Hello,
I have problem with Org Mode, that it fails to display more than 18
images correctly, while exporting to PDF (LaTeX export).
I am using images in following manner:
#+CAPTION: Title of image
#+NAME: fig:pic001

#+CAPTION: Title of image

I was using successfuly Org Mode with Postgresql, with defaults
settings for user and password. And I use latest Emacs from git.
Now, I cannot execute SQL without specifing the user/password in
#BEGIN_SRC
What settings would I need to do to avoid that?

Hello,
I am exporting Org to Markdown, and when used with:

then the validator https://validator.w3.org/ is telling:

emacs -l ~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20170210/org-autoloads.el tmp/test.org --batch -f

Hello,
I have a very simple lisp output within Org Mode
file, and it delivers list of lists with 4-5
elements, and it displays nicely as a text.
#+BEGIN_SRC lisp :exports results
(load #P"/home/data1/protected//lisp/load-some-files.lisp" :verbose nil :print
nil)
(sku-list-values-by-location :lo
Just a tip:
when Orgzly application is downloaded from
www.f-droid.org it represents Org Mode on Android
which is good for notes, planning, and all files
created in Orgzly can be then imported to GNU
Emacs.
I find it very usable. It is here:

And by all means, I would never keep contact in Org file, that is for
short list fine,
I would recommend the software named `abook'[1] as it can convert between
the vcard format and CSV format, LDIF, and other formats handy to read
them into the Emacs Lisp structure. It is available in many GNU/Linux
system distributions[2].

I just know that for me longer time MobileOrg is not accessible on
F-droid.org and I could not update it, and also was not usable
application. Orgzly is much better, but it is not Org as on Emacs. It
gives some compatibility.
