Re: [Orgmode] suggestion/feature-request for dynamic blocks

I was referring to the dynamic code block features of org-mode such as org-dblock-write:columnview or org-update-dblock. Such functions take a pair of lines like #+BEGIN: columnview :hlines 1 :id local :maxlevel 4 #+END: and fill them in with information automatically extracted from the org-mode file. I would like to be able to specify something like #+BEGIN: columnview :hlines 1 :id local :maxlevel 4 :dtname #+END: and have a #+TBLNAME get inserted in automatically so that I can then use org-babel to further process the results. I think things like this would be useful for all the various kinds of org-dblock-write: functions and so suggested a generic library for writers of org-dblock-write: functions to handle things like this.

[Orgmode] proposal for enhanced org-get-priority function

[Orgmode] confusion with file search with org-links
Dear Experts,
I am a little confused about how file links are supposed to work in orgmode.
I have a link like [[file:/tmp/bug.bib::a bug][blah]] linking to a
BiBTeX file but when I try to follow it via C-c C-o it just goes to the
top of the file. Interestingly, when I open the file and set it to be in
text mode and then follow the link, org puts me to the proper place in
the file.
I suspect that org-mode is getting confused with the file search feature
when it opens a BiBTeX file.
Why do I care? I'd like to be able to use a function like the one below
to link to bib items:
(defun store-bibtex-link ()
"Make link to a bibtex entry.
Calling this function inside a BiBTeX entry will create a link to that
entry and store it so you can extract it via C-c C-l. This is useful
for making links to BiBTeX items from your org files.
"
(interactive)
(let* ((title (bibtex-autokey-get-field "title"))
(myfile (buffer-file-name))
(mylink (format "file:%s::%s" myfile title))
)
(setq org-stored-links (cons (list mylink title) org-stored-links))
(message "Stored: %s" (or title mylink))
))
An example of the bug.bib illustrating the problem is shown below
% start bug.bib
% foo
% bar
@article{me98,
title={a bug},
author={me},
journal={it},
year=1998,
}
%blah
--
Thanks,
-I.S.

If you don't want finer grained priorities, just don't add -. Personally, I vote yes because I find the priorities in TODO lists very useful. In addition, I often find that I want to insert a new item between two existing ones and therefore having fine-grained priorities makes this easy to do. -- Thanks, -I.S. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

I have not added you patch as it is, because in some ways the syntax it adds is questionable, and, as others have pointed out, sorting can be done in different ways, too. However, instead, I have introduced a variable that can be set to a user-defined function to compute the base priority of a node. So you can simply put your function into that variable and continue to use your special syntax, with us making it an official Org syntax. The name of the variable is org-get-priority-function.

[Orgmode] Is it possible to do literate programming without org-babel?
Dear Experts, I think org-babel is great and use it when I can. But on larger projects where some people are not emacs users, it may not be feasible for the master file to be an org-mode file. Do you have any suggestions on using literate programming techniques when the source code must be in a .py file? One thing I have tried is switching to org-mode when I want to write comments, create links, etc. and do that in org-mode and then switch back to python mode. This actually works reasonably well but it's annoying to switch modess. Any better ideas? -- Thanks, -I.S. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
