Re: [O] LaTex export questions
Hi Alan, I downloaded the book and went through it--thank you for putting that together! It was a valuable overview. Nonetheless, some confusions persist for me since I'm using emacs org-mode and not LyX. Should I be putting LaTeX markup into my org-mode doc, for instance, for formatting the title page, c? Also, right now when I do the org to latex to pdf export, I'm given a table of contents, and I don't want one. I'm still perplexed about where defaults like that are kept.

If that is so, then perhaps what is needed is a latex style file that formats prose correctly for the literary world.

Nick Full disclosure: I'm a beginning emacs user, and I know nothing about LaTex at all! I'm not producing a book per se, but a manuscript that will be printed on 8.5 x 11 pages and read by my agent or a publisher. The conventions are simple, but thus far I haven't been able to understand much of what I'm reading in the customize menu for org-mode. Until now I've done this formatting with MS Word or Libre Office. I dislike those programs, but I know how to use them. Simplest has been to take my raw org-mode txt files and convert them manually. It's a tedious last step before sending downstream, which I'd love to replace, and I've seen some beautiful LaTex examples online, so I know it's possible ... Literary format redux: + 12 point text + Title page has title and author name, centered both horizontally and vertically. Contact info for agent is in the bottom left, single spaced. + Remaining pages are double-spaced + Page numbers are centered at the bottom of the page (but no page number on title page) + Each page has a right-justified header in the format LASTNAME/TITLE That's it. I guess I'm wondering now--should I be learning more about org-mode, or more about LaTex? Thank you very much for taking the time to read all of this. -Steven

[O] [FR] Archive subtree with parent structure
org-archive-subtree archives a subtree. * A ** AA *** AAA ** AB *** ABA Archiving AA will remove the subtree from the original file and create it like that in archive target: * AA ** AAA What I want (wish for) is to create it like that in the archive target: * A ** AA *** AAA If I also archive AB after that, it gets inserted in the structure which is now identical to the structure we started with. Use case: I tend to archive small pieces of a project's subtree long before I'm ready to archive the entire project. This way I build (want to build) an archived mirror of the project's subtree bit by bit. Thanks a lot to the org-mode developers.

I do not think this is possible by merely defining the STARTUP directive. You will probably need some custom elisp to accomplish this.

[O] New ~ agenda keybinding to filter by effort
Hi all, from the current HEAD of the master branch (aa86e4bc), you can use _ in agendas to filter by effort. This used to be integrated to the tag filter, but filters interaction was then too complex. You can also use `org-agenda-effort-filter-preset' to set the filter to an initial value in your agenda custom commands. If you want to list only entries with a max effort of 20 minutes : M-x org-agenda t _ 3;; corresponding to the 0:20 effort value Also note that I enhanced the prompt for `org-agenda-limit-entries' (bound to ~ in agenda buffers) which is perhaps not known enough. So if you want to list only entries with a max effort of 20 minutes within agenda entries which sum up to three hours of work: M-x org-agenda t _ 3;; corresponding to the 0:20 effort value ~ E 180 RET Let me know if it works as expected for you. -- Bastien

The begin/end src lines are just that, markers to show where the org
source starts and end. What you have formatted is a source code
listing, not the source code.
1. Create a new org mode buffer.
2. Copy the contents WITHIN the begin/end src block to the buffer.
3. Remove the leading commas (,).
4. With your cursor on the #+OPTION line type [C-c C-c].
5. Generate the html output.

It does - this works fine for me:
--8---cut here---start-8---

This is a super^{script} and this is a sub_{script}.

[O] [bug?][ox-beamer] hyperref crashes when options are specified
Hi,
If you give hyperref options when exporting to Beamer it will
typically crash.
I load hyperref as follows to make it compatible with exotic
headlines in XeLaTeX:
(setq org-latex-default-packages-alist
'(( iftex nil)
( fixltx2e nil)
(AUTO inputenc t)
(T1 fontenc t)
(AUTO babel nil)
( scrpage2 nil)
( graphicx t)
( amsmath t)
( amssymb t)
( booktabs t)
( marvosym t)
( microtype nil)
( slantsc nil)
(unicode, psdextra,hidelinks hyperref nil)))
Because Beamer loads hyperref automatically this will crash. The
correct way to load it is through the document class options, e.g.
\documentclass[hyperref={unicode, psdextra,hidelinks}]{beamer}
Should ox-beamer automatically move the options in this case?
Unfortunately, it seems that I cannot directly modify the latex
package alist via a parse tree filter, which would have been the
easiest.
Alternatively, I could write a LaTeX hack using \@ifclassloaded or
using the final filter to move things around before compilation.
Thanks,

Re: [O] Autoopen TODOs AND checkboxes?
Hi Sharon, Sharon Kimble boudic...@skimble.plus.com writes: How can I get it to just show all the TODOs and all of the checkboxes please? TODOs and checkboxs lists live in different worlds. Although you can make checkbox lists look like TODOs by using (setq org-cycle-include-plain-lists t), checkbox lists will always be very different, because... they belong to a subtree, while TODOs don't always belong to one. opening a checkbox list at point has a clear meaning, and so does opening all subtrees from the buffer -- but what would mean opening all checkbox lists from the buffer? Should it open the subtree the list is part of too? Anyway, the easy way is to not use both for similar purpose.

