Subject: bugs in org-remember-backup-directory
Date: Sat, 25 Apr 2009 15:08:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20524da70904251508w523010efj6a07e25f1cbb03fa@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I noticed the following regarding
org-remember-backup-directory:
1) auto-saving does not save contents
- solution: put (auto-save-mode 1) before or after (not
sure which) the call to org-set-local in the
following lines in org-remember:
# (expand-file-name
# (format-time-string "remember-%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S")
# org-remember-backup-directory))
# (save-buffer)
# (org-set-local 'auto-save-visited-file-name t))
# (when (save-excursion
2) save-buffer is called before there are any contents
- this causes files without useful content to stick
around in the dir if the buffer is killed or
something.
- solution: don't save the buffer; let auto-saving do
that work. will this work?
3) if you have auto-save-file-name-transforms set,
auto-saving is done according to that variable instead
of saving in place.
- solution: is this an emacs bug? i am not sure. the
auto-saving should be done in place, saving in
org-remember-backup-directory and not saving in the
place where the transforms variable tells it to save.
perhaps each user can kludge transforms or perhaps
emacs needs fixing? i have reached debugging ability
limit.
Thanks.
