can use this programmatically: =(org-schedule nil "+2d")=
  2148. will work on the current entry.
  2149. You can also use this while (bulk-)rescheduling and
  2150. (bulk-)resetting the deadline of (several) items from the agenda.
  2151. Thanks to Memnon Anon for a heads up about this!
  2152. **** American-style dates are now understood by =org-read-date=
  2153. So when you are prompted for a date, you can now answer like this
  2154. #+begin_example
  2155. 2/5/3 --> 2003-02-05
  2156. 2/5 --> <CURRENT-YEAR>-02-05
  2157. #+end_example
  2158. *** Agenda
  2159. **** =org-agenda-custom-commands= has a default value
  2160. This option used to be `nil' by default. This now has a default
  2161. value, displaying an agenda and all TODOs. See the docstring for
  2162. details. Thanks to Carsten for this.
  2163. **** Improved filtering through =org-agenda-to-appt=
  2164. The new function allows the user to refine the scope of entries
  2165. to pass to =org-agenda-get-day-entries= and allows to filter out
  2166. entries using a function.
  2167. Thanks to Peter Münster for raising a related issue and to
  2168. Tassilo Horn for this idea. Also thanks to Peter Münster for
  2169. [[git:68ffb7a7][fixing a small bug]] in the final implementation.
  2170. **** Allow ap/pm times in agenda time grid
  2171. Times in the agenda can now be displayed in am/pm format. See
  2172. the new variable =org-agenda-timegrid-use-ampm=. Thanks to
  2173. C. A. Webber for a patch to this effect.
  2174. **** Agenda: Added a bulk "scattering" command
  2175. =B S= in the agenda buffer will cause tasks to be rescheduled a
  2176. random number of days into the future, with 7 as the default.
  2177. This is useful if you've got a ton of tasks scheduled for today,
  2178. you realize you'll never deal with them all, and you just want
  2179. them to be distributed across the next N days. When called with
  2180. a prefix arg, rescheduling will avoid weekend days.
  2181. Thanks to John Wiegley for this.
  2182. *** Exporting
  2183. **** Simplification of org-export-html-preamble/postamble
  2184. When set to `t', export the preamble/postamble as usual, honoring
  2185. the =org-export-email/author/creator-info= variables.
  2186. When set to a formatting string, insert this string. See the
  2187. docstring of these variable for details about available
  2188. %-sequences.
  2189. You can set =:html-preamble= in publishing project in the same
  2190. way: `t' means to honor =:email/creator/author-info=, and a
  2191. formatting string will insert a string.
  2192. **** New exporters to Latin-1 and UTF-8
  2193. While Ulf Stegemann was going through the entities list to
  2194. improve the LaTeX export, he had the great idea to provide
  2195. representations for many of the entities in Latin-1, and for all
  2196. of them in UTF-8. This means that we can now export files rich
  2197. in special symbols to Latin-1 and to UTF-8 files. These new
  2198. exporters can be reached with the commands =C-c C-e n= and =C-c
  2199. C-e u=, respectively.
  2200. When there is no representation for a given symbol in the
  2201. targeted coding system, you can choose to keep the TeX-macro-like
  2202. representation, or to get an "explanatory" representation. For
  2203. example, =\simeq= could be represented as "[approx. equal to]".
  2204. Please use the variable =org-entities-ascii-explanatory= to state
  2205. your preference.
  2206. **** HTML export: Add class to outline containers using property
  2207. The =HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS= property can now be used to add a
  2208. class name to the outline container of a node in HTML export.
  2209. **** Throw an error when creating an image from a LaTeX snippet fails
  2210. This behavior can be configured with the new option variable
  2211. =org-format-latex-signal-error=.
  2212. **** Support for creating BEAMER presentations from Org-mode documents
  2213. Org-mode documents or subtrees can now be converted directly in
  2214. to BEAMER presentation. Turning a tree into a simple
  2215. presentations is straight forward, and there is also quite some
  2216. support to make richer presentations as well. See the [[http://orgmode.org/manual/Beamer-class-export.html#Beamer-class-export][BEAMER
  2217. section]] in the manual for more details.
