Hi, I'm a regular org-mode user. I have made a couple of small tweaks to org-mode that may be useful to someone else.
In this mail I attach a patch for the first one. It adds a configuration variable to chose where latex preview stores the little png images of formulas. I prefer having all of them together rather than scattered all over the place. Abdó Roig.

(org-preview-latex-fragment): store latex preview images in org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory. Added a variable org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory with a path where the preview images will be stored. The default does not change (small little ltxpng scattered all over the place) but now the user can chose an absolute path and put all the images on a single place. --- lisp/org.el | 12 ++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/lisp/org.el b/lisp/org.el index 8e0f987..f49a9ac 100644 --- a/lisp/org.el +++ b/lisp/org.el @@ -3413,6 +3413,14 @@ imagemagick Convert the LaTeX fragments to pdf files and use imagemagick (const :tag "dvipng" dvipng) (const :tag "imagemagick" imagemagick))) +(defcustom org-latex-preview-ltxpng-directory "ltxpng/" + "Path to store latex preview images.
