Please send Org bug reports to emacs-orgmode@gnu.org.
* Version 8.0.1
** Installation
Installation instructions have been updated and simplified.
If you have troubles installing or updating Org, focus on these
instructions:
- when updating via a =.zip/.tar.gz= file, you only need to set the
=load-path= in your =.emacs=. Set it before any other Org
customization that would call autoloaded Org functions.
- when updating by pulling Org's Git repository, make sure to create the
correct autoloads. You can do this by running =~$ make autoloads= (to
only create the autoloads) or by running =~$ make= (to also compile
the Emacs lisp files.) =~$ make help= and =~$ make helpall= gives you
detailed explanations.
- when updating through ELPA (either from GNU ELPA or from Org ELPA),
you have to install Org's ELPA package in a session where no Org
function has been called already.
When in doubt, run =M-x org-version RET= and see if you have a mixed-up
installation.
See http://orgmode.org/org.html#Installation for details.
** Incompatible changes
Org 8.0 is the most disruptive major version of Org.
If you configured export options, you will have to update some of them.
If you used =#+ATTR_*= keywords, the syntax of the attributes changed and
you will have to update them.
Below is a list of changes for which you need to take action.
See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html for the most recent version of
this list and for detailed instructions on how to migrate.
**** New export engine
Org 8.0 comes with a new export engine written by Nicolas Goaziou. This
export engine relies on ~org-element.el~ (Org's syntax parser), which was
already in Org's core. This new export engine triggered the rewriting of
/all/ export back-ends.
The most visible change is the export dispatcher, accessible through the
keybinding =C-c C-e=. By default, this menu only shows some of the
built-in export formats, but you can add more formats by loading them
directly (e.g., =(require 'ox-texinfo)= or by configuring the option
[[doc:org-export-backends][org-export-backends]].
More contributed back-ends are available from the =contrib/= directory, the
corresponding files start with the =ox-= prefix.
If you customized an export back-end (like HTML or LaTeX), you will need to
rename some options so that your customization is not lost. Typically, an
option starting with =org-export-html-= is now named =org-html-=. See the
manual for details and check [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html][this Worg page]] for directions.
**** New syntax for #+ATTR_HTML/LaTeX/... options
: #+ATTR_HTML width="200px"
should now be written
: #+ATTR_HTML :width 200px
Keywords like =#+ATTR_HTML= and =#+ATTR_LaTeX= are defined in their
respective back-ends, and the list of supported parameters depends on
each backend. See Org's manual for details.
**** ~org-remember.el~ has been removed
You cannot use =remember.el= anymore to capture notes.
Support for remember templates has been obsoleted since long, it is
now fully removed.
Use =M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET= to import your
remember templates into capture templates.
**** ~org-jsinfo.el~ has been merged into ~ox-html.el~
If you were requiring ~ox-jsinfo.el~ in your ~.emacs.el~ file, you
will have to remove this requirement from your initialization file.
**** Note for third-party developers
The name of the files for export back-end have changed: we now use the
prefix =ox-= for those files (like we use the =ob-= prefix for Babel
files.) For example ~org-html.el~ is now ~ox-html.el~.
If your code relies on these files, please update the names in your
code.
**** Packages moved from core to contrib
Since packages in Org's core are meant to be part of GNU Emacs, we try
to be minimalist when it comes to adding files into core. For 8.0, we
moved some contributions into the =contrib/= directory.
The rationale for deciding that these files should live in =contrib/=
is either because they rely on third-part softwares that are not
included in Emacs, or because they are not targetting a significant
user-base.
- org-colview-xemacs.el
- org-mac-message.el
- org-mew.el
- org-wl.el
- ox-freedmind.el
- ox-taskjuggler.el
Note that ~ox-freedmind.el~ has been rewritten by Jambunathan,
~org-mew.el~ has been enhanced by Tokuya Kameshima and
~ox-taskjuggler.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and others.
Also, the Taskjuggler exporter now uses TJ3 by default. John Hendy
wrote [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler3.html][a tutorial on Worg]] for the TJ3 export.
