To have similar things look similar and make it clear in the manual I
suggest to change the long existing

  ~/~
 Do not export this line.  Useful for lines that contain the
 narrowing `' markers or column group markers.

  Finally, just to whet your appetite [...]

to

  ~/~
 Do not export this row or column.  In the first column ~/~ means
 do not export this row which is useful for rows that contain the
 narrowing ~~ markers, column group markers or markers to not
 export a column.  In all other columns ~/~ means do not export
 this column if also the first column is marked with ~/~.  When
 the first column should not be exported move its content other
 than markers into an other column.

  When more than one marker is needed in a column put each in an own
  row with ~/~ in the first column.

[O] Special alignment in org-mode

[David Cao]

Hello,

I was wondering if there is any way to right-align the header indicators
while left-aligning the actual content. Unfortunately I haven't been able
to find any mention of such a feature online.

For example:

  * My fancy org file
 ** Header 2
Some content here
*** Header 3

Thanks in advance!

[O] pandoc-style citations

[Alex Fenton]

Hello,

I see that there were several extensive and fruitful discussions on this 
list last year on citation syntax. There seemed to be a reasonable 
degree of consensus that pandoc-style citation syntax was at the least a 
good model.


I'd like to know if there are any implementations out there of elisp to 
parse pandoc citation syntax and turn it into latex \cites. My question 
is not so much "when/if this will be in org mode" but rather whether 
there's something I can drop in now (likely as a link type).


I have a lot of longish citations with multiple references each with 
their own pre- and post- ("'blah blah blah @ref1, p.23, also @ref2, for 
a contrary view see @ref3 pp148-152") that end up as \cites. However my 
home-brew link solution, stuffing the multiple pre- and posts- with 
separator into the link description is unwieldy - difficult to write, 
hard to read and easy to get wrong or breaking output.


thanks
alex

[O] M-x cfw:open-org-calendar not working

I am following this article "Taming Google Calendar With Org-Mode" to
try to get sync going with my Google

I've installed Calfw and Org-Gcal with  the package manager. But when I
M-x cfw:open-org-calendar it does not find the command. Mx cf  only
finds cfengine.

What is the best way for me to troubleshoot this? My setup is identical

I don't think there is a possible confusion if the manual makes it
clear.

That was exactly the point, since those all apply to columns, unlike to
rows special markers. IOW, so far, columns syntax systematically uses <

Org comment syntax is related to #, not % or ;. I'd rather have similar

# in non-first columns to mean noexport of the column has the

I understand your first paragraph you want to avoid such confusion.

/ in non-first columns to mean noexport of the column as I did before
has the disadvantage of possible confusion with / in the first column
where it means noexport of the row.

<#> I find a bit too near to <5>, <, > or <>.

% or ; used for comments in LaTeX or Emacs Lisp I would find a good
space saving single character alternative. Why not % as this would not
be the first time that Org borrowed some syntax elements from LaTeX?
The glyph has also similarities to / that has a similar meaning.

Re: [O] exported table has text overflowing off the pdf page

[Eduardo Mercovich]

Dear Sharon.

>>> I'm running into problems exporting tables into latex with a 2-column
>>> 3-row table with a large amount of text to go into the cells, but when
>>> its exported the text is taking over and overflowing off the pdf page.

I'm a newbie and confronted to this same situation found this latex
options (from the org-manual, but not obvious when you don't know what
you're searching):

#+CAPTION: This is your table caption (of course, it's optional). 
#+NAME:   table:yourtableid
#+ATTR_LATEX: :environment longtable :width 1\textwidth :font \small 
\raggedright :align >{\raggedright}p{9cm} p{3cm}
| Here | comes | your | table |
|--+---+--+---|
| and  | some  | text | cells |

Let's break this into pieces:

:environment longtable
 breaks across pages if too long. 

:width 1\textwidth
 it has the width of the text block

:font \small
 assuming your latex class has a "small" font size definition,
 can be tiny, miniscule, etc. 

: \raggedright
 don't justify a few words in short width columns, looks much better

:align >{\raggedright}p{9cm} p{3cm}
 this defines the column align and width. 

Try it, see what happens and let's optimize this together. :)

Best...

You could start a new Emacs evaluating some code in a subprocess, with
`start-process' and collect return value. You may want to have a look at
`org-export-async-start' or "async.el" library in ELPA.

Unfortunately, it is not yet possible to re-use the latter in Org code,
since it is unavailable in vanilla Emacs.

The hard part, IMO, is to bring the right context in the subprocess
(e.g., the environment should be the same, other blocks may be needed,
etc.).

It sounds good, as long as it is clear this markers is for export
consumption only, and has no special effect when using the spreadsheet.

I suggest to use # or <#> instead of / so as to refer to "comment" (but
still use / as the marker for the first column).

The removal could be done in a function like
`org-export--delete-commented-rows' (see `org-export--delete-comments'
in "ox.el").

This would also require documenting it in the manual and providing
tests.

Does anyone feel like doing that?

Isn't this the job of narrowing and widening?  Though I guess this could
only show one verse block at the time.

I.e. use something like this:

(defun narrow-to-next-verse ()

(when next-elm

Nobody else has offered help yet, so I'll take a shot.  What exactly are
your "ids"?  Do you mean you have headlines with assigned CUSTOM_ID
properties, and you have a list of values for which you want to show the
headlines in agenda?  If so, I think you could just assemble the list in a
command that sticks new search conditions into one of your custom agenda views.

E.g., if you currently had a custom agenda search mapped to "i" for two
different CUSTOM_IDs, like this:

  (setq org-agenda-custom-commands
   '(("i" tags "CUSTOM_ID=323|CUSTOM_ID=832")))

you could reissue command to get the search done for different list of
custom ids:

  (setq org-agenda-custom-commands
   '(("i" tags "CUSTOM_ID=153|CUSTOM_ID=932|CUSTOM_ID=293")))

I haven't tested this, but I expect it or something similar would work. 
There are probably tweaks you could make, e.g, list could be combined into a
regular expression so you don't need to repeat multiple 'CUSTOM_ID=' sections.

For more info on custom agenda views see:
http://orgmode.org/org.html#Custom-agenda-views
and for more info on property searches see:

Check your .emacs for suspect characters right after where you load

ox-latex hasn't had any changes applied to it since late February, so

facility with taking links to Gnus messages, and the highly

send
emails from orgmode, without just doing copy/paste/attach? 


I've got a package in Elpa called Gnorb, that provides some 
integration

between Org and Gnus. It also includes a function
`gnorb-org-email-subtree' that lets you export a subtree as a 
text or

file, and send it as an email. That might also be useful.

See the variable org-format-latex-options . you might be able to change
it. Maybe something like (untested)

(plist-put org-format-latex-options :html-background "white")

Do you think Is it possible to invert the colors of the latex images? I use a 
black
background and it's impossible to see the latex images.

[O] Bug: Update breaks ox-latex [8.3.4 (8.3.4-42-gae73c7-elpa @ c:/Users/sway/AppData/Roaming/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20160425/)]

[Shawn Way]

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

 http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.


I updated the org mode from the org repository, version 20160425,
including org-plus-contrib.  The prior version didn't throw this error.
I've deleted and re-byte compiled the ox-latex.el file, to no avail.

The debug-init gives me:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-read-syntax ") or . in a vector")

I did not, and that's the first I heard of it! I'll give it a shot now,
thanks.

You need to install Org from their special Elpa:

Did you add the org repo to package-archives:
("org" . "http://orgmode.org/elpa/;)
?

I've got Elpa and Melpa, but no org-plus-contrib -- I did look first!
Where did you get that?

Good idea.  But ", t o" to switch into org-mode and ", t m" to switch
back to message mode (I use evil) is not really onerous.

I think you need to get the org-plus-contrib package then.
