I added this --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (global-set-key "\C-c\C-x\C-o" 'org-clock-out) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- So I can clock out from every buffer without problems. It would be nice somehow to have a similar thing for clock in also. It's not so easy of course but most of the I clock in in the same buffer that I last clocked out. There could be a default choice which brings you there and otherwise asks you to which buffer you want to clock in, something like that.

Andrea, I tag all the jobs that I clock with :clocked: and then simply C-c a m clocked RET to bring up an agenda view with all of these items. Easy then to simply clock in the one I want. This, however, assumes that you have a relatively small set of such jobs... It does help that you can TAB complete on the tag so I typically type C-c a m clo TAB HTH, eric ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

The same function (i.e. org-clock-in in this case) except that an argument is passed to it. You can see from the definition of org-clock-in: ,---- | (defun org-clock-in (&optional select) | "Start the clock on the current item. | If necessary, clock-out of the currently active clock. | With prefix arg SELECT, offer a list of recently clocked tasks to | clock into. When SELECT is `C-u C-u', clock into the current task and mark | is as the default task, a special task that will always be offered in | the clocking selection, associated with the letter `d'." `---- that there is an optional argument called "select" which will be defined if you use C-u or C-u C-u as the documentation says.

The same function is called, but with the optional SELECT argument set. C-h f org-clock-in says: ,---- | org-clock-in is an interactive compiled Lisp function in | `org-clock.el'. | | (org-clock-in &optional SELECT) | | Start the clock on the current item. | If necessary, clock-out of the currently active clock. | With prefix arg SELECT, offer a list of recently clocked tasks to | clock into.

You call it like this: (org-clock-in 4) (that's what C-u M-x org-clock-in does), or (org-clock-in 16) (that's what C-u C-u M-x org-clock-in does.) And, btw, that's what C-u and C-u C-u do *always*: see section 7.10, Numeric Arguments, in the Emacs manual. HTH, Nick ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

Hi Andrea, I have a couple of tasks I regularly clock in (organization, and read mail/news). These I clock in by F9-o and F9-m respectively. They look up the task by id and clock it in no matter what buffer I am in. I have F9-O as org-clock-out. F11 is bound to org-clock-goto and C-F11 bound to org-clock-in so I can return to my last clocked task simply by pressing F11, or I can visit any recently clocked task with C-u F11 and I can clock in any recently clocked task with C-u C-F11. I use this all the time without thinking about it anymore :) More details are here: http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html#KeyBindings http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html#ClockSetup Regards, Bernt ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
