Hi folks

Long time!!!
Hope you folks are doing well in these bizarre times


Can someone help me to write a filter (or some such) so that headings like
--
*** Recursion before Iteration  :L:
Lorem ipsum etc


get transformed to

--
*** Dummy :ignore:
#+begin_law
Recursion before Iteration
#+end_law
Lorem Ipsum etc

--

1. Assume suitable environment defs in latex using newtheorem for

2. Assume:

   :L: -> begin_law

   :F: -> begin_fact

   :A: -> begin_action

IOW I want to preserve the document structure of the headline but want the
headline to use equation style typesetting on the latex side.

Thanks

[O] org-tempo and org-structure-template-alist changes

2018-01-07 Thread Rustom Mody
Recent changes to org (not sure when), seem to have changed the type
of org-structure-template-alist

This broke org-reveal : https://github.com/yjwen/org-reveal

I suggested (without too much knowledge) the attached patch to the reveal folks
(Issue: https://github.com/yjwen/org-reveal/issues/315#issuecomment-355868192 )

Now someone has asked that that patch be made into a pull-request

It would be good if someone here can look at the patch in the light of
these recent changes and see
if the patch looks ok

[O] org-install?

2016-06-14 Thread Rustom Mody
There are a number of documentation pages, eg
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org4beginners.html
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html

that recommend to use
(require 'org-install)

However org-install itself says:

;; The file org-install is obsolete.
;;
;; It is provided here so that (require 'org-install) does not
;; trigger an error for users with obsolete Emacs configuration.
;; You can safely remove (require 'org-install) from your config."


And contains nothing else!!

So what exactly is the case?
What is the setup procedure recommended for git-installed org?

[O] bitbucket wikis in org

2015-06-08 Thread Rustom Mody
Hi

Bitbucket does not (yet) support org syntax for docs/README¹... in
particular wiki.
Of course one can write the wiki in org and export to markdown.
However I suspect that this will knock out bitbucket's own git backend
system
when for example all ids change in the md generated from org.

Does anyone have a workflow and directory organization for this?

[O] Escaping again!

2014-05-30 Thread Rustom Mody
I have some pseudo-haskell in slides I am preparing with org and ox-reveal

- \(+\):: Int → Int → Int
- \(-\):: Int → Int →Int
- \(\leq\):: Int → Int → Bool
- \(=\):: Int → Int → Bool

Those '::' are haskell for has type
However putting a space before the '::' makes it into a definition list!

Ive also tried making the \( \) enclose the whole line -- no use!

So how to escape the :: and tell org: Please dont make this a definition
list?

 For now description lists accept both - and +.  I'm all for

 in your example.

 What do you and others think?


If you are asking me about a proposed change, I thank you for the
consideration :-)

Please dont take the following too seriously -- I am just spoilt by the
fact that I am an old programmer.

Here is a command I ran on the org sources and its output:

$ grep -r '' .
./contrib/lisp/ox-groff.el:  \\(\\)?[ \t]*\n .br\n
output)))


./lisp/ox-latex.el:\\(\\)?[ \t]*\n  \n

./lisp/ox-latex.el:  \\(\\)?[ \t]*\n  \n

./lisp/ox-odt.el:\\(\\)?[ \t]*\n text:line-break/
output t)))
./lisp/ox-man.el:  (setq output (replace-regexp-in-string
\\(\\)?[ \t]*\n .br\n
./lisp/ox-html.el: \\(\\)?[ \t]*\n
./lisp/ox-html.el:   \\(\\)?[ \t]*\n
./lisp/ox-texinfo.el:\\(\\)?[ \t]*\n  @*\n output)))
./lisp/ox-texinfo.el: \\(\\)?[ \t]*\n  \n
contents)))
./lisp/org.el:(looking-at \\($\\|[^]\\

So sometimes we need that much ESCAPE-ing.

I realise that the general support for escaping in org is much harder than
in a programming language like lisp because there are so many different
contexts and different entities to escape.

However I would also like to humbly submit that if one doesn't have
systematic general escaping, there will always be legitimate uses that will
not be addressable.

Anyways… if you are doing this just for me (!) very kind of you!
For now I am getting along using '꞉' (Unicode 0xA789).

