Re: [O] new export question: how to add a new option to an existing backend
Hi, Eric, You can derive a new back-end from existing ones. Please consult org export reference documentationhttp://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-export-reference.html . Yujie 2013/11/22 Eric Schulte schulte.e...@gmail.com Hi, I'd like to add a new option to the LaTeX backend from a contrib/ package so that it can be set with a #+ keyword. Is this possible? If so how would one go about making this change. If not what's the best way to add a new optional value to an existing backend (to be used by a new link exporting function and/or the org-export-before-parsing-hook). Thanks, -- Eric Schulte https://cs.unm.edu/~eschulte PGP: 0x614CA05D

It really depends on what you need. I don't get your example. What would that option do? Anyway, you can use defadvice (see ox-bibtex.el) to alter the behaviour of an existing back-end.

Hi Nicolas, Thanks! I was not aware that ox-bibtex.el existed, this accomplishes exactly the use case I had in mind. I've just pushed up two very small changes to ox-bibtex. 1. The cite link following function falls back to obe-goto-citation if ebib is not fbound, and 2. `org-bibtex-process-bib-files' is only called on HTML export, so bibtex2html is not a requirement of ox-bibtex if used for latex export only.
