Cool. I'll send something along to you when I package it up...
Well, Andrew,if you write an extension, I will put it into the CONTRIB directory of the distribution.- CarstenOn Jan 28, 2008, at 12:41 AM, Andrew Hyatt wrote:_______________________________________________Hi everyone,I use org-mode religiously these days. I blogged about my use here (http://technical-dresese.blogspot.com/2007/08/org-mode.html) (please excuse the fact that when I wrote this I didn't know about the existing org-mode functionality to jump to the current clock).I generally have a problem of integrating the work I do in the shell with the tasks in org-mode. Plus, I often need access to the shells at home I started from work. I thought I'd combine these problems into a little org-mode extension that ties screen and org-mode together, via ansi-term.For these to work, you have to load ansi-term, which my hack is based on.If there's enough interest, I'll make a real .el file out of this.The general idea is that you start a task in which all the work will take place in a shell. This usually is not a leaf-task for me, but usually the parent of a leaf task. From a task in your org-file, M-x ash-org-screen will prompt for the name of a session. Give it a name, and it will insert a link. Open the link at any time to go the screen session containing your work!It works pretty well for me. The only problem is that I often run emacs in a screen session itself, and I can never get scrolling to work right in screen-in-screen.(defun ash-org-screen-buffer-name (name)"Returns the buffer name corresponding to the screen name given."(concat "*screen " name "*"))(defun ash-org-screen-helper (name arg);; Pick the name of the new buffer.(let ((term-ansi-buffer-name (generate-new-buffer-name (ash-org-screen-buffer-name name))))(setq term-ansi-buffer-name(term-ansi-make-term term-ansi-buffer-name "/usr/bin/screen" nilarg name))(set-buffer term-ansi-buffer-name)(term-mode)(term-char-mode)(term-set-escape-char ?\C-x)term-ansi-buffer-name))(defun ash-org-screen (name)"Start a screen session with name"(interactive "MScreen name: ")(save-excursion(ash-org-screen-helper name "-S"))(insert-string (concat "[[screen:" name "]]")))And don't forget to add ("screen" . "elisp:(ash-org-goto-screen \"%s\")") to org-link-abbrev-alist.
