Greetings. Pardon my ignorance, but I'm having trouble understanding some
elisp syntax.
Some time ago I asked on this list how to use the "<...<TAB>" shortcut to
insert a source-code block in upper case (as: BEGIN_SRC, etc.),
Suvayu Ali responded with:
(add-to-list 'org-structure-template-alist
'("S" "#+BEGIN_SRC ?\n\n#+END_SRC" "<src lang=\"?\">\n\n</src>"))
and this indeed worked just fine (thanks, Suvayu!).
Lately most of the source blocks I've been using have been R source blocks, so
I thought I'd just modify the elisp above to stick the string " R" after the
"begin_src" string.
Here's an example of something I tried:
(add-to-list 'org-structure-template-alist
'("r" "#+begin_src R\n\n#+end_src" "<src lang=\"R\">\n\n</src>"))
The first part of this works OK; i.e., I do get:
#+begin_src R
#+end_src
but Emacs complains about an "org-mode fontification error" and doesn't give me
an executable R source-code block. I've tried numerous minor variations on
this theme, but I don't think it's worth wasting your time by listing all of
the thrashing I've done. The solution is probably obvious to people with a
decent understanding of elisp.
If you have any suggestions, please send them to me. Thanks.