  2218. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the discussion about
  2219. BEAMER support and how it should work. This was a great example
  2220. for how this community can achieve a much better result than any
  2221. individual could.
  2222. *** Refiling
  2223. **** Refile targets can now be cached
  2224. You can turn on caching of refile targets by setting the variable
  2225. =org-refile-use-cache=. This should speed up refiling if you
  2226. have many eligible targets in many files. If you need to update
  2227. the cache because Org misses a newly created entry or still
  2228. offers a deleted one, press =C-0 C-c C-w=.
  2229. **** New logging support for refiling
  2230. Whenever you refile an item, a time stamp and even a note can be
  2231. added to this entry. For details, see the new option
  2232. =org-log-refile=.
  2233. Thanks to Charles Cave for this idea.
  2234. *** Completion
  2235. **** In-buffer completion is now done using John Wiegley's pcomplete.el
  2236. Thanks to John Wiegley for much of this code.
  2237. *** Tables
  2238. **** New command =org-table-transpose-table-at-point=
  2239. See the docstring. This hack from Juan Pechiar is now part of
  2240. Org's core. Thanks to Juan!
  2241. **** Display field's coordinates when editing it with =C-c `=
  2242. When editing a field with =C-c `=, the field's coordinate will
  2243. the displayed in the buffer.
  2244. Thanks to Michael Brand for a patch to this effect.
  2245. **** Spreadsheet computation of durations and time values
  2246. If you want to compute time values use the =T= flag, either in
  2247. Calc formulas or Elisp formulas:
  2248. | Task 1 | Task 2 | Total |
  2249. |--------+--------+---------|
  2250. | 35:00 | 35:00 | 1:10:00 |
  2251. #+TBLFM: @2$3=$1+$2;T
  2252. Values must be of the form =[HH:]MM:SS=, where hours are
  2253. optional.
  2254. Thanks to Martin Halder, Eric Schulte and Carsten for code and
  2255. feedback on this.
  2256. **** Implement formulas applying to field ranges
  2257. Carsten implemented this field-ranges formulas.
  2258. : A frequently requested feature for tables has been to be able to define
  2259. : row formulas in a way similar to column formulas. The patch below allows
  2260. : things like
  2261. :
  2262. : @3=
  2263. : @2$2..@5$7=
  2264. : @I$2..@II$4=
  2265. :
  2266. : as the left hand side for table formulas in order to write a formula that
  2267. : is valid for an entire column or for a rectangular section in a
  2268. : table.
  2269. Thanks a lot to Carsten for this.
  2270. **** Sending radio tables from org buffers is now allowed
  2271. Org radio tables can no also be sent inside Org buffers. Also,
  2272. there is a new hook which get called after a table has been sent.
  2273. Thanks to Seweryn Kokot.
  2274. *** Lists
  2275. **** Improved handling of lists
  2276. Nicolas Goaziou extended and improved the way Org handles lists.
  2277. 1. Indentation of text determines again end of items in
  2278. lists. So, some text less indented than the previous item
  2279. doesn't close the whole list anymore, only all items more
  2280. indented than it.
  2281. 2. Alphabetical bullets are implemented, through the use of the
  2282. variable `org-alphabetical-lists'. This also adds alphabetical
  2283. counters like [@c] or [@W].
  2284. 3. Lists can now safely contain drawers, inline tasks, or various
  2285. blocks, themselves containing lists. Two variables are
  2286. controlling this: `org-list-forbidden-blocks', and
  2287. `org-list-export-context'.
  2288. 4. Improve `newline-and-indent' (C-j): used in an item, it will
  2289. keep text from moving at column 0. This allows to split text
  2290. and make paragraphs and still not break the list.