** New packages in core
*** ~ob-makefile.el~ by Eric Schulte and Thomas S. Dye
=ob-makefile.el= implements Org Babel support for Makefile tangling.
*** ~ox-man.el~ by Luis Anaya
=ox-man.el= allows you to export Org files to =man= pages.
*** ~ox-md.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou
=ox-md.el= allows you to export Org files to Markdown files, using the
vanilla [[http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/][Markdown syntax]].
*** ~ox-texinfo.el~ by Jonathan Leech-Pepin
=ox-texinfo.el= allows you to export Org files to [[http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/][Texinfo]] files.
** New packages in contrib

Also see [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#sec-8-12][this updated FAQ]] on how to display another character than "*"
for starting headlines.
*** ~org-favtable.el~ by Marc-Oliver Ihm
~org-favtable.el~ helps you to create and update a table of favorite
locations in org, keeping the most frequently visited lines right at
the top. This table is called "favtable". See the documentation on
[[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-favtable.html][Worg]].
*** ~ox-confluence.el~ by Sébastien Delafond
~ox-confluence.el~ lets you convert Org files to [[https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Confluence%2BWiki%2BMarkup][Confluence Wiki]] files.
*** ~ox-deck.el~ and ~ox-s5.el~ by Rick Frankel
[[http://imakewebthings.com/deck.js/][deck.js]] is a javascript library for displaying HTML ages as
presentations. ~ox-deck.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations
using =deck.js=.
[[http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/][s5]] is a set of scripts which also allows to display HTML pages as
presentations. ~ox-s5.el~ exports Org files to HTML presentations
using =s5=.
*** ~ox-groff.el~ by Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou
The [[http://www.gnu.org/software/groff/][groff]] (GNU troff) software is a typesetting package which reads
plain text mixed with formatting commands and produces formatted
output.
Luis Anaya and Nicolas Goaziou implemented ~ox-groff.el~ to allow
conversion from Org files to groff.
*** ~ox-koma-letter.el~ by Nicolas Goaziou and Alan Schmitt
This back-end allow to export Org pages to the =KOMA Scrlttr2= format.
*** ~ox-rss.el~ by Bastien
This back-end lets you export Org pages to RSS 2.0 feeds. Combined
with the HTML publishing feature, this allows you to build a blog
entirely with Org.
** New features
*** Export
**** New export generic options
If you use Org exporter, we advise you to re-read [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Exporting][the manual section about
it]]. It has been updated and includes new options.
Among the new/updated export options, three are of particular importance:
- [[doc:org-export-allow-bind-keywords][org-export-allow-bind-keywords]] :: This option replaces the old option
=org-export-allow-BIND= and the default value is =nil=, not =confirm=.
You will need to explicitely set this to =t= in your initialization
file if you want to allow =#+BIND= keywords.
- [[doc:org-export-with-planning][org-export-with-planning]] :: This new option controls the export of
=SCHEDULED:, DEADLINE:, CLOSED:= lines, and planning information is
now skipped by default during export. This use to be the job of
[[doc:org-export-with-timestamps][org-export-with-timestamps]], but this latter option has been given a
new role: it controls the export of /standalone time-stamps/. When
set to =nil=, Org will not export active and inactive time-stamps
standing on a line by themselves or within a paragraph that only
contains time-stamps.
To check if an option has been introduced or its default value changed in
Org 8.0, do =C-h v [option] RET= and check if the documentation says that
the variable has been introduced (or changed) in version 24.4 of Emacs.
**** Enhanced default stylesheet for the HTML exporter
See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-style-default][org-html-style-default]].
**** New tags, classes and ids for the HTML exporter
See the new default value of [[doc:org-html-divs][org-html-divs]].
**** Support for tikz pictures in LaTeX export
**** ~org-man.el~: New export function for "man" links
**** ~org-docview.el~: New export function for docview links
*** Structure editing
**** =C-u C-u M-RET= inserts a heading at the end of the parent subtree
**** Cycling to the =CONTENTS= view keeps inline tasks folded
[[doc:org-cycle-hook][org-cycle-hook]] as a new function [[doc:org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks][org-cycle-hide-inline-tasks]] which
prevents the display of inline tasks when showing the content of a subtree.
