[O] Org-file "path"-type links
Hey. New to this list this time around... I've been tinkering with a custom link-type and I'm curious if anyone else is at all interested in it. I use org-mode (among other things) to keep a sort of log or daily journal at work. Things are entered in by date: I have "* 2019" as a top-level head, then "** 2019-07 July" and "*** 2019-07-25 Þursday" (actually not exactly that since I use odd-only mode, but not the point), and so forth. (Note that the headlines are *not* date-links; the docs say that's a Bad Thing.) My formatting is pretty free-form beyond that, and I don't always remember to sub-head subjects below that, or I use plain lists or whatever... also not the point. What matters is that sometimes I *do* make proper sub-headings, and sometimes I may want to link to them. I know I can make a link to [[*Best Firing Ever]] to link to a particular headline, but often there are many headlines with the same text, like " Weekly Shouting at Boss" or something, and [[*Weekly Shouting at Boss]] won't necessarily link to the one I want. I want the one that was under "2019-07-24 Wednesday" for this link, and not any other. I don't know of any way that org-mode has to distinguish such things (apart from "name the headlines uniquely, moron," which to be sure is one way to do it), so I have been making a "path"-type or "tree"-type link. So I can have a hyperlink that links to [[tree:2019*2019-07 July*2019-07-24 Wednesday*Weekly Shouting at Boss][really told him off this time]] and that links to *this* particular headline, following the tree down link by link, separated by *'s. And you can also have a filename, of course, like say [[tree:/home/me/bestofjournal.org::Successes*Solitaire Games*Best One Ever]] or something. The code at this point works, including the store-link code (though adding it in overshadows the default store-link code for org-mode, which might be a problem), but it's still just a PoC, needs documentation, etc. And probably a better name; I have "tree:" as the keyword but it's probably awful... maybe something like "orglink:"? I know there's already a library by that name. I'm just wondering if anyone else thinks this is a good idea. Maybe it's just for my unusual way of using org. There are other ways to do this, probably (maybe a "link-store" function that stores an ordinary org-mode link *and* also creates a unique target at the point?); this is what I did. If I put this up on github or elpa, would anyone else use it? ~mark

Thank you Jens für your hint.

FYI, here is the mu4e implementation defined so that the standard org-store-link properly work based on msgid: https://github.com/djcb/mu/blob/master/mu4e/org-mu4e.el#L117 When viewing email I use the same keybindings as elswhere, C-l to store link, and C-c C-l to paste it and I get: [[mu4e:msgid:325foo...@mx.google.com][SUBJECT OF EMAIL]] -k.

Thanks for your question Eric. :) Of course, INBOX works for you if you do not archive the message in All emails folder or elsewhere. If you move it from INBOX, in case where you like to have the cleanest INBOX that is the empty one, you won't get no more the email via this link. I wanted to have in IMAP the shortest list to see only three folders in my Gnus INBOX [Gmail]/Tous les messages [Gmail]/Corbeille I have defined shortucts: key "Inser" archives email into [Gmail]/Tousles messagesand "Suppr"sends emailinto [Gmail]/Corbeille. The most tricky is to get the Summary [Gmail]/Tous les messages in a reasonable time, because with a lot of emails, Gnus in imap can be too slow. My solution is in this line: (setq gnus-newsgroup-maximum-articles 7) and it works. For people who are reluctant to use offlineimap or mbsync and who therefore prefer Gnus over mu4e , it makes almost the same job, via imap. I can share of course all my setup and I am also curious of improving it. Best wishes, -- Jo.

