Hi Nick,

Actually, your diagnosis was exactly right, as usual.  The "buggy" example
came from a document meant as a tutorial.

It doesn't fix any issues I'm aware of, so you could consider it
obsolete.  But on the other hand, it still makes org-agenda-open-link a
bit more robust as it makes the cond try the remaining clauses if the
first one doesn't succeed.

 I must be doing something wrong then --- I had the :results silent and
 found the source block in verbatim in my latex export file  Changing
 to :exports none made that go away for me.  Maybe that was a
 coincidence.  I will have to investigate further, I guess.

Great!  Thanks.  Your tutorial has been very helpful to me.  I needed to
figure out how to set up a special-purpose format for my document and in
a moment I had just the solution I needed.

I suppose one could do...

(unless (find "per-file-class" org-export-latex-classes :key 'car
   :test 'equal)
  (add-to-list 'org-export-latex-classes
  '("per-file-class"
 "\\documentclass{scrartcl}
 [NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
 [EXTRA]"
 ("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
 ("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
 ("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}")
 ("\\paragraph{%s}" . "\\paragraph*{%s}")
 ("\\subparagraph{%s}" . "\\subparagraph*{%s}"

since the add-to-list is a globally side-effecting action; it doesn't
need to be repeated on each export, right?  [I thought at first pushnew
could do the job, but now I don't think so.]

Best,
R

[O] [PATCH] Optional \caption argument in LaTeX export

[Thomas S. Dye]

Aloha all,

The attached patch initializes the shortn variable, uses it to add the
optional argument to \caption in two places where this wasn't
implemented, and adds a bit of documentation.

Note that the shortn variable in org-mode is already used to add an
optional argument to \caption in one case.  The patch enables this
behavior for other captions, as well.

Note also, that if the shortn variable isn't initialized nil, the
optional argument to one \caption is recycled to the next \caption
indefinitely until shortn is reset.

Thanks to Nick Dokos for explaining why an earlier patch of mine didn't
show up on patchwork (wrong MIME type, evil mail client).  This one is
sent from gnus with crossed fingers.

All the best,
Tom

[O] Daisy chain file/heading links

[Derek Thomas]

Hi, is there a way to daisy chain the searches in links?  I'm linking
several files that are organized in a heading, subheading, paragraph
format (paragraphs are numbered) and I'd like to specify a link like
this [[file:example.org::*Heading::*Subheading::P. 1][test link]].
The problem is that the subheadings and paragraph numbers are not
unique.  I also don't really want to set CUSTOM_ID properties for
every paragraph.  Thanks.

Hi Derek

If you mean by "daisy chain a search" what I would call "outline
path": no, there is no such possibility for links yet, only for
refile. Once I also wanted to have this for links but now I prefer
:ID: links for my use cases. Read here for more:

[O] Assigning a keyboard shortcut

[John Hendy]

This is surely very simple but I can't find it anywhere...

I'm trying to assign org-resolve-clocks to C-c C-r. I tried to just
modify the way that link and agendar are set:
,---
| (global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
`---

So I've tried:
,---
| (global-set-key "\C-c C-r" 'org-resolve-clocks)
| (global-set-key "\C-c \C-r" 'org-resolve-clocks)
| (global-set-key "\C-c\C-r" 'org-resolve-clocks)
`---

and none have worked.
,---
| (global-set-key "\C-cr" 'org-resolve-clocks)
`---

works fine, but I wanted C-c C-r not C-c r. What am I goofing?


Thanks,
John

[O] org-mode and ebib

Hi all.
There was a discussion about integration of ebib and org mode. And it

But I cannot manage to insert such link from ebib into org-mode.
Have anybody made a function for it?
Thanks.

[O] mobileorg android refuses to syn with mydisk.se

[Robert Goldman]

Using mydisk.se, when I try to sync I get an SSL error --- not trusted
server certificate.

Interestingly, neither FF nor Google Chrome on my laptop have any issue
with this server.  And my iPod Touch's copy of Mobile Org is happy with
mydisk.se, too.

Unfortunately, MobileOrg does not offer any option to inspect the cert
and decide to accept it.

Is anyone else having this problem?  Is it fixable?

