I think Suvayu uncovers something interesting: how do we give a "title"
to such an admonition (note, warning, tip, sidebar, etc.)?

If we want to export our document to multiple backends, we would be
forced to have:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
  #+attr_html: :options {By the way...}
  #+attr_latex: :options {By the way...}
  #+attr_odt: :options {By the way...}
  #+begin_note
  This is a useful note (with a title).
  #+end_note
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Wouldn't it make more sense to get the title as part of the admonition,
as Suvayu tried it in his OP?

--8<---cut here---start->8---
  #+begin_note :options {By the way...}
  This is a useful note (with a title).
  #+end_note
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Best regards,

Isn't this too stylized?   Wouldn't it rather be

#+attr_html: :options "title='BTW'"
#+attr_latex: :options {BTW}
#+begin_note
This is a useful note (with a title).
#+end_note

ox-html has not restrictions on attr_html BTW.

If you have something that should be shared across identically across
backends.  For a title I guess you'd use a caption, right?  A macro would
be a quick way to allow solutions once you know the right mapping between
the option element and backend transforming.

Thanks for clarifying. Maybe I should switch to CC-BY-SA instead.
Theoretically, I wouldn't want someone to simply mirror my blog and put
ads on it. But I guess it would be fine if a link to my blog is
provided, since then the reader is then aware of the option for ad-free
posts.

On the other hand, I wouldn't want to restrict anyone from significantly
building upon my content and making money from that.

Eliminate cloning of `#+READONLY' property in the `index.org' file.
A sublists of `org-todo-keywords' don't need to contain the `|'.

But you still need to register the protocol with the browser. And that
registration step has proven problematic in the past.

[O] match on any TODO state

[Xebar Saram]

Hi
I created this function which works well.

 (defun z/org-sparse-todo ()
(interactive)
(org-match-sparse-tree t "+TODO=\"TODO\""))

my question is how can i match on ANY todo state and not just literaly TODO
ie if i have this in my org file

#+TODO: TODO(t) EXP(e) | SUBMITTED(s) K_TRACK(k) PAUSED(p) DONE(d)

how can i match it by all the todos like TODO and EXP

Untested, but it looks to me as if

(org-match-sparse-tree t)

should work.

[O] TBLFM added to updated table as result of a emacs-lisp src block

[Miguel Ruiz]

Hi,

I'm trying to make the following (modified) code works:
(https://eschulte.github.io/org-scraps/scraps/2011-08-19-updating-a-table.html)

#+name: OneTable
| 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 0 | 0 |

#+name: AnotherTable
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var table=OneTable
  (setf (nth 1 table) '(2 2 2))
  (setq table (cons 'hline table))  
  (setq table (append table '(hline)))
  (setq table (append table '(("Total"
  (setq table (append table '(("\n#+TBLFM: 
@>$>=vsum(@I$>..@>>$>)::@>$>>=vsum(@I$>>..@>>$>>)::"
  table
#+end_src

At this point, it's ok for me but I need to put :: at the end to make it 
calculates sums because the | remaining. 
I'm aware I'm appending TBLFM to the table in a not orthodox way.

Is there a canonical way I could proceed in?

TIA

Miguel Ruiz.

In the agenda match, I use TODO<>"".
That is, all TODO keywords that aren't empty.

Re: [O] evaluate TBLFM

[Charles Millar]

FWIW, the code in Miguel Ruiz's post earlier today

"TBLFM added to updated table as result of a emacs-lisp src block"

has pretty much answered my questions. Thank you, Miguel.

I'm not sure if it the most efficient or even elegant but here is what I 
came up with, so please comment and correct if there is a better way


#+Name: ATableP
#+begin_src rec data: Foo.rec :type Bar :fields date,Description,Amount 
:results silent

#+end_src
#+TBLNAME: ATable
src emacs-lisp :var table=ATableP :exports results
  (setq table (cons 'hline table))
  (setq table (cons '("Date" "Description" "Inventory") table))
  (setq table (append table '(("|Total"
  (setq table (append table '(("\n#+TBLFM: 
@>$>=vsum(@I$>..@>>$>);%.2f::"

  table
#+end_src
#+ATTR_LATEX: :environment longtable :align p{60pt}p{280pt}N{8}{2}
#+TBLNAME: SCHEDA

| 6-7   | blah| 1.00  |
| 6-8   | blah blah|2.00   |
| | Total   |3.00|

Hi,

Desired result (roughly speaking)

| date | Description | Amount|

The table is generated from a recutils data base and essentially this 
is the set up



#+Name: ATable
#+begin_src rec data: Foo.rec :type Bar :fields date,Description,Amount
#+end_src

#+TBLNAME: ATable
#+TBLFM: @>$>=vsum(@I$>..@>>$>);%.2f

I have read Using Code Blocks in Org Tables in the Worg Babel 
Introduction and searched the lists and am not sure of how to 
implement this.


At the moment I am more interested in solving the column sum problem; 
i can kludge an  added row using a dummy record in the database.

[O] Infinite loop using :post header argument that calls a emacs-lisp src block

[Charles Millar]

emacs version GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version

Org-mode version 8.3beta (release_8.3beta-1302-g00142f @

the following produces a table with header, hline, a row with TOTAl and 
#+TBLFM immediately after the table