 As a lowly user, I have often wished for a hypothetical function called 
 org-escapify-region.  (And of
 course the reverse function.)

Just another instance that I had to deal with today.
When using reveal and ox-reveal one needs to set
#+REVEAL_ROOT: path/to/reveal.js

I wanted to 'comment out' that line.
After trying ':' and single-quote neither of which worked, I finally got it
by making it into:

#+REVEAL_ROOT_XX: ...


[O] Playwriitng with org?

2014-05-16 Thread Rustom Mody
Earlier I used to use troff and wrote play/drama-like pieces using that
eg http://www.the-magus.in/Publications/ewd.pdf

Later we switched to latex and using play.sty. Here is an example:
http://www.the-magus.in/Publications/DotingOnTheDot.pdf

I would now like to stay in org as much as possible and use latex as the
backend — using maybe play.sty but there seem to be alternatives like
dramatist.sty.

Is this possible/easy/worthwhile?

[O] source block coloring inconsistency

2014-04-17 Thread Rustom Mody
Ive struggling with source code blocks for a few days.
After not managing inline source in some cases I tried to switch to
display blocks.  Here again after trying for a couple of days I
thought I was on an org bug.

Finally I find its not a bug. However the hinting given by the
coloring of code-blocks could perhaps be improved???

Heres the example file (heavily cut down)
---
#+TITLE: Unicode in Python
#+OPTIONS: toc:nil
* Introduction
Python has been making long strides in embracing unicode.
However it is arguably only half-way yet -- python programs can
/support/ unicode well however python program- /source/ is still
completely ASCII.

Well… Actually with python 3 (not 2) this is already possible
#+BEGIN_SRC python
 α, β, γ = 1,2,3
 (α, β, γ)
(1, 2, 3)
#+END_SRC
* Legend
** Math Space Advantage -- MSA

Below I will point such cases out with a 'MSA'. In some cases its
technically required to have spaces, in others its just more
aesthetic to have them.
#+BEGIN_SRC python
x in lst
#+END_SRC python
cannot be written as

#+BEGIN_SRC python
xinlst
#+END_SRC python
---

Some blocks export (to html) correct; some dont.
Finally traced it to the end line:
#+END_SRC python
which should be
#+END_SRC


However emacs shows the end line in red as though it recognized it.

Could the fontlock highlighter and the exporter be consistent with
respect to syntax?

IOW for a block ending as follows:
#+BEGIN_SRC python

If it is wrong it should not be colored as a block

If it is right then export should work on it as a block

Thanks

 Probably an Emacs issue, M-x report-emacs-bug and provide the recipe.


Sure I can do that.

It looks like some runaway regexp falling off the end of file to me:

It does not happen with builtin org (7.9)
Happens with what I pulled yesterday 8.2.5e
Happens equally with emacs23 and 24
Does not happen if the table is followed by anything
So if you still think it classifies as an emacs bug I can file it

Please let me know

Thanks Nicolas --  works now!
I came upon this trying to poke into another issue:  Table containing code
containing a '|'

It was earlier giving some elisp errors -- dont remember on export or on
C-c C-c.
Now that is not happening which is good!

However there is still a minor issue: font-locking shows something like ~x
| y~
inside a table as code but the other table commands like C-c C-c and export
to html treats the '|' as a table marker.

I of course checked Bastien's pointer to the FAQ for '|' inside table.
As of now neither vert nor \vert{} work.

 Can you explain not working? There's not enough info here to see

 rick



Lets say my-org.css has this one line:

code { color: green; }

ie put inline code blocks in green when exporting to html

I change it to

code { color: blue; }

1  save the file
2. Run rusi/load-css
3. Check that org-export-html-file's value has changed from green to blue

However exports from org to html continue to export code-blocks as green

Restart emacs and export (some org file that has code blocks)
Now they are blue

[O] vertical space

2014-01-30 Thread Rustom Mody
Im having an issue with inconsistent vertical space

If I do latex export \\es at eol produce blank lines
However with html export they appear in output but not consistently
org version 8.2.5e
emacs version 24.3.1

Below a cut-down version from a file I see it happening

#+TITLE: Equational Reasoning in Logic
#+AUTHOR: Rusi
#+OPTIONS: toc:nil
* Object and Meta language
Look at the following proof