[O] org-links for Gnus in imap with Gmail (for a convenient todo.org list)
Hello,
Documentation to create a todo.org list that provides links to email as
tasks is not seldom on the web. I recommend for example
[[http://pragmaticemacs.com/]].
But for gnus-imap-gmail users, it is more difficult to get the same
thing.
Here is a the lines of code in my setup (user.el in Kitchin's scimax)
that work for gnus in imap:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
;;capture todo items using C-c c t
(define-key global-map (kbd "C-c c") 'org-capture)
(setq org-capture-templates
'(("t" "todo" entry (file+headline "~/Dropbox/Orgzly/todo.org" "Tasks")
"* TODO [#A] %?\n
[[~/Dropbox/Orgzly/links.org::%(org-insert-time-stamp (org-read-date nil t
\"%:date\"))]] \n* %(org-insert-time-stamp (org-read-date nil t \"%:date\")) %a
")))
(defun hs/replace ()
(interactive)
(goto-char 1)
(let ((search-invisible t)) (replace-string "gnus:INBOX#"
"gnus:%5BGmail%5D/Tous les messages#")))
(define-key global-map (kbd "C-c r") 'hs/replace)
(add-hook 'org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook 'hs/replace)
(defun my/refile (file headline arg)
(let ((pos (save-excursion
(find-file file)
(org-find-exact-headline-in-buffer headline
(org-refile arg nil (list headline file nil pos)))
(switch-to-buffer (current-buffer)))
(defhydra jo/org-refile-hydra (:foreign-keys run)
"Refile"
("l" (my/refile "~/Dropbox/Orgzly/links.org" "Links") "Links")
("j" org-refile-goto-last-stored "Jump to last refile")
("q" nil "cancel"))
;; Or whatever you want your keybinding to be
(global-set-key (kbd " r") 'jo/org-refile-hydra/body)
(global-set-key (kbd " a") 'org-archive-subtree)
;;refile
https://blog.aaronbieber.com/2017/03/19/organizing-notes-with-refile.html
(setq org-refile-targets '((org-agenda-files :maxlevel . 2)))
(setq org-refile-use-outline-path 'file)
(setq org-outline-path-complete-in-steps nil)
(setq org-refile-allow-creating-parent-nodes 'confirm)
(setq org-refile-targets '((nil :maxlevel . 2)
(org-agenda-files :maxlevel . 2)))
(setq org-outline-path-complete-in-steps nil) ; Refile in a single go
(setq org-refile-use-outline-path t) ; Show full paths for
refiling
(setq org-refile-targets (quote (("todo.org" :maxlevel . 2)
("links.org" :level . 2)
)))
#+END_SRC
with any file open in emacs, like for example this email, C-c c t
gives the following result that I paste below:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
** TODO [#A]
[[~/Dropbox/Orgzly/links.org::<2019-07-25 jeu.>]]
** <2019-07-25 jeu.> [[file:~/News/drafts/drafts/129]]
#+END_SRC
Because I like to see my todo list with conky on my wallpaper, I
refile the second link into links.org and it is now easy to get
immediately from todo.org the correct entry that have the appropriate
link in links.org.
In Gnus, it is the same thing. For example C-c c t in reading the last
email that I received from John Kitchin provides:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
** TODO [#A]
[[~/Dropbox/Orgzly/links.org::<2019-07-25 jeu.>]]
** <2019-07-25 jeu.>
[[gnus:INBOX#caj51etqlcftezvpyg0auzzl2hgwvgcoewkem8okznll-es5...@mail.gmail.com][Email
from John Kitchin: Re: scimax question]]
#+END_SRC
But I need to change the mention of INBOX in the link to John's
email. Hence the function hs/replace via C-c r with the cursor on the
link that gives the wanted result:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
** TODO [#A]
[[~/Dropbox/Orgzly/links.org::<2019-07-25 jeu.>]]
** <2019-07-25 jeu.> [[gnus:%5BGmail%5D/Tous les
messages#caj51etqlcftezvpyg0auzzl2hgwvgcoewkem8okznll-es5...@mail.gmail.com][Email
from John Kitchin: Re: scimax question]]
#+END_SRC
and then the email can be archived in Tous les messages, Gnus will
find it, via imap.gmail.com .
That's it. I hope some of you will find this useful. Let me know. Of
course the code must be adapted according to the language of the gmail
user, it goes without saying.
(In refiling, I do not succeed to get other level that level one for
sections, but it is a detail. )
Best wishes,
--
Jo.

[O] hwo to use different font size and emphasis in src snippets?
Hi all, I'd like to make my presentations a little more appealing. I've got code snippets like the following: #+begin_src shell % pgbench -i -s 30 -F 100 --foreign-keys -h 127.0.0.1 -U luca pgbench generating data... 10 of 300 tuples (3%) done (elapsed 0.09 s, remaining 2.64 s) 20 of 300 tuples (6%) done (elapsed 0.14 s, remaining 1.94 s) 30 of 300 tuples (10%) done (elapsed 0.18 s, remaining 1.66 s) ... vacuuming... creating primary keys... creating foreign keys... done. #+end_src I would like to: 1) put an emphasis on the command line (first line), let's say to put it in bold; 2) use a smaller font for the command output without reducing the font size of the command line. Of course, the export is in beamer. Is it possible? Any suggestions? Thanks, Luca

The last line of my org file is something like that: * bibliography:referenzen.bib Since I am using reveal.js-3.8.0 I get two bibliography slides instead of one at the end of the slide deck. Normal Html export works correctly, there I see only one bibliography header. Any hints what's going wrong? Johannes

Yes, indeed; I have that as a default package to load by org for all

Nothing beyond what you have already done. I am surprised that the
image proportions are not preserved. Maybe post a minimal example
(including an image)?

Thanks a lot, I'm refactoring it to my needs but it is a very good
starting point. However, I had to place a
\usepackage{tikz}
in the theme file to make it compile.
Now, the first question is: is there a way I define the image width to
automatically adjust to the slide size?
Something like the following almost work:
\node[inner sep=0pt,above,left] (logo) at (\paperwidth,8pt)
{\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth]{images/logo.png}};
but the image does not keep proportions. It would be better to enlarge
the image from right to left up to all the space before the page
numbering. Any hint?
Thanks,
