You could be interested to have a look at my org-leuven-agenda-views.el,
in my own "Emacs Leuven" configuration files.

You may find some inspiration at the custom Org views I built in
https://github.com/fniessen/emacs-leuven/blob/master/org-leuven-agenda-views.txt
(literate programming file -- needs tangling).

The views are more for daily/weekly usage, but you could make them run
over a month by customizing them to your taste...

[O] Org HTML export (ReadTheOrg)

[Fabrice Niessen]

Dear all,

FYI, ReadTheOrg (awesome CSS theme, I dear saying it ;-) [1], for your
HTML exports from Org mode) is now "Web Responsive", thanks to a patch
from Geekplux!  Enjoy!

See https://github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes for more information.

Best regards,
Fabrice

[1] I just cloned the awesome Sphinx CSS theme used in the great
http://readthedocs.org/ Web site (see, for example,
http://org-babel.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
All credit goes to the author(s) of Sphinx!

I confirm that you *did* fix my first problem. Simple, neat, and smart.
Thanks a lot!

Any idea how to solve my problem #2: get the computed amount in bold
and/or in another color and/or in bigger font?

[O] How to get sum from remote table + how to put in bold?

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

I'm trying to build a template for invoices written in Org... exporting
to PDF (and HTML). Will be officially public as soon as it's DONE.

Though, I have 2 problems currently:

- I'd like to sum up, in table `total', the sub-total column of table
  `items'. But the `remote' call does not seem to accept the `vsum'
  expression. Is this a foreseen limitation?  Is there a workaround to this?

- I'd like to get the computed amount (last line of `total' table) in bold (and,
  if possible, even in a bigger font). How is that doable?

You might be interested by `date', `time' and `modification-time',

Or, use a macro "color"...

I've begun writing such generic macros for basic and advanced formatting
(see [1]), though they are currently limited to the HTML backend:

  #+MACRO: color @@html:$2@@

I'll update that particular one in the coming hours or days.

Sorry for the noise. And thanks for org-lint which spotted a real

[O] ReadTheOrg HTML theme

Hello,

Just for your information, I've now allowed up to 3 levels in the TOC
(left sidebar) instead of 2.

See https://github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes for more information on
how to use the ReadTheOrg CSS theme in your exports.

Best regards,
Fabrice

PS- I'll give a 1:30 course on Org mode 8 (aimed to PDF LaTeX) during
the "Stage LaTeX de Dunkerque" (yes, LaTeX?!) held on July, 1st. See

[O] PNG images on Worg not appearing in the browser

Hello,

I don't understand why the 2 screenshots I added on Worg (in the
following section of `org-hacks.org') do not appear in the browser:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
*** Where can I find nice themes for HTML export?

You can find great looking HTML themes (CSS + JS) at
https://github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes, currently:

- Bigblow, and

  [[file:images/org-html-themes/bigblow.png]]

- ReadTheOrg, a clone of Read The Docs.

  [[file:images/org-html-themes/readtheorg.png]]

See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnSGSiXYuOk for a demo of the Org
HTML theme Bigblow.
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Link where they should be made visible:

  http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html#orgheadline88

The export process seems to run fine, and the links seem right (images
are correctly displayed in the Org buffer), and the images are well
pushed in the repo!?  Any idea what I'm missing?

No much fun, that's right.

OTOH, I find it uncomfortable to have a "project" (in the publishing
sense) which is, in fact, not publishable anymore, because many files
won't export anymore -- some could even still rely on Org 7...

But I understand your point. The question comes down to what we want:
a uniform, coherent set of Org files (all up-to-date, and exportable) or
a set of HTML pages which we don't touch anymore if their Org
counterpart is not touched either.

Fixed the problems. Now that page is up-to-date on Worg again. Thanks.

The thing is that I did not touch those links, as you can see in my
commit. So, somehow, Org became more strict. And the fact that that file
wasn't modified for some time means it wasn't re-exported for the same
period; hence, the problem was never found -- until someone modifies
whatever in the file...

