[O] MobileOrg 1.5.2 - Dropbox sync error

[Erwin Panen]

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to re-enable MobileOrg on my 1st gen iPad.
iOS is version 5.1.1 (9B206)
MobilOrg is version 1.5.2

I've had login problems on iPhone too, but these have been solved by 
reinstalling MobileOrg (1.6.1 now).

(There was no upgrade notification in the App Store..)

Problem is I cannot upgrade the ios version on the iPad as the machine 
is getting way too slow.

But it remains a perfect tool for a lot of jobs.

MobileOrg throws the familiar Dropbox Error:
Bad username and password or network error..

Does anyone have an idea to get sync going again?

Thanks for helping out!

[O] Solution for compatible file linking?

[Erwin Panen]

Hi everyone,

I'm using orgmode in a multi OS environment. (OS X, Linux  Windows)
Most of the time I carry a USB-drive or stick.
I try to keep all linked files inside the same directory structure
used on all OS's.

Does anyone have a solution to keep links in Orgmode files intact
between OS's?
I realize the mount point is crucial in this respect. 
But on Windows systems, the drive letter can change quite at random...

Or could windows shellinks
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb776891%28v=vs.85%29.aspx)
or IUniformResourceLocator (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/229092)
provide a solution? (I have not investigated this yet)

Thanks!

Erwin

Maybe running a portable app webserver might be a solution?
Could this serve up a uniform file location for linking from within orgmode?

Just a thought.

[O] outline numbering (similar to Orgmode manual)

[Erwin Panen]

Hi everyone,

Is there any (easy) way to convert headlines to numbering?
What I'm thinking of is similar to the Orgmode manual, where you have 
the numbered structure representing sections/paragraphs etc.


Reasoning behind this:
- easily export pdf or printed report material
- orderly (sequential) execution of list

Thanks for your help!

[Orgmode] Re: GNU devroom at FOSDEM 2011

[Erwin Panen]

Hi Bastien, Hi all,

Much to my disappointment due to my erroneous driving and bad navigation 
system I only arrived just after your session. (I only found out at the 
last minute that Org-mode would be present at Fosdem :-( )

Will any transcript or video be available?
I would be very interested!

P.S. A pity there was no opportunity to buy the new book or any other 
supporting material s.a. the bags, T-shirts etc.


Hope you had a good time in Bruxells!

Regards,

Erwin

I will be there too and happy to meet who changed my life (well at least
from the productivity point of view).

@Bastian: if you use OSX and growl maybe you could find this useful for
the presentation:

--8---cut here---start-8---
(defun growl-popup (msg)
   Pop up a growl notification with MSG, or display an Emacs message.
The \growlnotify\ program is used if `window-system' is non-nil and
the program is found in `exec-path'; otherwise `message' is used.
   (interactive)
   (if (and window-system (executable-find growlnotify))
   (shell-command (concat growlnotify -a /Applications/Emacs.app/ -m 
  (shell-quote-argument msg)))
 (message msg)))

(defun popup-last ()
   (interactive)
   (let
   ((last-key (key-description (this-command-keys
 ;; check if we don't have a stupid sequence
 (unless
 (= (length (this-command-keys-vector)) 1)
 (growl-popup last-key

;TODO: make it an external package and better a minor-mode, switching would 
also be much easier

(setq growl-mode nil)

(defun growl ()
   (interactive)
   (if (not growl-mode)
   (progn
 (message enabling growl mode notification)
 (add-hook 'pre-command-hook 'popup-last)
 (setq growl-mode t))
 (progn
   (setq-default pre-command-hook (remq 'popup-last pre-command-hook))
   (message disabling growl mode notification)
   (setq growl-mode nil
--8---cut here---end---8---

In this way people can see what you are pressing (all commands with at
least two keys).

