[Orgmode] Strange tag search behavior
The test file shown below produces strange behavior when doing a tag search. This behavior is described after the file. The Org-Mode version is 6.29trans on GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.14.4) of 2009-08-01 on leucaena, modified by Debian. -- * Grades ** Student 1 :student1: *** Homework :homework: |--+---+---+---+---+---| | Homework | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | |--+---+---+---+---+---| | | | | | | | |--+---+---+---+---+---| *** *** Attendance:attendance: x = did not attend |+---+---+---+---+---| | Attendance | | | | | | |+---+---+---+---+---| | Day| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | || | | | | | |+---+---+---+---+---| *** ** Student 2 :student2: *** Homework :homework: |--+---+---+---+---+---| | Homework | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | |--+---+---+---+---+---| | | | | | | | |--+---+---+---+---+---| *** *** Attendance:attendance: x = did not attend |+---+---+---+---+---| | Attendance | | | | | | |+---+---+---+---+---| | Day| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | || | | | | | |+---+---+---+---+---| *** ** Student 3 :student3: *** Homework :homework: |--+---+---+---+---+---| | Homework | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | |--+---+---+---+---+---| | | | | | | | |--+---+---+---+---+---| *** *** Attendance:attendance: x = did not attend |+---+---+---+---+---| | Attendance | | | | | | |+---+---+---+---+---| | Day| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | || | | | | | |+---+---+---+---+---| *** ** Student 4 :student4: *** Homework :homework: |--+---+---+---+---+---| | Homework | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | |--+---+---+---+---+---| | | | | | | | |--+---+---+---+---+---| *** *** Attendance:attendance: x = did not attend |+---+---+---+---+---| | Attendance | | | | | | |+---+---+---+---+---| | Day| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | || | | | | | |+---+---+---+---+---| *** -- To see the strange behavior, do the following.

Re: [Orgmode] Strange tag search behavior
Carsten Dominik wrote: Hi Scott, this has to do with the fact that these searched create a view as compact as possible, and do not unhide the headline after a matching line. So this leave an invisibility overlay just after the exposed headline and table. The TAB causes a table-realignment, and the process of deleting and resinserting the table then causes problems. I have fixed this problem now, but watch out for other related issues. One way to avoid these inconsistent states it to turn on `org-show-following-heading'. Thanks Carsten. I'll upgrade and test. I don't really want to turn on org-show-following-heading because I don't like the way it works in some cases.

[O] LaTeX Export Packages
The package hyperref is one of the default packages listed in
org-export-latex-default-packages-alist. I want to add some options to
this package for some files but not for others.
I have tried adding the following to my file:
#+LATEX_HEADER:
\usepackage[colorlinks=true,urlcolor=blue,linkcolor=blue]{hyperref}
When I export, I get an error because hyperref appears twice in the TEX
file.
1. I don't want to edit the exported LaTeX file to add the hyperref
options.
2. I don't want to customize org-export-latex-default-packages-alist to
include the options for hyperref because I don't always want those options.
3. I don't want to delete hyperref from
org-export-latex-default-packages-alist because I might forget to add it
in some file that will be exported to LaTeX.
4. I'd rather not customize my .emacs because the options I want for
hyperref vary from file to file.
I would like some way to add options in an org-mode file to the packages
that appear in org-export-latex-default-packages-alist. Maybe something
similar to #+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS: will be possible. But this doesn't
look easy to me. Should I learn how to do publishing?

[O] mailto link problem
This might be off-topic, but there has been discussion about this issue before on this list. http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/22550 The problem is that the above discussion doesn't solve my problem. So here it is. On my old system (Ubuntu 10.04, Emacs 23.3, Org-Mode 7.8.02, default browser Firefox, default mail client Thunderbird), I could click on a mailto link in an org file and Firefox would open up Thunderbird. I could then put in the message and send it via Thunderbird. No problems. On my new system (Xubuntu 11.10, Emacs 24.0.92.1, Org-Mode 7.8.02, default browser Firefox, default mail client Thunderbird), an Emacs window in message-mode is opened when I click on a mailto link in an org-mode file. This is not what I want, I want the behavior to be like it was in my old system. My old system just worked without me customizing any variables. I didn't change org-follow-link, org-link-mailto-program, mail-user-agent, etc. I didn't mess around with /etc/mailcap or other stuff. The Emacs variables on my new system are identical to those I used with my old system and the html stuff in /etc/mailcap looks identical. I don't understand why the two systems behave differently. Please don't suggest that I switch to Gnus or something. I don't have time to switch, Thunderbird is easy to set up, it handles HTML well, it reads feeds nicely, and I use the External Editor plug-in (http://globs.org/articles.php?pg=2lng=en) and emacsclient to write my email using Emacs (as I am doing now). I keep my email addresses in org files and I would like to be able to just click on a mailto link to connect to Thunderbird instead of doing a kill and yank routine.