I fixed this with:

 No, you are not doing anything wrong: the default :exports value is
 "code", so the code ends up in your export. ``:exports none'' keeps it
 (and any results) from being exported.

 OTOH, try evaluating (C-c C-c) the code block, with and without
 ``:results silent''. There is a behavior difference and *that* difference
 is not affected by how you set :exports.

Aloha Robert,

Many thanks for this improvement to the example code.  I've added it to
the tutorial (and to my own bits of setup code).

All the best,

Aloha Petro,

Here's how I insert those links (perhaps someone else has a better way):

[[citep: (type this in the org-mode buffer)

M-x ebib (find desired reference in ebib buffer)

P Ret Ret Z (push the reference to the default buffer without using one
of the ebib format functions, then submerge ebib)

[O] Org as a publishing toolkit

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

Hi list,

So today I have been reseaching about higher-levels toolkits that
could help me get into TeX (and or LaTeX) and at the same time
allowing me to keep the text in a more human-readable format (easier
to mantain and to convert to other formats if needed).

I know that if I want beautiful formatted PDFs I will need to get into
TeX / LaTeX, and I already started doing that, but as I said, keeping
the text in a higher level format has benefits that you already know
about.

So I looked at asciidoc, the lower-level XML-based docbook, markdown,
pandoc, ConTeXt, etc.

Then I thought, why not try orgmode?

So, after reading this article:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html, I've then
realized how powerful the org-export feature is.

I can basically do this:
 * Keep the text in a (very) human readable format that I'm used to
and that is much better to maintain than any other format I know
(markdown / asciidoc) and integrated with my own orgmode personal
information manager!
 * Add / customize the LaTeX output in *ANY* way I want to. Thanks to
org AND babel! From what I can see, there are no limitations on how
complex the LaTeX customizations can be, it can essentially match up
any other "pure" latex documents out there.
 * As noted above, fully support LaTeX while still allowing me to export to:
   * plaintext
   * HTML
   * DocBook (and hence an array of other formats)

I mean, how cool is that? I'm only starting in TeX/LaTeX so I might be
overlooking some limitations, but from what I can see, orgmode is the
most pragmatic and powerful publishing framework I have ever come to
know.

And what excites me even more is that I can keep my book in my
preferred format and still output a beautifully-formatted PDF book
*and* still support other formats (such as mobi or epub through
docbook). Amazing!

By the way, if I want to use raw TeX or maybe ConTeXt, is it possible?
Not that I need, only curious :)

This needs more hype! I don't think people realize how powerful this is ;)

Cheers!

Marcelo.

Aloha Marcelo,

The LaTeX export tutorial is a work in progress.  I hope you find it
useful.  When you run across something that doesn't work (or make sense)
don't hesitate to come back to the list with a query or suggestion.

All the best,
Tom

Re: [O] Org as a publishing toolkit

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

Cool! Thanks.

Now that you mention it, I was wondering if something like "condition
export" is possible. For very specific localized LaTeX fetures, it
would be useful. Take this example:

#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

#+LaTeX:\yinipar{\color{red}H}ello World

This created a first-letter that is stylized differently. This won't
come out in any other exported, so I'd like to do something like
(NOTE: pseudo-code!)

#+LaTeX:\yinipar{\color{red}H}ello World

#iif not LaTeX
   Hello World
#end

If it is not possible what I can do is to pre-process the orgfile with
something like ERB (I'm familiar with Ruby) or another templating
language before exporting (and even automate it all by calling emacs
in batch mode ;) ), but it'd be nice if org supported that
out-of-the-box.

Cheers,

Marcelo.

Re: [O] Assigning a keyboard shortcut

Emacs has different ways to assign key-bindings but the method with kbd
seems to be the best one.

An excellent blog post about key-bindings in Emacs is

Re: [O] Org as a publishing toolkit

[Thomas S. Dye]

Aloha Marcelo,

The approach I would take here, which might not be what you want, would
be to use inline markup:

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html#sec-10_3

You would define the output for the various exporters in the link
definition, with something fancy for LaTeX and whatever else works in
the other export formats you care to support.

