Details
=======

Keybindings in Remember buffers can be configured
-------------------------------------------------

    The remember buffers created with Org's extensions are in
    Org-mode, which is nice to prepare snippets that will
    actually be stored in Org-mode files.  However, this makes it
    hard to configure key bindings without modifying the Org-mode
    keymap.  There is now a minor mode active in these buffers,
    `org-remember-mode', and its keymap org-remember-mode-map can
    be used for key bindings.  By default, this map only contains
    the bindings for `C-c C-c' to store the note, and `C-c C-k'
    to abort it.  Use `org-remember-mode-hook' to define your own
    bindings like

  (add-hook
   'org-remember-mode-hook
   (lambda ()
     (define-key org-remember-mode-map
       "\C-x\C-s" 'org-remember-finalize)))


    If you wish, you can also use this to free the `C-c C-c'
    binding (by binding this key to nil in the minor mode map),
    so that you can use `C-c C-c' again to set tags.

    This modification is based on a request by Tim O'Callaghan.

Support for ido completion
--------------------------

    You can now get the completion interface from /ido.el/ for
    many of Org's internal completion commands by turning on the
    variable `org-completion-use-ido'. `ido=mode' must also be
    active before you can use this.

    This change is based upon a request by Samuel Wales.

New face for date lines in agenda column view
---------------------------------------------

    When column view is active in the agenda, and when you have
    summarizing properties, the date lines become normal column
    lines and the separation between different days becomes
    harder to see.  If this bothers you, you can now customize
    the face `org-agenda-column-dateline'.

    This is based on a request by George Pearson.

Invisible targets become now anchors in headlines.
--------------------------------------------------

    These anchors can be used to jump to a directly with an HTML
    link, just like the `sec-xxx' ids.  For example, the
    following will make a http link
    `//domain/path-to-my-file.html#dummy' work:

      # <<dummy>>
      *** a headline

    This is based on a request by Matt Lundin.

New contributed file /org-exp-blocks.el/
----------------------------------------

    This new file implements special export behavior of
    user-defined blocks.  The currently supported blocks are

    - comment :: Comment blocks with author-specific markup
    - ditaa ::  conversion of ASCII art into pretty png files
         using Stathis  Sideris' /ditaa.jar/ program
    - dot :: creation of graphs in the /dot/ language
    - R :: Sweave type exporting using the R program

    For more details and examples, see the file commentary in
    /org-exp-blocks.el/.

    Kudos to Eric Schulte for this new functionality, after
    /org-plot.el/ already his second major contribution.  Thanks
    to Stathis for this excellent program, and for allowing us to
    bundle it with Org-mode.

New contributed file /org-eval-light.el/
----------------------------------------

    This module gives contrib over execution Emacs Lisp code
    blocks included in a file.

    Thanks to Eric Schulte also for this file.

Link translation
----------------

    You can now configure Org to understand many links created
    with the Emacs Planner package, so you can cut text from
    planner pages and paste them into Org-mode files without
    having to re-write the links.  Among other things, this means
    that the command `org-open-at-point-global' which follows
    links not only in Org-mode, but in arbitrary files like
    source code files etc, will work also with links created by
    planner. The following customization es needed to make all of
    this work

  (setq org-link-translation-function
        'org-translate-link-from-planner)


   I guess an inverse translator could be written and integrated
   into Planner.

BBDB links may use regular expressions.
---------------------------------------

    This did work all along, but only now I have documented it.

`yank-pop' works again after yanking an outline tree
----------------------------------------------------

    Samuel Wales had noticed that org-yank did mess up this
    functionality.  Now you can use `yank-pop' again, the only
    restriction is that the so-yanked text will not be
    pro/demoted or folded.

Link abbreviations can use %h to insert a url-encoded target value
------------------------------------------------------------------

    Thanks to Steve Purcell for a patch to this effect.

Improved XHTML compliance
-------------------------

    Thanks to Sebastian Rose for pushing this.

Many bug fixes again.
