I would appreciate as much feedback and criticism as possible. First of all, make sure someone can co-mentor this project. I'm willing to mentor this (as the current maintainer it makes sense, especially for people judging the project from the outside), but having Carsten as a co-mentor would be a great win. Make sure Carsten (cc'ed) is okay. I will send him a personal (private) request. Carsten, being a co-mentor involves mainly three things: 1. registering on google-melange.com I have registered as a mentor, username cdominik. I have not yet found how to do: 2. from there, requesting to be a mentor for the GNU project 3. during the project, help the student and have IRC/phone meetings, at least when I'm not here (I expect to be off for 2-3 weeks this summer, I will tell when ASAP) Yes. I am a phone/skype guy, not an irc guy. - Carsten I used the generic GNU Project student application template, which can be found here http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/google/gsoc2012/gnu. 1. First things thing: you should rewrite the summary section to remove the I believe and other informal writing from Carsten's prose. Make it yours, make it a real summary. I found the GNU Application template confusing, and was not sure if the summary was supposed to be written by me, or copied from the ideas page (to clarify what project idea I was referring to). I followed your advice and wrote my own project summary, since that seems like the better idea. 2. Refer to org-element.el when you mention the Data representation. org-element.el will be key in representing data and diffs between data (at any level.) 3. Add a documentation section, explaining what doc you will write and how you you will write/host it (worg is fine.) Thanks for the pointers. I've incorporated your advice into the proposal. I have some specific questions: 1. There is no implementation details or decisions in my application, just a basic plan of what needs to be done. Should I start researching implementation details for my application? You can look at org-element.el for the data representation. 2. I would like to post my application on the community site Worg.

A menu entry for each language would be nice - also show which ones are available. Not sure how effectual this would be in a main menu.

This would obviously only (?) work for header arguments in the #+begin_src line, bt would be very useful: when I press tab (or another key like tag completion) the possible header arguments are auto-expanded. Next step: auto complete for the options for the specific header argument. But a menue would also be nice. I guess that together with the possibility to call this menu by keyboard strokes or alternatively show the same infos in the minibuffer would be a great win for babel and it would make many questions here on the list unnecessary. Ups - similar to what I described above... Furthermore, any change or extension in the syntax for a certain language would be directly reflected to the end-user. E.g., If I suddenly see the menu entry :exports 3dprint, I would be curious and check it out on worg and the manual ;) True - one huge plus for org babel are the header arguments - and it is easy to stay with the ones one knows and ignore / forget new ones although they might be very useful.

Hi Bastien, Bastien wrote: thanks for the patch. I wonder if we should trigger an error instead -- why a message? Because it's not an error... When a reference (I guess it always must be an ID, then) is not found locally, Org will search for it in external known files. The problem is you see hundreds of messages Finding ID location..., and you don't know which reference Org is trying to find... When you have multiple tables, with multiple references, this is a nightmare to find which was is wrong. Just use `TBLNAME' instead of `tblname' for the referenced table (or the inverse, if you apply the patch you sent me a couple of days ago), and you'll understand that it's good to know what Org is searching for.

Re: [O] ATTR_HTML for a clickable image, howto?
Hi,

I understand what you mean by saying it does not make sense with the
current mechanics. Yet, from a user perspective, it surely makes sense
hoping that Org offers a way for adding attributes to either part of a
link, as links are kind of indivisible (so far that I know).
On reflection, there might be a case for making the exporter smart
enough not to place #+ATTR_HTML attributes such as ALT, WIDTH and
HEIGHT (or even ALIGN, though see below) in the A element, where
they have no place, but instead pass them through to the clickable
image, where they obviously belong.
I suggest you fix your css instead.
My knowledge of CSS is rudimentary. I'm not aware that CSS (the version
widely available, not the incoming one) has enough matching capabilities
to spot wrong HTML, remove attributes on some elements and add them on
other elements. Is that really possible? Should I dive and study CSS
more? Without matching, CSS would not help much, as the correction is
needed in three dozen cases at most, and not blindly for all images.
No, CSS doesn't move attributes around.
But the ALIGN attribute has long been deprecated in favor of CSS.
All the CSS needed to right-align all images that are children of a
link anchor is:
a img {float: right;}
(There are other, more complex ways to control horizontal alignment in
CSS.)
To set this on a per-document basis in Org, use:
#+STYLE: stylea img {float: right;}/style
If you need more fine-grained control, you could use e.g.:
a.rightaligned img {float: right;}
where rightaligned is an arbitrary name, you could call the class
alignright or right or rt or whatever.
Then you could set the rightaligned class on all links you want
right-aligned:
#+ATTR_HTML: class=rightaligned
[[./targetimage.png][./linkimage.png]]
Note that it's still the A element that gets the class. In this
case, the CSS applies to all IMG child elements of A
CLASS=rightaligned elements.
For this particular purpose, though, that CSS may be overkill; looks
to me like you get the same visual result by just styling A directly.
So here's the whole CSS for right-aligning any block element on which
you can set the CLASS to rightaligned with ATTR_HTML:
.rightaligned {float: right;}
I could ponder using XSL or something else to post-process the HTML
generated by Org, so circumventing the limitation. This would be adding
an unwelcome layer of complexity. I like to perceive Org as a tool
which much simplify my life! :-).
Any problem you can solve with a single line of simple CSS, you can
probably solve with a deprecated tag, several lines of complicated
XSL, and a postprocessing hook in Org to issue a shell command to an
XSLT processor... But why would you?
If you like Org for its simplicity, you will love CSS.
Yours,
Christian

Agreed. But remember we are in kind of a transition from the current

one are less pressing than trying to move to the new ones.

