[O] How to build org-mode on Windows

[Pascal Quesseveur]

Hello,

I want to install latest version but I understand it relies on make to
compile. I am currently using Windows and I don't have cygwin and

The simple alternative is to simply *not* compile, this should be fast
enough for most (if not all) commands.

You use org-emphasis-alist to do simple highlighting, right?

In that case, using you should better use `font-lock-add-keywords'.

See section 2.6 Sparse trees:

  ╭
  │ An important feature of Org mode is the ability to construct _sparse
  │ trees_ for selected information in an outline tree, so that the entire
  │ document is folded as much as possible, but the selected information is
  │ made visible along with the headline structure above it(1).  Just try
  │ it out and you will see immediately how it works.
  │
  │Org mode contains several commands creating such trees, all these
  │ commands can be accessed through a dispatcher:
  │
  │ `C-c /' (`org-sparse-tree')
  │  This prompts for an extra key to select a sparse-tree creating
  │  command.
  ╰

It will help to "expand" all entries which contain a certain keyword (see `C-c
/ /') and "collapse" all others. Though, it won't help for tagged entries:
their contents won't be opened automatically by doing `C-c / m' (match for a
tag).

Anyway, `C-c /' is a very interesting (set of) commands to know!

Best regards,
  Seb

E.g. you can do this to highlight ♩ with '(:weight
ultra-bold :background "#FFBF1E") :

(font-lock-add-keywords
 'org-mode
 '(("♩" (0 '(:weight ultra-bold :background "#FFBF1E") t

"♩" is actually a regular expression, so you can use [♩©] to highlight
both ♩ and ©.

0 means to highlight the entire matching text.

[O] Unable to finalize capture

[Dror Atariah]

It seems like after the last update I've made to org-mode the capturing of 
notes does not work properly. Currently I have version 8.0.7 (20130930) from 
the ELPA. Hitting C-c c (i.e. org-capture) brings the list of capture templates 
and then I can choose one of them to open a buffer where I can actually entry 
the note. The problem is that once I'm done, hitting C-c C-c doesn't close the 
capturing buffer. The content is saved in the right place but I'm not returned 
to the place where I started the capturing. In the *Messages* buffer I get the 
following error: org-capture-finalize: Symbol's value as variable is void: 
org-bookmark-names-plist

I don't really know where to start debugging this problem. Any ideas?

I believe the following are all the related setting that I have:

(define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture)

Re: [O] ob-clojure.el alternative using nrepl

[Oleh]

Thanks, Eric.

Your changes work.

Still, I think that it's needed to require ob-tangle.
It defines the variable `org-babel-tangle-lang-exts' that ob-clojure
wants to modify right at loading. So it's impossible to load ob-clojure
unless ob-tangle was already loaded.

Just to clarify, this code will work:

(setq org-babel-tangle-lang-exts nil)
(require 'ob-clojure)

whereas

(require 'ob-clojure)

will not.

Oleh

Not with font-lock-add-keywords, which I think is just for one-liner
highlights (as the name suggests.)

There might be other solutions, but it's definitely more complicated,
sorry I can't dive into this now.

I don't want to use Cygwin either, but a great alternative is MingW or

Unfortunately, there is no simple recipe to try it out. Just use Org
and, if you notice something suspicious, disable cache and try again.
FYI, most sensitive cache operations happen when a headline, a block or
a drawer in inserted, modifier or deleted.

Thanks for testing it.

Re: [O] [RFC] Simple cache mechanism for `org-element-at-point'

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Nicolas,

this sounds like a great idea.  I have not yet had the time to
test it - but I would like to bring forward two basic worries.
Maybe you have comments on them?

1. Updating on buffer modification hooks sounds like a very
   demanding process.  You basically add a third expensive process
   in addition to font locking and org-indent-mode.  My worry is
   that this might be very heavy on Emacs and slow down fast workers.
   Again, I did not try it, just a worry

2. Do you expect this to be stable enough to deal with buffers that
   are invalid in some way or another?  Are there any situations in
   which the parser could fail and leave some weird state behind?

