[O] Automatically naming and linking to an external file

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there,

I trying to make a script that 

(a) automatically creates a file e.g.  notes-04-15-2019.org 

(b) makes a link to notes-40-15-2019.org  
automatically in index.org  under a specific heading 
(c) open notes-04-2019.org  in the buffer

Does anybody know how to do this.

Thanks
M

Hi there,

I am trying to use ob-ipyton

Any suggestions on how to fix this ?
I am using emacs 26, python 5

Here is an example code block that I try to run. Note that python code blocks 
run ok, its just the ppython ones that fail

%matplotlib inline
x = np.linspace(0,np.pi,100)
y = np.cos(x)
plt.plot(x,y)

[O] ox-freemind

[marvin doyley]

Hi there,

I am playing with the org-mode to freemind exporter and was wondering how to 
show an association between two nodes.
For example, lets say I have an org-file

#+title: Cars
* Models
** BMW 
** Ford
** Tesla
* Colors
** Red
** Silver
** Black
** White
* Acceleration (0-60/s)
** 2
** 6
** 2

I would like to link Black with BMW so that when it is exported to freemind 
there is an arrow going from Black to BMW. Does anybody know how to do this ?

Examples of Effective Data Sharing in Scientific Publishing

Department of Chemical Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University, 5000 Forbes 
Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213,
United States

6 Supporting Information
ABSTRACT: We present a perspective on an approach to data sharing in scientific 
publications we have been developing in our group.
The essence of the approach is that data can be embedded in a human-readable 
and machine-addressable way within the traditional
publishing environment. We show this by example for both computational and 
experimental data. We articulate a need for new authoring
tools to facilitate data sharing, and we discuss the tools we have been 
developing for this purpose. With these tools, data generation,
analysis, and manuscript preparation can be deeply integrated, resulting in 
easier and better data sharing in scientific publications.

1. INTRODUCTION

a)Q

Data sharing and m anagement plans are becoming an
increasingly important requirement for scientific research. The
1
National Science Foundation requires a data management plan
for all proposals and has a formal statement on data sharing.
The Department of Energy is beginning to require this in some
proposals and has issued a formal statement on data management. Th e N ational 
Institutes of Health has a formal data
sharing policy.4 These mandates do not usually say how the data
management plan must be implemented, simply that there must
be one that is appropriate for the data being generated and
consistent with the needs of the scientific field.
There are several challenges to meeting these requirements.
Data is a generic term that refers to a broad range of information that varies 
in size and complexity. There is no single
solution that fits all data. The tools we use to write manuscripts,
which has been the primary mode of data sharing for decades
typically only include graphical or tabular data. Those data
are usually not machine readable nor are they easy to reuse. We
believe that progress in data sharing will require the development of new tools 
and social expectations about scientific data.
T hese tools will have to i n tegrate data directly into t h e
manuscripts and into the manuscript preparation workflow,
so that by the time one finishes writing the manuscript, the data
is already integrated and ready to share with no further work
required. When this is possible, data will be shared much more
frequently.
In this Viewpoint, we illustrate an example of a method we
have been developing that enables data, analysis, and code
sharing within the traditional publishing environment. We have
published several papers this way already including experimental
5
6
work, combined computational and experimental work, and
computational work. ' T hese manuscripts in published form
are indistinguishable from other manuscripts in those journals.
However, the Supporting Information files are very difFerent.
Although, at first glance, the Supporting Information files are
simple PDF files that provide additional information, there
are actually data files embedded (see Figure I a ) in those
PDFs which can be extracted and reused. The data is human
readable in most cases, and machine addressable, enabling
reuse and sharing. We will provide an example of this for a

[O] Problem with org-ref

[marvin doyley]

Hi John,

I am playing with org-ref,  the melpa version.

Everything works fine except, one thing.  When I drag a pdf to an empty bibtex 
file it doesn’t extract the doi ( no doi found in the file:/// ). I 
tried it pdf you used  in your video (Examples of Effective Data Sharing in 
Scientific Publishing), but I got the same error. Dragging the url to the 
bibtex file also doesn’t works for me.

cheers,
M

PS by the way, your video was excellent :)

Re: [O] CDlatex

Hi Nick,

You are correct it is still there,  but  I can’t start cdlatex-mode via the 
org-mode-hook (i.e., include add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'turn-on-org-cdlatex in my 
.emacs file). It only works when it type M-x cdlatex-mode in the buffer. Maybe 
it is clashing with something.

