Hi Bernt,

I have reverted the change. In fact, I had expected that it would slow down things, but I did not realize it would be this bad, which is not acceptable.

So until we find a better solution, I am going back.  Sorry, Tseng.

Hi Carsten,

I just upgraded to 6.07 this morning from 6.06b and org-cycle takes a
long time to finish when working on my org files.  My org file is
currently 26804 lines, 1134144 characters.

Release 6.06b does not have this issue.

I created a new task at the top under '* Tasks' as follows at the top of
my file

               ,----
               | * Tasks
               | ** TODO Do something
               |    [2008-09-19 Fri]
               |    check something
point here  --> |
               | * Projects
               `----
                 <26798 more lines follow...>

and just hit tab when not on a heading line (ie on the blank line in the body of the task 'Do something' right before '* Projects' and Emacs goes
away for a few seconds)

The following commit causes this behaviour:

I'm moving back to the commit before this
(d6cabfc6b283b3e65ca87de45a30854b8facfe2e) for now since the delay is
too disruptive for me.

Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help isolate this
problem.

Thanks for a great tool!!

Hi everyone,

after a break of almost 8 weeks, here is finally a new release
of Org that addresses almost all issues raised and features
requested during that time.  And it fixes many bugs.

Below is a long list of changes, please make sure to read it
carefully so that you will not miss the one feature that you
might want to use.

As usually, the release can simply be pulled from the git repo,
or you can download a distribution zip or tag file at
http://orgmode.org.

For those of you who repackage and redistribute Org further, I
recommend to wait a few days - there are usually a few minor things
I overlooked, which will be fixed in quick followup releases.

Incompatible changes
====================

Prefix interpretation when storing remember notes has changed
-------------------------------------------------------------

   The prefix argument to the `C-c C-c' command that finishes a
   remember process is now interpreted differently:

    C-c C-c       Store the note to predefined file and headline
    C-u C-c C-c   Like C-c C-c, but immediately visit the note
                  in its new location.
    C-1 C-c C-c   Select the storage location interactively
    C-0 C-c C-c   Re-use the last used location

   This was requested by John Wiegley.

Capturing column view is now on `C-c C-x i'
-------------------------------------------

   The reason for this change was that `C-c C-x r' is also used
   as a tty key replacement.

Categories in iCalendar export now include local tags
-----------------------------------------------------

   The locally defined tags are now listed as categories when
   exporting to iCalendar format.  Org's traditional file/tree
   category is now the last category in this list.  Configure
   the variable `org-icalendar-categories' to modify or revert
   this behavior.

   This was a request by Charles Philip Chan.

Details
=======

Secondary filtering of agenda views.
------------------------------------

   You can now easily and interactively filter an existing
   agenda view with respect to a tag.  This command is executed
   with the `/' key in the agenda.  You will be prompted for a
   tag selection key, and all entries that do not contain or
   inherit the corresponding tag will be hidden.  With a prefix
   argument, the opposite filter is applied: entries that
   do have the tag will be hidden.

   This operation only /hides/ lines in the agenda buffer, it
   does not remove them.  Changing the secondary filtering does
   not require a new search and is very fast.

   If you press TAB at the tag selection prompt, you will be
   switched to a completion interface to select a tag.  This is
   useful when you want to select a tag that does not have a
   direct access character.

   A double `/ /' will restore the original agenda view by
   unhiding any hidden lines.

   This functionality was John Wiegley's idea.  It is a simpler
   implementation of some of the query-editing features proposed
   and implemented some time ago by Christopher League (see the
   file contrib/lisp/org-interactive-query.el).

Editing fixed-width regions with picture or artist mode
-------------------------------------------------------

   The command C-c ' (that is `C-c' followed by a
   single quote) can now also be used to switch to a special
   editing mode for fixed-width sections.  The default mode is
   `artist-mode' which allows you to create ASCII drawings.

   It works like this: Enter the editing mode with
   C-c '.  An indirect buffer will be created and
   narrowed to the fixed-width region.  Edit the drawing, and
   press C-c ' again to exit.

   Lines in a fixed-width region should be preceded by a colon
   followed by at least one space.  These will be removed during
   editing, and then added back when you exit the editing mode.

   Using the command in an empty line will create a new
   fixed-width region.

   This new feature arose from a discussion involving Scott
   Otterson, Sebastian Rose and Will Henney.

/org-plot.el/ is now part of Org.
---------------------------------

   You can run it by simple calling org-plot/gnuplot.
   Documentation is not yet included with Org, please refer to
   [http://github.com/eschulte/org-plot/tree/master] until we have
   moved the docs into Org or Worg.

