Ah, interesting.  Is this a bug or a feature?

FWIW, I definitely use native compilation on my private laptop and almost
certainly on my work (Windows) laptop as well.

So at least I’m not crazy for "coming up with" it backporting!

So I will keep calling it "backporting" but explain that it is more like
propagating changes from the Emacs repository (back) to the Org

It’s not quite that complicated in my patch/WIP.  You specify an ordering
function.  E.g. the plain list is:

 (defun org-publish-org-sitemap-as-list (files project-plist)
   "Insert FILES as simple list separated by newlines.
 PROJECT-PLIST holds the project information."
   (mapconcat
(lambda (file) (org-publish-format-file-entry
   org-publish-sitemap-file-entry-format
   file project-plist))
files "\n"))

If you don’t have the full flexibility of a function I guess someone will
always run into trouble eventually...

Isn’t that’s what my patch does?  The file sorting function call the
formater, providing these arguments.  We could move the formatting back in
the "main" sitemap publishing function, to hide it from users, if that’s
better.

(format-spec

I like that, but AFAIK the backend is not known at the time the sitemap is
generated.  And it might not be deducible from the publishing function.

No it doesn't: pacman -S pandoc.

The relevant question here is whether we can accept to rely on pandoc for
CSL support.  Any other feature is irrelevant.

At 25MB, a static, precompiled pandoc is probably fine, but for users of
some OSs, such as Archlinux or even worse some OS where pandoc is not
generally available as a precompiled package, it’s a really, really big
dependency.  I may still be the best option, though.

 Thanks for the patch. However there are already mechanisms to complete
 keywords faster (e.g., M-TAB, yasnippet).

Personally, I never figured out how to use yasnippet.  M-TAB is for
completion of new lines, not for continuation of ongoing work.

 Of course, yours is more efficient, but also very specific.

So say you do
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{biblatex}
Now you need to add a bib resource.  It's nice to quickly be able to get
a new #+LATEX_HEADER-line.  It's specific, but it's meant as a
continuation of the M-RET logic.

 It makes sense on very few keywords.  I have no strong opinion here,
 but I don't think it is general enough to go into core.

OK.  Hopefully some more people will chime in so we can make an educated
guess.

 Moreover, it can get in the way of expected M-RET behaviour, as in the
 following example

   - item

   | #+caption: test
 untenrsiu
 
 where M-RET is expected to insert an item.

Sure. . .  I'm not sure expected behavior is what I'd like here.  But
that's the initial point, I guess.

 Anyway, some comments follow.

Thanks for those.

Re: [O] [PATCH][ox-koma-letter] changed-in-buffer, subject, minor fixes

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

 Would you give the attached patches a spin?  I think they work nicely;
 only the second patch is non-trivial.  Basically, one can ignore
 subject and title differences as now by setting
 org-koma-letter-prefer-subject to t and not use the SUBJECT keyword.

 I have set the default of -prefer-subject to nil per the discussion
 with Alan and Michael Strey.

 It should apply against master.

 It looks good. Thank you.

 A few minor remarks below.

 +(defcustom org-koma-letter-use-title t
 +  Non-nil means use a title in the letter if present.
 +
 +See also `org-koma-letter-prefer-subject' for the handling of
 +title versus subject.
 +  :group 'org-export-koma-letter
 +  :type 'boolean)

 You should also talk about the OPTIONS item, i.e., title:nil, as in
 other defcustoms.

 +(defcustom org-koma-letter-prefer-subject nil
 +  Non-nil means title should be interpret as subject if subject is 
 missing.
 +
 +This may be useful for older documents where the SUBJECT keyword
 +was not present.
 +:group 'org-export-koma-letter
 +:type 'boolean)

 Ditto.

 -   ;; Subject

 `title-as-subject', `subject' and `title' belong to the `let' below, not

Re: [O] Best practices for literate programming [was: Latex export of tables]

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Dear Tom,

 I suppose this depends on what is meant by reproducible.

 My goal is to produce a compendium as defined by Gentleman and Lang
 (see Gentleman R, Lang DT (2004). Statistical Analyses and Reproducible
 Research. Technical report, Bioconductor Project. URL
 http://www.bepress.com/bioconductor/paper2).  