You will need to add a class to org-latex-classes. You should read the
documentation for the variable with C-h v org-latex-classes RET.
You can try customizing this variable but I find the customize interface
to it somewhat confusing, so I prefer to do it by hand - you need to add
something like this to the end of your initialization file (you probably
just need chapters):
--8---cut here---start-8---
(setq sa/sffms-latex-class '(novel \\documentclass{sffms}
(\\chapter{%s} . \\chapter*{%s})
(\\section{%s} . \\section*{%s})
(\\subsection{%s} . \\subsection*{%s})
(\\subsubsection{%s} . \\subsubsection*{%s})))
(eval-after-load ox-latex
'(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes sa/sffms-latex-class))
--8---cut here---end---8---
Then your org file should look like this:
--8---cut here---start-8---
#+LATEX_CLASS: novel
#+TITLE: Fahrenheit 451
#+AUTHOR: Ray Bradbury
#+OPTIONS: toc:nil
* The Hearth and the Salamander
It was a pleasure to burn.
It was a special pleasure to see things eaten, blackened
and /changed/.
--8---cut here---end---8---
Note that the latex class is known as novel to org because of
the way I defined sa/sffms-latex-class. You could call it whatever
you want, by changing the two instances of novel.
That's a beginning but you will probably have to modify some other
things. Just put them in a style file, say misc.sty:
--8---cut here---start-8---
\runningtitle{Fahrenheit 451}
\authorname{Ray Bradbury}
--8---cut here---end---8---
plus any other settings from the sfmms documentation you think are
necessary, and add a line to your .org file:
--8---cut here---start-8---
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{misc}
--8---cut here---end---8---
to pick them up. That should get you some way towards your goal.

Rick,
Your google search to find the sffms style package seems like it
could
be the perfect answer to my quandary. I'm trying now to get my head
around acquiring it. I don't have a great track record with installing
things, and try to use package management systems when I can.
Sffms is located on CTAN (which I'm learning about as I write
this!). I'm running Ubuntu, and believe I have TexLive installed, but
have never tried its package management system.
What's a good way to proceed here?
You can search for packages containing a file:
$ dpkg -S sffms.cls
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/sffms/sffms.cls
So you need to install texlive-latex-extra:
# apt-get install texlive-latex-extra
You'll probably need to be root for that (or use the graphical thingie
that will ask for your password).
Nick
That dpkg search is a great thing to know about! So I just went through
the install process, and it turns out I already have the files in
question. I just haven't gotten them working yet. The website for sffms
says I need to put the following into my doc:
\documentclass{sffms}
\author{Lois McMaster Bujold}
\title{Komarr}
\begin{document}
Your story goes here.
\end{document}
Which seems encouragingly simple, but I'm a little confused about using
this LaTex markup in the context of an org document. Org has its own
markup to pass to latex for these I think, like #+AUTHOR. Is there
a similar one for \documentclass ?
You will need to add a class to org-latex-classes. You should read the
documentation for the variable with C-h v org-latex-classes RET.
You can try customizing this variable but I find the customize interface
to it somewhat confusing, so I prefer to do it by hand - you need to add
something like this to the end of your initialization file (you probably
just need chapters):
(setq sa/sffms-latex-class '(novel \\documentclass{sffms}
(\\chapter{%s} . \\chapter*{%s})
(\\section{%s} . \\section*{%s})
(\\subsection{%s} . \\subsection*{%s})
(\\subsubsection{%s} . \\subsubsection*{%s})))
(eval-after-load ox-latex
'(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes sa/sffms-latex-class))
Then your org file should look like this:
#+LATEX_CLASS: novel
#+TITLE: Fahrenheit 451
#+AUTHOR: Ray Bradbury
#+OPTIONS: toc:nil
* The Hearth and the Salamander
It was a pleasure to burn.
It was a special pleasure to see things eaten, blackened
and /changed/.
Note that the latex class is known as novel to org because of
the way I defined sa/sffms-latex-class. You could call it whatever
you want, by changing the two instances of novel.
That's a beginning but you will probably have to modify some other
things. Just put them in a style file, say misc.sty:
\runningtitle{Fahrenheit 451}
\authorname{Ray Bradbury}
plus any other settings from the sfmms documentation you think are
necessary, and add a line to your .org file:
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{misc}
to pick them up. That should get you some way towards your goal.