3. Can you explain what you mean by "except in headline-only commands?

Thank you!

Yup, it's pretty much the exact same thing, just with a different
regexp.

(font-lock-add-keywords
 'org-mode
 '(("\\(♩[^♩]+♩\\)" (0 '(:weight ultra-bold :background "#FFBF1E") t

You can use "♩\\([^♩]+\\)♩" instead, if you only want the text between
the symbols to be highlighted.

It might be a good idea to somehow limit the number of newlines that
the regexp can match, I'm not sure.

Yours,
Eric

[O] How to specify complex HTML pre/postamble in the Org file?

[Yujie Wen]

Hi,

  I am just wondering how to specify some complex HTML pre/postamble
contents in the Org file.

  As the document saying, HTML pre/postamble contents can be given by
either setting string values to emacs variables
org-html-preamble/postamble, or setting #+OPTIONS: html-preamble/postamble:.

  I prefer the pre/postamble contents being specified in the same Org file,
so I tried "#+OPTIONS: html-preamble/postamble". It works fine until the
contents became a HTML string that contains double quote marks, which cause
a parse error during exporting. I tried some escaping like:

#+OPTION: html-preamble: "Headings"

but it didn't solve the parse error.

  Any suggestion on specifying HTML pre/postamble contents within the same
Org file?

Regards,
Yujie

Great, I think I will go by this way…

I presume, I can set "org-export-filter-options-functions" as a
directory-local variable, so that this kind of export restrictions
only applies to Org mode documents in the specific project.

Do I understand correctly, that this code adds all *other* backends to
the "exclude-tags" setting, instead of adding the current one to
"select-tags"?  Is there a specific reason to do this?

Just adding "backend" to "select-tags" seems simpler to me, and I
wonder whether "exclude-tags" even behaves correctly for headlines
with more than one tag.  As far as I understand the Org manual, it
would exclude headlines tagged as ":html:latex:" when exporting to
"html", because "latex" is added as exclude-tag, preventing the
headline from being exported.

I just did this (the conversion) recently so it was on my mind. This provides 
the week number as a string, not a number, and does based on “now,” but it 
should give you what you want.

Week number in ISO of beginning of this week based on a Monday week start:
(format-time-string "%V" (nth 0 (org-clock-special-range 'thisweek nil nil 1)))

Week number in ISO of end of this week based on a Monday week start:
(format-time-string "%V" (nth 1 (org-clock-special-range 'thisweek nil nil 1)))

[O] How does Org make TAB work on the console?

[Thorsten Jolitz]

Hi List, 

Org-mode does 

,--
| (org-defkey org-mode-map [(tab)]  'org-cycle)
`--

to bind TAB to org-cycle, and Outshine does this

,-
| (outshine-define-key-with-fallback
|  outline-minor-mode-map (kbd "")
|  (outline-cycle arg) (outline-on-heading-p))
`-

Under X11 both work, but on the console solo Org-mode's TAB key works,
Outshine's not: TAB runs 'indent-for-tab-command' then even when
'outline-on-heading.p' is true.

One would think immediatley that the macro
`outshine-define-key-with-fallback' is the culprit, but all of the
following 4 Outshine keybindings do work on the console (with prefix
'M-#' in my case):

Any idea what makes TAB work for Org-mode but not for Outshine on the

[O] org-mode based groupware wiki

[Torsten Wagner]

Hi,
recently I discovered gollumn [1] and was amazed to see that there is a
software which allows non-orgers to work with / read my org-files and which
even use git as the backend to get all save and nice together, even if
working concurrently on the same files.

I was wondering, because I never read about gollum in this ML and my search
only revealed a very short three year old thread between Bastien and Eric
Schulte. Despite that many of us was asking of possible ways how to use org
as a groupware like environment. I guess this topic was discussed even more
frequently over the last three years.
Unfortunately, the main drawback, the usage of org-ruby [2] as org-mode
parser still remains. I frighten that org-ruby only works on a small subset
of the org-mode syntax and that even this might be a bit out-of-date. As
far as I understood, org-mode in the meantime switched to a new exporter
[3] and we got org-elements [4] and a heavy work towards standardization
thanks to Nicolas Goaziou.