 I keep the init.el file as a babel source block with the reproducible
 document, so it can be tangled. I also have an editing setup in a babel
 source block that activates many of the same features handled by the
 init.el file, but also configures the new exporter to look for init.el
 (which might have a different name). The filters are all part of the Org
 document, too, and get pulled into the init.el file with noweb
 references.

My issue here is that this approach might lead to copy-paste
preambles which may or may not be desirable.  I can certainly see
the attraction in being able to just tangle the setup.  In fact for my
thesis I also had a preamble.tex blog in my file.  Your proposed setup
here is perhaps better in that it uses emacs-lisp.

Still, say I'm working on two files A and B.  If I fix a bug in
preamble A I would have to manually copy it over to B.  

Thus, the main question is how to distribute updates?  I guess one
could keep a separate file, but then we are back at square one in a
way. . .

One possibility might be a file structure like this

setup.org
A/project-A.org
A/setup-A.org
B/project-B.org
B/setup-B.org

where A and B both has a block like
#+BEGIN_SRC org
* Preamlbe:noexport:
#+INCLUDE: ../setup.org
#+INCLUDE: setup-A.org
#+END_SRC

To ship it off one would only have to write a command to replacing
#+INCLUDE with its content.  The exporter could likely be used for
this and one could produce an archive version when signing off a
project.

Even more robust, #+INCLUDE: would look for files in org-directory (it
might already do, I didn't check).

Am I missing something obvious (probably?) in the above stream of
random thoughts?  It's kind of a LaTeX-ish way of dealing with it, I
guess.

 I am able to distribute the compendium, typically as a single
 document (sometimes with associated data files produced by an
 on-line service that can't be used programmatically), which I
 believe is a good step toward reproducibility.

Agreed.

Re: [O] [ox-latex] Bad default value for image width?

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

In general this auto width code seems super annoying.  Consider this 

From ox-latex.el:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
 (width (cond ((plist-get attr :width))
  ((plist-get attr :height) )
  ((eq float 'figure) 0.7\\textwidth)
  ((eq float 'wrap) 0.48\\textwidth)
  (t org-latex-image-default-width)))
#+END_SRC

Consider the following example: 

#+BEGIN_SRC org

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(make-local-variable 'org-latex-image-default-width)
(setq org-latex-image-default-width )
#+END_SRC

#+NAME:firm-ts-fig
#+CAPTION: test
[[file:figs/test.tikz]]

no caption
[[file:figs/test.tikz]]

#+END_SRC

This exports as:

#+BEGIN_SRC LATEX
\begin{figure}[htb]
\centering
\resizebox{0.7\textwidth}{!}{\input{figs/test.tikz}}
\caption{\label{firm-ts-fig}test}
\end{figure}

no caption
\input{figs/test.tikz}
#+END_SRC

To me it is not intuitive why a certain width is imposed on me because
I add a caption. . .

Could we consider removing:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
 ((eq float 'figure) 0.7\\textwidth)
 ((eq float 'wrap) 0.48\\textwidth)
#+END_SRC

and maybe changing the default value of org-latex-image-default-width
to something non-intruding?

 This is a prime example of how _not_ to do this, IMHO.  The file
 protocol is an established protocol that you shouldn't bolt any extra
 parameters on.  

I very much agree.  The current hacks using links are annoying and
ugly, and if we were to do citations properly in Org—and I think we
should—it should NOT be using links (as Nicolas also pointed out).
It's a hack and shouldn't be made official.

In my book it would seem 'natural' to strive towards the following:

  1. It should be Bibtex-based.  I.e. Bibtex should be the 'database'
 or storage for citation information.  It may be stored in
 Org-Bibtex-whatever, but Bibtex should be the natural base.
  2. Citation selection should be possible via Reftex.
  3. It should look nice in the buffer.  For instance, with the
 current link hacks I am shown the pre or post notes in place of
 the citation.  Ideally, it should be able to specify a
 reftex-cite-format string on how to display stuff in the buffer.
 Notes should be viewable in an non-disturbing way.
 Ideally, I would want to see something like:
   (POSTFIX, Jensen, 1906, SUFFIX)
 or
   Jensen (POSTFIX, 1906, SUFFIX)
 (If my memory serves me correctly this is how BibLatex places
 notes).
 (4. If we are to adopt LaTeX terminology we should adopt the
 terminology of BibLatex as opposed to Natbib).

