Hello group.

This is my first contribution to this email list.

Having a need to do my clocking in 1/4-hour multiples, I went and fully
implemented my own solution in org-mode BEFORE I realized that org-mode was
already set up to do it - it was just not completely implemented. I needed
to change a few (current-time) in org-clock-in (org-clock.el) to be
(org-current-time) and it works like a charm.

Here are the changes based on the development sources cloned via git today:

1198c1198
< (/ (- (org-float-time (org-current-time))
---
> (/ (- (org-float-time (current-time))
1202c1202
< (org-current-time)))
---
> (current-time)))


I have filled out the paperwork with FSF to be a developer in
emacs/org-mode.

My next project is to solve the problem that C-e does not move to the end
of the line with long lines that are not headings. I find myself doing this
often and have to hit multiple C-e s. I don't have the org-special-ctrl-a/e
set to non-nil. My line-move-visual is the default value of t, so I get the
end-of-visual-line movement one screen's worth. Before I make any changes,
I thought I should be clear on the design goals here. It seems as if the
declaration of line-move-visual says it is dealing with vertical motion,
not horizontal motion. I don't see any behavior elsewhere that uses the
interpretation that line-move-visual is for horizontal motion. Anyone have
thoughts on this subject?

What is your value of ̀org-time-stamp-rounding-minutes'?

Replacing (current-time) with (org-current-time) here will surprise
users that use ̀org-time-stamp-rounding-minutes' only for modifying
time-stamps and not for clocking in.

We could have an option for this, letting users decide whether they 
want `org-time-stamp-rounding-minutes' to apply to clocking in.  Do 
you want to work in this direction?

For next patches, please use `C-x v =' from the modified buffer, it
creates a well formatted patch.  Also consider git format-patch for
bigger changes.  Please read this:

Let us know when this is done.

C-e always go to the end of ordinary lines here, with various values of
`org-special-ctrl-a/e' and `line-move-visual'.  Can you post a recipe
and an example file so that I can reprodce?

I'm not sure I understand the issue correctly - thanks for further
details. 

Best,

It is  (15 15).

According to the documentation for org-time-stamp-rounding-minutes, the
first value of that list should apply to creating time stamps and the
second to modifying them. Does that differentiation cover the case you
gave? If we need to create another sort of encoding for
org-time-stamp-rounding-minutes, I can certainly work on coding that. I
find this feature really useful. Perhaps I misunderstand, but it seems like
one still needs to replace (current-time) with (org-current-time) as
org-current-time is where the value of org-time-stamp-rounding-minutes is
actually utilized.

I created a video to demonstrate this:
http://screencast.com/t/PS5BuhPdNcuP. It gives the environment
information after starting emacs with -Q. By the
way, I'm on a Windows-7 platform. The problem is the same whether the
second line in the buffer is a list entry or a plain line.
