Fine, I'll build an #emacs pivot table package for #org-mode.

Possibly related: github.com/tbanel/orgaggregate , could always use an easier interface =)

@Sacha Chua This looks like it could solve my problem but I've already started down the rabbit hole.

haha, no worries, I'm sure your adventure will help you learn interesting things!

#cfw got an org-table import/export functionality. Just select the org-table and run M-x cfw-org-load. Analyse, sort, edit, filter your table in CFW. Then update the original org-table by M-x cfw-org-save.

If there was no original org-table (the table was created from scratch or from other source like CSV), the cfw-org-save places the exported table into the kill-ring. This way org pivottables can be generated from CFW.

#emacs




Me: I'm just going to specify these #org-mode table formulas so that they can be executed sequentially to update this whole table in a single pass.

org-mode: Hey bro, let me automatically sort those by position for you. You're welcome.

Me: πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

#emacs



Wrapping my brain around using #org-mode as a spreadsheet. Is there a way to pass a range of cells as a vector to a custom function? Ideally, I'd like to embed this function into the file itself. #emacs
in reply to Jonathan Lamothe

I like using org tables with org-babel like so:

#+NAME: test
| 1 | 4 |
| 2 | 5 |
| 3 | 6 |

#+begin src emacs-lisp :var test=test

(mapcar
'(lambda (r)
(mapcar '(lambda (x) (* x x)) r)) test)

#+end src

#+RESULTS:
| 1 | 16 |
| 4 | 25 |
| 9 | 36 |

@hajovonta You are correct. The ridiculous thing was that I had literally just looked it up. My brain does strange things sometimes.


Is it me or does #org-mode lack a way to filter the agenda view by priority? You can filter by pretty much everything else imaginable.
in reply to Jonathan Lamothe

From the agenda dispatcher, you'd choose "m" for match (which lets you search for all kinds of things or combos of things). Then type PRIORITY="A" or whatever.

in reply to Lea

@Lea This works, but is not really what I'm looking for (It also seems hang for quite some time).

I'm looking for it in the format presented in agenda view you get in mode a (in the weekly agenda view).

@Lea
in reply to Jonathan Lamothe

You can use > or < as well. But remember that "A" is less than "B", it doesn't consider A greater than B just because you think of it as meaning higher priority.
in reply to Jonathan Lamothe

Then you need to define a custom view as taught in the manual.
in reply to Jonathan Lamothe

I bet someone has written an extension for that 17 years ago or something. πŸ˜‚

Today I somehow fumbled an #org-mode keyboard command and made a file into an attachment on itself. I didn't know that was possible.

Fortunately, revision control came to the rescue.

#emacs #git



Is there a way to tell #Emacs #org-mode to omit yhe TOC and headline numbers when exporting to a text or markdown file? I'm trying to implement a #JohnnyDecimal system, so I'm supplying my own numbers and the 00.00-index.org file essentially is the table of contents.

Edit: Because not all replies federate, here's the solution I ended up with:

#+STARTUP: overview indent nonum
#+OPTIONS: toc:nil
in reply to Arjen

Since the manual doesn't include examples, it can be confusing as to how to actually use those settings. For this case, add the following line:

#+OPTIONS: toc:nil num:nil

It's been over a year now since my last blog post. #Today I started working on a new one about my adventures with #org-mode. As an experiment, I'm trying to compose the post itself in org-mode, and then export to HTML for the site.

Depending on how reasonable the resulting HTML ends up being, this might be my go-to method of composing blog posts going forward.



Does anyone know if #org-mode has a way to specify a repeating scheduled item in UTC time? I have a few of these, and don't want to have to adjust them all when the clock changes. #emacs

Maybe a answer : org-mode utc
in reply to lann

@lann This is close to what I'm looking for. Ideally, I'd like to be able to do something like set a property on a headline that says "treat everything in this subtree as UTC".