Re: [O] Publish HTML Without Title

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hi Nick,

Thanks for you answer and your verification. 

 Thanks for providing your setup. I think you are right about the code
 and I don't see any way to turn it off.

 It looks like another band-aid to me (and org-html definitely has more
 than its fair share of those), particularly given the comment about
 org-infojs: presumably, after org-infojs is fixed to look for it in
 the preamble, then the h1 header can be deleted from the content
 div
 (although anything I say about HTML should be taken with a large grain
 of salt).

The thing is, this is a 'new' thing, as the git blame log also
suggests.  Which is bothersome.  But okay.

 Next question: can't you get rid of the instance in your preamble at
 least
 temporarily? Does it have to be in the top div?

Well, you know, I would have to redesign my website.  It is possible,
but I like it. . .

The header on each side is something like:

| Title| | Menu  |
| Left aligned | empty space | Right aligned |

Which is rather neat IMO.

It used to work.  I don't know under which version of Org I wrote
(probably mostly stole :) the original CSS but I am guessing 7.6.

I had hoped for some command I could #+BIND to have Org behave as
before, (e.g. similar to the BIND for removing \maketitle in LaTeX).

Thanks for the help,
Rasmus

Re: [O] [PATCH] Add tikzDevice support to ob-R

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Aloha Thomas,

 The attached patch adds tikzDevice support to ob-R.  It requires that
 the tikzDevice package be available to R, so it must be installed and
 loaded.  Something like the following code in .Rprofile will load the
 package by default:

Thanks a bunch.  I always use pgfSweave and thus I haven't really
managed to move from Rnw (LaTeX + R files) to Org file.

Are you aware of the very handy pgfsweave bin?  In the Arch R package it
is located in

 /usr/lib/R/bin/pgfsweave

First, you don't have to load tikzDevice. Second, It makes this very
nice notation valid in Rnw files:

#+begin_src latex
\begin{figure}[tbh]
\caption{Time series $x$ and $y$}\label{fig:ts1}
ts3xy-plot, echo=FALSE, fig=T, tikz=T, external=T, cache=F, echo=F, width=7, 
height=3, sanitize=T=
plot(x.ts)
lines(y.ts)
#abline(lm(y.fil~x.fil))
@
\end{figure}
#+end_latex

which translates to the following automatically:
#+begin_src latex
\begin{figure}[tbh]
\caption{Time series $x$ and $y$}\label{fig:ts1}
\tikzsetnextfilename{class3-ts3xy-plot}
\tikzexternalfiledependsonfile{class3-ts3xy-plot}{class3-ts3xy-plot.tikz}
\input{class3-ts3xy-plot.tikz}
\end{figure}
#+end_src

It also adds nice formatting of R chucks without the need other R
packages.

Thus, using pgfSweave over regular Sweave is just wonderful.  However, I
don't know whether it can integrate with Babel.

Thanks again.

 It seems to stem from org-html. el around 1358:

 Are there any known solutions to this at the moment?


 I spent 10 minutes trying to recreate the problem, and decided that I
 have no idea what you are talking about.

 So in my role as the official and perpetual nag on this list: can you
 please post your org-publish-project-list -or at least the relevant
 subset-
 and (unless, as I suspect, the org file is completely trivial) an ECM
 exhibiting the problem?

In my publish file I have (Warning: 'destructive' example that setq
rather than add-to-list).

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-publish-project-alist
  '(
   (test
:base-directory ~/test

div id=\menu\
 a href=\index.html\ Home/a |
 a href=\emacs.html\ Emacs/a |
/div
/div
)))
#+end_src

Now use ~/test/index.org
#+begin_src org
#+TITLE: TEST

* First head
  1. point
  2. two
  3. three
#+end_src

Publish it as HTML.  Here is relevant snips from the sourced code.
#+begin_src html
[...]
head
titleTEST/title
[]
body

div id=preamble

div id=top
h1 class=titleTEST/h1
div id=menu
 a href=index.html Home/a |
 a href=emacs.html Emacs/a |
/div
/div
/div

div id=content
h1 class=titleTEST/h1
[...]
#+end_src

Note, I never asked for the second title and this is the one I want to
go away, but I don't know how.  As I pointed out in the previous case,
it seems that it may be hardcoded, but I don't know.

