Hi!
First things first:
Org mode is great!
Org is the reason I started using emacs a few months ago.
Thanks for this fine software.
I am using the column view very often and added several columns to my
org-file using this line
,----
| #+COLUMNS: %35ITEM %4TODO %1PRIORITY %19SCHEDULED %10TAGS %5ESTIMATE{:}
| %5CLOCKSUM
`----
I am still experimenting quite a bit and my question is:
Is there a simple way to cut the year out of the scheduled column?
Right now, it displays e.g. like this: 2008-10-10 Mi 13:15.
Can this be cut down to something like 10-10 Mi 13:15 ?
I do not plan years ahead ;)
And another question related to the Agenda View.
I dislike scheduling everything. I have got some Items I work on whenever I
need a break. These Items do not get a real timestamp because I can not say
before when I will work on them. But, if I do, I often spend some hours on
them. Of course, I still clock them.
Orgmode provides this nice timeline view, but this only displays tasks with
time-stamped items. Using column view, it provides even more useful
information.
Is there a way to have a timeline that focuses not on time-stamped items but on
the clocked time? Thus showing me when and how long I actually worked on items
and not when I planned to do so?

If I missed some crucial information in the org manual, a simple *RTFM*
is enough and sorry for the noise.
If anyone out there has a simple solution or a different "workflow" to adopt
and achieve this, your suggestion would be very much appreciated.
Thanks and have a nice day ;)

That sounds like a great use of the a tag (like TODAY) so you can create
a list of tasks with that tag and pick what to work on from that.

You can use 'l' in the agenda view to see what, when, and how long
things were clocked for. It doesn't summarize totals of the clocked
time - I use clock reports for that.