In particular, check if browse-url-mailto-function is set: if it is, try setting it to nil and see if that gets things back on track (not tested, not guaranteed). Setting browse-url-mailto-function to nil worked. That must be a new variable for Emacs 24. At least it isn't in the browse-url group of Emacs 23.3. Its default value is emacs-mail. Thanks a bunch, I only spent most of today trying to figure out this issue. Scott

I'd never thought about running Firefox from the command line. Scott

Re: [O] Org expert mode?
On 03/10/2011 05:05 AM, Bastien wrote: So I naturally thought of something like an Org Expert mode: when turned off, the UI would *not* give access to complex features and perhaps display more helpful messages on simple ones; when turned on, Org would have a less verbose UI (think of the C-c C-e window, do we really want to *read* it all the times?) and give access to all the complex features. While I don't consider myself to be an org-mode expert, I have been using it for several years to keep track of appointments, make web pages, take notes, and record grades. I've never found things like the C-c C-e window to be a problem even though 99% of the time I'll do something like C-c C-e h without looking at the window. But I appreciate that window the 1% of the time I do look at it because it shows me that there are features available that might be useful in the future. The window provides an easy opportunity for learning and exploration. If there is a basic mode that somehow hides complex features, then some users may never become aware of those features and what they might do with those features. I've discovered so much because nothing in org-mode is hidden or separated. The manual provides an excellent introduction for new users and it allows them to decide which features they wish to start with, which features they can ignore, and which features they might want to learn about in the future. I think everything should be turned on by default. It is easier for an expert to figure out how to turn something off than it is for the non-expert to turn something on. And I've never found a feature that I don't use getting in the way of my work. Scott Randby
[O] HTML Export Broken
I just upgraded to org-mode 7.5 and I'm encountering a weird problem. Suppose I have the following text in a file. This is a @btest@/b of tags. This is a @banother test of tags. If I do C-c C-e h on this file, I get the following HTML code. pThis is a @lt;btest/b of tags. /p p This is a banother test of tags. /p It appears that org-mode is converting only the last @tag that appears in a line into an HTML tag.

[O] Another HTML Export Question
The org files I export to HTML contain the following: * COMMENT Setup #+OPTIONS: H:3 num:nil skip:nil toc:t author:t With org-mode 7.4, this setup would give me the following postamble: div id=postamble p class=date Date: 2011-03-12 16:09:53 EST/p p class=creatorHTML generated by org-mode 7.4 in emacs 23/p /div With org-mode 7.5, I get this postamble: div id=postamble p class=creatorOrg version 7.5 with Emacs version 23/p a href=http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer;Validate XHTML 1.0/a /div 1. There is no timestamp with org-mode 7.5. I want a timestamp and I can't get a timestamp by putting timestamp:t in the options line. 2. I want to get rid of the link for the validator. I can't find mention of this in the manual. 3. How do I change the text of the creator line? Honestly, I've never had so many problems with an upgrade of org-mode. I'm going back to 7.4 until HTML export is fixed and explained clearly in the manual. Scott Randby

Thanks to everyone for their help. But there is one remaining issue -- I can't get timestamps in the postamble. First, I am using org-mode release_7.5.41.g187b. In my document, I have the following: #+OPTIONS: H:3 num:nil skip:nil toc:t author:t timestamp:t email:t creator:t I looked through the export variables for anything that mentioned timestamps and the following now appears in my .emacs: '(org-export-html-with-timestamp t) '(org-export-time-stamp-file t) '(org-export-with-timestamps t) But when I do C-c C-e h on the document, the author, email, and creator appear in the postamble, but no timestamp. I can get the timestamp if I put the following in my .emacs (following the instructions given by Nick Dokos): (setq org-export-html-postamble p class=\author\Author: %a (%e)/p\np class=\date\Date: %d/p\np class=\creator\Generated by %c/p\n) However, I would rather have the above in my document instead of my .emacs, but Nick says he can't get that to work.