IOW, shouldn't all files be published each time, to spot such problems
as soon as they become problems (because of syntax changes, for
example), instead of being much later, whenever the file is changed (if
it ever is)?

It seems there are warnings or errors, but the status is not clear (to

Note that all the above messages are outputted on stderr, which does not

[O] New Org-HTML-theme!!

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

I've just published a new theme, called ReadTheOrg, on
https://github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes.

It is a clone of the great Sphinx theme used in the
http://docs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ site.  It gives a beautiful and
professional style to all your Org docs...

Wanna test it right away?  Just add the following to your Org files:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#+HTML_HEAD: https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"</a>;>
#+HTML_HEAD: https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.4/js/bootstrap.min.js"</a>;>
#+HTML_HEAD: http://www.pirilampo.org/styles/readtheorg/js/readtheorg.js"</a>;>
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

and export...

#+begin_note
  While the original theme shines on mobile devices as well, ReadTheOrg
  does not stay completely functional.

  I don't have a lot of time to maintain this project due to other
  responsibilities.  Help is welcome to work on that (and eventually
  improve the default structure of the HTML export)!
#+end_note

PS- I also have written a demo page for the themes that provides
a maximal working support of Org mode syntax.

Please see the
https://github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes/blob/master/demo/org-mode-syntax.org
page for full examples of headings, code, admonitions, footnotes, tables
and other details.

I don't really understand what your problem is. Maybe a screenshot or
video would help.

Here is a video that I made using YASnippet in an Org file:

Re: [O] Change folded headline symbol

Yes, it is!

For example, that's what I have in my .emacs file [1] to get a black
right-pointing pointer (if supported by the current font, as it is
a UTF8 character):

--8<---cut here---start->8---
  ;; Improve display of the ellipsis.
  (set-face-attribute 'org-ellipsis nil
  :box '(:line-width 1 :color "#99")
  :foreground "#99" :background "#FFF8C0"
  :underline nil)

  ;; Ellipsis to use in the Org mode outline.
  (setq org-ellipsis
(if (char-displayable-p ?\u25BA)
" \u25BA"   ; Black right-pointing pointer.
  'org-ellipsis)))  ; Face.
--8<---cut here-------end--->8---

It's in the video, but I forgot to copy it.

I just re-did the ABOVE for a new Emacs session, to get something
similar to the results in the video.

On Cygwin (I'm on Windows), that does not seem to work:

  kill -10 
  kill -USR2 

all answer that there is "no such process" -- while, as you can see in
http://screencast.com/t/EFDJIIu7, I typed the right PID of the hung
Emacs process...

OK, so I just reproduced the problem once again, then:

- tried to C-g in Emacs: impossible!
- launched GDB
- source ~/.gdbinit
- thread 1
- thread apply all backtrace

Still, the backtrace is not as long as normal, and I don't get any GDB
prompt anymore!

I tried to C-c in the shell window, as well without success...

What can I do to provide you with more context?

As it doesn't seem obvious, let me state explicitly that C-g does
nothing; Emacs is hung and does not answer anymore to anything...

Is there an alternative to GDB in such cases?

I thought that, thanks to the backtrace, you could find the culprit, or
reduce the scope of the search, as you often succeed to do.

My current set of customizations is available at
https://github.com/fniessen/emacs-leuven/blob/master/emacs-leuven.el,
but it's so huge it won't help us.

If you have no idea, the only thing would be a dichotomy of my config
file, but that'll take a while.

I agree. I think we cannot afford to change the option values, but you
could imagine changing the string in the echo area to something like
"no results displayed" or some such.

They're not the same...

Extract from my modest (and still "work in progress") Org-Babel
refcard [1]:

- :results silent ::
 Sends the commands, echoes the results in the minibuffer (to see
 code block output), but *does not change the Org mode buffer* (even
 during export, *no results are inserted* into the exported
 document).
 (default for Org and Screen code blocks)

- :results none ::
 Silents the results, even for the minibuffer.  By definition, such
 a code block is run for its side effects.