**** =C-c -= in a region makes a list item for each line
This is the opposite of the previous behavior, where =C-c -= on a region
would create one item for the whole region, and where =C-u C-c -= would
create an item for each line. Now =C-c -= on the selected region creates
an item per line, and =C-u C-c -= creates a single item for the whole
region.
**** When transposing words, markup characters are now part of the words
In Emacs, you can transpose words with =M-t=. Transposing =*these*
_words__= will preserve markup.
**** New command [[doc:org-set-property-and-value][org-set-property-and-value]] bound to =C-c C-x P=
This command allows you to quickly add both the property and its value. It
is useful in buffers where there are many properties and where =C-c C-x p=
can slow down the flow of editing too much.
**** New commands [[doc:org-next-block][org-next-block]] and [[doc:org-previous-block][org-previous-block]]
These commands allow you to go to the previous block (=C-c M-b= or the
speedy key =B=) or to the next block (=C-c M-f= or the speedy key =F=.)
**** New commands [[doc:org-drag-line-forward][org-drag-line-forward]] and [[doc:org-drag-line-backward][org-drag-line-backward]]
These commands emulate the old behavior of =M-<down>= and =M-<up>= but are
now bound to =S-M-<down>= and =S-M-<up>= respectively, since =M-<down>= and
=M-<up>= now drag the whole element at point (a paragraph, a table, etc.)
forward and backward.
**** When a list item has a checkbox, inserting a new item uses a checkbox too
**** When sorting entries/items, only the description of links is considered
Now Org will sort this list
: - [[http://abc.org][B]]
: - [[http://def.org][A]]
like this:
: - [[http://def.org][A]]
: - [[http://abc.org][B]]
by comparing the descriptions, not the links.
Same when sorting headlines instead of list items.
**** New option =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp=
For example, setting this option to "^;;; " in Emacs lisp files and using
=orgstruct-mode= in those files will allow you to cycle through visibility
states as if lines starting with ";;; *..." where headlines.
In general, you want to set =orgstruct-heading-prefix-regexp= as a file
local variable.
**** New behavior of [[doc:org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift][org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift]]
The default is now to ask for a time-shift only when there is a time-stamp.
When called with a universal prefix argument =C-u=, it will not ask for a
time-shift even if there is a time-stamp.
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree][org-agenda-restriction-lock-highlight-subtree]]
This defaults to =t= so that the whole subtree is highlighted when you
restrict the agenda view to it with =C-c C-x <= (or the speed command =<=).
The default setting helps ensuring that you are not adding tasks after the
restricted region. If you find this highlighting too intrusive, set this
option to =nil=.
**** New option [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]]
When switching back from a =DONE= keyword to a =TODO= keyword, Org now
removes the =CLOSED= planning information, if any. It also removes this
information when going back to a non-TODO state (e.g., with =C-c C-t SPC=).
If you want to keep the =CLOSED= planning information when removing the
TODO keyword, set [[doc:org-closed-keep-when-no-todo][org-closed-keep-when-no-todo]] to =t=.
**** New option [[doc:org-image-actual-width][org-image-actual-width]]
This option allows you to change the width of in-buffer displayed images.
The default is to use the actual width of the image, but you can use a
fixed value for all images, or fall back on an attribute like
: #+attr_html: :width 300px
*** Scheduled/deadline
**** Implement "delay" cookies for scheduled items
If you want to delay the display of a scheduled task in the agenda, you can
now use a delay cookie like this: =SCHEDULED: <2004-12-25 Sat -2d>=. The
task is still scheduled on the 25th but will appear in your agenda starting
from two days later (i.e. from March 27th.)
Imagine for example that your co-workers are not done in due time and tell
you "we need two more days". In that case, you may want to delay the
display of the task in your agenda by two days, but you still want the task
to appear as scheduled on March 25th.
In case the task contains a repeater, the delay is considered to affect all
occurrences; if you want the delay to only affect the first scheduled
occurrence of the task, use =--2d= instead. See [[doc:org-scheduled-delay-days][org-scheduled-delay-days]]
and [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-delay-if-deadline]] for details on how to
control this globally or per agenda.
**** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-s= will insert a delay cookie for scheduled tasks
See the previous section for why delay cookies may be useful.
**** Use =C-u C-u C-c C-d= will insert a warning delay for deadline tasks
=C-u C-u C-c C-d= now inserts a warning delay to deadlines.
*** Calendar, diary and appts
**** New variable [[doc:org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map][org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map]]
By default, this new local map uses "." to go to today's date, like in the
normal =M-x calendar RET=. If you want to deactivate this and to reassign
the "@" key to =calendar-goto-today=, use this:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
;; Unbind "." in Org's calendar:
(define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map (kbd ".") nil)
;; Bind "@" to `calendar-goto-today':
(define-key org-read-date-minibuffer-local-map
(kbd "@")
(lambda () (interactive) (org-eval-in-calendar '(calendar-goto-today))))
#+END_SRC
**** In Org's calendar, =!= displays diary entries of the date at point
This is useful when you want to check if you don't already have an
appointment when setting new ones with =C-c .= or =C-c s=. =!= will
call =diary-view-entries= and display the diary in a separate buffer.
**** [[doc:org-diary][org-diary]]: only keep the descriptions of links
[[doc:org-diary][org-diary]] returns diary information from Org files, but it returns it
in a diary buffer, not in an Org mode buffer. When links are displayed,
only show their description, not the full links.
*** Agenda
**** New agenda type =agenda*= and entry types =:scheduled* :deadline*=
When defining agenda custom commands, you can now use =agenda*=: this will
list entries that have both a date and a time. This is useful when you
want to build a list of appointments.
You can also set [[doc:org-agenda-entry-types][org-agenda-entry-types]] either globally or locally in
each agenda custom command and use =:timestamp*= and/or =:deadline*= there.
Another place where this is useful is your =.diary= file:
: %%(org-diary :scheduled*) ~/org/rdv.org
This will list only entries from =~/org/rdv.org= that are scheduled with a
time value (i.e. appointments).
**** New agenda sorting strategies
[[doc:org-agenda-sorting-strategy][org-agenda-sorting-strategy]] allows these new sorting strategies:
| Strategy | Explanations |
|----------------+------------------------------------------|
| timestamp-up | Sort by any timestamp, early first |
| timestamp-down | Sort by any timestamp, late first |
| scheduled-up | Sort by scheduled timestamp, early first |
| scheduled-down | Sort by scheduled timestamp, late first |
| deadline-up | Sort by deadline timestamp, early first |
| deadline-down | Sort by deadline timestamp, late first |
| ts-up | Sort by active timestamp, early first |
| ts-down | Sort by active timestamp, late first |
| tsia-up | Sort by inactive timestamp, early first |
| tsia-down | Sort by inactive timestamp, late first |
**** New options to limit the number of agenda entries
You can now limit the number of entries in an agenda view. This is
different from filters: filters only /hide/ the entries in the agenda,
while limits are set while generating the list of agenda entries.
These new options are available:
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-entries][org-agenda-max-entries]] :: limit by number of entries.
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] :: limit by number of TODOs.
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-tags][org-agenda-max-tags]] :: limit by number of tagged entries.
- [[doc:org-agenda-max-effort][org-agenda-max-effort]] :: limit by effort (minutes).
For example, if you locally set [[doc:org-agenda-max-todos][org-agenda-max-todos]] to 3 in an agenda
view, the agenda will be limited to the first three todos. Other entries
without a TODO keyword or beyond the third TODO headline will be ignored.
When setting a limit (e.g. about an effort's sum), the default behavior is
to exclude entries that cannot be checked against (e.g. entries that have
no effort property.) To include other entries too, you can set the limit
to a negative number. For example =(setq org-agenda-max-tags -3)= will not
show the fourth tagged headline (and beyond), but it will also show
non-tagged headlines.
**** =~= in agenda view sets temporary limits
You can hit =~= in the agenda to temporarily set limits: this will
regenerate the agenda as if the limits were set. This is useful for
example when you want to only see a list of =N= tasks, or a list of tasks
that take only =N= minutes.