Re: [O] Another HTML Export Question
Hi Bastien, 1. There is no timestamp with org-mode 7.5. I want a timestamp and I can't get a timestamp by putting timestamp:t in the options line. Fixed now. Yes, it works now. Thanks. 2. I want to get rid of the link for the validator. I can't find mention of this in the manual. I added a subsection about exporting the HTML preamble and postamble, and I mention `org-export-html-validation-link' there. This clears things up. 3. How do I change the text of the creator line? You cannot. Bummer. Honestly, I've never had so many problems with an upgrade of org-mode. I'm going back to 7.4 until HTML export is fixed and explained clearly in the manual. Let me know if it is. Also, if you can help make the manual clearer, that would be appreciated. I have been planning to go through the entire manual. I hope to get to that this summer. The timestamps are fixed, but there are two new issues. First, I get weird HTML in the postamble for the email address. With org-mode release_7.5.43.gdf38 I get the following when I export: p class=emaila href=mailto:a href=mailto:sran...@gmail.com;sran...@gmail.com/alt;a href=mailto:sran...@gmail.com;sran...@gmail.com/agt;/p I used to get (with 7.4): p class=author Author: Scott P. Randby a href=mailto:sran...@gmail.com;lt;sran...@gmail.comgt;/a /p I think the code for the email line should be: p class=emaila href=mailto:sran...@gmail.com;lt;sran...@gmail.comgt;/a/p The second issue is that the following now appears at the end of my HTML documents: br/br/hr/p!-- hhmts start -- !-- hhmts end --/p This appears to have something to do with the org-export-html-html-helper-timestamp variable. If I change that variable to an empty string, then I don't get the code (of course). However, it seems to me this code shouldn't appear unless the user wants it to appear. It didn't appear when I was using version 7.4. Scott Randby

[O] Links and visual-line-mode
This is a problem that has been bugging me for some time because I use visual-line-mode a lot when I'm working on my org-mode files. Say I have visual-line-mode turned on when I'm editing an org-mode file. If I do C-c C-l, put in the link address, hit Enter, put in a description, and hit Enter, then the long lines in the document are no longer wrapped even though (Org Wrap) still appears on the mode line. The only way I've been able to get wrapping back is to do M-x visual-line-mode twice (which is just leaving the mode and then bringing it back. This is very inconvenient, especially when I want to enter several links. Is this a bug or is there an easy way to remind Emacs that it is in visual-line-mode and that it should wrap long lines?

Yes, with pop-up-windows set to nil, I can reproduce it too. The problem is that truncate-lines is set to t inside org-insert-link. When I comment that out, I get the behavior you expect. The question is: why is truncate-lines set to t? I don't know the answer to that, but it seems to be unnecessary: I think it could be let-bound instead or explicitly reset to its former value afterwards. I will set pop-up-windows to t for now, but I hope the matter is investigated further to see if truncate-lines must be set to t in org-insert-link or if the code can be changed as you suggest. Thanks for your help. Scott The problems described by Samuel in the link you provided may be caused by the same setting, but I haven't looked in detail. Nick

I've been playing around with Pandoc, and I've found that its ability to convert LaTeX to docx is rather limited. While it will convert equations and mathematical expressions reasonably well, it is not able to convert arrays that use things such as \hline or other formatting commands. This isn't surprising to me, but it means that arrays with special formatting need to be altered before using Pandoc. Scott Randby

For reasons I won't go into here, I cannot have the table of contents displayed on one side of the page. If I use ftoc:t, then the table of contents will always be displayed at the top which is not what I need. What I need is for the title to be independent of the table of contents. 2. I like the idea of having the title always visible in info-view-mode. However, others may not. Is it possible to add a title display option to the code? That way the user could decide which option to use. Maybe something like this: To always display the title in info-view-mode, add the following to the org file: #+INFOJS_OPT: infotitledisplay:always To never display the title in info-view-mode, add the following to the org file: #+INFOJS_OPT: infotitledisplay:never To only display the title above the table of contents in info-view-mode, add the following to the org file: #+INFOJS_OPT: infotitledisplay:top I think the default should be either infotitledisplay:always or infotitledisplay:top with my preference being infotitledisplay:always. In plain-view-mode it makes sense to me to have the title at the top, I don't see any need to have title display options for this mode.

