How to send patch for org-contrib?

[dalanicolai]

Hello,

I have just created a patch for org-eldoc.el in org-contrib.
I tried to send it using the 'Prepare a patchset' functionality on
sourcehut which
requires me to enter some email-address for where to send it to.
As I have no idea where to send it, I simply filled in the address of this
mailing list.
However, I do not see the message appear in my inbox.

So, I am wondering, how should I send a patch for org-contrib?

Thank you

[PATCH org-contrib 0/1] Fix org-eldoc functionality

[~dalanicolai]

Eldoc functionality only works after a restricted set of commands (see
the variable 'eldoc-message-commands'). Because `org-self-insert-
command', by default, is not in that list, eldoc functionality works
poorly in org-mode (it does not work when typing, only when navigating).
This patch fixes it for when using org-eldoc.el.

Re: [FR] Add support for racket images in org-babel

[dalanicolai]

Thanks for your answer!

It looks to me that when `org-babel-execute:scheme` gets executed, then the
result will not get inserted as a link, as that would require the results
type 'file', right?
>From the manual <https://orgmode.org/manual/Results-of-Evaluation.html>, it
seems to me that using the 'file' type is required to get the result
inserted as a link.

However, I can not see how the code does the following as explained in the
manual.

The manual <https://orgmode.org/manual/Results-of-Evaluation.html> states
(under Type/file):

> If ‘file’ header argument is missing, Org generates the base name of the
> output file from the name of the code block, and its extension from the ‘
> file-ext’ header argument. In that case, both the name and the extension
> are mandatory.
>
suggesting that a file gets written also when there is no :file header
argument.

But from the `and` condition here
<https://github.com/bzg/org-mode/blob/bd468136dd1a2172302b3ec980c5e6b6e327d683/lisp/ob-core.el#L820>
in `org-babel-execute-src-block`, it looks to me that a file is only
written when a :file argument is provided (via the `with-temp-file` that
follows within the 'when file ...').
Anyway, this I only found when trying to find out how the result gets
formatted as a link.

I guess to get the racket `Image` file-path to formatted correctly, it
would be preferable to only touch ob-scheme for that. In which case, I
think the 'result' under 'org-babel-result-cond' at the end of
'org-babel-execute:scheme' should get (re)formatted conditionally (when the
results is a racket image (link)).

So in the end, I conclude that maybe the advice as mentioned in my
'original' mail, might be already the 'cleanest' solution (and that it does
not cause any problem concerning a file getting written to disk, as
luckily, org does not seem to write files when no :file header argument is
given). Anyway, I am struggling to find out how to come up with an
alternative clean(er) solution.

[FR] Add support for racket images in org-babel

[dalanicolai]

Hello,

I am trying out racket  which seems to provide a
quite nice plotting package .
Also, it is easy to install and configure, easy to learn. and it has great
learning material.
It looks like a great simple (compared to common-lisp or clojure)
alternative to python
(so far for the enthusiasm).

I have not asked anywhere yet, but I do not know a 'standard org-mode' way
to make org-mode show the plot images. Racket creates a temp image file and
returns a string that includes the path to the file. The actual format of
the string is:

"\"#\""

I could create a patch for it, but I am not sure how to best implement it
(in a clean way).

Currently, I am simply using the following advice (while including in the
header ':results file'):

  (with-eval-after-load 'ob-scheme
> (defun ob-racket-advice (orig-fun  args)
>   (let ((result (print (apply orig-fun args
> (if (string-match "\"# (nth 1 (string-split result " " nil ">\""))
>   result)))
>
> (advice-add 'org-babel-execute:scheme :around #'ob-racket-advice))
>

however, it would be great if support could be added to ob-scheme itself.
I would be happy to do it, but as mentioned before I don't think I know how
to do it in the proper way. I would probably just add a condition around the
'result' in 'org-babel-execute:scheme' as follows:

  (org-babel-result-cond result-params
>(if (and (eq impl 'racket)
>  (string-match "\"# (nth 1 (string-split result " " nil ">\""))
>   result)
>(org-babel-scheme--table-or-string table)))
>

Thank you!

[BUG] demarcate block splits block even when outside of src-block

[dalanicolai]

 [9.5.4 (release_9.5.4 @ /usr/local/share/emacs/29.0.50/lisp/org/)]

When trying to create a new src-block via `M-x
org-babel-demarcate-block` immediately after a previous code block (only
empty lines in between), then the command behaves like when splitting a
src-block (inserting an #+end_src first, followed by a #+begin_src).

