TIL about org-novelist and… damn.

I am 100% going to give that a try when I finally write a standalone novel. The current books are too interwingled & org-novelist really seems to be designed around a concept of "everything for this book is in this one folder" but in my current situation I'm sharing characters between books with overlapping timelines and locations and all that.

I have released version 2.8 of org-social.el 🥳

I have focused on improving the user experience with real-time notifications, better post readability, and performance enhancements.

- **Real-time Desktop Notifications**: Get instant notifications for mentions, reactions, replies, and boosts via SSE (Server-Sent Events). Optional feature, disabled by default via `org-social-realtime-notifications`
- **Post Preview Length Control**: Long posts now show a "Read more" button (default 400 characters). Configurable with `org-social-post-preview-length` or set to `nil` to disable truncation
- **Improved User Mentions**: `org-social-mention-user` now uses async cache system that loads all users from relay without blocking Emacs. Cache updates automatically and silently after timeline is displayed

## Other improvements

- Bug Fix: Poll voting now works correctly with vfile URLs by using local cache file
- UI Enhancement: Thread view displays full posts without truncation for better readability
- Performance: Timeline navigation optimized to avoid unnecessary feed reloads when switching between buffers

#orgsocial #emacs #orgmode #elisp

What's this? I just want to play around with org-mode.

(base) royal@durin:~$ emacs
bash: emacs: command not found...
Packages providing this file are:
'emacs-gtk+x11'

#fedora #fedora43 #emacs #orgmode

Yesterday I updated emacs packages and someone changed org-clock-in from C-c C-x C-i to C-c C-x TAB ​:blobfoxnotlikethis:​

But manual says old combination https://orgmode.org/manual/Clocking-commands.html

How I change it back to C-c C-x C-i, because I don't understand?

#Emacs #org-mode

Orgro lets you slide sections to reveal a TODO toggle. However one thing has always bugged me: With a very tall section it's not clear where to put the icon and label.

So here's what I came up with: Floating!

I'm not sure this is a great solution, but I think it's better than before, where the icon and label would simply be off screen if you slid the section at an unfortunate scroll offset.

#Orgro #OrgMode #Emacs

In Jack Baty's latest (excellent) post, he says:

"Org-mode is [...] essentially useless outside of Emacs"

What is this **outside of Emacs** he mentions? Is this some metaphysical concept I am not aware of?

#Emacs #OrgMode

I wrote up some notes on how i'm using Just and fswatch on my Mac to autocommit my #orgmode files to my repo

https://gregnewman.io/blog/autocommit-org-files-using-just/

#emacs

@OnlineVagabund Ich verwende simples #Emacs #Orgmode und #Mercurial. C-x vv committed, C-x v+ aktualisiert vom anderen (mit git sind die Befehle die gleichen).

⇒ https://orgmode.org/

Empfohlen wurde mir auch syncthing, das habe ich aber noch nicht getestet.

Ich verwende org-mode für alles, weil nur das für mich langfristig funktioniert hat: https://www.draketo.de/software/org-mode-tipps

Bei allem anderen habe ich den Fokus verloren. Obsidian rühre ich nicht an, weil ich mit MacJournal schonmal reingefallen bin.

Rejected feature request for #Emacs #OrgMode: markup syntax for small caps.

Yes, I am trying to imitate #Death from #Discworld, why do you ask?

I'm using a similar method "my-convert-region-from-markdown-to-orgdown" from https://github.com/novoid/dot-emacs/blob/master/config.org

Does your method suffer from the same issue which I still have? Converted heading levels are always starting at level 1 and not the heading level of the current sub-tree I'm yanking to.

Therefore, I yank to *scratch* and need to search/replace heading markers to match the levels I currently need ...

I guess here is the #emacsconf youtube of my talk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy5i6Qb6fYE #commonLisp #softwareIndividuals

I segue from #emacs #orgmode to emacs #eev (hey, this talk in several hours is on eev by @eduardoochs https://emacsconf.org/2025/talks/modern/ )

Contrasting how complex and intractable org's tangle and weave are from a very literal eev style executable log. Then I present and run my #lisp software that when turned on pops an emacs lisp list every 30 seconds and does a sequence of actions therein.

Hey everyone! In half an hour, my #emacsconf talk on #commonLisp agents in #emacs will go live in the #conference. It's a 25 minute prerecorded talk / video. #orgmode #eev

Because I live in the world's longest-running #VR #lambdaMOO
the live #Q&A afterwards will be relayed to and from there and
#emacsconf-dev on liberachat irc, and

I wrote a more straightforward description of my emacsconf talk about 13 hours from now:

The #orgmode file used in presenting my talk creeping up upon autonomous #commonLisp #emacs #software #Agents : https://screwlisp.small-web.org/software-individuals/script-for-emacsconf-this-weekend-video-org/

Looking forward to your wild and freeranging and/or specific questions in the Q&A

I use a giant #org-mode repisitory to keep myself organized. I synchronize this repisitory between multiple devices using #git because occasionally I'll find myself out without an internet connection and it's useful for merging when they fall out of sync.

To that end, I frequently find myself issuing the command git commit -am stuff, which makes me feel kind of dirty, but it's just the easiest thing to do.

Luckily no one but me will ever see this repisitory.

#VersionControlCrimes

I just published a new patch release of #stubble, which updates the #orgmode template to use the more idiomatic 'filetags' property 🪒

#orgmode orgfile #emacs segueing into #eev for my #emacsconf talk this weekend. https://screwlisp.small-web.org/software-individuals/script-for-emacsconf-this-weekend-video-org/

about my #leonardoCalculus #softwareIndividuals #agent #programming . Actually, in the talk I recorded, I forgot to write (ok-record) somewhere. However the interactive investigation while the agent continues doing its own thing kind of highlighted a point about it. This document is a later revision than the one in the actual talk.

I think my talk is titled " #commonlisp " on the schedule.

If you juggle working between Markdown and Org a lot, this might be of interest to you.