[O] Converting paragraph to plain lis

[marvin doyley]

Hi there,

Does anybody know how to convert a paragraph to a plain list, and vice versa. 
For example, I would like to convert 

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse viverra 
consectetur euismod. Donec non tempor turpis. 

to 

1. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. 
 2.  Suspendisse viverra consectetur euismod.
3.  Donec non tempor turpis. 

In one key stroke, this would speed up my brain storming process.

Thanks,

[O] org-babel pass data between blocks

[Marvin Doyley]

Dear All,

Is there way to pass data between blocks in org-babel. For example lets say 
have two blocks


#+begin_src python
from pylab import *
# Simple carrier
t=linspace(0,1,100);
fc=100;
Ac =1;
C=Ac*cos(2*pi*t);

#+end_src


What I would like to do is to pass both C and t to another python block, but it 
is not clear how to do this.

#+begin_src python 
from pylab import *

fm=1;
Am=1
m=Am*cos(2*pi*t); # message signal

z=m*C;   #double side-band modulated signal

#+end_src

 I see three options (there are probably many others):
 - use a session (see
 http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-python.html
 for instance);
 - have C and t be the results of the first block, and chain the blocks;
 - use noweb to include the second block is the first block.

[O] Counting number of children under heading

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there,

I would like to automatically count the number of children under a given 
heading. For example, I would like to have

* Cars (2)
** BMW
** Escort

 Putting  [/] at the end of header (in this case Cars), then putting the TODO 
keyword before each sub-header give me a partial solution

* Cars [/]
** TODO BMW
** TODO Escort


Is there way to do this without using the TODO keyword ?

[O] org in the wild update

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi John,

Org have also revolutionized the way I work. I  use it for teaching (making 
slides, creating homework and exams),  presentation, and in a couple of weeks 
we will be submitting our first org generated manuscript. In general,  works 
great for me, but for the students and my assistant  that have been another 
story. I would be interested to learn how you (a) cultivated an org centered 
culture in your lab, and (b) established an org based research environment 
(i.e., file sharing, org equivalent of track changes, etc. ).  

Best Wishes,

 This has been an ongoing process for the past 3 years that started with me 
 learning org-mode to manage my todo list.  Most of my students have taken a  
 class with me, where they already had some familiarity with emacs, and in 
 which I use org-mode for the assignments. Some of them took to it like fish 
 in water. A few have not drunk the water, and are thirsty as a result ;) For 
 track changes, I use git, and look at diffs when needed.
 
 I have had to train my students to prepare simple documents, e.g. org 
 documents, that grow in sophistication over time.  I generally provide a lot 
 of support for this, through my blog 
 (http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu[kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu]), and in 
 meetings. I am certain my students are tired of hearing answers to their 
 questions that start with I wrote a blog post that explains... But they 
 probably realize they get faster and better feedback when they send me org 
 docs. I am working towards a set of emacs packages for my group that will 
 streamline manuscript preparation, and communication. 
 
 For file sharing there are two main approaches we use. 1) Part of my group is 
 computational and we all have accounts on a shared cluster. We share some 
 documents there. 2) PArt of my group does experimental research. We use 
 Dropbox too. I have a folder for each student that is shared with them. Each 
 student has an org-file that outlines their current research projects and 
 priorities. We use this document to guide our meetings. These documents are 
 on my agenda list so I know what should be done and by when. And the students 
 know it too. This is also how we coordinate manuscripts. 
 
 Manuscripts are a primary learning experience. Our supporting information 
 files are routinely 20-100 pages long now because I make my students put 
 comprehensive detail about what they did in them. Partly so I can be sure of 
 what they did, and partly for others to learn from.
 
 So, it is still ongoing. The only alternative I am offering my group to 
 org-mode is LaTeX. They usually make a wise choice ;)

Re: [O] Exams with Org?

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there,

I have been using the latex exam.cls and org-latex-classes. Just us add the 
following to your .emacs file (for more details see 
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/74512)

(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
'(Prob
\\documentclass[t]{exam}

))


Note that this assumes that you have installed the exam latex class on your 
system. Here is a simple test file

Re: [O] Problems with org-bibtex

Hi there,

I found the bug.

It turned out that an old copy of bibtex.el was the culprit, deleting this
fixed  the problem.
Thanks again for all your help.

[O] Property drawers and Beamer

Hi there,

Is there a way to prevent the content of a property draw from been
exported. I am making a presentation that plan to turn into a paper later.
I have placed a bunch of material in property draws that I would prefer not
to export.

