That appends the custom values to the existing variable. (setq org-export-latex-classes (cons '("aisarticle" "% BEGIN latex % END latex " ("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}") ("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}") ("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}") ("\\paragraph{%s}" . "\\paragraph*{%s}") ("\\subparagraph{%s}" . "\\subparagraph*{%s}")) org-export-latex-classes)) Glad to see my experiments are coming in handy! ------------------------------------------------------------------ Russell Adams [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key ID: 0x1160DCB3 http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/ Fingerprint: 1723 D8CA 4280 1EC9 557F 66E8 1154 E018 1160 DCB3 _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
