[O] Emphasis in title export

2014-04-28 Thread William Kunkel
I have a title in which I need to have some text in italics. I tried this: #+TITLE: Analysis of Sartre's /No Exit/ But the slashes were just exported literally, instead of italicizing. This seemed like a pretty basic problem, but I've been unable to find anything about it via Google or in the lis

Re: [O] Recording results of TODO items

2014-04-15 Thread William Kunkel
I could well add it in a sub-heading under the TODO, I was just curious if there was a built-in org-mode way that I ought to be using instead of rolling something of my own. Cheers, Will On Tue, Apr 15, 2014 at 10:27 PM, Eric Abrahamsen wrote: > William Kunkel writes: > > >

[O] Recording results of TODO items

2014-04-15 Thread William Kunkel
Is there a standard way to record the outcomes of certain TODO items? For example, I had a TODO item to research and come to a decision about part of the architecture of a software project I'm starting, and I'd like to record the result of that TODO item, that is, the decision that I made. I found

[O] Compiling Org Mode on Windows - "date" Bug?

2014-04-05 Thread William Kunkel