[O] idea, bug report template
Hi, Just read the bug report [O] Bug: Tag Completion Not Prompting for all tags. It was nicely detailed and well structured. That makes me wonder could or should org-mode use some kind of bug report generator. Hitting a keycombo would simply open a org-mode buffer filled with a template making use of all the great org features (e.g. the minimal example could be in a org-babel area to make it executable). The user fills in the details, the minimal example and C-c C-c sends it off to someone who might approve it to send it to this list. There could be a bug section on the website too simply exporting these reports to html. The new comment system would work perfectly with this. Create an Id number and a bug status tag within the org file and it would be close to an org-mode based bug report and tracking system. Torsten

[O] Automatic inter Web-site linking ?
Hi everybody. Here I am with yet another need for an Org solution. There should not be much remaining! I'm sure they *all* say that... :-) I have a set of Org files with links to one another, for which I publish a dozen Web sites or so (using org-publish-project-alist). Whenever a link is within the same file, or a neighbouring file in the same directory (file:*.org style), links are properly converted to HTML references. When the links point to Org files which are a bit more away, file: is not converted to html:, understandably. So I see myself writing either file: or html: links depending on the fact I know that Org will, or will not, do the expected conversion. The problem with writing html: is, of course, that I cannot follow these links while editing. So, I wonder if the conversion capabilities could not be augmented or automated somehow, allowing me to always use file: in the Org file themselves. A while ago, for each site within org-publish-project-alist, I already added a specification line: :top-url http://SOME.WEB.SITE; as it seemingly did not break anything to do so, to save the information somewhere I could easily find it. I'd like to write some glue code to help this, maybe someone could hint me in the proper direction, or maybe suggest other avenues? I tried to read org-exp.el and org-html.el a bit, but they still are a bit too magical, I do not see how they work. Currently, here is what I would like to achieve: whenever there is a file:*.org link which is not translatable with the current algorithms, there is presumably some code somewhere, able to determine the site (from org-publish-project-alist) that would publish that referenced file. If that site is found, and if the site has a :top-url attribute, its value could provide a base to build the proper URL to translate the link. Would remain to hook the link conversion, likely within the current code in org-html.el; but as of now, I do not understand it enough to do (or at least, do cleanly). François

It takes more of a fix the symptom approach, instead speeding up agenda generation, it caches the agenda buffer itself and lets user refresh it, while also allowing for multiple agenda buffers, so that a C-c a / search buffer, does not discard your C-c a a one. My initial idea was to wrap all the scanner functions (like org-todo-list or org-tags-view), with caches, but after a day or so it was obvious that its not a a few days task. But if someone takes up task of speeding up agenda generation, IMHO the idea of re-factoring the scanning functions to avoid re-scanning .org files that had not changed, will have best chance of producing results.

All this points would show that the proposal is going to extend org-mode instead of being limited useful for only a very particular user-base. Finally, I guess it would be good to mention that this project (and org-mode in general) is not limited to a OS but attracts users of MS Windows, Mac OS and Linux.

Re: [O] ATTR_HTML for a clickable image, howto?
Christian and others, Will CSS solutions described in this thread work if you always export subtrees (not entire .org files) and never include style files? If so, how do you go about using them in Org? Is there a less awkward way than using an HTML block with a div with style=? This is awkward as you have to do it for every such block: #+HTML: div style=color: black; background-color: #f4a460 It would be great to have a generic style of some sort, specify the scoped Org elements with neat syntax (maybe like #+myblock_begin:) instead of HTML blocks, and to be able to export it for subtrees (not entire .org files!) in a completely self-contained way with no need to include any file. An example use case is Blogger, where you /could/ try to change the CSS for your template, but it is far better to have your post be entirely self-contained with all the style information you need. Maybe this question deserves its own thread? Samuel -- The Kafka Pandemic: http://thekafkapandemic.blogspot.com

It would be definitely awesome in a context menu That would be (copied from worg) [*] indicates cursor position #+NAME: factorial #+BEGIN_SRC haskell [*] :results silent :exports code :var n=0 a context menu would appear presenting all possible header arguments for haskell #+NAME: factorial #+BEGIN_SRC haskell :results [*] :exports code :var n=0 a context menu presenting all possible values for the header argument :results in haskell I guess that together with the possibility to call this menu by keyboard strokes or alternatively show the same infos in the minibuffer would be a great win for babel and it would make many questions here on the list unnecessary. Furthermore, any change or extension in the syntax for a certain language would be directly reflected to the end-user. E.g., If I suddenly see the menu entry :exports 3dprint, I would be curious and check it out on worg and the manual ;) Totti Hi, I've put together a first pass at such support for interactive header argument look up. Please evaluate this elisp code [1] in your *scratch* buffer, then in an Org-mode buffer insert a code block like the following with the point at [*], and press tab. #+begin_src R :[*] :foo #+end_src You should see an auto-completion list showing which header arguments are available and (for those with known arguments) which arguments may be specified. This includes language specific header arguments, i.e., the R code block above suggests about twice as many possible header arguments as an elisp block. Note this expand on tab after : behavior is active on #+headers: lines as well. This makes use of the `org-babel-common-header-args-w-values' variable which holds header argument names and completions, as well as the org-babel-header-arg-names:lang variables. Does this seem like a good interface? Is it missing any important functionality? Best, Footnotes: [1] ;; Add support for completing-read insertion of header arguments after : (defun org-babel-header-arg-expand () Call `org-babel-enter-header-arg-w-completion' in appropriate contexts.

[O] Agenda filter for a specific file
Hi guys, Is there a way to define an agenda filter that will search in only one of the agenda files? The reason I do that is because although I have several files added to the agenda, only one contains actionable items (gtd.org). Thanks, - Marcelo.