[Orgmode] orgmode / emacs /msmtp on winxp

[Erwin Panen]

Hi,

I guess this is perhaps more emacs related but here goes:

I'm trying to get going with gnus.
My system is running XP.
I have msmtp installed and working. (tested using cli)
In emacs using eshell and issuing msmtp --v I get the correct output.

Versions:
Gnus 5.13
Emacs 23.2.1
msmtp 1.4.17

What goes wrong is this:
In emacs I issue M-x mail, fill in, and C-c C-c to send = this opens my 
Thunderbird client.


I've added the equivalent of these to .emacs and .gnus
---
;; with Emacs 23.1, you have to set this explicitly (in MS Windows)
;; otherwise it tries to send through OS associated mail client
(setq message-send-mail-function 'message-send-mail-with-sendmail)
;; we substitute sendmail with msmtp
(setq sendmail-program c:/gnu/bin/msmtp.exe)
;;need to tell msmtp which account we're using
(setq message-sendmail-extra-arguments '(-a anderson))
;; you might want to set the following too
(setq mail-host-address gmail.com)
(setq user-full-name Anderson Guy)
(setq user-mail-address sivaram.notth...@gmail.com)

What can I do to debug this behaviour?

[Orgmode] Question on Document creation workflow

[Erwin Panen]

Happy New Year to all listreaders  users!!

I'm debating a possible workflow, here's the idea:

Would the following be conceivable?
- I'd like to prepare a legal (or comparable, just an example) dossier / 
document
- document would contain links to other documents, even snippets from 
such document (use bib reference on self made document?)

- Document needs to be exported to:
  - doc format
  - pdf format
  - html format (ready to be publicezed on web server)
  - preferabley links need to remain intact  functioning

Is this conceivable at all?
Is anyone doing something similar? Example or pointers to example?
What would be the best approach to treating linked files? (even 
considering using git)

knowing that you'd be working on multiple PC's even multiple OS'es?
I'm mainly worried of the relative position of the linked files..

Thanks for your precious input!

Re: [Orgmode] publishing to PDF

[Erwin Panen]

 Hi Sebastian,

Thanks for your very fast reply :-)
Yes, I can issue 'pdflatex' from a console:
-
macbook:~ erwin$ pdflatex
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (TeX Live 2009)
**
-

I assume it must be a matter of config?

Hi everyone,

I'm working on Mac, using Emacs 23.2.1 with Org-mode version 6.36trans.

I seem to have various LaTeX stuff installed on my MacBook. I have to admit that
I have no experience with LaTeX whatsoever. (TeXShop, LaTeXit, TeXWorks) So I'm
not sure if my configuration if any is correct in this view.

Hi Erwin,


not sure about MAC, but for most UNIX shells (i think), a return value
of 127 means command not found.  It seems some LaTeX packages are
missing.

Most of us use the TexLive distribution, a collection of the most
commonly used LaTeX packages and binaries.

Are you able to execute the command `pdflatex' in a console?

[Orgmode] EmacsForMacOSX - copy paste in orgmode

[Erwin Panen]

Hi Juan,

I hope you don't mind me mailing you directly. I copied orgmode list in cc.

Do you have a way to copy / paste between say Firefox and Emacs / orgmode?

It doesn't seem to work, and I've found some posts googling, but no 
apparent solution. It seems Acquamacs will do it, so I'd assume it's a 
matter of configuring .emacs?


Thanks,

[Erwin Panen]

 Hi Puneeth,

Thanks for your help;
This does indeed seem to enable copy/paste.
Unfortunately Ctrl / Option - c/v/x do not work. Probably this has to do 
with my keybindings (I'm not very good at these :-) ).

I have this in my .emacs:

-

;; command-` to switch frames
  (global-set-key [?\M-`] 'other-frame) ;  # This sets the key binding

  (setq mac-option-key-is-meta nil)
  (setq mac-command-key-is-meta t)
  (setq mac-command-modifier 'meta)

I don't use MacOSX. But, I have the following elisp code in my
dot-emacs (Linux).

