Re: [O] The Org-ODT exporter is now in Org's core (latest git)
Bastien bzg at altern.org writes: This is a more general problem: converting .odt (or even HTML, .tex, etc.) back to org-mode would indeed be wonderful. The most promising road I see for that would be to let pandoc *read* Org files: http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/ Any haskell hacker around? There is ODT2ORG (https://bitbucket.org/josemaria.alkala/odt2org/wiki/Home) which lets you import odt files in org-mode. It works quite well and may need just some minor polishing.

Maybe someone who knows elisp can create an emacs-frontend for running one or both scipts. This could result in a neat and elegant way to import odt and doc-files into org.

For some reason I was assuming that the odt importer would have been written by Jambunathan as a companion piece to his exporter. -- Herb

this is wonderful! many thanks to Jambu, Bastien, Christian and everyone involved. That would be Jambu, for developing the whole thing, and Bastien, for integrating it. (I have only done a bit of testing and cheerleading.) Yours, Christian

Thanks a lot to Jambunathan for all this efforts, let's make sure everything is smooth before the release! Best, Great. I'm wondering what sort of progress has been made on the ODT importer. For example, is it able to convert an Org export to ODT back to Org format with result being same as the original Org file that was exported? If something is lost, what is lost?

A big thank you to Jambu for his amazing efforts and of course to you and others involved. :) Agreed. An excellent job on the org-odt functionality. Although I still prefer using LaTeX to write my resume in, I have switched to using org-odt for writting normal, basic documents. I do have my resume in org format now as well, just have to work out some issues regarding headers, etc. which Jambunathan has been very helpful with. Little by little org-mode will take over my life. cheers, mehul -- Mehul N. Sanghvi email: mehul.sang...@gmail.com