You mean in another Emacs session, right?  Because I don't have the GDB

I think I can reproduce it "reliably":

1. Open an Org file
2. Go to a task headline
3. Clock into it (C-c C-x C-i)
4. Press down arrown to go to next line
5. Press TAB to open LOGBOOK drawer
6. Press C-c C-n to go the the next task (as drawer is huge)
7. Press up arrow to go to the line before the last clock line
8. Press left arrow to go to the end of the last clock line

I'm not sure whether variations of this do work or not... or whether the
contents of my file does have impact on the recipe.

Now, as asked...

Yes, the problem is how to collect traces that can help people

[O] 24.4.1; Emacs hangs with Org mode when point is in LOGBOOK

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

On Windows 8, with Emacs 24.4.1 (from Dani) and Org mode version
8.3beta, I can very often freeze Emacs when clocking into a task, or
when editing the timestamps found in the LOGBOOK drawer.

I've run Emacs under GDB, and can send a video of it, where you also see
that Emacs takes 100% of the CPU. Though, I can only send it on request,
as it contains information in my Org buffers which I don't want to see
public.

Info from GDB:

Making advertisement for my own stuff, you now have the option
"--body-only" to the Orgmk family of scripts (among others, org2html).

See https://github.com/fniessen/orgmk for more information (or example
code).

On that front, I know I'd have to make the CSS more responsive, by
removing some (or many?) specifications in px, and replace them by
percentages.

Not much I can do here ;-)

Yes, it currently is targeted toward the publication of one file,
presented as if it were many (because of the tab presentation). Not sure
how to for many files.

Maybe the CSS should be cut into what's common for both use cases, and
what's specific to "one Org page" or "multiple Org pages".

I think it does work.  Do you have an ECM where it doesn't?  Or another
proposition?

FWIW, I've written small standalone scripts (such as org2pdf, org2html,

(PS- It would be very nice if we could add http references here!  Then,

Note that using custom link types is -- in my opinion -- outperformed by
the Org macros. For example, because custom link types limit you to
2 arguments, no more.

With macros, you can have as many as you want (or at least 9?), and you
can also easily convert the macro code per back-end; for example:

  #+MACRO: cite @@latex:\cite{$1}odt:\cite{$1}@@

Note that I'm planning to write a set of default (useful) Org macros,
and publish them.

My project is currently on GitHub: https://github.com/fniessen/org-macros.

See documentation on
http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/fniessen/org-macros/blob/master/README.html.

In case you or others want a simplified command-line version of such
conversion tools, you can have a look at my Orgmk project on GitHub [1].

It provides you with:

- org2html [OPTION] FILE
- org2latex [OPTION] FILE
- org2pdf [OPTION] FILE
- org2beamerpdf [OPTION] FILE
- org2odt [OPTION] FILE
- org2txt [OPTION] FILE
- org-tangle FILE

stand-alone scripts, and the `orgmk' wrapper (to convert all files
which need to in a directory, and possibly recursively).

[O] Org mode @ Stage LaTeX de Dunkerque (France)

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

FYI, I'll give 2 talks (of 1h30 each) during the "stage LaTeX de
Dunkerque 2014":

- Edit LaTeX in the Emacs tool

  I'll present Emacs, AUCTeX, RefTeX (thanks Carsten!) and many other
  useful packages or settings.

- Generate a LaTeX document using a light syntax (Org mode)

  I'll present the key features for choosing Org mode (over plain LaTeX)

Remember the following quote of Knuth:

  │ programs: Instead of imagining that our main task is to instruct
  │ a computer what to do, let us concentrate rather on explaining to
  │ human beings what we want a computer to do.
  │ 
  │ The practitioner of literate programming can be regarded as an
  │ essayist, whose main concern is with exposition and excellence of

  │ reinforce each other.
  ╰

Hence, for me, people scanning your config should read the document that
you've made therefore (that is, the weaved document), not the file
that's made for a computer (that is, the tangle document).

If there are parts you don't want others to see, tag them as
":noexport:" or similar more subtle ways.

As a guy convinced by LP, I wouldn't invest much time into facilitating
the reading of the tangled file; I would, on the opposite, invest a lot
of time (and I did -- results will be public soon on my Web site and on
GitHub!) on the weaved document, by improving CSS for the HTML version
and LaTeX styles.

If you're talking of Orgmk (on https://github.com/fniessen/orgmk),

Just redo a `make install' so that a symlink [1] gets created to it.

For weaving, you already there are:

You could have a look at Orgmk [1], a suite of shell scripts I wrote
with the following goals in mind:

- to be more productive, by running the export only when the source Org
  files are updated.

- *to share some common Emacs and Org configuration inside your team*,

- to offload compilation into an external batch Emacs process, allowing
  you to go on editing or working while exporting the documents.

You just need to install it, and then using it is a simple as:

I launched M-x profiler-start just before killing (C-k) the line which
I know shows the problem.

I launched M-x profiler-report as soon as I got control back.

So, it only covers a single command (C-k).

I made a big progress on this one.

I realized that Emacs did not into an infloop, but simply gave me back
control after a very long time (more than 2 mins). Good news #1.

I thought at using the profiler of Emacs 24, and it gives meaningful

Yes, you can.

See `org-block-begin/end-line' for the block delimiters.

For an example, take a look at

[O] [Announcement] Orgmk (automate export of Org documents to PDF, HTML, etc.)

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

For the interested ones, please find Orgmk at
https://github.com/fniessen/orgmk.

Orgmk is a suite of Bash scripts [1] for automating the conversion of
Org documents to different formats, such as HTML or PDF.

Objectives?

- Be more productive, by running the export only when the source Org
  files are updated.

- Share some common Emacs and Org configuration inside your team,
  separately of what you have in your personal Emacs configuration file.

- Offload compilation into an external batch Emacs process, allowing you
  to go on editing or working while exporting the documents.

It still can be improved, but is already fully usable.

Note that, prior to exporting, Orgmk will ensure that the tables found
in your Org document are up-to-date... Other improvements could concern:

- checking links and cross-references,
- checking BibTeX entries,
- checking word spelling, and
- any more...

But these are only in my (Org) TODO list.

Best regards,
Fabrice

[1] The scripts run on both Unix and Microsoft Windows (with Cygwin).

OK, but that shouldn't be a problem either: if there is no #+MACRO in an
"Include" file, that doesn't matter...

You say that the order of operations, during export, is:

- Include files through "INCLUDE" keywords
- Expand macros

OK. Still, I don't understand what you mean by "so MACRO keywords should
be read when appropriate"?

Anyway, let me explain what I wish such a feature (_or_ the opposite:
that Babel blocks are allowed in SETUPFILE)...

I'm sharing on GitHub a project [1] where I write Org macros that
everybody could once need, and these are easily accessible (once cloned)
in every file, after a simple directive such as:

  #+INCLUDE: /path/to/org-macros.setup

As I do have Babel code blocks inside the `org-macros.setup' file, it
needs to be loaded via the "INCLUDE" directive, not via a "SETUPFILE".

Example of such macro calling a Babel code block:

  ╭
  │ #+name: version-history
  │ #+begin_src sh :exports none :results silent :colnames '(Version Date 
Author Comment)
  │ git log --pretty=format:"%h%x09%ad%x09%an%x09%s" --date=short | head -n 5
  │ #+end_src
  │
  │ #+MACRO: version-history call_version-history[:eval yes]()[:eval yes 
:results table :colnames '(Version Date Author Comment)]
  ╰────

So, thanks to the INCLUDE directive, I already have a one-liner to
include such "extended macros". But these aren't collected by
`org-macro--collect-macros'...