 (setq x-select-enable-clipboard t)

I think this should work for you too. I'm not sure, though.

[Orgmode] MobileOrg - One step further

[Erwin Panen]

Hi,

Thanks to numerous helpfull instructions from Richard Moreland, I'm 
trying to take MobileOrg one step further.


Here's what I try to do:
- I've setup MobileOrg on 3 devices: My Mac, my winXP machine and my iPad.

At first I wanted stuff to work between my MacBook and the iPad, as most 
required stuff is present on the Mac by default. (md5sum)
Next, I've updated my XP Orgmode version to be the same as my Mac's 
(6.36trans) On my XP machine, I have Emacs on a USB 2 1/2 harddisk, and 
I've added these lines to my .emacs file:


;; MobileOrg
(setq org-mobile-directory C:/Documents and Settings/erwin/My 
Documents/My Dropbox/MobileOrg)

(setq org-mobile-inbox-for-pull ~/git/org/from-mobile.org)

;; Checksumming
(setq org-mobile-checksum-binary K:/winpack/msys/bin/md5sum.exe)


Now all seems well, and I was really wondering how multi-device syching 
would behave. I'm not sure if it's supposed to function at all, and 
would welcome any practical experience from other users reading this.


So I created a simple new-tasklist.org file with a couple of TODO items
I did this on the Mac, and took care to have only new-tasklist.org in 
the agenda files.

Next I did org-mobile-push
Next a sync on the iPad
So far all came perfectly through.

I then copied over this very same ~/git/org/new-tasklist.org file to my 
XP ~/git/org/directory

Next I added this file to my Agenda files list on XP's Orgmode.
Then I changed one TODO status to DONE.
Next I did a org-mobile-push.

Next synched back on the iPad.
Now I found all my Agenda files copied over to my iPad, but the 
new-tasklist.org wasn't there


What is happening here? Will md5sum.exe calculate and detect a 
difference in new-tasklist.org?

Or is it just by design not intended to do multiple device sync?

Thanks a lot for your help  insight!

[Orgmode] OrgMobile - just a little help?

[Erwin Panen]

Hi folks,

Trying to get my head round setting up MobileOrg :-)
I don't consider myself a real orgmode expert, but I (seem) to find my 
way round. (This is mainly due to me wanting to really grasp anything, 
and of course the combination Emacs / Orgmode / lisp has a seemingly 
neverending list of capabilities - so it takes some time to grasp a 
little...)


What am I doing?
- I've set up Emacs / Orgmode on my newly acquired MacBook, this is done 
(see other helfull posts)
- I've MobileOrg on my iPhone and iPad (any sight on a HD update for 
mobileorg?)
- I've also setup a DropBox account, and setup MobileOrg to sync with 
it. - This seems to be working


Now I'm trying to imitate what Richard Moreland has recorded in his 
screencast.
I come to realize that MobileOrg functions / depends on creating agenda 
views.
I'm not very proficient with agenda views, but I've found that any org 
file that I add to the File list for Agenda gets synched to my Dropbox 
folder,
and synched to my iPad - So I think this is Ok, and I'm glad I 
understand this.


Now what I'm missing - and here's my real question:
- On my iPad / iPhone I don't see any TODO tags or TAGS appearing.
I have created Richard's main.org file, and copied over these, but 
I don't see any TODO state or such coming up:

-copy
#+STARTUP: showsome
#+TAGS:{ home work garage errand }
#+SEQ_TODO: TODO(t) STARTED(s) WAITING(w) APPT(a) | DONe(d)
#+SEQ_TODO: PROJECT | FINISHED
#+SEQ_TODO: INVOICE SENT | RECVD
-end copy

What am I missing here?

[Erwin Panen]

Richard, thanks for clarifying.
I feel like such a moron :-)
I'm fighting with this for such a long time - and it's so obvious...