However, as the point is outside of the source block, according to the
docstring of the command, a new source block should be created.

As a comment, normally when creating a new source block, Emacs prompts
for the source block type. However, currently, when used as mentioned
here, the command automatically sets the type (because it tries to
split). I would say that is convenient behavior, so that effectively
only the order of the inserted lines should get reversed.

In any case, thanks for the amazing work!

Re: What's up with ob-template.el? It seems heavily outdated

[dalanicolai]

Hi Bastien,

For sure I am happy to contribute it to (w)org.

I have very recently assigned copyright to the FSF for sketch-mode
<https://github.com/dalanicolai/sketch-mode> (it is currently on
https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/).
So do I have to assign separately again for this contribution? (Would be no
problem of course, just a question)

Anyway, I will already attach the patch. For some reason my Emacs (i.e.
Spacemacs) also reformats the table with
supported languages in index.org. So, maybe you can check if it is
correctly formatted. As I updated this long ago,
it would take me too long to look again at this now (so therefore, I simply
added a link to a mail from Eric Schulte
with some more info), but it should be better than the current info, and a
very acceptable (re)start.

Regards,
Daniel

Re: Advice for new feature 'image block` for new `sketch-mode` package

Also, I already looked at the org source to see how to add e.g. a
#+BEGIN_IMAGE block,
but I found the 'api' quite overwhelming. So I am hoping that some
experienced developer
could maybe give some advice/explain (for) how to approach/implement this.

Advice for new feature 'image block` for new `sketch-mode` package

[dalanicolai]

Hello,

I am developing a new package for quickly sketching svg images, (see, and
try
out, sketch-mode at https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/). With the package, I can
already quickly create a sketch and subsequently quickly save it and insert
a
link in some org-mode buffer (using the `b` transient suffix). Also I can
quickly insert some image (using the `I` suffix), but then unfortunately the
image will not get saved.

As svg is just xml, for small sketches I would prefer to insert directly
the xml
into the org-buffer within an image block, in which I can quickly toggle
showing
the image using `C-c C-c` (or `org-toggle-inline-images`). Also, exporting
such
xml should work perfectly fine when exporting to e.g. html.

I guess a normal source block is not suitable, because I would like to
create
the image overlay directly within the block. I am happy to (help)
implement(ing)
such a feature, but I thought it would be wise to first discuss and
'enquire'
for suggestions here.

Thanks you!

Build agenda asynchronously

[dalanicolai]

There was a question on Stack-Exchange if it would be possible to build
*org-agenda* asynchronously. I could not quickly find any good answers
neither in the mailing lists nor anywhere else.

As I assume this will be a quite helpful feature for some more users, I am
notifying you about it here.

The question with its answer can be found at

Because of the image in that repo the link does not jump exactly to the

However, when starting from ob-template.el
,
which is advised in the section "develop support for new languages" in
the org-mode
docs , it
seems that the code within that template file is heavily incorrect.

I can write a whole list with "bugs", but it already starts with most of
the params in the `org-babel-execute` function getting processed
incorrectly.

So I am wondering, am I missing something here? Or is this documentation
just heavily outdated?

Would you be interested in some updated ob-template.el file?

You have any experience with adding language support? Then how did you
approach it?

Also, I could not really find a (recent) bug-report about this issue. So
nobody mentioned this before?

I can already find my way, using edebug and checking out other ob-...el
files. I am just interested in (and surprised about) the current situation
and why it is like that. And I am wondering if maybe there is some more
recent documentation available.

Thanks!

Re: contact management in emacs

[dalanicolai]

I think all packages fulfill your requirements. So I would say it depends
on how many contacts you are managing. I have some experience with
org-contacts, and I find it very convenient and straightforward. It is also
very convenient to just use org-mode, i.e. a plain text file, for your
contacts. Every contact is a headline and you can add any kind of property
or tag etc. you want. Also anniversaries get added to the Agenda. You can
very easily jump to the right contact, using imenu or swoop/swiper (I use
`SPC j i ` in Spacemacs. So if you have less than say 300 contacts (I have
really no clue about the number of contacts that will still work smoothly),
then depending on how die-hard you are, I would recommend to start with
org-contacs. You can use org-vcard to import contacts, and org-vcard claims
to support exports too but I did not test that yet.
Anyway, I think you won't loose much time with setting up org-contacts and
from then you can slowly check out and study the other options.