  2291. 5. Improve `org-toggle-item' (C-c -): used on a region with
  2292. standard text, it will change the region into one item. With a
  2293. prefix argument, it will fallback to the previous behavior and
  2294. make every line in region an item. It permits to easily
  2295. integrate paragraphs inside a list.
  2296. 6. `fill-paragraph' (M-q) now understands lists. It can freely be
  2297. used inside items, or on text just after a list, even with no
  2298. blank line around, without breaking list structure.
  2299. Thanks a lot to Nicolas for all this!
  2300. *** Inline display of linked images
  2301. Images can now be displayed inline. The key C-c C-x C-v does
  2302. toggle the display of such images. Note that only image links
  2303. that have no description part will be inlined.
  2304. *** Implement offsets for ordered lists
  2305. If you want to start an ordered plain list with a number different
  2306. from 1, you can now do it like this:
  2307. : 1. [@start:12] will star a lit a number 12
  2308. *** Babel: code block body expansion for table and preview
  2309. In org-babel, code is "expanded" prior to evaluation. I.e. the
  2310. code that is actually evaluated comprises the code block contents,
  2311. augmented with the extra code which assigns the referenced data to
  2312. variables. It is now possible to preview expanded contents, and
  2313. also to expand code during during tangling. This expansion takes
  2314. into account all header arguments, and variables.
  2315. A new keybinding `C-c M-b p' bound to `org-babel-expand-src-block'
  2316. can be used from inside of a source code block to preview its
  2317. expanded contents (which can be very useful for debugging).
  2318. tangling
  2319. The expanded body can now be tangled, this includes variable
  2320. values which may be the results of other source-code blocks, or
  2321. stored in headline properties or tables. One possible use for this
  2322. is to allow those using org-babel for their emacs initialization
  2323. to store values (e.g. usernames, passwords, etc...) in headline
  2324. properties or in tables.
  2325. Org-babel now supports three new header arguments, and new default
  2326. behavior for handling horizontal lines in tables (hlines), column
  2327. names, and rownames across all languages.
  2328. *** Editing Convenience and Appearance
  2329. **** New command =org-copy-visible= (=C-c C-x v=)
  2330. This command will copy the visible text in the region into the
  2331. kill ring. Thanks to Florian Beck for this function and to
  2332. Carsten for adding it to org.el and documenting it!
  2333. **** Make it possible to protect hidden subtrees from being killed by =C-k=
  2334. See the new variable =org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree=. This was a
  2335. request by Scott Otterson.
  2336. **** Implement pretty display of entities, sub-, and superscripts.
  2337. The command =C-c C-x \= toggles the display of Org's special
  2338. entities like =\alpha= as pretty unicode characters. Also, sub
  2339. and superscripts are displayed in a pretty way (raised/lower
  2340. display, in a smaller font). If you want to exclude sub- and
  2341. superscripts, see the variable
  2342. =org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts=.
  2343. Thanks to Eric Schulte and Ulf Stegeman for making this possible.
  2344. **** New faces for title, date, author and email address lines
  2345. The keywords in these lines are now dimmed out, and the title is
  2346. displayed in a larger font, and a special font is also used for
  2347. author, date, and email information. This is implemented by the
  2348. following new faces:
  2349. =org-document-title=
  2350. =org-document-info=
  2351. =org-document-info-keyword=
  2352. In addition, the variable =org-hidden-keywords= can be used to
  2353. make the corresponding keywords disappear.
  2354. Thanks to Dan Davison for this feature.
  2355. **** Simpler way to specify faces for tags and todo keywords
  2356. The variables =org-todo-keyword-faces=, =org-tag-faces=, and
  2357. =org-priority-faces= now accept simple color names as
  2358. specifications. The colors will be used as either foreground or
  2359. background color for the corresponding keyword. See also the
  2360. variable =org-faces-easy-properties=, which governs which face
  2361. property is affected by this setting.