I use Emacs-bzr 106282 and Org-git of 2026.

[O] Beamer and non-frames

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hi,

How do I put text between frames in an Org-Beamer document? 
What I really want to do is something like:

#+begin_src LaTeX
...
\end{frame}
\againframe2{overview.fig}
\end{frame}
#+end_src 

But there is /plenty/ of use of being able to write in-between frames. 

I imagine two ways this could be archived,
  a. Use a special property for a headline
  b. Have a '#+LaTeX_Beamer:' option.

Are anybody aware of any quick fixes?

Re: [O] Beamer and non-frames

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

 I am sorry I have no solution for you just now.
 This behavior you're seeking is something I long for as well, to
 insert a this frame only custom background, to be precise.

So many great things can be put in-between 

   \end{frame}
   ...
   \begin{frame}

in Beamer

 The issue lies in the org-beamer.el way of divvying up the file into
 frames (if memory servers me, it's the org-beamer-sectioning function,
 but I can be mistaken), it's a  big function that handles most of
 org-beamers functionality. For the behavior that we seek we need to
 implement a function that can encapsulate the \begin{frame}
 ... \end{frame} code. However, this is not trivial.

Yeah, I gussed it was something like that..

However, maybe something like to the following could be implemented.
I note the following in my file:


** Frame
...

#+latex_beamer_outside_frame: \againframe2{overview.fig} %(1) 

** Next frame

The 'Org-exporter' notices (1) and stores it in a list L.  Each time it
writes \end{frame} it also checks L and if L is non-empty the exporter
will dump whatever currently exists in L after \end{frame}.

I do, however, not know whether this is easily implemented.

 It has my interest, but don't expect anything useful from me in the
 short term, as I am an elisp noob and I am just getting acquainted
 with the org api.

I am neither good at lisp nor programming in general, although I do need
the command for a Python presentation. I guess I'll have to fix the Beamer
code 'by hand'.

Re: [O] Questions on LaTeX Exporter

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

 (setq org-export-latex-hyperref-format \\ref{%s}) then you can
 refer to sections by their numbers with as we see in section
 [[section]] and it works nicely.

Wow; it works! Lawrence, in your experience, how fragile is this? The
bliss of LaTeX labels is that they are independent of the printed
headings so I can change the title and retain a sensible \ref.

Eric, thanks for your point. I still think it less than ideal, as
illustrate by this snip.

,
| \section{Introduction}
| \label{sec-1}
|
| \label{sec:into}
`

Org has a /really/ bad habit of inserting blank lines! Here is an
example of a fix from a beamer presentation:

,
| *** Stiglitz  :B_quotation:
| :PROPERTIES:
| :BEAMER_env: quotation
| :END:
| \noindent
| Social capital is a concept with a short and already confused history.
| #+latex:  \\\hfill\citep[pp. 59]{stiglitz99}
`

And the output:

,
| \begin{quotation} % Stiglitz
| \label{sec-2_1_1}

| \noindent
| Social capital is a concept with a short and already confused history.

Re: [O] Questions on LaTeX Exporter

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hi,


But Latex doesn't care?  =sec:into= will still be fine so I don't see
why this is not suitable *and* it is not fragile as far as I can tell.
I've used this approach for a long time.
No, using \label's is never fragile! The /only/ theoretical possibility 
is that the \label is placed on a new page, but this would only be an 
issue in perverse cases as vanilla-LaTeX would not place a heading alone 
(i.e. just before a page break). It is an aesthetic issue. I can't help 
my scrutinizing of the .tex-output :)


 beamer quote

I am not sure what point you are trying to make in this case?
It inserts a blank line which will cause the text to be indented. So I 
need to add a \noindent to avoid the indent. I never asked for a blank 
line. I apologize for obscurity.



(i.e. no need for the #+latex directive...)


I know. I a later quote in the same document I actually didn't use it, 
so my best guess is that it was an experiment to see whether there were 
any differences.


Thanks,
Rasmus

PS: I might go to UCL next semester. I haven't decided yet.

Re: [O] Questions on LaTeX Exporter

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

I think what Eric is asking is why does the empty line matter?  I just

realize that the undesirable behavior is caused by the fact that the
quotation rather than the quote environment is used. Sorry for the
noise!


