[O] Embedded video in html-export

[Dov Grobgeld]

Is it currently possible to inline a video file in the html export? Right,
now I only get a link, while what I would like to have is:


Sorry, no video in this browser.


Thanks,
Dov

Making advertisement for my own stuff, you now have the option
"--body-only" to the Orgmk family of scripts (among others, org2html).

See https://github.com/fniessen/orgmk for more information (or example
code).

Not sure what exactly you are asking but IIUC maybe something along
these lines will work for you:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#+latex: {\footnotesize

  org stuff here

#+latex: }
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Choose the font size you want.

You can also /shrink/ individual frames in beamer.

Yup, you need to export as html5, and set the html5-fancy option to
true. See the manual:

You mean that:

[O] Make * bold?

[Rainer M Krug]

Hi

I would like to make three stars bold - is this possible? I have the
following table and at the moment, I get what is in the latex
column. But I would like to have what is in the last column.

| org | latex| what I would like |
| *3.96e-21 *** * | \textbf{3.96e-21 **} *   | \textbf{3.96e-21 ***} |
| *4.11e-01   | \textbf{4.11e-01 \textbf{*}} | \textbf{4.11e-01 ***} |
| *2.07e-03 ***   | \textbf{2.07e-03 **} | \textbf{2.07e-03 **}  |
| *3.43e-02 **| \textbf{3.43e-02 *}  | \textbf{3.43e-02 *}   |

Line 1 and two are just tries to see if there iss a difference with or
without space *there is, but none works).

Line 3 and four, i.e. two and one stars, works as expected.

Any suggestions on how I can get the three stars in bold? I could
obviously use \textbf{} in the table, but I also export the document
to html - so this would not be an option.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Rainer

Hi Achim,

Sorry for that.  I was not aware that fixes should go to maint.  I just
naively took the first best branch (which was master) for applying the
change.  BTW: It looks like a good soul already merged the patch into
the maint branch.

A formal error plus unintelligible gibberish.  Hard to imagine how a

Thanks for the link.

I just wonder if the text about line 1 is correct.

--8<---cut here---start->8---
Generally, it starts with the filename that has been changed, followed
by a column.
 ^^
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Shouldn't this be 'colon'?

I must say pgfplotstable looks interesting but also quite complex.

Are there any examples on how I can use pgfplotstable within the org
context (apart from one huge LaTeX code block)?

This works perfectly fine for me with both dvipng (my default choice)
and imagemagick.  The problem may be in your LaTeX installation: what
fonts are used etc.?

What does the PDF or DVI for this LaTeX file:

Thanks - it does, indeed. Strange that it works for both export
backends.


But there are a few formating issues with this:

1) in tex, the spacing between two is different to the spacing between
three
2) in html, the asterix are at the bottom and
3) it is not very readable in org.

I hear you.  My strategy so far has been: just write org content and an
ideal lookup solution will eventually be found (via threads like this
one!).

This weekend I took a first step and *finally* got agenda-based
searching to work.  For better or worse, my setup intentionally spreads
org content over a few areas:

For a few explicit, "global" files (eg, todo.org)
  ~/org/*.org  

For daily, private notes:
  ~/org/web/notesnotes.org   

For a wiki-like blog / knowledge bank:
  ~/org-pub/topics//index.org

By default, my attempts with org agenda search was not finding files in
these areas.  Particularly the latter two were difficult for me to
figure out how to tell org about.  The final solution was to walk these
directories at initialization time and add all .org files found to
org-agenda-text-search-extra-files.  Here is the most concise way to do
that which I found after various searches:

(require 'find-lisp)
(setq  
 org-agenda-files (list "~/org")
 org-agenda-text-search-extra-files 
 (append
  (find-lisp-find-files "~/org-pub/topics/" "\\.org$")
  (find-lisp-find-files "~/org/web/notes/" "\\.org$"))
)

If anyone knows better ways to do this, I'm all ears.  I'm particularly
wondering how long-running org sessions will handle newly created topics
or notes in this setup.

-Brett.

What about simply:

i.e. put the macro reference directly in the table?

I have just tested 
and it works. I conclude that the problem comes from imagemagick. 

But dvipng does not succeed to make png images of proofs via bussproofs.sty. 