I do not use Emacs for email yet, but org-contacts claims to support most
of Emacs its mail-readers.

If you enjoy tweaking your setup and study a little more then maybe
directly use BBDB or EBDB. EBDB's goal is to be a modern BBDB and I guess
the main developer does a very nice job. I have no experience with these
databases, because I think they are overkill (currently) for my usecase.

Simple org-publish configuration example in manual does not work

[dalanicolai]

Hello, sorry for sending this email directly, but currently sending mail
from Emacs does not work correctly.


I was trying out the org-publishing functionality, but I found that
the first example in the documentation given at
https://orgmode.org/manual/Simple-example.html#Simple-example
does not work. When I try to publish the project it errors with the
following message

org-publish-file: No publishing function chosen

So I figured that I should add a :publishing-function and I remembered
reading earlier in the documnetation,
i.e. at https://orgmode.org/manual/Publishing-action.html#Publishing-action
org-html-publish-to-html that org uses the default publishing-function

org-publish-org-to-html

But when trying to publish using that function then Emacs errors with
the message

org-publish-file: Symbol’s function definition is void:
org-publish-org-to-html

I have found the following error report from 17 Mar 2013, reporting
exactly the same error (and a reply with the solution)
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-03/msg01221.html

It would be great if these two small point in the manual, which is
otherwise great, could
get updated.

1. add the required :publishing-function keyword to the documentation (with
the correct function value)
2. change the name of the default function from org-publish-org-to-html ->
*org-html-publish-to-html*

Thank you!

Daniel Nicolai

Improve formatting and documentation inline source block [9.3 (release_9.3 @ /usr/local/share/emacs/28.0.50/lisp/org/)]

This bug report contains two requests/bugs about inline source blocks
namely:

1. Inline source blocks don't get formatted/propertized within
org buffers.
2. Different from ordinary source blocks, the inline source blocks
require the [:exports code] argument to get exported. I think it would
be useful to mention it explicitly in [section 15.2 of the
documentation](https://orgmode.org/manual/Structure-of-Code-Blocks.html),
because it is somewhat unexpected behavior (compared to ordinary source
blocks).

To test it just open an org buffer and enter e.g. the following line
`test src_emacs-lisp{(server-start)} test`
then run `M-x org-html-export-as-html`. Compare output to that of
`test src_emacs-lisp[:exports code]{(server-start)} test`

Bug: org-html-export-as-html changes numbered sections to number one exclusively [9.3.7 (9.3.7-elpa @ /home/dalanicolai/.my_emacs.d/elpa/org-20200602/)]

[dalanicolai]

WHAT HAPPENS:

When exporting a simple org-buffer, org-html-export-as-html, containing
text as follows:

1. hello
bye

2. ola
ciao

Then the numbers get changed to 1's exclusively, so that the html file
is rendered in the browser as follows:



   1. Hello

Deoi

   1.  Ola

Daag

EXPECTED TO HAPPEN:

Numbers get exported to 1, 2 etc.

please mention the blog-admin package for blogging with nikola

[dalanicolai]

Hi,

Please mention the blog-admin 
package for blogging with Nikola on the worg site. I chose to blog with
Nikola because I found on the worg site
 that is support org-mode. It
took me a lot of time and effort to finally stumble upon this simple
solution to maintain my blog from emacs. Anyway, mentioning this package
can persuade people to blog with Nikola, and it can save them a lot of time
searching for easy good solutions (Eventually I actually, redundantly,
started coding a similar extension myself). Thank's a lot! Keep up the
great work :)

Best regards,
Daniel Nicolai

mathematica.el in org-plus-contrib outdated (i.e. command MathematicaScript became wolframscript in new version)

[dalanicolai]

As stated in the subject of this e-mail, the command MathematicaScript
became wolframscript in the newer versions of mathematica. To make
ob-mathematica.el work again with newer versions of mathematica simply
replace all occurences of MathematicaScript with wolframscript in that file.

An extra comment. Wolfram made it's Wolfram Engine freely available

for developers. And I guess it can be used to, for example, produce
Mathematica Plots (or graphics) in the jupyter notebooks using the Wolfram
Language kernel for jupyter
 (I am not
sure because I have a licensed Mathematica version and I guess my jupyter
is using that kernel to get the graphics). Would be great to have such
functionality working in org-mode (with-babel). Unfortunately I am not a
developer. But someone else might like the idea too.