What would be the best way to get the best out of the gollum idea and the
new org-mode capabilities?

- Skip gollumn and use (an updated) blorgit [5] (Does it have editor
functionality?) ?
- Enhance org-ruby?
- Write a small script which creates a native html export from org-mode and
hook this into gollumn? However, that would require emacs and org-mode
being installed on the server side.

For me gollums most important feature would be that people could use their
web-browser and edit org-files. It might not be the most comfortable way of
editing a org-file but a simple adding of a row into a table or rephrasing
or adding a paragraph would be totally possible. It even might help to
introduce people into using emacs and org-mode.

It would be really nice to have such an easy access to org-files. Even
hard-core orgers might like the idea to e.g. access and lightly modify
there org-files on-the-go via smartphones and tablets without running a
full emacs session. (I am aware of Mobileorg ;) )

I got a bit into detail here to hopefully kick-off some discussions.

All the best

Torsten

Let me know if it doesn't work as desired and share your improvements.
I didn't do proper testing as I don't fully appreciate all corner
cases of the use case.


On select tag, you can use it if you like how this document works 

#+SELECT_TAGS: latex
* common intro
  test 
** html intro  :html:
   html
** latex  :latex:
   latex
* common next section

You should be able to test this in a normal org document.

The value of paragraph-separate as predefined in sendmail.el is

  (setq paragraph-separate
(concat (regexp-quote mail-header-separator)
;; This is based on adaptive-fill-regexp (presumably
;; the idea is to allow navigation etc of cited paragraphs).
"$\\|\t*[-–!|#%;>*·•‣⁃◦ ]+$"
"\\|[ \t]*[-[:alnum:]]*>+[ \t]*$\\|[ \t]*$\\|"
"--\\( \\|-+\\)$\\|"
page-delimiter))

With orgstruct-mode the value of paragraph-separate becomes

"--text follows this line--$\\| *[-–!|#%;>*·•‣⁃◦ ]+$\\|[ 
]*[-[:alnum:]]*>+[  ]*$\\|[ ]*$\\|--\\( \\|-+\\)$\\|^\f"

As one can see orgstruct-mod do not alter this variable.

Whereas with orgstruct++-mode, the initial value of paragraph-separate
(given within
sendmail.el) vanishes, and turns into

"\\(?:\\*+ \\|\\[\\(?:[0-9]+\\|fn:[-_[:word:]]+\\)\\]\\|%%(\\|

Why is that so?

org-bookmark-names-plist is defined in org.el. Try evaluating

(require 'org)

and seeing if the variable is now defined:

C-h v org-bookmark-names-plist RET

If so, the capture should work. Then you have to figure out why
org.el[c] was not loaded.

If the variable is not defined, check whether you have some old
obsolete org.el lying around:

M-x locate-library RET org RET

and

M-x list-load-path-shadows RET

should give you some clues.

Check out org-ehtml.  See the original announcement [1] and the repo on

I guess that the above output suggests that org-mode is properly installed (via

What further steps can I take?

Quoting `org-list-allow-alphabetical' docstring:

  This variable needs to be set before org.el is loaded.  If you
  need to make a change while Emacs is running, use the customize
  interface or run the following code, where VALUE stands for the
  new value of the variable, after updating it:

(when (featurep 'org-element) (load "org-element" t t))

So let-binding it cannot work.

[O] proposal for a tool to translate orgmode outlines into programs

[Isaac]

proposal for a tool to translate orgmode outlines into programs

Idea: 
a program to translate orgmode note into script/programs which can be 
used as a template/starting point for a real program after debugging, 
refactoring. 

Background and reasons: 
As I am accumulating more orgmode notes for problem solving, task 
planning, project coordination,  I think it would be nice if a tool can 
translate the orgmode (especially those problem solving ones) into programs 
(as much as it can)- at least a program skeleton, where after 
ideas(outlines) are done, we can generate a corresponding program which can 
be quickly edited/debugged/re factored/tightened up to be useful running 
programs - to facilitate problem solving and task repetition in the future.


