11 Please send Org bug reports to mailto:emacs-orgmode@gnu.org.
15 ** Incompatible changes
16 *** ob-clojure will not auto prepend ~(ns ..)~ statement now
17 When tangling, user usually just want to tangle literally code instead
18 of prepend inserting a ~(ns ..)~ statement before source block
19 code. Now, when you have no ~:ns~ header argument specified, this
20 behavior will not happend automatically.
21 *** Change in behavior on exit from an Org edit buffer
22 Org will no longer attempt to restore the window configuration in the
23 frame to which the user returns after editing a source block with
24 ~org-edit-src-code~. Instead, the window configuration will remain as
26 *** Change default value for ~org-email-link-description-format~
28 When linking from a mail buffer, Org used to truncate the subject of
29 the message to 30 characters in order to build the description of the
30 link. This behavior was considered as too surprising. As
31 a consequence, Org no longer truncates subjects.
33 You can get the old behaviour back with the following:
35 : (setq org-email-link-description-format "Email %c: %.30s")
37 *** ~:file~ header argument no longer assume "file" ~:results~
39 The "file" ~:results~ value is now mandatory for a code block
40 returning a link to a file. The ~:file~ or ~:file-ext~ header
41 arguments no longer imply a "file" result is expected.
43 *** Plain numbers are hours in Column View mode
45 See [[git:3367ac9457]] for details.
47 *** All LaTeX preview backends use now xcolor
49 The dvipng backend was previously relying on fg and bg parameters to
50 be passed to the CLI. This didn't work when xcolor was directly or
51 indirectly used in the document (e.g. tkiz is a user of xcolor). Since
52 every other backend was already using xcolor to set fg and bg, the CLI
53 alternative was removed and there is no more a :use-xcolor options
54 since now it's implicitly always true.
57 *** Handle overlay specification for notes in Beamer export
59 This aligns Beamer notes with slide overlays.
61 *** Add a dispatcher command to insert dynamic blocks
63 You can add dynamic block into ~org-dynamic-block-alist~ with function
64 ~org-dynamic-block-define~. All dynamic blocks in
65 ~org-dynamic-block-define~ can be used by
66 ~org-dynamic-block-insert-dblock~ command.
69 **** Add LaTeX output support in PlantUML
70 *** New minor mode to display headline numbering
72 Use =<M-x org-num-mode>= to get a visual indication of the numbering
73 in the outline. The numbering is also automatically updated upon
74 changes in the buffer.
76 *** New property =HTML_HEADLINE_CLASS= in HTML export
77 The new property =HTML_HEADLINE_CLASS= assigns a class attribute to
79 *** Allow LaTeX attributes and captions for "table.el" tables
80 Supported LaTeX attributes are ~:float~, ~:center~, ~:font~ and
82 *** Attach buffer contents to headline
83 With =<b>= key from attachment dispatcher (=<C-c C-a>=), it is now
84 possible to write the contents of a buffer to a file in the headline
85 attachement directory.
86 *** iCalendar export respects a =CLASS= property
88 Set the =CLASS= property on an entry to specify a visibility class for
89 that entry only during iCalendar export. The property can be set to
90 anything the calendar server supports. The iCalendar standard defines
91 the values =PUBLIC=, =CONFIDENTIAL=, =PRIVATE=, which can be
92 interpreted as publicly visable, accessible to a specific group, and
95 This property can be inherited during iCalendar export, depending on
96 the value of ~org-use-property-inheritance~.
98 *** New parameter for =INCLUDE= keyword
99 Add =:coding CODING-SYSTEM= to include files using a different coding
100 system than the main Org document. For example:
103 ,#+INCLUDE: "myfile.cmd" src cmd :coding cp850-dos
106 *** New values in clock tables' step: =month= and =year=
107 *** ODT export handles numbers cookies in lists
108 *** New cell movement functions in tables
109 ~S-<UP>~, ~S-<DOWN>~, ~S-<RIGHT>~, and ~S-<LEFT>~ now move cells in
110 the corresponding direction by swapping with the adjacent cell.
111 *** New option to natively fontify LaTeX snippets and environments
112 A 'native option was added to org-highlight-latex-and-related. It
113 matches the same structures than 'latex but it calls
114 org-src-font-lock-fontify-block instead, thus bringing about full
116 *** ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~ learnt to shift backward in time
117 =<C-c C-x c>= (~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~) now takes a
118 negative value as a valid repeater to shift time stamps in backward
119 in cloned subtrees. You can give, for example, ‘-3d’ to shift three
123 *** ~org-dynamic-block-insert-dblock~
125 Use default keybinding =<C-c C-x x>= to run command
126 ~org-dynamic-block-insert-dblock~. It will prompt user to select
127 dynamic block in ~org-dynamic-block-alist~.
129 *** ~org-table-cell-up~
130 *** ~org-table-cell-down~
131 *** ~org-table-cell-left~
132 *** ~org-table-cell-right~
134 *** ~org-babel-set-current-result-hash~
136 It was unused throughout the code base.
139 *** No more special indentation for description items
141 Descriptions items are indented like regular ones, i.e., text starts
142 after the bullet. Special indentation used to introduce bugs when
143 inserting sub-items in a description list.
145 *** New hook: ~org-todo-repeat-hook~
146 This hook was actually introduced in Org 9.2.1, but wasn't advertised.
147 *** Org Table reads numbers starting with 0 as strings
148 *** Disable fast tag selection interface via prefix arg
150 A call of ~org-set-tags-command~ with prefix argument C-u C-u avoids
151 the fast tag selection interface and instead offers the plain
155 ** Incompatible changes
156 *** Removal of OrgStruct mode mode and radio lists
158 OrgStruct minor mode and radio lists mechanism (~org-list-send-list~
159 and ~org-list-radio-lists-templates~) are removed from the code base.
161 Note that only radio /lists/ have been removed, not radio tables.
163 If you want to manipulate lists like in Org in other modes, we suggest
164 to use orgalist.el, which you can install from GNU ELPA.
166 If you want to use Org folding outside of Org buffers, you can have a
167 look at the outshine package in the MELPA repository.
169 *** Change in the structure template expansion
171 Org 9.2 comes with a new template expansion mechanism, combining
172 ~org-insert-structure-template~ bound to ~C-c C-,~.
174 If you customized the ~org-structure-template-alist~ option manually,
175 you probably need to udpate it, see the docstring for accepted values.
177 If you prefer using previous patterns, e.g. =<s=, you can activate
178 them again by requiring Org Tempo library:
180 : (require 'org-tempo)
182 or add it to ~org-modules~.
184 If you need complex templates, look at the ~tempo-define-template~
185 function or at solutions like Yasnippet.
187 *** Change to Noweb expansion
189 Expansion check =:noweb-ref= only if no matching named block is found
190 in the buffer. As a consequence, any =:noweb-ref= value matching the
191 name of a source block in the buffer is ignored. A simple fix is to
192 give every concerned source-block, including the named one, a new,
193 unique, Noweb reference.
197 ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
201 ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb-ref foo
205 ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb yes
214 ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb-ref bar
218 ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb-ref bar
222 ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :noweb yes
227 *** Default/accepted values of ~org-calendar-to-agenda-key~
229 The default value and accepted value of ~org-calendar-to-agenda-key~
230 changed. This is an excerpt of the new docstring:
232 : When set to ‘default’, bind the function to ‘c’, but only if it is
233 : available in the Calendar keymap. This is the default choice because
234 : ‘c’ can then be used to switch back and forth between agenda and calendar.
236 : When nil, ‘org-calendar-goto-agenda’ is not bound to any key.
238 Check the full docstring for more.
240 *** Change the signature of the ~org-set-effort~ function
242 Here is the new docstring:
244 : (org-set-effort &optional INCREMENT VALUE)
246 : Set the effort property of the current entry.
247 : If INCREMENT is non-nil, set the property to the next allowed
248 : value. Otherwise, if optional argument VALUE is provided, use
249 : it. Eventually, prompt for the new value if none of the previous
252 *** Placeholders in =(eval ...)= macros are always strings
254 Within =(eval ...)= macros, =$1=-like placeholders are always replaced
255 with a string. As a consequence, they must not be enclosed within
256 quotes. As an illustration, consider the following, now valid,
260 ,#+macro: join (eval (concat $1 $2))
261 ,#+macro: sum (eval (+ (string-to-number $1) (string-to-number $2)))
263 {{{join(a,b)}}} => ab
267 However, there is no change in non-eval macros:
270 ,#+macro: disp argument: $1
272 {{{disp(text)}}} => argument: text
275 *** =align= STARTUP value no longer narrow table columns
277 Columns narrowing (or shrinking) is now dynamic. See [[*Dynamically
278 narrow table columns]] for details. In particular, it is decoupled from
281 If you need to automatically shrink columns upon opening an Org
282 document, use =shrink= value instead, or in addition to align:
285 ,#+STARTUP: align shrink
288 *** ~org-get-tags~ meaning change
290 Function ~org-get-tags~ used to return local tags to the current
291 headline. It now returns all the inherited tags in addition to the
292 local tags. In order to get the old behaviour back, you can use:
294 : (org-get-tags nil t)
296 *** Alphabetic sorting in tables and lists
298 When sorting alphabetically, ~org-table-sort-lines~ and ~org-sort-list~
299 now sort according to the locale’s collation rules instead of by
302 *** Change the name of the :tags clocktable option to :match
304 The =:match= (renamed from =:tags=) option allows to limit clock entries
305 to those matching a todo-tags matcher.
307 The old =:tags= option can be set to =t= to display a headline's tags in a
310 This is consistent with the naming of =org-dblock-write:columnview=
311 options, where =:match= is also used as a headlines filter.
314 *** Add ~:session~ support of ob-clojure for CIDER
315 You can initialize source block session with Babel default keybinding
316 =[C-c C-v C-z]= to use =sesman= session manager to link current
317 project, directory or buffer with specific Clojure session, or
318 =cider-jack-in= a new CIDER REPL if no CIDER REPLs available. In older
319 CIDER version which has not =sesman= integrated, only has
320 =cider-jack-in= without Clojure project is supported.
321 #+begin_src clojure :session
322 (dissoc Clojure 'JVM)
323 (conj clojurists "stardiviner")
325 *** Add ~:results link~ support for Babel
327 With this output format, create a link to the file specified in
328 ~:file~ header argument, without actually writing any result to it:
331 ,#+begin_src shell :dir "data/tmp" :results link :file "crackzor_1.0.c.gz"
332 wget -c "http://ben.akrin.com/crackzor/crackzor_1.0.c.gz"
336 [[file:data/tmp/crackzor_1.0.c.gz]]
339 *** Add ~:session~ support of ob-js for js-comint
340 #+begin_src js :session "*Javascript REPL*"
341 console.log("stardiviner")
343 *** Add ~:session~ support of ob-js for Indium
344 #+begin_src js :session "*JS REPL*"
345 console.log("stardiviner")
347 *** Add ~:session~ support of ob-js for skewer-mode
348 #+begin_src js :session "*skewer-repl*"
349 console.log("stardiviner")
351 *** Add support for links to LaTeX equations in HTML export
352 Use MathJax links when enabled (by ~org-html-with-latex~), otherwise
353 add a label to the rendered equation.
354 *** Org Tempo may used for snippet expansion of structure template.
355 See manual and the commentary section in ~org-tempo.el~ for details.
356 *** Exclude unnumbered headlines from table of contents
357 Set their =UNNUMBERED= property to the special =notoc= value. See
359 *** ~org-archive~ functions update status cookies
361 Archiving headers through ~org-archive-subtree~ and
362 ~org-archive-to-archive-sibling~ such as the ones listed below:
370 Will update the status cookie in the top level header.
372 *** Disable =org-agenda-overriding-header= by setting to empty string
374 The ~org-agenda-overriding-header~ inserted into agenda views can now
375 be disabled by setting it to an empty string.
377 *** Dynamically narrow table columns
379 With ~C-c TAB~, it is now possible to narrow a column to the width
380 specified by a width cookie in the column, or to 1 character if there
381 is no such cookie. The same keybinding expands a narrowed column to
384 Editing the column automatically expands the whole column to its full
387 *** =org-columns-summary-types= entries can take an optional COLLECT function
389 You can use this to make collection of a property from an entry
390 conditional on another entry. E.g. given this configuration:
392 #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
393 (defun custom/org-collect-confirmed (property)
394 "Return `PROPERTY' for `CONFIRMED' entries"
395 (let ((prop (org-entry-get nil property))
396 (confirmed (org-entry-get nil "CONFIRMED")))
397 (if (and prop (string= "[X]" confirmed))
401 (setq org-columns-summary-types
402 '(("X+" org-columns--summary-sum
403 custom/org-collect-confirmed)))
406 You can have a file =bananas.org= containing:
409 ,#+columns: %ITEM %CONFIRMED %Bananas{+} %Bananas(Confirmed Bananas){X+}
425 ... and when going to the top of that file and entering column view
426 you should expect to see something like:
428 | ITEM | CONFIRMED | Bananas | Confirmed Bananas |
429 |---------------+-----------+---------+-------------------|
430 | All shipments | | 11 | 4 |
431 | Shipment 1 | [X] | 4 | 4 |
432 | Shipment 2 | [ ] | 7 | 7 |
437 *** Allow to filter by tags/property when capturing colview
439 You can now use =:match= to filter entries using a todo/tags/properties
442 *** Add support for Oracle's database alias in Babel blocks
443 =ob-sql= library already support running SQL blocks against an Oracle
444 database using ~sqlplus~. Now it's possible to use alias names
445 defined in =TNSNAMES= file instead of specifying full connection
446 parameters. See example bellow.
449 you can use the previous full connection parameters
450 ,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine oracle :dbuser me :dbpassword my_insecure_password :database my_db_name :dbhost my_db_host :dbport 1521
451 select sysdate from dual;
454 or the alias defined in your TNSNAMES file
455 ,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine oracle :dbuser me :dbpassword my_insecure_password :database my_tns_alias
456 select sysdate from dual;
460 *** ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock~ toggle agenda restriction at point
462 You can set an agenda restriction lock with =C-x C-x <= or with =<= at the
463 beginning of a headline when using Org speed commands. Now, if there
464 is already a restriction at point, hitting =<= again (or =C-x C-x <=) will
467 *** Headlines can now link to themselves in HTML export
469 When enabling ~org-html-self-link-headlines~ the headlines exported to
470 HTML contain a hyperlink to themselves.
472 ** New commands and functions
474 *** ~org-insert-structure-template~
476 This function can be used to wrap existing text of Org elements in
477 a #+BEGIN_FOO/#+END_FOO block. Bound to C-c C-x w by default.
479 *** ~org-export-excluded-from-toc-p~
481 See docstring for details.
483 *** ~org-timestamp-to-time~
484 *** ~org-timestamp-from-string~
485 *** ~org-timestamp-from-time~
486 *** ~org-attach-dired-to-subtree~
488 See docstring for details.
490 *** ~org-toggle-narrow-to-subtree~
492 Toggle the narrowing state of the buffer: when in a narrowed state,
493 widen, otherwise call ~org-narrow-to-subtree~ to narrow.
495 This is attached to the "s" speed command, so that hitting "s" twice
496 will go back to the widen state.
498 *** ~org-browse-news~
500 Browse https://orgmode.org/Changes.html to let users read informations
501 about the last major release.
503 There is a new menu entry for this in the "Documentation" menu item.
505 *** ~org-info-find-node~
507 From an Org file or an agenda switch to a suitable info page depending
510 The function is bound to =C-c C-x I=.
512 ** Removed commands and functions
513 *** ~org-outline-overlay-data~
514 Use ~org-save-outline-visibility~ instead.
515 *** ~org-set-outline-overlay-data~
516 Use ~org-save-outline-visibility~ instead.
517 *** ~org-get-string-indentation~
518 It was not used throughout the code base.
519 *** ~org-fix-indentation~
520 It was not used throughout code base.
522 Use ~org-element-at-point~ instead.
523 *** ~org-preserve-lc~
524 It is no longer used in the code base.
525 *** ~org-try-structure-completion~
526 Org Tempo may be used as a replacement. See details above.
529 *** org-babel-use-quick-and-dirty-noweb-expansion
531 See [[*Change to Noweb expansion][Change to Noweb expansion]] for explanations.
535 *** New default value for ~org-texinfo-table-scientific-notation~
537 It is now nil, which means numbers in scientific notation are not
538 handled specially by default.
540 *** New default value for ~org-latex-table-scientific-notation~
542 It is now nil, which means numbers in scientific notation are not
543 handled specially by default.
545 *** New face: ~org-upcoming-distant-deadline~
547 It is meant to be used as the face for distant deadlines, see
548 ~org-agenda-deadline-faces~
550 *** ~org-paste-subtree~ no longer breaks sections
552 Unless point is at the beginning of a headline, ~org-paste-subtree~
553 now pastes the tree before the next visible headline. If you need to
554 break the section, use ~org-yank~ instead.
556 *** ~org-table-insert-column~ inserts a column to the right
558 It used to insert it on the left. With this change,
559 ~org-table-insert-column~ and ~org-table-delete-column~ are
562 *** ~org-publish-resolve-external-link~ accepts a new optional argument.
563 *** ~org-irc.el~ now supports exporting =irc:= links properly
565 Previously, irc links were exported by ~ox-md~ and ~ox-html~ as normal
566 file links, which lead to them being broken in web browsers. Now both
567 of these exporters will properly export to =irc:= links, which will
568 open properly in irc clients from web browsers.
570 *** ~org-comment-dwim~ (bound to =M-;=) now comments headings, if point is on a heading
571 *** Add support for open source block in window below
573 Set option ~org-src-window-setup~ to ~split-window-below~.
575 *** Alphabetic sorting in headings and tags now uses the locale’s sorting rules
577 When sorting alphabetically, ~org-sort-entries~ and
578 ~org-tags-sort-function~ now sort according to the locale’s collation
579 rules instead of by code-point.
580 *** New speed command "k" to kill (cut) the subtree at point
583 ** Incompatible changes
585 *** Variables relative to clocksum duration are obsolete
587 ~org-time-clocksum-format~, ~org-time-clocksum-use-fractional~ and
588 ~org-time-clocksum-fractional-format~ are obsolete. If you changed
589 them, consider modifying ~org-duration-format~ instead.
591 Variable ~org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations~ is also obsolete.
592 Consider setting ~org-duration-units~ instead.
594 *** ~org-at-timestamp-p~ optional argument accepts different values
596 See docstrings for the allowed values. For backward compatibility,
597 ~(org-at-timestamp-p t)~ is still supported, but should be updated
600 *** ~org-capture-templates~ no longer accepts S-expressions as file names
602 Since functions are allowed there, a straightforward way to migrate
609 : (file (lambda () (sexp)))
611 *** Deleted contributed packages
613 =org-ebib.el, =org-bullets.el= and =org-mime.el= have been deleted
614 from the contrib/ directory.
616 You can now find them here :
618 - https://github.com/joostkremers/ebib
619 - https://github.com/sabof/org-bullets
620 - https://github.com/org-mime/org-mime
622 *** Change ~org-texinfo-classes~ value
623 The value cannot support functions to create sectioning commands
624 anymore. Also, the sectioning commands should include commands for
625 appendices. See the docstring for more information.
626 *** Removal of ~:sitemap-sans-extension~
628 The publishing property is no longer recognized, as a consequence of
629 changes to site-map generation.
631 You can get the same functionality by setting ~:sitemap-format-entry~
635 (lambda (entry style project)
636 (cond ((not (directory-name-p entry))
637 (format "[[file:%s][%s]]"
638 (file-name-sans-extension entry)
639 (org-publish-find-title entry project)))
640 ((eq style 'tree) (file-name-nondirectory (directory-file-name entry)))
644 *** Change signature for ~:sitemap-function~
646 ~:sitemap-function~ now expects to be called with two arguments. See
647 ~org-publish-project-alist~ for details.
649 *** Change signature for some properties in ~org-list-to-generic~
651 ~:istart~, ~:icount~, ~:iend~ and ~:isep~ now expect the type of the
652 list as their first argument.
