I don't think it's well documented (I couldn't find a reference in the
manual) or well supported. org-capture does provide for it (see the doc
for org-capture-templates) but afaict that's the only significant use of
it - org-agend uses it for diary-related stuff and org-archive has to be
able to archive it and that's it. The (rather thin) support for it is in
org-datetree.el.

If there are use cases out there, it might be worth collecting them and
then thinking about how to support them better. If there aren't, maybe
it should be thrown out.

Re: [O] org-capture/remember in Emacs 24.4.1? (Marco Wahl)

[Benjamin Slade]

I figured it out - in updating, I had lost the cdlatex package, and
org-capture wants this for some reason, that's why it was crashing for
me.

Oddly this works on my one computer, but not my other -- doubly odd
since they're both running the same distro, the same version of Emacs,
and the same .emacs file!

Even commenting out that line doesn't change the (wrong) behaviour on my
one computer

[O] inline image size

[Doyley, Marvin M.]

Hi there,

Does anybody know how to change the size of inline images in org ?

I would like to do this using something like #+attr :with 200

thanks

[O] Support for table notes?

[Jacob Gerlach]

Hi list,

I'm having trouble with LaTeX export of a table that uses some footnotes.

It seems that export by default uses combinations of \footnotemark inside
the table and \footnotetext after the table.

This gets me in to trouble when the table is pushed to the next page - the
footnotes are left behind on the previous page.

There's a lot of discussion (here
 for
example) on the right way to do this. I'm content with just about anything
- threeparttable, for example, to produce table notes.

Are there any capabilities built in to org mode to handle footnotes in
tables differently or is this something I can only do through more direct
LaTeX tweaking?

Regards,
Jake

Patches welcome :)  but this does work $(x)$ BTW.

I guess the main function for export is
`org-element-latex-fragment-interpreter' but there's also
`org-inside-LaTeX-fragment-p'. . .

Well, org-columns takes an optional string as argument, not an integer,
so whoever does (org-columns 1) is wrong, presumably one of the functions in
your org-mode-hook.

The above (org-columns 1) form is your problem.  Have you added this to
org-mode-hook your emacs/org configuration files somewhere?  If so, you
should take it out.  Org-columns is not a minor mode, and the argument
to that function should not be a number.

Thanks for this, that was the problem entirely and solves it. Everything

My goal was to get publication quality documents out of the old
exporter, which aimed to make LaTeX copies of notes taken in Org mode.
I tried to see how much work I could off-load to LaTeX so I didn't have
to wrestle with the old exporter.

Nicolas's new exporter framework very completely solved the problems I
was having with the old exporter and I now routinely write journal
articles in Org mode, using one of the standard classes (typically
scrartcl) because it is more convenient for me than working in LaTeX.
It is my experience that reproducible research is useful, even when it
is not a goal of publication.  Because my Org mode files capture an
entire analysis, I know exactly where to go when I want to pick up some
old research.

That said, I think there is some overlap between Marcin's dream and what
I was trying to accomplish, though Marcin's knowledge of LaTeX and
programming generally appear to put him well ahead of what I brought to
the table working on org-article.

All the best,
Tom

Thanks.  A very good read.  These are arguments on the LaTeX end.  My
question was more on the orgmode end, I guess.

I do not agree with the readability but I can live (quite happily) with
using \(...\).  And maybe my perception of the readability changes over
time

puh ... it would of cause be possible to write emacs lisp to find, extract
and process the date info from the parent tree's :raw-value, but I must
admit I don't want to do it, since it is just extra work required by
un-idiomatic use of Org-mode. 

You have all the means to create a nice logical project file out-of-the
box with Org-mode, use tags, timestamps, deadlines, properties etc and
then extract selected info via the agenda. 

Otherwise you need to write custom elisp yourself or find somebody who
does it for you ...

[O] Several datetrees in one file

[Alexander Baier]

Hello,

I would like to have several datetrees in one org file. I want to have
different datetrees under different headlines. The setup I have in mind
is an address book with chronologically ordered notes for each person.

This is an example entry for one person. Each following person in that
file will have their own datetree and corresponding notes.

* John Doe
  :PROPERTIES:
  :MAIL: john@example.com
  :END:
- nice guy
** 2014
*** 2014-10 October
 2014-10-27 Monday

- notes
 2014-10-28 Tuesday
* meeting 2
Entered on <2014-10-28 Tue 00:00>
- more notes

Currently, there is no way to capture a new entry in a datetree for a
specific person. The current capture templates only allow for one
datetree per file.

Is it possible to extend this datetree functionality and let the user
specify the file and the headline under which the datetree resides?
Adapting the example from the manual, I would like to have something
along the lines of:

(file+headline+datetree "path/to/file" "headline")

or

(file+olp+datetree "path/to/file" "level 1 headline" "level2" ...)


Is this possible?

Thanks for the pointer.

Given that there are 'exceptions' already I'd like to see that last
sentence extended to 'followed by whitespace, punctuation, a closing
parenthesis or a dash'.