[O] Problem with beamer export

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there,

I just updated to Org 8.2.1 and for some reason when I export a frame I get

\subsection{Title}


rather than

\begin{frame}{Title}

\end{frame}


Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong ?

In my .emacs file, I have

(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes

Maybe, I missed something.

Re: [O] Problem with beamer export

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi John,

This is an interesting bug. When I use the stable version of org i.e. 8.2.1 
everything works as expected.

To use xelatex I included the following in my .emacs file (some code I picked 
up several years ago
(setq org-latex-pdf-process (list 
  xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o 
%f
  xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o 
%f
)) ;; for multiple passes

With regards to the split beamer theme this is included in beamer. I am using 
texlive 2013 on the mac.

thanks
M

 [snip]
 
 I can't current reproduce. I don't use xelatex, so I did `tlmgr
 install xetex` and the same for `xetex-def`. I wasn't sure if Org
 would pick up to use xelatex or not, so I took your example, exported
 to PDF via `C-c C-e l P` (for LaTeX Beamer) and then opened a terminal
 and did `xelatex test.tex`, the file Org created from my test.org file
 containing your contents.
 
 I attached the result.
 
 Some observations:
 - I noticed your latex output has beamer using the split theme. Where
 is it picking that?
 - You have a line in your #+ headers: `#+BEAMER_HEADER:
 \input{header_beamer} \date{}`. I don't have that file so I'm not sure
 what it does. I just removed it.
 - Here is my .emacs Beamer setting (default from the Org 8.0 new
 Beamer Worg page):
 
 #+begin_src .emacs
 
 (add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
 '(beamer
   \\documentclass\[presentation\]\{beamer\}
   (\\section\{%s\} . \\section*\{%s\})
   (\\subsection\{%s\} . \\subsection*\{%s\})
   (\\subsubsection\{%s\} . \\subsubsection*\{%s\})))
 
 #+end_src
 
 Again, see if the attached looks reasonable. Feel free to tell me how
 to more properly export via xelatex if you want someone to try and
 reproduce. I'm just not familiar with it at all, so I wasn't really
 sure bit gave it the 'ole college try.

Hmm,

I have reverted to pdflatex and still get the error. I note that were some 
errors when I make all see below, could this be the issue ??

I have to prepare for a class tomorrow so I going to switch back to the stable

 everything works as expected.
 
 To use xelatex I included the following in my .emacs file (some code I 
 picked up several years ago
(setq org-latex-pdf-process (list
  xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory 
 %o %f
  xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory 
 %o %f
)) ;; for multiple passes
 
 
 Based on my process, is it sufficient to have not reproduced your
 commands? Or can I just use the command you typed above to give it
 another whirl from the raw .tex file? On that note:
 - Is this an issue of converting Org syntax - .tex syntax? OR...
 - Is this an issue of the .tex file - xelatex - .pdf?
 
 Re-thinking about your issue, it seems it's the former. In other
 words, if the .tex file doesn't have \frame, that's something wrong
 with Org - .tex, not to do with the engine, right? If so, I'd
 probably look at diagnosing your Beamer definition, but I don't know
 how to.
 
 With regards to the split beamer theme this is included in beamer. I am 
 using texlive 2013 on the mac.
 
 
 Sorry... I was unclear. I'm aware of the various themes. What I
 *didn't* understand is why your output said it was *using* the split
 them.
 
 Addd... scrolled back up and just now caught that you included

[O] bug in new exporter

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there, 

When I include the following in my org file

#+attr_latex: scale=1.5, placement =[htb!]
[[file:img/figure2.eps]]

This was exported as


\begin{figure}[htb]
\centering
\includegraphcis[width=0.9\linewidth]{img/figure2.eps}
\end{figure}

rather than


\begin{figure}[htb!]
\centering
\includegraphcis[scale=1.5]{img/figure2.eps}
\end{figure}

I think there is a bug.

Thanks,
M

Re: [O] bug in new exporter

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi Rasmus,

It is still not behaving properly

#+ATTR_LATEX: :options scale=2

[[file:fig.pdf]]

yields

\begin{figure}[htb]
\centering
\includegraphics[scale=2,width=.9\linewidth]{fig.pdf}

which is still not quite right, including option, this still doesn't remove the 
extra width =0.9\linewidth :(

[O] Repeating tasks

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there,

Does anybody knows how to setup org to schedule repeated task between a
specified range of dates. For example, suppose I plan to work on a grant
proposal between 10 am - 1 pm every other day from May 1 to June 1, how
would I do this ?   My current practice is specify the start date with a
repeater (in this case +2d), and then delete task when the deadline has
passed. It though it would be more efficient I could assign a date range
rather than just the start date.