#+ATTR_LATEX: :mode math :environment flalign
P \wedge (Q \vee P)\\
 \wedge distributes over \vee  \\
= (P \wedge Q) \vee (P \wedge Q) \\
 Idempotence of \vee  \\
=  P \wedge Q \\
 \\
 \\
Observe that:
- Each proof step has an expression
- Each step also carries an implicit statement, that the given expression
is $True$ . So, in the first step, we have an implicit statement:  P \wedge
(Q \vee P) = True

 Why exactly the last one is parsed as a literal string and not as a line

 can say is that if there is something other than whitespace on the line
 before the \\, it gets parsed as a line break; if there is only
 whitespace (or nothing), it gets parsed as a string. That's probably a
 rough description and not quite right in all particulars, but I hope
 it's close enough.


So the question remains: How to get generic, consistent vertical space?


[O] making static mathjax work

Mozilla XULRunner 24.2.0 - 20131215094009
Mozilla XULRunner 1.9b3pre - 2007122108

The last seems to run without doing anything
The other two give version mismatch issues

Does anyone have a current recipe to make it work?

Perhaps not relevant since the static mathjax stuff is independent of emacs
However just in case :-)

[O] minimizing mixed installs

2014-01-19 Thread Rustom Mody
After my recent encounters with mixed installs, I poked around a bit
and found this line (around line 80) in org.el

(load org-loaddefs.el t t t)

It seems to me (with very scant knowledge of course :D)
- the noerror (first 't' ) makes this fail silently
- to load another org-loaddefs in the path if it exists

Ive replaced this with these 3 lines:

(setq vv (concat (file-name-directory load-file-name) org-loaddefs.el))
(message (format vv is %s vv))
(load vv nil t t)

This ensures that
- only a sibling org-loaddefs of org.el will be loaded
- if this file -- org-loaddefs -- not found then fail noisily

[The setq and the vv are of course a hack to see whats going on]

On my setup I could check these 4 cases
1 emacs23
2 emacs24

a with org-loaddefs works
b without org-loaddefs gives explicit errors

[O] odt exporter on mixed org setup

2014-01-15 Thread Rustom Mody
Just helped a friend to install and upgrade to latest org.
Method summary:
$ git clone
$ make update
combined with setup of load-paths

Ended with: ox-odt cannot find factory style files

I remember that I too had this problem
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-07/msg00341.html
and it had recently disappeared.

Checked that it comes back it I use emacs23; goes away if I use emacs24
Checked that the messages when it works in emacs24 are like thus:

Debug (ox-odt): Searching for OpenDocument styles files...
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/styles/... [2 times]
Debug (ox-odt): Trying ~/pdsw/etc/styles/...
Debug (ox-odt): Trying ~/pdsw/org-mode/lisp/etc/styles/...
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/24.3/etc/org/...
Debug (ox-odt): Using styles under /usr/share/emacs/24.3/etc/org/
Debug (ox-odt): Searching for OpenDocument schema files...
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/schema/... [2 times]
Debug (ox-odt): No OpenDocument schema files installed

So evidently my 'working' odt export is working because its using the
builtin emacs odt exporter and not the latest one

Looking at org-odt-* stuff I see almost a dozen files and directories
and file lists and what not.

All attempts so far at doing
 (setq org-odt-styles-dir ~/pdsw/org-mode/etc/styles)
in various places, hooks etc have not changed the fact that it gets
the builtin one

Something along the lines that instead of generating a footnote, a

 Where does perl come into the picture? Both texi2pdf and the program it

[O] escaping org commands

How does one escape something in a text that is an org-command

 You can customize `org-activate-links' so that radio links are
 not activated -- not tested, but my assumption is that the exporter
 should handle this fine.

 There is also `org-export-filter-radio-target-functions'.

 HTH,


Thanks Bastien that will work in this case
However I am also looking for something more generic:

When there is something in my document which normally looks like an
org command, is there any generic way of saying This particular
command-like thing is not a command

eg in C a backslash in strings (and in some cases a %) is an escape
character

Is there no such general (set of) concepts for org?

Sorry for the half-complete line:

Well clearly the radio tables section reads better now. Further comments
inline.
Before that some general comments.

