I want to contribute back to org-mode, but I don't want to manually modify orgcard.txt :-) I will write a script that can parse the orgcard.tex file and pull out the goodies that we want in the orgcard.txt file. Regardless of whether that script is accepted into the org-mode base, I can run the script when there's an update to orgcard.tex, then submit the updated orgcard.txt. I should have a quick & dirty script (Perl) done by next week.
