[O] Using a simpler link syntax in org-mode?
I'd like to have links with the syntax [[foo bar]] go to files with the name foo bar.org. This would make using org-mode much more like using a personal local wiki. Is this possible without breaking existing link functionality? I'd also ideally still be able to export to html, etc. with standard org-mode tools. The best I've been able to do is something like: (setq org-link-abbrev-alist '((o . file:%s.org))) This lets me use the syntax [[o:foo bar]], but that is more verbose, and looks distractingly ugly inline. For example: The quick brown o:fox jumps over the o:lazy_dog. And `[[o:foo bar][foo bar]]` is even more verbose to type and edit (though it reads fine in org modde). FYI, I was asked to crosspost this from stackoverflow at http://stackoverflow.com/q/21085720/1137803 (I waited several weeks with no answer; I hope that is appropriate) Regards - Aviv

[O] verbatim and apostrophes
Hello, I want to generate some verbatim/code inline text that contains an apostrophe (I want to talk about the ocaml type 'a ref). Unfortunately I don't know how to do this. I tried: - ~'a ref~ - ='a ref= - ~\' a ref~ - =\'a ref= The first two display everything (including the '~' or '=') but not as code, the last two work but display the backquote. I feel like I'm missing something obvious. Could someone enlighten me? Thanks, Alan
[O] Using checkboxes
Hello, I'm using org-8.2.5h that I have unpacked in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp and then ran make and make install. I have a test .org file which is made of: - [ ] test1 - [ ] test2 Positionning the curosr on the first line and doing C-c C-c reports that C-c C-c is undefined. Also, the sides of the boxes are in the same font as the rest of the text. What coudl be worng ? This seems a very basic feature. Thanks.

Re: [O] Using a simpler link syntax in org-mode?
you can kind of achieve this with yasnippet. I made this below: # -*- mode: snippet -*- # name: simple-link # key: sl # -- [[$1.org][$1] to use it, you type sl, press tab, type in the file, and then tab ], and you get your link. that may be better than typing everything out, if you remember sl for simple link, and press tab. I tried to not have the trailing ] typed in, but as soon as you type a character org shrinks the link and it does not behave as you want. As an alternative, consider writing a short emacs function that inserts what you want. (defun sl (link) (interactive sLink: ) (insert (format [[%s.org][%s]] link link))) Now you type M-x sl then enter the link in the minibuffer. What you want probably isn't feasible. How do you differentiate [[foo bar]] from a file and a heading in the current file?

[O] Citation links pointing to .pdf file - zotero-bibtex-org-oxbibtex-(ebib?) [[cite:
Hi all,
I just found out that link-format export in the ox-bibtex exporter goes
via ebib.
My workflow goes pretty much by managing my bibliography and exporting
via autozotbib to a .bib file, and citing in my org drafts so far via
the \citep{} etc. commands. the link form ([cite:]) also works.
However, the link, if clicked itself in the orgfile, opens ebib.
I found these link definitions, but I want something slightly different:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html#sec-17_2
Now I would be a happy camper if I could just click on the link and open
the pdf in the org file, while in the exported document, the link would
point to the bibliograpy, as now correctly happens...
Is it possible to define citep, citet, etc.. links to get this behaviour
done? I noticed that ebib doesn't even open the files from zotero due to
the format zotero outputs the files.
The zotero format can include various files in one entry, starts with
the full filename (which includes spaces), is separated by a colon, then
gives the full filename, and, after a semicolon, starts over for the
next attached file (e.g. for various pdfs, supp information, etc)
so the bibtex entry reads:
file = {author and author -
titleisshortenediftolong.pdf:/home/user/Zotero/storage/somethingsdfawer/author
and author - titleisshortenediftolong.pdf:application/pdf;another
file:/home/user/Zotero/storage/somethingelsezxdfce/html file or some
other.pdf:}
I guess in the case of several files there is no surefire way to
identify the correct file, but its reasonable to assume it should be the
first full path name including the authors name and ending in .pdf
so, would it be easier to just define custom links that hack-parse the
.bib file to get the right filename, without ebib? what would such a
custom link look like?
thanks a lot,
tristan
[O] ox-md generates .html links to other org files.
When exporting org files to .md files using the ox-md.el backend, links like [[file:other-file.org]] are translated to other-file.html. I would expect this to be other-file.md instead. As it stands exporting multiple files to markdown doesn't allow easy interlinking between them. This can be worked around by defin-ing: +BEGIN_SRC :html-extension md +END_SRC in the exporting project. But I think this should be fixed in the =org-md-link= function. I am using the following versions GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2013-03-17 on MARVIN Org-mode version 8.2.5h (8.2.5h-19-g0ceb68-elpa @ c:/Users/a156712/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20140210/) Regards, Mark

Gregor Zattler writes: I never used a terminal emulator which would let me use Shift-Control key combos. Actually I would be very interested in working Shift-Ctrl key combos. I'm not sure when and where I've had that working or I may be misremembering another combination. In any case, in konsole Ctrl-Shift-. is a Hotkey and can be mapped to Ctrl-:, so whatever application uses the terminal never gets to see that combo anyway. Similarly in GNOME a lot of the Ctrl-Shift plane is taken up by standard shortcuts (which you will have to disable first). In any case, to make it work you'd need to switch the terminal mode so that it communicates the modifier keys out-of-band (as CSI escape sequences AFAIK) to the application. There's no way to have it in normal mode and be able to send Ctrl-Shift anything since there simply aren't any codings for this. In XTerm this can be controlled via the modifyKeys resource IIRC. There are other modes like the old X10 terminal mode that synthesize key events, too. You are able to type C-: in an emacs running in a terminal emulator? Right now, no.

I just re-read how gaplength and gapduration work, and you'll need new
mapping of the :property: value to the output format so it ends up in

A non-nil optional argument ASYNC means the process should happen asynchronously. The resulting file should be accessible through the `org-export-stack' interface. When optional argument SUBTREEP is non-nil, export the sub-tree at point, extracting information from the headline properties first. When optional argument VISIBLE-ONLY is non-nil, don't export contents of hidden elements. When optional argument BODY-ONLY is non-nil, only write code between \body\ and \/body\ tags. EXT-PLIST, when provided, is a property list with external parameters overriding Org default settings, but still inferior to file-local settings. Return output file's name.

Re: [O] [PATCH] Allow passing post-process to org-publish-org-to for use by org-export-to

If you look at `org-latex-publish-to-pdf' you will see that publishing is done differently: the binary file is generated, then published as an attachment. Hi Nicolas, Thanks so much for your help.

[O] Emacs Mac Port
Hey guys, If you are on a Mac, you *should* start using this: https://github.com/railwaycat/emacs-mac-port I've been having some serious issues with the vanilla Cocoa Emacs lately on Mavericks, including a nasty memory leak that would somehow trigger distnoted and put the CPU usage at 100% every hour or so. Besides being quite stable, it has some nice usability improvements made specifically to make Emacs integrate better with OSX. My orgmode experience has been much better since I started using it! Thought I'd share :) Cheers, Marcelo.
Re: [O] copy title text string from #+TITLE field?
Thanks. I do need it only on export, but even so, it doesn't seem to be
working:
http://i.imgur.com/1tMGaHz.png
Again, it's inside an HTML code block. Not sure if there's a way to make it
work inside that block?
#+BEGIN_HTML
...
div class=page-header
h1{{{title}}}/h1
/div
...
#+END_HTML
{{{title}}} should do it. See
(info (org) Macro replacement)
Actually, I'm not sure it will do: macro replacement takes place during
export, so it may or may not be enough, depending on what you really
want to do.
[O] Documentation error/bug regarding checkboxes
According to the footnote [3] on http://orgmode.org/manual/Checkboxes.html, if I press C-u C-c C-c on the first item of a list, all items on that list will get checkboxes. However only the first one does. Evgeni

Re: [O] Documentation error/bug regarding checkboxes
Oops! I hit C-u C-c C-c in the wrong buffer! I meant to say, Can you provide some information about your org version? I just tried C-u C-c C-c on the following list and it worked as documented. + foo + bar + baz I am using the current maint branch.

org-emphasis-regexp-components
Thank you for the suggestion. I'm trying to make sense of it:
--8---cut here---start-8---
org-emphasis-regexp-components is a variable defined in `org.el'.
Its value is ( ('\{ - .,:!?;'\)}\\
,\' . 1)
Documentation:
Components used to build the regular expression for emphasis.
This is a list with five entries. Terminology: In an emphasis string
like *strong word* , we call the initial space PREMATCH, the final
space POSTMATCH, the stars MARKERS, s and d are BORDER characters
and trong wor is the body. The different components in this variable
specify what is allowed/forbidden in each part:
pre Chars allowed as prematch. Beginning of line will be allowed too.
post Chars allowed as postmatch. End of line will be allowed too.
border The chars *forbidden* as border characters.
body-regexp A regexp like . to match a body character. Don't use
non-shy groups here, and don't allow newline here.
newline The maximum number of newlines allowed in an emphasis exp.
You need to reload Org or to restart Emacs after customizing this.
--8---cut here---end---8---
I see that body-regexp is . so the problem is not from there. I also
see that ' is forbidden as a border character, which should be fine in
my case as I'm using ~. So is the problem that ' is both in prematch
and postmatch? But in my case I use it as a body character.
So I'm afraid I don't understand why the ' in ~'a ref~ is not accepted
as a body character, and what I should do to make sure it is.
Thanks,
Alan