654 *** Change signature for ~org-get-repeater~
655 The optional argument is now a string to extract the repeater from.
656 See docstring for details.
658 *** Change signature for ~org-time-string-to-time~
659 See docstring for changes.
661 *** Change order of items in ~org-agenda-time-grid~
662 ~org-agenda-time-grid~ gained an extra item to allow users to customize
663 the string displayed after times in the agenda. See docstring for
666 *** ~tags-todo~ custom searches now include DONE keywords
668 Use "/!" markup when filtering TODO keywords to get only not-done TODO
671 *** ~org-split-string~ returns ~("")~ when called on an empty string
672 It used to return nil.
673 *** Removal of =ob-scala.el=
675 See [[https://github.com/ensime/emacs-scala-mode/issues/114][this github issue]].
677 You can use =ob-scala.el= as packaged in scala-mode, available from the
681 *** iCalendar export uses inheritance for TIMEZONE and LOCATION properties
682 Both these properties can be inherited during iCalendar export,
683 depending on the value of ~org-use-property-inheritance~.
684 *** iCalendar export respects a TIMEZONE property
685 Set the TIMEZONE property on an entry to specify a time zone for that
686 entry only during iCalendar export. The property value should be
687 specified as in "Europe/London".
688 *** ~org-attach~ can move directory contents
689 When setting a new directory for an entry, org-attach offers to move
690 files over from the old directory. Using a prefix arg will reset the
691 directory to old, ID based one.
692 *** New Org duration library
693 This new library implements tools to read and print time durations in
694 various formats (e.g., "H:MM", or "1d 2h 3min"...).
696 See ~org-duration-to-minutes~ and ~org-duration-from-minutes~
700 **** New variable : ~org-agenda-show-future-repeats~
701 **** New variable : ~org-agenda-prefer-last-repeat~
702 **** New variable : ~org-deadline-past-days~
703 See docstring for details.
704 **** Binding C-c C-x < for ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock-from-agenda~
705 **** New auto-align default setting for =org-agenda-tags-column=
707 =org-agenda-tags-column= can now be set to =auto=, which will
708 automatically align tags to the right edge of the window. This is now
710 *** New value for ~org-publish-sitemap-sort-folders~
712 The new ~ignore~ value effectively allows toggling inclusion of
713 directories in published site-maps.
717 **** Scheme: support for tables
718 **** Scheme: new variable: ~org-babel-scheme-null-to~
720 This new custom option allows you to use an empty list or null symbol to
721 format the table output, initially assigned to ~hlines~.
723 **** Scheme: new header ~:prologue~
725 A new block code header has been created for Org Babel that enables
726 developers to prepend code to the scheme block being processed.
728 Multiple ~:prologue~ headers can be added each of them using a string
729 with the content to be added.
731 The scheme blocks are prepared by surrounding the code in the block
732 with a let form. The content of the ~:prologue~ headers are prepended
733 before this let form.
735 **** Support for hledger accounting reports added
736 **** Clojure: new setting ~org-babel-clojure-sync-nrepl-timeout~
738 Creation of a new setting to specify the Cider timeout. By setting
739 the =org-babel-clojure-sync-nrepl-timeout= setting option. The value
740 is in seconds and if set to =nil= then no timeout will occur.
741 **** Clojure: new header ~:show-process~
743 A new block code header has been created for Org Babel that enables
744 developers to output the process of an ongoing process into a new
747 You can tell Org Babel to output the process of a running code block.
749 To show that output you only have to specify the =:show-process=
750 option in the code block's header like this:
753 ,#+BEGIN_SRC clojure :results output :show-process t
760 If =:show-process= is specified that way, then when you will run the
761 code using =C-c C-c= a new window will open in Emacs. Everything that
762 is output by the REPL will immediately be added to that new window.
764 When the processing of the code is finished, then the window and its
765 buffer will be closed and the results will be reported in the
768 Note that the =:results= parameter's behavior is *not* changed. If
769 =silent= is specified, then no result will be displayed. If =output=
770 is specified then all the output from the window will appears in the
771 results section. If =value= is specified, then only the last returned
772 value of the code will be displayed in the results section.
774 **** Maxima: new headers ~:prologue~ and ~:epilogue~
775 Babel options ~:prologue~ and ~:epilogue~ have been implemented for
776 Maxima source blocks which prepend and append, respectively, the given
777 code strings. This can be useful for specifying formatting settings
778 which would add clutter to exported code. For instance, you can use
779 this ~:prologue "fpprintprec: 2; linel: 50;"~ for presenting Maxima
780 results in a beamer presentation.
781 **** PlantUML: add support for header arguments
783 [[http://plantuml.com/][Plantuml]] source blocks now support the [[https://orgmode.org/manual/prologue.html#prologue][~:prologue~]], [[https://orgmode.org/manual/epilogue.html#epilogue][~:epilogue~]] and
784 [[https://orgmode.org/manual/var.html#var][~:var~]] header arguments.
786 **** SQL: new engine added ~sqsh~
788 A new engine was added to support ~sqsh~ command line utility for use
789 against Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase SQL server.
791 More information on ~sqsh~ can be found here: [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/sqsh/][sourceforge/sqsh]]
793 To use ~sqsh~ in an *sql* =SRC_BLK= set the =:engine= like this:
796 ,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine sqsh :dbhost my_host :dbuser master :dbpassword pass :database support
802 **** SQL: new engine added =vertica=
804 A new engine was added to support vsql command line utility for use
807 More information on =vsql= can be found here: [[https://my.vertica.com/docs/7.2.x/HTML/index.htm#Authoring/ConnectingToHPVertica/vsql/UsingVsql.htm][my.vertica.com]]
809 To use =vertica= in an sql =SRC_BLK= set the =:engine= like this:
812 ,#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine vertica :dbhost my_host :dbuser dbadmin :dbpassword pw :database vmart
816 **** C++: New header ~:namespaces~
818 The new ~:namespaces~ export option can be used to specify namespaces
819 to be used within a C++ org source block. Its usage is similar to
820 ~:includes~, in that it can accept multiple, space-separated
821 namespaces to use. This header is equivalent to adding ~using
822 namespace <name>;~ in the source block. Here is a "Hello World" in C++
826 ,#+BEGIN_SRC C++ :results output :namespaces std :includes <iostream>
827 cout << "Hello World" << endl;
831 **** Support for Vala language
833 [[https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Vala][Vala]] language blocks support two special header arguments:
835 - ~:flags~ passes arguments to the compiler
836 - ~:cmdline~ passes commandline arguments to the generated executable
838 Support for [[https://orgmode.org/manual/var.html#var][~:var~]] does not exist yet, also there is no [[https://orgmode.org/manual/session.html#session][~:session~]]
839 support because Vala is a compiled language.
841 The Vala compiler binary can be changed via the ~defcustom~
842 ~org-babel-vala-compiler~.
844 *** New ~function~ scope argument for the Clock Table
845 Added a nullary function that returns a list of files as a possible
846 argument for the scope of the clock table.
848 **** Implement vernacular table of contents in Markdown exporter
849 Global table of contents are generated using vanilla Markdown syntax
850 instead of HTML. Also #+TOC keyword, including local table of
851 contents, are now supported.
852 **** Add Slovenian translations
853 **** Implement ~org-export-insert-image-links~
854 This new function is meant to be used in back-ends supporting images
855 as descriptions of links, a.k.a. image links. See its docstring for
857 **** New macro : ~{{{n}}}~
858 This macro creates and increment multiple counters in a document. See
860 **** Add global macros through ~org-export-global-macros~
861 With this variable, one can define macros available for all documents.
862 **** New keyword ~#+EXPORT_FILE_NAME~
863 Similarly to ~:EXPORT_FILE_NAME:~ property, this keyword allows the
864 user to specify the name of the output file upon exporting the
865 document. This also has an effect on publishing.
866 **** Horizontal rules are no longer ignored in LaTeX table math mode
867 **** Use ~compilation-mode~ for compilation output
868 **** Plain lists accept a new ~:separator~ attribute in Texinfo
870 The new ~:separator~ attribute splits a tag from a description list
871 item into multiple parts. This allows to have two-column tables with
872 multiple entries in the first column. See manual for more details.
874 **** ~latex-environment~ elements support ~caption~ keywords for LaTeX export
875 *** ~org-edit-special~ can edit LaTeX environments
877 Using ~C-c '~ on a LaTeX environment opens a sub-editing buffer. By
878 default, major mode in that buffer is ~latex-mode~, but it can be
879 changed by configuring ~org-src-lang-modes~.
881 *** ~org-list-to-generic~ includes a new property: ~:ifmt~
883 ~:ifmt~ is a function to be called on the body of each item. See
884 ~org-list-to-generic~ documentation for details.
886 *** New variable : ~org-bibtex-headline-format-function~
887 This allow to use a different title than entry title.
889 *** ~org-attach~ supports attaching files from URLs
891 Using ~C-c C-a u~ prompts for a URL pointing to a file to be attached
894 *** New option for ~org-refile-use-outline-path~
895 ~org-refile-use-outline-path~ now supports the setting ~buffer-name~,
896 which causes refile targets to be prefixed with the buffer’s
897 name. This is particularly useful when used in conjunction with
900 *** ~org-file-contents~ now allows the FILE argument to be a URL.
901 This allows ~#+SETUPFILE:~ to accept a URL instead of a local file
902 path. The URL contents are auto-downloaded and saved to a temporary
903 cache ~org--file-cache~. A new optional argument ~NOCACHE~ is added
904 to ~org-file-contents~.
906 *** ~org-mode-restart~ now resets the newly added ~org--file-cache~.
907 Using ~C-c C-c~ on any keyword (like ~#+SETUPFILE~) will reset the
910 *** New option : ~org-table-duration-hour-zero-padding~
911 This variable allow computed durations in tables to be zero-padded.
913 *** New mode switch for table formulas : =U=
914 This mode omits seconds in durations.
920 This feature has been removed. Use a custom agenda view, possibly
921 narrowed to current buffer to achieve a similar functionality.
923 *** ~org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches~ is obsolete
925 Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead.
927 *** ~org-agenda-skip-subtree-when-regexp-matches~ is obsolete
929 Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead.
931 *** ~org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches-in-subtree~ is obsolete
933 Use ~org-agenda-skip-if~ instead.
935 *** ~org-minutes-to-clocksum-string~ is obsolete
937 Use ~org-duration-from-minutes~ instead.
939 *** ~org-hh:mm-string-to-minutes~ is obsolete
941 Use ~org-duration-to-minutes~ instead.
943 *** ~org-duration-string-to-minutes~ is obsolete
945 Use ~org-duration-to-minutes~ instead.
947 *** ~org-gnus-nnimap-cached-article-number~ is removed.
949 This function relied on ~nnimap-group-overview-filename~, which was
950 removed from Gnus circa September 2010.
954 *** ~org-agenda-repeating-timestamp-show-all~ is removed.
956 For an equivalent to a ~nil~ value, set
957 ~org-agenda-show-future-repeats~ to nil and
958 ~org-agenda-prefer-last-repeat~ to ~t~.
960 *** ~org-gnus-nnimap-query-article-no-from-file~ is removed.
962 This variable has no effect, as it was relying on a function that was
963 removed from Gnus circa September 2010.
965 *** ~org-usenet-links-prefer-google~ is obsolete.
967 Use ~org-gnus-prefer-web-links~ instead.
969 *** ~org-publish-sitemap-file-entry-format~ is deprecated
971 One can provide new ~:sitemap-format-entry~ property for a function
972 equivalent to the removed format string.
974 *** ~org-enable-table-editor~ is removed.
976 Setting it to a ~nil~ value broke some other features (e.g., speed
979 *** ~org-export-use-babel~ cannot be set to ~inline-only~
981 The variable is now a boolean.
983 *** ~org-texinfo-def-table-markup~ is obsolete
985 Use ~org-texinfo-table-default-markup~ instead.
989 *** ~org-publish-find-property~
991 This function can be used as a tool to format entries in a site-map,
992 in addition to ~org-publish-find-title~ and ~org-publish-find-date~.
994 *** ~org-list-to-org~
996 It is the reciprocal of ~org-list-to-lisp~, which see.
998 *** ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock-from-agenda~
1000 Call ~org-agenda-set-restriction-lock~ from the agenda.
1004 *** The Library of Babel now on Worg
1006 The library-of-babel.org used to be accessible from the =doc/=
1007 directory, distributed with Org’s core. It is now accessible
1008 from the Worg community-driven documentation [[https://orgmode.org/worg/library-of-babel.html][here]].
1010 If you want to contribute to it, please see [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html][how to contribute]].
1012 *** Allow multiple columns view
1014 Columns view is not limited to a single buffer anymore.
1015 *** Org Attach obeys ~dired-dwim-target~
1017 When a Dired buffer is opened next to the Org document being edited,
1018 the prompt for file to attach can start in the Dired buffer's
1019 directory if `dired-dwim-target' in non-nil.
1021 *** ~org-fill-paragraph~ can now fill a whole region
1022 *** More specific anniversary descriptions
1024 Anniversary descriptions (used in the agenda view, for instance)
1025 include the point in time, when the anniversary appears. This is,
1026 in its most general form, just the date of the anniversary. Or
1027 more specific terms, like "today", "tomorrow" or "in n days" are
1028 used to describe the time span.
1030 This feature allows to automatically change the description of an
1031 anniversary, depending on if it occurs in the next few days or
1032 far away in the future.
1034 *** Computed dates in tables appear as inactive time stamps
1036 *** Save point before opening a file with an unknown search option
1038 When following a file link with a search option (e.g., =::#custom-id=)
1039 that doesn't exist in the target file, save position before raising an
1040 error. As a consequence, it is possible to jump back to the original
1041 document with ~org-mark-ring-goto~ (default binding =C-c &=).
1043 *** ~org-get-heading~ accepts two more optional arguments
1045 See docstring for details.
1047 *** New option ~org-babel-uppercase-example-markers~
1049 This variable is a ~defcustom~ and replaces the variable
1050 ~org-babel-capitalize-example-region-markers~, which is a ~defvar~ and
1052 *** =INCLUDE= keywords in commented trees are now ignored.
1053 *** Default value for ~org-texinfo-text-markup-alist~ changed.
1055 Now ~=...=~ markup uses ~@samp{}~ instead of ~@verb{}~. You can use
1056 ~@verb{}~ again by customizing the variable.
1057 *** Texinfo exports example blocks as ~@example~
1058 *** Texinfo exports inline source blocks as ~@code{}~
1059 *** Texinfo default table markup is ~@asis~
1060 It used to be ~@samp~ but ~@asis~ is neutral and, therefore, more
1061 suitable as a default value.
1062 *** Texinfo default process includes ~--no-split~ option
1063 *** New entities : ~\dollar~ and ~\USD~
1064 *** Support for date style URLs in =org-protocol://open-source=
1065 URLs like =https://cool-blog.com/2017/05/20/cool-post/= are
1066 covered by rewrite rules.
1068 *** Add (C) =COMMENT= support to ~org-structure-template-alist~
1072 ** Incompatible changes
1074 *** Emacs 23 support has been dropped
1076 From now on, Org expects at least Emacs 24.3, although Emacs 24.4 or
1079 *** XEmacs support has been dropped
1081 Incomplete compatibility layer with XEmacs has been removed. If you
1082 want to take over maintenance of this compatibility, please contact
1085 *** New syntax for export blocks
1087 Export blocks are explicitly marked as such at the syntax level to
1088 disambiguate their parsing from special blocks. The new syntax is
1091 ,#+BEGIN_EXPORT backend
1104 As a consequence, =INCLUDE= keywords syntax is modified, e.g.,
1107 ,#+INCLUDE: "file.org" HTML
1113 ,#+INCLUDE: "file.org" export html
1116 The following function repairs export blocks and =INCLUDE= keywords
1117 using previous syntax:
1119 #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
1120 (defun org-repair-export-blocks ()
1121 "Repair export blocks and INCLUDE keywords in current buffer."
1123 (when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
1124 (let ((case-fold-search t)
1125 (back-end-re (regexp-opt
1126 '("HTML" "ASCII" "LATEX" "ODT" "MARKDOWN" "MD" "ORG"
1127 "MAN" "BEAMER" "TEXINFO" "GROFF" "KOMA-LETTER")
1129 (org-with-wide-buffer
1130 (goto-char (point-min))
1131 (let ((block-re (concat "^[ \t]*#\\+BEGIN_" back-end-re)))
1133 (while (re-search-forward block-re nil t)
1134 (let ((element (save-match-data (org-element-at-point))))
1135 (when (eq (org-element-type element) 'special-block)
1137 (goto-char (org-element-property :end element))
1138 (save-match-data (search-backward "_"))
1141 (delete-region (point) (line-end-position)))
1142 (replace-match "EXPORT \\1" nil nil nil 1))))))
1144 (format "^[ \t]*#\\+INCLUDE: .*?%s[ \t]*$" back-end-re)))
1145 (while (re-search-forward include-re nil t)
1146 (let ((element (save-match-data (org-element-at-point))))
1147 (when (and (eq (org-element-type element) 'keyword)
1148 (string= (org-element-property :key element) "INCLUDE"))
1149 (replace-match "EXPORT \\1" nil nil nil 1)))))))))
1152 Moreover, ~:export-block~ keyword used in ~org-export-define-backend~ and
1153 ~org-export-define-derived-backend~ is no longer used and needs to be
1158 **** [1]-like constructs are not valid footnotes
1160 Using =[1]= as a footnote was already discouraged in the manual, since
1161 it introduced too many false-positives in many Org documents. These
1162 constructs are now unsupported.
1164 If you used =[N]= in some of your documents, consider turning them into
1167 **** /Org Footnote/ library doesn't handle non-Org buffers
1169 Commands for footnotes in an Org document no longer try to do
1170 something in non-Org ones. If you need to have footnotes there,
1171 consider using the =footnote.el= library, shipped with Emacs.
1173 In particular, ~org-footnote-tag-for-non-org-mode-files~ no longer
1176 *** ~org-file-apps~ no longer accepts S-expressions as commands
1178 The variable now accepts functions of two arguments instead of plain
1179 S-expressions. Replacing an S-expression with an appropriate function
1180 is straightforward. For example
1186 : ("pdf" . (lambda (file link) (foo)))
1188 *** The ~{{{modification-time}}}~ macro can get time via =vc=
1190 The modification time will be determined via =vc.el= if the second
1191 argument is non-nil. See the manual for details.
1193 *** Preparation and completion functions in publishing projects change signature
1195 Preparation and completion functions are now called with an argument,
1196 which is the project property list. It used to be dynamically scoped
1197 through the ~project-plist~ variable.
1199 *** Old Babel header properties are no longer supported
1201 Using header arguments as property names is no longer possible. As
1213 should be written instead
1218 :header-args: :exports code
1219 :header-args+: :var a=1 b=2
1220 :header-args+: :var c=3
1224 Please note that, however, old properties were defined at the source
1225 block definition. Current ones are defined where the block is called.
1229 *** ~org-eww~ has been moved into core
1230 *** New org-protocol key=value syntax
1232 Org-protocol can now handle query-style parameters such as:
1235 org-protocol://store-link?url=http:%2F%2Flocalhost%2Findex.html&title=The%20title
1236 org-protocol://capture?template=x&title=Hello&body=World&url=http:%2F%2Fexample.com
1239 Old-style links such as
1240 : org-protocol://store-link:/http:%2F%2Flocalhost%2Findex.html/The%20title
1241 continue to be supported.
1243 If you have defined your own handler functions for
1244 ~org-protocol-protocol-alist~, change them to accept either a property
1245 list (for new-style links) or a string (for old-style links). Use
1246 ~org-protocol-parse-parameters~ to convert old-style links into property
1249 *** New Org linter library
1251 ~org-lint~ can check syntax and report common issues in Org documents.
1253 *** New option ~date-tree-last~ for ~org-agenda-insert-diary-strategy~
1255 When ~org-agenda-insert-diary-strategy~ is set to ~date-tree-last~, diary
1256 entries are added to last in the date tree.
1258 *** New ~vbar~ entity
1260 ~\vbar~ or ~\vbar{}~ will be exported unconditionally as a =|=,
1261 unlike to existing ~\vert~, which is expanded as ~|~ when using
1262 a HTML derived export back-end.
1266 **** New =#+latex_compiler= keyword to set LaTeX compiler.
1268 PDFLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and LuaLaTeX are supported. See the manual for
1271 **** New option ~org-export-with-broken-links~
1273 This option tells the export process how to behave when encountering
1274 a broken internal link. See its docstring for more information.