The Python list thread starting here
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2013-July/653164.html

As you will see some python programmers (including emacsers!) seem to have
a need for something like this and dont seem to know about org. And by
extension one may assume other languages than python also. In short this
seems to be a general need.

So what is written below should be taken less from my own pov -- I am
hardly an org power-user but still a user -- than from the pov of a general
emacser -- a programmer who uses emacs and knows next to nothing about org

 Yes, hardwired by design.


Not a problem in itself.

It becomes a problem in connection with the dfault value of
org-radio-table-templates which contains many instances of

BEGIN RECEIVE ORGTBL %n

and thereby suggests that that is changeable


   - Not clear what is the relation of this string and
 orgtbl-radio-templates

 The templates insert a BEGIN RECEIVE/END RECEIVE table template with
 *proper commenting* around it in different programming modes.
 I improved this in the docs.

   - I find 1 space is fixed between RECEIVE and ORGTBL. Multiple
  allowed between ORGTBL and table-name

 OK, I have removed this restriction.

   - Its not clear from the doc whether its RECEIVE ORGTBL or
   /* RECEIVE ORGTBL

 That depends on the programming mode.  The documentation says that the
 lines must be comments in the current mode, I would think that this is
 clear enough.


Some languages (eg Python) have no multiline comment but have a multiline
string which is also ok to use



   - Subtle interaction between # in org and host mode comment char -- #
 in python, shell etc -- could do with some elaboration

 Can you propose something for the documentation?

 
 
  3 hook system
  =
 
   - What are the hooks for orgtbl?
   - How do the org hooks relate to the orgtbl hooks?
   - Note: orgtbl is for those who are not otherwise using orgmode

 What to you mean?  Mode hooks, or hooks for specific functionality of the
 table?  If table commands run hooks, the corresponding orgtbl commands will
 do so as well, because they simply call the table functions in an
 environment where the proper keys bindings are not accessible.


As I said at start of this mail, we are looking at orgtbl for otherwise
non-org users.
For that audience I was exploring whether vanilla org would work OTB
ie without any of my org-settings
also not the latest but one bundled with emacs

Since at that point I really could not understand
orgtbl-radio-table-templates and thought it had to be set I asked. As it
appears now, it works without any customization so the point is moot.
Nevertheless the general question is: If a non-org user of orgtbl needs to
set up minor-mode specific customization where is it to be done?


 orgtbl-mode is a standard minor mode and has `orgtbl-mode-hook', similar
 to all other minor modes.  See the documentation of define-minor-mode.  Do
 you feel the manual should say so?  It does not document many other hooks
 in org either, because there are too many.


 
  4 Long header line
  ==
 
   I could not figure out how to split a long
   :#+ORGTBL: SEND...  line

 It cannot be split.


There are programming related organizations for which something like
80-char lines is really not negotiable!
So I hope this can be considered as a feature request of course a very
minor one

Speaking generally, maybe someone should respond to that python list thread.
It can be me however someone more org-knowledgeable may be more appropriate

[O] orgmode tables for programmers (was table export to same buffer)

On Mon, Aug 12, 2013 at 11:50 PM, William Henney when...@gmail.com wrote:


 The template is not strictly necessary - you can just add the required
 lines by hand to your C source file.
 I think that orgtbl-to-generic should be able to do what you want out of
 the box.  Maybe the attached example (orgtbl-test.c) might help you.  The
 idea is that you edit the org table at the top, then C-u C-u C-c C-c will
 update all the formulae in the table and install the results in your C
 source code at the bottom.  This is not quite what you originally asked
 for, since you have two copies of the data in the file and you have to
 remember to only edit the version in the org table.  But it is pretty
 close.

Thanks Will.
Ive converted your code to python (attached).
I find it works in org 8 but not in 6.33 -- the default for emacs on debian.
Is it easy to make it work for earlier org also??

Reason: This question was asked on the python list: thread starting

I was writing up what I could make out of having program-files with inline
tables.
The example is done for python.  It is exactly what the OP wants but close
enough so giving it here.
This file shows two approaches for making python data structures from
orgtbl with both sender and receiver in same file.