Cheers,
M

Re: [O] Repeating tasks

org-habit is not what I am looking for.

I would like to do something like

The idea is to repeat this task every other day from 2013-04-30 to 2013-06-02 
(from 13:30 to 15:00)

 I find Emacs Macros work very well for this.

 1) position the cursor at the front of the first line
 2) C-x (   to start recording a macro
 3) manually turn this item into a list
 4) position the cursor at the front of the next line
 5) C-x )   to finish recording a macro
 6) X-e to run the macro on the second item

 after that you may continue pressing e to re-run the macro, or run the
 macro any number of times with a numeric prefix argument.  This does
 however require some regularity in your list items.

[O] Searching linked files

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there,

Does anybody now how to search the content of a linked file ? I have a
master file that is included in org-agenda file list. This file contains
links to other research project related org files. Unfortunately, is seems
that only way to search the content of the link file is to include it in
the agenda file list, ideally I prefer not to do this.

To illustrate the problem, lets say I have a file myfile.org, which is
included in the list of org agenda files.

myfile.org contains the following

* Apples
* Pears
* [[file:~/test.org][Farmers]]

Similarly, test.org contains

* Jack
- Cheapest supplier of Apples
- Deliver
* Joe
-  Pear supplies and other vegetables
* Bill
-  Potential supplier


Lets say I want to do a keyword search for  vegetables, I would hit C-a s.
The problem is that unless I include test.org in the agenda file list, it
doesn't work.


I appreciate any help or suggestion.

Re: [O] \section*{}

[Marvin Doyley]

Thanks nick,

Can I use this to suppress the numbering selectively
For example, lets say I have

* Intro
* Results
* Figures and Tables

Can I use this to suppress numbering of Figures and Tables only ?

[O] org-bable and gnuplot

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there,

I am planning to use gnuplot to plot some data that I have in org table.
Everything is set-up correctly and gnuplot is installed my mac.
Unfortunately, when I run the following org file I get a zero byte file --
everything seems to run ok, except nothing is written to the output file.
Does anybody know what I am doing wrong ?

#+tblname: testing
| x |  y |
|---+|
| 1 |  2 |
| 2 |  4 |
| 3 |  6 |
| 4 |  8 |
| 5 | 10 |
| 6 | 12 |
| 7 | 14 |
| 8 | 16 |
#+begin_src gnuplot :var data=testing :file output.eps :exports both
set title test
set auto x
set style data histogram
set style fill solid border -1
set boxwidth 0.9
plot data using 1:2
#+end_src

#+results:
[[file:output.eps]]

  so if your gnuplot is like my gnuplot then eps is not a known terminal
  type.  I'd suggest trying the following.  Also, notice that I changed
  your plot line -- histograms are not intuitive in gnuplot.
 

 snip

 
  #+begin_src gnuplot :var data=gnuplot-testing :file output.eps :exports
 both
  set term postscript
  set title test
  set auto x
  set style data histogram
  set style fill solid border -1
  set boxwidth 0.9
  plot data using 2:xtic(1)
  #+end_src
 

 Shameless plug: this and more is available at the orgmode gnuplot
 babel documentation on Worg. Check it out if you're interested.

 I cannot reproduce this. Could you be more explicit ? What is your test
 file, where do you have cursor when you use C-c -, etc.


 It looks as if C-c - has been remapped by some package. What does C-h k
 say for it? What minor modes are in effect in the planner.org buffer?
 Maybe if you ask for Help with ? in the context above, it'll give
 you an idea of who it is that's doing this.

[O] Extracting pdf metadata

[Marvin Doyley]

Hi there,

Does anybody have a lisp code that can extract metadata from pdf. There is
an interesting program called sciplpore (
http://www.sciplore.org/software/sciplore_mindmapping/ that does this for
freemind), it might be useful if were able to do the same with org (i.e.,
important pdf meta data, bookmark and stickies directly into org).


Cheers

Hello everyone,

Is there a way to tell org to fold Latex environments (i.e., #+begin_latex
 #+end_latex) automatically at start-up ?  It would be nice to hide my
latex commands with out having to press tab all the time. It would be very
good if we could do this automatically using #+startup or  a function that
folds all latex environment in the buffer, like AUCTEX

 ugly the script itself might be.)

 I'll try to clean it up and make it available as soon as I can.

 Not sure about this variable, but you might try the property :prepend

 C-h v org-capture-templates RET

 The rest of the entry is a property list of additional options.  Recognized
 properties are:
