Hi,
I have finally found a tolerable solution to include Google calendars
into Emacs and thus Org using "emacs-google"[1].
However, one thing is bothering me about the way Org agenda view handles
my newly populated diary file. It shows too much information! Basically,
I want /one line per entry/. If I want more info I'll just hit the
entry. The reason is that I will often include a lot of extra
information for each calendar/diary entry. When needed, I will fetch it
but it usually preclude the overview that I wish to obtain in the agenda
view.
Here is a simple agenda example:
,----
| Diary: Semester start
| Diary: Location: Lund University
| Diary: Status: CONFIRMED (UID: 5g7mb67iupjvf75cdorlr1bs2s@google.com)
`----
And the corresponding diary code:
,----
| %%(and (diary-block 1 17 2011 1 17 2011)) Semester start
| Location: Lund University
| Status: CONFIRMED (UID: 5g7mb67iupjvf75cdorlr1bs2s@google.com)
`----
What I want to agenda view to show is merely:
,----
| Diary: Semester start
`----
Or, even better:
,----
| Diary: Semester start (Lund University)
`----
I.e. no other information than the event and if possible the
location. If time is available this should also be displayed, but all in
one line.
Is this possible in one way or the other? If so I'd appreciate any hints
on getting there.
Thanks a bunch,
Rasmus

We can hack around to display multilines diary entries on a single agenda
line but then this diary entry would not properly sneak into the agenda:
02/11/2011
Bill B. visits Princeton today
2pm Cognitive Studies Committee meeting
2:30-5:30 Liz at Lawrenceville
4:00pm Dentist appt
7:30pm Dinner at George's
8:00-10:00pm concert
I guess many people have such multilines entries.
So I'd say for now no, you cannot reduce your diary entry to just one
line.
Best,

So what I'd want was just to display. If I'd want more info I'd just RET
the line.
The fuss might be caused by an auto-generated diary. I don't know.

Too bad.
Have a nice weekend.
