For this problem I've used a home-grown "org-cite.el" that uses reftex.el to format citations in author-year style. I generate the final bibliography via tex4ht and merge the two documents in an odm. This is easy with a Makefile. Later, probably after 8.3, we'll try to include citation support in Org. Rasmus -- The second rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club

Thanks for all you reply, My teacher let me give a DOC version for that only me use the emacs in our lab (So lonely, DOC dominate the most people). I finnally export as ODT and change into DOC version, it seems works well for that only no reference generate. Wish a more wisdom ODT exporter in org-mode.

I had tried that but stumbled upon a feature which confused me (and let it look as if it did not work): If there are more than one hyperlinks below the heading, I get a selection buffers which offers me to select which one to open. :-) That's really even greater than expected!

As John has already said, go with the flow and use whatever system your teacher prefers... The students in my group quickly learn that they get more useful feedback from me if they give me LaTeX or org files instead of Word! It's not because I wish to penalise them, of course. It's that I don't have Word so I get them to give me PDF to ensure the maths come through properly (libreoffice is not particularly good when it comes to mathematics). I only end up commenting indirectly on any document they give me. On the other hand, if they give me LaTeX or org, I comment directly within their documents and/or suggest changes when appropriate. -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.0.50.1, Org release_8.3beta-1147-g0e5069.dirty

Re: [O] Organizing and taming hectic Academia work (faculty viewpoint)? Tips or a good guides sought after :)
I found a happy medium working in Org, exporting to LaTeX, and then using Pandoc to convert to Word. I would send the Word and always the canonical PDF version in case some equations got messed up. This requires manually incorporating the tracked changes from Word, but I've never been a fan of just clicking "accept" on changes anyway, and don't mind the manual re-integration of comments. -k.

Re: [O] Organizing and taming hectic Academia work (faculty viewpoint)? Tips or a good guides sought after :)
Speaking as an advisor/teacher, you should do what they want if you want them to help you. You could ask if they are willing to comment on the pdf, either by hand writing on a printed version, or by pdf commenting, or maybe in the LaTeX source. But, if that is not what they want, and they cannot work with what you give them, you will not get as much feedback as you want, and you will end up creating frustration on your end and theirs. windy writes: > Another question, I am a student , I think it is a big problem that how to > exchange you article with your teacher, because the teacher will comment or > revise your article once again and again. > > However, Many teachers will not use emacs to write articles and also the pdf > file is not so convenient to do some modification, how will you deal with the > problem ? > > > > > > > > 在2015年06月09 21时21分, "John Kitchin"写道: > > you might also enjoy our youtube video: > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgizHHd7nOo > > And this one on using org-mode in teaching: > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsSMs-4GlT8&list=FLQp2VLAOlvq142YN3JO3y8w > > and > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRUCiF2MwP4 > > See http://github.com/jkitchin/jmax for my Emacs setup for > org-mode. > > My only other advice is start learning to program in emacs-lisp.

[O] How to activate (and rename) new org-tree-to-indirect-buffer buffer?
Hi Thanks to Alan Schmitt, I managed to bind C-u M-x ~org-tree-to-indirect-buffer~ but I would now like to activate and rename the new buffer. He suggested that ~(rename-buffer (org-get-heading) t)~ would rename the buffer, but it needs to be activated first. My question: how can I activate this new buffer? Along this line, it seems a little bit counter-intuitive that the new indirect buffer is *not* activated, as it is the case when editing source code blocks. The ideal solution probably would be to add this to the function, depending on a new configuration variable ~org-tree-to-indirect-buffer-activate~ which can be either nil : as it is now (the default) b : new buffer not activated B : new buffer is activated possibly even f : new buffer in new frame and *not* activated F : new buffer in new frame and activated Cheers, Rainer -- Rainer M.

This might not be org, but minted in LaTex which is formating the code blocks. I would look there if there is an option to disable the replacement of tabs with strings.

[O] source block exported with tabs replacing spaces?
Hello, I'm working on a presentation and I noticed that some of my source blocks have spaces exported as tabs. Here is an example: #+begin_src js :wrap center :results output :exports both console.log((![]+[])[+!+[]]+ (![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+ (![]+[])[+!+[]]+ ([][[]]+[])[+!+[]]) #+end_src get exported to the following latex code \begin{minted}[frame=lines,fontsize=\scriptsize]{js} console.log((![]+[])[+!+[]]+ (![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+ (![]+[])[+!+[]]+ ([][[]]+[])[+!+[]]) \end{minted} (Note the tabs instead of the 8 spaces). I have `indent-tabs-mode' set to nil in both the file and the exporter setting (I'm using the asynchronous exporter with a specified file). How can I tell org to preserve the spaces?