**** "=" in agenda view filters by regular expressions
You can now filter agenda entries by regular expressions using ~=~. =C-u
== will filter entries out. Regexp filters are cumulative. You can set
[[doc:org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset][org-agenda-regexp-filter-preset]] to suit your needs in each agenda view.
**** =|= in agenda view resets all filters
Since it's common to combine tag filters, category filters, and now regexp
filters, there is a new command =|= to reset all filters at once.
**** Allow writing an agenda to an =.org= file
You can now write an agenda view to an =.org= file. It copies the
headlines and their content (but not subheadings) into the new file.
This is useful when you want to quickly share an agenda containing the full
list of notes.
**** New commands to drag an agenda line forward (=M-<down>=) or backard (=M-<up>=)
It sometimes handy to move agenda lines around, just to quickly reorganize
your tasks, or maybe before saving the agenda to a file. Now you can use
=M-<down>= and =M-<up>= to move the line forward or backward.
This does not persist after a refresh of the agenda, and this does not
change the =.org= files who contribute to the agenda.
**** Use =%b= for displaying "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view
[[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] now allows to use a =%b= formatter to tell Org
to display "breadcrumbs" in the agenda view.
This is useful when you want to display the task hierarchy in your agenda.
**** Use =%l= for displaying the headline's level in the agenda view
[[doc:org-agenda-prefix-format][org-agenda-prefix-format]] allows to use a =%l= formatter to tell Org to
display entries with additional spaces corresponding to their level in the
outline tree.
**** [[doc:org-agenda-write][org-agenda-write]] will ask before overwriting an existing file
=M-x org-agenda-write RET= (or =C-c C-w= from an agenda buffer) used to
overwrite preexisting file with the same name without confirmation. It now
asks for a confirmation.
**** New commands =M-m= and =M-*= to toggle (all) mark(s) for bulk action
- [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle][org-agenda-bulk-toggle]] :: this command is bound to =M-m= and toggles
the mark of the entry at point.
- [[doc:org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all][org-agenda-bulk-toggle-all]] :: this command is bound to =M-*= and
toggles all the marks in the current agenda.
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level][org-agenda-search-view-max-outline-level]]
This option sets the maximum outline level to display in search view.
E.g. when this is set to 1, the search view will only show headlines of
level 1.
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds][org-agenda-todo-ignore-time-comparison-use-seconds]]
This allows to compare times using seconds instead of days when honoring
options like =org-agenda-todo-ignore-*= in the agenda display.
**** New option [[doc:org-agenda-entry-text-leaders][org-agenda-entry-text-leaders]]
This allows you to get rid of the ">" character that gets added in front of
entries excerpts when hitting =E= in the agenda view.
**** New formatting string for past deadlines in [[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]
The default formatting for past deadlines is ="%2d d. ago: "=, which makes
it explicit that the deadline is in the past. You can configure this via
[[doc:org-agenda-deadline-leaders][org-agenda-deadline-leaders]]. Note that the width of the formatting
string is important to keep the agenda alignment clean.
**** New allowed value =repeated-after-deadline= for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]]
When [[doc:org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown][org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown]] is set to
=repeated-after-deadline=, the agenda will skip scheduled items if they are
repeated beyond the current dealine.
**** New option for [[doc:org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled][org-agenda-skip-deadline-prewarning-if-scheduled]]
This variable may be set to nil, t, the symbol `pre-scheduled', or a number
which will then give the number of days before the actual deadline when the
prewarnings should resume. The symbol `pre-scheduled' eliminates the
deadline prewarning only prior to the scheduled date.
Read the full docstring for details.
**** [[doc:org-class][org-class]] now supports holiday strings in the skip-weeks parameter
For example, this task will now be skipped only on new year's day:
: * Task
: <%%(org-class 2012 1 1 2013 12 12 2 "New Year's Day")>
*** Capture
**** Allow =C-1= as a prefix for [[doc:org-agenda-capture][org-agenda-capture]] and [[doc:org-capture][org-capture]]
With a =C-1= prefix, the capture mechanism will use the =HH:MM= value at
point (if any) or the current =HH:MM= time as the default time for the
capture template.
**** Expand keywords within %(sexp) placeholder in capture templates
If you use a =%:keyword= construct within a =%(sexp)= construct, Org will
expand the keywords before expanding the =%(sexp)=.
**** Allow to contextualize capture (and agenda) commands by checking the name of the buffer
[[doc:org-capture-templates-contexts][org-capture-templates-contexts]] and [[doc:org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts][org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts]]
allow you to define what capture templates and what agenda commands should
be available in various contexts. It is now possible for the context to
check against the name of the buffer.
*** Tag groups
Using =#+TAGS: { Tag1 : Tag2 Tag3 }= will define =Tag1= as a /group tag/
(note the colon after =Tag1=). If you search for =Tag1=, it will return
headlines containing either =Tag1=, =Tag2= or =Tag3= (or any combinaison
of those tags.)
You can use group tags for sparse tree in an Org buffer, for creating
agenda views, and for filtering.
See http://orgmode.org/org.html#Tag-groups for details.
*** Links
**** =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= will ignore non-core link functions
Org knows how to store links from Org buffers, from info files and from
other Emacs buffers. Org can be taught how to store links from any buffer
through new link protocols (see [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Adding-hyperlink-types]["Adding hyperlink types"]] in the manual.)
Sometimes you want Org to ignore added link protocols and store the link
as if the protocol was not known.
You can now do this with =C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET=.
**** =C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link RET= on an active region will store links for each lines
Imagine for example that you want to store a link for every message in a
Gnus summary buffer. In that case =C-x h C-u C-u C-u M-x org-store-link
RET= will store a link for every line (i.e. message) if the region is
active.
**** =C-c C-M-l= will add a default description for links which don't have one
=C-c C-M-l= inserts all stored links. If a link does not have a
description, this command now adds a default one, so that we are not mixing
with-description and without-description links when inserting them.
**** No curly braces to bracket links within internal links
When storing a link to a headline like
: * See [[http://orgmode.org][Org website]]
[[doc:org-store-link][org-store-link]] used to convert the square brackets into curly brackets.
It does not anymore, taking the link description or the link path, when
there is no description.
*** Table
**** Switching between #+TBLFM lines
If you have several =#+TBLFM= lines below a table, =C-c C-c= on a line will
apply the formulas from this line, and =C-c C-c= on another line will apply
those other formulas.
**** You now use "nan" for empty fields in Calc formulas
If empty fields are of interest, it is recommended to reread the section
[[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc][3.5.2 Formula syntax for Calc]] of the manual because the description for the
mode strings has been clarified and new examples have been added towards
the end.
**** Handle localized time-stamps in formulas evaluation
If your =LOCALE= is set so that Org time-stamps use another language than
english, and if you make time computations in Org's table, it now works by
internally converting the time-stamps with a temporary =LOCALE=C= before
doing computation.
**** New lookup functions
There are now three lookup functions:
- [[doc:org-loopup-first][org-loopup-first]]
- [[doc:org-loopup-last][org-loopup-last]]
- [[doc:org-loopup-all][org-loopup-all]]
See [[http://orgmode.org/org.html#Lookup-functions][the manual]] for details.
*** Startup keywords
These new startup keywords are now available:
| Startup keyword | Option |
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
| =#+STARTUP: logdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer t)= |
| =#+STARTUP: nologdrawer= | =(setq org-log-into-drawer nil)= |
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
| =#+STARTUP: logstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed t)= |
| =#+STARTUP: nologstatesreversed= | =(setq org-log-states-order-reversed nil)= |
|----------------------------------+---------------------------------------------|
| =#+STARTUP: latexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview t)= |
| =#+STARTUP: nolatexpreview= | =(setq org-startup-with-latex-preview nil)= |
*** Clocking
**** New option [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]]
E.g. if [[doc:org-clock-rounding-minutes][org-clock-rounding-minutes]] is set to 5, time is 14:47 and you
clock in: then the clock starts at 14:45. If you clock out within the next
5 minutes, the clock line will be removed; if you clock out 8 minutes after
your clocked in, the clock out time will be 14:50.
