Link to open PDF at a specific page
Hi,
I'd like to open a PDF file to a specific page from a link, using the
default PDF viewer in Windows (same as w32-shell-execute "open"), which
opens a browser.
With a browser, I can open it with this HTML link:
Page 4
This link as an Org mode link doesn't work:
file:///c:/a/b/c/file.pdf#page=4
as "#page=4" is interpreted as part of the filename by w32-shell-execute.
If I modify org-file-apps for PDF to:
("\\.pdf::\\([0-9]+\\)\\'" . "browser file:///%s#page=%1")
and if the Org link is:
file:///c:/a/b/c/file.pdf::4
it doesn't work because the argument passed to browser is:
file:///"c:/a/b/c/file.pdf"#page=4
A quick workaround is to modify org-open-file by removing
shell-quote-argument, from:
(shell-quote-argument (convert-standard-filename file))
to
(convert-standard-filename file)
to get the following string, which correctly opens page 4.
"file:///c:/a/b/c/file.pdf#page=4"
If I export the file as HTML, it is output as:
...
so I modified org-html-link from:
(concat raw-path
"#"
(org-publish-resolve-external-link option path t))
to
(concat raw-path
"#"
(let ((r (org-publish-resolve-external-link option path t)))
(or (and (string= r "MissingReference")
(string-match "\\.pdf\\'" path)
(string-match "[0-9]+" option)
(format "page=%s" option))
r)))
which generates the wanted HTML link:
...
Is there any way less quick & dirty to achieve this?
Thanks!

This regexp apparently is not active anymore So, I've tweaked `org--get-outline-path-1' in order to keep the statistical/checkboxes cookies. > The problem is that it could clutter the display, and statistics cookie > are, for most use-cases, I assume, not an interesting information when > it comes to refiling. The reason I do that is because I want to refile a task (single action) under a project (multiple action item, with statistics cookie) and not under another plain task. Thanks for your help. --

This was fixed recently. Which regexp are refering to? I would very much like the checkbox cookies "[2/5]" be shown at all times. Is there an easy way I can tweak this regexp to do so? -- Georges

[O] Parsing org files with python
Hi there, I'm a quite recent user of org-mode (just a few months, very partial usage for now), and a python developer. Since I spend almost all my time in Emacs, org-mode is the most efficient tool to keep track of my working time. Now the question : are you aware of a python library to parse org files ? The ultimate goal would be to write an importer for OpenERP, which is itself written in python, and of course I'd prefer not to reinvent the wheel. A simple search on the web returned a project called OrgNode or orgtils, hosted at Google Code : http://members.optusnet.com.au/~charles57/GTD/orgnode.html http://code.google.com/p/orgtils/ but it lacks as far as I can tell the capability of understanding CLOCK markers and is not published on pypi.python.org either. Perhaps is the author on this list, too ? Are there other known libraries around that may prove useful ? Being quite new to this game, I could be mistaken, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with org-babel, right ? And please, don't hesitate to tell if this ain't the right mailing-list for that kind of question :-) Cheers -- Georges Racinet, http://www.racinet.fr Zope/CPS expertise, assistance development GPG: 0x4862FFF7 identi.ca twitter: gracinet signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