Especially since the \(...\) notation is particularly hard to read when
enclosed in parentheses.  For example (\(\frac{1}{2}\)) as opposed to 
($\frac{1}{2}$)

But as I said earlier, this is a minor nuisance and I am happy to resort
to \(...\) whenever necessary.

Thanks,
Andreas

Thanks Nick for your reply. This ties in with my bug report of

If the date-tree is the parent and has a timestamp, then the entries
are part of the contents of parent, and you can use this function to
map over the parents

,[ C-h f org-element-map RET ]

and then 'org-element-property' and 'org-element-put-property' to get

Okay, thanks. Since this is part of a function, I guess I should assume
the (progn... behavior above, assume `org-element-at-point' is going to
return a paragraph, and then work up from there to see if I'm in a
log-list. Is that right?

 [a] single ‘$’ characters are only recognized as math delimiters
 if the enclosed text contains at most two line breaks, is
 directly attached to the ‘$’ characters with no whitespace in

 punctuation or a dash

This is unrelated to `org-log-beginning'. Point cannot be left in an
invisible area. E.g., the same applies to 

  (forward-line 2) (point)

vs

  (progn (forward-line 2) (point))

Thanks for following that up.  I do use \(...\) when I encounter
problems with $...$ (which is a lot nicer to type and read).

I am happy with using the fall-back \(...\) every now and then.

Just for me to understand:  Is the problem the missing whitespace
around the $...$ expression?

Yes, that is the expected behavior.  Org is much pickier about when "$"
can be a math delimiter than "\( ... \)".  The reason is that "$" can
also be used as a regular symbol in Org documents; when it is, it should
be *not* be exported as a math delimiter to LaTeX, and distinguishing
non-math-delimiting from math-delimiting uses of "$" is not a trivial
matter.

Thus, when in doubt, use "\( ... \)".

There are a few problems with your bug report[fn:1].

First, you don't describe the problem or the error at all (maybe you did
in some earlier post, but please don't assume that anybody is going to
go back and search the list in order to divine your meaning).  I, for
one, have no idea what problem and error report you are talking about,
partially because I'm not keeping up with the mailing list, partially
because I'm getting old and decrepit and my memory ain't what it used to
be.

But in addition, why do you think this is an org-mode problem? Surely, gnus is
the more likely culprit, no?

[O] BUG: preview latex with split environment

[Andreas Leha]

Hi all,

I encounter a BUG with org-toggle-latex-fragment on an equation that
uses amsmath's split environment.

(Exporting of the document works fine.)


The problem is that the \begin{equation},\end{equation} get stripped of
the temporary tex file.


Here is some test doc

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#+TITLE: Test amsmath's split

* Some equation
with some split expression, e.g.
\begin{equation}
  \begin{split}
w \cdot x + b &= 1, \text{ and}\\
w \cdot x + b &= -1
  \end{split}
\end{equation}

To reproduce try to org-toggle-latex-fragment (C-c C-x C-l) on that
latex expression.

Export of this works fine.
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

which results in this /tmp/foobar.tex document (relevant parts shown):

--8<---cut here---start->8---
\begin{document}
\definecolor{fg}{rgb}{0.996109,0.996109,0.996109}
\definecolor{bg}{rgb}{0.197269,0.197269,0.197269}

\pagecolor{bg}

{\color{fg}
\begin{split}
w \cdot x + b &= 1, \text{ and}\\
w \cdot x + b &= -1
  \end{split}
}

\end{document}
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

The compilation of that results in

I was just fooling with this a bit, and am noticing some odd (to me)
behavior. If I start with emacs -Q, then (goto-char (org-log-beginning))
takes me to the start of a :LOGBOOK: drawer, and (org-element-at-point)
returns the drawer. That works no matter whether the log drawer is
folded or not. But if the headline is folded, (org-element-at-point)
returns the headline.

Starting emacs with my usual customizations, it's even weirder than
that. If I start with the subtree visible but the log drawer folded,
then this (starting with point in the middle of the headline):

(progn
  (goto-char (org-log-beginning))
  (org-element-at-point))

Gives me paragraph. But eval'ing the two lines above consecutively (without
the progn), gives me the drawer. If the logbook drawer is unfolded, I
get paragraph every time.

Anyway, I don't know what the expected behavior is, and I don't know how
outline visibility is supposed to impact document parsing. But this
seems strange...

All I've customized is:

(setq org-log-into-drawer t)

Thanks,
eric

Done, as `org-log-beginning'. Note that it will return a non-nil value

[O] math in parentheses

Hi,

I encounter a problem using $..$ expressions when they are enclosed

[O] Problem updating using git

[Vikas Rawal]

I just tried updating my org installation (present version, installed via git, 
Org-mode version 8.3beta (release_8.3beta-485-gf70439).

It gives me following error:


   passed  524/525  test-org/up-element
   passed  525/525  test-org/update-radio-target-regexp

Ran 525 tests, 524 results as expected, 1 unexpected (2014-10-28 16:44:38+0530)
4 expected failures

1 unexpected results:

Not sure if there is a bug or a problem at my end.

Would be happy to provide any further details that may be needed.