Fabrice

Not sure this is true. Look at the following tricky example from my slides for
the "stage LaTeX de Dunkerque 2013" [1]:

#+begin_src org :results latex replace :wrap "SRC latex :exports code" :exports 
results
<>
#+end_src

It does eval as:

#+results:
#+BEGIN_SRC latex :exports code
\begin{itemize}
\item Premier élément
\begin{itemize}
\item Niveau plus profond
\end{itemize}
\item Autre élément
\item Dernier élément
\end{itemize}
#+END_SRC

which in turn evals (for the export) into the results:

#+results:
#+BEGIN_LaTeX
\begin{itemize}
\item Premier élément
\begin{itemize}
\item Niveau plus profond
\end{itemize}
\item Autre élément
\item Dernier élément
\end{itemize}
#+END_LaTeX

So, you definitely can pass extra options to the wrap header argument...

I've updated `org-auctex-keys' in the following way:

- `C-c C-c' runs a menu which looks a lot like AUCTeX's menu: pressing once the
  key binding calls the export process (that is, generates a PDF file);
  pressing a second time will display it (if available).

  Extra optimization: if the PDF files is newer than the Org file, then
  pressing `C-c C-c' will display it (avoiding to redo it).

- As there are a lot of conflicts between Org and AUCTeX keys, you now can call
  the standard Org command by prefixing the key binding with a `C-u' argument.
  Note that the first `C-u' is not passed onto the standard command.

  For example,

  + C-c C-c  calls my command `org-auckeys-export-dispatch'
  + C-u C-c C-c  calls the original `org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c' with no `C-u' 
arg (= 1)
  + C-u C-u C-c C-c  calls the original `org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c' with 1 `C-u' 
arg (= 4)
  + C-u C-u C-u C-c C-c  calls the original `org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c' with 2 `C-u' 
arg (= 16)
  + etc. (provided it makes sense)

- I've added a key binding to turn off/on "Org AUCKeys": `C-+'.

  So, to call a standard Org command, you can as well disable
  `org-auctex-keys', pressing the key binding you know in standard Org, and
  re-enable `org-auctex-keys', that is:

C-+ C-c C-c C-+

  to call `org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c'.

I don't have experience with mathematics in Org nor in LaTeX. The problem you
point out does not seem to be related in any way to org-auctex-keys.el, though.

Could you try different variations of your code: all the "inside" code on one
line, or all lines with indentation (I see that \neg is not indented), or...
and see whether some work.

This should anyway be reported as a separate problem from the AUCTeX key
bindings.

FYI, I've added the suggested key bindings (from you and from Marcin), and
added a copyright (Emacs-alike).

Currently implemented:

| Shortcut| What it runs   |
|-+|
| C-c C-s | org-insert-heading |
| C-c C-j | org-insert-heading-respect-content |
| C-c C-f C-e | org-auckeys-font (emphasize)   |

No, it's just that I'm lost when it comes down to copyrights, copylefts, and
all the subtle meanings and implications of that.

[O] AUCTeX key bindings within Org documents

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

Due to a friend's request, I've tried to offer AUCTeX key bindings within Org
documents via a minor mode, called "org-auctex-keys".

If you're interested, check it out at
https://github.com/fniessen/org-auctex-key-bindings.

Note that I'm willing to add extra AUCTeX keys -- but I don't use AUCTeX enough
to know what's important to transfer to Org.

Could it be because of the accent in Cédric?  UTF-8 vs ISO Latin 1?

Personally, I use this, and it works (TM):

--8<---cut here---start->8---
** January

%%(diary-anniversary 1979 01 15) Birthday of Sofia (%d years)
%%(diary-anniversary 1976 01 27) Birthday of Thomas (%d years)

As `org-anniversary' is defined in `org-agenda':

  ╭
  │ org-anniversary is a Lisp function in `org-agenda.el'.
  │
  │ (org-anniversary YEAR MONTH DAY &optional MARK)
  │
  │ Like `diary-anniversary', but with fixed (ISO) order of arguments.

adding a:

(require 'org-agenda)

somewhere at the top of your .emacs could resolve that problem?