1276 **** Attributes support in custom language environments for LaTeX export
1278 Custom language environments for LaTeX export can now define the
1279 string to be inserted during export, using attributes to indicate the
1280 position of the elements. See variable ~org-latex-custom-lang-environments~
1283 **** New Texinfo ~options~ attribute on special blocks
1285 Using ~:options~ as a Texinfo attribute, it is possible to add
1286 information to custom environments. See manual for details.
1288 **** New HTML ~id~ attributes on special, example and quote blocks
1290 If the block has a =#+NAME:= attribute assigned, then the HTML element
1291 will have an ~id~ attribute with that name in the HTML export. This
1292 enables one to create links to these elements in other places, e.g.,
1293 ~<a href="#name">text</a>~.
1295 **** Listings with captions are now numbered in HTML export
1297 The class associated to the numbering is "listing-number". If you
1298 don't want these blocks to be numbered, as it was the case until now,
1299 You may want to add ~.listing-number { display: none; }~ to the CSS
1302 **** Line Numbering in SRC/EXAMPLE blocks support arbitrary start number
1304 The ~-n~ option to ~SRC~ and ~EXAMPLE~ blocks can now take a numeric
1305 argument to specify the staring line number for the source or example
1306 block. The ~+n~ option can now take a numeric argument that will be
1307 added to the last line number from the previous block as the starting
1308 point for the SRC/EXAMPLE block.
1311 ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp -n 20
1312 ;; this will export with line number 20
1313 (message "This is line 21")
1315 ,#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp +n 10
1316 ;; This will be listed as line 31
1317 (message "This is line 32")
1321 **** Allow toggling center for images in LaTeX export
1323 With the global variable ~org-latex-images-centered~ or the local
1324 attribute ~:center~ it is now possible to center an image in LaTeX
1327 **** Default CSS class ~org-svg~ for SVG images in HTML export
1329 SVG images exported in HTML are now by default assigned a CSS class
1330 ~org-svg~ if no CSS class is specified with the ~:class~ attribute. By
1331 default, the CSS styling of class ~org-svg~ specifies an image width of
1332 90\thinsp{}% of the container the image.
1334 **** Markdown footnote export customization
1336 Variables ~org-md-footnotes-section~ and ~org-md-footnote-format~
1337 introduced for =ox-md.el=. Both new variables define template strings
1338 which can be used to customize the format of the exported footnotes
1339 section and individual footnotes, respectively.
1343 **** Blocks with coderefs labels can now be evaluated
1345 The labels are removed prior to evaluating the block.
1347 **** Support for Lua language
1348 **** Support for SLY in Lisp blocks
1350 See ~org-babel-lisp-eval-fn~ to activate it.
1352 **** Support for Stan language
1354 New ob-stan.el library.
1356 Evaluating a Stan block can produce two different results.
1358 1. Dump the source code contents to a file.
1360 This file can then be used as a variable in other blocks, which
1361 allows interfaces like RStan to use the model.
1363 2. Compile the contents to a model file.
1365 This provides access to the CmdStan interface. To use this, set
1366 ~org-babel-stan-cmdstan-directory~ and provide a ~:file~ argument
1367 that does not end in ".stan".
1369 For more information and usage examples, visit
1370 https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-stan.html
1372 **** Support for Oracle databases via ~sqlplus~
1374 =ob-sql= library supports running SQL blocks against an Oracle
1375 database using ~sqlplus~. Use with properties like this (all
1383 :database <database>
1384 :dbpassword <secret>
1387 **** Improved support to Microsoft SQL Server via ~sqlcmd~
1389 =ob-sql= library removes support to the ~msosql~ engine which uses the
1390 deprecated ~osql~ command line tool, and replaces it with ~mssql~
1391 engine which uses the ~sqlcmd~ command line tool. Use with properties
1398 :dbpassword <secret>
1399 :database <database>
1402 If you want to use the *trusted connection* feature, omit *both* the
1403 =dbuser= and =dbpassword= properties and add =cmdline -E= to the properties.
1405 If your Emacs is running in a Cygwin environment, the =ob-sql= library
1406 can pass the converted path to the =sqlcmd= tool.
1408 **** Improved support of header arguments for postgresql
1410 The postgresql engine in a sql code block supports now ~:dbport~ nd
1411 ~:dbpassword~ as header arguments.
1413 **** Support for additional plantuml output formats
1415 The support for output formats of [[http://plantuml.com/][plantuml]] has been extended to now
1425 - utxt :: ASCII art using unicode characters
1434 The output formats are determined by the file extension specified
1435 using the :file property, e.g.:
1437 #+begin_src plantuml :file diagram.png
1439 Alice -> Bob: Authentication Request
1440 Bob --> Alice: Authentication Response
1442 Alice -> Bob: Another authentication Request
1443 Alice <-- Bob: another authentication Response
1447 Please note that *pdf* *does not work out of the box* and needs additional
1448 setup in addition to plantuml. See [[http://plantuml.com/pdf.html]] for
1449 details and setup information.
1451 *** Rewrite of radio lists
1453 Radio lists, i.e, Org plain lists in foreign buffers, have been
1454 rewritten to be on par with Radio tables. You can use a large set of
1455 parameters to control how a given list should be rendered. See manual
1458 *** org-bbdb-anniversaries-future
1460 Used like ~org-bbdb-anniversaries~, it provides a few days warning for
1461 upcoming anniversaries (default: 7 days).
1463 *** Clear non-repeated SCHEDULED upon repeating a task
1465 If the task is repeated, and therefore done at least one, scheduling
1466 information is no longer relevant. It is therefore removed.
1468 See [[git:481719fbd5751aaa9c672b762cb43aea8ee986b0][commit message]] for more information.
1470 *** Support for ISO week trees
1472 ISO week trees are an alternative date tree format that orders entries
1473 by ISO week and not by month.
1480 : *** 2015-08-31 Monday
1482 They are supported in org-capture via ~file+weektree~ and
1483 ~file+weektree+prompt~ target specifications.
1485 *** Accept ~:indent~ parameter when capturing column view
1487 When defining a "columnview" dynamic block, it is now possible to add
1488 an :indent parameter, much like the one in the clock table.
1490 On the other hand, stars no longer appear in an ITEM field.
1494 **** ~org-columns~ accepts a prefix argument
1496 When called with a prefix argument, ~org-columns~ apply to the whole
1497 buffer unconditionally.
1499 **** New variable : ~org-agenda-view-columns-initially~
1501 The variable used to be a ~defvar~, it is now a ~defcustom~.
1503 **** Allow custom summaries
1505 It is now possible to add new summary types, or override those
1506 provided by Org by customizing ~org-columns-summary-types~, which see.
1508 **** Allow multiple summaries for any property
1510 Columns can now summarize the same property using different summary
1513 *** Preview LaTeX snippets in buffers not visiting files
1514 *** New option ~org-attach-commit~
1516 When non-nil, commit attachments with git, assuming the document is in
1519 *** Allow conditional case-fold searches in ~org-occur~
1521 When set to ~smart~, the new variable ~org-occur-case-fold-search~ allows
1522 to mimic =isearch.el=: if the regexp searched contains any upper case
1523 character (or character class), the search is case sensitive.
1524 Otherwise, it is case insensitive.
1526 *** More robust repeated =ox-latex= footnote handling
1528 Repeated footnotes are now numbered by referring to a label in the
1531 *** The ~org-block~ face is inherited by ~src-blocks~
1533 This works also when =org-src-fontify-natively= is non-nil. It is also
1534 possible to specify per-languages faces. See =org-src-block-faces= and
1535 the manual for details.
1537 *** Links are now customizable
1539 Links can now have custom colors, tooltips, keymaps, display behavior,
1540 etc. Links are now centralized in ~org-link-parameters~.
1544 *** ~org-next-line-empty-p~
1546 It replaces the deprecated ~next~ argument to ~org-previous-line-empty-p~.
1548 *** ~org-show-children~
1550 It is a faster implementation of ~outline-show-children~.
1552 ** Removed functions
1554 *** ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag-refine~ has been removed.
1556 Use ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~ instead.
1558 *** ~org-agenda-todayp~ is deprecated.
1560 Use ~org-agenda-today-p~ instead.
1562 *** ~org-babel-get-header~ is removed.
1564 Use ~org-babel--get-vars~ or ~assq~ instead, as applicable.
1566 *** ~org-babel-trim~ is deprecated.
1568 Use ~org-trim~ instead.
1570 *** ~org-element-remove-indentation~ is deprecated.
1572 Use ~org-remove-indentation~ instead.
1574 *** ~org-image-file-name-regexp~ is deprecated
1576 Use ~image-file-name-regexp~ instead.
1577 The never-used-in-core ~extensions~ argument has been dropped.
1579 *** ~org-list-parse-list~ is deprecated
1581 Use ~org-list-to-lisp~ instead.
1583 *** ~org-on-heading-p~ is deprecated
1585 A comment to this effect was in the source code since 7.8.03, but
1586 now a byte-compiler warning will be generated as well.
1588 *** ~org-table-p~ is deprecated
1590 Use ~org-at-table-p~ instead.
1592 *** ~org-table-recognize-table.el~ is deprecated
1594 It was not called by any org code since 2010.
1596 *** Various reimplementations of cl-lib functions are deprecated
1598 The affected functions are:
1601 - ~org-remove-if-not~
1606 Additionally, ~org-sublist~ is deprecated in favor of ~cl-subseq~. Note
1607 the differences in indexing conventions: ~org-sublist~ is 1-based and
1608 end-inclusive; ~cl-subseq~ is 0-based and end-exclusive.
1612 *** Remove all options related to ~ido~ or ~iswitchb~
1614 This includes ~org-completion-use-iswitchb~ and ~org-completion-use-ido~.
1615 Instead Org uses regular functions, e.g., ~completion-read~ so as to
1616 let those libraries operate.
1618 *** Remove ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~
1620 Two consecutive blank lines always terminate all levels of current
1623 *** ~fixltx2e~ is removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~
1625 fixltx2e is obsolete, see LaTeX News 22.
1628 *** Add Icelandic smart quotes
1629 *** Allow multiple receiver locations in radio tables and lists
1630 *** Allow angular links within link descriptions
1632 It is now allowed to write, e.g.,
1633 ~[[http:orgmode.org][<file:unicorn.png>]]~ as an equivalent to
1634 ~[[http:orgmode.org][file:unicorn.png]]~. The advantage of the former
1635 is that spaces are allowed within the path.
1637 *** Beamer export back-ends uses ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~
1638 *** ~:preparation-function~ called earlier during publishing
1640 Functions in this list are called before any file is associated to the
1641 current project. Thus, they can be used to generate to be published
1644 *** Function ~org-remove-indentation~ changes.
1646 The new algorithm doesn't remove TAB characters not used for
1649 *** Secure placeholders in capture templates
1651 Placeholders in capture templates are no longer expanded recursively.
1652 However, ~%(...)~ constructs are expanded very late, so you can fill
1653 the contents of the S-exp with the replacement text of non-interactive
1654 placeholders. As before, interactive ones are still expanded as the
1655 very last step, so the previous statement doesn't apply to them.
1657 Note that only ~%(...)~ placeholders initially present in the
1658 template, or introduced using a file placeholder, i.e., ~%[...]~ are
1659 expanded. This prevents evaluating potentially malicious code when
1660 another placeholder, e.g., ~%i~ expands to a S-exp.
1662 *** Links stored by ~org-gnus-store-link~ in nnir groups
1664 Since gnus nnir groups are temporary, ~org-gnus-store-link~ now refers
1665 to the article's original group.
1667 *** ~org-babel-check-confirm-evaluate~ is now a function instead of a macro
1669 The calling convention has changed.
1671 *** HTML export table row customization changes
1673 Variable ~org-html-table-row-tags~ has been split into
1674 ~org-html-table-row-open-tag~ and ~org-html-table-row-close-tag~.
1675 Both new variables can be either a string or a function which will be
1676 called with 6 parameters.
1678 *** =ITEM= special property returns headline without stars
1679 *** Rename ~org-insert-columns-dblock~ into ~org-columns-insert-dblock~
1681 The previous name is, for the time being, kept as an obsolete alias.
1683 *** ~org-trim~ can preserve leading indentation.
1685 When setting a new optional argument to a non-nil value, ~org-trim~
1686 preserves leading indentation while removing blank lines at the
1687 beginning of the string. The behavior is identical for white space at
1688 the end of the string.
1690 *** Function ~org-info-export~ changes.
1692 HTML links created from certain info links now point to =gnu.org= URL's rather
1693 than just to local files. For example info links such as =info:emacs#List
1694 Buffers= used to be converted to HTML links like this:
1696 : <a href="emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a>
1698 where local file =emacs.html= is referenced.
1699 For most folks this file does not exist.
1700 Thus the new behavior is to generate this HTML link instead:
1702 : <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_mono/emacs.html#List-Buffers">emacs#List Buffers</a>
1704 All emacs related info links are similarly translated plus few other
1707 *** Repeaters with a ~++~ interval and a time can be shifted to later today
1709 Previously, if a recurring task had a timestamp of
1710 ~<2016-01-01 Fri 20:00 ++1d>~ and was completed on =2016-01-02= at
1711 =08:00=, the task would skip =2016-01-02= and would be rescheduled for
1712 =2016-01-03=. Timestamps with ~++~ cookies and a specific time will
1713 now shift to the first possible future occurrence, even if the
1714 occurrence is later the same day the task is completed. (Timestamps
1715 already in the future are still shifted one time further into the
1718 *** ~org-mobile-action-alist~ is now a defconst
1720 It used to be a defcustom, with a warning that it shouldn't be
1723 *** ~file+emacs~ and ~file+sys~ link types are deprecated
1725 They are still supported in Org 9.0 but will eventually be removed in
1726 a later release. Use ~file~ link type along with universal arguments
1727 to force opening it in either Emacs or with system application.
1729 *** New defcustom ~org-babel-J-command~ stores the j command
1730 *** New defalias ~org-babel-execute:j~
1732 Allows J source blocks be indicated by letter j. Previously the
1733 indication letter was solely J.
1735 *** ~org-open-line~ ignores tables at the very beginning of the buffer
1737 When ~org-special-ctrl-o~ is non-nil, it is impractical to create
1738 a blank line above a table at the beginning of the document. Now, as
1739 a special case, ~org-open-line~ behaves normally in this situation.
1741 *** ~org-babel-hash-show-time~ is now customizable
1743 The experimental variable used to be more or less confidential, as
1746 *** New ~:format~ property to parsed links
1748 It defines the format of the original link. Possible values are:
1749 ~plain~, ~bracket~ and ~angle~.
1753 ** Incompatible changes
1755 *** Properties drawers syntax changes
1757 Properties drawers are now required to be located right after a
1758 headline and its planning line, when applicable.
1760 It will break some documents as TODO states changes were sometimes
1761 logged before the property drawer.
1763 The following function will repair them:
1765 #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
1766 (defun org-repair-property-drawers ()
1767 "Fix properties drawers in current buffer.
1768 Ignore non Org buffers."
1769 (when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
1770 (org-with-wide-buffer
1771 (goto-char (point-min))
1772 (let ((case-fold-search t)
1773 (inline-re (and (featurep 'org-inlinetask)
1774 (concat (org-inlinetask-outline-regexp)
1778 (unless (and inline-re (org-looking-at-p inline-re))
1780 (let ((end (save-excursion (outline-next-heading) (point))))
1782 (when (org-looking-at-p org-planning-line-re) (forward-line))
1783 (when (and (< (point) end)
1784 (not (org-looking-at-p org-property-drawer-re))
1786 (and (re-search-forward org-property-drawer-re end t)
1787 (eq (org-element-type
1788 (save-match-data (org-element-at-point)))
1790 (insert (delete-and-extract-region
1792 (min (1+ (match-end 0)) end)))
1793 (unless (bolp) (insert "\n"))))))))))))
1796 *** Using "COMMENT" is now equivalent to commenting with "#"
1798 If you used "COMMENT" in headlines to prevent a subtree from being
1799 exported, you can still do it but all information within the subtree
1800 is now commented out, i.e. no #+OPTIONS line will be parsed or taken
1801 into account when exporting.
1803 If you want to exclude a headline from export while using its contents
1804 for setting options, use =:noexport:= (see =org-export-exclude-tags=.)
1806 *** =#+CATEGORY= keywords no longer apply partially to document
1808 It was possible to use several such keywords and have them apply to
1809 the text below until the next one, but strongly deprecated since Org
1812 =#+CATEGORY= keywords are now global to the document. You can use node
1813 properties to set category for a subtree, e.g.,
1818 :CATEGORY: some category
1822 *** New variable to control visibility when revealing a location
1824 ~org-show-following-heading~, ~org-show-siblings~, ~org-show-entry-below~
1825 and ~org-show-hierarchy-above~ no longer exist. Instead, visibility is
1826 controlled through a single variable: ~org-show-context-detail~, which
1829 *** Replace disputed keys again when reading a date
1831 ~org-replace-disputed-keys~ has been ignored when reading date since
1832 version 8.1, but the former behavior is restored again.
1834 Keybinding for reading date can be customized with a new variable
1835 ~org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map~.
1837 *** No default title is provided when =TITLE= keyword is missing
1839 Skipping =TITLE= keyword no longer provides the current file name, or
1840 buffer name, as the title. Instead, simply ignore the title.
1842 *** Default bindings of =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= changed
1844 The key sequences =C-c C-n= and =C-c C-p= are now bound to
1845 ~org-next-visible-heading~ and ~org-previous-visible-heading~
1846 respectively, rather than the =outline-mode= versions of these
1847 functions. The Org version of these functions skips over inline tasks
1848 (and even-level headlines when ~org-odd-levels-only~ is set).
1850 *** ~org-element-context~ no longer return objects in keywords
1852 ~org-element-context~ used to return objects on some keywords, i.e.,
1853 =TITLE=, =DATE= and =AUTHOR=. It now returns only the keyword.
1855 *** ~org-timer-default-timer~ type changed from number to string
1857 If you have, in your configuration, something like =(setq
1858 org-timer-default-timer 10)= replace it with =(setq
1859 org-timer-default-timer "10")=.
1861 *** Functions signature changes
1863 The following functions require an additional argument. See their
1864 docstring for more information.
1866 - ~org-export-collect-footnote-definitions~
1867 - ~org-html-format-headline-function~
1868 - ~org-html-format-inlinetask-function~
1869 - ~org-latex-format-headline-function~
1870 - ~org-latex-format-inlinetask-function~
1875 *** Default lexical evaluation of emacs-lisp source blocks
1877 Emacs-lisp source blocks in Babel are now evaluated using lexical
1878 scoping. There is a new header to control this behavior.
1880 The default results in an eval with lexical scoping.
1883 This turns lexical scoping off in the eval (the former behavior).
1886 This uses the lexical environment with x=42 in the eval.
1887 :lexical '((x . 42))
1889 *** Behavior of ~org-return~ changed
1891 If point is before or after the headline title, insert a new line
1892 without changing the headline.
1894 *** Hierarchies of tags
1896 The functionality of nesting tags in hierarchies is added to org-mode.
1897 This is the generalization of what was previously called "Tag groups"
1898 in the manual. That term is now changed to "Tag hierarchy".
1900 The following in-buffer definition:
1903 ,#+TAGS: [ Group : SubOne SubTwo ]
1904 ,#+TAGS: [ SubOne : SubOne1 SubOne2 ]
1905 ,#+TAGS: [ SubTwo : SubTwo1 SubTwo2 ]
1908 Should be seen as the following tree of tags:
1918 Searching for "Group" should return all tags defined above. Filtering
1919 on SubOne filters also it's sub-tags. Etc.
1921 There is no limit on the depth for the tag hierarchy.
1923 *** Additional syntax for non-unique grouptags
1925 Additional syntax is defined for grouptags if the tags in the group
1926 don't have to be distinct on a heading.
