 ML Any current blorg users care to comment?

I slightly hacked blorg to allow to use relative links, proper symbols
escaping in links, etc. (and i dropped copying of data into directories
inside publish).  My version is available from

Re: [Orgmode] DocBook exporter code (version 1.0)

Hello

 CD == Carsten Dominik writes:

 CD One of the really weak features in Org's design is that exporting is
 CD not implemented in a generic way.  All exporters share a preprocessing
 CD step that turns Org format into something a little more sane and
 CD consistent.  Then each exporter goes its own way.  This setup makes
 CD maintenance sort of a nightmare, because each change to Org syntax
 CD needs to be implemented in all exporters separately.  Maybe you have
 CD read my swearing when I was trying to fix the LaTeX exporter which I
 CD did not understand completely at first - it was written by Bastien.

 CD I had really hoped that the next step in exporting Org would be to
 CD rewrite the exporter from scratch, in a generic way, that will then
 CD make supporting different formatters more stable and easy.  Adding a
 CD new exporter does not get us closer to that idea.

I think, that instead of parsing text directly, we need to write generic
exporter, that will export all data as a tree, consisting from header +
list of the entries, and inside these entries provide all needed
information about text (markup, url information, etc.).  And for new export
format, author will define only small piece of code -- mostly header
generation, and replacement tables for formatting tags, urls decorations,
etc.

What do you think about this? I can try to define basic API and we'll see
what we can do

 CD And I had feared that your exporter would be a badly hacked attempt
 CD reinventing lots of wheels, that could never become a really complete
 CD export.

 SW Do you know whether any of the git modes allow you to preprocess the
 SW files that get diffed or ediffed?

in magit you can see diff for separate files

 SW For example, let's say that you want to ignore all line moves.  In
 SW that case, you might run both files (e.g. an old version and the
 SW current version) through sort -u.

 SW Then the diff will look funny if you made a lot of changes, but if you
 SW only moved lines, it would show up as a zero diff, which is exactly
 SW what you want if you don't care about line moves.  If you made just a
 SW few changes and a lot of line moves, those changes would show up.  A
 SW more sophisticated algorithm could keep the changed lines in place.

 SW Likewise, you could preprocess org files to make diffs cleaner by
 SW eliminating all level changes, etc.

 SW I have done this in the shell for a long time and found it useful; it
 SW would be nice in a git mode, if any support that.

 SW Of course, perhaps it could be done in ediff, somehow.

 SW I wonder if dvc will win because it has backends.

You can look through modes, described in my article at
http://xtalk.msk.su/~ott/en/writings/emacs-vcs/EmacsGit.html 

In DVC, as i remember, support for Git is still very basic

Re: [Orgmode] blorg users?

2008-08-06 Thread Alex Ott
Hello

I'm currently started to use blorg, and found some problems with it - for
example, improper generation of relative links - for example,
[[../bla-bla-bla][description]] is turned into
http://my-url/:../bla-bla-bla - may be you know this problem?

P.S. is any mailing list for blorg users, or better to discuss all issues
in org-mode list?
