That won't work.  At least you will need to load org-install.el, which
conatains all the autoload stuff that org-mode needs.  The export will
likely require some more customization of org-mode variables, so you'll
probably want to load a startup file that includes those customizations
and then a (require 'org-install).

It means the function isn't already defined and emacs doesn't know any
way to find that definition.  Which is exactly what you prevented by not
loading org-install.

Exactly what it says: the function org-in-block-p is not defined anywhere.

Generally speaking, just loading org.el is *not* the way to initialize
org. I have a minimal.emacs which looks like this:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
;;; -*- mode: emacs-lisp -*-
;;; constant part
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/src/emacs/org/org-mode/lisp"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name 
"~/src/emacs/org/org-mode/contrib/lisp"))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.\\(org\\|org_archive\\|txt\\)$" . org-mode))
(require 'org-install)

(setq debug-on-error t)
(setq eval-expression-print-length nil)
(setq eval-expression-print-level nil)

(global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
(global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
--8<---cut here---end--->8---


(there is usually a "variable" part as well that is tailored for whatever
test I'm trying to do at the time). The important point is that to initialize
*my* installation of org, I have to (require 'org-install).
If you use org from git, you should have something similar. If not git, your
minimal .emacs should mimic pretty much your real .emacs (with extra
stuff stripped out). 

With that, I can export with no problems:

,
| $ emacs --batch --load=$HOME/minimal.emacs.org --eval "(setq 
org-export-headline-levels 1)" --visit=foo.org --funcall 
org-export-as-html-batch
| enabling speedbar support

[O] Batch export to html

[Vikas Rawal]

I would like to export an org file to html using a batch command. This
is the command I tried.

emacs --batch --load=$HOME/lisp/org-7.01/lisp/org.el --eval "(setq
org-export-headline-levels 1)" --visit=$HOME/file.org --funcall 
org-export-as-html-batch

But I get an error which says: 

Symbol's function definition is void: org-in-block-p

Could anyone explain what this could mean?

Thanks,

Vikas