1928 Grouptags had to previously be defined with { }. This syntax is
1929 already used for exclusive tags and Grouptags need their own,
1930 non-exclusive syntax. This behavior is achieved with [ ]. Note: { }
1931 can still be used also for Grouptags but then only one of the given
1932 tags can be used on the headline at the same time. Example:
1934 [ group : sub1 sub2 ]
1940 This is a more general case than the already existing syntax for
1943 *** Define regular expression patterns as tags
1945 Tags can be defined as grouptags with regular expressions as
1948 The regular expressions in the group must be marked up within { }.
1951 : #+TAGS: [ Project : {P@.+} ]
1953 Searching for the tag Project will now list all tags also including
1954 regular expression matches for P@.+. This is good for example for
1955 projects tagged with a common identifier, i.e. P@2014_OrgTags.
1957 *** Filtering in the agenda on grouptags (Tag hierarchies)
1959 Filtering in the agenda on grouptags filters all of the related tags.
1960 Except if a filter is applied with a (double) prefix-argument.
1962 Filtering in the agenda on subcategories does not filter the "above"
1965 If a grouptag contains a regular expression the regular expression
1966 is also used as a filter.
1968 *** Minor refactoring of ~org-agenda-filter-by-tag~
1970 Now uses the argument ARG and optional argument exclude instead of
1971 strip and narrow. ARG because the argument has multiple purposes and
1972 makes more sense than strip now. The term "narrowing" is changed to
1975 The main purpose is for the function to make more logical sense when
1976 filtering on tags now when tags can be structured in hierarchies.
1978 *** Babel: support for sed scripts
1980 Thanks to Bjarte Johansen for this feature.
1982 *** Babel: support for Processing language
1984 New ob-processing.el library.
1986 This library implements necessary functions for implementing editing
1987 of Processing code blocks, viewing the resulting sketches in an
1988 external viewer, and HTML export of the sketches.
1990 Check the documentation for more details.
1992 Thanks to Jarmo Hurri for this feature.
1994 *** New behavior for ~org-toggle-latex-fragment~
1996 The new behavior is the following:
1998 - With a double prefix argument or with a single prefix argument when
1999 point is before the first headline, toggle overlays in the whole
2002 - With a single prefix argument, toggle overlays in the current
2005 - On latex code, toggle overlay at point;
2007 - Otherwise, toggle overlays in the current section.
2009 *** Additional markup with =#+INCLUDE= keyword
2011 The content of the included file can now be optionally marked up, for
2012 instance as HTML. See the documentation for details.
2014 *** File links with =#+INCLUDE= keyword
2016 Objects can be extracted via =#+INCLUDE= using file links. It is
2017 possible to include only the contents of the object. See manual for
2020 *** Drawers do not need anymore to be referenced in =#+DRAWERS=
2022 One can use a drawer without listing it in the =#+DRAWERS= keyword,
2023 which is now obsolete. As a consequence, this change also deprecates
2024 ~org-drawers~ variable.
2026 *** ~org-edit-special~ can edit export blocks
2028 Using C-c ' on an export block now opens a sub-editing buffer. Major
2029 mode in that buffer is determined by export backend name (e.g.,
2030 "latex" \to "latex-mode"). You can define exceptions to this rule by
2031 configuring ~org-src-lang-modes~, which see.
2033 *** Additional =:hline= processing to ob-shell
2035 If the argument =:hlines yes= is present in a babel call, an optional
2036 argument =:hlines-string= can be used to define a string to use as a
2037 representation for the lisp symbol ='hline= in the shell program. The
2040 *** Markdown export supports switches in source blocks
2042 For example, it is now possible to number lines using the =-n= switch in
2045 *** New option in ASCII export
2047 Plain lists can have an extra margin by setting ~org-ascii-list-margin~
2048 variable to an appropriate integer.
2050 *** New blocks in ASCII export
2052 ASCII export now supports =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYRIGHT= and =#+BEGIN_JUSTIFYLEFT=
2053 blocks. See documentation for details.
2055 *** More back-end specific publishing options
2057 The number of publishing options specific to each back-end has been
2058 increased. See manual for details.
2060 *** Export inline source blocks
2062 Inline source code was used to be removed upon exporting. They are
2063 now handled as standard code blocks, i.e., the source code can appear
2064 in the output, depending on the parameters.
2066 *** Extend ~org-export-first-sibling-p~ and ~org-export-last-sibling-p~
2068 These functions now support any element or object, not only headlines.
2070 *** New function: ~org-export-table-row-in-header-p~
2072 *** New function: ~org-export-get-reference~
2074 *** New function: ~org-element-lineage~
2076 This function deprecates ~org-export-get-genealogy~. It also provides
2077 more features. See docstring for details.
2079 *** New function: ~org-element-copy~
2081 *** New filter: ~org-export-filter-body-functions~
2083 Functions in this filter are applied on the body of the exported
2084 document, before wrapping it within the template.
2086 *** New :environment parameter when exporting example blocks to LaTeX
2088 : #+ATTR_LATEX: :environment myverbatim
2090 : This sentence is false.
2093 will be exported using =@samp(myverbatim)= instead of =@samp(verbatim)=.
2095 *** Various improvements on radio tables
2097 Radio tables feature now relies on Org's export framework ("ox.el").
2098 ~:no-escape~ parameter no longer exists, but additional global
2099 parameters are now supported: ~:raw~, ~:backend~. Moreover, there are new
2100 parameters specific to some pre-defined translators, e.g.,
2101 ~:environment~ and ~:booktabs~ for ~orgtbl-to-latex~. See translators
2102 docstrings (including ~orgtbl-to-generic~) for details.
2104 *** Non-floating minted listings in Latex export
2106 It is not possible to specify =#+attr_latex: :float nil= in conjunction
2107 with source blocks exported by the minted package.
2109 *** Field formulas can now create columns as needed
2111 Previously, evaluating formulas that referenced out-of-bounds columns
2112 would throw an error. A new variable ~org-table-formula-create-columns~
2113 was added to adjust this behavior. It is now possible to silently add
2114 new columns, to do so with a warning or to explicitly ask the user
2119 Ability to plot values in a column through ASCII-art bars. See manual
2122 *** New hook: ~org-archive-hook~
2124 This hook is called after successfully archiving a subtree, with point
2125 on the original subtree, not yet deleted.
2127 *** New option: ~org-attach-archive-delete~
2129 When non-nil, attachments from archived subtrees are removed.
2131 *** New option: ~org-latex-caption-above~
2133 This variable generalizes ~org-latex-table-caption-above~, which is now
2134 deprecated. In addition to tables, it applies to source blocks,
2135 special blocks and images. See docstring for more information.
2137 *** New option: ~org-latex-prefer-user-labels~
2139 See the docstring for more information.
2141 *** Export unnumbered headlines
2143 Headlines, for which the property ~UNNUMBERED~ is non-nil, are now
2144 exported without section numbers irrespective of their levels. The
2145 property is inherited by children.
2147 *** Tables can be sorted with an arbitrary function
2149 It is now possible to specify a function, both programmatically,
2150 through a new optional argument, and interactively with ~f~ or ~F~ keys,
2153 *** Table of contents can be local to a section
2155 The ~TOC~ keywords now accepts an optional ~local~ parameter. See manual
2158 *** Countdown timers can now be paused
2160 ~org-timer-pause-time~ now pauses and restarts both relative and
2163 *** New option ~only-window~ for ~org-agenda-window-setup~
2165 When ~org-agenda-window-setup~ is set to ~only-window~, the agenda is
2166 displayed as the sole window of the current frame.
2168 *** ~{{{date}}}~ macro supports optional formatting argument
2170 It is now possible to supply and optional formatting argument to
2171 ~{{{date}}}~. See manual for details.
2173 *** ~{{{property}}}~ macro supports optional search argument
2175 It is now possible to supply an optional search option to
2176 ~{{{property}}}~ in order to retrieve remote properties optional. See
2179 *** New option ~org-export-with-title~
2181 It is possible to suppress the title insertion with ~#+OPTIONS:
2182 title:nil~ or globally using the variable ~org-export-with-title~.
2184 *** New entities family: "\_ "
2186 "\_ " are used to insert up to 20 contiguous spaces in various
2187 back-ends. In particular, this family can be used to introduce
2188 leading spaces within table cells.
2190 *** New MathJax configuration options
2192 Org uses the MathJax CDN by default. See the manual and the docstring
2193 of ~org-html-mathjax-options~ for details.
2195 *** New behavior in `org-export-options-alist'
2197 When defining a back-end, it is now possible to specify to give
2198 `parse' behavior on a keyword. It is equivalent to call
2199 `org-element-parse-secondary-string' on the value.
2201 However, parsed =KEYWORD= is automatically associated to an
2202 =:EXPORT_KEYWORD:= property, which can be used to override the keyword
2203 value during a subtree export. Moreover, macros are expanded in such
2204 keywords and properties.
2206 *** Viewport support in html export
2208 Viewport for mobile-optimized website is now automatically inserted
2209 when exporting to html. See ~org-html-viewport~ for details.
2211 *** New ~#+SUBTITLE~ export keyword
2213 Org can typeset a subtitle in some export backends. See the manual
2216 *** Remotely edit a footnote definition
2218 Calling ~org-edit-footnote-reference~ (C-c ') on a footnote reference
2219 allows to edit its definition, as long as it is not anonymous, in a
2220 dedicated buffer. It works even if buffer is currently narrowed.
2222 *** New function ~org-delete-indentation~ bound to ~M-^~
2224 Work as ~delete-indentation~ unless at heading, in which case text is
2225 added to headline text.
2227 *** Support for images in Texinfo export
2229 ~Texinfo~ back-end now handles images. See the manual for details.
2231 *** Support for captions in Texinfo export
2233 Tables and source blocks can now have captions. Additionally, lists
2234 of tables and lists of listings can be inserted in the document with
2237 *** Countdown timer support hh:mm:ss format
2239 In addition to setting countdown timers in minutes, they can also be
2240 set using the hh:mm:ss format.
2242 *** Extend ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~
2244 ~org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift~ now accepts 0 as an argument for the
2245 number of clones, which removes the repeater from the original subtree
2246 and creates one shifted, repeating clone.
2248 *** New time block for clock tables: ~untilnow~
2250 It encompasses all past closed clocks.
2252 *** Support for the ~polyglossia~ LaTeX package
2254 See the docstring of ~org-latex-classes~ and
2255 ~org-latex-guess-polyglossia-language~ for details.
2257 *** None-floating tables, graphics and blocks can have captions
2259 *** `org-insert-heading' can be forced to insert top-level headline
2261 ** Removed functions
2263 *** Removed function ~org-translate-time~
2265 Use ~org-timestamp-translate~ instead.
2267 *** Removed function ~org-beamer-insert-options-template~
2269 This function inserted a Beamer specific template at point or in
2270 current subtree. Use ~org-export-insert-default-template~ instead, as
2271 it provides more features and covers all export back-ends. It is also
2272 accessible from the export dispatcher.
2274 *** Removed function ~org-timer-cancel-timer~
2276 ~org-timer-stop~ now stops both relative and countdown timers.
2278 *** Removed function ~org-export-solidify-link-text~
2280 This function, being non-bijective, introduced bug in internal
2281 references. Use ~org-export-get-reference~ instead.
2283 *** Removed function ~org-end-of-meta-data-and-drawers~
2285 The function is superseded by ~org-end-of-meta-data~, called with an
2288 *** Removed functions ~org-table-colgroup-line-p~, ~org-table-cookie-line-p~
2290 These functions were left-over from pre 8.0 era. They are not correct
2291 anymore. Since they are not needed, they have no replacement.
2295 *** ~org-list-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists~ is deprecated
2297 It will be kept in code base until next release, for backward
2300 If you need to separate consecutive lists with blank lines, always use
2301 two of them, as if this option was nil (default value).
2303 *** ~org-export-with-creator~ is a boolean
2305 Special ~comment~ value is no longer allowed. It is possible to use a
2306 body filter to add comments about the creator at the end of the
2309 *** Removed option =org-html-use-unicode-chars=
2311 Setting this to non-nil was problematic as it converted characters
2312 everywhere in the buffer, possibly corrupting URLs.
2314 *** Removed option =org-babel-sh-command=
2316 This undocumented option defaulted to the value of =shell-file-name= at
2317 the time of loading =ob-shell=. The new behavior is to use the value
2318 of =shell-file-name= directly when the shell langage is =shell=. To chose
2319 a different shell, either customize =shell-file-name= or bind this
2322 *** Removed option =org-babel-sh-var-quote-fmt=
2324 This undocumented option was supposed to provide different quoting
2325 styles when changing the shell type. Changing the shell type can now
2326 be done directly from the source block and the quoting style has to be
2327 compatible across all shells, so a customization doesn't make sense
2328 anymore. The chosen hard coded quoting style conforms to POSIX.
2330 *** Removed option ~org-insert-labeled-timestamps-at-point~
2332 Setting this option to anything else that the default value (nil)
2333 would create invalid planning info. This dangerous option is now
2336 *** Removed option ~org-koma-letter-use-title~
2338 Use org-export-with-title instead. See also below.
2340 *** Removed option ~org-entities-ascii-explanatory~
2342 This variable has no effect since Org 8.0.
2344 *** Removed option ~org-table-error-on-row-ref-crossing-hline~
2346 This variable has no effect since August 2009.
2348 *** Removed MathML-related options from ~org-html-mathjax-options~
2350 MathJax automatically chooses the best display technology based on the
2351 end-users browser. You may force initial usage of MathML via
2352 ~org-html-mathjax-template~ or by setting the ~path~ property of
2353 ~org-html-mathjax-options~.
2355 *** Removed comment-related filters
2357 ~org-export-filter-comment-functions~ and
2358 ~org-export-filter-comment-block-functions~ variables do not exist
2363 *** Strip all meta data from ITEM special property
2365 ITEM special property does not contain TODO, priority or tags anymore.
2367 *** File names in links accept are now compatible with URI syntax
2369 Absolute file names can now start with =///= in addition to =/=. E.g.,
2370 =[[file:///home/me/unicorn.jpg]]=.
2372 *** Footnotes in included files are now local to the file
2374 As a consequence, it is possible to include multiple Org files with
2375 footnotes in a master document without being concerned about footnote
2378 *** Mailto links now use regular URI syntax
2380 This change deprecates old Org syntax for mailto links:
2381 =mailto:user@domain::Subject=.
2383 *** =QUOTE= keywords do not exist anymore
2385 =QUOTE= keywords have been deprecated since Org 8.2.
2387 *** Select tests to perform with the build system
2389 The build system has been enhanced to allow test selection with a
2390 regular expression by defining =BTEST_RE= during the test invocation.
2391 This is especially useful during bisection to find just when a
2392 particular test failure was introduced.
2394 *** Exact heading search for external links ignore spaces and cookies
2396 Exact heading search for links now ignore spaces and cookies. This is
2397 the case for links of the form ~file:projects.org::*task title~, as well
2398 as links of the form ~file:projects.org::some words~ when
2399 ~org-link-search-must-match-exact-headline~ is not nil.
2401 *** ~org-latex-hyperref-template~, ~org-latex-title-command~ formatting
2403 New formatting keys are supported. See the respective docstrings.
2404 Note, ~org-latex-hyperref-template~ has a new default value.
2406 *** ~float, wasysym, marvosym~ are removed from ~org-latex-default-packages-alist~
2408 If you require any of these package add them to your preamble via
2409 ~org-latex-packages-alist~. Org also uses default LaTeX ~\tolerance~ now.
2411 *** When exporting, throw an error on unresolved id/fuzzy links and code refs
2413 This helps spotting wrong links.
2417 ** Incompatible changes
2418 *** =ob-sh.el= renamed to =ob-shell=
2419 This may require two changes in user config.
2421 1. In =org-babel-do-load-languages=, change =(sh . t)= to =(shell . t)=.
2422 2. Edit =local.mk= files to change the value of =BTEST_OB_LANGUAGES=
2423 to remove "sh" and include "shell".
2425 *** Combine org-mac-message.el and org-mac-link-grabber into org-mac-link.el
2427 Please remove calls to =(require 'org-mac-message)= and =(require
2428 'org-mac-link-grabber)= in your =.emacs= initialization file. All you
2429 need now is =(require 'org-mac-link)=.
2431 Additionally, replace any calls to =ogml-grab-link= to
2432 =org-mac-grab-link=. For example, replace this line:
2434 : (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'omgl-grab-link)
2438 : (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'org-mac-grab-link)
2440 *** HTML export: Replace =HTML_HTML5_FANCY= by =:html-html5-fancy= (...)
2442 Some of the HTML specific export options in Org <8.1 are either nil or
2443 t, like =#+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=. We replaced these binary options with
2444 option keywords like :html-include-style.
2446 So you need to replace
2448 : #+HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE: t
2452 : #+OPTIONS: :html-include-style t
2454 Options affected by this change: =HTML5_FANCY=, =HTML_INCLUDE_SCRIPTS=
2455 and =HTML_INCLUDE_STYLE=.
2457 *** Add an argument to ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-buffer~
2459 ~org-export-to-file~ and ~org-export-to-file~ can run in a different
2460 process when provided a non-nil =ASYNC= optional argument, without
2461 relying on ~org-export-async-start~ macro.
2463 Since =ASYNC= is the first of optional arguments, you have to shift
2464 the other optional arguments accordingly.
2466 *** Export back-ends are now structures
2468 Export back-ends are now structures, and stored as such in the
2469 communication channel during an export process. In other words, from
2470 now on, ~(plist-get info :back-end)~ will return a structure instead
2473 Arguments in hooks and in filters are still symbols, though.
2475 ** Important bugfixes
2477 *** [[doc:org-insert-heading][org-insert-heading]] has been rewritten and bugs are now fixed
2478 *** The replacement of disputed keys is now turned of when reading a date
2480 *** Match string for sparse trees can now contain a slash in a property value
2482 You can now have searches like SOMEPROP="aaa/bbb". Until now,
2483 this would break because the slash would be interpreted as the
2484 separator starting a TOTO match string.
2487 *** =C-c ^ x= will now sort checklist items by their checked status
2489 See [[doc:org-sort-list][org-sort-list]]: hitting =C-c ^ x= will put checked items at the end
2491 *** Various LaTeX export enhancements
2493 - Support SVG images
2494 - Support for .pgf files
2495 - LaTeX Babel blocks can now be exported as =.tikz= files
2496 - Allow =latexmk= as an option for [[doc:org-latex-pdf-process][org-latex-pdf-process]]
2497 - When using =\usepackage[AUTO]{babel}=, AUTO will automatically be
2498 replaced with a value compatible with ~org-export-default-language~
2499 or ~LANGUAGE~ keyword.
2500 - The dependency on the =latexsym= LaTeX package has been removed, we
2501 now use =amssymb= symbols by default instead.
2503 *** New functions for paragraph motion
2505 The commands =C-down= and =C-up= now invoke special commands
2506 that use knowledge from the org-elements parser to move the cursor
2507 in a paragraph-like way.
2509 *** New entities in =org-entities.el=
2511 Add support for ell, imath, jmath, varphi, varpi, aleph, gimel, beth,
2512 dalet, cdots, S (§), dag, ddag, colon, therefore, because, triangleq,
2513 leq, geq, lessgtr, lesseqgtr, ll, lll, gg, ggg, prec, preceq,
2514 preccurlyeq, succ, succeq, succurlyeq, setminus, nexist(s), mho,
2515 check, frown, diamond. Changes loz, vert, checkmark, smile and tilde.
2517 *** Anonymous export back-ends
2519 ~org-export-create-backend~ can create anonymous export back-ends,
2520 which can then be passed to export functions like
2521 ~org-export-to-file~, ~org-export-to-buffer~ or ~org-export-as~.
2523 It allows for quick translation of Org syntax without the overhead of
2524 registering a new back-end.
2526 *** New agenda fortnight view
2528 The agenda has not, in addition to day, week, month, and year
2529 views, also a fortnight view covering 14 days.
2532 *** New option [[doc:org-bookmark-names-plist][org-bookmark-names-plist]]
2534 This allows to specify the names of automatic bookmarks.
2535 *** New option [[doc:org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties][org-agenda-ignore-drawer-properties]]
2537 This allows more flexibility when optimizing the agenda generation.
2538 See https://orgmode.org/worg/agenda-optimization.html for details.
2539 *** New option: [[doc:org-html-link-use-abs-url][org-html-link-use-abs-url]] to force using absolute URLs
2541 This is an export/publishing option, and should be used either within
2542 the =#+OPTIONS= line(s) or within a [[doc:org-publish-project-alist][org-publish-project-alist]].