A couple more questions:
- Suppose I have my main.org, containing a tasklist.
Is it correct that, on the mobile device, I can only change status, 
priority  tags

But I can't add a new *task* or item??
- I'm also confused about file location(s)
1. org-mobile-directory ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg
2. org-mobile-inbox-for-pull ~/git/org/from-mobile.org
I've also read that By default all agenda files (as listed in 
org-agenda-files) are pushed to MobileOrg using Push / Pull
Is it then true, that e.g. agenda files located in ~/git/org/ will 
ALSO by synched to MobileOrg?

- Lastly (for now :-) )
What is the purpose of the Show app badge in Settings on the iPad
Do you have any plans for a HD version? (iPad)

Thanks a lot for this tremendous App!
And your precious help :-)

There are a few touch regions on each table row in an outline in

[Orgmode] Re: OrgMobile - just a little help?

I'm still not getting it... Must be really stupid :-(
This is the message buffer with the error I get when I try to 
org-mobile-push

--start error
Creating agendas...done

This is what I did:
- created new_tasklist.org in ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg and put some tasks  
scheduled stuff inside
- opened up ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg/index.org and appended the newly created 
file at the end like [[file:new_tasklist.org][new_tasklist.org]]

- did org-mobile-push

Hope to get this straight asap!
It would be so great :-)

I'm still not getting it... Must be really stupid :-(
This is the message buffer with the error I get when I try to 
org-mobile-push

--start error
Creating agendas...done
Saving all Org-mode buffers...
Saving file /Users/erwin/Dropbox/MobileOrg/index.org...
Wrote /Users/erwin/Dropbox/MobileOrg/index.org

org-mobile-copy-agenda-files: Input and output files are the same: 
Unknown error: 0, /Users/erwin/Dropbox/MobileOrg/main.org, 
/Users/erwin/Dropbox/MobileOrg/main.org

-end error---

This is what I did:
- created new_tasklist.org in ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg and put some tasks  
scheduled stuff inside
- opened up ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg/index.org and appended the newly created 
file at the end like [[file:new_tasklist.org][new_tasklist.org]]

- did org-mobile-push

Hope to get this straight asap!
It would be so great :-)
Thanks for sticking with me!

Hi Erwin,

There are a few touch regions on each table row in an outline in
MobileOrg. If you tap the blue icon at the right of each row, you
will view the details for that node (IMG_0019.PNG). This is useful
for editing a node's contents, todo state, etc.

If you want to dig into the outline, just tap more to the left, on the
text of the node (in this case, main.org). That should present you
with the child nodes of the file, and you can continue digging down
from there.

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any more trouble.

Hi,

I'm adding - if attachments allowed - 2 screenshots.
What happens with my main.org file is this:

- It gets synched to my iPhone allright
- On my Outlines list, the main.org file is properly listed
- When I slide to open main.org, the Tasks Brainstorms items are not
visible.
- I see there main.org, it says No body text (greyed out), Tdo state:
None,
Priority None, Tags, None
- However, when I tap on View as Document, I get my tasklist, and I
can
see everything, but off course can't treat them as Todo...

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you!

Hi folks,

Trying to get my head round setting up MobileOrg :-)
I don't consider myself a real orgmode expert, but I (seem) to find my
way round. (This is mainly due to me wanting to really grasp
anything,
and of course the combination Emacs / Orgmode / lisp has a seemingly
neverending list of capabilities - so it takes some time to grasp a
little...)

What am I doing?
- I've set up Emacs / Orgmode on my newly acquired MacBook, this is
done
(see other helfull posts)
- I've MobileOrg on my iPhone and iPad (any sight on a HD update for
mobileorg?)
- I've also setup a DropBox account, and setup MobileOrg to sync with
it. - This seems to be working

Now I'm trying to imitate what Richard Moreland has recorded in his
screencast.
I come to realize that MobileOrg functions / depends on creating agenda
views.
I'm not very proficient with agenda views, but I've found that any org
file that I add to the File list for Agenda gets synched to my
Dropbox
folder,
and synched to my iPad - So I think this is Ok, and I'm glad I
understand this.