The first table is made with single line comments
The second table is made using python's triple-quote feature
The third is the recipient for both/either of the above

To try out orgtbl minor mode needs to be active after python mode is active.
Also it does not quite work for org 6.33
---
For the first use M-x orgtbl-toggle-comment followed by C-c C-c (inside the
table) to send to recipient, followed by another M-x orgtbl-toggle-comment

For the second only C-c C-c in the sender table is sufficient

This looks like a useful approach

The variable names dont seem to match:
Appendix 6.2 talks of orgtbl-radio-tables
However org (8.0.7) seems to have orgtbl-radio-table-templates

Assuming they are the same, anywhere I can read about the documentation of

However here some pre and postprocessing is also probably required.
Something like an automation of the following:

1. Editing a large struct spec in C -- major mode is C-mode
2. Select the region (may even be a rectangle)
3. Paste into an org-mode buffer
4. Run C-c | on region
5. Edit table as required
6. org-table-export in desired format to a file F
7. Visit F
8. Copy/Cut F (if necessary as rectangle)
9. Go back to original C-mode buffer and paste

[O] org build/git problems

2013-07-08 Thread Rustom Mody
Ive been having problems with odt export which seem to be related to build
issues which seem to be related to git issues.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/74409

In more detail:
http://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-build-system.html
says that the build structure includes (among other makefiles) these
---

org-mode/doc/Makefile
org-mode/etc/Makefile
org-mode/lisp/Makefile

---
However on my system I 'find' as follows
---
$ find . -iname makefile
./lisp/Makefile
./Makefile
---
ie there are NO makefiles in etc doc etc. Only in lisp.

So I conclude that the etc make which is needed to setup the odt export
paths is not happening and so odt-export is barfing.

So where are the makefiles?

Running git status I get the following which among other things shows the
makefiles from doc and etc as deleted.
I am too much of a git noob to know what next!!

The deleted status-es disappeared
Now odt export is working.

So two questions:
1. What could have happened that those files vanished?

2. Is it possible with the new build system to run org compiled but in-tree.
I do not like to run org from a separate build-directory than the git
directory because it creates one more nook for versionitits. See thread

Hi,
I have written something that may be useful to some and is somewhat
complementary to what is being discussed here.
[Well 'written' is not quite accurate  -- Nick and Stefan helped me get it
together]
Its a transliteration system that Ive used with the itrans devanagari (ie
Hindi/Sanskrit etc)

I expect that in any language in which
1. there is a somewhat accepted standard roman form
2. that roman form is available as an emacs input method
3. the roman is easier to write but painful (for natives of course!!) to
read

this will be useful

ie make a buffer (needs to be visiting a file) containing
OM
and call rpm-apply-iinput-method
and you should get a buffer containing
ॐ

Rusi

[O] babel - python question

2013-07-05 Thread Rustom Mody
[Complete babel noob here]

Following the babel doc
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/intro.html#library-of-babel

I wrote this

* Head
#+name: ppp :results value
#+begin_src python
import time
print(Hello, today's date is %s % time.ctime())
print('Two plus two is')
return 2 + 2
#+end_src

Hit C-c C-c

and got a new block

#+RESULTS:
: 4


I am mystified!
In python a top level return gives a syntax error.
Here it works. Is some secret function being created?

Also the results changed to output does not change the behavior

Re: [O] ox-html.el removal

2013-03-11 Thread Rustom Mody

 A child with Asperger’s syndrome may notice that a woman in the line at
 the supermarket checkout is obese, and remark, in his or her usual tone of
 voice and volume, that the lady is fat and needs to go on a diet. The
 child’s opinion is that she should be grateful for the observation and
 advice; the likelihood that his or her mother will be embarrassed or the
 woman offended at such a rude comment is not part of the child’s thinking
 process. Other children would normally inhibit such a response, based on
 the  understanding of the other person’s thoughts and feelings. Children
 and adults with Asperger’s syndrome appear to have a greater allegiance to
 honesty and the truth than to the thoughts and feelings of others.
 [From The complete guide to Aspergers by Tony Attwood]


When Samuel writes short context-less mails and someone (interestingly
Jambunathan) shows irritation, Carsten firmly and gently advocates
compassion considering his difficulties

Just putting forward the possibility that Jambunathan suffers from
Aspergers and be treated with the (some?) compassion