Questions and Discussions:
1. whether this would be a worthwhile idea, or such idea has been tried 
before?

2. do we have alternative solutions?

3. if indeed this idea is interesting, what programming language it 
would e worthwhile to translate to?  
currently I am thinking more along of the line of python, as its 
indenting structure more or less resemble outlines. (though my personal take 
for writing script is in ruby, lua is another interesting choice). this 3rd 
question is what I don't know for sure, I found for me ruby is more 
productive for scripting, and python has better supports ... 
ruby could be another attractive choice - level 1 headlines maybe 
translated to a class, while other levels translate to methods ...


Welcome your comments and ideas

thanks, Isaac

(while I am doing some search, found 
1. the reverse direction of this is: https://github.com/bjonnh/PyOrgMode 
- python reading and writing orgmode, but would I would prefer is orgmode => 
python/ruby instead.
2. another candidate is tangle - but idea here is different, not to 
export codes written in orgmode, but to translate/turn orgmode text directly 
into codes.
3. an interesting node.js parser for orgmode: 
https://github.com/daitangio/org-mode-parser

Some further elaboration:
1. say if a headline is an action:
translate to def ... a function
2. say if a headline is some description:

I think this must be particular to your system.  The (defvar

this problem, and indeed does for me.

$ emacs --batch --eval "(progn (add-to-list 'load-path

Re: [O] proposal for a tool to translate orgmode outlines into programs

[Thomas S. Dye]

Aloha Isaac,

This sounds to me a lot like literate programming, which can be
accomplished in Org with very many languages, including ruby and python
(but not lua, yet).  See
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages.html. An advantage
of literate programming is that it generates documentation in addition
to the program code.

hth,
Tom

Re: [O] [RFC] Simple cache mechanism for `org-element-at-point'

[Nicolas Goaziou]

Hello,

Carsten Dominik  writes:

> 1. Updating on buffer modification hooks sounds like a very
>demanding process.

There is obviously a cost, but it shouldn't be very high. I simplified
the process in the announcement. Actually, the cache is not updated
right after each buffer modification. What happens is the following:

  - After each buffer modification, a changeset is stored in
a buffer-local variable. Building the changeset requires between
1 and 4 regexp searches between the boundaries of the change.

  - When Emacs is idle cache is updated according to that changeset (see
`org-element--cache-sync-idle-time') and the changeset is erased.

  - If a modification happens while another previous changeset is still
present, either changesets are merged into a single one (see
`org-element--cache-merge-changes-threshold'), or, in the worst
case, a cache sync is called in order to get rid of the old
changeset, and the new one is stored.

>You basically add a third expensive process in addition to font

The plan is to use `org-element-at-point' for both of them, so all three
will ultimately become only one process.

>My worry is that this might be very heavy on Emacs and slow down

It obviously needs to be tested, but I would be surprised if it happened
to be a problem, at least with a compiled Org (no clue on an uncompiled
one).

> 2. Do you expect this to be stable enough to deal with buffers that

There is nothing invalid at `org-element-at-point' level (i.e. it
shouldn't error, ever). Invalid syntax means that what the parser sees
doesn't match user's expectations. So there is, theoretically, no reason
for the parser to fail. But there are bugs, and only testing will
uncover them.

> 3. Can you explain what you mean by "except in headline-only commands?

`org-element-at-point' is meant to replace all `org-at-...'-like
functions. Calling `org-element-at-point' is like calling all of them at
the same time. It's more expensive than any of them, but returns more
data and is always correct.

But you don't need to know about context to tell if you're one
a headline or not, so `org-at-heading-p' is almost always a superior
choice (unless you need to also retrieve node properties). Likewise, if
you only need to manipulate headlines, you don't need any context
information.

[O] Small bug: No italic face when /italics/ inside a link

[William Denton]

When italics are applied to the anchor text of a link, the text is not 
italicized.  (I have org-fontify-emphasized-text set to t, so normally 
/italics/ are rendered in an italic face.)