All I need to do is call `C-c C-e p' and I get a publication quality
pdf. But of course that is not always the case when we start out with
a document, but as we approach completion I would expect to reach that
ideal state.  Isn't that how you view it?


Sure, but when undesirable results are obtained I will go to the LaTeX
code since I can determine the problem in the LaTeX code.

I am in no way unthankful. Rather, I try to share criticism that might
be useful in improving the exporter, such as not being able to demand
ordinary space rather than full stop after 'e.g.'. On the other hand, it
may be that I just add noise :)

Thanks,
Rasmus

So what I'd want was just to display. If I'd want more info I'd just RET

The fuss might be caused by an auto-generated diary. I don't know.




So I'd say for now no, you cannot reduce your diary entry to just one

[Orgmode] Agenda and one-line diary display

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hi, 

I have finally found a tolerable solution to include Google calendars
into Emacs and thus Org using emacs-google[1].

However, one thing is bothering me about the way Org agenda view handles
my newly populated diary file. It shows too much information! Basically,
I want /one line per entry/. If I want more info I'll just hit the
entry. The reason is that I will often include a lot of extra
information for each calendar/diary entry. When needed, I will fetch it
but it usually preclude the overview that I wish to obtain in the agenda
view.

Here is a simple agenda example: 

,
|   Diary:  Semester start
|   Diary:  Location: Lund University
|   Diary:  Status: CONFIRMED   (UID: 
5g7mb67iupjvf75cdorlr1b...@google.com)
`

And the corresponding diary code:

,
| %%(and (diary-block 1 17 2011 1 17 2011)) Semester start
|Location: Lund University
|Status: CONFIRMED  (UID: 5g7mb67iupjvf75cdorlr1b...@google.com)
`

What I want to agenda view to show is merely: 

,
|   Diary:  Semester start
`

Or, even better:

,
|   Diary:  Semester start (Lund University)
`

I.e. no other information than the event and if possible the
location. If time is available this should also be displayed, but all in
one line. 

Is this possible in one way or the other? If so I'd appreciate any hints
on getting there. 

Thanks a bunch,
Rasmus

I guess we can simply add these to org-html-entities t=and that might
already solve the issue.

You are probably right :)

[Orgmode] Bug: \log and friends are not recognized as math [6.34b]

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

 http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.


Hello,
It seems a bit extravagant to include all of the system-info so I removed
most of it . . .

Anyhow Org does not recognized \log and friends as math when using the 
latex-exporter.


Try the following minimal example

\log is math. so is \ln

The LaTeX result is:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{longtable}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{wrapfig}
\usepackage{soul}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{hyperref}

% NOTICE THE TITLE.
\title{\log is math. so is \ln}
% It should have been $\log$ and $\ln$
\author{Rasmus}
\date{17 January 2010}

\begin{document}

\maketitle

\setcounter{tocdepth}{3}
\tableofcontents
\vspace*{1cm}

\end{document}

Would it be possible to adopt \log-like functions as math? \cos, \tan,
\sin are also affected.
It is so convenient to write \log-like but I have to fix the exported
latex file manually afterward.

BTW: I created a very complex econometric note in org. Once I had
squeezed the LaTeX-related bugs (math typos) the export was /perfect/!
(except for the \log's). Good work!

 That said, Giovanni's proposal to use \(\) is excellentadvice, at least
 in cases where using $..$ causes trouble.- Carsten

Acctually, at first I used \(...\) but at that time Org had a harder
time picking up \(...\) than $...$ which caused a lot of \($...$\). I
have not checked whether it works better now.

[Orgmode] Re: LaTeX Export

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hello,
Sorry for the late reply. This is regarind a bug in LaTeX export.
The trouble seems to happen when autofill is used. It
might be caused by something else. I am not sure. The thing is
that Org sometimes misintpretate $ as the currency symbolar
rather than math as in LaTeX-lingu. IMO the use of $ as a
currency symbol should be optional.

Here is an example of the error:

Org source: 

   - Funktioner findes ved at sætte funktionen lige en given konstant
 $k$. Dermed bestemmes indifferentfunktion. Det ses nemt at
 $u(x_1, x_2)=k$.

