No, it is only in the POSTMATCH part. If you add it to the PREMATCH part
too, then your example would work. But I think it would be neater to put a
pair of literal "zero width space" characters in your file. I managed to
get this to work by doing:
(setq org-emphasis-regexp-components '("[:space:][:cntrl:]('\"{}"
"[:space:][:cntrl:]-.,:!?;'\")}\\[" "[:space:][:cntrl:]" "." 1))
This means you can write "fuzzy/wuzzy/wuzzabear" where there is a 0x200B
character (ZERO WIDTH SPACE) either side of /wuzzy/ (hopefully this will
survive in the email). I inserted the characters with "C-x 8 RET ...".
In case you prefer to have something more visible in the source file, I
also made it so you can use any ascii control character to bracket the
delimiters. For instance, the NULL character: "fuzzy^@/wuzzy/^@bear".
Note that those are not real NULLs, but are how they appear in the emacs
buffer. You can insert them with "C-q 0 RET".

[O] Inheritance of tangle file for org babel blocks is broken in org 9
Hi,
Since upgrading to version 9.0, tangling of babel source blocks no longer
works properly for me. Specifically, the tangle file name is not inherited
from settings in a property drawer higher up the sub-tree, so that "C-u C-u
C-c C-v C-t" no longer behaves as it should. This worked fine in version 8
and I can't find any mention of any deliberate change in the manual or the
change log.
Here is a minimal example that explains what goes wrong.
Cheers

Re: [O] Problem with python session
Yep, I agree. This is a wart in the vanilla python REPL, and org-mode can't really do much about it. Except maybe warn people. As John noted, this is less of a problem if you use ipython as your REPL. I think it is enough to just do #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (setq org-babel-python-command "ipython") #+END_SRC but I haven't tested this extensively since, as I mentioned, I prefer to use Greg Sexton's ob-ipython instead. This integrates with the Jupyter kernel by sending JSON to a web socket, rather than just pasting the source block into a buffer, and that seems to be a more robust approach.

Re: [O] Problem with python session
Hi Florian
I can reproduce your problem. This is (arguably) a bug in ob-python when
using the vanilla python interpreter together with the :session argument.
You can work around it by putting a blank line after the for-loop in your
second code block.
I say that it is arguable that this is a bug or not since you would have
exactly the same error if you were to literally type your code block in at
the python interactive prompt. That is, you have to give a second newline
in order to close the loop and return to the top-level prompt. However, it
is admittedly confusing to have different behavior with and without the
":session" argument.
I had never come across this bug myself, since I use ob-ipython for
interactive python sessions (https://github.com/gregsexton/ob-ipython)
Here is a minimal example that shows the problem.

Re: [O] Failure to display more than 18 images with captions
I think Jean Louis is right: it _is_ an org issue. The problem is that
the default value of org-latex-default-figure-position is "htb", which is a
very bad idea. The string always needs to contain a "p" in it somewhere,
otherwise latex will never be able to find a solution for figure placement
in cases with many floats and little or no text.
Fuller explanation: The position specifiers "h" (here), "t" (top), and "b"
(bottom) are all for placing floats on a page that has some "normal" text
on. For all 3 cases, there is a minimum fraction of the page that must be
occupied by text (controlled by the parameter \textfraction, which by
default is 0.2). To get pages that are entirely occupied by floats, you
need to use the specifier "p" (page). So, by just using "htb" you are
giving latex a set of requirements that are impossible to satisfy if there
are many floats and no text. Hence the problem with "Too many unprocessed
floats". I would recommend that the default be "htbp" instead.

Use the (counter-intuitively named) ":colnames no" header argument, see [[info:org#colnames]]. The default behavior is ":colnames nil", which supposedly strips off the table headers on input and reattaches them on output.

It looks like orgtbl-to-latex is calling org-export-string-as on each table
cell, which is presumably what is wrapping each \mu inside $$. This seems
wrong-headed to me, but I can't say I really understand what the code is
trying to achieve.
A workaround would be to directly use orgtbl-to-generic instead. Just
replace your ORGTBL line with
#+ORGTBL: SEND Ah-advection orgtbl-to-generic :splice t :skip 0 :lend
:sep

Hello,
I'm trying to use an Org mode Radio Table in LaTeX according to:
http://orgmode.org/manual/Radio-tables.html
http://orgmode.org/manual/A-LaTeX-example.html#A-LaTeX-example
My Org mode table is representing a matrix containing Greek letters
denoted by LaTeX commands (e.g., \mu). The radioing process wraps
these commands in dollars (\mu changes to $\mu$). I'm using `:splice
t' to return only table body lines (without wrapping them in a tabular
environment) to insert the table in my equation and matrix
environments. I tried `:fmt %s' hoping that the table fields would
be left untouched, but, no the translator still wraps my \mu's in $$.
Here is an example:
\begin{comment}
#+ORGTBL: SEND Ah-advection orgtbl-to-latex :splice t :skip 0 :fmt %s
| 1-\mu ||| | |
| \mu | 1-\mu || | |
| | \ddots | \ddots | | |
| || \mu| 1-\mu | |
| ||| \mu | 1-\mu |
\end{comment}
with the translated result
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:Ah-advection}
A_{h}=
\begin{bmatrix}
% BEGIN RECEIVE ORGTBL Ah-advection
1-$\mu$ \\
$\mu$ 1-$\mu$ \\
\ddots \ddots \\
$\mu$ 1-$\mu$ \\
$\mu$ 1-$\mu$ \\
% END RECEIVE ORGTBL Ah-advection
\end{bmatrix}
\end{equation}
How can I tell the table translator not to wrap Greeks in $$?
Thanks,

[O] Why is ox-gfm.el missing from the org-plus-contrib elpa package?
Hi I have org-plus-contrib-20141201 installed from http://orgmode.org/elpa/, which as far as I can tell is the latest version.

However, it doesn't seem to be there and it is not mentioned anywhere in http://orgmode.org/elpa/build-org-pkg.txt Is this deliberate?

[O] BUG in reference by ID to remote table (was Re: org babel question: reference tables in remote file)
There is an apparent bug when using the ID property to refer to cells in remote tables, which is currently the only way to refer to a table in an external file. This is illustrated in the attached org file. In brief, the bug is triggered by any ID that contains a sequence matching the regexp -[A-Z]+[0-9]+-, which org wants to interpret as a spreadsheet-style cell reference. Also, it would be more user friendly if CUSTOM_ID properties could also be used in this way. Would that be easy to implement?

This looks like a useful approach

Specifically I find that the name of the receiving function

seems to have none
The template is not strictly necessary - you can just add the required
lines by hand to your C source file.
I think that orgtbl-to-generic should be able to do what you want out of
the box. Maybe the attached example (orgtbl-test.c) might help you. The
idea is that you edit the org table at the top, then C-u C-u C-c C-c will
update all the formulae in the table and install the results in your C
source code at the bottom. This is not quite what you originally asked
for, since you have two copies of the data in the file and you have to
remember to only edit the version in the org table. But it is pretty
close.

Re: [O] Wishlist: LaTeX export: automatically append backslash to . unless at end of sentence
Hi András 2011/8/19 András Major andras.g.ma...@gmail.com: There is always a longer space between sentences than after a . that doesn't mark the end of a sentence This could easily be turned off with the use of a single \frenchspacing in the preamble (or in the document; you may switch between the two in the document as often as you like; e.g. \frenchspacing is active starting from the point TeX reads the macro until it is set back to \nonfrenchspacing). I'm fully aware of that, but that also messes up the spacing between sentences. My proposed solution should be robust enough to be more-or-less foolproof yet produce nice-looking output. What is nice-looking is a matter of personal taste. Personally, I tend to prefer everything close-set, as with \frenchspacing, although that is mainly because it is very easy to screw up with LaTeX's default spacing, and then things look terrible. There is an interesting discussion at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_sentence_spacing If you _do_ want to keep the wider inter-sentence spacing, then you also need to worry about sentences that end with upper-case letters. For instance, in LaTeX you should write: The paper by A. Major et~al.\ was discussed by the General Assembly of the UN\@. Without the \@ LaTeX would not recognize the period following UN to be sentence-ending. Note that there is no need to do anything special after the A. If you are going to go this way, I think it should be optional. Not everyone uses double spaces between sentences in their ascii text.

Maybe you could have a function called something like org-ghi-make-heading-a-comment that would work in a similar way to org-ghi-make-todo-an-issue.

Hello from org-babel!

image foo.png.
However, if I change the filename to foo.pdf then it no longer works.
An intermediate .tex file is produced that contains the line
\usepackage[AUTO]{inputenc}
which causes latex to fail. Presumably, the string AUTO should have
been expanded to something, but it wasn't.

[Orgmode] Two bugs in org-indent (plus a fix to correct one of them)
Hi all I have recently started using org-indent (together with word-wrap) for new org files. In general, I love it. But there are a couple of small problems: 1. If one sets org-indent-indentation-per-level to any value other than the default of 2, then the indentation of lines following a heading is not correct. I seem to have managed to fix this by changing line 231 of org-indent.el from n (* (or level 0) org-indent-indentation-per-level to n (+ 2 (* (1- (or level 0)) org-indent-indentation-per-level) Tested with org-indent-indentation-per-level = 0, 1, 2, and 3. 2. org-indent fails to play nicely with org-inlinetask in two ways i) It destroys the special fontification of the inline task's leading stars, even if org-indent-mode-turns-on-hiding-stars is set to nil ii) Any text after an inline task's END statement is soft-indented as though it were part of the inline task, whereas the indentation should ideally return to what it was before the inline task. Of course, this is also a problem when org-indent is turned off, if you try to automatically hard-indent using TAB. However, in that case you can adjust by hand the indentation of the first line after the inline task, and then all the following lines will indent correctly. With org-indent the problem is much worse since there is no way of adjusting the soft indents by hand. Cheers Will P.S. Has anyone successfully converted a pre-existing org file to a form suitable for use with org-indent? By which I mean that the pre-existing file was written with hard line breaks and hard indents. The task is not trivial since one needs to remove the hard indents due to the nesting of the org headings, but to leave alone the hard indents due to the nesting of plain lists. -- Dr William Henney, Centro de Radioastronomía y Astrofísica, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Campus Morelia ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] A table formula bug: incremental column fill with negative values
Hi all The following is using today's git trunk of org-mode with emacs 23.1.94.1 (aquamacs 2.0preview5) Consider the following table | -8 | || || || #+TBLFM: $...@-1 - 1::@1$1=-8 Evaluate formulas once (C-u C-c *): | -8 | | -9 | || | -1 | Evaluate formulas again (C-u C-c *): | -8 | | -9 | || || What I expected: | -8 | | -9 | | -10 | | -11 | The problem always seems to start at -10. When I turn on table debugging, it first calculates the -10 value correctly, but then fails to recognise the -10 cell as a number when calculating the next row, using 0 instead, which results in -1. This is because during the intermediate formatting of the cell the minus sign in -10 abuts the column separator: |-10 |, and the |- part is then interpreted as the beginning of an hline. Any possibility of a fix? Just prepending a space to all calculated negative numbers might be enough.

Re: [Orgmode] Org Mode spreadsheet SUMIF
Hi Jeff On Mon, Mar 8, 2010 at 6:54 AM, Jeff Kowalczyk j...@yahoo.com wrote: What is the Org Mode spreadsheet formula idiom for a SUMIF function? The objective is to add up the numeric values for rows matching a tag column: | 2010-03-01 | 12.2 | foo | | 2010-03-02 | 11.5 | foo | | 2010-03-02 | 12.6 | bar | | 2010-03-03 | 10.2 | foo | Need a total for foo: 33.9, and bar: 12.6, etc. This is perhaps not the most elegant solution, but it does work. | date | values | tag | foo values | bar values | |++-++| | 2010-03-01 | 12.2 | foo | 12.2 | 0 | | 2010-03-02 | 11.5 | foo | 11.5 | 0 | | 2010-03-02 | 12.6 | bar | 0 | 12.6 | | 2010-03-03 | 10.2 | foo | 10.2 | 0 | |++-++| ||| | 33.9 | 12.6 | #+TBLFM: $4='(if (string-equal $3 foo) $2 0);L::$5='(if (string-equal $3 bar) $2 0);L::@6$4=vsum(@i...@ii)::@6$5=vsum(@i...@ii) The idea is to make an extra column containing only the values with a certain tag, and then sum that. It has the advantage that there is a natural place in the table to put each conditional sum. You could probably avoid the need for the extra columns if you recoded the summation using an elisp formula instead of a calc formula. As far as I know, you can't do string comparisons inside a calc formula.

It doesn't have anything in it at the moment, because I stupidly put my own reqall rss url in one of the versions for testing purposes, so its in the version history. I also have been hacking on Ian's python script - I hope you don't mind! I changed it to support Ta-da lists (tadalist.com) rather than reqall. In my opinion, ta-da list is a much simpler and has a nice clean interface. It has the disadvantage that it doesn't have an accompanying iPhone/Touch app that works offline, although it does have a beautiful ipod-optimized web interface. And it doesn't support bling such as voice memos, but then reqall doesn't support voice memos on the Touch either, even if you have an external mic :( Anyway, I am attaching it (sync-tadalist.py) in case anyone finds it useful. In particular, it has a few changes that Ian might want to fold back into his version. For instance, it solves the private URL problem by reading it from an external dot file. Also, the original was repeatedly parsing the org file inside the loop over feed entries. This is unnecessary, so I have moved it outside. I guess that ideally we want a webservice that 1. Allows adding tasks etc via a mobile device, preferably with offline capabilities and syncing 2. Exports RSS feeds of tasks so that org-mode can grab them 3. Exports an API that would let org-mode write information back to the service, e.g., marking a task as done Does anyone know of a service that supports all 3?

The worg site looks fine to me in Safari with big fonts - the biggest size I can get is about 48 pt. I am sending you a screenshot off-list.

I've run into a couple more minor problems that might be worth looking into if you have the time. Writing plot to file Two issues here: 1. The suffix of the output file must exactly match the name of a gnuplot terminal type. Thus file:foo.jpeg works, but file:foo.jpg doesn't. Similarly, one needs to use .postscript instead of .ps. 2. Some terminals seem to work, but some don't (there is no error message and the ouput file is created, but it is empty): - Works :: jpeg, png, svg, postscript, mp - Fails :: pdf (OK, this seems to be the only one - weird) Non-ascii characters in strings These tend not to work. However, the results vary according to the output terminal in use, so I suspect that this may be due to bugs in gnuplot. My version is : G N U P L O T: : Version 4.2 patchlevel 3 : last modified Mar 2008 : System: Darwin 9.4.0 One strange thing is that, even if the .org file is utf8, the graphics file seems to get written as latin-1.

The entities in org-html-entities work fine for me as long as followed by a

Maybe someone will correct me, but it looks to me like there is no
provision in the code for delimiting these entities.
In the function org-html-do-expand in org-exp.el, if you change the
line 3788 (in org 6.06b):
(while (setq start (string-match \\([a-zA-Z]+\\) s start))
to
(while (setq start (string-match \\([a-zA-Z]+\\)\\(\\{\\}\\)? s start))
then you can use an empty pair of braces {} to end the entities (as
in LaTeX macros). With that change, then \Aacute{}stor will produce
Aacute;stor. I haven't tested this much, so I don't know if it has
unwanted side effects elsewhere.
I would also echo Sebastian's suggestion that you may be better off
just directly entering the non-ascii character in the .org file. This
usually works fine for export to HTML and means taht your org files
are much more readable. You can either use your operating system's way
of entering special characters (which in most cases is pretty clunky)
or emacs' own input methods (which are very nice). You can turn one of
these on with C-u C-\ - hit TAB to get a list to choose from. There
are lots of language-specific ones, and also general ones like tex and
sgml. For instance, with the sgml input method, you type Aacute; to
get Á, or with the spanish-prefix input method you would type 'A

I'd like to be able have something at the top, but it should not be required. But it causes problems to allow the same marker to be used at the start and end. For instance, consider the following: - - item one - item two - - point is on this line When I hit TAB, how is org to know whether the - is supposed to start a new sublist (and so should be indented 3 spaces) or is meant to end the preceding list (and so should not be indented)? That is why I proposed that IF we are to have both start and end markers, THEN they need to be distinct. However, I now think that it would be better to just have end markers. Personally, I would prefer -/ for the XMLish feel. My objections to - are 1. It is hard to remember (was it 5 dashes or 4?) 2. It is a pain to type when you have the tex input method turned on 3. It conflicts with existing usage (sec 12.6.5 of the manual) * A line consisting of only dashes, and at least 5 of them, will be exported as a horizontal line (`hr/' in HTML). Really, the terminator should not be required unless you need it to tell org to end the list, so we don't break current files. Agreed.

This works great for sharing my ToDo list and other documents with other people. And maybe this isn't such a great idea after all. After I've saved my document and auto-exported I can't undo things anymore... Time to look at org-publish... I have been using org-publish a lot lately and it works pretty well. One thing that you might want to consider is to publish to a directory on your local disk and then use an external utility (e.g., your script) to synchronize with the web server. The problem I have found with directly setting :publishing-directory to a remote machine in org-publish-project-alist is that when there are several files the publishing process becomes very slow (several minutes) and emacs completely locks up for that time :( Perhaps Bastien has some advice on how this can be improved. I think the problem is with tramp rather than org-mode. I currently work around the problem by publishing to a local directory and then using make and rsync to synchronize with the web server.