2544 Setting this option to =t= is needed when the HTML output does not
2545 allow relative URLs. For example, the =contrib/lisp/ox-rss.el=
2546 library produces a RSS feed, and RSS feeds need to use absolute URLs,
2547 so a combination of =:html-link-home "..." and :html-link-use-abs-url
2548 t= is required---see the configuration example in the comment section
2551 *** New option [[doc:org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd][org-babel-ditaa-java-cmd]]
2553 This makes java executable configurable for ditaa blocks.
2555 *** New options [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex][org-babel-latex-htlatex]] and [[doc:org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages][org-babel-latex-htlatex-packages]]
2557 This enables SVG generation from latex code blocks.
2559 *** New option: [[doc:org-habit-show-done-always-green][org-habit-show-done-always-green]]
2561 See [[https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-orgmode/2013-05/msg00214.html][this message]] from Max Mikhanosha.
2563 *** New option: [[doc:org-babel-inline-result-wrap][org-babel-inline-result-wrap]]
2565 If you set this to the following
2567 : (setq org-babel-inline-result-wrap "$%s$")
2569 then inline code snippets will be wrapped into the formatting string.
2571 *** New option: [[doc:org-special-ctrl-o][org-special-ctrl-o]]
2573 This variable can be used to turn off the special behavior of
2575 ** New contributed packages
2577 - =ox-bibtex.el= by Nicolas Goaziou :: an utility to handle BibTeX
2578 export to both LaTeX and HTML exports. It uses the [[http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/][bibtex2html]]
2581 - =org-screenshot.el= by Max Mikhanosha :: an utility to handle
2582 screenshots easily from Org, using the external tool [[http://freecode.com/projects/scrot][scrot]].
2586 *** "QUOTE" keywords in headlines are deprecated
2588 "QUOTE" keywords are an undocumented feature in Org. When a headline
2589 starts with the keyword "QUOTE", its contents are parsed as
2590 a ~quote-section~ and treated as an example block. You can achieve
2591 the same with example blocks.
2593 This feature is deprecated and will be removed in the next Org
2600 Installation instructions have been updated and simplified.
2602 If you have troubles installing or updating Org, focus on these
2605 - when updating via a =.zip/.tar.gz= file, you only need to set the
2606 =load-path= in your =.emacs=. Set it before any other Org
2607 customization that would call autoloaded Org functions.
2609 - when updating by pulling Org's Git repository, make sure to create the
2610 correct autoloads. You can do this by running =~$ make autoloads= (to
2611 only create the autoloads) or by running =~$ make= (to also compile
2612 the Emacs lisp files.) =~$ make help= and =~$ make helpall= gives you
2613 detailed explanations.
2615 - when updating through ELPA (either from GNU ELPA or from Org ELPA),
2616 you have to install Org's ELPA package in a session where no Org
2617 function has been called already.
2619 When in doubt, run =M-x org-version RET= and see if you have a mixed-up
2622 See https://orgmode.org/org.html#Installation for details.
2624 ** Incompatible changes
2626 Org 8.0 is the most disruptive major version of Org.
2628 If you configured export options, you will have to update some of them.
2630 If you used =#+ATTR_*= keywords, the syntax of the attributes changed and
2631 you will have to update them.
2633 Below is a list of changes for which you need to take action.
2635 See https://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html for the most recent version of
2636 this list and for detailed instructions on how to migrate.
2638 **** New export engine
2640 Org 8.0 comes with a new export engine written by Nicolas Goaziou. This
2641 export engine relies on ~org-element.el~ (Org's syntax parser), which was
2642 already in Org's core. This new export engine triggered the rewriting of
2643 /all/ export back-ends.
2645 The most visible change is the export dispatcher, accessible through the
2646 keybinding =C-c C-e=. By default, this menu only shows some of the
2647 built-in export formats, but you can add more formats by loading them
2648 directly (e.g., =(require 'ox-texinfo)= or by configuring the option
2649 [[doc:org-export-backends][org-export-backends]].
2651 More contributed back-ends are available from the =contrib/= directory, the
2652 corresponding files start with the =ox-= prefix.
2654 If you customized an export back-end (like HTML or LaTeX), you will need to
2655 rename some options so that your customization is not lost. Typically, an
2656 option starting with =org-export-html-= is now named =org-html-=. See the
2657 manual for details and check [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html][this Worg page]] for directions.
2659 **** New syntax for #+ATTR_HTML/LaTeX/... options
2661 : #+ATTR_HTML width="200px"
2663 should now be written
2665 : #+ATTR_HTML :width 200px
2667 Keywords like =#+ATTR_HTML= and =#+ATTR_LaTeX= are defined in their
2668 respective back-ends, and the list of supported parameters depends on
2669 each backend. See Org's manual for details.
2671 **** ~org-remember.el~ has been removed
2673 You cannot use =remember.el= anymore to capture notes.
2675 Support for remember templates has been obsoleted since long, it is
2678 Use =M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET= to import your
2679 remember templates into capture templates.
2681 **** ~org-jsinfo.el~ has been merged into ~ox-html.el~
2683 If you were requiring ~ox-jsinfo.el~ in your ~.emacs.el~ file, you
2684 will have to remove this requirement from your initialization file.
2686 **** Note for third-party developers
2688 The name of the files for export back-end have changed: we now use the
2689 prefix =ox-= for those files (like we use the =ob-= prefix for Babel
2690 files.) For example ~org-html.el~ is now ~ox-html.el~.
2692 If your code relies on these files, please update the names in your
2695 **** Packages moved from core to contrib
2697 Since packages in Org's core are meant to be part of GNU Emacs, we try
2698 to be minimalist when it comes to adding files into core. For 8.0, we
2699 moved some contributions into the =contrib/= directory.
2701 The rationale for deciding that these files should live in =contrib/=
2702 is either because they rely on third-party software that is not
2703 included in Emacs, or because they are not targeting a significant
2706 - org-colview-xemacs.el
2707 - org-mac-message.el
2713 Note that ~ox-freedmind.el~ has been rewritten by Jambunathan,
2714 ~org-mew.el~ has been enhanced by Tokuya Kameshima and
2715 ~ox-taskjuggler.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and others.
2717 Also, the Taskjuggler exporter now uses TJ3 by default. John Hendy
2718 wrote [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html][a tutorial on Worg]] for the TJ3 export.
2720 ** New packages in core
2722 *** ~ob-makefile.el~ by Eric Schulte and Thomas S. Dye
2724 =ob-makefile.el= implements Org Babel support for Makefile tangling.
2726 *** ~ox-man.el~ by Luis Anaya
2728 =ox-man.el= allows you to export Org files to =man= pages.
2730 *** ~ox-md.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou
2732 =ox-md.el= allows you to export Org files to Markdown files, using the
2733 vanilla [[http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/][Markdown syntax]].
2735 *** ~ox-texinfo.el~ by Jonathan Leech-Pepin
2737 =ox-texinfo.el= allows you to export Org files to [[https://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/][Texinfo]] files.
2739 ** New packages in contrib
2741 *** ~ob-julia.el~ by G. Jay Kerns
2743 [[http://julialang.org/][Julia]] is a new programming language.
2745 =ob-julia.el= provides Org Babel support for evaluating Julia source
2748 *** ~ob-mathomatic.el~ by Luis Anaya
2750 [[http://www.mathomatic.org/][mathomatic]] a portable, command-line, educational CAS and calculator
2751 software, written entirely in the C programming language.
2753 ~ob-mathomatic.el~ provides Org Babel support for evaluating mathomatic
2756 *** ~ob-tcl.el~ by Luis Anaya
2758 ~ob-tcl.el~ provides Org Babel support for evaluating [[http://www.tcl.tk/][Tcl]] source code.
2760 *** ~org-bullets.el~ by Evgeni Sabof
2762 Display bullets instead of stars for headlines.
2764 Also see [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#sec-8-12][this updated FAQ]] on how to display another character than "*"
2765 for starting headlines.
2767 *** ~org-favtable.el~ by Marc-Oliver Ihm
2769 ~org-favtable.el~ helps you to create and update a table of favorite
2770 locations in org, keeping the most frequently visited lines right at
2771 the top. This table is called "favtable". See the documentation on
2772 [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-favtable.html][Worg]].
2774 *** ~ox-confluence.el~ by Sébastien Delafond
2776 ~ox-confluence.el~ lets you convert Org files to [[https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Confluence%2BWiki%2BMarkup][Confluence Wiki]] files.
2778 *** ~ox-deck.el~ and ~ox-s5.el~ by Rick Frankel
2780 [[http://imakewebthings.com/deck.js/][deck.js]] is a javascript library for displaying HTML ages as
2781 presentations. ~ox-deck.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations
2784 [[http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/][s5]] is a set of scripts which also allows to display HTML pages as
2785 presentations. ~ox-s5.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations
2788 *** ~ox-groff.el~ by Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou
2790 The [[https://www.gnu.org/software/groff/][groff]] (GNU troff) software is a typesetting package which reads
2791 plain text mixed with formatting commands and produces formatted
2794 Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou implemented ~ox-groff.el~ to allow
2795 conversion from Org files to groff.
2797 *** ~ox-koma-letter.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and Alan Schmitt
2799 This back-end allow to export Org pages to the =KOMA Scrlttr2= format.
2801 *** ~ox-rss.el~ by Bastien
2803 This back-end lets you export Org pages to RSS 2.0 feeds. Combined
2804 with the HTML publishing feature, this allows you to build a blog
2811 **** New export generic options
2813 If you use Org exporter, we advise you to re-read [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Exporting][the manual section about
2814 it]]. It has been updated and includes new options.
2816 Among the new/updated export options, three are of particular importance:
2818 - [[doc:org-export-allow-bind-keywords][org-export-allow-bind-keywords]] :: This option replaces the old option
2819 =org-export-allow-BIND= and the default value is =nil=, not =confirm=.
2820 You will need to explicitly set this to =t= in your initialization
2821 file if you want to allow =#+BIND= keywords.
2823 - [[doc:org-export-with-planning][org-export-with-planning]] :: This new option controls the export of
2824 =SCHEDULED:, DEADLINE:, CLOSED:= lines, and planning information is
2825 now skipped by default during export. This use to be the job of
2826 [[doc:org-export-with-timestamps][org-export-with-timestamps]], but this latter option has been given a
2827 new role: it controls the export of /standalone time-stamps/. When
2828 set to =nil=, Org will not export active and inactive time-stamps
2829 standing on a line by themselves or within a paragraph that only
2830 contains time-stamps.
2832 To check if an option has been introduced or its default value changed in
2833 Org 8.0, do =C-h v [option] RET= and check if the documentation says that
2834 the variable has been introduced (or changed) in version 24.4 of Emacs.
2836 **** Enhanced default stylesheet for the HTML exporter
2838 See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-style-default][org-html-style-default]].
2840 **** New tags, classes and ids for the HTML exporter
2842 See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-divs][org-html-divs]].
2844 **** Support for tikz pictures in LaTeX export
2845 **** ~org-man.el~: New export function for "man" links
2846 **** ~org-docview.el~: New export function for docview links
2847 *** Structure editing
2849 **** =C-u C-u M-RET= inserts a heading at the end of the parent subtree
2850 **** Cycling to the =CONTENTS= view keeps inline tasks folded
2852 [[doc:org-cycle-hook][org-cycle-hook]] as a new function [[doc:org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks][org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks]] which
2853 prevents the display of inline tasks when showing the content of a subtree.
2855 **** =C-c -= in a region makes a list item for each line
2857 This is the opposite of the previous behavior, where =C-c -= on a region
2858 would create one item for the whole region, and where =C-u C-c -= would
2859 create an item for each line. Now =C-c -= on the selected region creates
2860 an item per line, and =C-u C-c -= creates a single item for the whole
2863 **** When transposing words, markup characters are now part of the words
2865 In Emacs, you can transpose words with =M-t=. Transposing =*these*
2866 _words__= will preserve markup.
2868 **** New command [[doc:org-set-property-and-value][org-set-property-and-value]] bound to =C-c C-x P=
2870 This command allows you to quickly add both the property and its value. It
2871 is useful in buffers where there are many properties and where =C-c C-x p=
2872 can slow down the flow of editing too much.
2874 **** New commands [[doc:org-next-block][org-next-block]] and [[doc:org-previous-block][org-previous-block]]
2876 These commands allow you to go to the previous block (=C-c M-b= or the
2877 speedy key =B=) or to the next block (=C-c M-f= or the speedy key =F=.)
2879 **** New commands [[doc:org-drag-line-forward][org-drag-line-forward]] and [[doc:org-drag-line-backward][org-drag-line-backward]]
2881 These commands emulate the old behavior of =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= but are
2882 now bound to =S-M-<down>= and =S-M-<up>= respectively, since =M-<down>= and
2883 =M-<up>= now drag the whole element at point (a paragraph, a table, etc.)
2884 forward and backward.
2886 **** When a list item has a checkbox, inserting a new item uses a checkbox too
2887 **** When sorting entries/items, only the description of links is considered
2889 Now Org will sort this list
2891 : - [[http://abc.org][B]]
2892 : - [[http://def.org][A]]
2896 : - [[http://def.org][A]]
2897 : - [[http://abc.org][B]]
2899 by comparing the descriptions, not the links.
2900 Same when sorting headlines instead of list items.
2901 **** New option =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp=
2903 For example, setting this option to "^;;; " in Emacs lisp files and using
2904 =orgstruct-mode= in those files will allow you to cycle through visibility
2905 states as if lines starting with ";;; *..." where headlines.
2907 In general, you want to set =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= as a file
2910 **** New behavior of [[doc:org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift][org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift]]
2912 The default is now to ask for a time-shift only when there is a time-stamp.
2913 When called with a universal prefix argument =C-u=, it will not ask for a
2914 time-shift even if there is a time-stamp.
2916 **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree][org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree]]
2918 This defaults to =t= so that the whole subtree is highlighted when you
2919 restrict the agenda view to it with =C-c C-x <= (or the speed command =<=).
2920 The default setting helps ensuring that you are not adding tasks after the
2921 restricted region. If you find this highlighting too intrusive, set this
2923 **** New option [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]]
2925 When switching back from a =DONE= keyword to a =TODO= keyword, Org now
2926 removes the =CLOSED= planning information, if any. It also removes this
2927 information when going back to a non-TODO state (e.g., with =C-c C-t SPC=).
2928 If you want to keep the =CLOSED= planning information when removing the
2929 TODO keyword, set [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] to =t=.
2931 **** New option [[doc:org-image-actual-width][org-image-actual-width]]
2933 This option allows you to change the width of in-buffer displayed images.
2934 The default is to use the actual width of the image, but you can use a
2935 fixed value for all images, or fall back on an attribute like
2937 : #+attr_html: :width 300px
2938 *** Scheduled/deadline
2940 **** Implement "delay" cookies for scheduled items
2942 If you want to delay the display of a scheduled task in the agenda, you can
2943 now use a delay cookie like this: =SCHEDULED: <2004-12-25 Sat -2d>=. The
2944 task is still scheduled on the 25th but will appear in your agenda starting
2945 from two days later (i.e. from March 27th.)
2947 Imagine for example that your co-workers are not done in due time and tell
2948 you "we need two more days". In that case, you may want to delay the
2949 display of the task in your agenda by two days, but you still want the task
2950 to appear as scheduled on March 25th.
2952 In case the task contains a repeater, the delay is considered to affect all
2953 occurrences; if you want the delay to only affect the first scheduled
2954 occurrence of the task, use =--2d= instead. See [[doc:org-scheduled-delay-days][org-scheduled-delay-days]]
2955 and [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline]] for details on how to
2956 control this globally or per agenda.
2958 **** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-s= will insert a delay cookie for scheduled tasks
2960 See the previous section for why delay cookies may be useful.
2962 **** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-d= will insert a warning delay for deadline tasks
2964 =C-u C-u C-c C-d= now inserts a warning delay to deadlines.
2965 *** Calendar, diary and appts
2967 **** New variable [[doc:org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map][org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map]]
2969 By default, this new local map uses "." to go to today's date, like in the
2970 normal =M-x calendar RET=. If you want to deactivate this and to reassign
2971 the "@" key to =calendar-goto-today=, use this:
2973 #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
2974 ;; Unbind "." in Org's calendar:
2975 (define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map (kbd ".") nil)
2977 ;; Bind "@" to `calendar-goto-today':
2978 (define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map
2980 (lambda () (interactive) (org-eval-in-calendar '(calendar-goto-today))))
2983 **** In Org's calendar, =!= displays diary entries of the date at point
2985 This is useful when you want to check if you don't already have an
2986 appointment when setting new ones with =C-c .= or =C-c s=. =!= will
2987 call =diary-view-entries= and display the diary in a separate buffer.
2989 **** [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]]: only keep the descriptions of links
2991 [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]] returns diary information from Org files, but it returns it
2992 in a diary buffer, not in an Org mode buffer. When links are displayed,
2993 only show their description, not the full links.
2996 **** New agenda type =agenda*= and entry types =:scheduled* :deadline*=
2998 When defining agenda custom commands, you can now use =agenda*=: this will
2999 list entries that have both a date and a time. This is useful when you
3000 want to build a list of appointments.
3002 You can also set [[doc:org-agenda-entry-types][org-agenda-entry-types]] either globally or locally in
3003 each agenda custom command and use =:timestamp*= and/or =:deadline*= there.
3005 Another place where this is useful is your =.diary= file:
3007 : %%(org-diary :scheduled*) ~/org/rdv.org
3009 This will list only entries from =~/org/rdv.org= that are scheduled with a
3010 time value (i.e. appointments).
3012 **** New agenda sorting strategies
3014 [[doc:org-agenda-sorting-strategy][org-agenda-sorting-strategy]] allows these new sorting strategies:
3016 | Strategy | Explanations |
3017 |----------------+------------------------------------------|
3018 | timestamp-up | Sort by any timestamp, early first |
3019 | timestamp-down | Sort by any timestamp, late first |
3020 | scheduled-up | Sort by scheduled timestamp, early first |
3021 | scheduled-down | Sort by scheduled timestamp, late first |
3022 | deadline-up | Sort by deadline timestamp, early first |
3023 | deadline-down | Sort by deadline timestamp, late first |
3024 | ts-up | Sort by active timestamp, early first |
3025 | ts-down | Sort by active timestamp, late first |
3026 | tsia-up | Sort by inactive timestamp, early first |
3027 | tsia-down | Sort by inactive timestamp, late first |
3029 **** New options to limit the number of agenda entries
3031 You can now limit the number of entries in an agenda view. This is
3032 different from filters: filters only /hide/ the entries in the agenda,
3033 while limits are set while generating the list of agenda entries.
3035 These new options are available:
3037 - [[doc:org-agenda-max-entries][org-agenda-max-entries]] :: limit by number of entries.
3038 - [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] :: limit by number of TODOs.
3039 - [[doc:org-agenda-max-tags][org-agenda-max-tags]] :: limit by number of tagged entries.
3040 - [[doc:org-agenda-max-effort][org-agenda-max-effort]] :: limit by effort (minutes).
3042 For example, if you locally set [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] to 3 in an agenda
3043 view, the agenda will be limited to the first three todos. Other entries
3044 without a TODO keyword or beyond the third TODO headline will be ignored.
3046 When setting a limit (e.g. about an effort's sum), the default behavior is
3047 to exclude entries that cannot be checked against (e.g. entries that have
3048 no effort property.) To include other entries too, you can set the limit
3049 to a negative number. For example =(setq org-agenda-max-tags -3)= will not
3050 show the fourth tagged headline (and beyond), but it will also show
3051 non-tagged headlines.
3053 **** =~= in agenda view sets temporary limits
3055 You can hit =~= in the agenda to temporarily set limits: this will
3056 regenerate the agenda as if the limits were set. This is useful for
3057 example when you want to only see a list of =N= tasks, or a list of tasks
3058 that take only =N= minutes.
3060 **** "=" in agenda view filters by regular expressions
3062 You can now filter agenda entries by regular expressions using ~=~. =C-u
3063 == will filter entries out. Regexp filters are cumulative. You can set
3064 [[doc:org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset][org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset]] to suit your needs in each agenda view.
3066 **** =|= in agenda view resets all filters
3068 Since it's common to combine tag filters, category filters, and now regexp
3069 filters, there is a new command =|= to reset all filters at once.