Hi Nick,
Sorry to call you Rick earlier; I just noticed I did that.
So, this has been incredibly helpful. I've just processed an org file
into a pdf that's about 93% totally correct for formatting. Furthermore,
it looks great; way better than the output I typically get from Word or
LibreOffice. And way, /way/ easier to achieve.
Thanks so much for your help here, and everyone else on this thread,
too! I'm sure I'll have questions further on but I'm going to call this
a success for today and go mix a martini.
Best!
Steven
PS Strangely, I just read Fahrenheit 451 last week. Odd coincidence

Re: [O] org-contacts development
Michael Strey mst...@strey.biz writes: Hi Michael, Reading http://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-syntax.html#Node_Properties I just realised that my clumsy property keys are against the rules since they are containing whitespace characters. Nevertheless I still like the idea of having a Type, a number and a Value for every property that can occur multiple. Thus the properties can be easily mapped to the VCard scheme as well as to any other scheme. Thus, what I would like to propose is the following scheme: #+BEGIN_SRC org :PROPERTIES: :Contact_Type: individual or organisation :Organization_1_Type: company :Organization_1_Name: The company name :Organization_1_Department: department, business unit, division :Organization_1_Title: job title of an individual :FN: The full name :GivenName: :FamilyName: :Name_Prefix: :Name_Suffix: :Nickname: :Email_1_Type: Work :Email_1_Value: n...@company.fr :Address_1_Type: Work :Address_1_Street: The street can contain multiple lines \\ second line :Address_1_Box: Postal box :Address_1_Extension: other extensions that can occur in addresses :Address_1_City: The city :Address_1_Region: Region, federal state etc. :Address_1_Code: 12100 :Address_1_Country: France :Phone_1_Type: Work :Phone_1_Value: +33 565 623740 :Phone_2_Type: Fax :Phone_2_Value: +33 565 623070 :Website_1_Type: Work :Website_1_Value: http://www.domain.fr :Birthday: :Language: en :Salutation: :END: #+END_SRC Hmm, I kinda like this. It seems a bit verbose but it's better than having multiple values per properties (IMHO). Though, if we adopt this scheme, we would need to add some helper bindings/functions so that we don't have to fill this by hands. Other user defined properties can be added and mapped to the appropriate user defined keys during export. I'm not sure to understand what you mean. Could you give more details and maybe an example? [snip] Please note that org-collector tries to convert property values from strings into numbers if possible. For postal codes with leading Zeros this can lead to unexpected results. I did not find any other way to solve this problem than to add a national code like in the following example :Address_1_Code: 01169 would lead to 1169 in the propview table. so I replaced it with :Address_1_Code: DE-01169 What is `org-collector' and when does it happen? I've done a quick test and the 0 appears in `org-contacts-db'. Best, -- Daimrod/Greg
[O] move org line to next superior level
Hi everyone, is there a way to move a specific org mode item across its superior level via shortcut? In the following example I'd like to move the line via shortcut below the '' line. * aaa ** TODO * bbb ** TODO As addon it would be cool to flag this moved line with e.g. moved on 2014-05-29 What I trying to accomplish here is to create a kind of electronic version of 43folders. When I am not able to finish a task on say Monday, I'd like to be able to move it (or alternatively copy it [while setting the original entry's status to postponed]) to the next day. Uwe

[O] Bug: Markdown export not creating proper TOC links [8.2.6 (8.2.6-dist @ /home/marko/.emacs.d/org-8.2.6/lisp/)]
Greetings all,
I have an issue with Markdown and I guess it is a bug.
If I have a simple Org file with the following contents:
* Heading 1
** Heading 1.1
- something
* Heading 2
- something else
and run M-x org-export-dispatch m m, thus making a Markdown export to a
file, the resulting file looks like this:
div id=table-of-contents
h2Table of Contents/h2
div id=text-table-of-contents
ul
lia href=#sec-11. Heading 1/a
ul
lia href=#sec-1-11.1. Heading 1.1/a/li
/ul
/li
lia href=#sec-22. Heading 2/a/li
/ul
/div
/div
# Heading 1
## Heading 1.1
- something
# Heading 2
- something else
Shouldn't there be the #sec-1 anchor somewhere next to Heading 1 and
similarly for the other anchors? Obviously, when the md file gets
displayed in a web browser, clicking on 1. Heading 1 in the table of
contents has no effect. I expect it to jump to the part of page
corresponding to Heading 1.