Now what I'm missing - and here's my real question:
- On my iPad / iPhone I don't see any TODO tags or TAGS appearing.
I have created Richard's main.org file, and copied over these, but I
don't see any TODO state or such coming up:
-copy
#+STARTUP: showsome
#+TAGS: { home work garage errand }
#+SEQ_TODO: TODO(t) STARTED(s) WAITING(w) APPT(a) | DONe(d)
#+SEQ_TODO: PROJECT | FINISHED
#+SEQ_TODO: INVOICE SENT | RECVD
-end copy

What am I missing here?

Thanks for your patience help!

[Orgmode] Re: OrgMobile - just a little help?

[Erwin Panen]

Richard,

Thanks a lot for your help.
I've done as you indicated: emptied ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg
Next verified my .emacs
In fact it was identical to what you advised.
I commented out the line with org-mobile-inbox-for-pull, but this threw 
an error, so I uncommented it back.

At least the sync now runs allright, and I can change status of all.
I found I can add a new Tag value as well - this strikes me as odd in 
contrast to the fact I can't create new content. Perhaps an idea I have 
to get used to.


Also I have probably difficulty in understanding stage staging could 
you clarify this some more? When I read stage, I think of on stage or 
back-stage in terms of a theatre, should I think of staging org files 
as putting them on the mobile iPhone stage?


Further to the app badge:
Would this then show the number of changes like it shows on the Outlines 
icon or analoguous to e.g. the Mail icon in the iPhones dock?

If yes, on what basis will synching happen ?

About your new version:
I have iOS 4 on my iPhone, off course the iPad is not up to iOS 4 yet.
If you think I can be of any help, I'd be glad. But I think I should at 
least first master the functioning better..


I'm not sure if this is possible at all, but I think it would be 
extremely helpfull to kind of create a PRE CONFIGURED example setup, 
say in a temporary LEARNING directory, you could then perhaps fire up 
emacs using a pre-formatted .emacs file in conjunction with a free 
Dropbox account as an example.
I know it's always easy on the other side to thinker this out, but 
probably this would not be so easy to do. Just my 2 cents of course.

Or elaborate on the video...

I'll try to digg a bit further in the functioning of from-mobile.org
Is there a way to say ACCEPT a new note, and easily move it into the 
correct org file? A bit the way remember mode functions? Using templates 
the same way?


Extremely interesting  helpfull!
Thanks once again!

Erwin

This is correct, you can't modify the outline's structure.  The idea
is you can edit tasks if you need to (mark as done, edit content, etc)
and you can capture new notes.  When you get back to your PC and you
org-mobile-pull, the changes you made are integrated back into the
real org files on your desktop.  New notes are added into
from-mobile.org for you to refile as you please.  You would then
org-mobile-push again to make sure the server gets the latest
integrated copies.


- I'm also confused about file location(s)
1. org-mobile-directory ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg
2. org-mobile-inbox-for-pull ~/git/org/from-mobile.org

Sorry, not exactly sure what you mean here, but all files listed in
org-agenda-files are 'staged' during org-mobile-push.  If you have
extra files in ~/git/org/ that aren't in org-agenda-files, they won't
be available in MobileOrg.


What is the purpose of the Show app badge in Settings on the iPad


It was suggested that the app badge indicate outstanding edits you've
made that haven't been synced yet.  The idea is that you can make some
offline edits and click 'Sync' at your convenience.  The badge helps
you remember to do that.