3071 **** Allow writing an agenda to an =.org= file
3073 You can now write an agenda view to an =.org= file. It copies the
3074 headlines and their content (but not subheadings) into the new file.
3076 This is useful when you want to quickly share an agenda containing the full
3079 **** New commands to drag an agenda line forward (=M-<down>=) or backward (=M-<up>=)
3081 It sometimes handy to move agenda lines around, just to quickly reorganize
3082 your tasks, or maybe before saving the agenda to a file. Now you can use
3083 =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= to move the line forward or backward.
3085 This does not persist after a refresh of the agenda, and this does not
3086 change the =.org= files who contribute to the agenda.
3088 **** Use =%b= for displaying "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view
3090 [[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] now allows to use a =%b= formatter to tell Org
3091 to display "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view.
3093 This is useful when you want to display the task hierarchy in your agenda.
3095 **** Use =%l= for displaying the headline's level in the agenda view
3097 [[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] allows to use a =%l= formatter to tell Org to
3098 display entries with additional spaces corresponding to their level in the
3101 **** [[doc:org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] will ask before overwriting an existing file
3103 =M-x org-agenda-write RET= (or =C-c C-w= from an agenda buffer) used to
3104 overwrite preexisting file with the same name without confirmation. It now
3105 asks for a confirmation.
3107 **** New commands =M-m= and =M-*= to toggle (all) mark(s) for bulk action
3109 - [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle][org-agenda-bulk-toggle]] :: this command is bound to =M-m= and toggles
3110 the mark of the entry at point.
3112 - [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all][org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all]] :: this command is bound to =M-*= and
3113 toggles all the marks in the current agenda.
3115 **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level][org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level]]
3117 This option sets the maximum outline level to display in search view.
3118 E.g. when this is set to 1, the search view will only show headlines of
3121 **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds][org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds]]
3123 This allows to compare times using seconds instead of days when honoring
3124 options like =org-agenda-todo-ignore-*= in the agenda display.
3126 **** New option [[doc:org-agenda-entry-text-leaders][org-agenda-entry-text-leaders]]
3128 This allows you to get rid of the ">" character that gets added in front of
3129 entries excerpts when hitting =E= in the agenda view.
3131 **** New formatting string for past deadlines in [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]
3133 The default formatting for past deadlines is ="%2d d. ago: "=, which makes
3134 it explicit that the deadline is in the past. You can configure this via
3135 [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]. Note that the width of the formatting
3136 string is important to keep the agenda alignment clean.
3138 **** New allowed value =repeated-after-deadline= for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]]
3140 When [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] is set to
3141 =repeated-after-deadline=, the agenda will skip scheduled items if they are
3142 repeated beyond the current deadline.
3144 **** New option for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled][org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled]]
3146 This variable may be set to nil, t, the symbol `pre-scheduled', or a number
3147 which will then give the number of days before the actual deadline when the
3148 prewarnings should resume. The symbol `pre-scheduled' eliminates the
3149 deadline prewarning only prior to the scheduled date.
3151 Read the full docstring for details.
3153 **** [[doc:org-class][org-class]] now supports holiday strings in the skip-weeks parameter
3155 For example, this task will now be skipped only on new year's day:
3158 : <%%(org-class 2012 1 1 2013 12 12 2 "New Year's Day")>
3161 **** Allow =C-1= as a prefix for [[doc:org-agenda-capture][org-agenda-capture]] and [[doc:org-capture][org-capture]]
3163 With a =C-1= prefix, the capture mechanism will use the =HH:MM= value at
3164 point (if any) or the current =HH:MM= time as the default time for the
3167 **** Expand keywords within %(sexp) placeholder in capture templates
3169 If you use a =%:keyword= construct within a =%(sexp)= construct, Org will
3170 expand the keywords before expanding the =%(sexp)=.
3172 **** Allow to contextualize capture (and agenda) commands by checking the name of the buffer
3174 [[doc:org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] and [[doc:org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]]
3175 allow you to define what capture templates and what agenda commands should
3176 be available in various contexts. It is now possible for the context to
3177 check against the name of the buffer.
3180 Using =#+TAGS: { Tag1 : Tag2 Tag3 }= will define =Tag1= as a /group tag/
3181 (note the colon after =Tag1=). If you search for =Tag1=, it will return
3182 headlines containing either =Tag1=, =Tag2= or =Tag3= (or any combination
3185 You can use group tags for sparse tree in an Org buffer, for creating
3186 agenda views, and for filtering.
3188 See https://orgmode.org/org.html#Tag-groups for details.
3192 **** =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= will ignore non-core link functions
3194 Org knows how to store links from Org buffers, from info files and from
3195 other Emacs buffers. Org can be taught how to store links from any buffer
3196 through new link protocols (see [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Adding-hyperlink-types]["Adding hyperlink types"]] in the manual.)
3198 Sometimes you want Org to ignore added link protocols and store the link
3199 as if the protocol was not known.
3201 You can now do this with =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET=.
3203 **** =C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= on an active region will store links for each lines
3205 Imagine for example that you want to store a link for every message in a
3206 Gnus summary buffer. In that case =C-x h C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link
3207 RET= will store a link for every line (i.e. message) if the region is
3210 **** =C-c C-M-l= will add a default description for links which don't have one
3212 =C-c C-M-l= inserts all stored links. If a link does not have a
3213 description, this command now adds a default one, so that we are not mixing
3214 with-description and without-description links when inserting them.
3216 **** No curly braces to bracket links within internal links
3218 When storing a link to a headline like
3220 : * See [[https://orgmode.org][Org website]]
3222 [[doc:org-store-link][org-store-link]] used to convert the square brackets into curly brackets.
3223 It does not anymore, taking the link description or the link path, when
3224 there is no description.
3227 **** Switching between #+TBLFM lines
3229 If you have several =#+TBLFM= lines below a table, =C-c C-c= on a line will
3230 apply the formulas from this line, and =C-c C-c= on another line will apply
3231 those other formulas.
3233 **** You now use "nan" for empty fields in Calc formulas
3235 If empty fields are of interest, it is recommended to reread the section
3236 [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc][3.5.2 Formula syntax for Calc]] of the manual because the description for the
3237 mode strings has been clarified and new examples have been added towards
3240 **** Handle localized time-stamps in formulas evaluation
3242 If your =LOCALE= is set so that Org time-stamps use another language than
3243 english, and if you make time computations in Org's table, it now works by
3244 internally converting the time-stamps with a temporary =LOCALE=C= before
3247 **** New lookup functions
3249 There are now three lookup functions:
3251 - [[doc:org-loopup-first][org-loopup-first]]
3252 - [[doc:org-loopup-last][org-loopup-last]]
3253 - [[doc:org-loopup-all][org-loopup-all]]
3255 See [[https://orgmode.org/org.html#Lookup-functions][the manual]] for details.
3256 *** Startup keywords
3258 These new startup keywords are now available:
3260 | Startup keyword | Option |
3261 |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
3262 | =#+STARTUP: logdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer t)= |
3263 | =#+STARTUP: nologdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer nil)= |
3264 |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
3265 | =#+STARTUP: logstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed t)= |
3266 | =#+STARTUP: nologstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed nil)= |
3267 |----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
3268 | =#+STARTUP: latexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview t)= |
3269 | =#+STARTUP: nolatexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview nil)= |
3273 **** New option [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]]
3275 E.g. if [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] is set to 5, time is 14:47 and you
3276 clock in: then the clock starts at 14:45. If you clock out within the next
3277 5 minutes, the clock line will be removed; if you clock out 8 minutes after
3278 your clocked in, the clock out time will be 14:50.
3280 **** New option [[doc:org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations][org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations]]
3282 When non-nil, =C-c C-x C-d= uses effort durations. E.g., by default, one
3283 day is considered to be a 8 hours effort, so a task that has been clocked
3284 for 16 hours will be displayed as during 2 days in the clock display or in
3287 See [[doc:org-effort-durations][org-effort-durations]] on how to set effort durations and
3288 [[doc:org-time-clocksum-format][org-time-clocksum-format]] for more on time clock formats.
3290 **** New option [[doc:org-clock-x11idle-program-name][org-clock-x11idle-program-name]]
3292 This allows to set the name of the program which prints X11 idle time in
3293 milliseconds. The default is to use =x11idle=.
3295 **** New option [[doc:org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time][org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time]]
3297 When non-nil, use the last clock out time for [[doc:org-todo][org-todo]]. Note that this
3298 option has precedence over the combined use of [[doc:org-use-effective-time][org-use-effective-time]] and
3299 [[doc:org-extend-today-until][org-extend-today-until]].
3301 **** =S-<left/right>= on a clocksum column will update the sum by updating the last clock
3302 **** =C-u 3 C-S-<up/down>= will update clock timestamps synchronously by 3 units
3303 **** New parameter =:wstart= for clocktables to define the week start day
3304 **** New parameter =:mstart= to state the starting day of the month
3305 **** Allow relative times in clocktable tstart and tend options
3306 **** The clocktable summary is now a caption
3307 **** =:tstart= and =:tend= and friends allow relative times like "<-1w>" or "<now>"
3310 **** You can now use =C-c C-k= for [[doc:org-edit-src-abort][org-edit-src-abort]]
3312 This allows you to quickly cancel editing a source block.
3314 **** =C-u C-u M-x org-babel-tangle RET= tangles by the target file of the block at point
3316 This is handy if you want to tangle all source code blocks that have the
3317 same target than the block at point.
3319 **** New options for auto-saving the base buffer or the source block editing buffer
3321 When [[doc:org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save][org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save]] is set to =t=, editing a source block
3322 in a new window will turn on =auto-save-mode= and save the code in a new
3323 file under the same directory than the base Org file.
3325 When [[doc:org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay][org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay]] is set to a number of minutes =N=,
3326 the base Org buffer will be saved after this number of minutes of idle
3329 **** New =:post= header argument post-processes results
3331 This header argument may be used to pass the results of the current
3332 code block through another code block for post-processing. See the
3333 manual for a usage example.
3335 **** Commented out heading are ignored when collecting blocks for tangling
3337 If you comment out a heading (with =C-c ;= anywhere on the heading or in
3338 the subtree), code blocks from within this heading are now ignored when
3339 collecting blocks for tangling.
3341 **** New option [[doc:org-babel-hash-show-time][org-babel-hash-show-time]] to show a time-stamp in the result hash
3342 **** Do not ask for confirmation if cached value is current
3344 Do not run [[doc:org-babel-confirm-evaluate][org-babel-confirm-evaluate]] if source block has a cache and the
3345 cache value is current as there is no evaluation involved in this case.
3346 **** =ob-sql.el= and =ob-python.el= have been improved.
3347 **** New Babel files only need to =(require 'ob)=
3349 When writing a new Babel file, you now only need to use =(require 'ob)=
3350 instead of requiring each Babel library one by one.

3382 *** Spanish translation of the Org guide by David Arroyo Menéndez
3384 David (and others) translated the Org compact guide in spanish:
3386 You can read the [[https://orgmode.org/worg/orgguide/orgguide.es.pdf][PDF guide]].
3388 *** ~poporg.el~ and ~outorg.el~
3390 Two new libraries (~poporg.el~ by François Pinard and ~outorg.el~ by
3391 Thorsten Jolitz) now enable editing of comment-sections from source-code
3392 buffers in temporary Org-mode buffers, making the full editing power of
3393 Org-mode available. ~outorg.el~ comes together with ~outshine.el~ and
3394 ~navi-mode.el~, two more libraries by Thorsten Jolitz with the goal to give
3395 source-code buffers the /look & feel/ of Org-mode buffers while greatly
3396 improving navigation and structure editing. A detailed description can be
3397 found here: https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html
3399 Here are two screencasts demonstrating Thorsten's tools:
3401 - [[http://youtu.be/nqE6YxlY0rw]["Modern conventions for Emacs Lisp files"]]
3402 - [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v%3DII-xYw5VGFM][Exploring Bernt Hansen's Org-mode tutorial with 'navi-mode']]
3404 *** MobileOrg for iOS
3406 MobileOrg for iOS back in the App Store The 1.6.0 release was focused on
3407 the new Dropbox API and minor bug fixes but also includes a new ability to
3408 launch in Capture mode. Track development and contribute [[https://github.com/MobileOrg/mobileorg/issues][on github]].
3412 ** New option [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]]
3414 [[doc::org-use-tag-inheritance][org-use-tag-inheritance]] controls whether tags are inherited when
3415 org-tags-view is called (either in =tags=, =tags-tree= or =tags-todo=
3418 When generating other agenda types such as =agenda=, =todo= and
3419 =todo-tree=, tags inheritance is not used when selecting the entries
3420 to display. Still, you might want to have all tag information correct
3421 in the agenda buffer, e.g. for tag filtering. In that case, add the
3422 agenda type to this variable.
3424 Setting this variable to nil should considerably speeds up the agenda
3427 Note that the default was to display inherited tags in the agenda
3428 lines even if `org-use-tag-inheritance' was nil. The default is now
3429 to *never* display inherited tags in agenda lines, but to /know/ about
3430 them when the agenda type is listed in [[doc::org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance][org-agenda-use-tag-inheritance]].
3432 ** New default value nil for [[doc::org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks][org-agenda-dim-blocked-tasks]]
3434 Using `nil' as the default value speeds up the agenda generation. You
3435 can hit `#' (or `C-u #') in agenda buffers to temporarily dim (or turn
3436 invisible) blocked tasks.
3438 ** New speedy keys for [[doc::org-speed-commands-default][org-speed-commands-default]]
3440 You can now use `:' (instead of `;') for setting tags---this is
3441 consistent with using the `:' key in agenda view.
3443 You can now use `=' for [[doc::org-columns][org-columns]].
3445 ** =org-float= is now obsolete, use =diary-float= instead
3446 ** No GPL manual anymore
3448 There used to be a GPL version of the Org manual, but this is not the
3449 case anymore, the Free Software Foundation does not permit this.
3451 The GNU FDL license is now included in the manual directly.
3453 ** Enhanced compatibility with Emacs 22 and XEmacs
3455 Thanks to Achim for his work on enhancing Org's compatibility with
3456 various Emacsen. Things may not be perfect, but Org should work okay
3457 in most environments.
3461 ** New ELPA repository for Org packages
3463 You can now add the Org ELPA repository like this:
3465 #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
3466 (add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/") t)
3469 It contains both the =org-*.tar= package (the core Org distribution, also
3470 available through https://elpa.gnu.org) and the =org-plus*.tar= package (the
3471 extended Org distribution, with non-GNU packages from the =contrib/=
3474 See https://orgmode.org/elpa/

3494 ** New package and Babel language
3496 *** =org-eshell.el= by Konrad Hinsen is now in Org
3498 =org-eshell.el= allows you to create links from [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eshell/index.html][Eshell]].
3500 *** Support for execution of Scala code blocks (see ob-scala.el)
3501 *** Support for execution of IO code blocks (see ob-io.el)
3503 ** Incompatible changes
3505 - If your code relies on =org-write-agenda=, please use
3506 [[doc::org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] from now on.
3508 - If your code relies on =org-make-link=, please use =concat=
3511 - =org-link-to-org-use-id= has been renamed to
3512 =org-id-link-to-org-use-id= and its default value is nil. The
3513 previous default was =create-if-interactive-and-no-custom-id=.
3515 ** New features and user-visible changes
3519 =org-element.el= is a toolbox for parsing and analyzing "elements"
3520 in an Org-mode buffer. This has been written by Nicolas Goaziou
3521 and has been tested for quite some time. It is now part of Org's
3522 core and many core functions rely on this package.
3524 Two functions might be particularly handy for users:
3525 =org-element-at-point= and =org-element-context=.
3527 See the docstrings for more details.
3529 Below is a list of editing and navigating commands that now rely
3530 on =org-element.el=.
3532 **** [[doc::org-fill-paragraph][org-fill-paragraph]] has been completely rewritten
3534 The filling mechanisms now rely on org-element, trying to do the
3535 right thing on each element in various contexts. E.g. filling in
3536 a list item will preserve indentation; filling in message-mode
3537 will fall back on the relevant filling functions; etc.
3539 **** [[doc::org-metaup][org-metaup]] and [[doc::org-metadown][org-metadown]] will drag the element backward/forward
3541 If you want to get the old behavior (i.e. moving a line up and
3542 down), you can first select the line as an active region, then
3543 =org-metaup= or =org-metadown= to move the region backward or
3544 forward. This also works with regions bigger than just one line.
3546 **** [[doc::org-up-element][org-up-element]] and [[doc::org-down-element][org-down-element]] (respectively =C-c C-^= and =C-c C-_=)
3548 This will move the point up/down in the hierarchy of elements.
3550 **** [[doc::org-backward-element][org-backward-element]] and [[doc::org-forward-element][org-forward-element]] (respectively =M-{= and =M-}=)
3552 This will move the point backward/forward in the hierarchy of
3555 **** [[doc::org-narrow-to-element][org-narrow-to-element]] will narrow to the element at point
3556 **** [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] will mark the element at point
3558 This command is bound to =M-h= and will mark the element at
3559 point. If the point is at a paragraph, it will mark the
3560 paragraph. If the point is at a list item, it will mark the list
3563 Note that if point is at the beginning of a list, it will mark
3566 To mark a subtree, you can either use =M-h= on the headline
3567 (since there is no ambiguity about the element you're at) or
3568 [[doc::org-mark-subtree][org-mark-subtree]] (=C-c @=) anywhere in the subtree.
3570 Invoking [[doc::org-mark-element][org-mark-element]] repeatedly will try to mark the next
3571 element on top of the previous one(s). E.g. hitting =M-h= twice
3572 on a headline will mark the current subtree and the next one on
3577 **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]]
3579 There is a new option =org-agenda-sticky= which enables "sticky"
3580 agendas. Sticky agendas remain opened in the background so that
3581 you don't need to regenerate them each time you hit the
3582 corresponding keystroke. This is a big time saver.
3584 When [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is =non-nil=, the agenda buffer will be
3585 named using the agenda key and its description. In sticky
3586 agendas, the =q= key will just bury the agenda buffers and
3587 further agenda commands will show existing buffer instead of
3588 generating new ones.
3590 If [[doc::org-agenda-sticky][org-agenda-sticky]] is set to =nil=, =q= will kill the single
3593 **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]]
3595 Setting this option allows you to define specific context where
3596 agenda commands should be available from. For example, when set
3599 #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
3600 (setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
3601 '(("p" (in-file . "\\.txt"))))
3604 then the =p= agenda command will only be available from buffers
3605 visiting *.txt files. See the docstring and the manual for more
3606 details on how to use this.
3608 **** Changes in bulk actions
3610 The set of commands starting with =k ...= as been deleted and the
3611 features have been merged into the "bulk action" feature.
3613 After you marked some entries in the agenda, if you call =B s=,
3614 the agenda entries will be rescheduled using the date at point if
3615 on a date header. If you are on an entry with a timestamp, you
3616 will be prompted for a date to reschedule your marked entries to,
3617 using the timestamp at point as the default prompt.
3619 You can now use =k= to capture the marked entry and use the date
3620 at point as an overriding date for the capture template.
3622 To bind this behavior to =M-x org-capture RET= (or its
3623 keybinding), set the new option [[doc::org-capture-use-agenda-date][org-capture-use-agenda-date]] to
3626 **** =N= and =P= in the agenda will move to the next/previous item
3628 **** New command [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-all][org-agenda-bulk-mark-all]] to mark all items
3630 This new command is bound to =*= in agenda mode.
3632 There is also a new option [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-mark-char][org-agenda-bulk-mark-char]] to set the
3633 character to use as a mark for bulk actions.
3635 **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-persistent-marks][org-agenda-persistent-marks]]
3637 When set to =non-nil=, marks will remain visible after a bulk
3638 action. You can temporarily toggle this by pressing =p= when
3639 invoking [[doc::org-agenda-bulk-action][org-agenda-bulk-action]]. Marks are deleted if your
3640 rebuild the agenda buffer or move to another date/span (e.g. with
3643 **** New option [[doc::org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-timestamp-if-deadline-is-shown]]
3645 =Non-nil= means skip timestamp line if same entry shows because
3648 In the agenda of today, an entry can show up multiple times
3649 because it has both a plain timestamp and has a nearby deadline.
