I don't know the answer to your question, but when I came across the
same problem, I used a makefile-like solution because I felt that the
building process was becoming sufficiently complicated to warrant using
a specialised tool. If you are comfortable with CMake already it may
be
worth a look. Have a look for UseLatex.cmake.
Basically you get emacs to export the .tex file from the .org file:
add_custom_command(
OUTPUT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/mypaper.tex
COMMAND emacs --batch
--visit=${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/mypaper.org
--load=/home/me/myfuncs.el
--funcall org-export-as-latex-batch
DEPENDS orgfile
COMMENT Exporting orgmode file to LaTeX using emacs
)
And then bibtex and nomenclature are asked to do their stuff, and a pdf
is produced, with something like this directive:
add_latex_document( mypaper.tex
INPUTS tex/bibliography.tex
texlib/mystyle.sty
BIBFILES texlib/mylibrary.bib
DEFAULT_PDF
USE_NOMENCL
)
I also get it to generate all my R plots. Other advantages are that
you
get an out-of-source build that is isolated (to some extent) in its own
directory. And I think it is easier to diagnose the problems when
things go wrong, better than staring at an elisp backtrace. Now if org
would write my CMakeList.txt for me, that would be a fine thing.

To have makeindex run, try evaluating the following elisp:
(setq org-latex-to-pdf-process
'(pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode %b
bibtex %b
makeindex %b.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o %b.nls
pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode %b
pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode %b))
Alternatively, you can customize the variable org-latex-to-pdf-process
as Nick suggests, to accomplish the same thing. Use the following
command:
M-x customize-variable org-latex-to-pdf-process
More documentation is available through customize, and there is lots
of great information available here:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html
Hope this helps,
Andrew

Re: [O] org-elements: list in drawer

Also, `org-element-at-point' doesn't parse contents, so there's no reason that there would be the item and the paragraph. Obviously, `org-element-at-point' output depends on the position of point.

Re: [O] org-capture: keeping window visible during date entry
Hi Christoph, Christoph Groth c...@falma.de writes: I would say that a proper solution would be to reserve delete-other-windows for interactive use and to replace it by something more sensible which ensures that a given window is well visible but tries to preserve the visibility and arrangement other windows if possible. That hypothetical function could be given the minimum required height for the current window. Does anyone know of such functionality already existing anywhere in the emacs world? There is `maximize-window'. If you want to work on a patch that uses `maximize-window' in places where you think it should replace `delete-other-windows', please do. But I think ̀delete-other-windows' is fine in most cases. If not, I believe it would be useful to think of something like this. Given current screen sizes, it would be good to replace most uses of delete-other-windows by something more gentle. But this is a topic for the general emacs mailing list. Yep, why not.

Re: [O] Templates for cloning
The comment about swapping lines and getting a nicer version was intended for the orgmode devs, just in case they want an easy way to support templates with minimal changes to the source code. My solution also works. Just copy the elisp definitions for org-p and org-g into your .emacs file. Then define a new template and you're set. In the template: - %(org-p varname) will prompt you for a value that is then stored as 'varname'. - %(org-g varname) will then insert the text you entered at the prompt.