[Orgmode] Tag Searches
Hi, Whenever a tag search is done, the beginning of the lines containing the desired tags are highlighted (in yellow with my setup). I can see why this is desired behavior, but I don't want my tag searches to highlight anything. First, I don't like the way the highlighting looks, and second, the highlighting forces me to do C-u C-c C-c twice if I want to recompute the values in a table. Being lazy, I only want to do C-u C-c C-c once. So, is there a way to set org-mode so that it won't highlight the results of a tag search? I've tried customizing various variables, but nothing I've tried works, and I can't find anything about this in the manual. Oh yes, I'm using org-mode 6.23 in emacs 22 though this has been an issue for me all the versions of org-mode I've used.

[O] Org Community
Last September, I attended a talk given by the lead developers of a prominent free software project. One of the developers spoke about the importance of maintaining a friendly community that does not drive people away. In particular, the developer emphasized that the community is more important than the code. The org community has been wonderful since I've started using org. My questions on even the most basic matters have been answered with respect and clarity. Even though I'm a mere user of org, I've never hesitated to participate in a discussion on the mailing list. However, I am concerned about the future of org. There is one individual who is poisoning the atmosphere by engaging in unfair and unfounded name calling that simply should not be included in messages to this list. Now this person wants to take some of their contributions out of org. The developer of the talk I attended called this tactic hostage taking and said that it is better for the community to let hostage takers go their own way. The project and community are more important than the code. The code can be written by others, or the community can decide to go in a different direction. Giving in to hostage takers leads to more hostage taking and the decline of the project. Many of the users of org find it to be irreplaceable. We don't want to see org fall apart because of dissension in the community. I'm not saying that we shouldn't have dissent and disagreement. No, those are essential for a vigorous and healthy project. It is hateful and untruthful personal attacks that we should not accept no matter how significant the code contributions of those making the attacks. Scott Randby

[O] Customizing Org 8.0 Export
First, I am using Org version 8.0.3-140-g84bae8.
I'm having some weird customization issues that I don't know how to
resolve.
When Emacs is started, not all the org variables are visible or
available for customization. Here is an example involving HTML export
customization.
1. Start Emacs
2. M-x customize-group org-export-html
- None of the org-html variables appear on the list.
3. M-x customize-variable org-html-head
- Changes to org-export-html-head
4. Open up an org file to export to HTML
5. C-c C-e h h
6. M-x customize-group org-export-html
- Now the org-html variables appear
7. M-x customize-variable org-html-head
- Works
I can live with the above behavior, but I have a problem when it comes
to customizing LaTeX export.
1. In a manner similar to the org-html variable situation described
above, variables such as org-latex-classes are not available for
customization when Emacs is started. One must do C-c C-e l p on an
org file to make these variables available.
2. I want to put the following in my init.el:
(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
'(notesclass
\\documentclass{article}
(\\section{%s} . \\newsection{%s})
(\\subsection{%s} . \\newsubsection{%s})))
But when I do, I get the following on startup:
Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading
`/home/srandby/.emacs.d/init.el':
Symbol's value as variable is void: org-latex-classes
To ensure normal operation, you should investigate and remove
the cause of the error in your initialization file. Start
Emacs with the `--debug-init' option to view a complete error
backtrace.
This means I cannot put the above code in my init.el file where I
want it to be.
Is there any way to make all of org's variables available for
customization on startup?

I have been to the org-8.0.html page before, but I only read part of it. If I would just read through all these nice pages, then there would be no problem setting things up. But my approach to Emacs and org is rather haphazard --- I pick up those things I need and ignore all the rest. My init.el file is a sorry mess.

