Thanks John! The structure of Org files (hierarchy and lists) makes it easy to define TODO dependencies. A parent TODO task should not be marked DONE until all subtasks (defined as children tasks) are marked as DONE. And sometimes there is a logical sequence to a number of (sub)tasks, so that one task cannot be acted upon before all siblings above it are done. If you customize the variable `org-enforce-todo-dependencies', Org will block entries from changing state while they have children that are not DONE. Furthermore, if an entry has a property `ORDERED', each of its children will be blocked until all earlier siblings are marked DONE. Here is an example: * TODO Blocked until (two) is done ** DONE one ** TODO two * Parent ** TODO a ** TODO b, needs to wait for (a) ** TODO c, needs to wait for (a) and (b) The variable `org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks' controls how blocked entries should appear in the agenda, where they can be dimmed or even made invisible. Support for shift-selection in Emacs 23 ---------------------------------------- Customize the variable `org-support-shift-select' to use S-cursor key for selecting text. Make sure that you carefully read the docstring of that variable first.