**** New option [[doc:org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations][org-time-clocksum-use-effort-durations]]
When non-nil, =C-c C-x C-d= uses effort durations. E.g., by default, one
day is considered to be a 8 hours effort, so a task that has been clocked
for 16 hours will be displayed as during 2 days in the clock display or in
the clocktable.
See [[doc:org-effort-durations][org-effort-durations]] on how to set effort durations and
[[doc:org-time-clocksum-format][org-time-clocksum-format]] for more on time clock formats.
**** New option [[doc:org-clock-x11idle-program-name][org-clock-x11idle-program-name]]
This allows to set the name of the program which prints X11 idle time in
milliseconds. The default is to use =x11idle=.
**** New option [[doc:org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time][org-use-last-clock-out-time-as-effective-time]]
When non-nil, use the last clock out time for [[doc:org-todo][org-todo]]. Note that this
option has precedence over the combined use of [[doc:org-use-effective-time][org-use-effective-time]] and
[[doc:org-extend-today-until][org-extend-today-until]].
**** =S-<left/right>= on a clocksum column will update the sum by updating the last clock
**** =C-u 3 C-S-<up/down>= will update clock timestamps synchronously by 3 units
**** New parameter =:wstart= for clocktables to define the week start day
**** New parameter =:mstart= to state the starting day of the month
**** Allow relative times in clocktable tstart and tend options
**** The clocktable summary is now a caption
**** =:tstart= and =:tend= and friends allow relative times like "<-1w>" or "<now>"
*** Babel
**** You can now use =C-c C-k= for [[doc:org-edit-src-abort][org-edit-src-abort]]
This allows you to quickly cancel editing a source block.
**** =C-u C-u M-x org-babel-tangle RET= tangles by the target file of the block at point
This is handy if you want to tangle all source code blocks that have the
same target than the block at point.
**** New options for auto-saving the base buffer or the source block editing buffer
When [[doc:org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save][org-edit-src-turn-on-auto-save]] is set to =t=, editing a source block
in a new window will turn on =auto-save-mode= and save the code in a new
file under the same directory than the base Org file.
When [[doc:org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay][org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay]] is set to a number of minutes =N=,
the base Org buffer will be saved after this number of minutes of idle
time.
**** New =:post= header argument post-processes results
This header argument may be used to pass the results of the current
code block through another code block for post-processing. See the
manual for a usage example.
**** Commented out heading are ignored when collecting blocks for tangling
If you comment out a heading (with =C-c ;= anywhere on the heading or in
the subtree), code blocks from within this heading are now ignored when
collecting blocks for tangling.
**** New option [[doc:org-babel-hash-show-time][org-babel-hash-show-time]] to show a time-stamp in the result hash
**** Do not ask for confirmation if cached value is current
Do not run [[doc:org-babel-confirm-evaluate][org-babel-confirm-evaluate]] if source block has a cache and the
cache value is current as there is no evaluation involved in this case.
**** =ob-sql.el= and =ob-python.el= have been improved.
**** New Babel files only need to =(require 'ob)=
When writing a new Babel file, you now only need to use =(require 'ob)=
instead of requiring each Babel library one by one.

** Outside Org
*** Spanish translation of the Org guide by David Arroyo Menéndez
David (and others) translated the Org compact guide in spanish:
You can read the [[http://orgmode.org/worg/orgguide/orgguide.es.pdf][PDF guide]].
*** ~poporg.el~ and ~outorg.el~
Two new libraries (~poporg.el~ by François Pinard and ~outorg.el~ by
Thorsten Jolitz) now enable editing of comment-sections from source-code
buffers in temporary Org-mode buffers, making the full editing power of
Org-mode available. ~outorg.el~ comes together with ~outshine.el~ and
~navi-mode.el~, two more libraries by Thorsten Jolitz with the goal to give
source-code buffers the /look & feel/ of Org-mode buffers while greatly
improving navigation and structure editing. A detailed description can be
found here: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html
Here are two screencasts demonstrating Thorsten's tools:
- [[http://youtu.be/nqE6YxlY0rw]["Modern conventions for Emacs Lisp files"]]
- [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v%3DII-xYw5VGFM][Exploring Bernt Hansen's Org-mode tutorial with 'navi-mode']]