[O] LaTeX export question
Whenever I export an org file to LaTeX, the LaTeX file always gives me
these lines in the preamble right before \begin{document} (name these
lines Block 1):
\hypersetup{
pdfkeywords={},
pdfsubject={},
pdfcreator={}}
I'd like Block 1 to not appear when I export because I give values to
its options in my org file as follows:
#+LATEX_HEADER: \hypersetup{pdfauthor={Scott}, pdftitle={Title},
pdfsubject={Subject}, pdfkeywords={Key}, pdfproducer={Emacs Org},
pdfcreator={Creator}}
The above header is exported properly, but it appears before Block 1 in
the preamble of the LaTeX file which means its values are overridden by
the values of Block 1. Hence no keywords, subject, or creator in the
resulting PDF unless I edit the LaTeX file and delete Block 1.
How do I stop the appearance of Block 1 when I export an org file to
LaTeX? I'd rather not be forced to edit the LaTeX file before I make a
PDF.

I just discovered some weird behavior.

Re: [Orgmode] Bastien is going to become the maintainer of Org mode in January
When I first started using org-mode, the way I do my work became more efficient and much easier. Now, if I want to do something new, I first take a look at the org-mode manual to see if I can use org-mode to do the new thing. I haven't been able to fit org-mode into everything, but I haven't given up trying. Carsten, thank you so much for developing and maintaining org-mode. Not only is it an utterly great piece of software, but the community around it is very friendly and open, something which I credit to you. Every time I've sent a ridiculous question to the mailing list, I've received a polite and helpful response. On other lists, the response would have been RTFM. Bastien, I think org-mode will be in very fine hands when you take over. It is clear to me that under your leadership org-mode will continue to improve for a long time to come. Scott Randby On 11/15/2010 06:51 AM, Carsten Dominik wrote: Dear all, after 7 years of responsibility for Org-mode, it is time for me to let go and step down as the maintainer of Org-mode.

I am proud of this creation and extremely grateful for the opportunity to work with the absolutely outstanding community around it. But the day-to-day responsibilities have worn me down, and I need to step back, move on, and focus on other things. I am very excited that I have found Bastien Guerry willing to take over. Bastien has been involved with this project almost from the beginning and I believe he knows more about both the spirit and the technicalities of Org-mode than anybody else. I am sure he will do an excellent job. There is a core of very knowledgeable and great people who carry the project together. I hope very much that everyone will be helping out Bastien just like you have all helped me - then this will be a very smooth transition. As a formal date for the transition we have picked January 1st 2011. Until then, I will spend time to clean up where I can, and to document the maintainer tasks in the new README_maintainer file in the git repo. On January 1st I will also switch the Donate button on the web page to point to an account owned by Bastien, to help him offset any costs involved with his contribution of time and money (like the web server that he has been sponsoring so far). If you always wanted to throw a donation in my direction but have not found the right moment to do so - this is still possible until the end of December. I am not going to disappear from the project. I will still be on the mailing list, answering questions when I can, and contribute code and fixes when I find time to do so. Maybe, with the daily tasks taken off my hands, I will even be able to write bigger chunks of code.

Since I visit my init file through a custom command (which finds it and turns on orgstruct), I don't need to use file local variables for that - I just need a command to do it. So: how do I (programmatically, in elisp) collapse the view of an orgstruct .el file? Try 'org-overview'. Both, 'org-overview' and 'show-all' work with outshine too, so they should work with org-struct. I also transformed my 3657 lines of init.el to OrgStruct. Similar to Marcin, I want to see a collapsed view of my headings when I open my init.el file. org-overview gives me a weird view of all lines that start a parenthesis on top level (defun, setq, ...) and not my top level OrgStruct comment lines. Has somebody successfully managed to get a collapsed init.el view when opening the file? Not a solution, but an alternative (and an interesting experiment): What if you try navi-mode with your orgstruct init.el? It works with outshine and with org-mode, so maybe with orgstruct too? I found this on http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html. orgstruct currently does NOT work with outorg and navi-mode... Scott Randby I always have the source file in 'show-all' mode side-by-side with its *Navi* buffer that give me the overview (and dozens of other views too). Constantly changing visibility in a file is to much action and distraction IMO, I rather have a 2nd buffer for the overview. Let me know if it works, I did not try navi-mode with orgstruct yet.

I believe that I could parallel this using org's publishing mechanism. An alternate approach would be to use one single file, since I can simply fold chapters to focus my workflow. My first concern is losing the ability to use internal links if I use separate files. Another thought is compilation time if I use one file and must always run pdflatex over the entire document. I'm sure there are pitfalls either way that I'm not yet aware of. You don't have to compile the whole document every time. You can export a subtree: C-c C-e, C-s changes the export scope.
