Hi org-mode users and developers,
org-agenda is great but slow, sticky agenda solves this but gets
stale really fast. I try to refresh my org-agenda while Emacs is
idle like so:
(defun gz/refresh-agenda-when-idle ()
"Refresh Agenda while idle."
(org-agenda-redo 'all))
(setq gz/idle-agenda-timer (run-with-idle-timer 3 t 'gz/refresh-agenda-when-idle))
This should refresh my agenda after 3 seconds of idle time. But
when I change one of my agenda files (and save it), the change
does not occur in the agenda after 9 seconds of idle time
although the echo area shows "Rebuilding agenda buffer...done"
What's wrong with this settings?
If you want to play with this, use this test.org:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
(defun gz/refresh-agenda-when-idle ()
"Refresh Agenda while idle."
(org-agenda-redo 'all))
(setq gz/idle-agenda-timer (run-with-idle-timer 3 t 'gz/refresh-agenda-when-idle))
; in order to cancel the timer ans start afresh:
(cancel-timer gz/idle-agenda-timer)
* Change this heading and watch the agenda buffer: changing?

nd visit it like so:
emacs24 -Q -nw /tmp/nuff.org --eval '(org-agenda-file-to-front)' --eval '(org-agenda "a")'
The problem is the same with emacs25 and org-mode from git as of
today (but with emacs25 you'll have to arrange the windows
yourself).
Ciao, Gregor
