Hi All,
I'm working on using org mode for my PhD thesis. I'd like to do this in one
large file where each headline is a single chapter. Naturally in a thesis
there needs to be a lot of front matter: title page, abstract, signature
page, etc. Right now, I'm doing this with something like:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#+begin_latex
\doublespacing
\pagenumbering{roman}
\maketitle
\makeapproval
\begin{abstract}
blah blah blah....
\end{abstract}
\tableofcontents
\pagestyle{thesis}
\newpage
\pagenumbering{arabic}
#+end_latex
* Test Chapter 1
This is a test.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I include the actual contents of my abstract, this preliminary material
section (the #+begin ... #+end block) is rather large. I'd like to be able
to put this material into a headline so that I could collapse it - but I
don't want this headline exported as content of the main document.
In other words, is there a property or tag that I can add to a headline that
causes LaTeX export to ignore the fact that it is a headline (i.e. \chapter,
\section, \subsection, etc.), but still export its contents? Something
like:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* This is just preliminary material :prelim:
#+begin_latex
\doublespacing
\pagenumbering{roman}
\maketitle
\makeapproval
\begin{abstract}
blah blah blah....
\end{abstract}
\tableofcontents
\pagestyle{thesis}
\newpage
\pagenumbering{arabic}
#+end_latex
* Test Chapter 1
This is a test.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
