Not sure whether this will help but these are basically just strings with text properties. See (info (elisp) Text Properties in Strings) I should have added: o You can use substring-no-properties on a string to just get the sequence of characters it consists of without its text properties[fn:1] --8---cut here---start-8--- (setq s #(25% coin toss in SuperCollider 0 30 (face bold))) (substring-no-properties s) == 25% coin toss in SuperCollider --8---cut here---end---8--- o You can similarly use (buffer-substring-no-properties START END) if you want to extract a substring out of a buffer without its text properties. Footnotes: [fn:1] Note that I had to modify the properties a bit to make it into a string that the lisp reader could grok. When you print out the element, you get a shorthand representation of it: #(25% coin toss in SuperCollider 0 30 (:parent #2)) indicating the parent, but #2 is not legal as far as the lisp reader is concerned - it is just a useful shorthand for humans; however when you map your function on what org-element-parse-buffer returns, calling substring-no-properties on it before you print it (or whatever else you want to do to it) will do the right thing (modulo bugs of course).

[O] Extract source code /with/ captions
I'm working on a set of Beamer presentations with a bunch of source code blocks. I would like to collect all the blocks into one text file per presentation, but I also need the captions and ideally a numeric index. That is, I'm *not* looking for the normal behavior of org-babel-tangle, which assembles only the source code itself without any other identifying information (on the assumption that the tangled file should be OK to be compiled). These code blocks are not part of one big program. They are examples that workshop participants should run interactively. So, for instance, where the slideshow and handouts would have a code block identified like so: Listing 3: Compare geometric vs. band-limited waves, aurally. ... a student should be able to open up the corresponding code file and find: // Listing 3: Compare geometric vs. band-limited waves, aurally. Just wondering if anyone has done this. If not, I'm sure I can hack something up but it would save some time if somebody has some code lying around. Thanks in advance -- hjh
Re: [O] Extract source code /with/ captions
I think I have done something like that before. What I did was make it so
each code block would be written out to a file, e.g.
course-notes/script-%d.py and a link would be put in the exported pdf right
after that block. I do not know how you could get the captions though.
In the header I have this:
#+LATEX_HEADER: \newcommand{\LaunchBinary}[2]{%
#+LATEX_HEADER: % #1: layer name,
#+LATEX_HEADER: % #2: link text
#+LATEX_HEADER: \leavevmode%
#+LATEX_HEADER: \pdfstartlink attr{/C [0.9 0 0] /Border [0 0 2]} user {
#+LATEX_HEADER: /Subtype /Link
#+LATEX_HEADER: /A
#+LATEX_HEADER: /F
#+LATEX_HEADER: /DOS (#1)
#+LATEX_HEADER: /Mac (#1)
#+LATEX_HEADER: /Unix (#1)
#+LATEX_HEADER:
#+LATEX_HEADER: /S /Launch
#+LATEX_HEADER:
#+LATEX_HEADER: } #2%
#+LATEX_HEADER: \pdfendlink%
#+LATEX_HEADER: }
Then this code for the export. (I pasted it from my build file, so there
may be an extra parenthesis at the end)
(setq counter 0)
(defun ox-mrkup-filter-src-block (text back-end info)
(setq counter (+ counter 1))
(let ((filename (format course-notes-scripts/script-%d.py counter)))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert (mapconcat 'identity (butlast (cdr (split-string text \n
t))) \n))
(write-region (point-min) (point-max) filename))
(format %s
\\LaunchBinary{%s}{Open the python script (%s).}
text filename filename)))
(let ((org-export-filter-src-block-functions '(ox-mrkup-filter-src-block)))
(org-latex-export-to-latex async subtreep visible-only body-only
'(:with-author t
:with-date t
:with-title t
:with-timestamps t
:with-todo-keywords t
:with-toc nil
maybe that is close to what you want?

Can you make the 'caption' into a heading? If so, then ':comments org' will include it in output when you tangle. Or maybe ':comments link' or ':comments both' and some post-processing? HTH, Chuck
