Subject: how do I search state change dates?
Date: Tue, 1 Jan 2019 14:16:27 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5a27130f-1c88-8fee-cd9b-0d46c138e0d1@binghamton.edu> (raw)
I try to keep track of books I want to read, and when I eventually read
them. I use TODO keyword for books I intend to read, and I change the
state to READING and then DONE, as appropriate. Each state change gets a
date/time stamp.
My preamble is:
#+TODO: TODO(t!) READING(r!) POSTPONED(p!) RESTARTED(s!) | DONE(d!)
NA(n!) ABANDONED(a!)
An entry for a book not yet read might look like this:
** TODO America: the Farewell Tour
:PROPERTIES:
:AUTHORLNAME: Hedges
:AUTHORFNAME: Chris
:ISBN: 9781501152672
:DATEADDED: <2018-10-10 Wed>
:END:
An entry for a book I've read might look like this:
** DONE Northland
- State "DONE" from "READING" [2018-10-21 Sun 22:45]
- State "READING" from "TODO" [2018-10-08 Mon 22:09]
:PROPERTIES:
:AUTHORLNAME: Fox
:AUTHORFNAME: Porter
:ISBN: 9780393248852
:DATEADDED: <2018-10-07 Sun>
:END:
How can I retrieve all the entries for the books I've read in 2018? In
other words, all those that changed state to DONE in 2018?
Thanks.
