[O] :noweb expansion happens before :prologue expansion. Why?

[Vladimir Nikishkin]

Hello, everyone

I wanted to do the following
#+name: common
#+begin_src scheme
(display "Common header\n")
#+end_src

#+begin_src scheme :noweb yes :prologue "<>"
(display "particular block")
#+end_src

This fails, because :prologue is language-specific, and is expanded
later than :noweb, so I am getting <> in my code rather than
the expansion.

Why? Only four language modules care to implement :prologue (R,
scheme, maxima, gnuplot) , and all of them do it by just concatenating
it with the rest of the code, and as a result the wonderful
possibility of attaching common headers to blocks is greatly reduced,
since they are not expanded at all.

Would it make more sense to expand the :prologue and :epilogue
_before_ :noweb rather than after and do it in a uniform way (that is,
simply concatenate)?

I am ready to make a patch, as long as it won't be rejected.

Re: [O] Insert subheading at top respect content

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Nate,

What do you mean by passing "the right argument".  Which argument do you
want to pass?

At first, I thought the direct way to fix your function would be

(defun njn-subheading-respect-content ()
  (interactive "")
  (org-next-visible-heading 1)
  (org-insert-heading nil)
 )

because in your original example, the heading did already have a child.
However, that is not guaranteed, and in the above implementation, the
new heading is created with the level of the next headline, and that
next headline might be a sibling, a child or a parent.  So we need to
explicitly set the level:

(defun njn-subheading-respect-content ()
  (interactive "")
  (let ((level (car (org-heading-components
(org-next-visible-heading 1)
(org-insert-heading nil)
(while (<= (car (org-heading-components)) level)
  (org-demote

I am using (possibly repeated) calls to `org-demote', because this will
do everything correct, also with stuff like org-odd-levels only etc.

Hope this helps.

- Carsten

Thanks Carsten - I created a function:
(defun njn-subheading-respect-content ()
  (interactive "")
  (org-next-visible-heading 1)
  (org-insert-subheading 't)
 )

But I'm trying to find out where to get the "correct" arg
to org-next-visible-heading - I have hard-coded a 1 in the
above example, but this produces the following subheading:

* Heading <-exec when cursor on this heading
Some content about Heading
*** New heading is inserted here (and is the wrong level - should be 2
instead of 3)
** Sub1
** Sub2

I will mess with this function a bit and post if I find a solution.

[O] Custom function: Detect agenda mode

[Nathan Neff]

Hello all,

I would like to map the same key to different functions in evil mode.

For example, ",s" should be a shortcut to the schedule command.

I'd like to have one function that I would map the command to, which
would call either org-schedule or org-agenda-schedule, depending on whether
the cursor is in an Agenda view or an org file.

What is the "correct" way to do this?  Is there some handy functional
programming
fu that I should know?  For example, I wouldn't be surprised to find a
function
in org-mode already that would do the detection and take the proper action.

Thanks,

It appears that the above now creates a table, not a recutils file. 
Spaces are the delimiter,

Re: [O] change font-size in python plots depending on context

[johanna . may]

Hi there,

thanks to Thomas and Eric.
I actually found a rather stupid mistake: I was already using a var (for
the png filename generation) and the header did not read the next
:var. So I added ,fs=fontsize to the first :var and now it works.

I will have a look Eric's function of how to get the value of
e.g. fontsize and so on (btw, I also need textwidth and textheight from
somewhere). I also found a python pgf package but I couldn't figure out
fast how to implement that (it sounds as if instead of png a pgf is
generated and then everything has the right latex layout, so pretty
cool, but it seemed not so easy to implement).

So long, cheers!
