trying out org-timeblock
Issues
Not necessarily with org-timeblock itself - might just be my setup.
-
requires SVG support - termux emacs doesn't seem to have svg support compiled in
- org-timeblock gives message
image-type: Invalid image type 'svg'
- maybe I could try Emacs Android build specifically for this?
- I think it's for actual display in Emacs, not just for export. So a hard dependency.
(image-type-available-p 'svg)
returns nil, so it's not present.
- org-timeblock gives message
-
doesn't seem to work at all in
emacs -nw
- fails because
face-font
doesn't return as expected in no window mode
- fails because
-
doesn't seem to play nicely with evil mode
- I disabled it temporarliy in the buffer by toggling
evil-local-mode
, and the bindings work again. - So could turn it off with a hook e.g. https://github.com/ichernyshovvv/org-timeblock/pull/51/files
- But would be nice if it worked. When it's off, shortcuts like
SPC SPC
don't work, which is a pain. - someone here has a useful config: https://github.com/ichernyshovvv/org-timeblock/issues/21
- Must be some way to have an evil transient mode like e.g. magit does.
- I disabled it temporarliy in the buffer by toggling
- various warnings at installation
- changing the timerange of a task doesn't seem to work
Thoughts
Looks very nice, but some showstoppers for me.
Might try calfw-blocks instead - is that text only?