Instead of trying to put the "look if package is present" constraint on
Babel's side (and have a configuration file which you cannot exchange), I'd do
it on the Emacs (Lisp) side, as I did in my configuration file [1] with a
"try-require" function:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
  (defvar leuven--missing-packages nil
"List of packages that `try-require' or `locate-library' can't find.")

  ;; require a feature/library if available; if not, fail silently
  (defun try-require (feature)
"Attempt to load a library or module. Return true if the
  library given as argument is successfully loaded. If not, instead
  of an error, just add the package to a list of missing packages."
(let (time-start)
  (condition-case err
  ;; protected form
  (progn
(when leuven-load-verbose
  (message "(info) Checking for `%s'..." feature))
(if (stringp feature)
(load-library feature)
  (setq time-start (float-time))
  (require feature))
t)
;; error handler
(file-error ;; condition
 (progn
   (when leuven-load-verbose
 (message "(info) Checking for `%s'... missing" feature))
   (add-to-list 'leuven--missing-packages feature 'append))
 nil

Thanks!

Yes, I wanted to show the "problem" (horrible LaTeX syntax) and the "solution"
(just write what you meant, with almost no extra syntax in Org).

That made quite a shock to the attendants, even if they're used to the LaTeX
side: they were astonished that the Org syntax was so close to the "how it's
displayed" in the PDF -- mainly for the lists, but also for the tables.

That's something I still haven't understood... The only one, and you spotted
it!

I tried all variations of ^:nil, ^:t and ^:{} but none translated the
super/sub-scripts correctly. A mystery that stays to be discovered...

BTW, I've now allowed (it wasn't "on" by default) downloading the original PDF
file from SlideShare. So, you can get the original file (about the LaTeX
exporter) in case you don't see correctly part of the pages at

For your information, I've opened a ticket on SlideShare. But it seems we
can't expect so good news for our Beamer slides:

Could one of you report (as suggested by Nick) whether it works (or not) from
another browser on the Mac?

The fact it's limited to Mac would make me think of a font problem?  I'm using
Libertine through a require package in my "white" Beamer color theme (based on
the Org theme from Marcin Borkowski).

When viewing the fonts used in the document (via Adobe Acrobat,
"Properties..." > "Fonts"), they all seem "embedded". So, I don't
understand...

Plus I thought that SlideShare was making images of the slides, à la DocView!?
Seems not...

Hello,

FYI, I will give for the second time a 90-min course on Org mode, mainly
focused on its LaTeX exporter (... and all the advantages of writing in Org
instead of in AUCTeX).

I will present my seminar during the "Stage LaTeX de Dunkerque" (France), held
on the 12th of June. It's free and open to everybody.

Here they are:

https://github.com/fniessen/stage-latex-dunkerque-2012

Please note that -- even if the event was on last Wed -- the slides aren't
really in a terminal state yet. In particular, some Org blocks aren't rendered
as they should because of bugs in the old LaTeX exporter. I'm sure they'll go
away with the new Beamer exporter (as it's already good when exporting to a
standard document, with the new LaTeX exporter).

[O] Presentation on Org-mode at Dunkerque (France)

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

Just to tell you that I will make a presentation on Org-mode during the LaTeX
day in Dunkerque (FR) on Wed 13th June 2012.

Here is my summary in English for the 1:30 presentation:

You wish to write high-quality documents or presentations, whose
successive versions are easy to compare (thanks to CVS, SVN or Git, for
example)? LATEX is un-miss-able.

You find, nevertheless, the syntax very heavy to write tables or to handle
nested lists? You have problems convincing your colleagues to go the LaTeX
route?

Come then discover org-mode (http://orgmode.org/). Writing a document or a
presentation will become as simple as an writing an email. And you inherit
new possibilites (of which outlining, status and tags on the sections, as
well as the advanced search functions are some examples that will be
looked at).

It will be more focused to the LaTeX exporter, of course, but I will try to
give more incentive for making the switch!

My slides will be publicly available (first in French, in English as well if
these are judged as worthing it ;-)).

For subscribing to the event (limited to 100 seats), see details at:

http://stage-latex-gte.univ-littoral.fr/
