227 Org-mode is a mode for keeping notes, maintaining ToDo lists, and doing | |
228 project planning with a fast and effective plain-text system. | |
229 | |
230 Org-mode develops organizational tasks around NOTES files that contain | |
231 information about projects as plain text. Org-mode is implemented on | |
232 top of outline-mode, which makes it possible to keep the content of | |
233 large files well structured. Visibility cycling and structure editing | |
234 help to work with the tree. Tables are easily created with a built-in | |
235 table editor. Org-mode supports ToDo items, deadlines, time stamps, | |

365 | |
366 Org-mode is implemented on top of outline-mode. Outlines allow to | |
367 organize a document in a hierarchical structure, which (at least for | |
368 me) is the best representation of notes and thoughts. Overview over | |
369 this structure is achieved by folding (hiding) large parts of the | |
370 document to show only the general document structure and the parts | |
371 currently being worked on. Org-mode greatly simplifies the use of | |
372 outlines by compressing the entire show/hide functionality into a | |
373 single command @command{org-cycle}, which is bound to the @key{TAB} | |
374 key. | |

570 @cindex filing subtrees |
63362 | 571 |
63833 | 572 When a project represented by a (sub)tree is finished, you may want |
573 to move the tree to an archive place, either in the same file under a | |
63362 | 574 special top-level heading, or even to a different file. |

579 given by @code{org-archive-location}. | |
580 @end table | |
581 | |
582 @cindex archive locations | |
583 The default archive is a file in the same directory as the current | |
584 file, with the name derived by appending @file{_archive} to the | |
585 current file name. For information and examples on how to change | |
586 this, see the documentation string of the variable | |
587 @code{org-archive-location}. If you are also using the Org-mode | |
588 agenda, archiving to a different file is a good way to keep archived | |
589 trees from contributing agenda items. | |

773 A table is re-aligned automatically each time you press @key{TAB} or | |
63833 | 774 @key{RET} or @kbd{C-c C-c} inside the table. @key{TAB} also moves to |
775 the next field (@key{RET} to the next row) and creates new table rows | |
776 at the end of the table or before horizontal lines. The indentation | |
777 of the table is set by the first line. Any line starting with | |
778 @samp{|-} is considered as a horizontal separator line and will be | |
779 expanded on the next re-align to span the whole table width. So, to | |
780 create the above table, you would only type | |

63833 | 1045 |
65656 | 1046 The table editor makes use of the Emacs @file{calc} package to |
1047 implement spreadsheet-like capabilities. Org-mode has two levels of | |
1048 complexity for table calculations. On the basic level, tables do only | |
1049 horizontal computations, so a field can be computed from other fields | |
1050 @emph{in the same row}, and Org-mode assumes that there is only one | |
1051 formula for each column. This is very efficient to work with and | |
1052 enough for many tasks. On the complex level, columns and individual | |
1053 fields can be named for easier referencing in formulas, individual | |
1054 named fields can have their own formula associated with them, and | |
1055 recalculation can be automated. | |

1139 @cindex formula, for table column |
63833 | 1140 |
1141 To apply a formula to a field, type it directly into the field, | |
1142 preceded by an equal sign, like @samp{=$1+$2}. When you press | |
1143 @key{TAB} or @key{RET} or @kbd{C-c C-c} with the cursor still in the | |
64517 | 1144 field, the formula will be stored as the formula for the current |
1145 column, evaluated and the current field replaced with the result. If | |
1146 the field contains only @samp{=}, the previously stored formula for | |
1147 this column is used. | |
63833 | 1148 |
1149 For each column, Org-mode will remember the most recently used | |
64517 | 1150 formula. The information is stored in a special line starting with |
1151 @samp{#+TBLFM} directly below the table. When adding/deleting/moving | |
1152 columns with the appropriate commands, the stored equations will be | |
1153 modified accordingly. When a column used in a calculation is removed, | |
1154 references to this column become invalid and will cause an error upon | |
1155 applying the equation. | |
63833 | 1156 |
1157 Instead of typing an equation into the field, you may also use the | |
1158 command @kbd{C-c =}. It prompts for a formula (with default taken | |
64517 | 1159 from the @samp{#+TBLFM:} line) and applies it to the current field. A |
1160 numerical prefix (e.g. @kbd{C-5 C-c =}) will apply it to that many | |
1161 subsequent fields in the current column. | |

1163 @cindex recomputing table fields |
63833 | 1164 To recompute all the fields in a line, use the command @kbd{C-c *}. |
1165 It re-applies all stored equations to the current row, from left to | |
1166 right. With a @kbd{C-u} prefix, this will be done to every line in | |
1167 the table, so use this command it you want to make sure the entire | |
64517 | 1168 table is up-to-date. @kbd{C-u C-c C-c} is another way to update the |
1169 entire table. Global updating does not touch the line(s) above the | |
1170 first horizontal separator line, assuming that this is the table | |
1171 header. | |

1216 This row defines names for the fields @emph{above} the row. With such |
64517 | 1217 a definition, any formula in the table may use @samp{$m1} to refer to |
1218 the value @samp{10}. Also, named fields can have their own formula | |

1224 Fields in this row can define @emph{parameters} for formulas. For | |
1225 example, if a field in a @samp{$} row contains @samp{max=50}, then | |
1226 formulas in this table can refer to the value 50 using @samp{$max}. | |
1227 Parameters work exactly like constants, only that they can be defined on | |

