Hi,
I really like the most advanced (pure magic working ...) and easy way of
entering dates in org mode. When answering a phone call it's only a few
keystrokes to jump to the date and settle the appointment. However there
are some people thinking in weeks (iso-week). So when those friends call
it get's much more complicated. Currently when I would like to jump to
say week 46, I might find an old paper calendar or M-x
calendar-goto-iso-week.
How difficult would it be to
(a) add the current iso-week into the headline of the Week-View
(b) include magic jump to a certain week eg. *46 to jump to week 46
Thomas

For now I am adding the ISO week number to every date in the agenda, if this seems too cluttered we need to think of a different solution. > (b) include magic jump to a certain week eg. *46 to jump to week 46 I have just pushed the necessary changes into the git repo. Here is the user interface: Suport for ISO week dates (ISO 8601) ------------------------------------ Dates in the agenda now show the ISO week and day specification, in the form `W08 2', meaning Tuesday of week 2. The keys `d', `w', `m', and `y' in the agenda view now accept prefix arguments. Remember that in the agenda, you can directly type a prefix argument by typing a number, no need to press `C-u' first. The prefix argument may be used to jump directly to a specific day of the year, ISO week, month, or year, respectively. For example, `32 d' jumps to February 1st, `9 w' to ISO week number 9. When setting day, week, or month view, a year may be encoded in the prefix argument as well. For example, `200712 w' will jump to week 12 in 2007. If such a year specification has only one or two digits, it will be mapped to the interval 1938-2037. When entering a date at the date prompt, you may now also specify an ISO week. For example w4 Monday of week 4 fri w4 Friday of week 4 w4-5 Same as above 2012 w4 fri Friday of week 4 in 2012. 2012-W04-5 Same as above So far I have not activated the effect of `org-read-date-prefer-future' on this functionality, because it seemed too unpredictable for me (as I usually do not know which week I am in). I'd appreciate comments on this issue: Should `org-read-date-prefer-future' also push dates into the next year if the week you are entering has already passed in the current year? For consistency I guess this should be the case, but I cannot quite wrap my head around it. I hope but am not entirely convinced that this will behave sanely also during the first/last week of a year. Please test extensively and report back.

Hmmh, the view get a little busy, and I don't know about performance issues when iso weekdays are calculated for each day (speed is an issue on my N810). There's a lot of redundant information now.

There's a lot of redundant information now. Performance is not an issue, certainly not in comparison with the other stuff that is going on to compute the agenda. Yes, it is a bit crowded. I'll try to shift this to the heading. The alternative would be to list the week number only on Mondays. > > BTW: (format "%-9s %2d %s %4d %s" > dayname day monthname year weekstring))) > > > doesn't work as expected for German locale In what way does it not work? > >> I have just pushed the necessary changes into the git repo.