Do you have any plans for a HD version? (iPad)


I've been tinkering with a new version that runs on iOS 4 (to support
the fast app-switching, which is great by the way) and iPad.  There
are some tweaks that need to be made still, if anyone wants to
volunteer I'd be happy to help :)

I think this example configuration might clarify things for you:

;; You should only touch these files, treat them as you normally would
(setq org-directory ~/git/org)

;; You should never touch these files with your editor.
Org-mobile-push and -pull are responsible for putting files into and
pulling files out of this directory.
(setq org-mobile-directory ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg)

So in your case, it is probably best to empty the contents of
~/Dropbox/MobileOrg, set the variables as described above, then do an
org-mobile-push again.

Hope this helps,
Richard

Re: [Orgmode] Help installing org-mode on a MAC please?

[Erwin Panen]

Hi Stefan,

Thanks a lot for your help, much appreciated.
I've done some more searching and decided to delay using Aquamacs for now.
My reasoning is that I at least want to try to remain as compatible as 
possible, i.e. linux, win XP and OS X.
Being fairly new to OS X, I already suffer from differences in keyb 
shortcuts and such.


For instance square brackets put me through a lot of trouble.
I found (on azerty laptop kb) I can get square brackets in OS X using 
option + shift + ( and option + shift + )

However this will not work with Emacs

Are there any specific differences in keyboard shortcuts for Aquamacs 
compared to standard emacs the way we find it on Windows and Linux?


Thanks a lot,

Erwin

Here is a small recipe for using the latest Org-mode development version with 
Aquamacs which works fine for me.

(1) Do a

git clone git://repo.or.cz/org-mode.git

in some directory of your choide, e.g. your home directory. (I believe, you 
have already done that.)

(2) cd to the new org-mode directory. Assuming you have installed Aquamacs in 
/Applications (default), change line 14 to:

EMACS=/Applications/Aquamacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Aquamacs

(3) make lisp/org-install.el
(4) make compile

(5) (optional and requires MacTeX or similar)
make doc/org.pdf

(6) Insert these lines in your .emacs file:

(setq load-path (cons ~/org-mode/lisp load-path))
(require 'org-install)

this assumes that (1) created an org-mode directory in your home directory.

(7) Restart Aquamacs (you can later find out about more subtle methods than 
restarting Emacs which does not take long these days)

Warm regards,

[Erwin Panen]

Hi Juan,

Thanks a lot for your information and help!
I've edited my makefile according to your example, and everything ran 
without any error, so thanks a lot for that.


I must admit being  somehow confused with all my previous trials 
dispersed over the past couple of months

I know I've also installed fink, and I also have emacs under fink somewhere.
Next to that I also had Aquamacs, and Emcsformacosx.

In the mean time I decided to stick with Emacsformacosx for the time 
being, the reason being that I want to have as much standard behaviour 
as possible.


I'm also looking into setting up org-mode with MobileOrg. I use DropBox 
for cloud storage.


Now I copied over my .emacs config file from my winXP box to my Mac. Of 
course this is a lot different if only for the path and pathstructure.

Now I seem to find e.g. that emacsformacosx is incomplete (if I'm correct).
I don't find any bbdb nor the typical lisp folder
(GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.29 of 
2010-05-09 on black.local)


I also suffer from keyboard shortcut difficulties. (I'm on azerty / 
laptop keyb)
I'm totally unable to get square brackets on my Mac. I can type them in 
other applications, but not in Emacs.

Do you know of a way around this?

Thanks for helping out,

Erwin

Hi Erwin,

I'm using Mac also (not Aquamacs emacs, but EmacsForMacOSX instead).

XEmacs is a completely different branch of Emacs, which I don't think
is available for OSX.

Then there is the text-mode emacs you run from the terminal.

And then there is the emacs you installed (Aquamacs), which runs on
its own graphics window (outside Terminal.app).

So don't confuse those 3 emacs versions.

You only need to install LaTeX if you want to build the documentation
(make doc). This is not strictly necessary.

Also, I have to modify the Makefile from org-mode to fit my emacs
installation. Aquamacs emacs should be similar, just check the exact
location of the Emacs application and change accordingly.