So when Jambunathan says:
- dont wear implementer hat, just wear user hat
- the table in footnote is not confusing
- etc etc,

he probably has no clue that he is hurting people's sentiments. And
scolding him for the same is similar to scolding a color-blind person for
breaking a traffic signal.  The central feature of Aspergers is inability
to have a 'theory-of-mind' the sense that others have consciousness
analogous to ourselves.  This comes across as ridiculous egoism ('being a
jerk') when in fact its a painful cerebral defect of being unable to put
oneself in another's shoes

Of course disabled persons should not be allowed to drive if it can be
dangerous to others/themselves.
Likewise what is decided about conduct/etiquette on this list and/or
contribution to org in the larger interest, is ok by me.
Just requesting some compassion in the decision-making

Jambunathan: Maybe you think that by violently wrenching yourself out of
the org community you can start again on a clean slate elsewhere? I would
bet the problems you are facing here are not the first such in your life
and if you dont learn from these they will hardly be the last.  On the
other hand if you do learn maybe you will find that the org community is as
warm, friendly and vibrant as any you can get.

Finally a personal note: I often feel the way you do. Sitting before a
computer makes it worse. Sunshine makes it better. In particular
surya-namaskar is quite a magic potion.

Hope you can do a few before making a response

 Dunno.  :)

 Here is the new code (with dependencies not included as
 mentioned).  Most of it, including the command you asked for,
 might work without them.  No guarantees.

 An old version is in the thread [O] exporting HTML
 - content only, with Tamas Papp and others.

 Alexandre, a few small things are needed to produce a blog
 to my standards: H level fix, diff with live, footnote CSS
 fix, exact and fast word count, emdash, section
 separator, jump page marker, colored boxes with padding and
 margin, Blogger editor settings, org-export-with-*, etc.

 If the defaults work for you, there is no need to use
 anything like this.

 It was written over years a few minutes
 at a time.  Again, it was written for me.

 FWIW, HTH.

 Great.

  How to export the whole file?

 Create a top level headline, or activate the region on the whole buffer.

 I never do things at the file level in Org, because to me Org is
 fundamentally an outline.


Not sure how to interpret that operationally...
You keep all your blog-posts in one file with one top-level heading per
post?

What is the best way to use orgmode to prepare posts for blogger?

Sorry if this is a FAQ; I did google around and best I get is
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-blog-wiki.html which does not seem to have
something specifically for blogger.

Note I am asking about preparing the html so that it is blogger-friendly.
It can then be manually posted into the html tab.
Automatically posting/uploading etc is a second question but that is not my

 I have code for exactly this, but it is not packagized and not all of
 it will work for you without tweaking.  It comes with explanation of
 what Blogger needs.  I posted a working version long ago, and it has
 been updated since, but now requires a few odds and ends from my
 setup, so it is not self-contained.  It is slowly (years) being
 packagized.

 I will try to soon post the new code FWIW.  I run my blog with it.
 The neatest feature is that you can diff an updated entry with the
 live version.

[O] speeding up org (was How could I mix COMMENT and TODO?)

2012-04-06 Thread Rustom Mody
François wrote:


 In my very first tries with Org, a few months ago, I put all Org files
 into the agenda, to discover that Org was very, very slow.  So, I
 changed it all and collected all agenda and TODO into three files only,
 holding lots of links to all other Org files where the information
 really was.  Org recovered all its speed.  And besides, to repair the
 lost search capabilities, I kludged M-x rgrep so it could search all Org
 files and reveal contents when visiting hits.  Well, the reveal does
 not always work, but yet, the quicker search is constantly useful to me.

 Currently, having put TODOs back in their proper Org files and declaring
 them as agenda files, 38 agenda files are taken out from 360 Org files.
 Even if slightly less speedy than 3 agenda files, this is still very
 bearable: Org does not crawl.  The way Org handles org-agenda-files as
 a string naming a file is really convenient to me, it eases the writing
 of external programs acting on them all.  All in all, very satisfactory!



Hi François,

I made the suggestion that ragel should/could be part of emacs:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-03/msg00864.html

Summarised by saying that if ragel is integrated into elisp, org code could
become both significantly faster and more readable.

That most sluggish elisp code may be so due to regular expression code, is
discussed here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2010-04/msg01202.html

[In all fairness this is all a bit OT for an org list and should really be
on an emacs devel list]
