Enjoy! - Carsten Version 5.09 ------------ * Overview - Taking a note upon TODO state changes can be restricted to selected states. - The format in which dates are shown in the daily/weekly agenda can be configured. - The default for `org-remember-store-without-prompt' is now t. - `org-goto' has been made into a general lookup command. - Priority cycling goes back to the nil state. - You can store a remember note to the *last used* location. - On Emacs 23, the headline faces for org-mode are now inherited from the outline faces. * Incompatible Changes - The default for `org-remember-store-without-prompt' is now t, in order to better match the original intent of remember.el (storing a note with minimum interruption of work flow). I expect that many people will be hit by this incompatible change - nevertheless I believe it is the right thing to do. * Details - You can now select specific states for recording a note when switching to that state. With the setting #+SEQ_TODO: TODO(t) ORDERED(o@) INVOICE(i@) PAYED(p) | RECEIVED(r) #+STARTUP: lognotestate only the states ORDERED and INVOICE will record a timestamp and a note. - You can now set the format of the string for each day in the agenda and timeline buffers. You can use a format string interpreted by `format-time-string', or you can write your own function. Configure the new variable `org-agenda-format-date'. Thanks to Levin for triggering this development with a patch. - The default for `org-remember-store-without-prompt' is now t, in order to better match the original intent of remember.el (storing a note with minimum interruption of work flow). Since we can assign files and headlines to templates, I guess this takes care of selecting a filing location in most cases. For interactive filing, you now need a prefix command when exiting `remember'. - `org-goto' (bound to `C-c C-j') now uses an indirect buffer and has additional commands enabled: Org-occur with `C-c /' or even faster with `/', and the commands needed to select and copy a region. This make `org-goto' a more general lookup command instead of only a jumping command. Remember that you can exit with `Q' to go back to the original location. Thanks to William Henney for this idea. - Setting the priority with S-up/down now cycles back to a state where no priority is specified. This was requested by Rick Moynihan. - You can store a remember note to the *last used* location. So if you select a location interactively once, you can re-use it without having to find it again. For this, exit the remember buffer with `C-u C-u C-c C-c'. The leading comment in the remember buffer will tell exactly where the note goes if you exit with a particular command. Thanks to Maxim Loginov for this idea. - On Emacs 23, the headline faces for org-mode are now inherited from the outline faces. This is just a convenience, so that you only have to configure one set of faces, and that will then be outline-1 .. outline-8. You will actually not see any difference in org-mode, because Stefan Monnier has made the outline faces in Emacs 23 to match the current org-mode faces. This change does not effect XEmacs, nor Emacs 21 and 22. - Bug fixes.