This is how my org-mode Makefile looks:

8
##--
##  YOU MUST EDIT THE FOLLOWING LINES
##--

# Name of your emacs binary
EMACS=/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs

# Where local software is found
prefix=/Applications/Emacs.app

# Where local lisp files go.
lispdir = $(prefix)/Contents/Resources/lisp/org

# Where info files go.
infodir = $(prefix)/Contents/Resources/info
8

The rest of the Makefile you leave as is.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
.j.

[Orgmode] file link format question - How to format link when square brackets [ ] are already in filename?

[Erwin Panen]

Hi everyone,

I guess this is a minor question, but it has puzzled me already more 
than once.

My example: The below example is normally all on one line.
---Begin code--
** Action: started to play video 
[[\\Dcerouter\public\videos\STORY_Station (sdb1)-CORE [32]\Les Rivières 
Pourpres 720x304\The Crimson Rivers.mkv][The Crimson Rivers.mkv]]

---End code

The problem is that the file location already contains a number between 
square brackets [32] which renders Org to treat the link in an 
unsuspected way.


Is there any way to circumvent this behaviour e.g. by inserting special 
characters to avoid Org to look inbetween the special characters?


Looking forward to a solution :-)

Thanks,

[Orgmode] images in orgmode

[Erwin Panen]

Hi all,

I'm finally trying out image support for Orgmode.
I've set up .emacs ((23.1.1 windows)according to 
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-configs/org-config-examples.php

After some slight modifications it seems to work.

I created a test.org file like this:
---begin test file
* Let's add a headline
* And a secong one
** Now a secondary level one
   [[~/images/scenario_27.png]]
   Try another one
   [[~/images/scenario_27.jpg]]

** Yes!! This works!!
** Now let's try this:
   `images/scenario_27.png´
--end test file---

Question:
When I click on one of the links between [ ] square brackets, my window 
splits in half, and in the bottom half the image appears.
Looking at iimage here: 
http://www.netlaputa.ne.jp/~kose/Emacs/iimage.html#4.+Key+bin
It should be possible to visualize these images inline with the text 
instead of a separate window.


What needs to be done to achieve this? Any pointer to a concise tutorial?.

Thanks for your precious help,

Erwin

Hi David,

Thanks for replying;
I don't understand what you mean. I was not aware off url-encoding, but 
found help here: 
http://www.eskimo.com/~bloo/indexdot/html/topics/urlencoding.htm 
http://www.eskimo.com/%7Ebloo/indexdot/html/topics/urlencoding.htm

So far so good.
The way I interpret this is that I can 'replace' [square brackets] in 
orgmode  with %5Bsquare brackets%5D
However when I try this, org does not 'convert' to a link...? What am I 
missing?


Perhaps for clarification:
The link I used in my example may be confusing, it is a long UNC path to 
a file on a network server that has somewhere [32] in it's name.

It's the [32] that seems to confuse org's linking.
I also noticed when hovering over [32] that org seems to recognize this 
as a footnote??


Thanks,

Erwin

You can url-encode the square brackets with %5B ([) and %5D (]) --
orgmode does this when calling `org-store-link' (C-c l) for a place
that contains square brackets and opens the links fine.

David, thanks for clarifying :-)
I think I get it now.
Your example helps!

What I did (wrongly) was to exchange the outer brackets with %5B and %5D
Instead I should have exchanged the brackets enclosing 32
I get an error of the file not found now, but at least Emacs/org does 
fold the link now and only leaves the description!


I guess I'll figure out the missing file problem.

Thanks very much for helping out!

with %5Bsquare brackets%5D


That's exactly what I meant. The behaviour you notice when /not/
encoding the square brackets is absolutely correct because of the way
Orgmode works: If you display a file in org-mode, the Orgmode
functions interpret the file's content and change the way certain
portions of the file look (folding of the link, i.e. only display
the description) and what you can do on this regions (i.e. open the
link).

