[O] Problems with Org-mode & Minted
Hi all Org-mode gurus, I am trying to use the minted package with Org-mode to generate a big slides deck containing java code & XML code listtings... It's almost OK execpted that I am unaable to set any option to adapt the listings to my needs.. As a consequence the listings come in raw excepted the language attribute set accordingly to my config and the theme as specified in my config file (spacemacs) I tried to specify a couple of options but they are simply ignored and are not exported... excerpt from my .spacemacs file (setq org-latex-listings 'minted org-latex-packages-alist '(("" "minted")) org-latex-pdf-process '("pdflatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f" "pdflatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f") org-latex-minted-options '(("frame" "lines") ("linenos=true") ("fontsize=\scriptsize") ) ) I tried already with org-export-latex-minted-options but does not work .. This a listing as generated in my .tex file output from org-mode export \begin{minted}[]{java} public class ComplexLayoutDemo extends JFrame { public ComplexLayoutDemo(){ JPanel main_panel = (JPanel)getContentPane(); main_panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout()); JPanel north = new JPanel(); north.add(new JLabel("Texte au nord")); JPanel south = new JPanel(); south.setLayout(new FlowLayout()); south.add(new JLabel("Autre texte")); south.add(new JLabel("texte au sud")); main_panel.add("North",north); main_panel.add("South",south); pack(); setVisible(true); } \end{minted} As already stated I can't see no minted options... I would like to shorten the font size with tiny or script size and may be activate frames around listings J.MOLIERE - Mentor/J

[O] Problems with org-mode
Hi I have the following problem with org-mobile: If I want to push my org-files, I get the message that I should set my org-directory. This directory is set in my .emacs file, so I don't know why I have to set it again. If I set it with set-variable -- org-directory and then put D:/Daten/org I get the error message set-variable: Value `d:/Daten/org/' does not match type directory of org-directory I just downloaded the newest version of org-mode and use Emacs 23.2.1 on a Windows 7 machine.

Re: [O] Problems with Org-Mode export
Another bit of information about this: if I remove: :session *R* from the line starting with: #+BABEL then I don't see any error message. OTOH, this isn't much of a workaround, because without a "session", the values of the variables are not preserved between source-code blocks, so that, for instance, the combination: x <- c(1, 3, 5) defined in one block and q <- c(x, 8, 8) defined in another block raises an R error ('x' is not defined when the assignment to 'q' is made). Also, in grasping at straws, I've tried renaming the R session, as: ... :session mTest (on the theory that the '*' is used for emphasis in Org-Mode markup and might, therefore, somehow confuse things). That didn't help. -- Mike > >From: Michael Hannon >To: Org-Mode List >Sent: Friday, September 16, 2011 10:50 AM >Subject: [O] Problems with Org-Mode export > > >Greetings.

[O] Problems with Org-Mode export
Greetings. I've been having problems lately in exporting Org-Mode source-code documents to HTML and/or PDF. I'm running Org-Mode 7.7 with Emacs 23 on 64-bit linux (Fedora 15). I've appended a document that exhibits at least some of the problem. The problems are similar to the problem described at: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/45316 and can *sometimes* be circumvented by executing org-reload. In the particular example shown below, the HTML export works as expected, but the PDF export fails with message: org-export-latex-preprocess: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil By the way, everything worked fine in the example until I added the last source block: #+begin_src R x #+end_src I tried using what I take to be the latest version of Org-Mode: Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.290.g65d05) but that only made things worse. I tried an HTML export with this version, and it generated a horrendous-looking message that begins with: org-babel-R-evaluate: Wrong number of arguments: #[(session body result-type result-params column-names-p row-names-p) Æ=}... followed by a bunch of stuff containing enough non-printing characters that it's hard to reproduce in email, and ending with: ...org-mode/lisp/ob-R.elc" . 9734)], 5 I'd welcome any help/advice that anybody can provide.