For example, I do not succeed to transform this proof into a png image: 

\begin{prooftree}
\def\fCenter{\ \Rightarrow\ }
\AxiomC{}
\RightLabel{\scriptsize{Ax.}}
\UnaryInf$A \to \bot, \bot \fCenter \bot$
\RightLabel{\scriptsize{$L\neg$def.}}
\UnaryInf$ \neg A, \bot \fCenter \bot$
\RightLabel{\scriptsize{$R\neg$}}
\UnaryInf$\bot \fCenter \neg \neg A$
\AxiomC{}
\RightLabel{\scriptsize{Ax.}}
\UnaryInf$A, \bot \fCenter \bot$
\RightLabel{\scriptsize{$R\neg$}}
\UnaryInf$\bot \fCenter \neg A$
\RightLabel{\scriptsize{$R\land$}}
\BinaryInf$\bot \fCenter \neg \neg A \land \neg A$
\end{prooftree}


I succeeded also to do it with Gnus by adding #+LaTeX_HEADERS:
\usepackage{bussproofs} on the top of the message, and no it does not no
more... that's another problem...

An ECM for the infloop could help. If it segfaults, however, it is

If we want to preserve backward-compatibility, t, nil and a list of

The general rule is that bugfixes for bugs that are (also) in maint are

That part of the test, specifically the attempt to catch the error is
not working for me on Windows, most likely because I use an older
version of Emacs there (I don't recall which one, either 23.4 or 24.1 I
think).  This probably comes about because ert-deftest is a macro, but I
don't have time right now to dig into it.

The value gets exported to LaTeX in the table, but that apparently
happens at export time. So if you have formulae in the table that refer
to that cell they don't compute using the value.

[O] org agenda custom command: "search" block, cannot sort by priority?

[Brady Trainor]

Can I expect sorting by priority to be easily usable in the `search'
block for `org-agenda-custom-commands'? 

Here is a minimal example, where I can pull all headlines by using a tag
filter on a nonsense tag, whereas the search for all headlines doesn't
seem to be sortable. Should I be aware of the limitations of the
`search' block? 

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
  `(("g" "Global view of items"
 ((tags  "-asdfjkl;"))

No, actually it doesn't. The node:

   * A working example
   This node contains a simple setup, which can be used to explore
   org-index. Further below there is also
   [[id:848c6d2a-6e8b-4c93-8481-19e6db7e6ca8][A sample for an index table]].

refers to an id that doesn't exist.

If you take the #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE, #+END_EXAMPLE out from around the list 
and add the properties/ID drawer, then the "C-c i bar[RET]" does bring 
up the *org-index-occur* buffer. Typing [RET] wont take you to the node

referenced by ref R2, because it doesn't exist anywhere.

It shows you how to search, but not how to create a reference to anything.

Still trying various approaches...

Personally, I'm not trying to model all of human knowledge in my Org

issue, but I count 71 different tags in my agenda files, and I don't
feel overwhelmed. You can get a bit of tag hierarchy with tag groups,

To my knowledge, no one's implemented a reverse link lookup, but it
should certainly be possible. Using the <<>> link notation as a
tag, however, would probably end up being more work (and more confusing)
than it's worth.

I see... perhaps it should be filed under "wish list" to support an "arbitrary 
days of week" repeater style. One way might be something like "<2014-10-13 Mon 
+4d +3d>": First advance by 4 days, then by 3 days, then 4 again and so on.

I would call it a low priority enhancement. There might actually be some 
benefit to tracking consistency on the two days separately. But the fact 
remains, if someone needed to treat it as one task that happens on two or three 
arbitrary days during the week (always the same days) and it wouldn't be useful 
for her to split them, org-habit currently does not support this as far as I 
can see.

Thanks for the review! Particularly the concision of this last. I'm

In general I'd say that's true, though I'm often doing analysis as
part of a project team. It's easier to just do it once, turn scattered
phrases into an actual narrative/walkthrough, and not have to re-write
it more formally later. I've taken to this after making little
headlines for myself and then having to piece together bits and pieces
(tables, plots, commentary) into something I can share with the team.

So, my situation may be a bit different as I'm strictly speaking about
using org to manage work-related knowledge (which generally is not
occurring in a black hole and thus must have some degree of polish).

I like that, and think it makes sense.

[O] Sharing: Agenda skip function to remove future-scheduled items

[James Harkins]

I often ask questions, or complain about things (or both at the same time), so 
it's nice to share something.

I was making a block agenda, splitting up tasks by location (loosely inspired 
by GTD). But I realized that I didn't want to see items that are scheduled for 
the future, because this is my agenda view for "what tasks are available right 
now." For example, if I have a task to update my grade sheet, it doesn't make 
sense to do that before I've taught the lessons -- so I don't want to see the 
task until it's actually due.

I didn't find a straightforward way to use a property search such as "scheduled 
is nil or scheduled > today," but I did (with some false starts) hack up a skip 
function that seems to do the job. So, in the relevant blocks, I have 
(org-agenda-skip-function 'hjh-skip-future-scheduled), and... perfect.

(I'm sure it's not the most efficient, but I found elisp's time comparisons to 
be confusing, and I didn't want to consider time-of-day either. Performance is 
OK for my use.)