  2362. This is really a great simplification for setting keyword faces.
  2363. The change is based on an idea and patch by Ryan Thompson.
  2364. **** <N> in tables now means fixed width, not maximum width
  2365. Requested by Michael Brand.
  2366. **** Better level cycling function
  2367. =TAB= in an empty headline cycles the level of that headline
  2368. through likely states. Ryan Thompson implemented an improved
  2369. version of this function, which does not depend upon when exactly
  2370. this command is used. Thanks to Ryan for this improvement.
  2371. **** Adaptive filling
  2372. For paragraph text, =org-adaptive-fill-function= did not handle
  2373. the base case of regular text which needed to be filled. This is
  2374. now fixed. Among other things, it allows email-style ">"
  2375. comments to be filled correctly.
  2376. Thanks to Dan Hackney for this patch.
  2377. **** `org-reveal' (=C-c C-r=) also decrypts encrypted entries (org-crypt.el)
  2378. Thanks to Richard Riley for triggering this change.
  2379. **** Better automatic letter selection for TODO keywords
  2380. When all first letters of keywords have been used, Org now
  2381. assigns more meaningful characters based on the keywords.
  2382. Thanks to Mikael Fornius for this patch.
  2383. *** Clocking
  2384. **** Clock: Allow synchronous update of timestamps in CLOCK log
  2385. Using =S-M-<up/down>= on CLOCK log timestamps will
  2386. increase/decrease the two timestamps on this line so that
  2387. duration will keep the same. Note that duration can still be
  2388. slightly modified in case a timestamp needs some rounding.
  2389. Thanks to Rainer Stengele for this idea.
  2390. **** Localized clock tables
  2391. Clock tables now support a new new =:lang= parameter, allowing
  2392. the user to customize the localization of the table headers. See
  2393. the variable =org-clock-clocktable-language-setup= which controls
  2394. available translated strings.
  2395. **** Show clock overruns in mode line
  2396. When clocking an item with a planned effort, overrunning the
  2397. planned time is now made visible in the mode line, for example
  2398. using the new face =org-mode-line-clock-overrun=, or by adding an
  2399. extra string given by =org-task-overrun-text=.
  2400. Thanks to Richard Riley for a patch to this effect.
  2401. **** Clock reports can now include the running, incomplete clock
  2402. If you have a clock running, and the entry being clocked falls
  2403. into the scope when creating a clock table, the time so far spent
  2404. can be added to the total. This behavior depends on the setting
  2405. of =org-clock-report-include-clocking-task=. The default is
  2406. =nil=.
  2407. Thanks to Bernt Hansen for this useful addition.
  2408. *** Misc
  2409. **** Improvements with inline tasks and indentation
  2410. There is now a configurable way on how to export inline tasks.
  2411. See the new variable =org-inlinetask-export-templates=.
  2412. Thanks to Nicolas Goaziou for coding these changes.
  2413. **** A property value of "nil" now means to unset a property
  2414. This can be useful in particular with property inheritance, if
  2415. some upper level has the property, and some grandchild of it
  2416. would like to have the default settings (i.e. not overruled by a
  2417. property) back.
  2418. Thanks to Robert Goldman and Bernt Hansen for suggesting this
  2419. change.
  2420. **** New helper functions in org-table.el
  2421. There are new functions to access and write to a specific table field.
  2422. This is for hackers, and maybe for the org-babel people.
  2423. #+begin_example
  2424. org-table-get
  2425. org-table-put
  2426. org-table-current-line
  2427. org-table-goto-line
  2428. #+end_example
  2429. **** Archiving: Allow to reverse order in target node
  2430. The new option =org-archive-reversed-order= allows to have
  2431. archived entries inserted in a last-on-top fashion in the target
  2432. node.
  2433. This was requested by Tom.
  2434. **** Org-reveal: Double prefix arg shows the entire subtree of the parent
  2435. This can help to get out of an inconsistent state produced for
  2436. example by viewing from the agenda.
  2437. This was a request by Matt Lundin.
