Hi Nicolas, is there any way to make the exporter recognize non-org comment-syntax in an org-buffer?
When writing emails with outorg, I often have these message-mode quotes in the outorg-edit-buffer which have outcommented multiple times and therefore remain as message-mode comments). They do not cause any problems for editing, since outorg/org-mode treats them like normal text, but formatting is lost when exporting: ,---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | > Thorsten Jolitz <tjol...@gmail.com> writes: | > | >> I like to use rebox2 and put boxes in emails and source-file | >> comment-sections, but when I use outorg on such an message-mode or elisp | >> buffer and try to export it, I always get 'Args out of range' errors: | > | > The following line | > | > | org-element--parse-objects: Args out of range: 315, 316 | > | > is a table row in Org syntax, so it will not be exported as you expect | > it to.

The same thing happens when I use outorg with e.g. emacs-lisp or picolisp. Section that are outcommented twice or more like ,----------- | ;; ;; Comment | ;; ;; part `----------- are seen in the outorg-edit-buffer like ,----------- | ;; Comment | ;; part `----------- and lose their formatting when exported. -- cheers, Thorsten