[O] R code blocks and 'could not find function ".ess.eval"'

[William Denton]

This problem was reported last month and then again earlier this month, for 
example here:


https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2014-10/msg00178.html

I'm running Emacs 25.0.50.2, Org 8.2.10 and ESS 14.1x.  I'm getting a lot of

   Error: could not find function ".ess.eval"

errors when evaluating R code blocks, even simple ones like this:

  #+BEGIN_SRC R :session :exports results
  1 + 1
  #+END_SRC

I have a more complicated Org file with a bunch of R in it that I want to export 
to a PDF, but I get this:


   Args out of range: #, 0 ,1

I've been trying to debug it and seemed to narrow down a minimal example to 
whether or not a simple block had ":exports results" in it, but yesterday when 
working on this some process would go haywire and my machine would slow down 
and then freeze!  I had to force a reboot.  I've never had Emacs do that before.


I see that a patch was introduced for ob-R.el that fixes the 'could not find 
function ".ess.eval"' problem---will that be pushed into the main release soon?


And has anyone else been running into problems like this recently?  From what I 
saw in the archives it looks like it went away for most people.

One solution with TBLFM is:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  '(10)
#+END_SRC

#+NAME: A
#+RESULTS:
| 10 |

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  '(20)
#+END_SRC

#+NAME: B
#+RESULTS:
| 20 |

Aggregate multiple tables:
| Table | Value |
|---+---|
| A |10 |
| B |20 |
#+TBLFM: @<<$2..@>$2 = remote($1, @1$1)

Requires Emacs 24.4 or an Org version from at least 2014.

Hi, thank you for your answer.

Your solution is OK but only for the example I gave (2 or 3 results). In 
practice I have about 10 results and the number of them may be variable...
Furthermore :vars does not work on my version (I must use :var x=A :var y=B)...

you could define a 3rd block C that takes the results from block A and B

use a #+NAME: A line) and then do (list A x B y) in block C and use the

Honestly, a patch or an exact bug report would be great.  If something
is not right it should be fixed across all backends.  That being said,
at least cheackboxes are pretty pretty these days

(checkbox (case (org-element-property :checkbox item)
 (on "$\\boxtimes$ ")
 (off "$\\square$ ")
 (trans "$\\boxminus$ ")))

It would be nice to format all timestamps using strftime-like syntax.

Thomas S. Dye tried it back in the days.  It was called org-article¹.
I'm sure he will share his experience here eventually.

In general, if you want to pursuit this, I would advice you to look
into derived classes, ox and ox-latex.  In ox-latex search for
org-export-define-backend and note how each element is "translated"
using a functinon.  From the sound of your project you will want to
tune some of them, and change the default class (for the latter point
see ox-koma-letter).

I think you will have a easier time today than Thomas' had, since ox
and org-element is so modual and easy to work with.

Two good examples of ox-latex derived backends are ox-beamer.el and
ox-koma-letter.el.

Hope it helps.

I did something similar, for similar reasons. I found it easier to make a
LaTeX Template look like what I wanted than to force Org into generating
LaTeX that was what I wanted.

I haven't done slides yet, because I've not picked up Beamer and my
approach was more branding. I have once class that brand-matches my primary
employer (Font, logo usage, etc.), another one that matches one of my large
volunteer efforts, and yet another generic “personal” one for “my”
documents.

you could define a 3rd block C that takes the results from block A and B
as variable via :vars x=A y=B (A and B must be named blocks for this,
use a #+NAME: A line) and then do (list A x B y) in block C and use the
:results format that outputs a list as a table (often it is the default,
otherwise try :results table or so).

Make sure to have a look at expl3 (and others like e.g. xparse and
xstring) package, i.e. upcoming LaTeX 3, before writing this class,
because as a programming language the new version seems highly superior,
and will most likely result in much cleaner and more readable code.

Its well documented, search for 'The LaTeX 3 Interface' and 'The expl3
Package and LaTeX 3 Programming'.

[O] Include results in a table

[abonnements]

Hello everybody,
I have somethink like that

#+call: gen(A)
#+results: A
: 10

#+call: gen(B)
#+results: B
: 20

Is there a simple mean to aggregate the results in a table, i.e to get
| A | 10 |
| B | 20 |

I think some lisp can do that but as a beginner... but as I want to 
learn you can suggest a somewhat complicated solution or a simple idea.

I played some with the 24.4 and now can confirm your report.  Emacs
crashed every time after C-c C-c in the caption buffer.

Unfortunately I could not understand what's going on.

Being pragmatic you could comment the line

 (when capture-frame-p (make-frame-invisible))  ;; hide quickly

This line looks like cosmetics and commenting out this line worked as a
side stepping for me.

Re: [O] An Org-mode LaTeX class?

[Fabrice Popineau]

I think that I don't know if you can suit everybody's need but that is
worth a try.
For myself, I already wrote a dedicated LaTeX class, because it was too
cumbersome
to configure org-mode for the different kind of documents I need to produce
(not impossible, just too lengthy to duplicate parameters).
Hence, I have a class that can output exams, lab sessions texts, course
notes and slides
with only a couple of options. And I export only subtrees that are
configured for
this class. it took a bit of time, but it definitely worth it.
