From 91857aaebba92e3a690196b0a710f42e4ad0fc21 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Carsten Dominik Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 08:43:23 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Documentation updates. --- ORGWEBPAGE/Changes.org | 91 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 91 insertions(+) diff --git a/ORGWEBPAGE/Changes.org b/ORGWEBPAGE/Changes.org index cfab711b7..675824a8a 100644 --- a/ORGWEBPAGE/Changes.org +++ b/ORGWEBPAGE/Changes.org @@ -8,6 +8,97 @@ #+LINK_UP: index.html #+LINK_HOME: http://orgmode.org +* Version 6.02 + +** Details + +*** Search commands can now include archive files. + + If the value of the customization variable + =org-agenda-text-search-extra-files= contains the symbol + =agenda-archives= as the first element in the list, all + archive files of all agenda files will be added to the list + of files to search. This is relevant for the search view + =C-c a s=, as well as for the agenda files multi-occur + command =C-c a /=. + +*** Clock tables can include the archive files + + There are new values for the =:scope= parameter of a clock + table. This can now be =file-with-archives= and + =agenda-with-archives=, in order to collect information not + only from the file org agenda files, but also all archive + files that are currently used by these files. + +*** New operators for property searches + + Property searches can now choose a number of different + operators for comparing values. These operators are `=', + `<>', `<', `<=', `>', and `>='. + + When the search term uses the operator with plain number like + =+Effort>=2.7=, then the property value is converted to a + number and a numerical comparison takes place. + + When the search term uses a string on the right hand side of + the operator, a string comparison is done: =+PRIORITY<"C".= + + Finally, if the right hand side is enclosed in curly braces, + a regexp match is done: =aaa={regexp}=. You should use only + the `=' operator in this case. + + This was a simple change and should have been implemented a + long time ago - now it was finally triggered by a request + from Dan Davison. + +*** Orgtbl radio tables generalized. + + The options available for radio tables using orgtbl-mode have + been expanded. You may use several reception points and + formats for the same table, you may have special formatting + in the last line of the table, and many table parameters may + be functions, so that more general transformations are + possible. Jason Riedy provided a patch for this, and he will + hopefully come up with some examples. Thanks! + +*** Column view works now in XEmacs + + I had already given up on this, but Greg Chernev (who + implemented noutline.el for XEmacs and in this way kept Org + alive on XEmacs) has done it again and provided the patches + to make column view work under XEmacs. There are still some + problems, but the basics work and we will iron out the + remaining issues, hopefully soon. + +*** Summaries for columns in the agenda + + If any of the columns has a summary type defined, turning on + column view in the agenda will show summaries for these + columns. Org will first visit all relevant agenda files and + make sure that the computations of this property are up to + date. This is also true for the special =CLOCKSUM= property. + Org will then sum the values displayed in the agenda. In the + daily/weekly agenda, the sums will cover a single day, in all + other views they cover the entire block. It is vital to + realize that the agenda may show the same entry multiple + times (for example as scheduled and as a deadline), and it + may show two entries from the same hierarchy (for example a + /parent/ and it's /child/). In these cases, the summation in + the agenda will lead to incorrect results because some values + will count double. + +*** The special property Effort can be used for effort estimates + + If you want to plan your work in a very detailed way, or if + you need to produce offers with quotations of the estimated + work effort, you may want to assign effort estimates to + entries. If you are also clocking your work, you may later + want to compare the planned effort with the actual working + time. Effort estimates can now be stored in a special + property =Effort=, displayed side-to-side with clock sums, + and also be summed over a day, in order to show the planned + work load of a day. See the manual for more details. + * Version 6.01 This is a new major release, mostly because of structural changes -- 2.11.4.GIT