Re: [Orgmode] hotkeys for org in OS X (WAS gnome)
Hi list On Dec 22, 2007 12:00 PM, Rustom Mody [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I guess that there are -- broadly speaking -- 3 ways of handling this: 1. A programmable window manager 2. Generating arbitrary sequence of events by stuffing the corresponding keys into the window manager using (something like) xrecord 3. Using emacs' own clientserver setup ie emacsclient I have as of now opted for the 3rd option. My setup is as follows: .emacs has the following: (server-start) (defun myserver () (raise-frame) (make-frame-visible) (remember)) Inspired by Rustom's post, I have experimented with doing a similar thing for OS X, using applescript. The following seems to work OK. - begin script - tell application Aquamacs Emacs activate delay 1 tell application System Events tell process Emacs tell window 1 key code 53 keystroke : keystroke (myfunc) keystroke return end tell end tell end tell end tell end script This script can be bound to a hotkey using QuickSilver, or similar. Note that this doesn't use emacsclient, so it is an example of Rustom's 1st option. It is heavily indebted to a similar script that Bill Clementson posted on his blog (http://bc.tech.coop/blog/041219.html) The function myfunc does not need to contain the raise-frame and make-frame-visible commands. The command delay 1 is there to work around a bug in the virtual desktop software that I use. If emacs is running on a different desktop, then it receives a switch-frame command just after it is raised. Without the delay, the switch-frame can show up in the middle of the M-: (myfunc) sequence, which breaks things. Happy Xmas to all you org-ers!

Hi Tassilo On 11/14/07, Tassilo Horn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Wes Nakamura [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hi Wes, On XEmacs I like being able to have a default variable width font in the org-mode buffer but still have the calendar, etc, come up in a monospace font in a different buffer in the same frame. I haven't been able to do this in Emacs since I believe fonts are not buffer local but applied to a frame. That's wrong. You can mix as many proportional and variable width faces in one buffer as you whish. For example you could use big variable width fonts for org headlines and small proportional fonts for the normal content. Simply set point on the face you want to change and hit `M-x customize-face RET'. No. I think you are missing Wes' point. Of course you can set different fonts for different faces, but that does not help with the particular issue that Wes mentions. The calendar uses the default face, as does org-mode for normal text. Therefore, you can't change one without screwing up the other. If XEmacs allows the font associated with a particular face to be buffer-local, then that is a big improvement. A work-around for GNU Emacs would be for org to use define an org-default face that inherits from default but can be changed independently. Is this feasible, Carsten? I would appreciate that feature too. The main reason I don't use XEmacs any more is that there is no version for OS X that is as nice as Aquamacs...

I don't use Pete's script, but I do essentially the same thing and it doesn't work BUT, I think I have now found the culprit... It is all the fault of fink (for the non Mac users, fink is a package manager and repo for OS X, a bit like yum or apt, except a lot less useful) At some point I had added the following line to my ~/.profile test -r /sw/bin/init.sh . /sw/bin/init.sh and that file, unbeknownst to me had been setting the INFOPATH environment variable. This means that Info-directory-list gets initialised from INFOPATH and that Info-default-directory-list is completely ignored :( So, the answer seems to be to unset INFOPATH in the shell and to merge the fink info directories into my Info-default-directory-list At least, I assume this will work. I don't want to restart my emacs at the moment since I would lose too much context, but I will test it out when I next have a quiet time.

[Orgmode] apparent bug in org-insert-link with active region
Hi list If I call org-insert-link with the region active, then the region content is instantly deleted while I am prompted for the link. This is rather disconcerting, but for most link types the region content magically reappears as the default value of the description. However, for file: links the default value of the description becomes the link itself, and the previous content of the region is lost (as far as I can see). Is this intended?

Yes, maybe the region shouldn't be deleted before the link is actually inserted. However, for file: links the default value of the description becomes the link itself, and the previous content of the region is lost (as far as I can see). Is this intended? For me, the default value for the description is *always* the active region, this one being a simple string or a file link. So I expect the default value of the description itself being the link itself, since it equals the active region... or did I miss something? Yes, I think you are... I wasn't saying that the active region was of the form file:something, but rather that the link target was of that form. What happens for me is the following (when I do org-insert-link with the region active) 1. The region is deleted in the org buffer 2. I am shown the Link: prompt in the mini-buffer 3. I type in the link (or use arrows or return to grab a stored link) 4. I am shown the Description: prompt in the mini-buffer 5a. If the link I entered in step 3 was something like http://foo.org;, then all is well - the deleted region from step 1 appears as the default description. 5b. However, if the link I inserted in step 3 was something like file:/etc/whatever, then I no longer get the deleted region as the default description. Instead, I just get file:/etc/whatever I hope this is clearer. I thought perhaps the problem was with my personal set-up, so I tried it with emacs -Q -q -l minimal-org.el, where the file minimal-org.el is given below. I still see the problem (that is, behaviour 5b instead of 5a) whenever the link is of the form file:/path/to/myfile I have also found another apparent bug. When I do C-u C-c C-l, then (as described in the docs) I get prompted for a filename with path completion. However, this time the default description is blank (whether or not the region was active).