LaTeX export: 

   \item Funktioner findes ved at sætte funktionen lige en given konstant
 \$k\$. Dermed bestemmes indifferentfunktion. Det ses nemt at
 $u(x_1, x_2)=k$.

I have pulled the newest revision of Org. The version is 6.22b.

Thanks,
Rasmus

[Orgmode] Bug and feature request in HTML export

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hello,
There seems to be a bug in HTML export.
I am using Org for making a (fancy) web site.
I define the top menu via a list which is made fancy via CSS.

The Org file looks like this:

#+HTML: div id=topbar

  - [[file:index.org][Forside]]
  - [[file:eksempler.org][Eksempler]]

#+HTML: /div

The corrosponding HTML code looks like this:

div id=navbar

ul
li
a href=index.htmlForside/a
/li
li
a href=eksempler.htmlEksempler/a
/li
/div

/li
/ul

Thus, when I try to validate the site it gets errors! It should look
like 

...
/li
/ul
/div

I tried to insert a comment (#) after the list but Org still ended div
before ul.

I also have a couple of feature request/bug reports for html export:

First: it would be nice if one could specify the location of the title
similar to the [TABLE-OF-CONTENTS] option. At the moment it seems to
always be placed in the top of the page, which might not be desirable. 

Second: I do not know if this is a feature, but * Heading (i.e. a first
level heading) is marked as a h2 heading. It should probably be
h1. At least one should be able to define it as a h1 heading.

Third (bug): Sometimes links are rendered wrong: 
 [[http://etext.library.adelaide.edu.au/k/keynes/john_maynard/k44g/k44g.html]]
 is rendered as a 
href=http://etext.library.adelaide.edu.au/k/keynes/john_maynard/k44g/k44g.html;http://etext.library.adelaide.edu.au/k/keynes/johnsubmaynard/sub/k44g/k44g.html/a
 notice the sub-tags!

Forth: Sometimes it is desirable to be able to #+HTML in links and
titles. This is not possible.
For example:
 #+TITLE:  #+HTML: span class=latexTsubE/subX/span
or 
[[http://scripts.sil.org/xetex][
#+HTML: span class=latexXsub#398;/subTsube/subX/span
]]

Thanks,
Rasmus

Carsten Dominik domi...@science.uva.nl writes:

Hello,

 Org cannot know that you do want to end the list here, the HTML
 insertion might be part of the list.

 I do not know how to fix this.
I see your point. But if i have a lot of blank lines it probably should
not be included. Somehow one needs to signal to Org that this is not
part of the list. The most obvious signal seems to be a lot of blank
lines, or does that solution contain undesirable sideeffects?  

 It seems to me quite reasonable to put it at the top of the page.
Sure, but it might be useful to have the title several places on the
site. Sometimes it might be useful to place it elsewhere than the top.

 Don't forget that Org is not a full HTML editor, it just tried to do a
 good job at converting your file.

I know :-) But it is still the best HTML editor/parser I have used in
a looong time! The publish feature is fantanstic. Good job BTW!

 You do not have a recent version of Org-mode.  Please always try the
 latest version before reporting bugs.
I have 6.22b but the page had not been refreshed with the new
version. Sorry!

 This is not supported currently, and I am not sure we will get there.
Maybe one day :-)

 For this specific case you will get away with ...
Thanks! 

 However, if you need this much or more control, maybe Muse will be a
 better option.
Org rocks. 'Nuff said :-)

BTW: Is it possible make part of a word italicized. I.e. Ti/k/Z where
the 'k' is italicized?

Thanks for Org.

[Orgmode] Re: LaTeX Export

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

 I have tried to fix the issues with dollars, please download the
 latest GIT version and check if your stuff is now converted better.

I have gotten the newest git version from today. I have Org v6.17trans.

There is still something funny with $-signs.

Here are a couple of examples:
--
LaTeX output: 
  \item Hvis en vare har input \$x\$ \dots

Org:
  - Hvis en vare har input $x$ \dots
--
LaTeX output:
   $$M\overline{V}=P\overline{Y}$$
   \$M\$ er bestemt af centralbanken, og det eneste den bestemmer er
   prisniveauet.

