I'm starting to use org-mode more and more at the moment, and want
to
integrate my university schedule into my agenda, instead of
maintaining 2 separate calendars.
Here's an real-world example of what I'd like to do, I'm not sure
it's
possible with org-mode though...
I have a CSC243 practical every Tuesday, at 1100-1300. It repeats
weekly, starting on 28/10/2008 and the last one is on 16/12/2008. I
can get it repeating weekly from this date with just a start time,
but
cannot work out how to repeat the time region.
,----[ university.org ]
| * Classes
| ** TODO CSC243 Practical
| SCHEDULED: <2008-10-28 Tue 11:00-13:00 +1w>
|
`----
Also, is there anyway to stop the repeating event when it gets to
that
date? If that's not possible, I don't mind having to go in and
manually remove the event - most changes happen at the end of a term
anyawy.
No, repeating items go on forever (as far as I know)
I normally deal with this with a second deadline item to kill the
task.
Something like this:
,----[ university.org ]
| * Classes
| ** TODO CSC243 Practical
| SCHEDULED: <2008-10-28 Tue 11:00-13:00 +1w>
| *** TODO Task ends
| DEADLINE: <2008-12-16 Tue -7d>
|
`----
and then I just remove the +1w from the CSC243 task and mark it and
the
deadline task as done.
I would also recommend putting these tasks in a separate org file and
just adding it to your agenda with C-c [. Then it's easy to drop it
from the agenda in the future with C-c ].
HTH,
Bernt