3650 When this variable is t, then only the deadline is shown and the
3651 fact that the entry has a timestamp for or including today is not
3652 shown. When this variable is =nil=, the entry will be shown
3655 **** New =todo-unblocked= and =nottodo-unblocked= skip conditions
3657 See the [[https://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=f426da][git commit]] for more explanations.
3659 **** Allow category filtering in the agenda
3661 You can now filter the agenda by category. Pressing "<" will
3662 filter by the category of the item on the current line, and
3663 pressing "<" again will remove the filter. You can combine tag
3664 filters and category filters.
3666 You can use =org-agenda-category-filter= in your custom agenda
3667 views and =org-agenda-category-filter-preset= in your main
3670 See also the new command [[doc::org-agenda-filter-by-top-category][org-agenda-filter-by-top-category]]:
3671 hitting =^= will filter by "Top" category: only show entries that
3672 are of the same category than the Top category of the entry at
3677 **** Inserting links
3679 When inserting links through [[doc::org-insert-link][org-insert-link]], the description is
3680 now displayed first, followed by the literal link, as the
3681 description is often more useful when you look for the link you
3684 Completion now complete both literal links and description. If
3685 you complete a description, the literal link and its description
3686 will be inserted directly, whereas when you complete the literal
3687 link, you will be prompted for a description (as with Org 7.8.)
3689 In the completion buffer, links to the current buffer are now
3692 **** New templates =%h= and =%(sexp)= for abbreviated links
3694 On top of =%s= template, which is replaced by the link tag in
3695 abbreviated links, you can now use =%h= (which does the same than =%s=
3696 but does not hexify the tag) and =%(sexp)= (which can run a function
3697 that takes the tag as its own argument.)
3699 **** New link type =help=
3701 You can now create links from =help= buffers.
3703 For example, if you request help for the command [[doc::org-agenda][org-agenda]] with
3704 =C-h f org-agenda RET=, creating a link from this buffer will let
3705 you go back to the same buffer.
3707 **** New command [[doc::org-insert-all-links][org-insert-all-links]]
3709 This will insert all links as list items. With a universal
3710 prefix argument, links will not be deleted from the variable
3713 This new command is bound to =C-c C-M-l=.
3715 **** New option [[doc::org-url-hexify-p][org-url-hexify-p]]
3717 When set to =nil=, the =URL= part of a link will not be hexified.
3719 **** Org can now open multiple shell links
3721 **** New option [[doc::org-doi-server-url][org-doi-server-url]] to specify an alternate DOI server
3723 **** RET now follows time stamps links
3727 **** [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] and =org-archive-*= can now loop in the active region
3729 When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, using
3730 [[doc::org-todo][org-todo]] or =org-archive-*= commands in the active region will
3731 loop over headlines. This is handy if you want to set the TODO
3732 keyword for several items, or archive them quickly.
3734 **** You can now set tags for headlines in a region
3736 If [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is =non-nil=, then
3737 selecting the region and hitting =C-c C-q= will set the tags for
3738 all headlines in the region.
3740 **** New command [[doc::org-insert-drawer][org-insert-drawer]] to insert a drawer interactively
3742 **** Comments start with "^[ \t]*# " anywhere on a line
3744 Note that the space after the hashtag is mandatory. Comments
3745 with "^#+" are not supported anymore.
3747 **** New speed key =#= to toggle the COMMENT cookie on a headline
3749 **** =indent-region-function= is now set to [[doc::org-indent-region][org-indent-region]]
3751 =C-M-\= should now produce useful results.
3753 You can unindent the buffer with [[doc::org-unindent-buffer][org-unindent-buffer]].
3755 **** New option [[doc::org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree][org-allow-promoting-top-level-subtree]]
3757 When =non-nil=, =S-M-<left>= will promote level-1 subtrees
3758 containing other subtrees. The level-1 headline will be
3759 commented out. You can revert to the previous state with =M-x
3764 **** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-z= for [[doc::org-clock-resolve][org-clock-resolve]]
3766 **** New keybinding =C-c C-x C-q= for [[doc::org-clock-cancel][org-clock-cancel]]
3768 **** New command [[doc::org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] to clock in the last clocked item
3770 This command is bound to =C-c C-x C-x= and will clock in the last
3771 clocked entry, if any.
3773 **** =C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-out][org-clock-out]] =RET= now prompts for a state to switch to
3775 **** =S-M-<up/down>= on a clock timestamps adjusts the previous/next clock
3777 **** New option [[doc::org-clock-continuously][org-clock-continuously]]
3779 When set to =nil=, clocking in a task will first try to find the
3780 last clocked out task and restart from when that task was clocked
3783 You can temporarily activate continuous clocking with =C-u C-u
3784 C-u M-x= [[doc::org-clock-in][org-clock-in]] =RET= (three universal prefix arguments)
3785 and =C-u C-u M-x= [[org-clock-in-last][org-clock-in-last]] =RET= (two universal prefix
3789 **** New option [[doc::org-clock-frame-title-format][org-clock-frame-title-format]]
3791 This option sets the value of =frame-title-format= when clocking
3794 **** New options for controlling the clockreport display
3796 [[doc::org-clock-file-time-cell-format][org-clock-file-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the file time
3797 cells in clockreport.
3799 [[doc::org-clock-total-time-cell-format][org-clock-total-time-cell-format]]: Format string for the total
3800 time cells in clockreport.
3803 **** New options for controlling the clock/timer display
3805 [[doc::org-clock-clocked-in-display][org-clock-clocked-in-display]]: control whether the current clock
3806 is displayed in the mode line and/or frame title.
3808 [[doc::org-timer-display][org-timer-display]]: control whether the current timer is displayed
3809 in the mode line and/or frame title.
3811 This allows the clock and timer to be displayed in the frame
3812 title instead of, or as well as, the mode line. This is useful
3813 for people with limited space in the mode line but with ample
3814 space in the frame title.
3818 **** New option [[doc::org-custom-properties][org-custom-properties]]
3820 The visibility of properties listed in this options can be turn
3821 on/off with [[doc::org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility][org-toggle-custom-properties-visibility]]. This might
3822 be useful for properties used by third-part tools or that you
3823 don't want to see temporarily.
3825 **** New command [[doc::org-redisplay-inline-images][org-redisplay-inline-images]]
3827 This will redisplay all images. It is bound to =C-c C-x C-M-v=.
3829 **** New entities in =org-entities.el=
3831 There are these new entities:
3833 : ("tilde" "\\~{}" nil "˜" "~" "~" "~")
3834 : ("slash" "/" nil "/" "/" "/" "/")
3835 : ("plus" "+" nil "+" "+" "+" "+")
3836 : ("under" "\\_" nil "_" "_" "_" "_")
3837 : ("equal" "=" nil "=" "=" "=" "=")
3838 : ("asciicirc" "\\textasciicircum{}" nil "^" "^" "^" "^")
3840 **** New face =org-list-dt= for definition terms
3841 **** New face =org-date-selected= for the selected calendar day
3842 **** New face value for =org-document-title=
3844 The face is back to a normal height.
3848 **** New speed command =:= to activate the column view
3849 **** New special property =CLOCKSUM_T= to display today's clocked time
3851 You can use =CLOCKSUM_T= the same way you use =CLOCKSUM=. It
3852 will display the time spent on tasks for today only.
3854 **** Use the =:COLUMNS:= property in columnview dynamic blocks
3856 If the =:COLUMNS:= is set in a subtree, the columnview dynamic
3857 block will use its value as the column format.
3859 **** Consider inline tasks when computing a sum
3861 *** Org Dates and Time Stamps
3863 **** Enhanced [[doc::org-sparse-tree][org-sparse-tree]]
3865 =C-c /= can now check for time ranges.
3867 When checking for dates with =C-c /= it is useful to change the
3868 type of dates that you are interested in. You can now do this
3869 interactively with =c= after =C-c /= and/or by setting
3870 [[doc::org-sparse-tree-default-date-type][org-sparse-tree-default-date-type]] to the default value you want.
3872 **** Support for hourly repeat cookies
3876 : SCHEDULED: <2012-08-20 lun. 08:00 +1h>
3878 if you want to add an hourly repeater to an entry.
3880 **** =C-u C-u C-c .= inserts a time-stamp with no prompt
3882 **** When (setq [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] 'time), accept days in the prompt
3884 "8am Wed" and "Wed 8am" are now acceptable values when entering a
3885 date from the prompt. If [[doc::org-read-date-prefer-future][org-read-date-prefer-future]] is set to
3886 =time=, this will produce the expected prompt indication.
3888 **** New option [[doc::org-datetree-add-timestamp][org-datetree-add-timestamp]]
3890 When set to =non-nil=, datetree entries will also have a
3891 timestamp. This is useful if you want to see these entries in a
3892 sparse tree with =C-c /=.
3896 **** New command [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]]
3898 M-x [[doc::org-capture-string][org-capture-string]] RET will prompt for a string and a capture
3899 template. The string will be used as an annotation for the
3900 template. This is useful when capturing in batch mode as it lets
3901 you define the content of the template without being in Emacs.
3903 **** New option [[doc::org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]]
3905 Setting this option allows you to define specific context where
3906 capture templates should be available from. For example, when
3909 #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
3910 (setq org-capture-templates-contexts
3911 '(("c" (in-mode . "message-mode"))))
3914 then the =c= capture template will only be available from
3915 =message-mode= buffers. See the docstring and the manual for
3916 more details on how to use this.
3918 **** New =%l= template to insert the literal link
3919 **** New option [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]]
3921 Org used to automatically add a bookmark with capture a note.
3922 You can now turn this on by setting [[doc::org-capture-bookmark][org-capture-bookmark]] to
3925 **** Expand =%<num>= escape sequences into text entered for <num>'th =%^{PROMPT}= escape
3927 See the manual for more explanations.
3929 **** More control over empty lines
3931 You can use =:empty-lines-before= and =:empty-lines-after= to
3932 control the insertion of empty lines. Check the manual for more
3935 **** New hook [[doc::org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook][org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook]]
3937 This new hook runs before the finalization process starts.
3941 **** New functions =orgtbl-to-table.el= and =orgtbl-to-unicode=
3943 =orgtbl-to-table.el= convert the table to a =table.el= table, and
3944 =orgtbl-to-unicode= will use =ascii-art-to-unicode.el= (when
3945 available) to print beautiful tables.
3947 **** [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]] now a bit clever about the target format
3949 When you specify a file name like =table.csv=, [[doc::org-table-export][org-table-export]]
3950 will now suggest =orgtbl-to-csv= the default method for exporting
3953 **** New option [[doc::org-export-date-timestamp-format][org-export-date-timestamp-format]]
3955 The option allows to set a time string format for Org timestamps
3956 in the #+DATE option.
3958 **** LaTeX: New options for exporting table rules :tstart, :hline and :tend
3960 See [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-hline][org-export-latex-tables-hline]] and [[doc::org-export-latex-tables-tend][org-export-latex-tables-tend]].
3962 **** LaTeX: You can now set =:hfmt= from =#+ATTR_LaTeX=
3963 **** Beamer: Add support and keybinding for the =exampleblock= environment
3965 Add support for these languages in [[doc::org-export-language-setup][org-export-language-setup]].
3966 More languages are always welcome.
3968 **** Beamer: New option [[doc::org-beamer-inherited-properties][org-beamer-inherited-properties]]
3970 This option allows Beamer export to inherit some properties.
3971 Thanks to Carsten for implementing this.
3973 **** ODT: Add support for ODT export in org-bbdb.el
3974 **** ODT: Add support for indented tables (see [[https://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=e9fd33][this commit]] for details)
3975 **** ODT: Improve the conversion from ODT to other formats
3976 **** ASCII: Swap the level-1/level-2 characters to underline the headlines
3977 **** Support for Chinese, simplified Chinese, Russian, Ukrainian and Japanese
3978 **** HTML: New option [[doc::org-export-html-date-format-string][org-export-html-date-format-string]]
3980 Format string to format the date and time in HTML export. Thanks
3981 to Sébastien Vauban for this patch.
3985 **** New =:results drawer= parameter
3987 =:results drawer= replaces =:results wrap=, which is deprecated but still
3990 **** =:results org= now put results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block
3992 =:results org= used to put results in a =#+BEGIN_ORG= block but it now puts
3993 results in a =#+BEGIN_SRC org= block, with comma-escaped lines.
3995 =#+BEGIN_ORG= blocks are obsolete.
3997 **** Exporting =#+BEGIN_SRC org= blocks exports the code
3999 It used to exports the results of the code.
4003 **** New menu entry for [[doc::org-refile][org-refile]]
4004 **** Allow capturing to encrypted entries
4006 If you capture to an encrypted entry, it will be decrypted before
4007 inserting the template then re-encrypted after finalizing the capture.
4009 **** Inactive timestamps are now handled in tables
4011 Calc can do computation on active time-stamps like <2012-09-29 sat.>.
4012 Inactive time-stamps in a table's cell are now internally deactivated so
4013 that Calc formulas can operate on them.
4015 **** [[doc::org-table-number-regexp][org-table-number-regexp]] can now accept comma as decimal mark
4016 **** Org allows a new property =APPT_WARNTIME=
4018 You can set it with the =W= speedy key or set it manually. When
4019 set, exporting to iCalendar and [[doc::org-agenda-to-appt][org-agenda-to-appt]] will use the
4020 value of this property as the number of minutes for the warning
4023 **** New command [[doc::org-inc-effort][org-inc-effort]]
4025 This will increment the effort value.
4027 It is bound to =C-c C-x E= and to =E= as a speedy command.
4029 **** Attach: Add support for creating symbolic links
4031 =org-attach-method= now supports a new method =lns=, allowing to
4032 attach symbolic links.
4034 **** Archive: you can now archive to a datetree
4036 **** New option [[doc::org-inlinetask-show-first-star][org-inlinetask-show-first-star]]
4038 =Non-nil= means display the first star of an inline task as
4039 additional marker. When =nil=, the first star is not shown.
4041 **** New option [[doc::org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory][org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory]]
4043 This lets you define the path for the =ltxpng/= directory.
4045 **** You can now use imagemagick instead of dvipng to preview LaTeX fragments
4046 **** You can now turn off [[doc::orgstruct++-mode][orgstruct++-mode]] safely
4047 **** =C-u C-c C-c= on list items to add check boxes
4049 =C-u C-c C-c= will add an empty check box on a list item.
4051 When hit from the top of the list, it will add check boxes for
4052 all top level list items.
4054 **** =org-list-ending-method= and =org-list-end-regexp= are now obsolete
4056 Fall back on using =org-list-end-re= only, which see.
4058 **** org-feed.el now expands =%(sexp)= templates
4059 **** New option [[doc::org-protocol-data-separator][org-protocol-data-separator]]
4061 **** New option [[doc::org-ditaa-jar-option][org-ditaa-jar-option]] to specify the ditaa jar file
4063 **** New possible value for [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]]
4065 When [[doc::org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region][org-loop-over-headlines-in-active-region]] is set to
4066 =start-level=, the command will loop over the active region but
4067 will only act upon entries that are of the same level than the
4068 first headline in the region.
4070 **** New option [[doc::org-habit-show-all-today][org-habit-show-all-today]]
4072 When set to =t=, show all (even unscheduled) habits on today's
4075 ** Important bug fixes
4077 *** M-TAB on options keywords perform completion correctly again
4079 If you hit =M-TAB= on keywords like =#+TITLE=, Org will try to
4080 perform completion with meaningful values.
4082 *** Add licenses to javascript embedded and external code snippets
4084 Embedded javascript code produced when exporting an Org file to
4085 HTML is now licensed under GPLv3 (or later), and the copyright is
4086 owned by the Free Software Foundation, Inc.
4088 The javascript code for embedding MathJax in the browser mentions
4089 the MathJax copyright and the Apache 2.0 license.
4091 The javascript code for embedding =org-injo.js= in the browser
4092 mentions the copyright of Sebastian Rose and the GPLv3 (or later)
4095 =org-export-html-scripts= is now a variable, so that you can adapt
4096 the code and the license to your needs.
4098 See https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html for
4099 explanations on why these changes were necessary.
4103 ** Incompatible changes
4105 *** Emacs 21 support has been dropped
4107 Do not use Org mode 7.xx with Emacs 21, use [[https://orgmode.org/org-6.36c.zip][version 6.36c]] instead.
4109 *** XEmacs support requires the XEmacs development version
4111 To use Org mode 7.xx with XEmacs, you need to run the developer
4112 version of XEmacs. We were about to drop XEmacs support entirely,
4113 but Michael Sperber stepped in and made changes to XEmacs that
4114 made it easier to keep the support. Thanks to Michael for this
4117 *** New keys for TODO sparse trees
4119 The key =C-c C-v= is now reserved for Org Babel action. TODO
4120 sparse trees can still be made with =C-c / t= (all not-done
4121 states) and =C-c / T= (specific states).
4123 *** The Agenda =org-agenda-ndays= is now obsolete
4125 The variable =org-agenda-ndays= is obsolete - please use
4126 =org-agenda-span= instead.
4128 Thanks to Julien Danjou for this.
4130 *** Changes to the intended use of =org-export-latex-classes=
4132 So far this variable has been used to specify the complete header
4133 of the LaTeX document, including all the =\usepackage= calls
4134 necessary for the document. This setup makes it difficult to
4135 maintain the list of packages that Org itself would like to call,
4136 for example for the special symbol support it needs.
4138 First of all, you can *opt out of this change* in the following
4139 way: You can say: /I want to have full control over headers, and I
4140 will take responsibility to include the packages Org needs/. If
4141 that is what you want, add this to your configuration and skip the
4142 rest of this section (except maybe for the description of the
4143 =[EXTRA]= place holder):
4145 #+begin_src emacs-lisp
4146 (setq org-export-latex-default-packages-alist nil
4147 org-export-latex-packages-alist nil)
4150 /Continue to read here if you want to go along with the modified
4153 There are now two variables that should be used to list the LaTeX
4154 packages that need to be included in all classes. The header
4155 definition in =org-export-latex-classes= should then not contain
4156 the corresponding =\usepackage= calls (see below).
4158 The two new variables are:
4160 1. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist= :: This is the
4161 variable where Org-mode itself puts the packages it needs.
4162 Normally you should not change this variable. The only
4163 reason to change it anyway is when one of these packages
4164 causes a conflict with another package you want to use. Then
4165 you can remove that packages and hope that you are not using
4166 Org-mode functionality that needs it.
4168 2. =org-export-latex-packages-alist= :: This is the variable where
4169 you can put the packages that you'd like to use across all
4172 The sequence how these customizations will show up in the LaTeX
4175 1. Header from =org-export-latex-classes=
4176 2. =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=
4177 3. =org-export-latex-packages-alist=
4178 4. Buffer-specific things set with =#+LaTeX_HEADER:=
4180 If you want more control about which segment is placed where, or
4181 if you want, for a specific class, have full control over the
4182 header and exclude some of the automatic building blocks, you can
4183 put the following macro-like place holders into the header:
4186 [DEFAULT-PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for default packages
4187 [NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES] do not include any of the default packages
4188 [PACKAGES] \usepackage statements for packages
4189 [NO-PACKAGES] do not include the packages
4190 [EXTRA] the stuff from #+LaTeX_HEADER
4191 [NO-EXTRA] do not include #+LaTeX_HEADER stuff
4194 If you have currently customized =org-export-latex-classes=, you
4195 should revise that customization and remove any package calls that
4196 are covered by =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. This
4197 applies to the following packages:
4215 If one of these packages creates a conflict with another package
4216 you are using, you can remove it from
4217 =org-export-latex-default-packages-alist=. But then you risk that
4218 some of the advertised export features of Org will not work
4221 You can also consider moving packages that you use in all classes
4222 to =org-export-latex-packages-alist=. If necessary, put the place
4223 holders so that the packages get loaded in the right sequence. As
4224 said above, for backward compatibility, if you omit the place
4225 holders, all the variables will dump their content at the end of
4228 *** The constant =org-html-entities= is obsolete
4230 Its content is now part of the new constant =org-entities=, which
4231 is defined in the file org-entities.el. =org-html-entities= was
4232 an internal variable, but it is possible that some users did write
4235 *** =org-bbdb-anniversary-format-alist= has changed
4237 Please check the docstring and update your settings accordingly.
4239 *** Deleted =org-mode-p=
4241 This function has been deleted: please update your code.
4243 ** Important new features
4245 *** New Org to ODT exporter
4247 Jambunathan's Org to ODT exporter is now part of Org.
4249 To use it, it `C-c C-e o' in an Org file. See the documentation
4250 for more information on how to customize it.