All the best,
Tom

Yes, I do, but I get the opportunity to continue through the certificate

this is android 2.2

Re: [O] mobileorg android refuses to syn with mydisk.se

[Matthew Jones]

Unfortunately this is a known critical issue which I have had great
difficulty in solving:

https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues/22

The workaround in
the case of mydisk.se, to say nothing of whether this would be acceptable to
you, is to use the non-https version of the mydisk.se webdav system.  This
is actually the first I have heard that mydisk's https has issues with
Android's certificate system.

I suspect there is some final solution to this problem, but I'm still
working on it... I'd recommend adding a note to that bug I just posted above
with the details that you have listed here and when I close it (hopefully
for the 0.6.0 release) you will be notified of it.

Re: [O] Org as a publishing toolkit

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

Thomas,

I have a more specific question. I have already managed to embed an
image to act as the cover of the book. However, the image is being
shown in the third page. I want the sequence to be like this:

1) Cover image
2) The sub-cover:

   "Title""
 My Name
   Date

3) TOC

4) Intro, chapters...

How could I do that?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Marcelo.

Re: [O] Org as a publishing toolkit

[Thomas S. Dye]

Aloha Marcelo,

Others might do this differently, but I don't use LaTeX for book
covers.  I only use it for the pages of the book.

It sounds like your cover image is floating, which is something that
LaTeX does with tables and images.  If you are new to LaTeX and don't
have a feel for how it handles "floats", then I recommend an
introductory text.  Leslie Lamport's book is terrific, but there are
other good introductions on the Internet.

Org-mode and its LaTeX exporter are *not* going to insulate you from the
need to learn some LaTeX, especially if you intend to write something as
complex as a book.

hth,
Tom

Re: [O] Org as a publishing toolkit

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

Cool, I will do!

But org doesn't impose some structure that might prevent me from
putting the cover in the first page? Just curious. I wouldn't also
like to have to edit the latex generated afterwards, but that's a
possibility.

Thanks!

 Cool! Thanks.

 Now that you mention it, I was wondering if something like "condition
 export" is possible. For very specific localized LaTeX fetures, it
 would be useful. Take this example:

 #+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

 #+LaTeX:\yinipar{\color{red}H}ello World

 This created a first-letter that is stylized differently. This won't
 come out in any other exported, so I'd like to do something like
 (NOTE: pseudo-code!)

 #+LaTeX:\yinipar{\color{red}H}ello World

 #iif not LaTeX
    Hello World
 #end

 If it is not possible what I can do is to pre-process the orgfile with
 something like ERB (I'm familiar with Ruby) or another templating
 language before exporting (and even automate it all by calling emacs
 in batch mode ;) ), but it'd be nice if org supported that
 out-of-the-box.

 Cheers,

 Marcelo.

Re: [O] Org as a publishing toolkit

[Thomas S. Dye]

Aloha Marcelo,

I don't /believe/ org will keep you from doing that.  

My guess is that you are going to end up redefining the LaTeX \maketitle
command, see

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html#sec-11_2

I've done this once or twice--it's an adventure for someone with my
limited programming skills.  You're likely to get needed advice from the
folks at comp.text.tex if your introductory LaTeX readings don't get you
where you want to be.

Good luck!

Tom

 You would define the output for the various exporters in the link

[O] Beginning R plot export

[John Tait]

Hi

Do I need to do extra configuration to get R plot output in LaTeX exports?

Using the simplest code block:

#+SRCNAME: graph
#+BEGIN_SRC R  :exports both
x=c(1,2)
y=c(2,4)
plot(x,y)
x
#+END_SRC

The numbers "1 2" appear in the LaTeX output, indicating that R is
running. The plot doesn't appear though. What am I missing?

Thanks

John

[O] Epub and Mobi Export

[Avdi Grimm]

Well, I got my eBook finished and released. Thanks VERY much to
everyone who helped me with LaTeX export questions.

Now I have a lot of people asking me for Epub and Mobi formats. I
thought that before I launched into producing mobile formats from my
Org-Mode, I'd see if anyone else has any experience producing these
formats.

So: has anyone produced Epub or Mobi from Org-Mode source? Any
thoughts on the best way to do it?

Thanks,

[O] file-error

[Jeff Kowalczyk]

I use el-get org-mode recipe, but I see the same behavior with a typical
org-mode config from init.el.

