Hi,
Let's say I have a repeating task like this:
** TODO Do this
SCHEDULED: <2008-10-29 Wed +1w>
Cycling to a done state will track the done time and increment the scheduled
time according to the repeater:
** TODO Do this
- State "DONE" [2008-10-29 Wed 10:44]
SCHEDULED: <2008-11-05 Wed +1w>
How can I display such items in the daily agenda? Turning on log mode will
only display CLOSED items, but since the above task is not closed, it doesn't
show up.
Thanks!

When I have a recurring task, it looks like this:
* TODO Do this
SCHEDULED: <2008-11-01 Sat +1d>
- State "DONE" [2008-10-31 Fri 12:00]
In other words, the "Done" lines are added beneath the SCHEDULED line.
As long as the SCHEDULED timestamp directly follows the TODO item, it
should show up in the agenda.
Did you perhaps accidentally move the SCHEDULED line?

It shows up no matter where the schedule line is in the body of the
task.
However I think what Hsiu-Khuern Tang is asking is that _completed_ logs
show up in the agenda (ie the fact that it was marked DONE yesterday).
As far as I know you can't do that. When you mark a repeating task done
it just reschedules to the future and there is no viewable log in the
agenda that you did it previously (unless you clock time against it)

Sorry, I misunderstood the question.
Yes, as far as I'm aware, the "DONE" lines don't show up in the log.
As Bernt suggested, I imagine you could write a function to clock the
items when you switch them to done. That way they'd show up in the
log.

Yes, that's what I meant.

Thanks for both of you for suggesting the use of clocked tasks. I did briefly
consider it, but I think it is too heavy-duty for my current use of Org-mode.
I suppose I can always use a keyword search for such lines. It shouldn't be
too hard to find a regexp that matches both "DONE" and the timestamp.

Are there people who would find it useful if log-mode in the
agenda showed all logged state changes? Might get crowded - but
it is certainly possible to implement that.

I'm not sure if that would be useful or not for me... but it would be
interesting :) It should probably be controlled by an option so you can
keep the current behaviour if your want.
Just my 2 cents,
Bernt

Have I EVER made such a change without making it configurable? :-)

Since I started this thread, you can count me as a "yes" vote :)
I'm still experimenting with different ways of organizing using Org-mode, so I
can't say for sure I'll use this feature in the end. I think it's nice to be
able to see state changes without using full-blown clocking. Personally, my
daily agenda won't get too crowded with these entries since I don't get that
many tasks done in a day, but that's no fault of Org-mode :)
Thanks for being so receptive to users' wishlists!

Yes, I would like this as an option. It would help me keep track of
how well I've been doing on my daily habits (exercising and such).

Agree. I use org-mode to track my diet and exercise.
If you could do:
# -*- mode: org.log
In my exercise and diet file that would be awesome!

This is now possible. To do it just for a single view,
press `C-u l' instead of `l' in the daily/weekly agenda.
If you like what you see and want this always to be present when you
turn on log mode, customize the variable `org-agenda-log-mode-items'.
Now, if you finish only ones task during a day, but with several state
changes, you can feel very productive already :-)

Yes, it does help! I tested this using the development version, and things
work just as described. I now have org-agenda-log-mode-items configured to
(closed state).
Thank you very much for implementing this!