1233 is selected for a global recalculation with @kbd{C-u C-c *}. Unmarked | |
1234 lines will be left alone by this command. | |

1237 not for automatic recalculation. Use this when automatic | |

1283 In particular for large tables with many formulas, it is convenient to | |

1286 line, and you are free to edit, add and remove formulas. Press | |
1287 @kbd{C-c ?} on a @samp{$...} expression to get information about its | |
1288 interpretation. Exiting the buffer with @kbd{C-c C-c} only stores the | |
1289 modified formulas below the table. Exiting with @kbd{C-u C-c C-c} | |

63362 | 1774 So a fast way to store the note is to press @kbd{C-c C-c @key{RET} |
1775 @key{RET}} to append it to the default file. Even shorter would be | |
1776 @kbd{C-u C-c C-c}, which does the same without even showing the tree. | |
1777 But with little extra effort, you can push it directly to the correct | |
1778 location. | |

1780 Before inserting the text into a tree, the function ensures that the | |
1781 text has a headline, i.e. a first line that starts with a @samp{*}. | |
1782 If not, a headline is constructed from the current date and some | |
1783 additional data. If the variable @code{org-adapt-indentation} is | |
63833 | 1784 non-nil, the entire text is also indented so that it starts in the |
1785 same column as the headline (after the asterisks). | |

62548 | 2521 |
64069 | 2522 Org-mode checks each agenda item for a time-of-day specification. The |
63833 | 2523 time can be part of the time stamp that triggered inclusion into the |
2524 agenda, for example as in @w{@samp{<2005-05-10 Tue 19:00>}}. Time | |
2525 ranges can be specified with two time stamps, like | |
62548 | 2526 @c |
2527 @w{@samp{<2005-05-10 Tue 20:30>--<2005-05-10 Tue 22:15>}}. | |
2528 | |
2529 In the headline of the entry itself, a time(range) may also appear as | |
2530 plain text (like @samp{12:45} or a @samp{8:30-1pm}. If the agenda | |
2531 integrates the Emacs diary (@pxref{Calendar/Diary integration}), time | |
2532 specifications in diary entries are recognized as well. | |
2533 | |
2534 For agenda display, Org-mode extracts the time and displays it in a | |
2535 standard 24 hour format as part of the prefix. The example times in | |
2536 the previous paragraphs would end up in the agenda like this: | |
2537 | |
2538 @example | |
2539 8:30-13:00 Arthur Dent lies in front of the bulldozer | |
2540 12:45...... Ford Prefect arrives and takes Arthur to the pub | |
2541 19:00...... The Vogon reads his poem | |
2542 20:30-22:15 Marwin escorts the Hitchhikers to the bridge | |
2543 @end example | |
2544 | |
2545 If the agenda is in single-day mode, or for the display of today, the | |
2546 timed entries are embedded in a time grid, like | |
2547 | |
2548 @example | |
2549 8:00...... ------------------ | |
2550 8:30-13:00 Arthur Dent lies in front of the bulldozer | |
2551 10:00...... ------------------ | |
2552 12:00...... ------------------ | |
2553 12:45...... Ford Prefect arrives and takes Arthur to the pub | |
2554 14:00...... ------------------ | |
2555 16:00...... ------------------ | |
2556 18:00...... ------------------ | |
2557 19:00...... The Vogon reads his poem | |
2558 20:00...... ------------------ | |
2559 20:30-22:15 Marwin escorts the Hitchhikers to the bridge | |
2560 @end example | |
2561 | |
2562 The time grid can be turned on and off with the variable | |
2563 @code{org-agenda-use-time-grid}, and can be configured with | |
2564 @code{org-agenda-time-grid}. | |

2602 The entries for each day are sorted. The default order is to first | |
2603 collect all items containing an explicit time-of-day specification. | |
2604 These entries will be shown at the beginning of the list, as a | |
2605 @emph{schedule} for the day. After that, items remain grouped in | |
2606 categories, in the sequence given by @code{org-agenda-files}. Within | |
2607 each category, items are sorted by priority (@pxref{Priorities}). | |
2608 | |
2609 The priority is a numerical quantity composed of the base priority | |
2610 (2000 for priority @samp{A}, 1000 for @samp{B}, and 0 for @samp{C}), | |
2611 plus additional increments for overdue scheduled or deadline items. | |
2612 | |
2613 Sorting can be customized using the variable | |
2614 @code{org-agenda-sorting-strategy}. | |

3770 Org-mode uses the calc package for implementing spreadsheet | |
3771 functionality in its tables (@pxref{Table calculations}). Org-modes | |
3772 checks for the availability of calc by looking for the function | |
3773 @code{calc-eval} which should be autoloaded in your setup if calc has | |
3774 been installed properly. As of Emacs 22, calc is part of the Emacs | |
3775 distribution. Another possibility for interaction between the two | |
3776 packages is using calc for embedded calculations. @xref{Embedded Mode, | |

3781 names for natural constants or units. Instead of defining your own |
63833 | 3782 constants in the variable @code{org-table-formula-constants}, install |
3783 the @file{constants} package which defines a large number of constants | |
3784 and units, and lets you use unit prefixes like @samp{M} for | |
3785 @samp{Mega} etc. You will need version 2.0 of this package, available | |
3786 at @url{http://www.astro.uva.nl/~dominik/Tools}. Org-mode checks for | |
3787 the function @code{constants-get}, which has to be autoloaded in your | |
3788 setup. See the installation instructions in the file | |