On org-mode git master start with emacs bzr trunk (emacs 24), org errors on 
load:

File mode specification error: (file-error "Cannot open load file" "lisp/org")
progn: Cannot open load file: lisp/org

Any idea what file mode specification in this context would be? The unix file
mode is normal:

[master]~/.emacs.d/el-get $ ls -al org-mode/lisp/org.el*
-rw-r--r-- 1 myuser users 774897 May 10 16:45 org-mode/lisp/org.el

Re: [O] Org as a publishing toolkit

Thanks Thomas. I got enough proof org can really be used to write a

exceptional ruby book (http://exceptionalruby.com/) using org ;)

It's nice to be part of such a great community. Orgmode ROCKS!

Thank you for the help, now I'll get some much needed LaTeX knownledge.

 Thomas,

 I have a more specific question. I have already managed to embed an
 image to act as the cover of the book. However, the image is being
 shown in the third page. I want the sequence to be like this:

 1) Cover image
 2) The sub-cover:

    "Title""
  My Name
    Date

 3) TOC

 4) Intro, chapters...

 How could I do that?

 Thanks in advance!

 Marcelo.

 Hi list,

 So today I have been reseaching about higher-levels toolkits that
 could help me get into TeX (and or LaTeX) and at the same time
 allowing me to keep the text in a more human-readable format (easier
 to mantain and to convert to other formats if needed).

 I know that if I want beautiful formatted PDFs I will need to get into
 TeX / LaTeX, and I already started doing that, but as I said, keeping
 the text in a higher level format has benefits that you already know
 about.

 So I looked at asciidoc, the lower-level XML-based docbook, markdown,
 pandoc, ConTeXt, etc.

 Then I thought, why not try orgmode?

 So, after reading this article:

Nice job!  The source code listings are really effective. I like how you
put the output box below the boxed source code:

most babel snippets (of pretty long sql). This behaviour is present on 
an Ubuntu VM with a scant 300Mbs as well as a Mac Pro with 6Gbs 
(although less of course). On the Ubuntu, I specifically see the CPU 
spike when typing! Very bizarre.

[Mehul Sanghvi]

How do I tell org-mode/beamer to not output the date that is printed
on the title page ?

[O] [OT] Custom remember template

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

Hey list,

I want a truly custom string to be output by the org-remember
template, so I thought I could do something like:


 ("Journal Entry" ?j (concat "* " (mycustomfunc)))

Since "mycustomfunc" and concat both return strings, I thought I
wouldn't have a problem...

But it fails with:

let*: Wrong type argument: char-or-string-p, (concat "kd" "d")

I'm not yet that good with elisp to debug that. Could someone give a
hand ? Or it's not possible at all?

Thanks,

Marcelo.

org-remember is more or less obsolete by now.  You should consider using
org-capture instead: it gives you much more flexibility (including the
ability to define a function that returns the template to be used).

Have you tried removing the "#+DATE:" line?

We need a backtrace: see section 1.4, "Feedback", in the Orgmode manual.
But clearly, this is not an orgmode error: emacs just cannot find the file
to load (for whatever reason - the backtrace will make clear what the reason
is, but it is probably an incorrect load-path or an incorrect file spec).

You actually need the #+DATE: line, but with an empty date:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#+DATE:

* foo
bar
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Thank you for correcting me. Should have checked instead of trying to
recall from memory. :-p

Hi Nick,

Nice to know that! I'll try org-catpure.

Thanks,

Here's how I did the cover of my book:

1. Generate a 1-page PDF of the cover (in my case that meant SVG->EPS,
then EPS->PDF via `ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dEPSCrop`)
2. Include the "pdfpages" package:
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage{pdfpages}
2. Override "org-export-latex-title-command" to insert the cover page:
(setq org-export-latex-title-command
  "\\includepdf[pages=1]{exceptional-ruby-cover-svg.pdf}")

Good to know. To add the time I'm now using this format.

Thank you for the explanations.

[O] Bug: Nesting of columns and itemized lists is reversed [7.5]

[Davor Cubranic]

In a Beamer presentation, if I nest multiple columns within a list item,
the enclosing 'itemize' environment gets closed before the 'columns'
environment that it contains. See attached .org and the generated .tex

I'm running GNU Emacs 23 from MacPorts, with Org-mode 7.5 installed from
source I downloaded from the Orgmode website.