# --- sample
Italics outside link: /[[http://orgmode.org/][Org]]/

Italics inside link: [[http://orgmode.org/][/Org/]]
# ---

When I look at it in Emacs, "Org" in the first line is in italics (no /s), but in the second line I 
see


   /Org/

as the anchor text.

When exported to HTML it is turned into  as it should, so that's fine, 
but shouldn't it show in italics in Emacs?

Aha. So how do you test things like that? This seems to be OK. Is it?

(ert-deftest org-list-item-test ()
  (with-temp-buffer
(org-mode)
(let ((fill-column 70))
  (custom-set-variables '(org-list-allow-alphabetical t))
  (insert "1. some stuff\n"
  "   a) an alphabetic list item with text longer that the current 
fill column so that it gets wrapped by fill-paragraph")
  (fill-paragraph)
  (should (not (equal (org-in-item-p) 1))


This also explains what I was seeing, as I was setting it in my init
file after org was loaded. I was lulled into a false sense of security
because some aspects of alphabetical list label work in this
circumstance.

All I need now is roman numeral list labels too :)

Thank you so much Eric

that works well apart from as you said it sometime "spills" over to other
uneeded lines. any idea of how to limit the number of newlines that
the regexp can match?

really appreciate the help

I still have no idea why the submitter does not work. However, there are
more attributes which could be used. I have added the "author" keyword
to the `org-debbugs-search' interface. This gives you all bugs, for
which you have sent an email with the given email address (or a
substring of). Patch appended.

Try

- search phrase: emacsclient
- author: fatkasuvayu

Best regards, Michael.

N.B. Never used elpa, so take with appropriately sized grain of salt.

Not sure whether this is a problem, but why is org.elc in the main
directory and not under

~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20130930/org/lisp?

Maybe you are using a left-over org.elc?

Check that your org.el does include the definition  of the variable.
Then load the uncompiled version using an explicit path:

M-x load-file RET /Users/user_name/.emacsd./elpa//org/lisp/org.el RET

*Now* is the variable defined? If so, does capture work?

I'd probably clean up the .elc files and compile anew. Then restart
emacs.

yes and no - it's literate programming, but rather than programming in orgmode 
- it's translating orgmode (thoughts) to build a skeleton of codes for code 
generation ... not sure if someone has done something similar before? it would 
be good to know.

The easiest thing would be to add a newline to the list of non-matching
characters, like this: "\\(♩[^♩\n]+♩\\)". That won't match _anything_
that goes longer than one line, though -- is that what you want? I'm
actually not sure how to make the regexp match a specific number of
newlines without things getting much more complicated...

Re: [O] AUCTeX key bindings within Org documents

[Joseph Vidal-Rosset]

Hello Fabrice, Hi everybody,

Thanks a lot Fabrice for your  package to get AUCTeX key binginds within
Org documents. 

Maybe I  do not  use it correctly  by I  want to point  out to  you some
unwanted results: 

#+begin_equation
 \label{ECQ}
\neg A , A \vdash B
\tag{ECQ}
#+end_equation

exported in LaTeX is translated in .tex file:

\begin{equation}
\label{ECQ}
$\neg{}$ A , A \vdash B
\tag{ECQ}
\end{equation} 

and of course it does not work. 

My question is therefore more  general: how writing scienfific papers in
org-mode documents  i.e. how writing useful  environments like equation,
bussproofs,   fitch,   etc.   every  useful   package   for   logicians,
mathematicians, etc.  ? 

In advance, thanks for your help. 

Jo.

Probably, this is somehow the case... I think the directory structure that you 
can see is the default one of ELPA - I don't think I tweaked it.

The file "~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20130930/org.el" contains the

Indeed, loading it manually, solved the problem.

I didn't know how to recompile the files, and what exactly do you mean by 
cleaning the .elc's; so I did something else. I removed the old directories of 
org-mode from the ELPA directory, restarted emacs and it  now seems to work 
fine.

Thanks and all the best,