So there is for instance a pattern that tells Orgmode that something
is a link: [[some characters][some other characters]] is recognized
as a link with a target (first set of characters) and a description
(second set of characters). If there are literal square brackets in
either the description or the target, Orgmode simply does not
recognize the string as a link.

The same principle (interpreting strings/a sequence of characters)
causes Orgmode to recognize the [32] as a footnote. Why? Because there
is a definition that says the a number between two square brakets is
a footnote.


However when I try this, org does not 'convert' to a link...? What
am I missing?


Strange. What Emacs and Orgmode version do you use?[1] I use 


GNU Emacs 23.1.92.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.6) of
 2010-01-31 on elegiac, modified by Debian

with

Org-mode version 6.34trans (release_6.34c.65.g45c58)

For me encoding the square brackets in the link name with %5B and %5D
works. That is: Emacs/Orgmode collapses the link and only displays
the description part.

[1] To find out your version simply execute org-version (M-x
org-version RET) and emacs-version (M-x emacs-version RET) and
switch to the buffer called *Messages* to see the version strings of
Emacs and Orgmode.

[Orgmode] Orgmode manual - available in *.org / emacs format?

[Erwin Panen]

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick question:
I'm looking to improve my emacs specifically my orgmode skills.
I thought I read somewhere the orgmode manual is included with emacs / 
org or downloadable as org document?


It seems contained in \home\emacs-23.1\info\info
However when I open this file with file-open file
the outlook is totally different than opening it via
menu- Org- Documentation- Info Documentation
Is the web / html version of the manual made by publishing Info 
Documentation? Can someone confirm?


I had a look at Publishing and the 2 contained sample configurations.
Will following these examples give the left-hand scrollable TOC like 
it's visible on the http://orgmode.org/manual page?


If you have any other links or tutorials covering publishing / LateX, 
much obliged.


Thanks a lot!

Erwin

[Orgmode] Re: dir or folder structure into org-file?

[Erwin Panen]

Matt, thanks a lot, this is exactly what I'm looking for :-)
I've downloaded and enabled it, but up to now I haven't really managed 
to use it...

I'll have to digg somewhat deeper

Cheers,

Erwin

I believe org-fstree is a good option for this:

[Orgmode] run emacs.exe - point to specific .emacs

[Erwin Panen]

Hi Group,

First off all thanks a lot for org-mode! I am trying to use it now for
a couple of weeks, and it (Emacs AND org-mode) is really compelling:-)
I've tried a lot from Outlook over Shadow-Plan and EccoPro. I'm using a
mix of Linux and M$ XP, mainly XP at the time :-(

Goal:
- set up emacs as a portable app on a portable 2.5" drive (or USB
stick for that matter) to run on windows
- sync the org-mode files with a location on a server (GIT , is a
directory sufficient, or does GIT need any installation on a linux box?)
- sync the same org-mode files n a linux laptop
- lastly, use the same USB drive org-mode files on a linux laptop.

Actions:
- tried to combine emacs with portable apps, but was unable to properly
get this running (the .emacs location on the USB stick did not work out)
- alternatively tried to combine emacs with pstart (http://www.pegtop.net/start/) 
 - this works best now, tried this on a couple different
machines, inspite of the drive picking up different drive letters (G,
K, etc)
   Pstart enables me to set the proper variable to point to my
\\usbstick\home\emacs-23.1\.emacs file.




Questions: 
- Is there any command line parameter to point emacs to a specific
/dir/subdir/.emacs_2 file?
 This would allow me to experiment with various subsets of .emacs
settings?
- I realize emacs can be run in 'server - client' mode; is it possible
to run emacs as a server on a windows box and remotely connect to this
server from another windows box?
- GIT; could anybody point out a good git tutorial to get this up and
running on a mixed windows / linux platform?

There's plenty of other questionmarks, but I don't want to overdo it
and take it from here..

Thanks a lot for your help!

Erwin
