See +the new variable =org-inlinetask-export-templates=. + +Thanks to Nicolas Goaziou for coding these changes. + +*** Agenda: Added a bulk "scattering" command + +=B S= in the agenda buffer will cause tasks to be rescheduled a random +number of days into the future, with 7 as the default. This is useful +if you've got a ton of tasks scheduled for today, you realize you'll +never deal with them all, and you just want them to be distributed +across the next N days. When called with a prefix arg, rescheduling +will avoid weekend days. + +Thanks to John Wiegley for this. + +*** In-buffer completion is now done using John Wiegleys pcomplete.el + +Thanks to John Wiegley for much of this code. + +*** Sending radio tables from org buffers is now allowed + +Org radio tables can no also be sent inside Org buffers. Also, +there is a new hook which get called after a table has been sent. + +Thanks to Seweryn Kokot. + +*** Command names shown in manual + +The reference manual now lists command names for most commands. +Thanks to Andreas Röhler who started this project. + +*** Allow ap/pm times in agenda time grid + +Times in the agenda can now be displayed in am/pm format. See the new +variable =org-agenda-timegrid-use-ampm=. Thanks to C. A. Webber for +a patch to this effect. + +*** Rewriten clock table code + +The entire clocktable code has been rewritten to add more options and +to make hacking time reports easier. + +Thanks to Erwin Vrolijk for a patch introducing clock tables for +quarters. + +*** Babel +**** Add =msosql= engine to sql code blocks +SQL code blocks can now be executed using the =myosql= engine on +Windows systems. + +Thanks to S√©bastien Vauban for this contribution. + +**** Python code blocks now accept a =preamble= header argument +This allows specification of coding declarations and library imports +which must take place in the beginning of a file of executed python +code (note this header argument is used during code block evaluation +unlike the =shebang= header argument which is used during tangling). +For example + +#+begin_src org + ,#+begin_src python :preamble # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- :return s + ,s = "√©" + ,#+end_src +#+end_src + +Thanks to Vincent Beffara for this idea. + +**** Code block name is shown during evaluation query +When the user is queried about the evaluation of a named code block +the name of the code block is now displayed. + +Thanks to Tom Dye for this suggestion. + +**** Clojure code blocks results insertion +The results of Clojure code blocks have been improved in two ways. +1. lazy sequences are now expanded for insertion into the Org-mode + buffer +2. pretty printing of results is now possible with both "code" and + "data" pretty print formats + +Thanks to Rick Moynihan for suggesting these changes. + +**** Python code blocks now accept a =:return= header argument +This alleviates the need to explicitly insert return statements into +the bode of Python code blocks. This change both +- allows the same python code blocks to be run both in sessions and + externally +- removes the floating =return= statements which violated python + syntax + +Thanks to Darlan Cavalcante for proposing this feature. + +**** =:results wrap= header argument wraps code block results +The new =:results wrap= wraps code blocks results in a custom +environment making it possible to offset their contents during +export. For example + +#+begin_src org + ,#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results wrap + , "code block results" + ,#+end_src + + ,#+results: + ,#+BEGIN_RESULT + ,: code block results + ,#+END_RESULT +#+end_src + +Thanks to S√©bastien Vauban for persistently suggesting this enhancement. + +**** Code block error buffer wiped clean between executions +Previously the code block error buffer accumulated errors making it +difficult to distinguish between previous and current errors. This +buffer is now cleaned before every interactive code block evaluation. + +**** Lists now recognized by code blocks +It is now possible for code blocks to both read and write list +contents from and to Org-mode buffers. For example + +#+begin_src org + ,#+results: a-list + ,- babel + ,- and + ,- org-mode + + ,#+source: a-list + ,#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var lst=a-list :results list + , (reverse lst) + ,#+end_src +#+end_src + +**** Calc added as a supported code block language +The Emacs Calc package can be used through =calc= code blocks allowing +both regular arithmetic operations as well as stack based +calculation. For example + +#+begin_src org + ,#+source: calc-stack + ,#+begin_src calc + , 8 + , 1 + , '+ + , 9 + , '* + ,#+end_src + + ,#+results: calc-stack + ,: 81 + + ,#+source: calc-arithmetic + ,#+begin_src calc :var in=calc-stack + , in / 9 + ,#+end_src + + ,#+results: calc-arithmetic + ,: 9 +#+end_src + +**** "org-babel-detangle" propagates change to source code files into code blocks +`org-babel-detangle' can be used to propagate changes to pure source +code files tangled from embedded code blocks in Org-mode files back to +the original code blocks in the Org-mode file. This can be used on +collaborative projects to keep embedded code blocks up to date with +edits made in pure source code files. + + + + + + + + * Version 7.02 :PROPERTIES: -:VISIBILITY: content :CUSTOM_ID: v7.02 :END: -- 2.11.4.GIT