4252 *** org-capture.el is now the default capture system
4254 This replaces the earlier system org-remember. The manual only
4255 describes org-capture, but for people who prefer to continue to
4256 use org-remember, we keep a static copy of the former manual
4257 section [[https://orgmode.org/org-remember.pdf][chapter about remember]].
4259 The new system has a technically cleaner implementation and more
4260 possibilities for capturing different types of data. See
4261 [[http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/26441/focus%3D26441][Carsten's announcement]] for more details.
4263 To switch over to the new system:
4267 : M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET
4269 to get a translated version of your remember templates into the
4270 new variable =org-capture-templates=. This will "mostly" work,
4271 but maybe not for all cases. At least it will give you a good
4272 place to modify your templates. After running this command,
4273 enter the customize buffer for this variable with
4275 : M-x customize-variable RET org-capture-templates RET
4277 and convince yourself that everything is OK. Then save the
4280 2. Bind the command =org-capture= to a key, similar to what you did
4283 : (define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture)
4285 If your fingers prefer =C-c r=, you can also use this key once
4286 you have decided to move over completely to the new
4287 implementation. During a test time, there is nothing wrong
4288 with using both system in parallel.
4292 *** New Org libraries
4293 **** org-eshell.el (Konrad Hinsen)
4295 Implement links to eshell buffers.
4297 **** org-special-blocks (Carsten Dominik)
4299 This package generalizes the #+begin_foo and #+end_foo tokens.
4301 To use, put the following in your init file:
4304 (require 'org-special-blocks)
4307 The tokens #+begin_center, #+begin_verse, etc. existed
4308 previously. This package generalizes them (at least for the
4309 LaTeX and html exporters). When a #+begin_foo token is
4310 encountered by the LaTeX exporter, it is expanded
4311 into \begin{foo}. The text inside the environment is not
4312 protected, as text inside environments generally is.
4313 When #+begin_foo is encountered by the html exporter, a div with
4314 class foo is inserted into the HTML file. It is up to the user
4315 to add this class to his or her stylesheet if this div is to mean
4318 **** org-taskjuggler.el (Christian Egli)
4320 Christian Egli's /org-taskjuggler.el/ module is now part of Org.
4321 He also wrote a [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler.php][tutorial]] for it.
4323 **** org-ctags.el (Paul Sexton)
4325 Targets like =<<my target>>= can now be found by Emacs' etag
4326 functionality, and Org-mode links can be used to to link to
4327 etags, also in non-Org-mode files. For details, see the file
4330 This feature uses a new hook =org-open-link-functions= which will
4331 call function to do something special with text links.
4333 Thanks to Paul Sexton for this contribution.
4335 **** org-docview.el (Jan Böcker)
4337 This new module allows links to various file types using docview, where
4338 Emacs displays images of document pages. Docview link types can point
4339 to a specific page in a document, for example to page 131 of the
4342 : [[docview:~/.elisp/org/doc/org.pdf::131][Org-Mode Manual]]
4344 Thanks to Jan Böcker for this contribution.
4346 *** New Babel libraries
4348 - ob-picolisp.el (Thorsten Jolitz)
4349 - ob-fortran.el (Sergey Litvinov)
4350 - ob-shen.el (Eric Schulte)
4351 - ob-maxima.el (Eric S Fraga)
4352 - ob-java.el (Eric Schulte)
4353 - ob-lilypond.el (Martyn Jago)
4354 - ob-awk.el (Eric Schulte)
4356 ** Other new features and various enhancements
4360 **** Org-Bibtex -- major improvements
4362 Provides support for managing bibtex bibliographical references
4363 data in headline properties. Each headline corresponds to a
4364 single reference and the relevant bibliographic meta-data is
4365 stored in headline properties, leaving the body of the headline
4366 free to hold notes and comments. Org-bibtex is aware of all
4367 standard bibtex reference types and fields.
4369 The key new functions are
4371 - org-bibtex-check :: queries the user to flesh out all required
4372 (and with prefix argument optional) bibtex fields available
4373 for the specific reference =type= of the current headline.
4375 - org-bibtex-create :: Create a new entry at the given level,
4376 using org-bibtex-check to flesh out the relevant fields.
4378 - org-bibtex-yank :: Yank a bibtex entry on the kill ring as a
4379 formatted Org-mode headline into the current buffer
4381 - org-bibtex-export-to-kill-ring :: Export the current headline
4382 to the kill ring as a formatted bibtex entry.
4384 **** org-gnus.el now allows link creation from messages
4386 You can now create links from messages. This is particularly
4387 useful when the user wants to stored messages that he sends, for
4388 later check. Thanks to Ulf Stegemann for the patch.
4390 **** Modified link escaping
4392 David Maus worked on `org-link-escape'. See [[http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/37888][his message]]:
4394 : Percent escaping is used in Org mode to escape certain characters
4395 : in links that would either break the parser (e.g. square brackets
4396 : in link target oder description) or are not allowed to appear in
4397 : a particular link type (e.g. non-ascii characters in a http:
4400 : With this change in place Org will apply percent escaping and
4401 : unescaping more consistently especially for non-ascii characters.
4402 : Additionally some of the outstanding bugs or glitches concerning
4403 : percent escaped links are solved.
4405 Thanks a lot to David for this work.
4407 **** Make =org-store-link= point to directory in a dired buffer
4409 When, in a dired buffer, the cursor is not in a line listing a
4410 file, `org-store-link' will store a link to the directory.
4412 Patch by Stephen Eglen.
4414 **** Allow regexps in =org-file-apps= to capture link parameters
4416 The way extension regexps in =org-file-apps= are handled has
4417 changed. Instead of matching against the file name, the regexps
4418 are now matched against the whole link, and you can use grouping
4419 to extract link parameters which you can then use in a command
4420 string to be executed.
4422 For example, to allow linking to PDF files using the syntax
4423 =file:/doc.pdf::<page number>=, you can add the following entry
4427 Extension: \.pdf::\([0-9]+\)\'
4428 Command: evince "%s" -p %1
4431 Thanks to Jan Böcker for a patch to this effect.
4435 **** Allow relative time when scheduling/adding a deadline
4437 You can now use relative duration strings like "-2d" or "++3w"
4438 when calling =org-schedule= or =org-deadline=: it will schedule
4439 (or set the deadline for) the item respectively two days before
4440 today and three weeks after the current timestamp, if any.
4442 You can use this programmatically: =(org-schedule nil "+2d")=
4443 will work on the current entry.
4445 You can also use this while (bulk-)rescheduling and
4446 (bulk-)resetting the deadline of (several) items from the agenda.
4448 Thanks to Memnon Anon for a heads up about this!
4450 **** American-style dates are now understood by =org-read-date=
4452 So when you are prompted for a date, you can now answer like this
4455 2/5/3 --> 2003-02-05
4456 2/5 --> <CURRENT-YEAR>-02-05
4461 **** =org-agenda-custom-commands= has a default value
4463 This option used to be `nil' by default. This now has a default
4464 value, displaying an agenda and all TODOs. See the docstring for
4465 details. Thanks to Carsten for this.
4467 **** Improved filtering through =org-agenda-to-appt=
4469 The new function allows the user to refine the scope of entries
4470 to pass to =org-agenda-get-day-entries= and allows to filter out
4471 entries using a function.
4473 Thanks to Peter Münster for raising a related issue and to
4474 Tassilo Horn for this idea. Also thanks to Peter Münster for
4475 [[git:68ffb7a7][fixing a small bug]] in the final implementation.
4477 **** Allow ap/pm times in agenda time grid
4479 Times in the agenda can now be displayed in am/pm format. See
4480 the new variable =org-agenda-timegrid-use-ampm=. Thanks to
4481 C. A. Webber for a patch to this effect.
4483 **** Agenda: Added a bulk "scattering" command
4485 =B S= in the agenda buffer will cause tasks to be rescheduled a
4486 random number of days into the future, with 7 as the default.
4487 This is useful if you've got a ton of tasks scheduled for today,
4488 you realize you'll never deal with them all, and you just want
4489 them to be distributed across the next N days. When called with
4490 a prefix arg, rescheduling will avoid weekend days.
4492 Thanks to John Wiegley for this.
4496 **** Simplification of org-export-html-preamble/postamble
4498 When set to `t', export the preamble/postamble as usual, honoring
4499 the =org-export-email/author/creator-info= variables.
4501 When set to a formatting string, insert this string. See the
4502 docstring of these variable for details about available
4505 You can set =:html-preamble= in publishing project in the same
4506 way: `t' means to honor =:email/creator/author-info=, and a
4507 formatting string will insert a string.
4509 **** New exporters to Latin-1 and UTF-8
4511 While Ulf Stegemann was going through the entities list to
4512 improve the LaTeX export, he had the great idea to provide
4513 representations for many of the entities in Latin-1, and for all
4514 of them in UTF-8. This means that we can now export files rich
4515 in special symbols to Latin-1 and to UTF-8 files. These new
4516 exporters can be reached with the commands =C-c C-e n= and =C-c
4517 C-e u=, respectively.
4519 When there is no representation for a given symbol in the
4520 targeted coding system, you can choose to keep the TeX-macro-like
4521 representation, or to get an "explanatory" representation. For
4522 example, =\simeq= could be represented as "[approx. equal to]".
4523 Please use the variable =org-entities-ascii-explanatory= to state
4526 **** HTML export: Add class to outline containers using property
4528 The =HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS= property can now be used to add a
4529 class name to the outline container of a node in HTML export.
4531 **** Throw an error when creating an image from a LaTeX snippet fails
4533 This behavior can be configured with the new option variable
4534 =org-format-latex-signal-error=.
4536 **** Support for creating BEAMER presentations from Org-mode documents
4538 Org-mode documents or subtrees can now be converted directly in
4539 to BEAMER presentation. Turning a tree into a simple
4540 presentations is straight forward, and there is also quite some
4541 support to make richer presentations as well. See the [[https://orgmode.org/manual/Beamer-class-export.html#Beamer-class-export][BEAMER
4542 section]] in the manual for more details.
4544 Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the discussion about
4545 BEAMER support and how it should work. This was a great example
4546 for how this community can achieve a much better result than any
4551 **** Refile targets can now be cached
4553 You can turn on caching of refile targets by setting the variable
4554 =org-refile-use-cache=. This should speed up refiling if you
4555 have many eligible targets in many files. If you need to update
4556 the cache because Org misses a newly created entry or still
4557 offers a deleted one, press =C-0 C-c C-w=.
4559 **** New logging support for refiling
4561 Whenever you refile an item, a time stamp and even a note can be
4562 added to this entry. For details, see the new option
4565 Thanks to Charles Cave for this idea.
4569 **** In-buffer completion is now done using John Wiegley's pcomplete.el
4571 Thanks to John Wiegley for much of this code.
4575 **** New command =org-table-transpose-table-at-point=
4577 See the docstring. This hack from Juan Pechiar is now part of
4578 Org's core. Thanks to Juan!
4580 **** Display field's coordinates when editing it with =C-c `=
4582 When editing a field with =C-c `=, the field's coordinate will
4583 the displayed in the buffer.
4585 Thanks to Michael Brand for a patch to this effect.
4587 **** Spreadsheet computation of durations and time values
4589 If you want to compute time values use the =T= flag, either in
4590 Calc formulas or Elisp formulas:
4592 | Task 1 | Task 2 | Total |
4593 |--------+--------+---------|
4594 | 35:00 | 35:00 | 1:10:00 |
4595 #+TBLFM: @2$3=$1+$2;T
4597 Values must be of the form =[HH:]MM:SS=, where hours are
4600 Thanks to Martin Halder, Eric Schulte and Carsten for code and
4603 **** Implement formulas applying to field ranges
4605 Carsten implemented this field-ranges formulas.
4607 : A frequently requested feature for tables has been to be able to define
4608 : row formulas in a way similar to column formulas. The patch below allows
4615 : as the left hand side for table formulas in order to write a formula that
4616 : is valid for an entire column or for a rectangular section in a
4619 Thanks a lot to Carsten for this.
4621 **** Sending radio tables from org buffers is now allowed
4623 Org radio tables can no also be sent inside Org buffers. Also,
4624 there is a new hook which get called after a table has been sent.
4626 Thanks to Seweryn Kokot.
4630 **** Improved handling of lists
4632 Nicolas Goaziou extended and improved the way Org handles lists.
4634 1. Indentation of text determines again end of items in
4635 lists. So, some text less indented than the previous item
4636 doesn't close the whole list anymore, only all items more
4639 2. Alphabetical bullets are implemented, through the use of the
4640 variable `org-alphabetical-lists'. This also adds alphabetical
4641 counters like [@c] or [@W].
4643 3. Lists can now safely contain drawers, inline tasks, or various
4644 blocks, themselves containing lists. Two variables are
4645 controlling this: `org-list-forbidden-blocks', and
4646 `org-list-export-context'.
4648 4. Improve `newline-and-indent' (C-j): used in an item, it will
4649 keep text from moving at column 0. This allows to split text
4650 and make paragraphs and still not break the list.
4652 5. Improve `org-toggle-item' (C-c -): used on a region with
4653 standard text, it will change the region into one item. With a
4654 prefix argument, it will fallback to the previous behavior and
4655 make every line in region an item. It permits to easily
4656 integrate paragraphs inside a list.
4658 6. `fill-paragraph' (M-q) now understands lists. It can freely be
4659 used inside items, or on text just after a list, even with no
4660 blank line around, without breaking list structure.
4662 Thanks a lot to Nicolas for all this!
4664 *** Inline display of linked images
4666 Images can now be displayed inline. The key C-c C-x C-v does
4667 toggle the display of such images. Note that only image links
4668 that have no description part will be inlined.
4670 *** Implement offsets for ordered lists
4672 If you want to start an ordered plain list with a number different
4673 from 1, you can now do it like this:
4675 : 1. [@start:12] will star a lit a number 12
4677 *** Babel: code block body expansion for table and preview
4679 In org-babel, code is "expanded" prior to evaluation. I.e. the
4680 code that is actually evaluated comprises the code block contents,
4681 augmented with the extra code which assigns the referenced data to
4682 variables. It is now possible to preview expanded contents, and
4683 also to expand code during during tangling. This expansion takes
4684 into account all header arguments, and variables.
4686 A new keybinding `C-c M-b p' bound to `org-babel-expand-src-block'
4687 can be used from inside of a source code block to preview its
4688 expanded contents (which can be very useful for debugging).
4691 The expanded body can now be tangled, this includes variable
4692 values which may be the results of other source-code blocks, or
4693 stored in headline properties or tables. One possible use for this
4694 is to allow those using org-babel for their emacs initialization
4695 to store values (e.g. usernames, passwords, etc...) in headline
4696 properties or in tables.
4698 Org-babel now supports three new header arguments, and new default
4699 behavior for handling horizontal lines in tables (hlines), column
4700 names, and rownames across all languages.
4702 *** Editing Convenience and Appearance
4704 **** New command =org-copy-visible= (=C-c C-x v=)
4706 This command will copy the visible text in the region into the
4707 kill ring. Thanks to Florian Beck for this function and to
4708 Carsten for adding it to org.el and documenting it!
4710 **** Make it possible to protect hidden subtrees from being killed by =C-k=
4712 See the new variable =org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree=. This was a
4713 request by Scott Otterson.
4715 **** Implement pretty display of entities, sub-, and superscripts.
4717 The command =C-c C-x \= toggles the display of Org's special
4718 entities like =\alpha= as pretty unicode characters. Also, sub
4719 and superscripts are displayed in a pretty way (raised/lower
4720 display, in a smaller font). If you want to exclude sub- and
4721 superscripts, see the variable
4722 =org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts=.
4724 Thanks to Eric Schulte and Ulf Stegeman for making this possible.
4726 **** New faces for title, date, author and email address lines
4728 The keywords in these lines are now dimmed out, and the title is
4729 displayed in a larger font, and a special font is also used for
4730 author, date, and email information. This is implemented by the
4731 following new faces:
4733 =org-document-title=
4735 =org-document-info-keyword=
4737 In addition, the variable =org-hidden-keywords= can be used to
4738 make the corresponding keywords disappear.
4740 Thanks to Dan Davison for this feature.
4742 **** Simpler way to specify faces for tags and todo keywords
4744 The variables =org-todo-keyword-faces=, =org-tag-faces=, and
4745 =org-priority-faces= now accept simple color names as
4746 specifications. The colors will be used as either foreground or
4747 background color for the corresponding keyword. See also the
4748 variable =org-faces-easy-properties=, which governs which face
4749 property is affected by this setting.
4751 This is really a great simplification for setting keyword faces.
4752 The change is based on an idea and patch by Ryan Thompson.
4754 **** <N> in tables now means fixed width, not maximum width
4756 Requested by Michael Brand.
4758 **** Better level cycling function
4760 =TAB= in an empty headline cycles the level of that headline
4761 through likely states. Ryan Thompson implemented an improved
4762 version of this function, which does not depend upon when exactly
4763 this command is used. Thanks to Ryan for this improvement.
4765 **** Adaptive filling
4767 For paragraph text, =org-adaptive-fill-function= did not handle
4768 the base case of regular text which needed to be filled. This is
4769 now fixed. Among other things, it allows email-style ">"
4770 comments to be filled correctly.
4772 Thanks to Dan Hackney for this patch.
4774 **** `org-reveal' (=C-c C-r=) also decrypts encrypted entries (org-crypt.el)
4776 Thanks to Richard Riley for triggering this change.
4778 **** Better automatic letter selection for TODO keywords
4780 When all first letters of keywords have been used, Org now
4781 assigns more meaningful characters based on the keywords.
4783 Thanks to Mikael Fornius for this patch.
4787 **** Clock: Allow synchronous update of timestamps in CLOCK log
4789 Using =S-M-<up/down>= on CLOCK log timestamps will
4790 increase/decrease the two timestamps on this line so that
4791 duration will keep the same. Note that duration can still be
4792 slightly modified in case a timestamp needs some rounding.
4794 Thanks to Rainer Stengele for this idea.
4796 **** Localized clock tables
4798 Clock tables now support a new new =:lang= parameter, allowing
4799 the user to customize the localization of the table headers. See
4800 the variable =org-clock-clocktable-language-setup= which controls
4801 available translated strings.
4803 **** Show clock overruns in mode line
4805 When clocking an item with a planned effort, overrunning the
4806 planned time is now made visible in the mode line, for example
4807 using the new face =org-mode-line-clock-overrun=, or by adding an
4808 extra string given by =org-task-overrun-text=.
4810 Thanks to Richard Riley for a patch to this effect.
4812 **** Clock reports can now include the running, incomplete clock
4814 If you have a clock running, and the entry being clocked falls
4815 into the scope when creating a clock table, the time so far spent
4816 can be added to the total. This behavior depends on the setting
4817 of =org-clock-report-include-clocking-task=. The default is
4820 Thanks to Bernt Hansen for this useful addition.
4824 **** Improvements with inline tasks and indentation
4826 There is now a configurable way on how to export inline tasks.
4827 See the new variable =org-inlinetask-export-templates=.
4829 Thanks to Nicolas Goaziou for coding these changes.
4831 **** A property value of "nil" now means to unset a property
4833 This can be useful in particular with property inheritance, if
4834 some upper level has the property, and some grandchild of it
4835 would like to have the default settings (i.e. not overruled by a
4838 Thanks to Robert Goldman and Bernt Hansen for suggesting this
4841 **** New helper functions in org-table.el
4843 There are new functions to access and write to a specific table field.
4844 This is for hackers, and maybe for the org-babel people.
4849 org-table-current-line
4853 **** Archiving: Allow to reverse order in target node
4855 The new option =org-archive-reversed-order= allows to have
4856 archived entries inserted in a last-on-top fashion in the target
4859 This was requested by Tom.
4861 **** Org-reveal: Double prefix arg shows the entire subtree of the parent
4863 This can help to get out of an inconsistent state produced for
4864 example by viewing from the agenda.
4866 This was a request by Matt Lundin.
