If I write in the documentation Cross referencing with unique IDs is hard to document do I then write ids IDs id's or ID's IDs or ids is fine. id's and ID's is possessive (the ID owns something). I'd probably use IDs in this case. id is just short for identifier normally

Hi Carsten, If you write IDs, it is correct. Please do not be misled by my having written org-id's. ID's used to be correct, but no longer. I was treating org-id as a variable, and org-ids would have been confusing. I often type in lowercase and then capitalize sentences before sending. The

Hi Paul, downloading 6.14 will not be enough, you actually need to *install* it :-) The error message you are getting shows that a very old version of Org is actually being used. You can find where these files are located by typing M-x find-library RET org-export-latex RET C-h v

You could see if uuidgen is available, and if not, fallback to an online uuid generator: http://www.famkruithof.net/uuid/uuidgen Sending a post request to that URL shouldn't be too hard. And you can extract the UUID from the first h3 element on the page. I would separate the code responsible
