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.
• doesn’t seem to work at all in emacs -nw
  • fails because face-font doesn’t return as expected in no window mode
• 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.
• 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?
