Previously, C-x C-s in an org-edit-special buffer (invoked via C-') would save the underlying org buffer (provided (setq org-src-window-setup (quote current-window)) was set; it was buggy with other settings, see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/50979 for discussion). Currently, C-x C-s prompts to save the temporary source edit buffer in a new file, which is almost certainly not what the user intends. I hope someone can look into this, C-x C-s shouldn't be broken in any context. This broke some time between commit fc93b6f34071703d5a154a51540f3f4e3f15b8a2 (Jan. 18) and this week, _possibly_ as a result of the change ensuring that buffer-file-name is nil in temporary org-src buffers. Buffer-file-name not being nil in a temp buffer is incorrect behavior, but in this context having C-x C-s not working is a much worse behavior, so perhaps that change ought to be reverted if it's the culprit. --Leo
Before Org mode, I was using a mix of Tomboy and Workflowy. Tomboy is a
note taking application, which I used under GNOME, and Workflowy.com is
an outlining Web service. I used and liked both intensely, each is full
of various virtues.
There is one thing in Workflowy that I miss a bit in Org mode, and this
is the capability of collaborative edition. I once much used it with
some of my co-workers. I presume such things have been discussed to
death already on this mailing list? Did some consensus emerged?
My question is a rhetorical one, as I'm pretty sure my co-workers are
never going to switch to Emacs, and anyway, collaboration is managed
differently for the time being. Yet, I'm curious, so my question. And
who knows, ideas sometimes germinate while being exchanged!