   Thanks to Eric Schulte for this great contribution.

Tags can be used to select the export part of a document
--------------------------------------------------------

   You may now use tags to select parts of a document for
   inclusion into the export, and to exclude other parts.  This
   behavior is governed by two new variables:
   `org-export-select-tags' and `org-export-exclude-tags'.
   These default to `("export")' and `("noexport")', but can be
   changed, even to include a list of several tags.

   Org first checks if any of the /select/ tags is present in
   the buffer.  If yes, all trees that do not carry one of these
   tags will be excluded.  If a selected tree is a subtree, the
   heading hierarchy above it will also be selected for export,
   but not the text below those headings.  If none of the select
   tags is found anywhere in the buffer, the whole buffer will
   be selected for export.  Finally, all subtrees that are
   marked by any of the /exclude/ tags will be removed from the
   export buffer.

   You may set these tags with in-buffer options
   `EXPORT_SELECT_TAGS' and `EXPORT_EXCLUDE_TAGS'.

   I love this feature.  Thanks to Richard G Rigley for coming
   up with the idea.

Prefix interpretation when storing remember notes
-------------------------------------------------

   The prefix argument to the `C-c C-c' command that finishes a
   remember process is now interpreted differently:

    C-c C-c       Store the note to predefined file and headline
    C-u C-c C-c   Like C-c C-c, but immediately visit the note
                  in its new location.
    C-1 C-c C-c   Select the storage location interactively
    C-0 C-c C-c   Re-use the last used location

   This was requested by John Wiegley.

Yanking inserts folded subtrees
-------------------------------

   If the kill is a subtree or a sequence of subtrees, yanking
   them with `C-y' will leave all the subtrees in a folded
   state.  This basically means, that kill and yank are now
   much more useful in moving stuff around in your outline.  If
   you do not like this, customize the variable
   `org-yank-folded-subtrees'.

   Right now, I am only binding `C-y' to this new function,
   should I modify all bindings of yank?  Do we need to amend
   `yank-pop' as well?

   This feature was requested by John Wiegley.

Column view capture tables can have formulas, plotting info
-----------------------------------------------------------

   If you attach formulas and plotting instructions to a table
   capturing column view, these extra lines will now survive an
   update of the column view capture, and any formulas will be
   re-applied to the captured table.  This works by keeping any
   continuous block of comments before and after the actual
   table.

In column view, date stamps can be changed with S-cursor keys
-------------------------------------------------------------

   If a property value is a time stamp, S-left and S-right can
   now be used to shift this date around while in column view.

   This was a request by Chris Randle.

The note buffer for clocking out now mentions the task
------------------------------------------------------

   This was a request by Peter Frings.

Sorting entries alphabetically ignores TODO keyword and priority
----------------------------------------------------------------

   Numerical and alphanumerical sorting now skips any TODO
   keyword or priority cookie when constructing the comparison
   string.  This was a request by Wanrong Lin.

Agenda views can sort entries by TODO state
-------------------------------------------

   You can now define a sorting strategy for agenda entries that
   does look at the TODO state of the entries.  Sorting by TODO
   entry does first separate the non-done from the done states.
   Within each class, the entries are sorted not alphabetically,
   but in definition order.  So if you have a sequence of TODO
   entries defined, the entries will be sorted according to the
   position of the keyword in this sequence.

   This follows an idea and sample implementation by Christian
   Egli.

New face `org-scheduled' for entries scheduled in the future.
-------------------------------------------------------------

   This was a request by Richard G Rigley.

Remember templates for gnus links can now use the :to escape.
-------------------------------------------------------------

   Thanks to Tommy Lindgren for a patch to this effect.

The file specification in a remember template may now be a function
-------------------------------------------------------------------

   Thanks to Gregory Sullivan for a patch to this effect.

Categories in iCalendar export now include local tags
-----------------------------------------------------

   The locally defined tags are now listed as categories when
   exporting to iCalendar format.  Org's traditional file/tree
   category is now the last category in this list.  Configure
   the variable `org-icalendar-categories' to modify or revert
   this behavior.

   This was a request by Charles Philip Chan.

It is now possible to define filters for column view
----------------------------------------------------

   The filter can modify the value that will be displayed in a
   column, for example it can cut out a part of a time stamp.
   For more information, look at the variable
   `org-columns-modify-value-for-display-function'.

Disabling integer increment during table field copy
---------------------------------------------------

   Prefix arg 0 to S-RET does the trick.

   This was a request by Chris Randle.