Org:
 - Produktionsfunktionen brugt af monetarister:
   $$M\overline{V}=P\overline{Y}$$
   $M$ er bestemt af centralbanken, og det eneste den bestemmer er
   prisniveauet.
--
LaTeX output (this one is particuarily troublesome):
  \item På arbejdsmarkedet bestemmes ligevægten imellem $L_d$ og $L_s\$
   Her ud fra findes ligevægten i udbudet.

Org:
 - På arbejdsmarkedet bestemmes ligevægten imellem $L_d$ og $L_s$
   Her ud fra findes ligevægten i udbudet.
--
LaTeX (also troublesome):
  \item Givet ved $y=f(l, k)\$

Org: 
 - Givet ved $y=f(l, k)$
--
There are lots of \$ in the end of math even though there is no line
break.

Cheers,
Rasmus

[Orgmode] Re: LaTeX Export

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

 First of all, org 3.16c is very old indeed so *maybe* this works
 better in a more recent version?
Sorry, it is 6.16c :-) (Thanks Matthew!)
I believe it is the version bundled with the latest Emacsw32 from
ourcomments.org. I am using a Emacsw32 from December 2008.
Since I use win32 I am not able to use the provided update-script. 
Is is okay to overwrite the el files in the Emacs folder and recompile
them?

 Second, you could help with an example which demonstrates the problem.
Sorry. I should have included examples in the first post.
Here is an example from the notes I am working on.
The LaTeX output is:

\begin{itemize}
\item Indtegnes i et $x_1/x_2$-diagram, evt. med indifferentkurver.
\item Kurve, der sammensætte alle de bedste løsninger \$(x_1^{*},
  x_2^{*})$ ved varierende indkomst $m$.
\end{itemize}

Notice the \$ in the second item. Since I rarely use $ as a symbol but
use it all the time as math delimiter it would be more efficient to use
\$ when I actually need a $-sign.

Here is the corresponding Org code:

- Indtegnes i et $x_1/x_2$-diagram, evt. med indifferentkurver.
- Kurve, der sammensætte alle de bedste løsninger $(x_1^{*},
  x_2^{*})$ ved varierende indkomst $m$.

The trouble is probably caused by my auto-fill-mode hook, but I really
cannot stand long lines, and I absolutely love auto-fill-mode.

Here is an example of the information I would like to have washed out.
The LaTeX code contains the following:
\section{Forbrugeroverskud}
\label{sec-10}
  \texttt{SCHEDULED:} \texttt{2008-12-30 ti}
\texttt{CLOCK:} [2008-12-30 ti 13:42]--[2008-12-30 ti 15:47] =  2:05

Here is the corresponding Org code:
 * DONE Forbrugeroverskud
   SCHEDULED: 2008-12-30 ti
 CLOCK: [2008-12-30 ti 13:42]--[2008-12-30 ti 15:47] =  2:05

I have (setq org-export-with-timestamps t) btw.
With #+OPTIONS: :nil time stamps are still present (after refreshing
and re-exporting).

Another thing on LaTeX Export: Why so much \texttt{}? Org stamps (and
tags) such as CLOSED are written with \texttt{}. I am not sure why.

On check boxes: Can their look be customized? I would rather use
\CheckedBox and \Square from the Wasysym package. It is LaTeX so there
is no reason to use ASCII persudo boxes (IMO, of course). 

Long post. Sorry.

[Orgmode] LaTeX Export

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hello,
I have got two questions.
I am using Org-mode v. 3.16c. I usually use LaTeX but Org has been
really nice. However, I want to export to LaTeX.
Two features are bugging me though.
  1. Timestambs are really nice, but I don't want them in my final
 print (the LaTeX output). Is there an easy way to remove these? 
  2. The interpretation of $ is probably nice for American but for me
 it creates a lot of undesirable results, since a lot of math is
 not recognized as math for unknown reasons. It would be nice to
 be able to turn the $-feature off [1]. When I need a $-sign I
 would much rather use \$. Maybe the universal currency-symbol ¤
 could be used as a replacement, if the user desire.

If either of these are already possible I appoligize. I was not able
to find an answear to my questions in the manual.

[1] To avoid conflicts with currency specifications, 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 between, and if the
 closing '$' is followed by whitespace or punctuation. 
 --From the Org manual.

Thanks,
Rasmus
