Re: [Orgmode] embedded/inherited tags

This is an interesting hack, and it does solve what Eraldo was asking for.

However, I also think that using the outline hierarchy to file things
properly, and in this way making use of the existing tag inheritance,
is a very good alternative, as described by Peter Jones and by Manish
earlier in this thread.

Peter Jones - thanks for the advise. Unfortunately it does not fit to
me, since I have my todo items in different files.

Eraldo - I was also thinking about this, but I thought that maybe
solution already exists...

Anyhow, for my it is fixed - I wrote a small package org-assoc-tags,
that allows to have key-tag and associated tags. For example:

(setq org-assoc-tags '(
      ("emacs" "tech")
      ("orgmode" "emacs" "tech")
      ))

If you assign :emacs: tag, then :tech: will be assigned automatically.
If you assign :orgmode: tag, then both :emacs: and :tech: will be assigned.
The package can be found at: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/org-assoc-tags.el

Hopefully it might be helpful for someone,

Hi Kostya!

I am still pretty new to emacs and org-mode, but from what I have read until now...
Could you use the tag hook to automatically assign the :tech: tag along with :firefox: and|or :emacs: etc...
This is still not exactly what you wished afaics, but it may make things a little more convenient.

Hi,

Manish - thank you for the reply.

Here is what I want in details:
For example, I have following tags :tech: :firefox: :emacs: :orgmode:
In agenda I usually ask only for TODO with :tech: tags, in order to see actions, related to technical stuff.

clearly, :firefox: and :emacs: are related to :tech: tag. It would be convenient to introduce tag hierarchy:
every todo-item with :emacs: (or :firefox: ) tag only should show up in agenda, when I query for :tech: tag.
I understand, that every time I assign :emacs: tag I can assign :tech: tag as well, and this will do the work, but it is not convenient.


Is such mechanism exists?

My todo's are scatterd over the files, thus I can not use usual tag hierarchy, that is controlled by, for example, "org-use-tag-inheritance".

thanks,
Kostya

Could you please a little elaborate more on this?  Also please take a
look at variable "org-use-tag-inheritance".
