Hi all,
Currently I am a student and I heavily use orgmode to manage my
agenda. I must say that orgmode is very cool! I am using emacs 23
from CVS and orgmode 6.14 now.
Right now I am looking for a way such that I can schedule a task
repeatedly within a time period. For example, I have a class on every
Wed in Dec 2008. I hope that I can assign the task in the following way
* Class A
<2008-12-01 Wed 15:00-17:00 +1w>--<2008-12-31 Wed>
However, currently orgmode seems not to support this kind of syntax.
I know that I can use the diary sexp. For example, I can have
* Class A
<%%(and (diary-block 01 12 2008 31 12 2008) (= 3 (calendar-day-of-week
date)))>
It worked. Unfortunately, there are two problems of this approach.
1) It seems that I cannot specify the "hours" using this approach.
For example, I try
<%%(and (diary-block 01 12 2008 31 12 2008) (= 3 (calendar-day-of-week
date))) 15:00-17:00>
, and it is not working.
2) More importantly, it seems that entry with sexp cannot be exported
when I tried to export my org files into a ics file. This is very
bad for me, because I constantly upload my org agenda into google
calendar. Therefore, this makes it unusable to me.
I believe that somebody has already mention something like
this. However, I tried to google it and still could not find the
answer.
Any comment on this?
Best,
Ming-Wei
