Hi, I have a todo.org file with some local variables, here is the file content # Local Variables: # eval: (setq org-todo-keyword-faces # '(("TOSTART" . "red") # ("PLANING" . "yellow") # ("DOING" . "yellow") # ("CHECKING" . "yellow") # ("WAITING" . "green") # ("DOCUMENTING" . "yellow"))) # End: #+TODO: TOSTART PLANING DOING CHECKING WAITING DOCUMENTING RELEASE * TOSTART DO SOMETHING And here is the snippet of my .emacs ;; TODO file: (defvar todo-file "~/todo.org" "My todo list!") (setq enable-local-variables :all) (setq enable-local-eval t) (find-file todo-file) Still I don't get the org-mode colors specified on local variables.. If I put the same sexp on my .emacs it works.. Any ideias? -- *"Do or do not. There is no try"* * **Yoda Master* -- *"Do or do not. There is no try"* * **Yoda Master*
